It's not that Shu Yuwei looks down on Pei Yining, and it's not that your dignified eldest lady of Pei's family has no money. As a result, she gave her future father-in-law a few pieces of clothes as a gift. Since Pei Yining gave her such an opportunity, she naturally didn't want to let it go.
But this is just right, so as to highlight Chen Wanjiao's goodness, and let Jiang's father and mother see who Chen Wanjiao and Pei Ning are a qualified daughter-in-law.
"Miss Pei, we all know that you are from a famous family. You will definitely not be stingy when you take action. The things you give to your uncle must be good things. Take them out and let us appreciate them."
Pei Ning looked at her with a half-smile, this person was staring at her tonight, right? Shu Yuwei looked back at her without showing weakness, she was fighting with Pei Yining tonight, what's the matter.
People wanted to embarrass themselves, so Pei Yining naturally wanted to satisfy her, and said with a light smile, "It's nothing, it's just a set of tea sets. Uncle Jiang likes to drink tea. The tea set is the best match for the tea, so I bought a set for my uncle. , I hope my uncle likes it."
Shu Yuwei hummed lightly. Sure enough, the price of purple clay pots on the market today is only a few hundred to a few thousand. What is it worth? It's just a plaything.
"Miss Pei, what kind of purple clay pot is it? I'm curious if you can show it to us all." Shu Yuwei said with a smile, but met Jiang Yan's cold eyes, she turned her head and pretended not to see it, she was I feel that my eldest aunt is very powerful and has a tough temper, but the eldest aunt is already married and does not live together. At most, she will say a few words when we meet next time, what does it matter.
"This is a gift from Yining to my uncle, and it is Yining's affection for my uncle." Jiang Yan said with a smile, "Uncle, Chenxi is a good girlfriend, and she is so clear about your preferences. , still thinking of you all the time, which is rare."
Jiang's father stretched his brows and nodded in agreement with Jiang Yan's words, "They are all filial children." No matter what he thought about Pei Yining in his heart, he still had to do his best to save face at this moment.
Since someone offered to watch it, and the others were looking at the show, Pei Yining would naturally not refuse, Jiang Chenxi got up to get the purple clay pot when he saw it.
The purple clay pot is packed in an exquisite box. The packaging of the box alone looks very high. There is no such elaborate packaging for thousands of dollars in the market. When she saw this packaging, Shu Yuwei's heart was stunned. However, it is also possible that Pei Yining felt that the purple clay pot was not high-end enough, so he deliberately bought an expensive box for packaging, so there is no such thing as buying caskets and returning pearls.
"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?" Shu Yuwei said.
Jiang Chenxi put the box in front of Jiang's father. Since it was a birthday gift for Jiang's father, he naturally wanted to open it in person.
Father Jiang opened the box, and his eyes lit up when he saw the purple sand teapot in the box. He loves to drink tea, and naturally he also has research on tea sets. At a glance, it can be seen that this set of tea sets is quite old, I am afraid it is a antique.
"Old Jiang, this is a good thing." An old man sitting next to Jiang's father said with a smile. He is a real antique lover and knows the price of this tea set better than Jiang's father.
"Before Boya auction house auctioned a set of Yixing purple clay pots thirty years ago, it should be this set, right?" The old man asked Pei Yining with a smile as he stroked his beard.
Pei Yining said with a smile, "This uncle has good eyesight." This is an admission.
Shu Yuwei was stunned, what, this set of purple clay pots was bought from an auction? That price...
"Lao Jiang, when will you use this set of treasures to make a cup of tea for our old guys?" This old man is also a wonderful person. He only mentioned the origin of this set of purple clay pots, but not the price. Pei Yining earns enough face and won't let others think that Pei Yining is deliberately showing off his wealth.
But needless to say, everyone knows it in their hearts, and it will definitely not be less than six figures. Such an expensive gift is probably the only one.
The Jiang family is the first of a scholarly family. To put it bluntly, it doesn't actually have much money. It is definitely not enough to say that a wealthy family is a family of a hundred years. It has some wealth, but it costs hundreds of thousands to buy a set of tea sets like this. Things are definitely not going to be done.
Originally, Pei Yining planned to send this set of tea sets as ordinary tea sets, but who would have thought that Shu Yuwei would make trouble, and she had nothing else to replace, so she only needed to put the teapot on top.
Father Jiang smiled, even though he felt that this set of tea sets could not be collected, it was too precious, but with so many people here, they couldn't refute Pei Yining's face, so he smiled and said, "I can't bear it, I want to keep it, or else I don't have to be heartbroken when I bump into it."
The others also smiled and understood that if they had obtained such an expensive gap, they would be reluctant to drink tea.
When the banquet was over, Pei Yining and Haohao followed Jiang Chenxi back to Jiang's house. This is what Jiang's father asked, obviously he has something to say.
Father Jiang put the purple clay tea set on the table, and said slowly, "Yining, take this set of tea sets back, and I'll take care of your thoughts."
There was a gentle smile on Pei Yining's face, "Uncle Jiang, I bought this for you on purpose, you can take it, even if I take it back, it's useless."
"I'll take the clothes and supplements you bought, but this tea set is really too expensive, you can take it back." Father Jiang refused to accept it.
Mother Jiang also agreed, "Yeah, we will accept other things, but we really can't accept this set of tea sets." Who would they be if they were accepted? Coveting other women's money? It sounds good or not.
Pei Yining looked at Jiang Chenxi and wanted him to help him speak. Jiang Chenxi said, "Mom and Dad, this is Yining's filial piety to you, so you can accept it. Moreover, the daughter-in-law here gives birthday gifts to the father-in-law and mother-in-law. What is precious or not, it is all a matter of heart, don't you think? Yining will give you a few worthless bowls next year, and you will dislike it?" He said jokingly.
Mother Jiang glared at Jiang Chenxi, did she mean that? Then again, is this comparable? It's not a few hundred dollars, it's not a few thousand dollars, it's hundreds of thousands. Hundreds of thousands of what concept? You can buy a house in third- and fourth-tier cities. Can they accept such a precious thing? Don't say that a daughter-in-law is not a daughter-in-law, the two of them are not married yet, and even if they are married, they can't accept it.
This is actually because the family background of the two families is quite different. Mother Jiang was afraid that she would be gossiped about accepting this gift, saying that they were just coveting the money of Pei Yining's family, so she agreed to associate Jiang Chenxi with Pei Yining.
Anyway, no matter what Jiang Chenxi said, Jiang's father and mother refused to accept the tea set. In the end, Jiang Chenxi had no choice but to take the tea set back.
On the way back, Haohao was already asleep in the back seat. Pei Yining looked out the window, wondering what he was thinking. Jiang Chenxi smiled and looked at her, "Still feeling sorry for my parents not accepting the tea set?"
Pei Yining shook her head, "That's not true, I just think I didn't choose a good gift." If she chose a moderately priced gift, it might not be the case.
Hearing this, Jiang Chenxi comforted her in a warm voice, "Yining, you have done a good job, don't force yourself." Jiang Chenxi has seen how Pei Yining has treated her parents in the past two years. To be honest, even he may not be as careful and thoughtful as Pei Yining. No matter who his parents are, anyone who has a headache and is running up and down is Pei Yining, but his son looks more like an outsider.
"If you really feel bad about it, just buy a normal tea set for my dad another day." Jiang Chenxi saw that she was still struggling, and said, Pei Yining had no choice but to think about it, this tea set, Jiang's father Mother Jiang would not accept it no matter what.
However, this incident can be regarded as a lesson, reminding Pei Yining to think more about the actual situation of the two families when giving gifts in the future. At this time, Pei Yining did not know that Jiang Chenxi's net worth was actually higher than hers. and.
Jiang Chenxi is a low-key person. Even his parents don't know how much his family is. Jiang's father knows that his son has some talent in finance and has made some investments. After all, the decoration of the house was spent by Jiang Chenxi. Not luxurious, but each price is not affordable for their wages. But it's not clear how much Jiang Chenxi earns. It's not that Jiang Chenxi doesn't want to tell his parents, but that Jiang's father and mother feel that there is no need to know. The two of them have their own wages, and the wages are comparable to the average person. The above is a lot, it is enough, and Jiang Chenxi does not need to pay.
Jiang Chenxi has actually handed over all his bank cards to Pei Yining, which means that Jiang Chenxi's net worth Pei Yining should be the most clear, but Pei Yining is a big heart, after Jiang Chenxi gave her the bank card , she just put it in the drawer of the bedside table, and never went to check how much Jiang Chenxi had, but when Jiang Chenxi gave it, she only thought that Pei Yining would see it, so she didn't mention it. Jiang Chenxi later found out that Pei Yining hadn't checked it at all, but at that time he wanted to see how long it would take Pei Yining to find out, and he didn't remind her to look.
One didn't mention it, the other didn't look at it, and the final result was that Pei Yining still didn't know that the person he was looking for was actually a big local tyrant.
After Jiang's father's birthday, Pei Yining never saw Shu Yuwei again. What Shu Yuwei targeted at her on her birthday was left behind by her.
But just when Pei Yining was about to forget about it, she met Shu Yuwei again, and she was still with Chen Wanjiao.
"Miss Pei, I didn't expect to meet you here." Chen Wanjiao took the initiative to greet Pei Yining with a gentle and gentle look.
Seeing Pei Yining, Shu Yuwei looked slightly displeased, "Wanjiao, what did you tell her. People have money, but she was in the limelight at her uncle's birthday banquet and changed her law to show off her wealth in front of us. Woolen cloth."
Hearing this, Pei Yining's expression lightened, she glanced at Shu Yuwei lightly, and then looked at Chen Wanjiao, "Miss Chen, long time no see."
Chen Wanjiao nodded with a smile, "Miss Pei, I have a few words to tell you alone. I don't know if it is convenient?"
Pei Yining nodded and stepped aside, Chen Wanjiao following behind.
Chen Wanjiao's face was a little apologetic, "Well, Miss Pei, I'm really sorry about the last birthday banquet. I'll say sorry to you on behalf of Yuwei, she was targeting you like that because of me." Afterwards, she listened to Shu Yuwei. After talking about what happened that day, I always felt sorry for Pei Yining, but couldn't find a chance to say it.
"I know, it's not your fault." Pei Yining said gently, she didn't blame Chen Wanjiao for this.
"Miss Pei, I have started a blind date recently. I think I will start a new relationship soon and meet my own happiness." Chen Wanjiao said softly.
"Then congratulations." Pei Yining sincerely wished.
"Thank you. You and Chenxi should be getting married soon, right? Is the date fixed? If the date is fixed, remember to let me know." At this point, Chen Wanjiao suddenly paused and smiled at Pei Yining, "Miss Pei, you Shouldn't you mind if I go to the wedding?"
"Of course not, I welcome you to my wedding with Chen Xi." Pei Yining said, she could see that Chen Wanjiao was sincerely wishing her. In fact, Chen Wanjiao is a very honest suitor. She likes Jiang Chenxi, she never hides it, but after being rejected by Jiang Chenxi, she didn't use any means to get Jiang Chenxi, but chose to turn around and leave.
"Actually, to be honest, Miss Pei, I never thought that Chenxi would like you. I thought he liked a gentle woman." Like her.
"But I can see that Chen Xi really likes you, to the point that there is no room for others to intervene." If not, she would not let go easily, even if there was a glimmer of hope, she would not let go. After all, she never thought that she would like someone so deeply and for so long.
"Miss Pei, to be honest, I envy you very much." A trace of envy appeared on Chen Wanjiao's face, "I can meet someone I like, and that person just happens to like you too."
"In the future, you will also meet someone who truly loves you." Pei Yining said sincerely.
Chen Wanjiao smiled slightly, "Thank you for your blessing. When I find my true love, I will definitely invite you and Chenxi to our wedding."
"Okay, then I wish you an early find."
When Pei Yining left, Shu Yuwei came over. "Wanjiao, what did you tell her just now?"
Chen Wanjiao smiled lightly, "It's nothing, just chatted a few words, Yuwei, I know you're doing it for my own good, but you should stop targeting her in the future, the person Chenxi likes has never been me, it has nothing to do with her.
Shu Yuwei disagreed with this, "What does it mean? She stole your boyfriend. To put it bluntly, she is a shameless little mistress."
"Yuwei, she's not. Strictly speaking, it was me who intervened between her and Chenxi. I really robbed her of her lover. Chenxi never liked me, even if it was only a little bit." Before meeting Jiang Chenxi, Jiang Chenxi had already fallen in love with a woman named Pei Yining.
A bit of sadness flashed in Chen Wanjiao's eyes, Shu Yuwei heard the words, sighed, and patted her shoulder, "Forget it, a man who doesn't love you, what do you want him to do? Didn't your mother introduce you recently? A blind date? Have you met? What do you think of that person?" Not wanting to make Chen Wanjiao sad, Shu Yuwei changed the subject.
"It's good, he's a very gentleman. I've met him a few times, and it feels good. If possible, I'll keep in touch." Chen Wanjiao said.
"Wanjiao, do you like that blind date?" Shu Yuwei became interested.
Chen Wanjiao raised her head slightly and looked at the sky in the distance, "Is this important?" Now she just wants to find someone who loves her and loves her, and spends her life with him.
Shu Yuwei frowned, "Of course it's important, it's someone who wants to spend a lifetime with you. If you don't like it, how can you spend a lifetime with someone?"
"Then I will try my best to like him. During these few contacts, he has been very good to me. If he can always be good to me in the future, I think it should be an easy thing to like him." Chen Wanjiao said.
At this moment, Chen Wanjiao really wanted to get along with that man and find her own happiness, but she never expected that things would change like that, which changed her life from now on.
Although Shu Yuwei is a bit bitter and mean, she is very kind to Chen Wanjiao. It is also very uncomfortable to see her like this. At the same time, she also knows in her heart that Chen Wanjiao has not let go of Jiang Chenxi yet.
In fact, from Jiang Chenxi's attitude towards Pei Yining, it can be seen that there is really no way between the two of them to get involved in a third person. Even if Chen Wanjiao can't let go, she can only suffer. So to persuade her not to give up and try her best, Shu Yuwei couldn't say anything.
Once said, Chen Wanjiao also did it, and the last person to be injured must be Chen Wanjiao. Chen Wanjiao was her best friend, she didn't want to see her hurt, she didn't want to see her sad, if Chen Wanjiao could really let go of Jiang Chenxi after that, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"Forget it, don't mention Jiang Chenxi, it's too heartbreaking to mention it. By the way, I bought two tickets for tomorrow's movie. Do you have time to watch a movie with me?"
Chen Wanjiao smiled apologetically, "I can't do it tomorrow, I'll make an appointment tomorrow."
"Is that the blind date?"
Chen Wanjiao nodded. Hearing this, Shu Yuwei blinked ambiguously, "Yes, yes, let's go, don't forget to tell me when you have good news."
Chen Wanjiao smiled slightly.
**
After Jiang's father's birthday, Haohao went to his hometown with Duan Ling.
"Haohao, you'll see your grandparents in a while, are you happy?" Duan Ling asked.
Haohao nodded and looked up at Duan Ling, "Will grandparents like me?"
"Grandpa and grandma will definitely like you," Duan Ling said affirmatively. Since his parents knew that he had another child, they had been wanting to see Haohao, but he refused.
Knowing that he was going to take Haohao home this time, the old couple didn't know how happy they were. Two days earlier, they made two calls a day, urging them to go back. This morning alone, he received three calls, asking them if they had arrived. Did you get on the plane? No, just got off the plane, the phone came in again.
"Mom and Dad, Haohao and I have already come out of the airport, um, right now, take a taxi home, you don't have to pick it up, we take a taxi by ourselves, yes. Haohao should have nothing to avoid. Wait, I will ask. Duan Ling moved the phone away and asked Haohao, "Haohao, have you eaten anything that will cause you allergies?"
Haohao shook his head. "Well, I've already asked, he's not allergic to food."
Duan Ling's hometown has long lived in the original place. Since his company abroad has improved, he has bought a new house for his parents. This time I came back to my new house.
As soon as he approached, he saw his dad standing at the door of the villa looking around, obviously waiting for them to come back. When he saw Duan Ling, his eyes immediately fell on the villain next to him, his eyes unblinking.
Duan Ling's father used to be an employee of a public institution, but he retired early because of poor health in the past two years.
Duan's father kept his eyes on Haohao, his cloudy eyes could not hide his excitement, he rubbed his hands together and said as gently as possible, "Are you Haohao?"
Haohao smiled and nodded, "Hello, grandpa, my name is Pei Hao, I'm seven years old this year."
"Good, good." Father Duan said three "good" words in a row, "Come in quickly, it's hot outside."
Duan Ling's mother was cooking in the kitchen when she heard the sound and quickly came out of the kitchen, "Oh, you are back, this is Haohao, come and let grandma take a good look."
Mother Duan just wanted to hug Haohao before she realized that the spatula was still in her hands, "Look, I forgot that I'm still cooking, Haohao, sit on the sofa with Dad for a while, there are candies on the table, If you have snacks, take what you want, and grandma will cook for you."
"Thank you grandma, grandma has worked hard." Haohao said narrowly, and with one sentence, he coaxed Mother Duan into a smile, and when she walked into the kitchen, the soles of her feet were full of wind.
Duan Ling looked at his parents' excited expression when they saw Haohao, and his eyes were slightly sour. If, if he hadn't left Pei Yining that year, would his parents have been able to enjoy family happiness? But it's too late to say that.
Mother Duan didn't know what Haohao likes to eat, so she made a large table of delicious food, and when eating, she desperately put vegetables in Haohao's bowl, "Haohao, eat vegetables, tell grandma what you like to eat, Grandma will give you a clip."
Haohao's bowl was already full of food, and his mouth was full. His cheeks were bulging. He chewed hard and said with difficulty, "Grandma, the food you cook is delicious, I like it very much. That's enough, I can't eat any more."
"Eat more if you like, these are all yours." Duan's mother was happier when she heard that her grandson liked to eat the meals she made.
Hearing this, Haohao had a bitter face. He couldn't eat it, but his mother said that he couldn't waste food.
Duan Ling saw Haohao's embarrassment, and took out some food from Haohao's play, "eat as much as you can, and dad who can't eat it."
Haohao nodded and tried his best to eat the rice in his bowl. He called Duan's father and Duan's mother his grandparents, and there was no pressure at all, but he never called Duan Ling's father. But Duan Ling also knew that without Pei Yining's permission, Haohao would not change his mouth, so he would never force him.
