Chapter 697: It's Hard to Give Gifts
Chen Feifei and Lei Qianlong are worthy of being a couple, and when she heard her fiancé's words, she immediately laughed softly: "Yes, yes, you won't come empty-handed, right?"
"Fei Fei!" Chen Rui frowned at his daughter, and greeted Xiao Ping with some embarrassment: "Xiao Xiao, this kid is usually used to messing around, and he just talks so brainily, don't take it to heart." ”
Now that everyone is familiar with each other, Lei Qianlong's usual lazy appearance is exposed, and he grinned at Chen Rui and said, "Uncle Chen, you can blame Fei Fei for mistake." Don't look at Brother Ping's inconspicuousness, but he is actually a super tyrant, and I heard that he bought a winery and a farm in France a while ago. The engagement is only once in a lifetime, how can you not knock on his bamboo pole?"
Chen Rui was very satisfied with Lei Qianlong's sentence "Engagement is once in a lifetime", so he just glanced at his future son-in-law with a smile and didn't say anything more.
Even Lei Yunlong took advantage of the fire to rob, and deliberately looked at Xiao Ping with a wicked smile and said, "You won't really come empty-handed, but I can tell you clearly, today is my engagement banquet with Qianlong." ”
"You are all my good friends, engagement is a big deal, how can you come here empty-handed?" Xiao Ping took out two boxes with a smile and put them in the hands of Li Qian and Chen Feifei respectively, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations, just a little bit of respect is not respectful." ”
The people present know a little bit about Xiao Ping, and they know that this young man is not simple, and they are also a little curious about what gifts he gives.
Lei Qianlong was the first to wait, and urged his fiancée loudly: "Feifei, open it up and take a look, let everyone see what this local tyrant is sending." ”
Chen Feifei answered, and couldn't wait to open the brocade box. I couldn't help but let out a joyful exclamation. Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Feifei took out the necklace. Drunken and muttered, "It's beautiful!"
Over there, Li Qian also took out her pearl necklace and looked at it carefully, although her performance was not as exaggerated as the eccentric Chen Feifei. But judging by the expression, it is clear that I also like this necklace very much.
What Xiao Ping regarded as a congratulatory gift was the two white necklaces he asked Xue Cheng to string. No matter how you compare them, the two necklaces are almost identical, as if they were twins, and it is only fitting that they are given to the Lei brothers as a congratulatory gift.
Lei An and Chen Rui were all secretly taken aback when they saw the congratulatory gift given by Xiao Ping. These three are all people who have seen the world, and they can naturally see how precious the two necklaces given by Xiao Ping are. Although I can't say the exact price, at least Zhilu Dao will definitely not be cheap.
Lei An and Chen Rui exchanged glances, and then asked Xiao Ping with a smile: "Xiao Xiao." These two necklaces are beautiful, I'm afraid they're not cheap, right?"
Lei Qianlong deserves to be a standard gentleman, and without waiting for Xiao Ping to speak, he said with full certainty: "Of course such a necklace is not cheap, according to my professional vision, each necklace is at least more than 500,000, am I right, Brother Xiao?"
Xiao Ping just laughed at Lei Qianlong's words. Xue Cheng also estimated the price of these necklaces, although the higher price was the two black pearl necklaces, but these two white pearls were not cheap. Together, there are nearly two million. However, Xiao Ping has always been generous to his friends, the Lei brothers are engaged, and giving gifts is also giving a piece, and he doesn't pay too much attention to the price or anything.
But Ryan was even more surprised when he heard his son's words. He saw that Xiao Ping was just smiling and silent. As far as I know, the price of these two necklaces must be higher than that of Thunder Qianlong. Originally, Lei An just wanted to express his closeness to Xiao Ping, but he didn't expect it to cost him a lot. This made Lei An regret a little, and he shouldn't have invited Xiao Ping to attend today's engagement banquet.
Li Qian's parents' vision is almost there. At first, I just thought this necklace was really beautiful. The necklace in Zhilu Dao is worth at least 500,000, and I can't help but be surprised. The couple is also honest people. They all felt a little uneasy about their daughter receiving such a heavy gift from Xiao Ping.
All three parents had similar thoughts and exchanged glances with each other. It was Lei An who spoke: "Xiao Xiao, this gift is too heavy, we can't accept it." ”
"Don't mind!" Xiao Ping hurriedly said: "I, Yunlong and Qianlong are all good buddies, they are engaged, I just send some small gifts to express my heart, how can I not accept it?"
Lei Qianlong is a master who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and when he heard this, he immediately nodded and said: "That's it, we have such a good relationship with Brother Xiao, what is it to get engaged and receive some gifts from him!"
"Qianlong, don't make a mess!" Lei An glared at his youngest son, and said to Xiao Ping with a pleasant face: "We have received your wishes, but this thing really can't be accepted." ”
Li Qian's father also chimed in: "Yes, it's too precious. It's not easy for anyone to make money now, so we can't ask for it. ”
Chen Rui and his wife also nodded approvingly, expressing their agreement with their in-laws' statement.
Seeing that the parents of the three parties had formed a united front, Xiao Ping couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head and said, "Elders, this is a piece of my heart, don't refuse." Although Qianlong is right, these two pearl necklaces are indeed not cheap, but they are just market prices. To tell you the truth, I've been in pearl farming for a long time, and these are the first pearls from the farm. It means a lot to me, it's not as expensive as you think!"
Hearing Xiao Ping say this, several parents relaxed a little, and only Chen Rui asked one more uneasily: "Is this really the case?"
Xiao Ping smiled, took out a pearl the size of a dragon's eye from his pocket, and said while showing it to everyone: "Look, this is also the last time I picked a piece, and I haven't had time to string it into a necklace yet." ”
Seeing the pearl in Xiao Ping's hand, several parents secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was Xiao Ping's own cultured pearls, he would definitely not be able to spend so much money. Looking at Li Qian and Chen Feifei, who received the necklace, they both liked this gift very much, and they finally stopped insisting that Xiao Ping take back the necklace.
Lei An coughed lightly and said, "Since that's the case, then we'll let the children accept it, Xie Luxie, Xiao Xiao!"
"Uncle Lei, you're welcome, I'm embarrassed to be like this. Xiao Ping smiled politely, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Other people's gifts are said to be expensive, but I want to say that the price is as cheap as possible, alas, this gift is really not easy to give!"
Seeing that his father finally agreed to accept the gift from his fiancée, Lei Qianlong, who was in a good mood, also smiled: "Brother Xiao is right, Dad, you don't have to be so polite to him." He's a local tyrant, he doesn't blink an eye when he gives such a gift!"
"Ha Lu Ha ......" Lei Qianlong's words caused a burst of laughter, and the atmosphere in the box became more harmonious.
After this little episode, the atmosphere became more harmonious, and even Li Qian and Chen Feifei, who met for the first time, began to whisper, and they seemed to be quite familiar.
Although the engagement banquet of the Lei brothers was not lively, let alone pompous, it was a happy scene. This is also what Xiao Ping appreciates the most, since the three families have become a family in the future, there should be such a family atmosphere.
After the engagement feast, Ryan went home alone. Lei Yunlong had to send Li Qian's family back to the hotel, and Lei Qianlong was naturally responsible for picking up Chen Feifei's family.
Before leaving, Chen Rui held Xiao Ping's hand and said, "Xiao Xiao, please bother more about the old man's body, thank you." ”
As the son of Chen Lao, Chen Rui of course knew that Xiao Ping was his father's health care doctor, and he also knew that Chen Lao's health had been getting better and better recently, so he would express his gratitude to Xiao Ping in person.
Xiao Ping smiled faintly and said, "Old Chen's body is very healthy, Uncle Chen, please rest assured." ”
Although this was the first time he had met Xiao Ping, Chen Rui had a good impression of this young man, and he nodded again and again and got into the car with a smile. After Lei Qianlong's car left, Xiao Ping also called a car to go back to the hotel to rest.
The next day was Sunday, Xiao Ping got up early in the morning, freshened up and went directly to Zizhuyuan. Before coming to the capital, Xiao Ping made an appointment with Long Wu, and he was going to check on Chen Lao's body this morning. After all, Xiao Ping still has the title of Chen Lao's health care doctor, and he rarely meets him in normal times, and if he doesn't go to the capital to meet the old man, it will be too incompetent.
Xiao Ping and Chen Lao made an appointment at nine o'clock in the morning, he arrived fifteen minutes early, and was taken by Long Wu to see Chen Lao as soon as he arrived.
When Xiao Ping met Mr. Chen, the old man was busy in the vegetable field. Since the last time he met Xiao Ping, Chen Lao really took his suggestion and opened up a small vegetable plot in Zizhu Garden and planted the vegetable seeds provided by Xiao Ping.
These seeds processed by the demon refining pot are naturally extraordinary, and the vegetables that grow are green and lovely, which makes people feel good when they see it, and often going to the vegetable garden has become the best choice for Chen Lao to relax. Today is Sunday, and Chen Lao has more free time than usual, so he naturally comes to the vegetable garden.
"Chen Laozao. Xiao Ping greeted Chen Lao from afar, and saw that he was busy loosening the soil in the field, so he picked up a hoe to help.
Old Chen stopped and watched Xiao Ping do farm work for a while, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, quite skilled!"
"I used to come from a hard background. Xiao Ping kept his hands on his hands, and said to Chen Lao while working: "I won't tell you that the start-up capital for my business was obtained by growing and buying vegetables by myself." ”
Chen Lao nodded appreciatively and said: "Self-reliance, it's very good! Although you have endured hardships back then, but now you are also a rich man, and at the engagement banquet yesterday, you gave a heavy gift! Fei Fei, this girl, came to me very late yesterday to show off her pearl necklace, and said that it was worth at least 500,000 yuan, and even I couldn't afford to give it!"
Knowing that this matter must not be hidden from Chen Lao, Xiao Ping said with a smile: "The pearls are cultivated by myself, and they are not worth a few dollars, just to have a happy occasion." The Lei brothers are all good friends of mine, and I didn't say anything about them when they got engaged. ”
Of course, Chen Lao didn't care about these little things, he just talked about it casually. Chen Lao really regards Xiao Ping as a junior, so he talks to him about these common things. If it were someone else, how could Mr. Chen be interested in saying this? (To be continued......
