Section 341 Gifts
In the last few days before the Spring Festival, Ye Zhiran received wedding gifts from friends in business and politics one after another.
Everyone knows that he does not accept gift money, so the gifts he gives are not of high value, but they have a certain commemorative significance.
The first gift came from Huang Yuwen, who sent a maple leaf from the West Mountain and a smooth stone.
The moral of the maple leaf is nothing more than the story of remembering the maple forest being bitten by a snake and Ye Zhiran saving her life; This smooth little stone made Ye Zhiran struggle his brain, still a little confused. The material also seems to come from Nishiyama, but what exactly is the point?
But since it was a gift from Huang Yuwen, he naturally collected it well.
The gift given by Yang Ying was even more exquisite, it was actually an imported medical mask. The surname is Cao! Is this to keep him a secret?
It's really not worry-free.
Ma Yanli's gift is very normal, it is a good pair of rag dolls, and it is a good blessing to give to newlyweds. However, Zhang Nianyue is currently very resistant to having children. Ye Zhiran thought about it again, Ma Yanli, a woman, dreamed of having a child by herself, and the meaning of this rag doll was not so simple, it seemed to have another mystery.
No matter! This rag doll is placed in the new house at least to remind Zhang Nianyue.
Xu Bangzi sent a mahogany sculpture on behalf of Wang Mengguo, which is a Dapeng bird with wings spreading, implying a long journey, which is very happy with Ye Zhiran. Xu Bangzi also conveyed a message to Ye Zhiran, on the fifth day of the first lunar month, Wang Lao will come to the wedding site to congratulate him.
On behalf of the Zhao Group, Dong Junhua sent a crystal sailing boat, the bottom of which was engraved with the words "help each other in the same boat". The shape of this sailboat is very detailed and realistic. It is a valuable handicraft.
Subsequently, friends in the officialdom received gifts one after another.
Tang Guoqiang sent the four treasures of the study; Ye Qinglian gave a set of "Historical Records", taking history as a mirror and letting him stabilize the officialdom; Feng Hanxuan gave a model of a maple tree, and the maple leaves were lifelike. In Donglin Temple, the Kude monk once called Feng Hanxuan and Ye Zhiran together Maple Leaf, and predicted the future of the two of them in a mysterious way. Sending it at this moment has its own encouragement.
The secretary of the Municipal Party Committee ~ Ji Zhong Hanting also gave a gift, which was a pair of words written by him: "Cooperation is a win-win situation". What politicians send is bound to have a deep meaning. This probably requires him and Hu Liyuan to cooperate for a win-win situation. At a higher level, it is the hope that Feng Hanxuan, Tang Guoqiang and him will cooperate for a win-win situation. To the newlyweds, these four words also contain the meaning of persuasion and hope. Suitable.
Chang Jia's cadres sent even more things, and everyone who had a one-sided relationship with Ye Zhiran gave gifts. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Ye Zhiran accepted it with a smile and handed it to Shen Rong to open and check one by one, whether there were any other "private goods" hidden in it. Any type of cash or shopping voucher will be returned on the spot.
The most strange thing is that the bitter monk asked his apprentice monk Huikong to go down the mountain, and also sent a gift, but it was an empty treasure box.
The little monk Huikong said: "Amitabha, Master explained that this brocade box is the master's ancestral heirloom. Originally, he hid the piece of jade that he had given to the donor. Master said that Master Ye should have two pieces of beautiful jade in his life, so that his luck can last and his family will be safe. Now one piece has been obtained, and one piece will be obtained in years. Sending a brocade box is to persuade the donor to cherish the jade. ”
Ye Zhiran wondered: How did the monk Kude become obscure? What jade? Shipped? Don't know you're an atheist?
"Huikong, go back and tell Master Kude, thank him for the gift." He handed him two hundred yuan casually and said, "It's rare to go down the mountain, you go buy something by yourself." ”
The little monk took two hundred yuan. With a smile on his face, he ran away.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Ye Zhiran's parents arrived in Jianan, had dinner with Nianyue's family at the hotel, and discussed some details of the wedding. In fact, Ye Zhiran had already agreed with Ye Qingli about these things, and Father Ye had to come once to show respect.
In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Ye Zhiran accompanied his parents back to Jinshan and had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in his hometown.
Mother Ye thought that her son was about to get married, and said happily at the dinner table: "Ah Ran, you are not young, brother, sister, the children are 5 or 6 years old, and you are married, you have to hurry up, while my father and I are still healthy, I will bring you the child." ”
Ye Zhiran hesitated and said: "Mom, Nianyue is still young, and she doesn't want to have a child right away, so you don't have to worry." ”
"That's not good, Ah Ran, you must make it clear to her, the sooner a woman is born, the better it is for the health of the child. Besides, don't you have to give birth early and late? This is a matter of urgency. ”
Father Ye is a very traditional person, and immediately agreed: "I support your mother in this matter, don't learn from those bad youths, just care about your own happiness, don't pass on the seeds, it's too late to regret it when you're old." ”
"Mom and Dad, I didn't say I didn't want children, Nianyue wants to be a little later."
"How late? She is also twenty-four years old, and she is twenty-six years old. ”
Seeing his parents staring at him, Ye Zhiran had no choice but to say: "Let's go two years, I will have a child in two years." ”
Ye Mu was still dissatisfied, and said: "I said earlier, Huang Yuwen is good, Miss Ma can also do it, the two of them treat Ah Ran sincerely, unlike this Zhang Nianyue who is selfish and only cares about her own happiness." ”
"Mom, don't talk nonsense, Nianyue will be unhappy when she hears it."
", I helped my daughter-in-law speak before I got married." Ye Mu was even more dissatisfied.
Ye Zhihui persuaded: "Mom, you are too anxious, didn't the second brother say it?" I will have a child in two years. ”
"What if she still doesn't want to have children after two years?"
"If you still don't have children in two years, I will talk to Sister Nianyue about this." Zhihui seems to be sure.
The Ye family was already a wealthy family in Jinshan County at this time. Not to mention that Ye Zhicheng and Ye Zhihui are both successful businessmen who opened factories and shops, the money that the three brothers and sisters made from stock warrants alone is enough to make the working class envious. Of course, these things will not be passed on, and the word "low-key" is what Father Ye has taught his children the most since he was a child.
Father Ye said: "Ah Ran, no matter what position you will be in the future or how much wealth you have, you can't forget your roots. Having a child is also a manifestation of not forgetting one's roots. ”
He also said: "Also, when the family is poor, the family gets along in harmony, and when they are rich, they often become indifferent, in our Ye family, such a thing is not allowed." ”
Ye Zhiran nodded and said, "Dad, I know." Fratricidal brothers in wealthy families are accustomed to fighting, and there are few truly harmonious families. But our family won't. My eldest brother and Zhihui and I were born poor children, and when we have money, we will not forget that we relied on each other as companions when we were children, and a popsicle was divided into three parts. You can rest assured when you are old. ”
Father Ye nodded and said, "Because you're about to get married, that's why I'll say a few more words." Today I have one more thing to say, which the three of you must keep in mind. No matter where you go high in the future, as long as one of you and I is still there, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on the Chinese New Year's Eve every year will be eaten here, and no one can be missing. ”
All three siblings nodded in agreement.
Father Ye looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and son-in-law again, and said, "You also remember?" ”
"Got it, Dad, don't worry."
Father Ye said with satisfaction: "Come on, let's drink." ”
The sister-in-law said: "Uncle is really promising, the official is so big, and his vision is accurate." The money you make from this stock warrant will not be earned by your brother in his life. ”
"Sister-in-law, this is too early to say. The eldest brother's toy factory has just started, and when the products are sold abroad in large quantities, this money is nothing at all. ”
Ye Zhihui smiled: "No matter what, the second brother's eyesight is really good. With this money, you will be more confident as an official and will no longer be greedy for small money. As long as you are not greedy for money, you must be a good official. ”
Father Ye said solemnly: "There is also the problem of life style, Huang Yatou and Miss Ma are the daughters of good families, don't do anything to be sorry for others." ”
Ma Yanli, Huang Yuwen is the most tangled matter in Ye Zhiran's heart, this Nizi is so affectionate to herself, it is difficult for other men to enter her heart. can only hope that time will be used to slowly fade her feelings.
He nodded lightly to sign acceptance of his father's opinion.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to the rules of the hometown, do not go out to relatives and do not go far. The family was at home on the TV, discussing the wedding.
In the second year of junior high school, except for Ye Zhicheng and Che Weihua, the two stayed in Jinshan and prepared to take their relatives to Changjia on the fifth day of the new year. The others all went out and went straight to Chang Jia to prepare for Ye Zhiran's marriage.
In Chang Jia, Ye Zhiran, who concealed his authority, wanted to get married, and many cadres who wanted to take the opportunity to show themselves in front of him had to queue up. However, there are only these things, and the only people who can get close to Ye Zhiran to do things are Ye Zhiran's cronies Zhong Ping, Shen Rong, He Ping, Ma Yanli and others, and the others just take the opportunity to show their faces in front of him.
Ma Yanli was dissatisfied with Ye Zhiran's marriage to Zhang Nianyue, but she didn't show anything in front of Ye's mother, since the second day of junior high school, she came to the new house early every morning to help buy vegetables, buy breakfast, and cook, and her filial piety far exceeded Ye Zhihui. Mother Ye was full of regret and didn't go.
"This child, beautiful, capable, generous, and kind-hearted, what a good candidate for a daughter-in-law, why did he not have a relationship with Ah Ran?"
On the afternoon of the fourth day of the new year, Huang Yuwen came to Changjia alone, and Ma Yanli took her to the new house. Ye Zhiran asked in surprise, "Yuwen, why are you here alone?" Don't come with Yang Ying? ”
"She will come to the provincial capital at night, and let her come by herself tomorrow, I will not wait for her."
Ye Zhiran wanted to ask her what it meant to send a stone. Ye Mu grabbed ahead of him, took Huang Yuwen's hand and asked long and short questions. Huang Yuwen called "godmother" softly, tears rolling in her eyes.
Beautiful women cry the most to win sympathy.
In front of Ye Zhiran, Ma Yanli, who was as timid as a mouse, actually threw a white eye to Ye Zhiran.
Ye Zhihui pretended to be angry and punched Ye Zhiran, and asked Huang Yuwen: "Sister Yuwen, did the second brother bully you, I will help you get justice." ”
Huang Yuwen immediately shook her head and said, "It's not about Brother Feng, it's me who is unhappy." ”
Mother Ye hurriedly asked, "Girl, what's the matter with you?" ”
Huang Yuwen found an excuse and said: "My brother has been in poor health since he got married, and he begged for medicine everywhere. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
