Chapter 399: Gift-giving and Receiving Gifts Busy
On Christmas Eve, it is estimated that Luo Meiping alone did not eat well, and the others all ate with swollen stomachs and were satisfied.
"Lao Feng, your skills are getting better and better, you are worthy of being the heir of the imperial chef family, you can do whatever you want, I am more and more inseparable from you, what should I do? Or if your kid begs for a daughter-in-law, he will live in our house, and Xiao Li will do the same, how lively the family is, and the two of us can still be a partner with a bad old man without a companion, what do you think? ”
The old man ate and drank to his heart's content, and began to retain Chef Feng in tricks.
This year has really been raised by Chef Feng, where else can he find such an affordable and capable royal chef offspring without him?
Chef Feng, his son and Xiao Li were dining at the six-person table in the kitchen, and they had almost eaten at this time, and they came out to chat with the old man, and said with a smile: "I won't leave!" My son is begging for a daughter-in-law, and I am doing it with you! I used to worry that my son was young, so I didn't worry that he was out alone, and when he begged his daughter-in-law, wouldn't his daughter-in-law take care of him, how could it be my turn to point fingers. If you don't dislike me, I'll be here for you......"
"Good, good!" The old man replied three "good" words in a row, and rewarded Lao Feng with a heavy red envelope in public, which was tonight's hard work.
After a full meal and drink, the next step is to exchange gifts.
"Girl, what gift have you prepared for grandpa this year?" The old man grabbed He Wei, who had returned from feeding the Linglong dog, and raised his chin towards the mountain of gifts piled up under the Christmas tree.
He Wei smiled and said, "Grandpa, won't you know when you take it apart?" ”
"Then don't hurry up and bring it over, Xiaobei. You go to the study and bring the letter opener. ”
"Hey!" He Songbei answered the call and went to get the knife.
Hu Hui took the lead in distributing the Christmas gifts she prepared to everyone, first to the old man, a rectangular gift box. Beautifully packaged: "Grandpa, this is a little bit of my heart to prepare, I wish you a Merry Christmas and good health!" ”
"Oh oh, good!" The old man smiled lightly and nodded, accepted the gift from her hands, and then rested it on the coffee table.
To this granddaughter-in-law. He couldn't say he liked it or didn't like it. But the second daughter-in-law is right about one thing, the situation at that time was not to the point where it could not be turned around. I can call an ambulance. Obviously, he can send Yao Nan to the hospital for treatment, instead of using himself as an antidote, so that Yao Nan loses his right to choose and traps the He family in a passive position. It's a bad feeling to be used and calculated.
What does Old Man He, who was born with mud legs and exchanged for medals for military exploits, hate the most in his life? That is the camp in the officialdom, twisting and turning. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you don't understand. I think he has been rolling around in the military department for so many years. How could you not see Hu Hui's calculations in this matter? Don't you just want to enter He's house by losing your body?
I like his family Yaonan, and there is nothing wrong with taking the initiative to pursue this, but the fault is that her mind is not pure, what is not said in advance, and she only speaks when she calculates it in confidence. This time, it was certain that Yao Nan would not repay the debt, and that the He family had to suppress this ugly matter for the sake of face.
So although he admitted this granddaughter-in-law, he kept colding her, hoping that she could correct her mentality. Don't think that if you succeed once, you can calculate a second time. The He family can tolerate her this time, but they will never tolerate her a second time.
Hu Hui was hit enough by Fang Wanru's words before dinner. Later, he was healed by He Yaonan's care and thoughtfulness, and his mood became cheerful, talking and laughing with everyone, and eating a lot of delicacies that he had never even seen in his previous life, and although he had been exposed to it very few times in this life, those unpleasant things were gradually left behind by her.
She repeatedly persuaded herself to relax, thinking that this would be good, such a day, compared to her previous life, was the difference between clouds and mud. People can't be too greedy, greed is not enough to swallow elephants, think about Luo Xiaoxiao who was defeated, and then think about yourself in your previous life, you should really be satisfied.
can see that the old man's attitude towards her is so different from that towards He Wei, and he can't help but cry out for himself. She's obviously working hard, so why can't she be nicer? What's so good about He Wei, so many people surround her and coax her? It seems that He Wei is the granddaughter-in-law of the He family, but she is not.
Thinking of this, Hu Hui couldn't help but give He Wei an extremely resentful look.
It's a pity that He Wei didn't receive it. She's struggling to pick up the presents she's put in under the Christmas tree.
One by one, they were found out, divided into two piles according to men and women, and then delivered to each person one by one. Unlike Hu Hui, who was the first to send the old man, the others were temporarily forgotten because of her indignant psychological activities.
He Wei didn't even leave behind the old Feng and the two in the kitchen, and after dividing it, she ran to the old man with the largest gift box, and said with a red face: "Grandpa, give!" Merry Christmas! Take it apart and see if you like it or not? ”
"Good, good." The old man stroked his beard happily and smiled, took the letter opener handed by He Songbei, and opened the gift box himself.
"Wow wow! Sister-in-law, did you do it yourself? He Songbei took two letter opening knives from the study, one was given to the old man, and the other was kept for himself, young man, dismantling things and clattering, not to mention how fast, so that the old man had just cut the seal, and he was already holding a dark blue clay pen holder admiring it. As for the pair of silver incense balls, they were snatched and played with by He Lingxi.
After He Songbei found out, he hurriedly pounced: "Ah, hey! That's mine! What about your own? Hurry up and dismantle it! Knives for you. ”
"Stingy!"
"Where is it stingy, it's obviously there, and you rob me of my ......"
Hu Hui was beaten by the twins before she came back to her senses. This is unbelievable, her own gift was sent to the old man alone, but He Wei has finished it, and everyone is opening the gift box she sent. The secret way is not good, the limelight was stolen by her alone, and she hurriedly called He Yaonan to help distribute the gifts, but found that He Yaonan was also playing with the novel and chic aromatherapy ball, and almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Hu Hui stroked his chest and inhaled, exhaled, inhaled and exhaled again, finally reluctantly suppressing the anger in his heart. The heart said that when you see the gifts I gave, you will have a count, and these gifts from He Wei must have been bought, how can they be as heavy as the scarves I knitted myself.
"Yo? Weiwei, you can't have knitted these gloves and socks yourself, right? So soft. Is it woven with cashmere? ”
Fang Wanru's words made Hu Hui suddenly feel bad.
What? Didn't He Wei send a clay pen holder and a ball? How can there be gloves and socks woven with cashmere thread?
She hurriedly distributed the gifts she had prepared to everyone, and then came to Fang Wanru's side. Seeing Fang Wanru put on the cashmere gloves in her hand, she almost stumbled under her feet.
It's true! He Wei also knitted things!
Although it is not a scarf, the difficulty of the glove and socks is obviously greater than that of a scarf, not to mention that it is still woven with cashmere thread, which is much more brilliant than the mohair scarf I gave myself.
Hu Hui is full of feelings.
Coincidentally, at this time, Fang Wanru said a few more words, and said to Luo Meiping, who was trying on gloves on the side: "Second sister-in-law, Weiwei's gift is to your liking, right?" Didn't you say two days ago that you were missing a pair of gloves and wanted to go to the mall to shop for goods a few days ago? There's no need to go now...... This sock cover is also good. Wear slippers at home, you can put on thin socks to keep warm...... If I knew how to weave, I'd knit it for ten pairs and eight pairs. It's a pity that I can only knit scarves, or Weiwei, I know that we can't knit them......"
Speaking of this, Fang Wanru paused. Because she had just opened the gift that Hu Hui gave her. It is a flat needle scarf made of mohair. The color is quite what she likes, but this style, material, to be honest, she hasn't tied it since she was thirty-five years old.
But no matter how you say it, it is also Yaonan's daughter-in-law's intention, Fang Wanru praised Hu Hui with a smile, and then teased Luo Meiping for fear that the world would not be chaotic......
made Luo Meiping angry enough. Who is just there, there is a vigorous praise of Hewei's ability. It is not a skill to be able to knit a scarf, but it is a real ingenuity to be able to knit gloves and socks. Oh. Changed his tune again? When she's deaf! Also, don't think that if the counter-words are so good, she won't be able to hear them, and no one in the family knows that this daughter-in-law was not picked by her at all. Didn't he prickle her lungs when she said that!
Hu Hui only felt that one of her hearts had been cut and sewn countless times tonight, and it was almost shattered into slag. Fortunately, her family Yaonan still gave face, wrapped the love scarf she knitted on the spot, and hugged her and said a lot of sweet words. Her numb heart was comforted by a lot.
I heard the old man joke with He Wei again: "What Christmas gift did that stinky boy give you?" Do you want to show grandpa? ”
He Wei smiled, but didn't say it. In fact, I can't say that what He Xiaoguan gave her was a nano silver storage rack, and she put it in space as soon as she received it. How does the old man want to see how to break it? Is it a big trick? If you count as a bird, you should be embarrassed, laugh and hide without saying a word.
Seeing this, the old man pointed at her and scolded her a few words, and then he revealed it. I didn't really want to see it, I just wanted to tease her.
Hu Hui breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. I finally found one stronger than He Wei. Not only was the Christmas He Wei man unable to attend, but he might not even have prepared a gift, otherwise why wouldn't He Wei say it? And it's so far away, who knows if there are other women out there...... Thinking about it this way, it's better to have Yao Nan in her own house, which important day is not by her side? The gift is also a pure gold pendant in her early morning photo. Compared with the two, Hu Hui is complete. The heart said that the old man was so good to He Wei, maybe it was compensation.
Hu Hui, who had made up for it in her own brain, looked at He Wei again, and there was a trace of sympathy in her eyes.
He Wei was inexplicably looked at by her, and said that the gift was given too slowly, which made Hu Hui unhappy.
Hurriedly handed over the box in his hand: "Sister Huihui, Merry Christmas!" ”
What she gave Hu Hui was a set of branded cosmetics. She received several sets of this thing in the space, but she was afraid that there would not be enough gifts to give, so she used it to deal with it temporarily.
Although Hu Hui was a little dissatisfied with this, because He Wei didn't give her the aromatherapy balls, Yao Nan gave her his pair of aromatherapy balls, and the price of this cosmetics is not cheap, she often heard her roommate mention it, but she has never been willing to buy it. It's not that Yao Nan didn't give her good things, but basically jewelry, clothes, cosmetics and the like he didn't know about it, and he never gave it away. So Hu Hui is generally satisfied with the Christmas gift given by He Wei.
Following He Wei and Hu Hui, it was followed by He Yaonan's several He family grandsons who distributed gifts.
He Yaonan sent everyone a travel version of the Swiss Army Knife and a manicure set, which is characterized by practicality.
The twins are prepared to eat: the old man is two boxes of premium propolis, the two ladies are natural honey, and the two men are tea. The rest of the people, including Lao Feng, Xiao Feng and Xiao Li, each had a jar of colorful imported assorted chewing gum, and they couldn't read the twisted text, and they said that it was chocolate or ordinary candy.
After the juniors gave the gifts, it was the turn of the elders to send the juniors' hearts.
Forget about their own son, Luo Meiping and Fang Wanru have the ambition to work together, and they can deal with it casually by buying a few boxes of chocolates.
As for He Wei and Hu Hui, after all, they haven't passed the door yet, they can be called guests, so it's not good to deal with a box of chocolates, right? So, the two concubines gathered to visit the mall for the first time. In the end, Fang Wanru picked boots, and Luo Meiping picked a leather bag. Although the color and style are different, the price is about the same, so as not to have any ideas from each other and spread to the old man's ears afterwards.
He Aiguo and He Warring States two brothers, originally had no idea what Christmas Eve and what Christmas, in their opinion, it was nothing more than to find a reason to have a dinner, where did they think that the juniors had given it, and even their daughters-in-law and sons had prepared gifts, and they were embarrassed that the two of them were fathers and uncles, so they sealed a few red envelopes on the spot and gave one to each of the juniors.
In the end, it was the turn of the old man. gave He Wei and Hu Hui a big red envelope. The three grandchildren said that they would stay until the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve. Because He Wei and Hu Hui will definitely not come on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the two of them will give the New Year's money first through Christmas. None of the three grandchildren have an opinion, and they don't dare to mention it if they have an opinion.
Luo Meiping didn't say anything this time. Because she saw that the red envelopes given by the old man were of the same thickness, and the red envelopes given during the holidays, especially when the red envelopes for the New Year's money were generally auspicious, and it was impossible to only have one or two differences, so since the thickness was about the same, it should be the same amount. So Luo Meiping's heart is balanced.
But what she didn't know was that the old man didn't give the same currency at all. What he gave Hu Hui was Huaguo coins, 10,000 yuan. And what was given to He Wei was US dollars, 10,000 yuan.
In the old man's heart, Hu Hui, the granddaughter-in-law, is not comparable to He Wei's granddaughter-in-law at all. So give the two of them red envelopes of different amounts, and I don't feel guilty at all.
And Luo Meiping and Hu Hui where did they think that the old man would come to such a show, seeing that the thickness is almost the same, but the way is the same, so they are very satisfied. Especially Hu Hui, the first time she received such a large amount of New Year's bag, the whole person was dizzy, and even He Wei didn't mind that she had an extra delicate dog as a Christmas gift than her. Maybe as Aunt He said, when the old man was looking for that little thing, the matter between her and Yao Nan had not yet been decided. (To be continued.) )
