The Star Catcher

Chapter 118 Engagement
"Uncle, uncle! Come and move things!"

Eldest nephew Dongdong and niece Nannan trot in excitedly wearing beautiful new clothes.

Liu Xu picked up a little guy with one hand and kissed each other, feeling very good.

The two sisters came in afterward, and they were taking out large and small bags from the trunk with happy faces.The two brothers-in-law were not there, and they were probably picking up their uncle, aunt, and the others from the hotel.

Liu Xu hurried forward to help, and asked:
"Brother-in-law, how long will they be there?"

Seeing Liu Xu in formal attire, the elder sister said with a smile:
"Today is very handsome. My silly younger brother is finally getting engaged! Your brother-in-law and the others are going to pick him up. It may be a little later. Uncles and aunts will come over soon."

Fruits, firecrackers and other things were moved to the living room one by one, and the two sisters checked the house again, and after finding nothing wrong, they said enviously:
"Your robot is really good. It cleans up everything well. It's much more reliable than yours."

Liu Xu had a bitter face, not knowing what to say.

The eldest sister said she was stupid, and the second sister also said that she was unreliable. Liu Xu didn't want to get entangled with them on this issue, so he could only smile and say:
"After today's work is over, I will send two of you to each of you, just as the robots have been debugged."

When they heard that Liu Xu was going to give home robots, the two sisters were overjoyed.

Having a good helper at home can free your hands, whoever is stupid will not be happy!

But the second sister asked suspiciously:
"Didn't you say it hasn't been announced yet? Can you give it to us!"

Liu Xu replied with a smile:

"No problem, anyway, it's being uploaded on the Internet; after the Chinese New Year, you can start making external reservations, it doesn't matter."

"That's fine, it's fine.

Our family has an aunt anyway, it doesn’t matter if you use it or not, it won’t affect your future development.

It's just that you really plan to sell it for 99999 yuan?The price is so low, are you sure you can make money? "

Liu Xu explained seriously:
"Sister, the price has been carefully considered.

Although the profit is not much, the profit is not bad.

Besides, one hundred thousand yuan is only one yuan short. This price is not cheap, and many families still cannot afford it. "

……

Not long after, Liu Xu and his two sisters rushed out when they heard the horn of a car outside.

The two brothers-in-law arrived with their uncles and aunts, and many cousins ​​drove here by themselves.

There were more than [-] people, big and small, very lively, Liu Xu hurriedly called out one by one.

It was the first time for my uncle and aunt to come to the factory villa. After getting off the car, my uncle and aunt didn't rush in. They looked around the villa and kept looking at the expensive villa.

In their eyes, such a house may not be considered beautiful, but it must cost a lot of money.

Uncle San casually asked:

"Xiaoxu, how much did this house cost to build? Why do I feel weird everywhere I look?"

Seeing uncle and uncle all looking over, Liu Xu replied with a smile:

"The frame of the house is worthless, only tens of millions."

Liu Xu didn't dare to tell the actual cost of the house, otherwise he would be criticized again.

When the third uncle heard tens of millions, his face suddenly changed, and he gave Liu Xu an angry look before saying:
"You child, it costs so much money to build a house, you don't know how to use the money wisely! How many people will live in such a big house? Can you live alone?
What a waste of money to build such a large area!I don’t know how to save a little…”

After hearing this, Liu Xu didn't dare to refute, with an expression of humbly listening to the teaching.

There is no refutation. If you dare to rebut, uncles and aunts will definitely attack you together, and it will be another lesson.

Seeing Liu Xu humbly accepting the criticism with low eyebrows, Third Uncle nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile:
"Young people just don't know how to cherish it. It's good to have money in the bank to earn interest. Although you are doing well now, you have to remember the old saying '30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi', don't just go around with a little money. Hell, when you have no money, you will be laughed at by others."

Liu Xu accompanied the smiling face:

"What you said is, it's cold outside, let's go inside and sit."

A group of people walked into the living room, and the house immediately became lively.

In particular, seeing the robot serving tea and pouring water shocked the relatives who came for the first time, and they talked more.

Amidst the compliments from the elders and the envious eyes of his cousins, Liu Xu answered a bunch of questions.

While chatting for a while, Nangong Caiyue called Liu Xu.

According to the rules of their hometown, they need to set off firecrackers to welcome the guests.

When the elders heard that their in-laws had arrived, they immediately greeted them out the door.

Liu Xu's parents were long gone, and the uncle who was the representative was the first to greet the car when it stopped.

Liu Xu was making an introduction on the side. Fortunately, Nangong Jinxuan and Li Yanling didn't have the slightest airs, and greeted all Liu Xu's relatives.

Uncle and the elders just felt familiar when they saw Nangong Jinxuan, after all, the big figures on TV were far away from them.

But my cousins ​​are young people. As a main official in Xiangzhou, his appearance rate is very high, and it is normal for him to be recognized.

But Liu Xu's eyes looked at Nangong Caiyue, who had been carefully dressed, from time to time. The red coat Liu Xu asked Basha to make out of the skin of the red polar fox.

Because the red polar fox lives in extremely hot areas, it often absorbs a specific kind of heat energy. The coat made of its fur is very warm in winter, and its fur is also soft and delicate.Liu Xu specially made a few pieces, and gave one to each of his two sisters.

The coat completely covers the slender figure, and the long leather boots on the feet make the legs look more slender.

Of course, Nangong Caiyue glanced back shyly from time to time.

But there were too many people, and the two of them didn't dare to do too many small tricks under the noses of everyone.

A group of people entered the room and sat down, and the uncle began to pour wine for Nangong Jinxuan.

This is a wedding wine. In terms of etiquette, everyone should have a few drinks to deepen their impression.However, Nangong Jinxuan's status is special, so I'm afraid that if he can come today, he will come here after asking for leave. Drinking is definitely not allowed.

Seeing Nangong Jinxuan holding the wine glass, he was embarrassed for a while and didn't know how to explain it. Liu Xu saw it, and couldn't tell his identity too directly, so he had to say to the uncle tactfully:

"Uncle Nangong has a special job, so I'm afraid he can't drink alcohol."

Before Liu Xu finished speaking, the uncle glared at him, and said in an angry way:
"No matter how special the job is, why don't you drink alcohol for such a big event as your daughter's engagement?! You're the only one who has a lot to do. Say yes, in-laws."

This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The big hall brother recognized Nangong Jinhuang's identity, and he had confirmed it to Liu Xu before, so he hurried forward to persuade his father in fright, but before he could speak, he was reprimanded again.

Nangong Jinhuang smiled awkwardly and explained:

"Dear family, I'm usually busy with work, I also asked for leave in the morning, and I have to go to work later, the unit stipulates that I can't drink alcohol during working hours.

How about this, wait until the day of vacation, when my in-laws come over, I will accompany you to have a good drink, okay? "

The uncle put down his wine glass with some dissatisfaction and said with a dark face:

"The rules of the unit are determined by people. Drinking a cup of wedding wine can't delay work, right? No matter how busy the in-laws are at work, they can still be more busy than the chairman of the Xiangzhou Parliament? Right!"

Seeing this scene, the big hall brother next to him jumped anxiously, and whispered a few words to the third uncle helplessly. When the third uncle heard it, he was startled and stood up involuntarily.After careful sizing, he finally confirmed Nangong Jinming's identity, and hurried forward to his elder brother's ear and whispered:

"Boss, my in-laws are not allowed to drink due to their special work. We can serve tea instead of wine to our in-laws. It's fine if everyone understands it. As long as Xiao Xu and the others are good, we will be happy, right?"

The uncle looked around, and the voices in the room were less. Everyone looked at him strangely and shook their heads with winks.

At this time, unexpectedly Li Yanling stood up and took the cup from her husband's hand and said:

"Family, I'm really sorry today. Jin Huang can't drink because of work, so let me toast you for him."

After finishing speaking, he suffocated the wine in one gulp...
