A leisurely life reborn in the fiery age

Chapter 102 My father-in-law is actually such a sixth child!

Xu Huizhen nodded thoughtfully when she heard the words, and then suddenly smiled and said, "If you can't buy or sell, you can't buy or sell. Anyway, the house is enough right now. Xiao'e, wait a minute..."

After speaking, she got up and went back to the bedroom. When she came out again, she had an extra jade bracelet in her hand, and said with a smile: "It's not worth much to you, but your brother-in-law and I have a heart, don't refuse!"

Lou Xiao'e glanced at it, got up quickly and said: "Sister Huizhen, you still say it's worthless, this jade bracelet is like cut fat, warm and fine, it looks like the best seed jade, not ordinary mountain material. This is really impossible!"

Li Yuan also blamed: "Sister Huizhen, I just brought a bag of apple snacks. You gave such a big gift, which is better than my mother's. Who would dare to accept it? You can't see it as a sincere gift." , you have to send it sincerely, let Brother Cai have a pot of Erguotou, and Ezi and I can continue to drink two cups when we bring it home."

Xu Huizhen stared and said: "Master, you are here to play tricks on me! Your sister and I have no natal family, but you are my natal family. What's wrong with giving my sister-in-law a bracelet?"

Seeing her like this, Li Yuan smiled helplessly with Cai Quanwu: "Brother Cai, look, this is getting serious with me!"

Cai Quanwu smiled and said: "The white head is as new as before, and the cover is as old as before. That's all. Yuanzi, listen to your sister. The relationship between people depends on the heart, not on this."

Li Yuan was not shy either, nodded and said, "That will work."

Only then did Lou Xiaoe thank you for taking it, and then whispered to Li Yuan: "I want to give the music box to Jingli..."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Have you brought it with you?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said, "Don't you say you'll take me fishing later? I thought about taking it for fun, but now..."

But she didn't expect that Xu Huizhen would give her such a precious bracelet. Even in the eyes of Lou's family, this bracelet is not cheap.

She still doesn't understand Xu Huizhen's serious character. In Xu Huizhen's view, there is nothing more precious than her children in the world.

Li Yuan saved her little daughter last time, and taught such a precious housekeeping skill, and even used it. In return, a bracelet is really nothing...

But for Lou Xiaoe, she comes from a wealthy family, and she doesn't like to take advantage of others and owe favors to others.

The reason why she proposed to return it with a more precious music box was not just for herself, but also because she wanted to give her man a face outside!

The two did not avoid people during the discussion. Although they didn't hear clearly, they also guessed something. Xu Huizhen was very unhappy and said: "Yuanzi, Xiao'e, what are you doing? Are you treating this as a business? Are you really showing it today?" Come here with a treasure of gold and silver, and we won’t be able to communicate with each other in the future!”

Lou Xiao'e hurriedly said: "No, sister Huizhen, I didn't give it to you, I have a gift for Xiao Jingli! Just a little thing..."

As he said that, he went to the door and took the bag, and took out a beautiful wooden music box from it.

Li Yuan said to Cai Quanwu: "Brother Cai, bring Xiao Jingli and Xiao Jingping to see if they like it."

Cai Quanwu saw that this thing was neither gold nor silver, it was just a delicate wooden pony, it was really just a gadget, so he happily went to the West Wing and brought Xu Jingli who Zhao Yali helped take care of.

Xu Jingping was still too young, he was worried that his little daughter would grind her teeth if she put that thing in her mouth.

When Xu Jingli came, Lou Xiaoe revealed her mystery, twisted the spring under the wooden horse, let go again, and the crisp and pleasant music sounded, let alone Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, even Cai Quanwu was dumbfounded.

Xu Jingli, on the other hand, looked at the toy in front of her in surprise, her big eyes were almost shining, and when she took it, her expression was simply divine.

Seeing Xu Huizhen stepping forward to take it back, Li Yuan stopped in the middle of the way, said "Hey", and threatened with a smile: "Sister Huizhen, if you don't accept this, we won't be able to see each other in the future."

"..."

Xu Huizhen asked anxiously: "Yuanzi, what are you messing around with? Just give away such a precious thing?"

Chen Xueru was more knowledgeable, and said, "This is the music box, right? We don't have it in our country, it seems that only Switzerland has it! Good guy, this is worth several gold bars! Huizhen's bracelet is also valuable, but it's not as good as this one." There are always quite a few bracelets to be found in these four or nine cities, but this kind of thing is really rare. Maybe it’s the only one.”

Li Yuan glanced at her lightly and said: "What's the point of calculating these accounts? Besides, this is a small gift that Xiao'e's sister-in-law brought back from Hong Kong Island. It's just too emotional."

The top-quality Hetian seed jade bracelet presented by Xu Huizhen looks like an old item. After 50 years, you can buy more than [-] music boxes like this...

Hetian jade seed material is the original Kunlun Mountain material, which was brought into the river due to geological movement, washed into the middle and lower reaches of the Yulong River, and can only be formed after hundreds of millions of years of scouring by the river.

Raw materials are already very precious, let alone such an old object.

Of course, the value cannot be calculated in this way, and timeliness must be considered.

Seeing that even Cai Quanwu refused to be accepted by Xu Jing, Li Yuan asked Lou Xiao'e to put down the jade bracelet and leave.

In the end, both sides couldn't hold back, Xu Huizhen saw Li Yuan's young temper turned up, and Xu Jingli was also crying, so she had no choice but to let her daughter play with it.

But looking back, he still complained: "You guys are really going too far. It's really difficult for people to give such a valuable thing."

Li Yuan said unhappily: "Okay sister! This jade bracelet of yours will become more and more valuable in the future. It is an antique. Our music box is science, and it will only become less and less valuable in the future. According to this calculation, you eat It's a big loss, I didn't say anything, and you feel sorry for it. Let me tell you, there is a third master in our yard, who looks exactly like the master you mentioned, and he is very calculating. At home and with my own son, I can calculate everything clearly, everyone laughs at his family, it's so boring!"

Xu Huizhen said with a smile: "Pian'er's father's calculations are clear, and he has lived a hard life. What's the matter, the third master in your yard didn't think about coming to recognize his relatives?"

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "I came over to take a look, and when I heard that it was a foreign movie player, I turned my head and went home."

Everyone laughed, and Xu Huizhen said: "Although Mr. Pianer's money is tight, he still has ancestral property. It's such a big yard."

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Then you can't tell the third master, or you will have to come over and suck the blood!"

Chen Xueru had already forgotten the revenge of stepping on her foot just now, it was the first time she saw such a man who didn't care about money, the more he treated her like this, the deeper she sank in her heart, and she looked at Li with bright eyes. Yuan asked, "Didn't you find a man last time and say that his father is exactly the same as Lao Cai? Why hasn't there been any movement? What's going on with his family?"

Li Yuan didn't ignore him, and said, "That's my buddy, He Yuzhu, and his father is He Daqing. It is said that he looks exactly like Brother Cai. But he is much older, he should be in his forties this year."

Chen Xueru smiled and said: "What about that person? I said we are really destined, everyone we know looks the same!"

Lou Xiao'e glanced at her vigilantly, but then thought again, she was pregnant, she must be thinking too much...

Li Yuan chuckled, and said: "He Daqing ran away with a widow in Baoding several years ago, and went to raise a child for others. Instead, the two biological children left home and left to fend for themselves."

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help it, she laughed softly, "As a result, his son also fell in love with other people's wives, staring at her every day..."

Chen Xueru froze for a moment, then burst into a "puchi" laugh, and then burst out laughing uncontrollably, laughing backwards and forwards, tears bursting out...

Xu Huizhen was a little unhappy, knowing that Chen Xueru wasn't laughing at the troublemaker He Yuzhu, but at her, because she was also someone else's wife...

Cai Quanwu was calm, and laughed at himself: "In this way, it is really possible that they are a family."

Chen Xueru said to Lou Xiao'e: "Sister Xiao'e, come to my silk shop later? Although I don't have a bracelet, I still have two clothes for you."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Thank you sister Xueru, I really can't do it today, I have something to do in a while. Next time, I will definitely go next time."

After laughing for a while, Li Yuan said goodbye to Lou Xiao'e and left.

After sending the two couples away, Cai Quanwu went to see the children, and Xu Huizhen realized that Chen Xueru hadn't gone out to see them off just now. She asked curiously, "Why, seeing that his wife is a daughter-in-law, she retreated in spite of the difficulties?"

Chen Xueru sneered, and said: "I will retire? Just wait and see!"

After speaking, he got up and went out.

Xu Huizhen asked in surprise: "Xueru, what happened to your leg? Why are you still limping?"

Chen Xueru gritted her teeth expressionlessly: "It's okay, I've been sitting for a long time, my legs are numb! But it doesn't matter, I'm happy!"

……

"Yuanzi, I kind of understand why you are so close to these people."

On the way back to her natal home, Lou Xiaoe said with a smile while riding her bicycle.

The weather in Sijiu City in November has turned cold, and it is not suitable to go fishing at this time. It happened that Nie Yuanchao needed Lou Zhentao to say hello.

Seeing that Lou Xiao'e was happy, Li Yuan smiled and said, "If you like it, you can hang out more and make more friends, and your life will be much happier."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, but hesitated for a while before carefully asking: "That Chen Xueru, does she... like you a little bit? Do you know her? Where is her man?"

Li Yuan said: "I really don't know this person very well, I haven't talked much, and I don't really want to get close. I always feel that she and Sister Huizhen are not in the same way, and we are not in the same way."

Lou Xiao'e nodded repeatedly when she heard the words: "Yeah! I also think that she is not like us. She is as fashionable as those women in Jiusheng Beach. She also has curly hair and wears a cheongsam..."

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Based on your family background, you should see this kind of dress a lot, right?"

Lou Xiaoe shook her head and said, "I saw it when I was a child, not many. Even if adults wear cheongsams, few dare to perm like this. At that time, Sijiucheng was not as good as Shenghai and Jinling..."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "That's right. When I was a child, my family wore homespun jackets, and in winter I wrapped them in rags. Therefore, although the fate of a person depends on individual struggle, he also has to consider the course of history. If it weren't for the new China, I would be living in a rural village." How can a farmer in the countryside marry Miss Qianjin from Lou Bancheng?"

"Screw you!"

Lou Xiao'e was overjoyed at being teased, and when she entered Lou's house, she was still smiling.

Looking at the happy little daughter, the mood of Lou Zhentao and his wife improved a lot, and they greeted Li Yuanlai more enthusiastically.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Ezi has been homesick for the past two days. I happened to take her to the front door today to meet some friends and have a meal together. When I came back, I came here to visit my parents... Empty hands here."

Lou Zhentao laughed and said, "You can take that little thing."

He regretted saying this, but if he brought the Shenglong Wan, it would not be too much at all.

Good stuff, really exciting!

When Lou's mother took Lou Xiao'e upstairs to talk, Lou Zhentao made a gesture to pour tea for Li Yuan. Li Yuan stood up first with a smile, poured a cup of tea for each of them, took a sip, and then told all about Nie Yuanchao with a smile. , and finally said: "My master's house means that they are on the same line with Deputy Factory Manager Nie and will communicate. But I also want you to come forward and say hello to Nie Yuanchao."

Lou Zhentao nodded slowly and said: "Okay, it's time to say hello. This family is usually very low-key, among the second-generation children I know, it is considered the most low-key. Of course, it may have something to do with not being directly related. But as far as I am As we all know, the care he receives is not less than that of his immediate family. It is his own choice. In his generation, he is very low-key. But he arranges his three children very well. This person is very smart. Looking at it now Come on, take good care of your own children too."

Li Yuan felt a toothache when he heard this, and he said speechlessly: "Isn't that reasonable? His family runs that trick...Of course, I don't want to have a relationship with the high school if I don't do that stuff. Freedom. But that's what Nie Yuanchao and his wife meant, otherwise, why would they send their daughter to Hong Kong Island? Now that I'm married, do you think I don't like it?"

But he didn't take it seriously in his heart, because except for the two days when he and Lou Xiao'e got married and sent invitations to Nie Yuanchao, he felt waves of negative emotions from Nie Yuanchao and his wife Li Cuiyun, and he didn't feel anything wrong during the rest of the time.

And the negative emotion value received at that time was not much...

Lou Zhentao said in a deep voice: "How can such a person be reasonable? So, I still have to come forward and make a round. Moreover, I alone is not enough. Now it is not the past. Nie Yuanchao may not give me this face. I have to find someone A worthy friend came forward..."

Li Yuan almost didn't laugh out loud, does he have a series of friends?

He asked, "Dad, where can I find such a valuable friend?"

Lou Zhentao smiled: "Lucky, the friend who delivered the medicine last time has this weight. As long as he comes forward, the problem will not be too big. But, I'm afraid I have to take two more Shenglong pills."

Damn, my father-in-law is actually such a sixth child!
