The evil stepmother is also doing her best for the motherland today.

Chapter 77 Rich families have many things to do

The old lady raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Jingyi and said, "This is a meeting gift. Every daughter-in-law of the Gu family has one. Take it."

Xu Jingyi looked at Gu Minzheng for help.

"Grandma asked you to accept it, just take it."

"Thank you grandma."

"Look at me, I went out in a hurry and didn't know my niece-in-law was coming. I didn't even prepare a gift. My niece-in-law won't blame me."

When the third aunt saw the old lady giving the jade bracelet she brought to Xu Jingyi, a flash of jealousy flashed in her eyes, saying that it was for the Gu family's daughter-in-law. The elder spoke deliberately.

"What are you talking about, Third Aunt? I'm not here to ask for a gift. I got a southern pearl a few days ago. Knowing that Third Aunt loves pearls, I brought it to you specially."

Xu Jingyi took the gift box from her aunt, held it in her hands and placed it in her third aunt's hand. Seeing her choked, she couldn't be happier.

Gu Minzheng could guess her thoughts with just one look, but he smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that his wife couldn't get off the stage, the third uncle looked unhappy and blamed Xu Jingyi for not respecting his elders. He put down the tea cup in his hand, coughed a few times, and acted like an elder:
"Jingyi, you have just arrived. If there is anything you don't understand, please ask your third aunt. She has been here for many years and knows more than you."

"Yes, Jingyi, if you don't understand in the future, you can come to me and I will take you to meet people in my circle when I have time."

Listening to the couple singing together, Xu Jingyi showed a happy smile on her face and grabbed Gu Minzheng's hand:
"Thank you Third Uncle and Third Aunt for your kindness, but Min Zheng said before that I can just ask him if I don't understand. As for the people in the circle, he let me do whatever I want and just say that I am happy."

After saying that, he lowered his head pretending to be shy, but actually he was completely afraid that he would laugh, and pinched the back of Gu Minzheng's hand.

"Well, as long as she's happy." Gu Minzheng smiled and held the little woman's hand behind his back to prevent her from pinching him again.

"I heard that my cousin is currently filming. I heard that the entertainment industry is quite chaotic."

When Xu Jingyi heard this, she thought, oh, she really didn't know whether to praise their family's unity or not. Is this because there are so many people to bully her? If a tiger doesn't show its power, you think I'm a sick cat.

"Little aunt, the entertainment industry is not chaotic. Auntie took me and Mo Mo to film a variety show before, and it was quite fun."

"Yes, Auntie, will you take me to play with Aunt Cheng Wan's little sister from now on?"

"of course can."

Because Gu Yi and Gu Mo opened their mouths, the third uncle's family completely stopped. Xu Jingyi secretly blinked at Gu Yi to express her gratitude.

The third uncle's family had a panoramic view of their interaction, and their faces were livid with anger.

"What are you talking about? It's so lively. Third brother arrived very early today."

As soon as the words finished in the room, a loud middle-aged male voice was heard outside the room.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law."

"Third brother, third sister-in-law."

Hearing the address, Xu Jingyi guessed who the person was without Gu Minzheng's introduction. She immediately cheered up and followed Gu Minzheng up to say hello.

Xu Jingyi then tried and fought with these two families. Fortunately, her second uncle's family was kinder and did not embarrass her. However, her fourth uncle's family was more difficult to get to than her third uncle's family.

After Xu Jingyi finished dinner, she took Gu Minzheng to their room by coaxing her children to sleep.

After entering the room, Xu Jingyi threw herself on the bed, looked at the person standing at the end of the bed with despair and sighed:
"Gu Minzheng, this is a wealthy family. This is a dinner party. Isn't this the Hongmen Banquet? Do you know how many brain cells I died today? More brain cells than I have died in more than 20 years."

Listening to Xu Jingyi's complaints, Gu Minzheng chuckled.

"Is it so scary?"

"It's so scary." Xu Jingyi nodded heavily.

"I'll tell grandma later that you don't have to go out to deal with them." "Forget it, we have to face them sooner or later. If I'm not mistaken, there will be many people coming to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, the first day of the Lunar New Year."

After receiving Gu Minzheng's affirmative answer, Xu Jingyi suddenly felt her scalp numb.

"I can."

"Dong dong dong."

Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Jingyi winked at Gu Minzheng, and Gu Minzheng got up and opened the door and walked out.

He came back after a while and said to her: "Grandma asked me to go to the study room. If you want to go out, you can go out. If you don't want to go out, just rest here with the children."

"it is good."

Gu Minzheng entered the study and took the initiative to sharpen ink for the old lady. He didn't speak until the old lady put away her pen: "Jingyi is young."

When the old lady heard this, she glanced at him and snorted: "So I just let him beat everyone up."

After hearing the old lady's words, Gu Minzheng remembered what happened in the main room just now, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth:

"Don't you indulge her too?"

The old lady put aside what she had written and sat down at the tea table.

"It's a good one."

"Thank you grandma for the compliment."

"I'm not complimenting you, but you are still young and your temperament needs to be tempered. Don't rely on her for everything. In the end, everything will have to fall on her."

Hearing this, Gu Minzheng stopped the smile on his face and became serious.

"I'll mention something on the side."

"Well, go out and don't offend anyone."

Gu Minzheng gently closed the door, and the aunt came in from the outside. While helping the old lady wash her hands, she said, "Young lady, this is how you recognize this new young lady."

"What's the use of whether I agree or not? You haven't seen what people are like. Fortunately, he is a man of good character. Forget it, I am getting old. My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. As long as the family does not collapse before I close my eyes, I just need to make an explanation with the old man."

"Miss, why are you talking about this during the Chinese New Year?" Aunt Qin suddenly turned red when she heard what the old lady said.

"Okay, okay, stop talking. Look at you. Why are you crying? I can't stop talking. Let's go. Take the red envelope. It's time to distribute the red envelope to them."

When Gu Minzheng went down to find Xu Jingyi, Xu Jingyi was already losing cards and hemp. Seeing Gu Minzheng was like seeing the savior, her eyes lit up.

"Gu Minzheng~"

"Hey, it's true that we just got married. Look, we haven't seen each other for a while, and we are so inseparable." The third cousin joked.

"Min Zheng, come quickly. If you don't come, Jingyi will lose and cry." The second aunt also teased.

Gu Minzheng moved a chair behind Xu Jingyi, leaned closer and said, "What's wrong?"

"I've been losing since the beginning. It's been two hours. I haven't won once, not even once." The voice was full of frustration.

Rubbing the top of Xu Jingyi's hair, he comforted: "It's okay, they have been fighting for 20 years, so they are naturally better than you, the first-time fighter. Don't worry about losing, my husband is rich."

"Okay, I know the young couple has a good relationship. If you want to go to your house, don't feed us dog food here."

Xu Jingyi's face heated up at the words, she lowered her head in embarrassment and tugged on Gu Minzheng's sleeve.
