Chapter 436: Dad Ji is afraid of his wife
In the room, Ji Yanming's father Ji Wenxue had been walking back and forth at the door with his hands behind his back for no less than ten times, but he didn't see his wife who had gone out bring someone in, even though he clearly saw her pick up the person when he looked out the window.
At this time, I finally heard a sound outside the yard, and saw a group of people walking towards this side with a smile on their faces.
But the next second, Ji Wenxue, who was at the door, walked briskly to the sofa near the door and sat down. He then took the newspaper on the coffee table and unfolded it in his hand. He put on his glasses and pretended to read the newspaper very seriously. However, his ears were listening to the sounds outside, and his attention was not on the newspaper but on the outside.
I heard my wife's happy laughter outside and said, "Yueyue, we are home. Let's go in. Your uncle is in the house."
Ji Wenxue immediately turned his attention to the newspaper. After hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he glanced at the door indifferently while holding the newspaper, and said calmly, "You're back."
"Huo, aren't you in the study, old man? Why did you suddenly make a noise while sitting here and scared me?" Bai Manjun shook his shoulders and patted his frightened heart.
Ji Wenxue felt bad that his wife was scared, and the sophisticated image he had just maintained for a second in front of the younger generation was shattered.
He didn't want to maintain his high image in front of the younger generation, and turned back into the wife slave he used to be. He poured a glass of water with apologetic look, bent over and handed it to his wife to apologize, and patted her back soothingly: "Drink some water to calm your nerves, are you feeling better?"
Later, when Ning Xiyue and his two siblings saw such a down-to-earth leader who loved his wife, the tension in their hearts was no longer there.
Especially Ning Qingzhi who came later. He had seen the serious and demanding leader on a certain occasion before, and now he suddenly saw such a different side of the leader. Suddenly he saw a trace of his father at home in the leader.
His nervous heart miraculously calmed down and he was no longer afraid of the leader.
"Okay, okay, take the tea away." Bai Manjun took a sip of the tea and handed it back, waving her hand in a disdainful manner: "Come here, didn't you see your son's girlfriend is here?"
Now that the false image of being tall and handsome had been shattered, the juniors all knew that he was a henpecked man, so Ji Wenxue stopped pretending and was not annoyed at all. He listened to his wife with a smile, put the teacup away obediently, and quickly moved over, looking at the juniors with a kind face.
Then Bai Manjun changed her face like a Sichuan opera, put on a smile, and pulled Ning Xiyue in with one foot still behind the door: "Come, Yueyue, come here."
"Hello uncle, I'm Ning Xiyue." Ning Xiyue smiled and nodded obediently to greet him.
She immediately realized that the most successful men are those who love, care for and fear their wives. If he is not successful, who will be successful?
Ning Qingyuan bowed slightly stiffly: "Hello uncle, I am Xiyue's second brother, Ning Qingyuan."
Although Ning Qingzhi was not too nervous, he stood straight unconsciously when Ji Wenxue looked at him, raised his right hand and saluted, his voice sonorous and powerful as if he was going to the battlefield: "Hello, Chief, I am Xiyue's elder brother, Ning Qingzhi."
"Okay, okay, you are all good girls and good boys." Ji Wenxue laughed heartily, then looked at Ning Qingzhi: "But don't call me Chief at home, call me Uncle."
"Okay, Chief."
Ning Qingzhi was so nervous that he called out "chief" again, which made everyone laugh again.
But this also made the atmosphere in the room relaxed, and no one was nervous anymore. Oh, no, the eldest brother was always tense.
"Everyone sit down and talk."
While directing her son to pour water, Bai Manjun smiled and asked everyone to sit down.
"Uncle and aunt, this is a gift for you. It's all dried goods that we picked ourselves when we were in the countryside."
Ning Xiyue handed over all the things, and the eldest and second brothers also stood up and handed over the gifts in their hands. Ning Xiyue focused on introducing the gifts for individuals.
"This is the sorghum wine I learned to brew from a master. This pack is made from wild Yunwu tea leaves picked from the mountains. I hope you like it, uncle."
Ning Xiyue handed a box of tea and a jar of wine tied with a red rope to Ji's father.
Ji Wenxue's eyes lit up when he saw the wine, and he quickly took it: "Oh, this kid is thoughtful, thank you, thank you, uncle likes it very much, let's have a drink together tonight."
Then he held the jar of wine tightly and refused to let go, fearing that his wife would take it away.
Seeing his promising look, Bai Manjun smiled and ignored him for the time being.
Because Ning Xiyue handed another box of things to her.
"This box is a gift for my aunt. I made it myself. It contains products that can moisturize, whiten, delay aging, and remove dark pigments in the skin. My mother, sister-in-law, and I are all using it. The effect is very good. I hope my aunt likes it."
"I love it so much. Thank you, Yueyue. Can I open it and take a look?"
Bai Manjun took the things with great joy. Her future daughter-in-law had a very pretty face and she knew she was good at making medicines. She was looking forward to the things inside.
Ning Xiyue nodded happily and sat over: "Of course, there is a booklet inside, you can look at the steps on it. I happen to be here, and I can also help you apply it on your face so that you can get familiar with how to use it."
"Okay, then I'll trouble Yueyue." Bai Manjun happily unpacked the package.
Ji Yanming saw that his two brothers-in-law were obviously a little reserved when talking to their father about studies and work, so he said while his father was drinking tea: "Mom and Dad, I'll take my eldest brother and second brother to move things first."
"Okay, go ahead. It's in the room next to yours, you know." Bai Manjun nodded in agreement and pointed to a room behind him.
"Okay." Ji Wenxue, who was sitting next to him holding a jar of wine, also nodded and continued to read the newspaper on the table.
The two brothers felt relieved. They greeted Ji's parents, gave Ning Xiyue an encouraging look, and then followed Ji Yanming to move things easily.
Ning Xiyue was fine. She could talk endlessly with Bai's mother about cosmetics. Then she turned her attention to Bai's mother who was unpacking the box, and while talking, she waited for her to open it and then began to teach her how to use it.
However, after Bai Manjun opened the box and saw what was inside, she screamed.
"ah-"
