Chapter 1038: The Elder’s Gift, Cannot Be Declined
Upon hearing his son's words, Father Xiao put down the teacup in his hand and said, "I prepared this myself, how could I have taken the wrong one? A child's marriage is a lifelong event, but because of my selfishness, she has left regrets. This is my compensation to her. Moreover, she made the greatest contribution to my finding your mother in my lifetime. You can say it's my reward for her. Just let her keep it with peace of mind."
"Dad, does Aunt Miao know about this? Besides, isn't it too much?"
"This is something I've discussed with your Aunt Miao. Don't worry about it. Even if this matter is brought to light, no one will dare to say anything."
Father Xiao heard the old man's impatience: "Dad, I know, Chuxue is here, do you want to say a few words to her?"
Before the old man responded, he handed the phone over.
Chu Xue picked up the phone: "Grandpa, I heard what you said to my dad just now. Since it is your sincere intention and my aunt also knows it, then I will not be polite."
Old Master Xiao laughed and said, "That's right, you have the same temperament as your grandmother."
As he spoke, the old man's thoughts drifted away, and he thought of his lover in his youth.
Seeing him like this, Miao Yiqiu reached out and took the phone: "Chuxue, Auntie also prepared a little gift, but because it was sent from another place, I'm afraid it will take a few days for it to reach you."
No matter how thick-skinned I am, I feel a little embarrassed now: "Auntie, you have given me enough, I can't be too greedy."
Miao Yiqiu on the other end of the phone was full of admiration: "It's a gift from an elder, and I can't refuse it. Just keep it with peace of mind."
The reason why Miao Yiqiu cares so much about Chuxue is naturally because he has seen how good Chuxue has been to his own daughter during this period. This child is a person who values love and friendship, so naturally he wants to repay her.
After hanging up the phone, Father Xiao shouted into the room, "Brother Cheng."
I only heard a voice from inside: "Here it comes, here it comes."
As soon as the man came in, he smiled and said, "Are you done fighting?"
Father Xiao smiled and nodded: "It's over."
While handing over the phone bill, he smiled and said, "Next Saturday Chuxue is getting married. Come over for the wedding."
The Chengs had heard about this from their neighbors in the alley before, and when they heard the invitation, they said, "Be sure to be there. Uncle would like to congratulate Chuxue first."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the father and son walked back.
Father Xiao thought about what his grandfather said, and then thought about what his wife did today, with a face full of self-blame and guilt: "Chuxue, Dad."
Chu Xue knew what he wanted to say: "I understand, you don't need to say it anymore, but I want to say one more thing. From now on, you'd better not indulge my mother and Chun Xiao too much. And the baby is going to be born at the end of the month, you'd better pay more attention to it."
Father Xiao did not refute, knowing that Chuxue was right. Lamei and Chunxiao had indeed changed a lot after coming to the city, and their vanity had become more and more serious. If they were really left alone, this family would probably have difficulty in having peace in the future.
Xiao's mother had just made a cup of malted milk at home to replenish her nutrition, but she sneezed several times in a row and almost spilled the malted milk in the bowl.
She didn't know that it was because of what she did today that Xiao's father suddenly woke up. Even if she really gave birth to a son, Xiao's father would no longer indulge her as before.
Of course, this is a later story.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was Chuxue's wedding day.
Chu Xue did what she said and directly invited Sister Jiang from the factory to come and help take charge of the situation. With the help of several good colleagues from the department, and with their good eloquence, no one could find fault with them at all.
