Shangguan Yueying leisurely opened all three gift boxes and said, "A person who can make He Yiyuan call Jingze brother, who can make the Jiang family entrust the second daughter to him, and who has served as his assistant for several years, must have his strengths or abilities. Jianhao, look, Tiantian's gift is not light. It seems we should prepare a return gift."
Inside the light purple gift box was a safety lock, perfect for girls. Made of pure gold, it was intricately carved with lily patterns, symbolizing purity and beauty. A string of small bells hung beneath the lock, which rang out a sweet, melodious sound when gently swung.
Inside the pale pink gift box is a safety lock, also suitable for girls. The lock is made of pure gold, and its surface is engraved with delicate cherry blossoms. The petals are lifelike, as if swaying gently in the breeze. A pink gem is inlaid on the front of the lock, like a bright star, emitting a dreamy light.
Inside the sea-blue gift box is a safety lock suitable for boys. Made of pure gold, it features a simple, robust design. A majestic lion is engraved on the front, symbolizing courage and strength.
Each gift box contains not only a safety lock, but also a test certificate.
Lai Jianhao picked them up and looked at them, then said, "These are all made of pure gold. Each peace lock weighs more than 7 grams, so it must be at least more than 5,000 yuan each. Three peace locks, plus a 5,000 yuan red envelope, and gifts such as bird's nest, dendrobium, and American ginseng, I estimate that all the money added up to yuan."
Shangguan Yueying closed the box and said, "Tiantian spent over a month's salary on this. Honestly, she's really good to Shishi. It comes from the heart. Shishi and Xinxin will definitely be happy to receive a gift."
Lai Jianhao said, "Tiantian's salary now is sometimes more than 10,000 yuan a month, which is higher than before. However, it is true that she is missing the additional subsidies you gave her. Her salary was already high to begin with, and after being promoted to financial director, she received another raise. Even though she is pregnant, she sometimes helps the company with some orders, and the commission is still calculated on her."
Shangguan Yueying said, "She's able to get orders because of her ability. She can be a business manager, not just because of your help and mine. She's capable in her own right. Look at her enthusiasm for learning English, taking finance-related certificates, and studying with Shishi. We don't just give her opportunities, but she's the one who's most capable of seizing them."
Lai Jianhao said, "Tiantian is indeed capable, but the problem is that she not only has the ability, but also has support. Her father-in-law has a lot of connections in the local area. He just helped the company sign a 3 million order a while ago. Yi Yi is very happy. After all, if they can sign the first order, they will have the opportunity to sign the second one."
Shangguan Yueying extended her index finger and gently tapped her son's cheek. She said, "I originally wanted to choose someone to help Yi Yi. Tiantian's abilities and personal circumstances are suitable. After all, he's a local, so he was willing to return to a small rural town from a first-tier city to work. It seems the results have exceeded my expectations."
Lai Jianhao grabbed Shangguan Yueying's hand and said, "Aying, you can easily wake up our son like this, so be gentle. Tiantian usually doesn't take care of family matters, but the Liu family father and son value her and have helped Yiyi many times. They also want Yiyi to take care of Tiantian more. After all, she is pregnant now, and she doesn't work as hard as before they got married."
Shangguan Yueying said coquettishly, "Your son won't be woken up so easily. Son, son, hurry up and think of a name, otherwise you won't be able to think of a suitable name until the full moon. You know my mother calls him Big Fatty in private. If you don't come up with a name soon, it will become his nickname."
Shangguan Yueying has always been bright and beautiful. Although she is in confinement, she has a good aura and even more charm because she is well taken care of.
Lai Jianhao leaned over, kissed her forehead gently, and said, "Aying, thank you for your hard work. Thank you for bringing me three lovely babies. Speaking of naming, I'm really annoyed. Your parents and my three sisters all have their own suggestions. What do you think we should do? Lian Shishi also wants to name her brother."
The Lai family's room was spacious and bright, with the winter sun filtering through the beige gauze curtains, softly filling every corner of the room. Shangguan Yueying, seeing Lai Jianhao's aggrieved expression, softened her heart. "Then you and I will decide on a name, regardless of whether they agree or not."
Lai Jianhao smiled contentedly, "With my wife Lai's support, my father-in-law, mother-in-law, and three sisters are nothing; they'll all listen to you. Let's think of a name quickly and get the birth certificate. Also, I need to discuss the full-moon banquet with you."
Shangguan Yueying gently nudged Lai Jianhao and said, "Put the red envelopes and gifts away first. When Shishi and Xinxin come back, give them the gifts that Tiantian gave them immediately. I'm afraid I've neglected them recently and made them unhappy."
Lai Jianhao's eyes became determined, and he frowned slightly: "I won't ignore them, I won't let them down. Our Lai family doesn't favor boys over girls. Just look at my three sisters and you'll see how confident they are in life."
Shangguan Yueying smiled. She knew that the Lai family actually favored boys over girls, but they also valued ability and family affection. Lai Jianhao's three sisters were capable people, so they lived a good life. The relationship between the four siblings had always been very good, and they were very good to Lai Leshi and Lai Lexin.
