After having dinner with her parents, Lin Yue used the excuse of going out for a beauty treatment and took Xiao Jingyun shopping.
Modern streets are not like those in ancient times. In order to protect customers from getting wet in the rain, good shops have long corridors built outside to shelter them from the rain, and customers can walk past them one by one.
So they went straight to the mall. Lin Yue hadn't been there for a long time and felt dazzled.
She held Xiao Jingyun's hand tightly, worried about losing him.
After buying him two suits, Lin Yue smiled and said, "I'll bring you here today, and you bring them here tomorrow."
"If they want money, let them exchange it with me in exchange for spirit stones."
Xiao Jingyun said: "I thought you gave them one set each."
Lin Yue said, "I'm afraid they'll suddenly take out some magical weapon, gold, or spiritual stones, and scare my parents."
"Let them behave themselves and follow our rules."
Xiao Jingyun responded with a smile.
After buying clothes, it’s time to buy supplements.
I have already bought the most expensive one, but it is actually not as good as the spiritual herbs in the space.
Xiao Jingyun said, "Wait until I get back and put the longevity pill and beauty pill in there."
Lin Yue said, "We have to take it slow in modern times. Their ability to accept things isn't as strong as it was in ancient times, because there are so few reclusive cultivators in this world."
"We'll go back later and pick some tea leaves in the space."
"They soaked a little bit each time and felt good after eating it. Their bodies gradually showed changes."
"Then you'll call it golden buds. They're different from the ones sold on the market. They come from your ancient tea trees, and there's only about two kilograms a year."
"Because they think it's good and give it to others to drink, it would be a waste of trouble."
Xiao Jingyun asked, "Do you still find it troublesome?"
Lin Yue said: "It's different. When my parents give me gifts, they always give me good things that we can't afford to eat at home. In the past, they would give me things like wild honey, bird's nest, donkey glue, etc."
"Besides, they wouldn't be willing to eat anything sent by their son-in-law. Maybe they'll wait for guests to come and make some tea to praise you."
"So you have to be frank. It's rare. Only your family members are willing to eat it."
“They knew they couldn’t give it away.”
Xiao Jingyun nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
…
The next day, Xiao Jingyun brought his parents and brother and sister-in-law to visit the Lin family.
They also bought three cars in a decent shape, but no one knew how to drive them, so the people from the car dealership helped them drive them.
It was a brand new car with a temporary license plate still hanging on it. The Lin family across the street was very confused.
Shen Congyun explained generously: “When we met Ah Yue for the first time, we elders didn’t know what to give her, so we bought three cars to come here.”
"Once you've chosen one, go get the license plate."
Lin's father and mother looked at each other and thought that this family was willing to do so, but they didn't know what their family background was.
Lin Yue gave her mother-in-law a thumbs up, saying that she was worthy of being the queen mother, and she was really good at making things perfect.
Then several people went into the house. The private restaurant was closed today, but customers still came one after another.
The chefs didn't even take a break, originally just to entertain the Xiao family. Seeing this, Shen Congyun suggested: "Since the guests are here, let's ask them to stay."
"I can help out."
As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and went to pick vegetables.
Mother Lin hurried to stop him, but Shen Congyun was quick and had already taken the apron and tied it on.
He said, "You're welcome. We've also been through hard times. Doing business these days is not easy. Having guests is a happy occasion and we can't turn them away."
As he was speaking, Xu Zhiman also joined in.
Xiao Jingxian asked, "Do you need to chop wood? I have plenty of strength."
Everyone laughed and shook their heads.
Father Lin said, "My home cooking is mainly stir-fried, stewed, and steamed. We usually use electricity and gas, not firewood."
"The place next door makes firewood chicken, and they use firewood."
As she said that, she took the men to the box.
Mother Lin also pulled Shen Congyun and Xu Zhiman over.
The Xiao family and the Lin family could prepare one table together, so the kitchen had enough time.
Soon, the conversation in the box became lively.
Shen Congyun said that their ancestors worked for the royal family and had some savings. Later, due to the reform, they went to the countryside to farm.
After farming for a few years and saving some money, he went abroad to work hard.
Xiao Jingyun returned to China early, and they just came back a few days ago.
Mother Lin asked worriedly, "Are you leaving in a few days?"
Shen Congyun said: “I’m originally from here, I won’t leave.”
"This time I come back, I plan to invest in a local pharmaceutical factory."
"We'll need your help in introducing them when the time comes. We're not familiar with the local pharmaceutical companies."
"But we also run a pharmaceutical factory outside, which is very profitable and we have experience."
When she heard that they were going to settle down, Lin's mother finally felt relieved.
Looking at Xiao Jingyun again, the young man was good-looking, energetic, and of good height.
The most important thing is to be polite and natural to others, without being deliberate or artificial.
He exchanged glances with his daughter, and it was obvious that there was a foundation of affection between them.
She felt more relieved knowing that it was not rented by her daughter.
Mother Lin asked, "Are you here today to propose marriage?"
Chen Congyun said, "I just came here today to visit and get acquainted with the place. This little bit of money is not enough for the betrothal gift. Ah Yue is our family's chosen daughter-in-law. We will definitely treat her with respect and will never let her suffer any injustice."
Thinking of the three newly picked-up cars outside, Mother Lin thought that the attitude was okay.
I just don't know how much money he has. Will he be on guard against his daughter in the future? She is not greedy, but if he is on guard before she gets married, she is worried that her daughter will have a hard time in the future.
Then he asked, "We originally planned to give our daughter a villa and a car as a dowry. Since the car has already been bought, we will also give her a house as a dowry."
