Chapter 195 Giving Gifts
Jinran and Gu Siyan walked downstairs hand in hand. Grandma Gu looked at Gu Siyan disapprovingly, then pulled Jinran to her side and glared at Gu Siyan.
Gu Siyan chuckled and said, "What's wrong with me holding my wife's hand? Grandma, you're hindering your grandson's happiness."
Grandma Gu scolded, "Get out of here, you brat, you're a bastard."
Gu Siyan fell silent. This is her biological grandmother, isn't she? She's her own mother, isn't she?
At this time, Mr. and Mrs. Gu also returned, but there was still no news from Professor Gu. Grandma Gu said that they shouldn't wait any longer and that everyone should eat first.
Gu Siyan said he would try to call and contact his grandfather to see what was going on.
After Gu Siyan finished the call and came back, he said, "I'll be home soon. Something came up over there and I was held up."
Jinran figured she had nothing better to do, so she decided to send out gifts!
Then he opened the package and gave everyone the gifts he had prepared.
"Aunt Qu, this bracelet is for you. It's the same as my mother's, but hers has a peony design. My mother likes more elaborate designs, but I thought you'd prefer something simpler, so I picked this orchid one out because I thought it was very unique. Grandma also has one; I think its meaning of wealth and longevity is particularly auspicious..."
Jinran took care of everything, bringing bags and clothes for Gu Siyan's brother and sister-in-law.
Finally, he handed the watch to Mr. Gu, saying, "Uncle Gu, this is the watch I picked out for you. It's not expensive in Hong Kong, and it looks very elegant. The key point is that the gifts for everyone were made from Gu Siyan's personal savings."
Mother Gu laughed and said, "That's right, let this kid bleed a little. He's been swindling money from his pocket since he was a child. Who in our family hasn't been robbed by him? Even his two older brothers weren't spared. We've never seen a penny back in all these years. Now, my daughter-in-law has given us a big gift. I'm so happy."
Gu Siyan discussed the position of a person's "brother" in his family.
Jinran laughed along with him; she really didn't know Gu Siyan was such a scoundrel.
Amidst the laughter and chatter, Professor Gu returned, beaming with pride. He chuckled and said, "In the future, I'll have plenty to brag about when I take the younger generation to the museum. They'll just point to the large glazed vase and know all about my great achievements."
Everyone was "..............." There are always people better than you, each lesson is stronger than the last.
Mr. Gu stated that he was the only one in the family with impeccable revolutionary credentials.
The dumplings were ready, and Jinran happily ate a lot. Satisfied, she said, "Aunt Liu, you have to teach me! This filling is so delicious! I learned to make sauerkraut filling from my grandma. I know how to make sauerkraut filling. Aunt Liu, I'll teach you too, let's exchange skills!"
Aunt Liu was amused and laughed heartily, saying, "That's wonderful!"
Everyone laughed, and the meal made everyone happy.
Even Mr. Gu, who doesn't usually smile much, softened a bit.
Gu Siyan escorted Jinran home and helped her carry the package upstairs. He then lingered, refusing to leave. Jinran asked in confusion, "Why aren't you leaving? It's getting dark. I'm not going to make you a midnight snack."
Gu Siyan… Did he really not give any response at all?
Yes, there really is.
Jinran took out the watch and showed it off, "Look, this is a couple's watch I bought for us. I really like this brand, but it's super expensive, so be careful when you wear it, okay? This thing is like a walking wallet."
Gu Siyan said, "No, he felt something was still missing."
Jinran looked at Gu Siyan, who was still silent, and asked again in confusion, "What's wrong with you? Did you offend your great-grandmother?"
Gu Siyan slammed the table down!
"What happened to the wedding rings we agreed on?"
Jinran suddenly realized what was going on. She rummaged through the package, took out the box containing the wedding rings, and said with a smile, "I can forget, but next time you're unhappy, just tell me. Don't make me guess. I don't like that."
Gu Siyan nodded obediently, took the box and opened it. Inside was a pair of very simple wedding rings, but she liked them very much.
Gu Siyan took out the women's ring and put it on Jinran's finger, then stretched out his own claw and said to Jinran, "You put it on me too."
Jinran obediently did as she was told.
Then Gu Siyan laughed like an idiot.
Jinran impatiently shooed her away, "Go on, I have to go back to school tomorrow to check off my leave, I'm very busy. Goodbye!"
Gu Siyan looked at his hands without saying a word and then went out.
Jinran: "............" Doesn't he want a kiss? Ha, men!
