Chapter 750 Show off
Chen Yu happened to hear Chen Xuan's words when he came in. After seeing his father, Chen Xuan seemed to be less courageous, "Dad, I just said it casually!"
Chen Yu ignored Chen Xuan and looked towards Zhang Juexia. "My son's suggestion is very good, but I wonder if Madam Ye is happy with it."
Zhang Juexia raised her head and looked at Ye Beixiu, waiting for him to help her make a decision.
Chen Yu understood and turned his gaze to Ye Beixiu, "Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
Ye Beixiu stood in front of Zhang Juexia, and with his right hand, he took her to his side, "As for this matter, I will listen to my wife.
Madam, what do you think of Master Chen and Master Chen's proposal?"
Zhang Juexia looked at the expectant eyes of Mrs. Chen, Chen Yu and Chen Xuan, and nodded in excitement.
"well!"
Chen Yu was the first to say hello.
"Madam, please give me the gift quickly!"
Mrs. Chen finally reacted and hurriedly took off a jade bracelet from her arm and put it on Zhang Juexia's hand. "This bracelet was given to me by my mother. It has been with me for many years. Today I give it to you as a meeting gift."
Zhang Juexia knew the bracelet was expensive as soon as she saw its color. She tried to refuse, but Chen Yu stopped her, "Juexia, accept it quickly! This is a gift from your mother!"
Chen Xuan also helped out, "Sister Juexia, just accept it quickly!
Otherwise, my mother would definitely feel bad."
Ye Beixiu also nodded to Zhang Juexia, indicating that she should accept it.
"Thank you, godmother!"
Zhang Juexia accepted it generously, but when he knelt down to salute, his belly was a little big and he could barely squat.
"My dear child, I dare not accept your gift at this moment."
Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let's have a simple recognition ceremony first.
After Juexia gives birth to the child, we will hold a grand recognition ceremony."
Madam Chen nodded with satisfaction, "When we return to the capital, we will have a daughter."
During the meal, everyone changed their names to address each other. Chen Xuan looked at Ye Beixiu and said, "I just called you Brother Ye, but now I have to change it to brother-in-law."
Everyone started laughing.
The meal was naturally very lively.
Wu Qian, who was busy working in the county government office, learned that his uncle had adopted a goddaughter and sent a gift.
He was very envious of his uncle's family living so comfortably in Zhang Juexia's house.
"Uncle, there's no way for my nephew to go back to the capital to celebrate the New Year this year.
Or? This year, my nephew's family will celebrate the New Year with my uncle's family.
There are more people, and it’s more lively.”
How could Chen Yu not understand Wu Qian's thoughts? He thought to himself, I am spending the New Year at someone else's house, and you are still spending the New Year with me.
Then I thought, that’s not right, I am now at my own daughter’s house.
"I can't make the decision on this matter. You have to ask my daughter, your cousin. If she agrees, I will agree too."
Wu Qian had long expected his uncle to say this, and he grinned, "I've heard that cousin Jue Xia is a good cook. I didn't have the chance before, but now I have the chance, and I must try it.
I'm going to talk to her now."
The county magistrate found Zhang Juexia and asked to have dinner at his home.
How dare Zhang Juexia refuse without waiting for her to say anything polite?
Wu Qian continued, "Cousin, this meal is not for free. When my nephew comes out, I will give him a big red envelope."
"this?"
Zhang Juexia touched her round belly and thought to herself, "You must remember what this adult said. When you are born, if he doesn't give you a big red envelope, we will have to ask for it back."
The snow fell for several days in a row and didn't stop until the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Madam Chen looked at the thick snow on the ground and said to Zhang Juexia, "I'm afraid your grandparents won't be able to come to the county town."
"Of course not. But there's nothing missing at home, and they can have a good New Year at home."
"Um!"
It seems that Zhang Juexia and Madam Chen don't need to make preparations before the New Year, as Li Yun has already made all the arrangements.
Ye Beixiu was in charge of the affairs of the shops. Now, except for the hot pot shop which would be closed on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, all other shops were closed.
Several families in the county town who were familiar with Zhang Juexia sent New Year gifts in advance.
Zhang Juexia had already started preparations for Old Lady Shen in Qingfeng City and had someone send the gifts before it snowed.
When Ye Beixiu went to Qingfeng City to do business, he and Shen Liang had already settled the affairs of Qingfeng City.
Zhang Juexia suddenly felt like a free man. If Mrs. Chen hadn't been by his side, he would have been even more lonely.
Since Mrs. Chen adopted Zhang Juexia as her daughter, she has taken even better care of her.
Let Zhang Juexia truly feel the mother's love.
Ye Beixiu also felt that it was good to recognize this relative. After all, his wife was about to give birth, and having an elder by her side was the best thing.
After Li Yiran's shop closed for the holiday, he felt awkward at home, so he came to talk to Zhang Juexia.
Zhang Juexia was naturally eager to do so, so he asked Li Yun to bring up all the delicious food made in the kitchen, so that Li Yiran could eat while chatting.
"Juexia, it turns out your family also prepares these New Year's gifts!"
"What else? How are we going to celebrate the New Year if we don't plan?"
“That’s right!”
Li Yiran sighed, "Next year I won't be able to celebrate the New Year in the county town."
"Next year you will be with your Mr. Wu, that's a good thing!"
"Although it's a good thing, I still can't bear to leave my parents."
Zhang Juexia rolled his eyes, looking at the troubled Li Yiran, not knowing what to do. "Yiran, if you can't bear to leave your parents, why did you come to my house instead of staying at home with them?"
"I do think they are so busy every day that they don't even have time to talk to me."
"Then you go and lend a hand too!"
"I do want to, but they want me to rest. I haven't even started working and they're kicking me out."
Come on, Zhang Juexia understood that Li Yiran was showing off to her that someone loved her!
However, this year she also felt the same way about Li Yiran, because that was how Mrs. Chen treated her.
She hasn't done anything yet, but I'm afraid she's tired.
After Li Yiran finished talking about his family's affairs, he remembered something important and said to Zhang Juexia mysteriously, "Did you know about the fight between Qin Ze and Li Qi?"
"I know! I happened to be passing by that day and even saw it with my own eyes!"
"Oh, then do you know what our magistrate's verdict was?"
Zhang Juexia shook his head. "I don't know. Tell me about it."
"Our magistrate is quite interesting.
He said that no matter who is right or wrong, fighting in the street is wrong.
For the sake of Shunhe County's stability, they must all be detained until the end of the Lunar New Year.
