On the way back, Ning Xiyue took out the two boxes, opened them and handed them to Ji Yanming.
"These two were given to me by my aunt, take a look."
Ji Yanming took a look at the things, and when he saw the mutton-fat white jade bracelet among them, his eyes were filled with smiles.
"I know everything. Just take it with peace of mind. Mom loves you very much. Don't feel burdened. Mom also gave it to my sister-in-law when she first came to our house. It's just that the things she prepared are different according to your preferences. Just keep it."
After letting him take a look, Ning Xiyue quickly closed the two boxes and put them away.
Seeing that Ji Yanming was in a good mood, she couldn't help but want to tease him, so she went over and deliberately asked:
"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away with these two goodies and stop being your wife?"
Ji Yanming's eyes were serious, and he spoke slowly in a low voice.
"Don't be afraid. I believe in Yueyue and myself. If you don't marry me, it must be because I did something extremely wrong, but I won't let that moment come."
At this moment, when he looked at Ning Xiyue, his brows relaxed again, and a smile slowly spread across the corners of his mouth:
"So, you can't get away, Yueyue. I won't refund or exchange the goods once they're sold to you. I'm already relying on you."
"Look at you."
Ning Xiyue turned her head to the side, the corner of her mouth was raised, and she waved her hands with a helpless but smiling tone:
"Go ahead and deny it! As long as you respect and love Ji's father like Ji's mother does, and my father loves my mother like he has for ten years, you can deny it as much as you want."
"Yes, Chief!" Ji Yanming responded with a smile.
Ning Xiyue touched the box in her bag and was in a good mood.

On the other side, Ning's father had been hanging around the door for a long time. Sometimes he would look outside, sometimes he would take a walk in the alley, and after returning he would sit in the yard drinking tea. His eyes would always be on the door, and he would stand up and look outside when he heard any movement.
He muttered, "Why hasn't the girl come back yet? It's so late, and she doesn't even know how to come home."
"I said, can you please be quiet for a while? My daughter knows she's coming back. It's not dark yet, why are you in such a hurry? Come and help me water the pepper seeds I'm planting."
Yun Xiulan, who had cultivated a vegetable garden nearby, was carrying a roll of plastic sheeting and sorting it out. "The plastic sheeting Xiaoji brought is quite thick. This large sheet can probably cover the entire garden and keep the vegetables warm. They should be able to grow well."
"I was wondering how you could be bribed by a bundle of plastic sheeting. You didn't even worry about your daughter until she came home."
Ning Hai said this anxiously, but his body was still honest and went to fetch water to water the chili seeds he had just sown.
The sound of a car stopping outside the door and Ning Xiyue's voice were heard.
Yun Xiulan calmly raised her chin towards that direction: "Yes, I'm back now."
Put down the plastic sheet and walk towards the door.
Ning Hai put down the melon gourd and ran over.
"You're back, Xiao Ji, come sit inside for a while." Yun Xiulan invited warmly.
After Ji Yanming went in and sat down, he wanted to first greet his parents and secondly, ask Ning's parents when they would be free so that both parents could meet and get to know each other.
Finally, the two parties discussed and agreed to arrange the meeting on the day of moving into the new house, and both parties sat down together for a meal.
After confirming it, Ji Yanming said goodbye and left the Ning family.
As soon as Ji Yanming left, Ning's father and mother sat on Ning Xiyue's left and right, pulling her aside to ask questions.
Yun Xiulan asked three times in a row, "How is it? Are his family members treating you well? What's their attitude like? Is there anything that makes you feel uncomfortable?"
Ning Hai then asked again, "Are his family members easy to get along with? Have you ever been wronged?"
"Mom and Dad, you asked so many questions at once, let's go through them one by one." Ning Xiyue said with a helpless smile.
Yun Xiulan took Ning Xiyue's hand and said, "Answer what Mom asked first."
"His parents were very kind and friendly to me, and they loved me very much. I also got along very well with his aunt.
Uncle looks serious when he's not smiling, but he's very kind to us younger ones. More importantly, like my father, he's a man who loves his wife and puts her first. This makes me feel very comfortable."
After Ning Xiyue answered her mother's question, she looked at her father and said:
"His family treats others with impeccable hospitality. Otherwise, his father wouldn't have been able to become a teacher, and his mother wouldn't have been able to become the head of the art troupe. They get along very naturally. They are all kind people, just like my parents. Of course, your daughter is so outstanding, no one would dislike her. As long as I don't want to, no one can let me suffer."
Ning Xiyue said the last few sentences, winked at her parents playfully, and boasted with her hands on her hips without any modesty.
Yun Xiulan and Ning Hai smiled and felt relieved. Seeing their daughter like this, they knew that this meeting was good.
Yunmu pulled Ning Xiyue aside and asked her about the adults' reactions when she gave gifts, the dishes at the meal, and other things.
After Ning Xiyue explained everything to them, they came to the conclusion that this family was good.
Finally, Ning Xiyue took out the two boxes, showed them to her parents quietly, and said in a low voice:
"His mother gave it to me. Look, this is a golden dog made according to my zodiac sign. This bracelet is even more amazing. It was my aunt's dowry. Feel it and feel it. It should be made of top-grade white jade. It was worth a lot of money in the past.
She also reminded me to wear it in private and not to take it outside, and to wear it when I could wear it again. That’s when I realized that Auntie is a good person.”
Yun Xiulan looked at it and quickly closed the box.
"Then put it away quickly. You have to pack this thing away. Don't let anyone see it, and don't tell anyone else. Not even your brother and sister-in-law can do that. Got it?"
