The others also unwrapped their gifts, and the old man conveyed Shen Jiazhou's words in their entirety.
Although it may not seem like much to everyone here, it's still eight million! That's eight million! Asking them to give that to a child they've never even met would break anyone's heart, right? They only give their own children birthday gifts worth a few million!
Shen Jiazhou is determined to take back all the gifts he's confiscated over the past few years!
But they only dared to curse in private; on the surface, they still smiled and laughed.
Shen Jiazhou watched as they unwrapped their gifts one by one. The gifts were mostly worth over eight million. Apart from the old man and Shen Fang's family, among everyone at the table, Gu Xingyuan's gift was the most expensive.
A group of people surnamed Shen couldn't even compare to one person with a different surname. He couldn't help but laugh when he thought of how Shen Fang had jumped up and down in front of him that day.
Reminded by Gu Xingyuan, Cancan thanked each of the people who gave him the gifts.
Although there were many gifts, he liked the gifts from his uncle and Uncle Xingyuan the most. After all, the gifts from others didn't seem to be suitable for him to play with, so it was more appropriate to give them to his uncle.
Wen Shuqiao noticed it too; she squeezed Cancan's little hand, sending him strength.
Can Can whispered, "Auntie, I'm hungry."
Wen Shuqiao lowered her head slightly and whispered, "We'll be eating soon. What would you like to eat first?"
Can Can glanced at it and said, "I want to eat chicken legs."
Wen Shuqiao pinched his cheek: "Okay."
She straightened up, turned her head to Shen Jiazhou and said, "Cancan is hungry, he wants to eat chicken legs."
Shen Jiazhou glanced at the plate of poached chicken that had just been turned to face him, picked up the serving chopsticks, and put the chicken leg into Cancan's bowl: "Now that you've seen the gifts, let's eat."
He then looked at Wen Shuqiao and said, "You eat too, don't worry about them."
Wen Shuqiao nodded. She didn't want to pay attention to them. The main characters were Can Can and Shen Jiazhou. She only needed to take care of Can Can's feelings.
Can Can looked at the chicken leg in the bowl, hesitated for a moment, and only after hearing her aunt say that it was okay to eat did she put on the children's gloves and pick up the chicken leg to eat.
He took a bite, then put it down.
Wen Shuqiao noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cancan whispered again, "It has no taste."
He still thinks his aunt's chicken drumsticks are the best, and he's starting to miss going home.
Wen Shuqiao said, "This might need to be dipped in water."
But this table is a rotating table, and the poached chicken has already been moved. Can Can doesn't want to eat this chicken leg anymore; although it still smells quite nice, it has no flavor at all.
But so many people are watching me, and my aunt said we can't waste food.
Oh dear, I'm so conflicted!
As the Shen family began unwrapping their gifts, the system, which had remained silent until now, suddenly spoke up again: "...Give this to Uncle Xingyuan."
Cancan said, "If it doesn't taste good, why give it to Uncle Xingyuan? Besides, Uncle Xingyuan isn't a garbage can."
The system replied: "It's not that you don't like it."
"But we can't give it to Uncle Xingyuan," Cancan insisted. "I'll keep it and take it back for the milk and cake."
My aunt said that you shouldn't eat salty or sweet things with milk and cake, so this chicken leg is perfect!
Just as he was feeling pleased with his idea, the bowl in front of him was taken away.
Can Can looked over and saw that her aunt had replaced the bowl that didn't taste good. Now it was an empty bowl! There was still a piece of boneless fish inside.
Wen Shuqiao said, "Eat up, aren't you hungry?"
Can Can happily picked up his chopsticks and ate the fish that his aunt had picked out for him. It tasted delicious!
When Shen Jiazhou announced the start of the banquet, the others couldn't very well say "wait a minute" anymore, so they all picked up their chopsticks and started making a lively scene, trying their best to keep the atmosphere from becoming too awkward.
But they didn't know what to say. However, they were probably not the most embarrassed. The most embarrassed people were the Shen family sitting next to Old Master Shen.
Since Shen Jiazhou and Cancan appeared, they haven't said a word. They usually sing and dance all the time, but when it comes to this moment, they're completely silent. It's funny to think about.
