Chapter 609: Sister and Brother Share Gifts



Sure enough, there is no woman who doesn't love these things. Chen Meiyu and Li Fang had seen the world in their early years and knew that although these things looked valuable, their value would not be exaggerated, so it was natural for them to put them away.

The two sisters-in-law felt a little embarrassed, "Manman, this is too expensive, you should keep it for yourself."

Xu Manman pushed back the hand of her second cousin's wife, Li Han, and said, "I bought the same things for all the sisters-in-law. A friend gave me a discount, so they're not that expensive. Take them home and play with them. Besides, Jianguo and I have been away from home for the past two years, and your parents have relied on you to take care of them. These things are nothing."

Oh, by the way, Mom, I've also made preparations for my sister-in-law and Hai City. I can't go back for a while, so can you help me send it when the time comes?"

Chen Meiyu said, "Leave it to your aunt. See if there's anyone in the army passing by recently who can help take it over. These things can't be sent directly."

Although her daughter may not care much about these things, money is tempting, so she dare not send them all away by post, in case they are replaced on the way.

Li Fang nodded and said, "Leave Manman to me, Auntie will arrange it." There are special lines within the army. Although private use is not allowed, it is still possible to ask someone to do a favor.

Xu Manman took out a bunch of boxes from the suitcase. Except for her sister-in-law's, her uncle and aunt, her third uncle and aunt, her cousins, and the boy from her eldest cousin's family, all of them were included.

She was also thoughtful enough to mark the boxes in advance so that no one would make the mistake.

The men were still in the main house, and Xu Manman also brought their gifts over.

All boys wear watches and pens, but the styles vary according to their ages. Considering that everyone wears them to work, Xu Manman did not choose gold watches or diamond-studded styles.

Xu Lei and Xu Gang immediately changed their watches to new ones. Xu Jianjun and Chen Ming both bought watches with their wives when they got married. They had similar meanings to wedding rings, so they put the boxes away, but they were all very happy.

Jin Zichu didn't have any worries and happily replaced his old watch like the two brothers.

At this time, Xu Jianguo, who had been lingering in the house for a long time, finally came in.

"Huh? Sis, you've even distributed the gifts so quickly?"

"Yeah." Space takes a quick shower.

Seeing this, Xu Jianguo turned around and distributed the gifts he brought to everyone.

The two siblings brought their own things. Xu Jianguo was not as wealthy as his sister, who could not afford jewelry and watches. The things he brought were mainly cost-effective, such as coffee, black tea, and chocolate. They did not cost much, and the sentiment behind them was great.

Although the funds were all sponsored by his sister, he also bought them by comparing prices in the market.

After Xu Jianguo distributed the gifts, it was already late, so Xu Jianjun drove them to school. Jin Zichu had to prepare a new courtyard for Xu Manman, so he didn't go with them. However, Chen Ming, an associate professor at Peking University and Tsinghua University, did come with them.

In the car, Xu Manman asked, "Second brother, do you know how to get a driver's license now?"

Before Xu Jianjun could say anything, Chen Ming turned around from the passenger seat and asked, "What's up? Manman, you want to buy a car again?"

Chen Ming was the first to know her financial strength, so he directly discovered Xu Manman's intention.

"Well, having a car makes everything more convenient, but it seems that getting a driver's license and buying a car here are not that easy now."

"I'll ask someone to help you with the driver's license in a couple of days, but why didn't you get your car back in the first place?" Xu Jianjun said with a hint of regret. He had only driven some military vehicles in his life and had never driven a car.

"Brother, I only bought that car for a few thousand dollars. If I get it back, the money would be enough to buy a new one. Besides, it's bright red, so it's too conspicuous to use here."

Xu Jianjun nodded, "Indeed, you wait a little longer. Use the bicycle for a while. I'll ask my comrades to help you with the bicycle issue."

"Okay, thank you, second brother."

Xu Jianguo, who has no job and no income and relies on his sister for living expenses, did not participate in this topic, but if his sister really bought a car, he could use it.

They soon arrived at Peking University and Tsinghua University. The car did not drive into the school. The four of them walked in through the main gate.

Xu Manman looked around and said, "Those buildings over there are newly built, right? They weren't there when I graduated and left."

Xu Jianguo had been gone for two years, and he wasn't very clear about some of the changes. "The teaching building in the front was built when I was there, and the ones in the back were probably built in the past two years."

Chen Ming nodded. "Yes, some teaching funds have been approved for colleges and universities in the past two years, and most of them have been used for construction."
