Chapter 435: The Man Without Gifts

On the 28th of the lunar month, Lu Changjie came back.

The next day, he brought the gifts prepared by Shen Jiale and went to the Tang family in Haishi with Lu Changjun to give New Year gifts.

After returning, the four siblings were together every day.

They ate together, played cards together, and discussed the future trend of the market together, just like the scenes when they played and studied together when they were children.

Jack wanted to follow, but Lu Changxiao told him to find someone else to play with. Jack had to go find Cheng Kaixuan with a wronged face.

Cheng Kaixuan was writing next year's investment plan in the room. When he saw Jack come in, he just glanced at it and continued writing.

"Kaixuan, don't you feel sad that they don't let you join?"

Cheng Kaixuan said without raising his head: "The four siblings only get together once a year. It's normal that they don't want outsiders to disturb them."

"Are we outsiders? I'm Xiaoxiao's boyfriend, and I'll be their family in the future."

Seeing Jack's clingy attitude, Cheng Kaixuan advised: "Whether you are a couple or a husband and wife, you must give each other a certain amount of private space." Hearing

Cheng Kaixuan say this, Jack asked: "Are you really in love with Yanyan?"

Cheng Kaixuan raised his head: "We have been approved by both parents."

"You two don't look like a couple at all. Have you ever kissed?"

Cheng Kaixuan coughed with his hand against his mouth: "Jack, I'm Chinese and I'm more reserved. I won't discuss such private matters with others casually. You should also be careful not to reveal the things between you and Xiaoxiao casually."

"Of course, Xiaoxiao told me a long time ago."

Jack was bored, so he asked Cheng Kaixuan what gifts he prepared for the Lu family.

Cheng Kaixuan said that Lu Changyan prepared them.

Jack said proudly: "The gifts that Xiaoxiao gave to her family were prepared by me together."

...

On the night of New Year's Eve, the Lu family came together for dinner.

At the dinner table, the younger generations said blessings to the elders present, and Lu Yongfu and Liang Qiaoli began to give the children New Year's money.

This is also the custom of the Lu family.

When the four siblings were able to earn money, they proposed not to save money for the New Year, but the old couple insisted on giving it.

They would keep it if they were given it, and the old people would be happy if they received it, and they would also prepare gifts for the old people.

Lu Changyan and Lu Changxiao took out the gifts they prepared.

They both took out an exquisite jewelry box, and when they saw a piece, the sisters smiled at each other and opened the box.

The box was full of gold jewellery.

The two sisters each took a big gold bracelet and put it on Liang Qiaoli's wrist.

Liang Qiao raised her hand and said happily: "This gold bracelet is very heavy. It must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Jack said first: "It didn't cost much. Xiaoxiao and I designed and made it together."

Liang Qiaoli praised the big gold bracelet for its exquisite workmanship and she liked it very much.

Lu Yongfu glanced at his granddaughter's jewelry box, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

The two sisters each took out a gold ring from the jewelry box and asked Lu Yongfu to hold out their hands.

Lu Yongfu couldn't help but raise his lips: "Just give it to your grandmother. Why would an old man like me wear jewelry?"

Lu Changxiao said: "This is specially customized according to your grandpa's fingers. Only you can wear it."

Lu Yongfu smiled and said: "Then I will wear it. No one else can wear it. Don't waste it." Then he cooperated and held out his two hands for his granddaughter to wear.

The two sisters each took out a pair of earrings and bracelets and gave them to Zhou Min and Tao Xinran.

Zhou Min didn't expect that the two sisters also prepared gifts for her, and quickly declined: "For your mother, I am usually busy and it is not suitable for me to wear jewelry."

Shen Jiale said: "The children gave it to you, so you should keep it. These are all the cakes they drew when they were young. It can be regarded as fulfillment. We all have them."

Shen Jiale said so. Although Zhou Min has no daughter, she was happy to have her niece give her jewelry, so she accepted it.

Tao Xinran took the two bracelets and said thank you.

Lu Changguo touched his wife's belly and said: "Xinran, we also gave birth to a little lady, and the lady is still caring. I didn't even think about preparing gifts for my parents and grandparents."

When the Lu family heard this, they were all surprised.

Zhou Min asked excitedly, "Xinran, are you pregnant?"

Tao Xinran nodded shyly, "Everyone was busy at home before the New Year, so I forgot to tell Mom."

Zhou Min slapped her thigh happily, "I'm going to have a granddaughter too!"

Tao Xinran said embarrassedly, "Mom, we don't know yet if it's a boy or a girl."

Zhou Min hurriedly said, "I'm so happy. I like them both, whether they're grandsons or granddaughters!"

When Liang Qiaoli heard that her granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, she went to the room, wrapped another big red envelope, and handed it to Tao Xinran.

Tao Xinran quickly declined: "Grandma, you have already given it to me."

Liang Qiaoli said happily: "This is for my great-grandson."

Tao Xinran thanked Liang Qiaoli and took out a bag: "I knitted scarves for grandpa and grandma. It is not as valuable as the ones given by Yanyan and Xiaoxiao. Please don't mind it."

Liang Qiaoli took it and took out the scarf inside, feeling extremely happy.

Seeing that everyone had a gift, Lu Changdong complained to Lu Changguo: "Brother, only the three of us, father and son, have no gifts."

Lu Changguo said: "I have, and your sister-in-law also knitted scarves for my parents."

Lu Changdong looked at the Lu Changjun brothers again, thinking that these two had just given New Year gifts to the Tang family, so they must have returned gifts, not to mention Cheng Kaixuan and Jack.

Lu Changdong's face fell instantly: "I guess I'm the only one who didn't get a gift."

Seeing his expression, everyone burst into laughter.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, the Lu family welcomed the new year with laughter.

...

On the first day of the new year.

The Lu family got up and greeted each other.

Jack came to Lu Changxiao's room and handed her a red envelope with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, Happy New Year!"

Lu Changxiao said: "Red envelopes are for elders to give to younger people, you don't need to give me a red envelope."

Jack stuffed the red envelope into Lu Changxiao's hand: "I see everyone is very happy to receive red envelopes and gifts, I want one too."

"Didn't Dad, Mom, Grandpa and Grandma give you red envelopes?"

"I want you to give it to me."

Seeing that Jack was like a child, Lu Changxiao had to get up to wrap the red envelope, but Jack grabbed it and kissed her face deeply: "This is the gift I want most!"

Lu Changxiao chuckled and kissed him back.

...

Jack got the best New Year's gift, and he walked with a flutter. When he saw Cheng Kaixuan, he trotted over.

"Kaixuan, did you receive the New Year's gift?"

"We all received red envelopes yesterday."

"I mean, did Yanyan give you a gift? My Xiaoxiao gave me a gift that suits my heart very well."

Cheng Kaixuan suddenly felt a little annoyed with Jack, said yes, and went to Lu Changyan's room.

"What do you want most?"

Lu Changyan asked when Cheng Kaixuan came in, and answered casually: "The bidding for the building in the industrial park."

Cheng Kaixuan was also bidding for this bidding, which was quite difficult, so he said: "Change it."

"Nothing else for now."

"Jack said that he and Xiaoxiao gave each other gifts. Have you prepared any for me?"

Lu Changyan glanced at Cheng Kaixuan: "I have prepared gifts for your family. Does the agreement also require me to prepare a gift for you?"

Cheng Kaixuan touched his nose awkwardly: "No, I just asked casually."
