To prepare for welcoming her family, Yao Huixian started making preparations well in advance. She bought a lot of groceries from the guesthouse, had Qin Jinye use his connections to get beef, and even had someone buy local produce from the countryside.
A large table full of dishes was prepared, and Yao Huixian's parents, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephews, and nieces all wore satisfied smiles upon seeing it.
Although his father-in-law's arrival delayed his trip, Qin Jinye was very good at handling people and put on a very proper demeanor, so his father-in-law's smile never faded.
In front of the Yue family, Yao Huixian was given plenty of face.
"Old Qin, don't just drink, eat some food." Yao Huixian smiled and served Qin Jinye a lot of food, showing her great thoughtfulness.
Qin Jinye glanced at her and put some food on her plate, saying, "Don't bother, you should eat more too."

Mr. Yao smiled and nodded, "You're right, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. But this child has admired you, his uncle, since he was little, and he says every day that he wants to become someone like you. I was thinking that he should learn from you, so as not to waste this child's pure heart. What do you think?"
Qin Jinye looked terrified. "Look at what you're saying, Dad. You've already spoken up, how could I possibly disagree?"
Mr. Yao laughed heartily, “That’s good, that’s good. Xiao Lei, quickly toast your uncle and thank him for his promotion.”
Yao Lei stood up and bowed respectfully, "Uncle, thank you."
Qin Jinye smiled at him and said, "Good boy, sit down."
