Early this morning, Chen Cixiu was already waiting at the airport to pick up Jiang Yu.
His gaze remained fixed on the exit, waiting for Jiang Yu to emerge.
But it wasn't Jiang Yu who arrived first, but Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Oh ho, you're here so early."
Lin Xiaoxiao teased him the first thing she did when she met him.
Chen Cixiu asked curiously, "What's going on? Why are you the only one who came out?"
"What else could it be? There are still things to do over there, and President Jiang is still there, but I don't have anything to do here, so of course I came back first."
Chen Cixiu found Lin Xiaoxiao's smug expression utterly unbelievable.
He spoke with President Jiang on the phone this morning. If the itinerary had really been changed at the last minute, he would have sent a message earlier.
"I said, do you think it's possible that Mr. Jiang and I talked on the phone this morning?"
Chen Cixiu looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with a smile, not falling for it at all.
Lin Xiaoxiao was taken aback. "No, didn't President Jiang say she wouldn't disturb your sleep? Yesterday I was even talking about whether or not to call you to pick him up, and she said something like, 'He's only been recovering for a short time, let him rest more.' She called you this morning?"
I'm angry.
I never expected that President Jiang would be this kind of person.
Chen Cixiu shrugged and said with a chuckle, "Now you know?"
"Yes, your wife went to the restroom. I came out first, but I didn't expect to see you there," Lin Xiaoxiao said helplessly.
"Hello, Ms. Lin, are you moving all of these to the car?"
The driver walked up to Lin Xiaoxiao and asked her.
"Give him this box, and please put all of these in the car for me."
Lin Xiaoxiao pointed to Jiang Yu's suitcase and said.
Chen Cixiu took the box, said goodbye to Lin Xiaoxiao, and then Jiang Yu came out.
"Oh, Xiaoxiao went back?"
When Jiang Yu came out and didn't see Lin Xiaoxiao, he asked.
"Yes, they just left. Let's go home too."
Chen Cixiu took her hand and pushed her suitcase.
"Wife, when does An Yuan get his vacation?" Chen Cixiu asked.
"I'll be on holiday in a couple of days, but I have nothing to do right now, so I don't have to go to the company."
Jiang Yu smiled. The thought that she wouldn't have to go to the company for the time being, and would only have to go back after the New Year, made her feel happy. This feeling seemed to have come only this year. In the past, she hadn't felt this happy much.
Because she can go back to her home anytime.
Perhaps it's because I have someone by my side this year.
"In that case, let's go prepare for the New Year tomorrow."
Chen Cixiu said with a smile.
"You're preparing so soon?" Jiang Yu asked, surprised.
“Of course, and we also need to prepare red envelopes this year.” Chen Cixiu put his suitcase down and returned to his seat.
"Oh right, now that we're married, we can't accept red envelopes anymore, we have to give them. So, how much should I give when I go over?"
Jiang Yu himself wasn't sure either.
"We need to prepare more than five yuan, because there are many children in the neighborhood, and then there are the children in our own family. For our family, it's one or two hundred yuan."
When Chen Cixiu said it, Jiang Yu was clearly stunned.
He waved his hand and laughed, "What's wrong?"
"Hmm... Honey, the difference in our red envelope amounts seems quite significant."
Jiang Yu shrank his neck.
"How can that be the same? But it's okay, I have some savings now, so it should be fine."
"Starting at ten thousand."
Fortunately, Chen Cixiu had good self-control; otherwise, if he had stepped on the gas, he would have really seen his grandmother.
Jiang Yu blinked.
It's not that Chen Cixiu couldn't afford the money, but is this what the families of the super-rich are like?
Starting at 10,000, oh my god.
So it turns out you're the ones who broke the rules of etiquette in our province.
"Yes, I understand." Chen Cixiu nodded.
"Then do I need to..."
"No, no, one hundred, two hundred at most, one hundred and one, two hundred and one, nothing else can be prepared." We can't break their family tradition.
"Oh, right, for relatives' children, it's around fifty, twenty, or thirty."
Jiang Yu didn't speak, she just kept nodding.
"Alright, you don't need to prepare that. We're going to buy New Year's goods." Chen Cixiu smiled slightly; he would take care of everything.
"Let's go buy some New Year's goods first, and then go home later," Jiang Yu said with a smile.
To be honest, President Jiang has never personally purchased any New Year's goods. During holidays, he always buys expensive gifts to take home, while his parents have already prepared all the New Year's goods for the family.
She was like that, and so was Chen Cixiu. He was a young man who had just graduated and was also buying New Year's goods for the first time. But unlike Jiang Yu, he could see what he needed to buy every year.
Of course, it is different from other families because the Chen family celebrates the New Year together, so if they want to buy New Year's goods, they must give gifts to each family.
So next, Jiang Yu saw Chen Cixiu buying a lot of things.
Of course, the mall can deliver these items to your door.
"Honey, so much!" Jiang Yu was stunned. This was more like a bulk purchase than a New Year's shopping trip.
"Because this is the first time I've brought you home for Chinese New Year since we got married, I also want to tell my uncles, grandparents, parents, and everyone else that I am now capable of building a good family," Chen Cixiu said with a smile.
"This doesn't need proof, does it? You already have it," Jiang Yu said with a smile.
As Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu were strolling around, they suddenly wandered into a place by mistake.
Jiang Yu knew exactly what her husband wanted to do.
Just from that little look in his eyes, you can basically guess what's going on at a glance.
"Honey, you're not going to...?"
Jiang Yu was a little scared. She, as the sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, didn't want to be resented by the children on her first New Year's visit to the Chen family.
“Honey, I didn’t have the means to buy them gifts before, but now that I’m their older brother, I can afford it, so of course I have to show my appreciation.”
"But is it really necessary to buy workbooks?"
Jiang Yu saw that he had already gotten the hang of it.
She quickly took out her phone and started recording Chen Cixiu, saying, "Honey, let's not add to their burden, shall we?"
“That won’t do. People grow up under pressure, and these exercises are very simple for them. I believe they can finish them.” Chen Cixiu didn’t notice Jiang Yu filming him at all. He just kept explaining to Jiang Yu how good the Chen family’s child was in school, how well-behaved the child was, and so on.
He then actually chose workbooks for high school and below.
For those in high school and above, Chen Cixiu explained, "That's too boring. Some of them study art, and they won't even look at the practice problems we buy for them."
After doing all this, the young couple happily went home.
