Mr. Zhou refused outright, saying, "You're willing to use the mahjong machine in the recreation room, but I can't bear to let you break this gift I just received!"
Gu Wei watched as Zhou's father acted like a child, and for some reason, he wanted to laugh, but he held it back.
Zhou Wenyi, being the daughter, was not so reserved and laughed out loud, which immediately drew a glare from her father.
Zhou's mother put the jade bracelet on her other free wrist, and the more she looked at it, the better it seemed than the original jade bracelet on her wrist.
"Gu Wei, this must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"It didn't cost much, as long as you like it."
Gu Wei was telling the truth; these were selected from his collection, and they probably cost several ten-yuan bills.
However, Zhou's mother didn't quite believe it. But since ancient times, gold has a price, but jade is priceless, and it's not easy to estimate.
"I like it, I really like it."
Gu Wei glanced at the twins, who had been behaving themselves for a while after realizing they had caused trouble, but then became restless again. He quietly asked Zhou Wenyi, "Do you have a red envelope to put your New Year's money in?"
He didn't know there was a child before he came, so he was completely unprepared.
Zhou Wenyi could easily guess what her boyfriend was going to do. She smiled slightly and whispered, "Let's go to my room."
"OK."
Gu Wei had visited the Zhou family several times, but he had only been inside his girlfriend's bedroom once.
As soon as I entered, I smelled a blend of sweet fragrances.
It has a slightly sweet taste, but it's not pungent.
Zhou Wenyi had a premonition that her boyfriend might come into her room, so she tidied up again after getting up in the morning.
So now, he brought his people in and confidently smiled, "Take a look around first, I'll go find some red envelopes."
"good."
Gu Wei responded and then headed straight for the display case with a shelf full of figurines.
It seems like he has a few more new figurines than when I last saw him.
At this moment, Zhou Wenyi took out two red envelopes from the drawer of the dressing table.
Gu Wei heard the sound, turned around, and walked to her side.
How much is appropriate?
Zhou Wenyi pursed her lips. "A thousand? Actually, I don't really like my cousin's two kids. Besides, my parents still have to give them New Year's money."
"Then a thousand."
Although electronic payments are extremely convenient nowadays, Gu Wei still has the habit of keeping cash in his wallet, so he easily pulled out 2,000 yuan in brand new consecutive serial numbers.
After they finished wrapping the red envelopes, the two of them didn't rush downstairs.
A quiet room seemed more suitable for them.
Originally, Gu Wei was slumped on the sofa, chatting with Zhou Wenyi who was nestled in his arms.
However, when a man and a woman are alone together in a room, things gradually change.
Especially these past two days, because of the Lunar New Year, they haven't had any opportunity for close contact.
I don't know who initiated the kiss.
In short, the room was soon filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Just as the young couple were entwined and reluctant to part, footsteps echoed down the corridor.
Gu Wei immediately stopped what he was doing and listened intently.
People who know each other can tell who it is just by listening to their footsteps.
Zhou Wenyi recognized the voice as that of her brother, Zhou Wenbo, and subconsciously straightened her hair and clothes.
Gu Wei stared at her glossy lips, then reached out his long, slender hand and wiped them for her.
"Dong dong dong".
There was a knock on the door.
Zhou Wenyi had calmed her breathing and got up to open the door.
As expected, it was Zhou Wenbo standing outside the door.
"Why haven't you come down yet after all this time?"
His gaze swept across his sister's face, then fell on Gu Wei, who was standing not far away.
What the two of them did before he knocked on the door was as obvious as lice on a bald head.
Suppressing her embarrassment, Zhou Wenyi retorted confidently, "The food isn't ready yet, why go downstairs? You haven't even come back."
Zhou Wenbo nodded at her helplessly from a distance, then walked in as well.
Happy Chinese New Year!
"Happy New Year." Gu Wei and Zhou Wenbo used to be colleagues and friends. Although their relationship has changed again, it is still much more relaxed and calm than when they didn't know each other before.
Zhou Wenyi sat back down next to Gu Wei. "Where did you go?"
Zhou Wenbo touched his nose. "I spent some time hanging out with friends."
Zhou Wenyi knew immediately that her brother wasn't telling the truth, but she didn't want to expose him in front of her boyfriend.
The three chatted idly, but even though it wasn't very interesting, none of them wanted to go downstairs.
Meanwhile, in the living room on the first floor, the men gathered together, smoking and chatting, while two children ran around wildly, shouting from time to time.
Zhou's mother turned the newly received bracelet around, her brows furrowing slightly.
She's used to peace and quiet, and she really doesn't like having so many people coming over and making so much noise.
Unfortunately, these are all her family members, so she can only bear with it for now.
Geng Yidan had actually taken a liking to her third sister-in-law's jade bracelet at first glance, and kept glancing at her wrist, naturally noticing the other woman's displeasure.
"Zhi Mei, your future son-in-law is really something. He's quite generous with money. He just threw out a gold mahjong set worth over 100,000 yuan, and this jade bracelet must be expensive too."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou's mother's younger sister, Zhang Zhili, chimed in with a quick glance, "Yes, they've only been dating for about half a year, right? Even if she's an orphan, she has no family burdens and even runs a successful restaurant. Most people wouldn't be willing to part with that. Speaking of which, among all the children of their generation, your Wenyi is the luckiest."
Having dealt with her sister-in-law and younger sister for many years, Zhou's mother was well aware that their back-and-forth praise was a veiled criticism.
