Chapter 343 A Rainbow Appears: I'll Give You a New Year's Gift
She was very careful when picking up utensils and food, and after half a day, she had only eaten two pieces of cilantro.
Shen Yunqi wasn't afraid of the old man; he was used to being scolded, and he wasn't bothered by the many lice he had.
He reached out and put half a bowl of meat into her bowl.
The remaining half bowl was filled by Shen Yanzhou.
Shen Buyu felt reassured; with this bowl, she could make a living and go home.
Shen Zhiye knew what kind of person his father was, but he really had something to do this year.
He put down his chopsticks, sat up straight, and said, "Dad, I have something to tell you."
Old Master Shen frowned. "One should not speak while eating or sleeping."
“I’m not eating,” Shen Zhiye said. “You eat yours, and I’ll listen to what I have to say.”
Old Master Shen remained silent, which was taken as consent.
"That's right. Regarding the matter of Bu Yu being included in the family genealogy, there are always a few people who have raised objections. On the third day of the lunar new year, you have to stand on my side. After all, we are family."
Old Master Shen remained silent.
He put down his chopsticks, slowly finished chewing the food in his mouth, took the handkerchief handed to him by the butler to wipe his mouth, and said, "I understand."
As soon as those three words were uttered, Shen Zhiye knew he had it all figured out.
Although the old man has a bad temper, he always keeps his word.
She buried herself in her food and found that her mindset had improved a lot.
She used to get stomach cramps easily when she was nervous and couldn't eat much, but now she actually wants another bowl.
To be honest, the food cooked by her grandfather's chef suited her taste perfectly.
After dinner, the family had a cup of tea with the old man before heading home.
As soon as Shen Buyu got in the car, he started opening the red envelopes. "Grandpa always gives me such new money every year. I can't bear to spend it. I count it all and put it in my little savings account."
Brand new red bills, 30,000 yuan.
After counting the money, she happily packed it away again.
“They gave us a good meal and 30,000 yuan,” she said, then paused for a moment, something popping into her head. She looked at Shen Yunqi and said, “It seems like Grandpa doesn’t hate us that much. Otherwise, he could have just given us some corn porridge.”
Shen Yunqi laughed so hard he almost snorted. "What era are we living in? Giving you porridge to drink? What are you thinking?"
"I'm serious, brother, do you think Grandpa will hate us? If I hate someone, I won't give him money or cook him delicious meals."
Thinking about it carefully, the meals each year are more to my liking than the previous year.
It seems to have been adjusted and innovated based on their preferences from the previous year.
That Dongpo pork knuckle I just ate was so delicious, the more I ate it, the better it got.
Shen Yunqi put down the game in his hand and thought for a moment. "Impossible. Look at the old man when he sees me. He blows his beard and glares at me. He's really annoying."
“Well,” Shen Buyu touched the silk embroidered red envelope with some regret, “maybe it just so happens that Grandpa likes to eat these too.”
When she first came to the family, she wanted to get along well with the old man.
After all, this is the Shen family's biggest backer.
After several attempts to make amends, the old man never gave her a kind look.
She decided not to make a fool of herself.
It seems she acted on emotion.
Shen Buyu returned home, grabbed a large bag of things, and went straight next door to find Song Jingyi.
Actually, this is quite good. My brother has his own private space, and it's also convenient for her to get along with him.
Acheng was cleaning the pond with a hose when he saw her and was overjoyed. "Miss, come here, I'll show you a rainbow."
Shen Buyu ran over happily, "If you shoot out a rainbow, I'll give you a New Year's gift."
Upon hearing this, Acheng worked even harder.
So, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Buyu saw an artificial rainbow.
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Song Jingyi strode over. "What if you get sick?"
Playing in the water on such a cold day.
"Brother!" Shen Buyu turned around with a smile, picking up his bag. "I've brought you New Year's gifts!"
“They said from inside,” Song Jingyi tilted his head, “Acheng continues to spray rainbows.”
"Ah..." Acheng drooped his head.
"Acheng, come here." Shen Buyu beckoned. "Listen to me today."
"Okay, okay, okay." Acheng turned off the water pipe and ran away.
He's incredibly shrewd.
Knowing whose advice to listen to.
Shen Buyu sat down next to Song Jingyi, while the others sat around her, eagerly anticipating the gift inside her pink plush bag.
She first took out a red velvet box and handed it to Mu Zi, saying, "I thought this style would suit you very well while I was shopping, Mu Zi. You can wear jewelry with me from now on."
A design that is not exaggerated yet carries a good meaning.
"Thank you, Miss." Mu Zi held it in her hand and touched it again and again.
“Chen Mo,” Shen Buyu called to him, “I don’t know what you like, but I can tell you’re always driving when we go out, so I bought you a lumbar support. Try it out later.”
Chen Mo held the compressed lumbar support, slightly stunned. "Thank you, Miss."
Acheng's eyes were practically brimming with anticipation.
If he had a tail, he would be wagging it high in the sky.
“Ah Cheng,” Shen Buyu laughed as he looked at him, “Didn’t you say your brother wouldn’t let you touch his game console? I bought one for you too, so we can play games together online from now on.”
Ah Cheng happily accepted it, "This is the first time someone has given me a game console. I'm going to tease Ze Ming and Nick."
"Where are the two of them? Haven't they returned from Russia yet?" Shen Buyu felt like he hadn't seen them in a long time.
"I went straight back to Italy. The boss had something to do, so they took care of it." Acheng was busy with packaging and didn't have time to say more.
Shen Buyu didn't ask any more questions. She took out the last gift from her bag.
A tablet computer that has already been opened.
"Brother, this is for you. The tablet isn't the point; the point is the photos inside. They were taken by Mom after she started raising me."
Song Jingyi opened the photo album, which contained thousands of photos sorted and categorized by date. He opened the folder with the earliest date.
The girl was thin and small, with big eyes filled with timidity, which made one's heart ache.
Exiting the folder, I opened the one from a while later. The little girl had become fairer and fuller-faced. When taking photos of herself, she was more relaxed and no longer timid.
She even smiles when she's in a photo with Shen Yunqi from his childhood.
“I think you must be very curious about what I was like when I was a child,” Shen Buyu said softly from the side. “I have more photos of myself with my brother.”
Because she never likes taking pictures, she feels very awkward when asked to do so.
I can only feel a little better when I'm with my brother.
"Yes, thank you, Xiaoyu. I really like this gift." Song Jingyi was overjoyed.
Having missed his sister's growth, he never dared to dream of having a record of her growth.
I never expected her to be so thoughtful.
Shen Buyu gave the gift and was in a good mood.
After getting to know them, I realized that none of them were short of money, so choosing a gift based solely on monetary value just didn't quite capture their essence.
Judging from their reactions now, they seem to like it quite a bit.
"Miss, I also have a gift for you. Wait for me." Ah Cheng carefully put the game console away and ran upstairs.
"I have one too."
"I have one too."
Chen Mo and Mu Zi spoke at the same time.
