Chapter 152 Reciprocity
The next morning, just as it was getting light, someone knocked on the gate of Old Xu's house.
Because they have to participate in the pre-race training for the dragon boat race today, Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao Er don’t need to get up early, and the family can rarely sleep in.
The knock on the door so early is really annoying.
"Open the door, Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm back!"
Outside the door, Xu Laosan's voice was heard.
Then, Boss Xu rushed out of the house barefoot in a short jacket and opened the gate.
Outside the courtyard gate, Xu Laosan and Xiangyi Prefecture Governor Shen Wansheng were standing upright.
"Uh, Uncle, good morning!"
Boss Xu was really surprised when he saw Shen Wansheng standing at the door.
This person came so early in the morning, it's too early!
"Nephew, it's not awake yet!"
Shen Wansheng was also a little dumbfounded when he saw Boss Xu's expression. He came to visit too early, and it seemed that something was a little wrong.
"It's up, it's up!"
Boss Xu quickly responded, "Second Uncle, let's go in and talk first!"
Following this conversation between Boss Xu and Shen Wansheng, Old Man Xu in the main hall also got up and woke up Old Lady Xu.
"Wife, hurry up, my second brother is here!"
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she got up quickly.
"Second brother, are you here?"
When Old Mrs. Xu got up, Old Mr. Xu was already putting on his clothes and walking out, without even putting on his shoes properly.
"Brother, I seem to have arrived a little early, please forgive me!"
When Shen Wansheng woke up in the backyard of the Xu Family Restaurant in Sanhe Town, he saw Xu Laosan sleeping next to him. Considering that Xu Laosan had to go to the county town to study, Shen Wansheng decided to come and visit him early.
After all, since I’m your elder brother, I have to come and introduce myself to you and pay my respects to my elder sister-in-law, right?
At that time, Shen Wansheng also felt that it was inappropriate to come so early.
But Xu Laosan said that his eldest brother and second brother both got up so early to work, and everyone in the family got up early.
So, Shen Wansheng followed.
Who would have thought that this was not the case at all.
When Xu San told this story, Old Master Xu laughed and said, "Second brother, this is a coincidence!"
"There's a dragon boat race in Anshun County next month. Your eldest and second nephews are both dragon boat racers in the village. Today is their day for practice, so there's no need to go out with the car. I'm just getting up a little late!"
"I see. However, I was a little abrupt in coming here!"
Shen Wansheng still felt a little embarrassed.
"Don't say that, second brother. You and I are sworn brothers. We are brothers. These are not important!"
Mr. Xu waved his hand indifferently.
At this time, Old Mrs. Xu came out of the house holding Fubao.
As soon as he saw Mrs. Xu coming out, Shen Wansheng glanced at Mr. Xu and said, “Brother, this is my sister-in-law, right?”
“Shen Wansheng has met my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law is well!”
It was the first time that Mrs. Xu had seen a gentleman like Shen Wansheng, and she was stunned for a moment, but she quickly recovered and returned the greeting.
Mr. Xu hurriedly introduced Shen Wansheng to Mrs. Xu, and then took Fubao from Mrs. Xu's arms and introduced him to Shen Wansheng.
"Second brother, look, this is your eldest niece!"
Shen Wansheng looked intently at Fubao who was being held by Old Man Xu. Looking into Fubao's big, lively eyes, he felt that this child was particularly intelligent and likable.
Shen Wansheng subconsciously took off the jade pendant he was carrying and was about to give it to Fubao as a meeting gift.
"Second brother, you can't do that!"
This is the jade pendant carried by a prefectural governor. How could it be an ordinary item?
Old Master Xu waved his hand and said, "It's too expensive, too expensive!"
"Brother, please don't refuse. This is a gift from me, your uncle, to my niece!"
"This is a gift from my uncle, you have to accept it!"
Shen Wansheng's attitude was extremely sincere.
Seeing this, Old Master Xu could only accept the gift. "Fubao, see, this is a gift from your second uncle. When you grow up, remember to kowtow to your second uncle!"
Fubao looked at the jade pendant in Mr. Xu's hand with his bright eyes, and suddenly let out an "ah ah ah" sound. At the same time, he stretched out his hand, trying to grab the jade pendant.
"Oh my god, a jade pendant made of imperial green jadeite!"
Fubao was excited when he saw the green in his father's hand.
With a jade pendant of this quality, if it were placed in the urban society of the future, it would probably cost hundreds of millions!
What is the background of my father's sworn brother?
Fubao only heard his father say that this person was the prefect of their Xiangyi Prefecture, but what about his family background?
Ordinary people, even wealthy ones, would not casually give away such a precious jade pendant!
"Huh? Fubao wants it?"
Old Master Xu looked at Fubao and stretched out his hand. He really doted on her and actually put the imperial green jade pendant in Fubao's hand.
However, the rope holding the jade pendant was always held in Mr. Xu's hand.
As he was born in the Xu family in the capital, he had seen great wealth and naturally understood the value of this jade pendant.
Fubao's chubby little hands tightly grasped the jade pendant, and he screamed, stretching his short arms towards Shen Wansheng.
“Ahhh!”
He stretched out his little hands, screamed, and twisted his little body hard.
Does this mean that the jade pendant should be returned?
Old Master Xu looked at Fubao in some confusion.
Although I knew from the beginning that my precious daughter was smart, how could such a little kid understand the value of this jade pendant?
"Daughter, are you asking Dad to return this thing to your second uncle?"
“Ahhhh!”
Hearing his father's question, Fubao continued to shout.
What are you going to pay back?
There might only be one such precious thing in the world!
Besides, this is mine!
Fubao screamed and twisted his little body even more violently.
"Brother, I think my niece wants me to hug her, right?"
Shen Wansheng understood a little bit and spoke to Mr. Xu.
“Ahhh!”
Fubao waved his hands, shook his head, and continued to shout.
hug?
Are you kidding me?
Although I am small in stature, I have big ideas.
I just want to reciprocate.
For his family, Fubao only needs to pray for good luck, but for strangers who are not blood relatives, Fubao has to personally deliver the blessing.
Fubao moved around and kept calling out, actually he just wanted to pat Shen Wansheng on the face with his little hands.
Mr. Xu couldn't understand what his daughter meant, so he could only try Shen Wansheng's guess.
When Shen Wansheng approached Mr. Xu, Fubao’s little hand finally touched Shen Wansheng’s face.
"Oh, goal achieved!"
After meeting Shen Wansheng, Fubao made a good wish.
Then, she quickly grabbed the jade pendant and snuggled into Mr. Xu's arms, laughing from time to time, but never showed up again.
Shen Wansheng was dumbfounded, and Old Master Xu was dumbfounded.
What does this mean?
All this trouble, just to touch your face?
Shen Wansheng was really confused.
But Mr. Xu seemed to understand something.
