He Ruixue put the jade pendant away, planning to return it to him when she had the chance.
After all, this thing has greater symbolic significance, but it is not a necessity for her. The gold, jade and jewelry rewarded by the system in the space are piled up into a mountain, so she does not lack this collection.
"When they leave, I'll go see them off."
By the way, you can also give some money and tickets. When you get to the place, whether it is giving gifts or buying furniture, it will be a considerable expense.
Jiang Yanxu instantly understood what she meant and helped her sit down. "Don't worry about it. I've given it all."
A small package containing more than 30 yuan, several national food coupons, a can of malted milk, a few strips of bacon, and some cloth and cotton.
The boy refused to take it at first, but told him that his family needed it, and then he accepted it and thanked him repeatedly.
I left crying, my eyes were redder than a rabbit's.
Hearing his description, He Ruixue couldn't help but smile and said, "You did a good job. I'll give you a reward."
As she said that, she turned her head and kissed the corner of his lips.
Jiang Yanxu pinched her face and gradually moved closer, intending to turn the simple caressing into a more adult one.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang of a door slamming from outside.
He Ruixue gave him a wicked smile, and Jiang Yanxu got up helplessly. The two of them walked out and saw that He Xiaojie was kicking the wall to vent her anger.
"Didn't you go on a blind date today? Why are you not satisfied with him?"
"More than just being dissatisfied, I've made it clear to him that I'm not that interested in him, but it's like he doesn't understand what I'm saying.
Before we finished our meal, he invited me to his house in the evening to have dinner and meet his parents.
I didn't want to be too blunt, but since he was playing dumb, I had no choice but to be frank.
"What did you say?"
"I didn't fancy him at all and told him to get lost. But his mother was smart enough to be waiting outside with a bunch of people. She pulled me over and was so affectionate with me, telling everyone that I was her future daughter-in-law."
This practice is no less than forced marriage. If a shy girl fails to explain in time, she will easily be splashed with dirty water and seen as treacherous by others.
He Ruixue frowned, "You didn't scold her too?"
He Xiaojie may have been a little timid in high school, but since she started working, she has seen more of the world and has been influenced by the female elders in her family, so her personality has become cold, hard and strong.
Faced with such a scene, she would definitely not remain indifferent.
"I scolded her, why didn't I scold her? But she said my mother had already agreed on my behalf, and the betrothal gift had been negotiated, and she was just waiting to come to discuss a good date for the wedding."
He Xiaojie was almost crying with anger, feeling heartbroken, "Aunt, how could my mother do this? Does she even treat me as a human being?"
He Ruixue was able to remain rational. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Don't jump to conclusions. My sister-in-law has a bit of a temper and isn't very polite to you, but she's definitely not someone who makes decisions without asking for your opinion.
Think about it, from childhood to adulthood, has she ever forced you to do anything you really didn't want to do? "
After hearing her words, He Xiaojie gradually calmed down.
Thinking about the time when she was notified to go to the countryside, her mother would rather retire early than give her the job. It really doesn't seem like the kind of person who would marry her off rashly.
"But Xiao Qing's mother has been talking about this in front of so many people, and now it has spread to our yard."
As soon as she got back, everyone asked her about her boyfriend when they were getting married and where they were going to hold the wedding banquet.
She was afraid that in a few days, she would be regarded as someone else's daughter-in-law in other people's eyes.
As they were talking, Wang Taozhi came into the room carrying a jar of pickled cabbage and said cheerfully, "Xiaojie, you've finally come to your senses. You were stubborn and unwilling before, but now you're talking about marriage. I guess mom has good taste, right?
But we can't rush it. Mom hasn't finished the two sets of quilts she gave you yet. You should wait until the weather warms up before getting the certificate."
These words directly poured fuel on He Xiaojie's anger, and it rushed up. "Mom, who told you that? I don't like him at all. Is your daughter only worthy of such a despicable villain?"
"What's going on?"
Wang Taozhi's smile faded, and she chased her to ask about what happened today. After hearing how things developed, she also felt annoyed.
"What do you mean I've agreed? I just think the boy is good and I'm letting you meet him. We haven't even started dating yet.
No, call Li Duoliang, I have to go find them. How can I ruin your reputation so easily? Who would dare to ask them out for a blind date in the future?"
"Humph, they've got their sights set on me. Every single one they get is a winner... Mom, who are these people you introduced to me? They're here to harm me."
"Okay, it's Mom who made a mistake this time. If you're angry, wait until I get back to tell you.
Let's go. Your dad and uncle are at home today. Call a few more people. We can't let them continue to talk nonsense."
He Ruixue saw that she seemed to be about to join a group fight, so she quickly said, "Sister-in-law, take Yanxu with you, he's good at fighting."
"Well, don't join in the fun. There are too many people and it might get you hurt."
Wang Taozhi brought half of her family and ran to the Xiao family in a mighty procession.
A crowd of onlookers immediately gathered around, and the alley was completely blocked.
I can only say that watching the fun is human nature. In such a cold day, as soon as I heard someone arguing outside, I immediately ran out with a small stool and watched with great interest in the cold wind, not feeling cold at all.
Although He Ruixue was at home, she could hear the live broadcast from He Xiaoai, the ear-monitor.
The battle was quite fierce. The Xiao family had a large number of people, and Xiao's mother was a hot-tempered person. She actually quarreled with Wang Taozhi back and forth.
