Seeing that the table had become quiet, Mrs. Wang knew that she had just gone a little too far and that this shouldn't have happened on their first meeting.
He smiled at his son, waved, and said, "It's our first meeting, so I brought some gifts."
When Wang Kai saw his mother's gesture, he immediately took out something from his backpack and placed a bottle of honey on the table.
He immediately pointed at the honey and said, "This is from my mother's family. My brother just gave it to me two days ago. I immediately took it and gave it to everyone as a token of my appreciation."
I originally thought that the other party would like such a gift very much, so when I heard everyone remained silent.
After everyone realized what was going on, they immediately asked someone to take the things to the kitchen and put them away. They didn't care what valuable things the other party brought.
"Well, in my hometown, there's a tradition that when two families meet, they exchange gifts. Look at my gift, although it's not expensive, it's the most generous thing our family can offer."
When Wang Bin heard his wife's words, he immediately raised his head, frowned, and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't I know there was such a rule?"
But his question did not receive any answer. Instead, his wife's eyes made him shut up. He never had much say, and at this time, no matter what he said, it seemed particularly useless.
Shen Qing did prepare a gift for her daughter-in-law, but that gift was intended for their wedding. It was inappropriate to give such a gift to the in-laws when they met.
They don't have such a custom there, so they didn't prepare anything.
"I think this table of food is the best thank you gift." Anna immediately took over the conversation. He also knew that his mother came here to deliberately make things difficult for everyone today.
It is acceptable for a family to give out some things, but for a family like the Shen family, if the things they give out are worthless, they will probably be laughed at by others.
Perhaps it was because of this that Mrs. Wang showed a hint of anticipation in her eyes. She wanted to see what kind of treasures they could come up with.
Chen Qing was a little panicked. She glanced at Fu Qingnian next to her and saw that his eyes were also asking whether she should take out that thing.
At this moment, Ana Shen stood up and said, "It's ready. My mother prepared it all day yesterday. I was afraid you wouldn't like it, so I'll go get it now."
After saying that, he ran up. Mrs. Wang's eyes followed him until he entered a room, lowered his head and rejoiced secretly.
For people like them, anything they bring out should be very valuable, maybe even worth their annual income.
Soon Shen Nanxing took out a large box. Seeing the size of the box, Wang Sao was already very happy. She stood up, covered her mouth and said with a smile,
"This thing is too valuable and so big. We are really embarrassed to accept it."
Just as he finished speaking, the other party opened the box, revealing only a few pieces of red silk inside.
Seeing this, Wang's wife's face immediately darkened and she asked, "What do you mean? You are such a wealthy family, and the gift you gave to your in-laws was just a few pieces of rags?"
It was incredible that Wang Kai stood up. They had planned from the beginning that they could not go back for nothing and must get something.
"You've misunderstood. We have our own customs back home. If both families are willing, we will provide the formal attire for the bride's parents and siblings. Although the fabrics for these sets may look simple, they are all top-notch."
Ana Shen said as he pushed the things over. Fortunately, he brought these things back yesterday, and there was a gift box in the room that was just right.
Such words left the Wang family speechless.
Mrs. Wang picked up the things and took a look. They were just a few pieces of cloth and not even the clothes were made. It was obvious that they were asked to pay for the labor themselves.
He snorted, threw the things back into the box and said, "Then I'll be frank. You all know how much I've raised my daughter to this age. The betrothal gift I ask for isn't that high, is it?"
"What you're asking for isn't too much, is it? Our company's building doesn't even cost that much to rent out." Shen Ling couldn't stand it any longer and retorted immediately, saying that their family would never be able to make that much money in their lifetime.
It's because they think their family members are honest, rich and easy to bully.
"I heard that your family has a house and a car, so I agreed to marry my daughter to your family. Anyway, my requirements are here. If you are willing, we can get married right away."
Mrs. Wang stood up and pulled her son to go out. When she reached the door, she turned back and said, "We will give you three days to think about it. We are not in the mood to eat anymore. Please pack up all these things and let us take them away."
When Shen Ling and Su Li arrived here, they went straight to the kitchen, took out a large box, and poured all the vegetables into it.
The food on the table today is very expensive. Zhao Yunfeng has been busy since he got up in the morning and hasn't had time to drink even a sip of water.
They did this simply to avoid being criticized, otherwise they wouldn't be willing to give them such good food.
Mrs. Wang was already very happy when she saw these things. Hua didn't care how she took them back. She happily took the two things and went out.
Anna was really sad sitting there, but Shen Qing next to him wanted to pat his shoulder and told him not to be sad, no matter what happened, there was always a way to get through it.
It is unfortunate for him to meet such a family, but he should not suffer such humiliation.
Suddenly Wang Kai ran back and said, "Who will take us there?"
When Lu Yang heard this, he stood up and went back to his room with a dark face. He had already been annoyed when he went to pick up his family just now.
Along the way, Mrs. Wang kept talking and asked about many things in a tactful way. Fortunately, he was rather dull and didn't answer anything.
Shen Peng sighed and stood up, "I'll take you there, but my driving skills are not very good."
Without waiting for the other party to refuse, he directly pulled the person out the door. If these people stand here and chat for every minute, I'm afraid another one will come. We will be so angry that we won't be able to eat for the whole day.
After the Wang family left, Anna was not let go, but was directly pulled into the room by Shen Qing to chat.
Tian Guifen touched Ana Shen's shoulder and said, "Daughter-in-law, you reacted quickly, otherwise I really didn't know what to do just now. Ma Ke prepared a set of jewelry and wanted to give it to my daughter-in-law as a wedding gift. It would be a big loss if I took it out at this time."
"Yes, besides, I originally brought that batch of materials back to make wedding dresses for them. Fu Xingye said that Yang Shuo didn't like it, so it's just right for their family."
Ana Shen rolled his eyes and said, “People you don’t like should wear clothes you don’t like.”
