Chapter 153 (2/2)
”When the old lady opens the present, you will know what it is. If I tell you now, there will be no suspense.”
Gu Yizhen is really curious. What he used to give his mother was nothing more than some jewelry, or precious antique calligraphy and paintings. Although his mother was very happy every time he saw the gifts they prepared, he could also feel that his mother was happy just because they gave them, and didn't really like those things.
Ye Xiaoan has always been very popular with her mother, and I don't know if the gift she prepared this time can be made to her mother's appetite. But looking at her cautious appearance, she must have spent a lot of effort to prepare. Now in Ye Xiaoan's consciousness, they have divorced. It's also rare to be able to prepare gifts for yourself with such care.
”In that case, wait until your mother opens the present. I believe you can give your mother a different birthday present.”
When the two of them arrived at the ancient house, the servants were busy hanging colored lights in the yard. This is a habit that the ancient family continues every year, because the old woman likes bright things and also likes that bright feeling. Housekeeper Li saw the two of them coming in from the gate, and hurriedly told the next servant. Then he hurried to the door to meet them.
”Young master, young lady, why did you come back at this time? The old man and the old lady have asked several times. I'm afraid they miss you. Hurry in and have a chat with them.”
Housekeeper Li specially changed into a brand-new Tang costume today. With his kind smile, he really looks very energetic.
Ye Xiaoan always had a very good impression of housekeeper Li. Seeing housekeeper Li quickly step up to meet him, he hurried over and held his hand.
”Uncle Li, didn't I tell you? You're old. You should be careful when you walk. We don't need you to meet. Your waist is bad, so you'd better take care of your body.”
Housekeeper li really has no resistance to Ye Xiaoan's mouth. Who makes the little girl so talkative? He likes her very much since the first meeting.
”I'm fine. I'm glad to see you back. Hurry in.”
Before ye Xiaoan and Gu Yizhen went in, they heard someone talking in the room. Ye Xiaoan goes in and finds that the speaker is Gu Yining. Gu Yining has always been a big problem for Gu Shaohua. The most important thing she cares about every day is when she can find a son-in-law for herself. If ye Xiaoan had just heard right, Gu Shaohua was urging her to decide when to decide on her life.
Gu Yining was talking back with his old man with a smile. He turned and saw Ye Xiaoan come in, and the smile on his face froze. She remembered what Xiao Yanting had said to herself. Although she heard that, there was only a time between Ye Xiaoan and a Cheng, there was no doubt that she was jealous of her and disliked her more and more.
Ye Xiaoan just wanted to say hello to Gu Yining, when she saw her expressionless turn and walk upstairs. Seeing ye Xiaoan so embarrassed, Gu Shaohua really feels that his daughter is becoming more and more lawless. Now he doesn't even have the most basic manners. How can he not speak when he sees his sister-in-law!
”Ning Ning, isn't it too much to see your sister-in-law not talking? Why go upstairs? I'll have dinner later.”
Gu Yining waved his hand without looking back and went straight upstairs.
”I'm not feeling well. Go up and have a rest first. I'll come down naturally when I have dinner later.”
Anyone with a clear eye can see that Gu Yining is hostile to Ye Xiaoan, but ye Xiaoan doesn't quite understand. Although I usually know that she doesn't like herself very much, but she hasn't reached this level. How did she suddenly become like this?
Luo Hongyu thought to wait a minute. He must find an opportunity to talk to his daughter, which will affect the harmony at home. And ye Xiaoan is such a clever girl that she has never been offended by anything. Why should she show others face! Luo Hongyu put on a smiling face and waved to Ye Xiaoan.
”Come and sit with your mother. Ning Ning is really a little uncomfortable today, so it's inevitable that she has some childish temper. Don't get to know her, just give her a face.”
Ye Xiaoan hid the expression on his face. After all, today is the old lady's birthday. If something unpleasant happens, the old lady's birthday party will be ruined. Although I don't know what's wrong with her, I'm still her sister-in-law in name. I really shouldn't have the same experience with her. As if she was not feeling well today, it will be over.
Ye Xiaoan smiled and handed the box to the old woman. The black velvet box was embroidered with the words of Suzhou embroidery techniques with gold thread, which looked very exquisite. The old woman took a look and fell in love with it. Look at the things in this box. It must be very exciting. This year, my son suddenly became enlightened and knew that he should give his own things to his liking.
”Mom, this is a birthday present we prepared for you. Although it's not expensive, it's made by myself. It's also a little thought of ah Zhen and me. I hope you don't dislike it. I wish you good health and good health.”
