Xu Tingchang glanced at him and said, "It doesn't matter that you are serious about it. Grandpa likes it very much."

Hearing this, Guan Ningning couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes. Then her hanging heart fell to the ground, she smiled, and said openly: "As long as you like it."

Xia Jinxiu also held her own gift, which was a very elegant Suzhou embroidered silk scarf. "Look at my silk scarf. The embroidery work is really good."

As she said that, she took out a brocade box and said, "We have something for you too."

She opened the brocade box, and Guan Ningning saw the jade bracelet in the brocade box.

Xia Jinxiu said: "This bracelet was given to me by Jing'an's grandma back then. It was for the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. Now I will pass this bracelet on to you."

"This..." Guan Ningning was stunned.

It would be too precious to accept, and it would seem inappropriate to refuse.

Xu Jing'an took the brocade box, took out the jade bracelet, took Guan Ningning's hand and put it on her, "Here you go, take it, why don't you thank mom soon?"

"Thank you, mom." Guan Ningning had not recovered yet, and she followed Xu Jingan and called Xia Jinxiu's mom.

After saying that, she realized that she had called Xia Jinxiu mom. She was so embarrassed that she immediately blushed. She was still too nervous and looked like she was not stable at all. She was simply a fool.

Xia Jinxiu was so happy that she had crow's feet from laughing, "Hey! You kid, why are you so honest? I haven't paid you the money to change your story yet. If you change your story first, I have to pay you to change your story."

"No, no, no," Guan Ningning said hurriedly.

"No matter what, this is what we should do. Otherwise, if we tell others, we will say that our Xu family does not understand etiquette."

Xu Changqing said with envy: "You must pay for the correction of your words."

Xu Tingchang said: "I still have my share, and grandpa has to give it too."

"No, no, really no need." Apart from saying this, Guan Ningning didn't know what to say. She turned her head and asked Xu Jing'an for help.

Xu Jing'an caught her eyes asking for help and smiled and said to her: "Grandpa and mom gave it to me. You're welcome. Just take it. They are rich."

Xu Changqing said: "Then I will also pay the correction fee."

Xu Jing'an and he were worthy of being father and son, and he immediately said: "You can't be without your share."

After saying that, he said to Guan Ningning: "Okay, why don't you call me dad?"

Guan Ningning didn't expect things to develop so fast, and she was still a little confused. When Xu Jing'an said this, she immediately called Xu Changqing, "Thank you, Dad."

Xia Jinxiu looked at Xu Changqing, "Are you happy now?"

"Of course I am happy. You are even happier. Ning Ning changed her story before she even mentioned the money for changing her story. I changed my story only after I paid the money for changing my story." Xu Changqing said.

Xia Jinxiu said proudly: "It sounds like you have already paid the money for the correction, haven't you?"

Xu Changqing said: "I will give it now, the first one."

As he spoke, he took out the red envelope he had prepared in advance.

Guan Ningning came here for the first time today, and they should give her a greeting gift, the most direct one being a red envelope.

This time Guan Ningning accepted the red envelope generously: "Thank you, Dad."

Xu Tingchang also handed her a red envelope, and Guan Ningning hurriedly took it, "Thank you, grandpa."

"thanks Mom."

And Xia Jinxiu’s.

Guan Ningning looked at the red envelope. She was happy not because she got the red envelope, but because they accepted her and recognized her.

From then on, she had three more elders and three more family members.

For someone like her who has never experienced the warmth of family since childhood, being recognized and accepted is more important than anything else. She also looks forward to getting along well with them in the future, like a real family.

Xu Jing'an said: "Hurry up and pack the red bag."

Guan Ningning smiled, put the red envelope into her bag, and then prepared to take off the bracelet on her wrist.

Seeing this, Xu Jing'an stopped her, "What are you doing?"

"I took off the jade bracelet and put it away. I was afraid of bumping such a precious thing while wearing it."

Xia Jinxiu said, "Wearing it, no matter how valuable it is, it is still jewelry. The bracelet is just for wearing it. Jade nourishes people."

Xu Jing'an said: "Listen to our mother."

"Okay." Guan Ningning smiled and nodded, then she didn't take off the bracelet.

Wear it first and take it off when you get back.

It was really unsafe for her to wear such an expensive jade bracelet.

Moreover, she usually has to go to work, and she has to clean and cook after get off work. It is inconvenient and unsafe to wear such expensive jewelry. This is their ancestral jade bracelet. If it really hits it, the loss will not only be a matter of money.

Several people continued to drink tea and chat in the living room.

Xu Tingchang was older, so he sat for a while and then returned to the room.

Only Guan Ningning, Xu Jing'an, Xia Jinxiu and Xu Changqing were left in the living room.

Guan Ningning sat on the sofa, straightening her back and sitting upright.

Seeing her like this, Xia Jinxiu knew that she was a little nervous and restrained, but she didn't do anything deliberately.

It was normal for her to be nervous and restrained when she first came here, and they didn't have to do anything deliberately. After coming a few times, she would gradually become familiar with it, and once she became familiar with it, she wouldn't be so nervous and restrained.

She was also nervous when she met her parents-in-law for the first time.

Xu Changqing asked her some questions about her work.

When talking about this, Guan Ningning was actually even more nervous, especially worried that they would ask her to resign and return to Jiangzhou.

When talking about this topic, Xu Jing'an remembered that he hadn't told his parents yet and asked them not to mention Guan Ningning's resignation and returned to Jiangzhou, so he had to wink at them.

Seeing him winking, Xu Changqing said deliberately: "What's wrong with your eyes? Are your eyelids cramped? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Xu Jing'an: "...No."

"Then why are you winking at me?" Xu Changqing deliberately struck again.

Xu Jingan refused to admit it, "No, you are wrong."

Xu Changqing thought to himself, he is a tough guy.

Because of this episode, the atmosphere relaxed a lot. Fortunately, neither Xu Changqing nor Xia Jinxiu said that, and Guan Ningning breathed a sigh of relief.

They chatted for a while, and the servant came over and said, "Madam, lunch is ready and can be served at any time."

"Let's eat. You haven't had breakfast? Let's talk while eating."

So everyone moved to the restaurant.

Xia Jinxiu and Guan Ningning walked in front, and Xu Jing'an and Xu Changqing, father and son, walked behind.

Xu Jing'an whispered in a low voice that only the father and son could hear: "Don't mention her returning to Jiangzhou for development later during the meal. I will find a way to solve the problem in another place."

Xu Changqing glared at Xu Jing'an.

Xu Jing'an looked confused, "Why are you staring at me? I'm telling you serious things."

"Do you think your mother and I are fools?" Xu Changqing said, "Don't we know that she has been deployed for five years and will definitely get a promotion and salary increase when she comes back. Now is her career's upswing? The problem with you being in another place is not us. The elders should interfere, and you can arrange and handle it yourself. Whoever is more anxious will find a way to solve the problem in another place. Obviously, it is you."

There was a hint of disgust in his eyes, and a hint of contempt in his tone.

Xu Jing'an was speechless: "..."

Soon we arrived at the restaurant and saw a table full of dishes.
