Chapter 139 Meeting Gift
Inside the Sheriff's Mansion, only a few meters away from the gate, Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhinian were talking quietly to Cheng Wan and Mrs. Lin.
At this moment, a maid hurried over carrying a mahogany tray. This maid was brought by Mrs. Xu from Qingyuan County.
"lady."
Mrs. Xu turned her head and waved to her.
The maid hurriedly came forward with the tray and stood with her head bowed next to Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu opened the red silk cloth on the tray, and three exquisite and luxurious necklaces, a small jade ring, and a crystal clear green hairpin suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Mrs. Xu picked up one of the necklaces with both hands, bent down and smiled to put it on Cheng Xiaoyu.
"It was agreed upon as a meeting gift. Aunt Mao didn't know what you would like, so she made her own decision and prepared necklaces for you three. I hope you like them."
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the gorgeous necklace with a small ruby on it and took a step back cautiously.
Mrs. Lin took a step forward and carefully pushed Mrs. Xu's hand back.
"Mrs. Xu, this meeting gift is too expensive. They are just little girls, how can they accept such a big gift? Besides, my family has never given any gifts to Miss Xu and Master Xu. How can you be embarrassed? Take it back quickly, we can't accept this meeting gift."
Mrs. Xu made a sad expression, "Is it possible that the aunt is still blaming me for what happened just now? Is she resentful in her heart?"
Old Mrs. Lin waved her hands and shook her head, and explained anxiously: "How could that happen?! No! I really didn't blame you? Why should I blame you? You have always been very good to us, and you even gave it to my family last time. So many gifts, Mrs. Xu, your kindness will be remembered by our whole family."
"Auntie, Wan Yatou saved Nian Nian and Zhishu's lives. Your whole family takes great care of them. Compared with this love, no matter how much money or expensive gifts are, what does it mean? Today they called I called them Auntie Mao, and I responded shamelessly because I want to treat them as my nephews. I gave this gift happily and willingly!"
"As for who gave gifts to whom, and who didn't give gifts to whom, auntie, our two families don't care about that. It will still be a long time in the future. When Nian Nian's father gets better, we will be guests at your home. Then Just cook us two more dishes."
"this......"
Mrs. Lin turned to look at Cheng Wan.
Mrs. Xu talked about this, she felt it was disrespectful if she didn't accept it, and she felt unworthy of it if she did.
Cheng Wan groaned, then smiled and said: "Take it, milk. Just like Aunt Mao said, there will be a long time to come."
Mrs. Xu immediately beamed and smiled, "That's right, Xiaoyu, come quickly, Aunt Mao will put this necklace on you."
Cheng Xiaoyu raised her head and glanced at Cheng Wan, who smiled and nodded at her.
Cheng Xiaoyu turned to look at Mrs. Lin again.
Mrs. Lin pursed her lower lip and sighed, "Go ahead and remember to thank Aunt Mao."
After putting on the necklace, Mrs. Xu looked at the three little girls standing in front of her, with satisfaction in her eyes and a smile on her face: "Look, how beautiful these are!"
Cheng Wan looked down at Cheng Xiaoyu and the others and thought to herself: "It's quite nice, but the necklace doesn't match the clothes Xiaoyu and the others are wearing. I need to buy some satin clothes for Xiaoyu and the others."
The three little girls, Cheng Xiaoyu, Cheng Hua, and Li Yuan, looked down at the collars around their necks, their eyes full of joy, but they didn't dare to reach out and touch them.
Here, Mrs. Xu picked up the small ring from the tray, walked to Cheng Wan, and tied the ring around Gu Yu's waist in Cheng Wan's arms.
"Logically speaking, it's not my turn to give gifts to this child, but I think this child is really cute and cute, and I always think of him calling me Aunt Mao in a sweet voice, so I took it upon myself to pick this piece for him. If you wear a ring, just wear it for fun."
"Thank you Aunt Mao."
Gu Yu touched the ring around his waist with his small hands and thanked him seriously.
Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, and then she beamed with joy. She couldn't help but reached out and touched Gu Yu's little head, "What a lovely child."
Cheng Wan lowered his head and looked at Gu Yu, with a smile and a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Awan,"
Cheng Wan looked up when he heard the sound.
Mrs. Xu held the last thing in her hand, the hosta.
Cheng Wan opened her mouth slightly, "Aunt Mao, I don't need it, I'm not a child anymore."
Mrs. Xu glanced at Cheng Wan angrily and chuckled: "It has nothing to do with whether we are children or not. These hostas are a pair, and the other one is at Nian Nian's place. Today I will give this one to you, hoping that you and Nian Nian will be together." We can always know and help each other and be lifelong friends.”
Cheng Wan pursed her lips and looked at Xu Zhinian.
"Awan, what my mother said is true. I have the same one. Just accept it so that next time we can wear the same hosta when we go out."
Cheng Wan's brows became softer. She put Gu Yu on the ground and stood in front of Mrs. Xu, bowing her head slightly.
"Aunt Mao, please help me put it on."
"Hey! Okay!"
Mrs. Xu couldn't help but raised her hand and inserted the hosta into Cheng Wan's hair.
Under the sunlight, the crystal clear green hairpin seemed to be glowing, making Cheng Wan's face look even more radiant.
Cheng Wan and Mrs. Lin said a few more polite words to Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhinian, and agreed to invite Magistrate Xu and his wife to Pingnan Village for a housewarming party when Cheng Wan's house was built. Then they separated reluctantly.
Cheng Wan and Mrs. Lin were walking on the street, and Mrs. Lin would look back from time to time.
After Mrs. Lin looked back again, Mrs. Lin suddenly pulled Cheng Wan and the others into a deserted corner nearby.
"Quick! Xiaoyu, Huahua, Yuanyuan, you three, take off these necklaces from your necks, mother! I was walking in fear all the way, for fear that someone bold would come to rob me! If it weren't for this Just out of the sight of the two guarding servants at the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, I asked you to take it off a long time ago. Aren't you worried that if those two people see it, they will think that we are ignorant and arrogant..."
Mrs. Lin muttered while helping Cheng Xiaoyu and the others take off their necklaces.
Cheng Xiaoyu and the others were extremely cooperative.
To be honest, they were extremely uncomfortable walking on this section of the road. Their necks were stiff and they did not dare to move, for fear that the collar around their necks would be broken by them.
It was the first time that they were walking outside wearing such expensive jewelry, and they were worried that someone might come and snatch it away.
Cheng Wan saw it funny, she helped Li Yuan take off the necklace and said: "With the few of us who are so plainly dressed, who would believe that this necklace is real? There are probably more people who think it is a fake. "
Mrs. Lin ignored Cheng Wan. She took out the piece of red silk cloth that she had specially asked for from Mrs. Xu when they were leaving, and carefully wrapped the three Yingluo in the red silk cloth.
"This thing is very valuable at first glance. When I get home, I will give this thing to your mother and ask them to keep it safe for you. When you get married, this will be the best thing in the box. Your husband's family will not dare to bully you easily. .”
