After the flash marriage, the rich husband reveals his true colors every day
Chapter 22 Is This Your Girlfriend?
Lian Xi originally thought that only his grandfather and his parents were at home, but she didn't expect there would be so many relatives here, which made her even more frightened.
"Is this your girlfriend?"
The old man looked over and sized up Lian Xi in front of him, with a hint of kindness in his eyes.
Lu Sili nodded and took Lian Xi a step forward, "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, this is my girlfriend Lian Xi."
Lian Xi was a little nervous, but still greeted them obediently: "Hello, Grandpa, Uncle, and Aunt."
Lu Sili's parents seemed to have just returned not long ago. Father Lu was wearing a black suit and Mother Lu was wearing a dark green dress. They looked gentle and dignified, and both of them exuded nobleness.
"Good boy, come over here and let us have a good look."
Mother Lu waved her hand, and Lian Xi took two steps forward, letting her hold his hand and pulling her to sit on the sofa next to them.
"Your name is Xiaoxi, right?" Mother Lu's eyes were full of joy. She reached out and gently touched Lian Xi's head.
"Yes, Auntie."
Lian Xi was a little reserved. He sat very straight and didn't even know where to put his hands.
Mother Lu noticed Lian Xi's nervousness and uneasiness, and she smiled gently.
"Don't be nervous. We all like you. You don't have to be so reserved in front of us. Just do whatever you want."
Lian Xi was relieved by Lu's mother's words. The old man immediately replied, "Good boy, your aunt is right. Our whole family likes you very much, so just treat us as your real family."
The old man looked at the servant next to him and asked, "Is the food ready?"
The servant quickly said, "Master, everything is ready."
"Eat first, then talk slowly after dinner."
The old man spoke and made the decision, so the whole family sat down at the dining table.
Lian Xi was a little surprised when he saw the large table of food in front of him. The old man explained, "Knowing that you would come home today, I specially asked the servants to prepare some dishes that you like."
The old man made no secret of his preference for Lian Xi, which made those relatives somewhat dissatisfied, so they couldn't help but interrupt.
"Old man, you've taken the trouble to prepare so much, but I don't think others are willing to appreciate it."
Lian Xi looked at the person who was speaking, a middle-aged woman dressed in designer clothes. When she saw her looking at her, the woman snorted in dismay.
"Am I not telling the truth? You really think you are the future member of the Lu family. You've been showing off as soon as you entered the door." The woman's words made Lian Xi frown slightly.
Lian Xi was about to explain that he had no intention of showing displeasure, but the next second Lu Sili spoke up, "I can't let anyone talk about my people here. I advise Third Aunt to keep her mouth shut."
Third Aunt obviously didn't expect that Lu Sili would embarrass her in public for Lian Xi. Her face turned pale and blue for a moment.
"I'm doing this for your own good, why do you think it's my fault?" Third Aunt refused to give in.
The old man coughed heavily and looked at Aunt Three with sharp eyes.
"I'll say it again, Xiaoxi is my granddaughter-in-law. No one can say anything bad about her, or else get out."
His words silenced the crowd instantly. No one dared to speak again. After all, once the old man got angry, they simply could not bear his wrath.
When the old man saw them shut up, he withdrew his gaze with satisfaction.
After dinner, the old man drove away the large group of people, leaving only their family sitting in the living room.
Mother Lu went back to her room, took out a mahogany box from her room, and handed the box to Lian Xi.
"Good child, this is a bracelet that has been passed down from generation to generation in our family. It is only given to our daughter-in-law. You keep it well."
Lian Xi opened the box and took a look. Inside was a turquoise jade bracelet that looked priceless.
"Aunt, this is too valuable. I can't accept it." She quickly handed the box back and refused to accept it no matter what.
Mother Lu deliberately put on a stern face and said, "If you don't accept it, I will be really angry. Don't you want to be our daughter-in-law?"
Seeing that Mother Lu looked angry, Lian Xi panicked instantly and quickly took the bracelet away, "Aunt, don't be angry, I'll take it now."
Mother Lu then revealed a happy smile and personally put the bracelet on Lian Xi's wrist. She had a very fair complexion to begin with, and the emerald green bracelet made her complexion look even whiter than snow.
"Look how beautiful this bracelet looks on your hand." Mother Lu was smiling so hard that she could hardly close her mouth.
The old man also prepared a generous gift for Lian Xi, which was a house. She was almost scared to death, and she refused the gift with a firm attitude.
"Grandpa, I really can't accept this gift. It's too expensive." Lian Xi said as he handed the house deed in his hand back.
Lu Sili gave the old man a look, and the old man put the things back.
"Okay, okay, then I'll give you this gift after you give birth to the baby."
Lian Xi was even more surprised by the old man's words. She had thought that he had simply come back to see his family and had never thought that the old man would suddenly mention having a baby.
Lian Xi's face suddenly turned red, and he waved his hand quickly, "Grandpa, we just got married not long ago, isn't it a bit too early to have a child now?"
There was a hint of tentativeness in her tone, hoping that the old man would agree with her point of view.
"It's definitely best to have a baby sooner rather than later. You're strong and healthy now, so it'll be easier for you to recover after having a baby. If you delay having a baby for a few more years, it won't be conducive to your recovery."
The old man gave a lot of reasons and Lian Xi couldn't refuse at all.
"I'm old and I don't know how many more years I can live. I just want to see your children being born so that I can die without regrets," he said earnestly.
The old man has already said so, and if they refuse again it would seem that they are too heartless.
"Grandpa, the matter of having a baby depends on Xiaoxi's wishes. Don't worry, we will have the baby when it's time."
Lu Sili gave the answer for Lian Xi and did not force Lian Xi for the sake of the old man.
Lian Xi was touched. In fact, she was not opposed to having a baby. Besides, the old man had said so much, she couldn't just not give him any face at all.
"Grandpa, we will let the matter of having a child take its course." Lian Xi's words were equivalent to agreement. After all, as long as the two of them did not object to having a child, then as long as they lived a normal life, having a child was a matter of time.
"Okay, I feel relieved with your words." The old man nodded and said many more words of concern to them. Lian Xi felt a little dizzy. She had just drunk a few glasses of wine during dinner, so she was a little bit not sober at the moment.
