"Dad, Mom, he's my boyfriend, Jiang Xiaobai. They're my parents, my uncle, my aunt, my cousin, and my brother-in-law!" Han Yuxi introduced.
"Hello Uncle, Auntie, Eldest Uncle, Aunt, Cousin, and Cousin!" Jiang Xiaobai looked at Han Chengtian and Wang Xiuqin as he said without any hesitation.
Even though he knew that other than Yuxi's mother, Wang Xiuqin, she would try to make things difficult for him today, Jiang Xiaobai still greeted her anyway. He had to be polite.
"Jiang Xiaobai, right? Yuxi has been talking about you every single day. Come over and take a seat! " Wang Xiuqin stood up and said enthusiastically. As for the others, no one said a word, let alone stood up.
"Thank you Auntie!" Jiang Xiaobai nodded and walked to the sofa with Han Yuxi and sat down.
"He came empty-handed?" As soon as he sat down, Han Honghong was the first to issue a challenge.
The first time he came, he should at least bring some gifts.
Jiang Xiaobai was caught red-handed.
"Dad, when A-Li first came to visit that year, did she bring anything with her?" Han Lanlan followed his words and looked at her father.
"Of course I did. At that time, A-Li was just starting out and didn't have much money, but he still had two bottles of Maotai wine, a box of Longjing wine and some other things. I can't remember clearly!"
Han Cheng said with a smile. He was a hundred times satisfied with his son-in-law.
"Humph!" Originally, Han Chengtian was already unhappy because Jiang Xiaobai came empty-handed. At this moment, when Han Lanlan and Han Chengzhi said that again, compared to Xu Zhenggaang, he could not keep his face in check. He let out a displeased snort.
"They're all still children, how can they be so good? We don't lack anything at home, what do we need to take?" Wang Xiuqin quickly spoke up for Jiang Xiaobai.
"Dad, at most, I'll make it up to you next time!" Han Yuxi also quickly said. She felt a little guilty and blamed herself for neglecting and not telling Jiang Xiaobai in advance, causing Jiang Xiaobai to forget about it.
"Uncle, Auntie, I've brought a present!" At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai opened his mouth and said. Previously, when Han Lanlan, Han Chengdi, and Han Honghong argued, he did not utter a word, nor did he directly refute.
He waited for everyone to finish their words before he opened his mouth. On top of that, his mood was very calm and tranquil.
"Hehe …" Han Lanlan sneered. She looked at Jiang Xiaobai's left and right hands exaggeratedly. Her meaning was obvious. Jiang Xiaobai was obviously empty-handed. What gift did he bring?
Han Yuxi was getting a bit anxious. Jiang Xiaobai didn't bring any gifts, so it could be said that he made a small mistake. However, if Jiang Xiaobai was lying and lying so blatantly, then his impression points would be deducted by a lot.
"This is my gift to uncle and aunt!" Jiang Xiaobai took out an exquisite cloth hood and put it on the tea table.
The cloth wasn't big.
When Jiang Xiaobai took it out, everyone's gaze turned towards Bu Hu.
The eyes of Han Lanlan, Xu Zhenggaang, Han Chengdi, and the others were filled with ridicule.
What could such a small cloth bag hold?
Was this gift meant to humiliate people?
Sure enough, Han Chengtian's face darkened, and even Wang Xiuqin frowned slightly.
"What gift?" However, Han Yuxi was very curious and took the cloth bag.
She took two boxes out of the cloth bag.
Two palm-sized boxes.
Han Yuxi then opened the two boxes.
"This is just a pipe, it's a gift to uncle, this is a ring, a gift to auntie!" Jiang Xiaobai introduced the both of them briefly.
"So beautiful!" On the other hand, Han Yuxi's face was filled with pleasant surprise as she stared at the ring. The ring was entirely emerald green, sparkling like a green wave. It was dazzling to the eye.
Han Lanlan's pupils constricted. She could not believe what she had just heard!
Let's not talk about the pipe first. Just about the ring. It looks really good. Jadeite? Impossible!
If it was a true emerald, how much would such a good quality cost? More than ten million, right?
An orphan, a freshman student from a third-rate university, taking out tens of millions to buy an emerald ring? Hehe... This joke was not funny.
"Why does this pipe look a little old?" Han Yuxi then looked at her pipe and asked curiously.
Old?
When Han Yuxi asked this question, Han Chengtian, who originally looked better, suddenly became even more sullen.
He was surprised that Jiang Xiaobai was able to think of giving him the pipe. He also felt that Jiang Xiaobai was being diligent because the pipe fit his heart very well. Jiang Xiaobai liked the pipe very much and he even collected quite a few.
But what did an old pipe mean? This meant that he had used it!
Is he looking down on me, Han Chengtian? He, Han Chengtian, was only fit for an old pipe?
"Cluck, cluck …" Han Lanlan couldn't hold back her laughter as she laughed mockingly.
Han Honghong, Han Chengdi, and Xu Zhenggaang also had a look of disdain on their faces as they looked at Jiang Xiaobai as if he was a beggar.
How shameful!
Han Yuxi looked at Jiang Xiaobai in remorse. She was just asking out of curiosity, she didn't expect...
He had talked too much!
Her eyes were a little red.
If Jiang Xiaobai was hated by his father and the others because of this, it would be his fault!
"Han Yuxi!" Han Yuxi! What's the matter with you? Why is it always a big help? " Han Yuxi bit her lips and questioned herself from the bottom of her heart. She was incredibly regretful that she had said so much.
"This pipe belongs to the Tang Dynasty!" The next second, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly opened his mouth: "It's an antique, that's why it looks old!"
The moment Jiang Xiaobai said this, suddenly!
Silence.
The entire hall fell silent.
A few breaths later.
"Hahaha …" Han Lanlan burst into laughter. It was an extremely exaggerated laugh. "Tang Dynasty's pipe?" Antiques? "Jiang Xiaobai, don't tell us that this pipe is worth millions, right?"
"Young man, it doesn't matter if you're poor, but you have to be honest!" Han Cheng said with a solemn voice and a strong tone.
"That's right. I hate people who lie the most in my life!" Han Honghong snorted and snorted at Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai remained calm. He looked at Han Lanlan and said, "I don't know if this pipe is worth millions. I asked a friend to get it. He didn't tell me the price!"
"What about this ring? Is it emerald? " Han Lanlan asked playfully, as if teasing a fool.
"It should be emerald in color!"
Jiang Xiaobai nodded. Because he had heard from Han family people that Wang Xiuqin liked jadeite jewelry, when he asked Wang Beishan to prepare the gift, he specified for jadeite jewelry. Thus, he was sure that the ring was jadeite.
"Alright! If you say it's an emerald, then it's an emerald. If you say it's an antique, then it's an antique! " Han Lanlan couldn't help but look at Han Yuxi. "Sofia, your boyfriend is very good!"
That was a good word. Han Lanlan said it very, very heavily!
"Close the gift box!" Han Chengtian said to Han Yuxi in a bad tone.
