When Chen Jiaojiao was serving tea, Xie Xiuying's eyes were glued to her.
This outfit is no worse than the noble ladies he saw in Fucheng.
As expected, she was worthy of being a girl raised by a noble family. Not only was she beautiful, but her every move and gesture exuded dignity and courtesy, which was something that could not be cultivated by herself.
With this comparison, Xie Xiuying's eyes flickered a few times when she looked at her daughter.
If her daughter could stay here and be educated, would she be as elegant and dignified as Chen Jiaojiao in the future?
Xie Xiuran only brought his little daughter here this time. Both Xie Rongrong and Xie Ronlan had done wrong things, and they were the kind that could go to jail.
Xie Xiuran didn't want to make himself unhappy on his big day, so he took his youngest daughter with him.
Xie Rongxuan is the youngest girl in the family. It can be said that she has no idea about the things that Xie Rongzhao experienced when she was young. Even if she has a vague memory, she can no longer explain clearly at this time.
When Xie Rongrong was in her hometown before, her presence was very weak.
Not because of anything else, just because she is a daughter.
When she was pregnant with Xie Rongxuan, Gao always felt that she was pregnant with a son, because she had always liked eating sour food, and her belly shape was the same as when she was pregnant with her two sons, so all the preparations she made were for running. Came with my son.
As a result, I found out it was a daughter only after she was born.
When Mrs. Gao was greatly disappointed, she naturally felt a little resentful towards her daughter.
Although she would not treat her daughter harshly, the youngest would never be the first thing she thinks of if there is any good thing.
It was precisely because this daughter had no sense of presence at home that Xie Xiuran thought it was most appropriate to take her.
At least, she won't cause trouble like the two sisters above.
Chen Jiaojiao prepared a return gift for everyone.
What she prepared for Xie Xiuwen and Liu Ruolan were two sets of winter clothes she made by herself. They could be worn even if it was colder. They were made of good materials. It cost dozens of taels of silver.
What Xie Rongzhao and Xie Rongen prepared for Chen Jiaojiao was a rabbit fur hand warmer and a half-sized rabbit fur cloak. It was a rabbit that Xie Rongen had brought back from outside. It took a lot of effort for the two of them to make a few rabbits. come out.
Chen Jiaojiao's return gift to Xie Rongzhao was a pair of small gold bracelets with a small gold bell on them. They didn't seem too heavy, but they were exquisitely crafted.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. The bracelet is so beautiful. I like it very much."
Because Xie Rongzhao and Xie Rongen gave them gifts together, Chen Jiaojiao prepared a pair of shoes and a pair of kneepads for Xie Rongen.
"I heard that you are excellent in martial arts. Zhao Zhao always said that you spend money on clothes and shoes, so I made a pair for you. In addition, these knee pads are meant to help you keep warm when you are outside in winter."
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Xie Rongen took the things and was very happy.
Originally a young man, he was still a bit shy when meeting such a delicate girl like his sister-in-law. Now he is polite and cares about nothing, and his carefree temperament is immediately revealed.
What Xie Ronlang presented was an exquisite small incense burner, bought from outside.
Chen Jiaojiao took a second look at the incense burner. She thought it was small and beautiful, and the carvings on it were also very auspicious. She liked it very much.
"I heard that Brother Lang studies hard and is talented. I wish you can be on the list as soon as possible."
Xie Ronlang took the inkstone given by the sister-in-law and looked at it back and forth in his hand, unable to put it down.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, for taking your time."
The whole family finally got to know each other even after serving tea and then acknowledging relatives.
"Okay, let's have breakfast. Although we are not on duty today, we can't delay it too late."
Chen Jiaojiao stood beside Liu Ruolan and helped her lay out the bowls and chopsticks, then helped her fill a bowl of porridge and pick up a chopstick of vegetables. Liu Ruolan took her hand after that.
Chen Jiaojiao was startled and thought she had done something wrong.
"Mother?"
"Okay, let's just go through the motions. You go sit down and have a meal together. Our family doesn't have so many rules. We are all a family. We don't have to do these things anymore. If I really get to that time when I am too old to move. , it’s not too late to trouble you again.”
Chen Jiaojiao was deeply moved. Her mother-in-law was so considerate and loving, which was beyond her imagination.
Originally, she thought it would take at least a few months. After all, it is only natural for a daughter-in-law to serve her mother-in-law.
Many of her former friends were married, and some had already married and had children, but they still had to serve their mother-in-law.
Her mother had always said that Mrs. Xie was kind and not someone who treated her daughter-in-law harshly, so she thought that she would have to serve her for at least a few months until she became pregnant, and that might be better.
But last night, Xie Ronghui said that there were not such strict rules in the house, and she only thought that her mother-in-law spoke kindly and would not get angry easily.
I never expected that it would be like this!
After Chen Jiaojiao sat down, she still felt it was unreal. It was not until Xie Ronghui on the side brought her a soup dumpling that she came back to her senses. Her face couldn't help but turn red. When she opened her eyes, she happened to meet Xie Rongzhao's joking gaze, and she suddenly regained consciousness. A bit shy.
Xie Xiuying and the others sat at another table. Since today was the first time they had breakfast together, Xie Xiuwen arranged for their family to sit at one table and the rest of the family at another table.
Starting from lunch, it may be necessary to separate the seats for men and women.
Xie Ronlang smiled and said, "Brother treats my sister-in-law very well."
Xie Rongzhao patted his arm: "Shut up and eat your food."
Xie Ronlang glanced at her with a smile and quickly brought her a piece of black rice cake.
"Sister, eat it. I just tasted a piece. Today's one is not too sweet, it's just right."
Xie Rongzhao tilted his head and smiled: "My brother Lang is also very kind to me!"
After saying these words, Xie Ronghui on the side blushed, and Chen Jiaojiao was even embarrassed to look up.
Liu Ruolan chuckled: "Okay, if you don't say anything when you eat, if you don't obey again, you will not be allowed to eat at noon."
Chen Jiaojiao was very happy in her heart. Although it was a little out of order just now, the atmosphere was really good.
She liked it from the bottom of her heart.
On the day she returned home, Liu Ruolan asked Fang Hu to put all the gifts he wanted to bring in the front hall.
"You guys go take a look later. If there's anything missing, just tell Butler Fang. I bought some parts according to the rules of my hometown. If it's not appropriate, we can replace it."
As soon as Xie Ronghui and Chen Jiaojiao entered the door of Chen's house, Mrs. Chen took her daughter to the backyard.
"How is it? How does he treat you?"
Chen Jiao blushed shyly and said, "Well, my husband is very nice, and the Xie family also treats me very well. Especially my mother-in-law, she usually doesn't need me to set the rules. Even when eating, she will sit and eat together and never need me to serve her." .”
Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up with joy. As a mother, who would want to let her daughter go to her husband's house to be tortured?
