Shen Jingyi suddenly raised her eyes and stared at Xu Zhongxia and asked: "How much did it cost? This multi-treasure bracelet is very expensive, right? It's twice as much as your father's belt?"
Xu Zhongxia said with a guilty conscience: "No twice, less than."
"Where did you get so much money? How much was the year-end bonus?"
"It's impolite to inquire about other people's income." Xu Zhongxia replied.
"Hmph, I'm your mother, so I can't ask anymore? It's really suspicious to be so generous all of a sudden." Shen Jingyi stared shrewdly at Xu Zhongxia.
"What's suspicious?" Xu Zhongxia could only use feigned anger to cover up his guilty conscience, "The year-end bonus is tens of thousands. I have saved a lot of money over the years, but I don't usually spend much, and it's not that I don't have money. It's just that Because I haven't bought anything for you for two years, I bought it this time. Who knows that buying something is not flattering, and you still have to blame me, hum, I won't buy it in the future!"
The whole family laughed, and Xiaotuanzi laughed too, although he didn't know what the adults were laughing at.
Xu You laughed loudly, while Shen Jingyi said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it seems that the cheapskate's gift can only be received this time."
Xu Zhongxia said: "I bought gifts for everyone, including Xiaotuanzi."
"Oh! There is a gift!" Xiaotuanzi cheered, he had been waiting eagerly for a long time.
Today, Xu's dining table was moved to a place, and moved out from the dining area, so that you can see the big TV in the living room. After six o'clock, the family sat around to eat the New Year's Eve dinner. The background music on the TV was full of joy, and it played interviews with some of the cast and crew who participated in the Spring Festival Gala, interspersed with some retrospective programs from previous years.
Xu Zhongxia looked down at his phone from time to time, and Mai Lidong had already sent a lot of messages, asking how Xu Zhongxia's home was doing, and automatically reported the situation at his home.
He has already learned that his mother and aunt met Xu Zhongxia's mother in the supermarket. Mai's mother was furious after returning, but now she has calmed down.
He comforted Xu Zhongxia: "It's okay, don't panic, let's meet if we meet, both sides have a psychological preparation, it is a buffer period. This is a very long psychological process, everything is the best arrangement, for sure It will develop in the good direction we hope, don¡¯t worry, there will be a way.¡±
Don't look at Mai Lidong who is usually reticent and reticent, but in Xu Zhongxia's place he can talk and comfort others. He looks at things with a high and rational attitude, which often makes Xu Zhongxia wonder if he is only 21 years old. He is so different from boys of the same age, precocious and precocious.
Mai Lidong also asked Xu Zhongxia if he gave his parents a gift, and if they liked it.
"Xia Xia, why do you always look down at your phone? The family had a reunion dinner together, and you always play with your phone!" Shen Jingyi complained.
Xu You chimed in and said: "Mobile phones are just bad, they always hang on to people's souls. In the past, there were no mobile phones, and only landlines were fine. If you can't get a call, you'll be fine, and you can live a stable life. Now it's fine. , I can find you anytime, anywhere, no matter what time it is, no matter what day"
Although it is rare for Dad to babble, it is more difficult to end than his mother. Xu Zhongxia quickly ended the conversation and put down the phone.
Shen Jingyi looked at her daughter and said, "Xu Zhongxia, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No, Mom!" Xu Zhongxia frowned. She was most afraid of her mother calling her by her first name, and it would be bad for her to use her first name every time.
"Your mother has sharp eyes, so don't try to fool me!" Shen Jingyi insisted, "Holding the mobile phone and giggling all day long, people who used to refuse to go out to play now go out all day and say they don't have a boyfriend? I don't believe it!"
Li Jiaying looked at Shen Jingyi, then at Xu Zhongxia, pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Xu Zhongxia let out a long breath and said, "Oh, Mom, you can do whatever you want, whatever you want."
"Isn't it a good thing to find a boyfriend? I won't talk about you, so you don't need to hide it. It's not a puppy love, and I'm 25 years old, and I'll be 26 during the Chinese New Year."
Xu Zhongxia heard Shen Jingyi adding her age up from one year to the next, and protested very unhappy: "24 years old! I'll be 26 somewhere, mom, don't play around!"
She already really minds that she is three years older than Mai Lidong, and now her mother immediately adds another two years to her, good guy! Seeing that there is a difference of five years.
"We southerners all talk about imaginary years. We are one year older during Chinese New Year. How could I have miscalculated for you! I wish you could bring a boyfriend back to show us. If you have one, just say it. Don't hide it. There¡¯s nothing shameful about that.¡±
"Mom, why do you speak so badly!"
"I think my words are not nice, hum," Shen Jingyi's expression suddenly changed, "Could it be that you found someone with a wife?"
"Mom! "Xu Zhongxia was so angry that he blushed and said, "Ms. Shen! The more you talk, the more outrageous it is! Can you stop talking nonsense with suspicion? It's good to speak responsibly. Is it appropriate for you to talk nonsense in front of the family? You, you, you are ruining my reputation! "
? Shen Jingyi knew she had made a slip of the tongue. Fortunately, Liu Xingyu went to the kitchen to open some red wine, so she didn't hear what she said just now, otherwise it would be really bad to say such things in front of outsiders.
"I made a mistake. I will apologize to you and eliminate the bad influence. Anyway, Mama Wu and your sister Jiaying are not outsiders. Is it better?"
"Okay, okay, your mother also apologized, for the Chinese New Year, eat vegetables!" Xu You hurriedly smoothed things over.
At this time Liu Xingyu came out with a newly opened red wine, and said with a smile: "The wine is here!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
