Chapter 982 - 984: You Are Just Prejudice
CHAPTER 982: CHAPTER 984: YOU ARE JUST PREJUDICE
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Pei Yicheng directly brought half a carload of gifts to the Xu Family for the New Year. This was his first time visiting the Xu Family for the New Year as Xu Nianhua’s boyfriend.
After Xu Qinghe and Ji Ying had a talk, their attitude changed quite a bit. After all, as parents, they always hope their children are happy.
Xu Nianhua was afraid he might get upset, so she subtly said many good things in front of him.
When Pei Yicheng came to visit, everyone was bustling and lively and even discussed going to South City together tomorrow.
"See how attentive he is to our family?" Ji Ying whispered in Xu Qinghe’s ear.
Xu Qinghe pursed his lips, saying, "That’s because he hasn’t married her yet."
"What, I’ve been married to you for so many years, and now that we have money, your heart has changed?" Ji Ying put her hands on her hips, raising her eyebrows, and looked at Xu Qinghe.
Xu Qinghe quickly shook his head and said, "How could that be!"
"You’re just biased. If someone is nice to us, you say it’s because they haven’t married into the family yet. If they aren’t nice to us, you complain about it. You’re really hard to please!" Ji Ying rolled her eyes, almost directly saying Xu Qinghe was trying to play the stern father-in-law.
Xu Qinghe, in frustration, chose to ignore her.
Ji Ying didn’t care, she played with her grandson, kept her daughter company, made delicious food, and couldn’t be bothered with Xu Qinghe.
In the evening, Xu Qinghe tried to make amends with Ji Ying by massaging her back and shoulders, his intention to appease her couldn’t have been more obvious.
"Xu Qinghe, I’m telling you, Yicheng is the son-in-law I’ve set my sights on. If you dare throw a tantrum and ruin our daughter’s happiness, I won’t let it slide." Ji Ying took this opportunity to say her piece.
Xu Qinghe thought about it and said, "As long as he doesn’t bully Nianhua, I won’t throw a fit."
"That’s more like it." Ji Ying, satisfied with his words, smiled broadly, pulling him to sit down and started massaging his shoulders and legs.
Last year, Xu Qinghe worked tirelessly at the furniture factory, getting up early and working late every day, which was quite exhausting.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, when Pei Yicheng came to pick them up, Xu Qinghe looked at Pei Yicheng with a smile, which startled Pei Yicheng, making him repeatedly ponder whether he had done something wrong.
Why did he feel like Xu Qinghe’s gaze gave him the creeps?
"I didn’t do anything wrong, did I? Didn’t wear the wrong clothes either, right?" Pei Yicheng looked down at himself, thinking everything seemed normal.
"Maybe my dad... figured things out?" Xu Nianhua guessed internally that perhaps her mom, Ji Ying, had done a good job with the persuasion. She changed the subject and asked, "Brother Cheng, when are you going to Ningbei?"
"When you all go together." Pei Yicheng had taken on all the work in South City during these days, intending to use this time to look at Liunian’s production and the incoming merchants.
At the end of last year, the Liunian Factory was already completed and put into production. Liunian’s perfumes and hand creams were hot sellers in South City and even several nearby big cities. The list of incoming merchants was endless, and finally, after deciding on one place with just one merchant, things didn’t get chaotic.
"That’s great, I’ll have company then." Xu Nianhua blinked her eyes, always feeling that with him around, everything seemed sweet.
At Ji Xinghua’s house, it was a big family gathering, very lively, even her uncles were there, everyone came with their families, even a cousin she hadn’t seen much before came with her children.
Xu Nianhua was full of emotions but felt that such changes were wonderful, seeing the smiles on her parents’ faces never fade.
