Chapter 660: Chapter 660
“Uncle Qu, you’re too polite. It was our duty. Moreover, we really didn’t do anything. On the contrary, if it weren’t for Meng’er, we wouldn’t know what would have happened to us,” Chen Ping said sincerely.
Really, if they hadn’t adopted Chen Meng’er, Chen Ping didn’t dare think that they would still be farming in their hometown.
“Alright, cut the crap. Today is a happy day. Just drink the wine,” Elder Liu said when he saw them dawdling.
“Come, Meng’er, come to Grandma.” They finished drinking. On the other side, Madam Qu called Chen Meng’er over.
Chen Meng’er obeyed and stood up, walking to Madam Qu’s side.
“Meng’er, this is my gift for you.” As she spoke, Madam Qu put a crystal clear jade bracelet on Chen Meng’er’s arm. Seeing the jade bracelet that Madam Qu took out, Han Ying and the others’ eyes darkened. They knew that this was Madam Qu’s dowry. At that time, she had even joked with their mother-in-law about whether this bracelet would be given to their granddaughter-in-law in the future.
The value of this jade bracelet could be imagined.
“Thank you, Grandma.” Chen Meng’er could tell the value of the jade bracelet at a glance. However, Chen Meng’er had a lot of such items in her space. In the eyes of others, this thing that was priceless was really nothing to Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er accepted it generously. In her heart, she had long planned when she would personally carve a beautiful pendant for the Qu family’s two elders as a return gift.
“What are you thanking me for? Come, sweetie, this is Grandpa’s welcome gift to you.” At this time, there were no credit cards so Madam Qu directly stuffed a passbook into Chen Meng’er’s hands.
No one knew how much money was in the passbook that Madam Qu stuffed into Chen Meng’er’s hands, but Han Ying and the others’ eyes darkened. They knew that with the importance that their in-laws attached to Chen Meng’er, the money in this passbook would not be little.
Han Ying and the others felt uncomfortable, but they could not show it on their faces. Moreover, they had to pretend to be happy.
Han Ying smiled, she called out to Chen Meng’er. “Meng’er, come, this is our welcome gift to you. The welcome gift that your uncle and I prepared is definitely not as good as the one that your grandparents prepared. I hope Meng’er doesn’t mind.”
Han Ying prepared a set of pure gold jewelry. It was not outstanding, but it was not shabby either. Chen Meng’er took it and thanked her with a smile. “Thank you, Uncle. Thank you, Aunty.”
With Han Ying taking the lead, Wei Hongjuan, Cao Feiying, and Kong Fangfei all gave Chen Meng’er gifts. The gifts were similar and were all jewelry.
Although Cao Feiying had a smile on his face, the way she looked at Chen Meng’er was as if she wanted to eat her alive. Chen Meng’er did not show it on the surface, but in her heart, she despised Cao Feiying.
“Meng’er, this is a gift from me.” When it was Murong Ying’s turn, Murong Ying grabbed Chen Meng’er’s hand and put a necklace with a Buddha statue on Chen Meng’er’s neck. “This is something that I wore when I was young. I hope that it will guarantee you a safe life.”
The Buddha statue necklace that Murong Ying had given to Chen Meng’er was obviously not worth much. However, Chen Meng’er could not help but feel touched.
This was because this was given with love.
“Thank you, Mom. I like it very much.” Chen Meng’er gave Murong Ying a smile that came from the bottom of her heart.
“It’s good that you like it.” Murong Ying raised her hand to wipe away the tears in her eyes.
Every member of the Qu family gave Chen Meng’er a welcome gift. This welcome gift was something that some sincerely wanted to give to Chen Meng’er, while others were forced to do so. Chen Meng’er remembered all of these in her heart.
She had always been a person who had a clear line between love and hate.
Chen Meng’er had just finished accepting the gifts and sat down. Her brother, Qu Haoxiang, had clashed with Yuwen Jing. “Ah, Yuwen Jing, what right do you have to sit next to my sister? Originally, the three of us brothers were as tight as thieves. Why did you come to join in the fun?” Qu Haoxiang thought to himself. Now that he had two more helpers, he could take care of Yuwen Jing who always fought with him for his sister.
As soon as Qu Haoxiang said this, Chen Haoxuan and Chen Haoguo’s gazes were also focused on Yuwen Jing who was sitting on the other side of Chen Meng’er.
Yuwen Jing didn’t seem to hear Qu Haoxiang’s words. He was holding his chopsticks and picking up Meng’er’s favorite dishes for her.
“Ah, Yuwen Jing, what kind of attitude is this? I’m talking to you.” Qu Haoxiang pointed at Yuwen Jing excitedly and said.
“I’m picking up food for Meng’er. If you have anything to say, wait until after the meal. Otherwise, the elders will say that we are too unruly.”
However, when Yuwen Jing said this, Qu Haoxiang really calmed down a little. He even raised his head and looked carefully at his grandfather.
Chen Meng’er was there. As she ate the food that Yuwen Jing put in her bowl, she could not help but want to laugh. This brother of hers was really silly. He was not a match for Yuwen Jing.
