Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: Truly Thoughtful
This breakfast was quite joyful.
As Sister-in-law He was cleaning up the dishes with the children, Mr. He asked, "How long are you staying at home this time?"
He actually wanted to ask if they could stay for the New Year, but considering the two weren’t married yet, Xinyan definitely wouldn’t be staying here for the New Year, so he changed the question.
He Jinxuan glanced at Xinyan beside him: "Mom and Dad, on the twenty-sixth of the lunar month, Xinyan’s cousin is getting married, so we have to rush back. We won’t be able to stay at home for many days.
The first reason we came back is to visit you with Xinyan, and secondly, to check into the matter with Yanqing."
When their daughter was mentioned, the faces of Mr. and Mother He fell.
Mother He was the first to respond, fearing Xinyan might misunderstand, she said, "Just as Yanqing’s little confinement period is over, the matter indeed needs to be resolved. Previously, your father stopped us from going because he feared if there’s a fuss, the Cui Family might neglect her, and if her health isn’t restored it could impact her entire life."
Mr. He heaved a sigh: "It’s time to visit them, otherwise the Cui Family might think our daughter from the He Family is easy to bully."
After saying this, he looked toward Mother He: "Call their families over for dinner tonight and discuss Yanqing’s issue."
When they finished chatting, Sister-in-law He had also tidied up the kitchen.
Xinyan gestured for He Jinxuan to bring over the bag and took out some special products from Beijing: "Auntie, please distribute these."
Then she took out two bottles of Moutai and a pack of special cigarettes: "Uncle, these are from my father, he asked me to bring them."
Upon hearing these were specially for him, Mr. He’s face crinkled with a smile: "Oh, in-laws are really too kind, making such expenses."
Xinyan smiled faintly and said, "Over the New Year, it’s just right for a drink."
Mr. He held onto the wine, his eyes full of smiles: "Yes, such good wine is perfect for New Year."
As Xinyan spoke, she pulled out a cotton coat from the bag: "Aunt, my mom helped me pick this coat for you."
Mother He was overjoyed hearing she had a gift, her face beaming: "You really put a lot of thought into this, thinking of me."
After that, Xinyan fetched some stationery: "These are for the school children, please distribute them."
This stationery was brought by Xinyan from the South earlier, and the children’s eyes lit up upon seeing it.
Sister-in-law He patted the daughter standing next to her: "Quickly thank your third uncle and aunt, they came all this way thinking to bring things for you. Always remember their kindness."
All the kids simultaneously looked at Xinyan and He Jinxuan: "Thank you, Third Uncle and Aunt."
Lastly, Xinyan took out a few jars of her own lotion: "This lotion is for the women in the family, one each, very nourishing for the skin in winter."
Mother He initially wanted to refuse, but He Jinxuan picked up a jar and put it in her hand: "This is personally made by Xinyan, don’t waste the effort she put in."
Mother He had nothing else to say afterward: "Okay, okay, I’ll definitely use it myself."
Looking at the gifts Xinyan laid before her, her face was all smiles.
So many things were brought because it’s her first visit after engagement, she didn’t want to appear impolite.
As for the meeting gifts for He Yuejin’s children, she didn’t take those out.
After the pleasantries, everyone dispersed.
Mother He initially wanted to arrange them to rest, but He Jinxuan refused.
And he gave a good reason, so Mother He didn’t insist, only reminding them: "Just come back early tonight."
He Jinxuan nodded in agreement, then headed out with Xinyan, carrying a package, preparing to take a car to the Mechanical Factory.
They arrived just in time, as a bus was about to depart.
The two got on the bus and found a place to sit when they heard someone calling them: "Director He, Xinyan sister."
Both looked towards the person speaking.
It turned out to be Jiao Sini from the family compound, Xinyan exclaimed in surprise: "Sister Wu."
Jiao Sini didn’t expect to run into them: "Are you two on vacation?"
As she spoke, she even got up to switch seats with a passenger nearby.
