Chapter 157 New Year's Gift 22
Ziyue grabbed her coat and two wrapped gift bags from the table, then walked downstairs hand in hand with Chu Yijing.
Chu Yijing could tell at a glance that it was definitely a New Year's gift prepared for his parents.
He didn't know when Ziyue had prepared it, but the thought that Ziyue had also kept his parents in mind made him feel warm all over, and his heart almost melted into a puddle of water.
When we went down to the second floor, the two elderly people were already sitting on the sofa, ready to go out.
Ziyue presented the gifts to her uncle and aunt. The two elders were all smiles as they received New Year's gifts from their sure-fire daughter-in-law.
Ziyue gave Ms. Liu Zhixue a set of top-of-the-line skincare products, and gave Mr. Chu a fine Duan inkstone, because Mr. Chu enjoys writing calligraphy, and this Duan inkstone was exactly what he wanted.
The two elders were extremely pleased with Ziyue and wished their son could marry her the very next day.
The four of them went out together, with Ziyue and Ms. Liu Zhixue walking arm in arm in front.
The two men walked behind, carrying the two women's bags and other belongings; their expressions and their family status were exactly the same.
They explored the nearby shopping streets together, stopping to admire anything interesting they saw, taking photos against beautiful backdrops, enjoying food and drinks, and finally taking a walk along the beach...
On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, the two elders prepared to return home, as they still had some relatives to visit in their hometown.
This time, however, Ziyue planned to drive them back together with Chu Yijing.
I also took the opportunity to meet my elders and spend a few days in Chu Yijing's hometown.
Mr. Chu and Ms. Liu Zhixue were eager for Ziyue to go back to their hometown with them.
In addition, Ziyue also prepared a lot of nutritional supplements, local specialties, and gifts for the two elders. There were quite a lot of things, so it would be more convenient for them to drive back by themselves.
They set off at eight in the morning, took the highway, and arrived around two in the afternoon.
Mr. Chu and Ms. Liu Zhixue usually live in the school's faculty apartments, and during holidays they stay in their own house, which is not far from the school.
This is a community with a pretty good security environment. There are quite a few university teachers and professors who teach at the same school as them nearby.
People chatting and playing with their children downstairs saw Liu Zhixue and his wife return with their son and a pretty young woman beside them. Their eyes lit up and they quickly surrounded them. "Professor Liu, is this your daughter-in-law?"
Ms. Liu Zhixue beamed with joy, “Hahaha, this is my son’s girlfriend. We’re not married yet, but it’ll be soon. We’ll invite you to the wedding banquet, so please be sure to come!”
"Great! Great! Young Master Chu is so lucky. The girl is really beautiful!"
……
Ziyue gave Chu Yijing a meaningful look from behind, which made Chu Yijing jump. However, he still silently gave his mother a thumbs up in his heart. Ms. Liu Zhixue, well done!
After a brief exchange of pleasantries downstairs, they went upstairs, carrying several large bags and packages.
The room was not small, with one apartment per floor, a layout of four bedrooms and two living rooms. Ziyue lived next door to Chu Yijing.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Ziyue went with Chu Yijing's family to visit Chu Yijing's maternal grandparents. Perhaps because they had been informed in advance, the grandparents took a great liking to Ziyue and gave her a large red envelope.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zi Yueguang went to visit Chu Yijing's grandparents again. On the same day, she received quite a few red envelopes.
On the sixth and seventh days of the Lunar New Year, Chu Yijing took Ziyue to explore the city and sample some local delicacies.
The two of them didn't get back to Kunming until the afternoon of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. Because of traffic, they didn't arrive home until after 1 a.m.
The next day was the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
A new year brings new beginnings. On this day of the Zi month, I got up on time and opened the store with my employees.
When Li Pingping and the others came to work, they all brought a lot of local specialties from their hometowns for Ziyue.
Salted duck eggs, braised meat, sausages, pastries, and so on—the two double-door refrigerators, which had just managed to clear out some of their stock, were almost full again.
Li Pingping, in particular, excitedly said that after using the plaster given to her by Ziyue, her father's leg pain had been greatly reduced.
The whole family was extremely grateful to Ziyue. When Li Pingping came to work, the family prepared a lot of mountain products for her to deliver to Ziyue.
Since they were all gifts from others, Ziyue accepted them.
