“This is a gift from Xiao Ning, please open it and take a look!”
“Come and open it, this is a wedding gift from my sister-in-law.” Xu Ailing held the box in front of Zhou Min.
Zhou Wanglong walked over to help. Together, they opened the small button on the wooden box, opened the box, and took out the contents.
Zhou Wanglong was one of Ning Xi's powerful generals, so giving him a gift should not be tacky or too stingy. After much thought, she drew a picture of herself and asked Chow Dafu to help customize a desk lamp.
The main body of the table lamp is round. The circular frame is made of green jade and is inlaid with a circle of tungsten wire, and is inlaid with glass on both sides.
There is also a table made of emerald green jade in front of the table lamp. On the left side of the table is a red kapok tree carved with blood jade. In the middle is a pair of gold dolls. Beyond the dolls is a lotus plant carved from emerald green jade. Each hole in the lotus pod is inlaid with a lotus seed made of black jade.
The two women exclaimed almost simultaneously with their bright eyes, "So beautiful."
Zhou Wanglong looked embarrassed, "This is made of jade and gold, it's very expensive."
Ning Xi pretended not to hear Zhou Wanglong's words and asked Xu Ailing to plug in the phone, "This is not just an ornament, it's also a lamp. Plug it in."
The switch of the desk lamp is on the back of the main body, and the light yellow light is turned on immediately.
Zhou Min was extremely excited, "It can be used as a light bulb. It's nice and beautiful. Where did my sister-in-law buy this? It's amazing."
"I designed this lamp. This lamp really embarrassed me. In the end, it was Brother Nan who came up with the idea." In this era, there were no special lamp strips and all tungsten lamps were used. Ning Xi was thinking a lot. I couldn't figure out how to make this thing. In the end, Lu Nan proposed to go directly to the light bulb factory to customize the tungsten filament. Make a small groove in the jade, place a ring of tungsten filament inside, and inlaid glass on the outside to make a large tungsten filament. lamp.
Ning Xi pointed at the red tree, "This is made of blood jade and is called a kapok tree. In some places, it is also called a love tree. I hope that the love between you will never wither like this love tree."
Xu Ailing pointed at the lotus pod and said, "This is the lotus pod. The lotus seeds represent the birth of a child early. My sister-in-law got you a lotus pod directly to wish you many children and grandchildren."
“That’s pretty much what it means.” Ning Xi smiled and pursed her lips. Actually, she didn’t think too much about it. It just wouldn’t look good if she placed a lotus seed anywhere, so she just made a lotus pod.
"Sister-in-law, thank you." Zhou Min's eyes were red with excitement, and she turned around to protect Ning Xi's waist.
"Don't cry! It's unlucky to cry on this special day." Ning Xi smiled and patted Zhou Min on the back. "If you really want to thank me, just grab Zhou Wanglong and prevent him from leaving the food factory." ”
Zhou Min nodded hurriedly, "Promise to complete the task."
"Boss, you found me a wife just to tie me up in the food factory!" Zhou Wanglong pretended to be sad and covered his heart, "It's so sad. It's a shame that I treat you as my boss. I want to do great things with you. Son, it turns out that you want to enslave me. My heart hurts so much. My wife, I love you so much, but you are only treating me well to complete the task. "
“The scene is over.” Ning Xi rolled her eyes at Zhou Wanglong, “Okay, okay, hurry up and get out, the new wife needs to change clothes and put on makeup.”
“Great!” Zhou Wanglong immediately rolled away.
sad? Feeling distressed?
Nothing.
Being able to be seen by Ning Xi, letting Ning Xi try to leave him here is that God saw him pitiful, and deliberately arranged a Bole to save him. Being able to be favored by Zhou Min was a blessing he had accumulated over several lifetimes.
Because the two of them had already held the job with certificates, and it was far and troublesome to go back to the countryside to meet the bride, they did not engage in the wedding ceremony. They held a wedding ceremony at noon and treated the guests to a big meal. The two of them considered their marriage. .
The meal ended in the evening. Except for Lu Nan, all the men present were drunk, especially the groom, Zhou Wanglong, who had long been lying on the table and unresponsive.
"Xiao Min, come here." Zhou Tong was also drunk today. He leaned on Lei Zi and groped in his pocket for a long time, not knowing what he wanted to touch.
"Being so drunk and knowing how to get money means that our girl has not wasted so many years on you, a brother-in-law." Xu Ailing scolded, took out a pile of money from her bag and placed it in front of Zhou Tong. .
Zhou Tong hunched over and looked at the money on the table for a long time before reaching out to grab the money, grabbing Zhou Min's hand and placing the money in Zhou Min's hand.
Before Zhou Min could react, Zhou Wanglong, who was slumped on the table beside him, jumped up and wanted to take the money and return it to Zhou Tong. "Brother, what are you doing? I can support her and I don't need your money."
"Get out of here." Zhou Tong slapped Zhou Wanglong's hand away roughly and pushed him away. "Am I giving this to you? This is the dowry for my younger sister."
Zhou Tong was afraid that Zhou Wanglong would take away the money, so he grabbed Zhou Min's other hand. The brother and sister put their hands on the money together, "Yao sister, this one hundred thousand yuan is the dowry given to you by your brother and your sister-in-law. You have to pay for it first." Take it and save it. You and Wang Long will work harder to save enough money. When you have enough money, pay back your sister-in-law's money first, and then slowly save it as you make money."
“Since you have recognized him, follow him well and don’t divide yours and his. The two of you work hard together, and your life will gradually get better.”
"Don't think that what I gave you is a dowry, and you can't bear to take it out even if you keep it. I tell you, our sister-in-law is definitely not wrong about the person she likes. That boy Zhou Wanglong will definitely have a big future in the future. Are you willing to follow him now? He lives a hard life, but when he gets rich, will he be embarrassed?"
"No, that kid is a person who knows how to repay kindness. As long as you are willing to work hard with him, he can give you his heart and give you anything."
Zhou Wanglong was pushed by Zhou Tong and fell to the ground. He did not get up. He sat on the ground with a sting and looked at his uncle in confusion.
No, brother-in-law, you said you want to teach your sister, are you going to hide from him as your younger sister? You have said all this. If he is a stickler, he will definitely think that brother-in-law is looking for it. Only when he can make a lot of money will he use the money to help them.
If he really thinks so, can he still remember their kindness and be kind to Xiao Min?
"It looks like she's really drunk." Xu Ailing shook her head helplessly and reached out to pat Zhou Min. "When Xiao Min becomes a wife, you are an adult. Many times, you can't just care about yourself. With your mother’s family, you still have to take Wang Lung as your boss most of the time, you know?”
“Thank you, brother, thank you, sister-in-law.” Zhou Min did not refuse the money given by Zhou Tong. She knew that her brother and sister-in-law could make money now, and she wanted to help them.
“Daughter-in-law, the little one is sleepy, let’s go back.” Lu Nan walked to Ning Xi and whispered to Ning Xi while holding Jin Bao who was already yawning.
Ning Xi glanced at the Jin Bao and then at the Nian Bao in Ning Xiuhe's hand. Knowing that the two children wanted to sleep, she did not stay any longer and stood up to leave.
"Second uncle, second aunt, second brother, and second sister-in-law, you and Xiao Lin and Xiao Xue will stay here tonight. Don't run away late at night. The same goes for you Lei Zi. I will give you the same room as before." The bed is ready, just go and sleep in a while." Ning Xi told everyone and prepared to go back.
Lu He and his family now live in the food factory, which is the same house that Lu Zhenghua and his family used to live in. This makes it easier for them to manage the business in the factory without having to travel back and forth.
