She did not dare to ask for such an expensive item. This item represented a far-reaching meaning. She hurriedly rejected it and said, "Grandma, this item is too expensive. I'm still young."
After saying that, she wanted to pull her hand back, but the old lady held onto it tightly. "What's the big deal? If you can't wear it now, you'll just keep it. You'll wear it when I grow up."
Kang Xiaoqiao quickly rejected her and said, "Grandma, I'm still young and I like to play. What a pity if I lose it. This bracelet is obviously a good item. Grandma, why don't you help keep it for now and wait..."
The old lady was unwilling. She glared at her and said, "I've buried my head in the dirt. I don't know when I'll go to see his grandpa. What if I forget it? I'll feel more at ease if I let you keep it."
Kang Xiaoqiao was in a dilemma. At this moment, Lu Yichen opened his mouth and said, "Grandma gave it to you. You can keep it."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at him and helplessly nodded and kept it. She said sincerely, "Thank you, grandma. I'll take good care of it."
No one saw her eyes flash. Since this was given to her by her future mother-in-law, it was naturally her recognition. How could she not want it? However, she still had to do something about her face. Otherwise, she would look frivolous and not steady enough if she took it.
Sure enough, after Kang Xiaoqiao took the bracelet, the old lady was very happy and said a few good words.
However, someone was unhappy. Wu Xiumei's eyes were almost red-eyed. That was an imperial jade bracelet. It was worth a lot of money. This stinky girl actually didn't want it. Bah, this girl was simply playing with lust. However, no one present exposed her. She were furious to death.
Kang Xiaoqiao naturally saw Wu Xiumei's expression and felt that this person was simply unreasonable.
However, Kang Xiaoqiao didn't know that although the old lady was very angry, she did have a great prejudice against the legendary Kang Xiaoqiao. She originally wanted to wait for Lu Yichen to bring her back so that she could properly discipline her.
How could such an outstanding grandson of hers marry a vulgar person from the countryside? However, she never thought of asking Lu Yichen to abandon her. She originally thought that after she was properly trained, she would let Kang Xiaoqiao keep this ancestral thing. However, the old lady didn't have any dissatisfaction when she saw her in person today.
Whether it was her appearance or her bearing, they were all top-notch. Although she was old, she was not blind.
Since the old lady had already given them a greeting gift, the others naturally could not fall behind. Therefore, Aunt Liu Fengxia, who was standing at the side, smiled and took off a solid gold bracelet from her hand and put it on Kang Xiaoqiao's hand. She smiled and said, "This gold bracelet is newly made. I don't know what kind of trinkets you young ladies like. If you don't like it, go melt it and make a new one."
Kang Xiaoqiao could feel it on her wrist. This gold bracelet was not light. It weighed 40 to 50 grams and was slightly wide with patterns carved on it.
Kang Xiaoqiao quickly took it off and said, "Aunt, this is too expensive."
However, just as she made a movement, she was held down by Liu Fengxia. She smiled and said, "It's nothing. It's just a little worldly thing. Sister-in-law only has one son. As her only daughter-in-law, no matter how much I give, it's not expensive. If Chenchen had many brothers and sisters, I wouldn't dare to give it to your aunt. I'm afraid that my family's assets are not even enough."
Haha! After she said that, she covered her mouth and laughed. The others also laughed. At this time, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl came forward and pulled Kang Xiaoqiao, saying, "Little aunt, just accept it. It's rare for my grandmother to be so generous."
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard this, she was stunned. Little aunt? This girl was only a few years younger than her. And, oh my mother, this first aunt was already a grandmother.
Seeing this, Liu Fengxia nodded at the little girl and said, "You're a little smart-ass. When did I lose you?"
The little girl chuckled when she was pointed at. Liu Fengxia turned around and said with a smile, "Take it, good girl. From now on, the two of you can live a good life together."
Seeing this, Kang Xiaoqiao did not decline. "Thank you, first aunt."
At this moment, a woman in her thirties suddenly appeared beside her. This person was the timid third uncle's wife. Before she could say anything, her face had already turned red.
The corners of Kang Xiaoqiao's eyes twitched. She was not young anymore, so why was she still so shy?
However, soon, her third aunt said with a red face, "Niece-in-law, this is my gift to you. Your third aunt is clumsy and honest, so I'll give you a big red packet to congratulate you on your wedding."
After saying that, she took out a red packet and stuffed it into Kang Xiaoqiao's hand. Then, she left. After the elders gave their gifts, they were of the same generation.
The Xia family's eldest uncle had three sons and two daughters. Among them, two of the younger sons were not married. The eldest brother was a serious and serious person. The eldest sister-in-law was a talkative and cheerful person. After giving Kang Xiaoqiao the gift, she said a few words.
The second uncle's family had two sons and four daughters. Now, they only had one son and one daughter. The third uncle's family only had two daughters. The older one was about the same age as Kang Xiaoqiao. He was also a shy person.
After this round, Kang Xiaoqiao received a lot of gifts. Of course, it was also fortunate that she had prepared a lot of snacks and gave them out one by one. When everyone saw it, they were very happy. They were all of the same age, so they were naturally gluttonous.
As for the elders, Kang Xiaoqiao gave her homemade herbal tea and some flower tea. When she came, Lu Yichen did not tell her that it was such a big family. Fortunately, she prepared a lot. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing.
It had to be said that second aunt, Wu Xiumei, didn't prepare any gifts. Her eldest daughter-in-law was unable to give her a gold bracelet and let her give it to her. It was all for her face.
What kind of person raised what kind of daughter? Seeing the gift from Kang Xiaoqiao, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl wearing a beautiful red dress looked like Wu Xiumei. She had a long face, thin lips, a high nose bridge, and raised the corners of her eyes. It was obvious that she was not easy to get along with. She pursed her lips and said with a look of disdain, "What kind of nonsense is this? Tsk, just using these things to make fun of people."
At this moment, flower tea was not practiced, and the herbal tea they drank was also very little. Seeing this, Kang Xiaoqiao narrowed her eyes. With an embarrassed look, she said, "Cousin is experienced and knowledgeable, so she naturally doesn't put these things in her eyes. What can I do? Cousin, I come from a farm family and am not as rich as cousin's family. Some of the tea products are picked and dried by me in the past. The proportion is suitable. It's best for a woman to drink detoxification to raise her appearance."
"It's just a small token of appreciation. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to make a fool of myself. I'm just afraid that people will see that I come from a farming family and say that I'm not well-educated. Cousin, you are elegant and graceful, so naturally, you know the words 'etiquette' and 'upbringing' better than me."
The last sentence was said in a very heavy voice, and everyone present heard it clearly.
