Chapter 118? Engagement

"Uncle, uncle! Come and move things!"

My eldest nephew Dongdong and niece Nannan trotted in happily wearing beautiful new clothes.

Liu Xu picked up a little guy with one hand and kissed it one by one. He was in a good mood.

The two sisters came in later and were unloading large and small bags from the trunk with happy faces. The two brothers-in-law were not here, so they were probably picking up their uncles and aunts at the hotel.

Liu Xu quickly stepped forward to help and asked:

"How long until brother-in-law and the others arrive?"

Seeing Liu Xu in formal attire, the eldest sister said with a smile:

"You are so handsome today. My silly brother is finally getting engaged! Your brother-in-law and the others are going to pick someone up. It will probably be a little later. My uncle and aunt will be here soon."

Fruits, firecrackers and other things were moved to the living room one by one. The two sisters checked the house again. After finding nothing wrong, they said with some envy:

"Your robot is really good. It takes care of everything and is much more reliable than you."

Liu Xu had a sad face and didn't know what to say.

The eldest sister said that she was stupid, and the second sister also said that she was unreliable. Liu Xu did not want to argue with them on this issue, so he could only smile and said:

"After today's work is over, I will give each of you two machines. The robots will just be debugged."

When they heard that Liu Xu was giving away a family robot, the two sisters were overjoyed.

If you have a good helper at home, you can free your own hands. Whoever is stupid will not be happy!

But the second sister asked doubtfully:

"Didn't you say it hasn't been announced to the public yet? How about giving it to us!"

Liu Xu smiled and replied:

"No problem, it's already posted on the Internet anyway; after the Chinese New Year, you can start making reservations, it doesn't matter."

"That's good, no problem.

We have an aunt in our family anyway. It doesn’t matter whether we use her or not, but it won’t affect your future development.

But do you really plan to sell it for 99,999 yuan? The price is so low, are you sure you can make money?"

Liu Xu explained seriously:

"Sister, the price has been carefully considered.

Although I don’t make much, my profits are pretty good.

Besides, it’s just one yuan away from one hundred thousand yuan. The price is not cheap, and many families can’t afford it.”

…

Not long after, when they heard the honking of a car outside, Liu Xu and his two sisters hurried out to greet them.

Two brothers-in-law arrived with their uncles and aunts in their cars, and there were many cousins ​​who drove here by themselves.

There was a lively crowd of about twenty people, large and small, and Liu Xu quickly called out one by one.

It was the first time for my uncles and aunts to come to the factory villa. After getting off the car, my uncles and aunts were not in a hurry to go in. They kept looking around the villa and looked at the expensive villa.

In their eyes, such a house may not be beautiful, but it will definitely cost a lot of money.

Third uncle asked casually:

"Xiao Xu, how much did this house cost? Why does it feel weird everywhere I look?"

Seeing his uncle and uncle looking over, Liu Xu smiled and replied:

"The frame of the house is not worth much, only tens of millions."

Liu Xu didn't dare to tell the actual cost of the house, otherwise he would have to get criticized again.

When the third uncle heard about tens of millions, his expression suddenly changed, and he glared at Liu Xu angrily before saying:

"You kid, you spend so much money to build a house, but you don't know how to use your money wisely! How many people can live in such a big house? Can you live alone?

It’s such a waste of money to build such a large area! I don’t know how to save a little..."

Liu Xu did not dare to refute after hearing this, and looked like he was listening humbly.

There is no refutation. If you dare to refute, your uncle, aunt and others will definitely attack you in groups, and you will have to teach him a lesson.

Seeing Liu Xu humbly accepting the criticism with a low eyebrow, the third uncle nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"Young people just don't know how to cherish it. It's great to have money in the bank and earn interest. Although you are doing well now, you have to remember the old saying 'Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi'. No matter how much money you have,

Just try to be stupid everywhere, and when you run out of money, you will be laughed at by others."

Liu Xu accompanied the smiling face:

"What you're saying is that it's cold outside, so we'd better go inside and sit."

As a group of people walked into the living room, the house immediately became lively.

In particular, seeing the robot serving tea and water shocked the relatives who came here for the first time and made them talk more.

Amid the compliments from his elders and the envious eyes of his cousins, Liu Xu answered a bunch of questions.

While chatting for a while, Nangong Caiyue called Liu Xu.

According to the rules of their hometown, they need to set off firecrackers to welcome guests.

As soon as the elders heard that the in-laws were coming, they immediately went out to welcome them.

.

Liu Xu's parents were already gone. As the representative, the uncle was the first to greet the car when he saw it stopped.

Liu Xu was making introductions on the side. Fortunately, Nangong Jinhuan and Li Yanling didn't show any airs and greeted all of Liu Xu's relatives, including all of them.

When the uncle and other elders saw Nangong Jinhuan, they just thought he looked familiar. After all, the big shots on TV were far away from them.

But my cousins ​​are young people. As a major official in Xiangzhou, his appearance rate is very high, and it is normal for him to be recognized.

Liu Xu's eyes occasionally glanced at the carefully dressed Nangong Caiyue, who was wearing a red coat that Liu Xu asked Ba Sha to make with the skin of the red polar fox.

Because the red polar fox lives in extremely hot areas and often absorbs a special kind of heat energy, coats made from its fur are very warm to wear in winter, and the fur is soft and delicate. Liu Xu specially made a few pieces for his two sisters.

Sent one as a gift.

The coat completely wraps up the slender figure, and the long leather boots make the legs look even more slender.

Of course, Nangong Caiyue also glanced back shyly from time to time.

But there were too many people, so the two of them didn't dare to make too many small moves in front of everyone's eyes.

The group of people entered the room and sat down, and the uncle began to pour wine for Nangong Jinhuang.

This is a wedding wine. According to etiquette, everyone should have a few drinks to deepen the impression. However, Nangong Jinhuang has a special status. I am afraid that if he can come today, he will take time off after asking for leave, so drinking is definitely not allowed.

Seeing Nangong Jinhuan holding the wine glass, he was embarrassed for a moment and didn't know how to explain it. Liu Xu saw this and couldn't tell his identity directly, so he had to tactfully say to his uncle:

"Uncle Nangong has a special job, so I'm afraid he can't drink."

The uncle didn't wait for Liu Xu to finish speaking, he glared at him and said angrily:

"No matter how special your job is, how can you not drink when it's such a big event like your daughter's engagement? You're the only one who has a lot to do. You say so, my in-laws."

This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The cousin recognized Nangong Jinhuan's identity and had confirmed it with Liu Xu before. He was so frightened that he quickly stepped forward to persuade his father, but before he could speak, he was scolded again.

Nangong Jinhuan smiled awkwardly and explained:

"My dear, I am usually very busy at work, so I asked for leave in the morning, and I have to go to work later. The company stipulates that you cannot drink alcohol during working hours.

Let’s do this, wait until one day when you have a holiday and your in-laws come over and I’ll have a few drinks with you, okay?”

The uncle put down his wine glass with some dissatisfaction and said with a dark face:

"The rules of the workplace are set by people. A wedding drink can't delay work, right? No matter how busy the in-laws are at work, can they be busier than the Xiangzhou Speaker and the others? Right!"

Seeing this scene, the cousin next to him jumped up anxiously and whispered a few words helplessly to the third uncle. The third uncle was startled and stood up involuntarily. After looking carefully, he finally confirmed that Nangong Jin

Ming's identity, he quickly stepped forward and whispered into the eldest brother's ear:

"Boss, my in-laws are not allowed to drink because of their work, so we can just drink tea instead of wine. As long as everyone agrees, as long as Xiaoxu and the others are good, we will be happy, right?"

The uncle looked around and saw that there were fewer voices in the room. Everyone looked at him strangely and winked and shook their heads.

At this time, Li Yanling stood up and took the cup from her husband and said:

"My dear, I'm really sorry today. Jin Huang can't drink because of work. I'm here to propose a toast to you on his behalf."
