Chapter 27 No Gifts

Su Nian solved the matter and the afternoon work went smoothly.

On my way home from get off work, I rode my electric scooter to the vegetable market and bought a lot of vegetables to prepare for tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the weekend, and the parents from both sides are going to meet, so she is still a little worried.

Logically speaking, it was most convenient to eat out, but when she thought about her money, she twitched with distress, and decided to cook it herself.

Although her cooking skills are not very good, she can still make some home-cooked dishes.

When she got home, she probably tidied up everything that needed to be washed and put away.

I didn’t have time to make dinner, so I made instant noodles and ate instant noodles while reading novels.



Huo Jinyan checked on the Internet how long it would take to cook for a table of more than a dozen people.

It is said online that the entire set takes about three hours on average.

Although Huo Jinyan ate a lot of breakfast from Su Nian, he had never seen her cooking a main meal. In order not to mess up, he still had to prepare it in advance.

He asked his life assistant, Ah Fan Ah Rong, to prepare some ordinary dishes that are more friendly to the people, preferably semi-finished products that can be eaten after a little processing.

By the way, I asked the two of them to make the packaging more user-friendly.

So, Huo Jinyan carried a large bag of semi-finished dishes that were friendly to the people and returned home.

When Su Nian saw him buying so many things, he stood up and went over and asked, "Why did you buy so many?"

"There are more people in my house."

"What I prepared should be enough." Su Nian actually counted the number of people and asked Huo Jinyan before.

"It doesn't matter if you prepare more."

Su Nian took the things and put them away.

Seeing that what he bought were semi-finished products, I knew that men only buy food for convenience, but it is indeed very convenient, and it doesn't matter if it is expensive to buy it once or twice.



On Shu Ran's side, Tiantian settled down and talked to Meng Zhihui about going to Su Nian's place for dinner the next day.

Meng Zhihui frowned: "I have to work overtime tomorrow."

"Didn't I tell you before to free up your weekend time?"

"Overtime is a temporary arrangement. I have to listen to what the boss says, right?" Meng Zhihui said, "Besides, we are not related to Su Nian. You can go alone and I can join in the fun if you don't mind."

"Even if we are invited as friends, there is no need to say this, right? Besides, what is our relationship with Su Nian? She has no father or mother, so I am her biological sister."

But Meng Zhihui had his own considerations: "I told you not to get too close to Su Nian, it's not good. Didn't you hear that her uncle knew about her marriage and already came to ask about it today? Do you think it was a question?

What? Is it because I care about her? I want to ask about the bride price! I want to ask Su Nian’s husband for a large sum of money as a gift!"

"Of course I've heard of it. They didn't raise Su Nian, so why should they give them a betrothal gift?" When Shu Ran heard about this, she felt that her uncle's family were extremely scoundrels. Where did they get their face?

"As long as you have heard of it. The boyfriend Su Nian talked about before has a powerful mother. What does the husband of this flash marriage have? He is still being pinched by his uncle's family? He wants a bride price with his mouth open. That man

If I can’t give it, will Su Nian have to ask you to borrow it?”

What Meng Zhihui fears most is that Su Nian and her grandmother will ask Shu Ran to borrow money.

An old man and a young man are very unreliable. I heard that the husband had a flash marriage, which is even more unreliable. Meng Zhihui is really afraid of getting into trouble, and he is afraid that Shu Ran will use money to fill a bottomless hole.

"Then why don't you go?" Shu Ran heard what he said and was too lazy to explain that Su Nian's husband worked in Huo Group.

When did my husband become so snobbish?

Meng Zhihui had no intention of going, so there was really no need to go now.

Early the next morning, Shu Ran took Tiantian and Su Nian's grandmother to take a taxi to Splendid Forest.

Grandma is old and it is inconvenient to take public transportation, so Shu Ran is not afraid of spending the taxi fare.

Su Nian was waiting for them at the door. When she saw them coming, she quickly picked up Tiantian, hugged her, and accompanied them upstairs.

Grandma was not worried about Su Nian at first, but after seeing the environment of this community and Huo Jinyan's house, she felt much more at ease.

"Jin Yan is going down to pick up his family and will be back in a moment." Su Nian explained while pouring water.

Song family.

Huo Jinyan's grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, two cousins, eldest cousin, and cousin Song Lianyi all changed into cheap clothes that Song Lianyi had prepared urgently in the past few days.

After the whole family had packed up, they went downstairs and boarded a bus chartered by the driver of the Song family.

Mrs. Song smiled and said: "This bus is good and spacious. It can be used frequently in the future."

Mr. Song: "Buy one."

She tugged at the clothes on her body: "The fabric of these clothes is not bad, it is quite skin-friendly."

Mr. Song: "Buy another one."

Aunt Xie Yuanlan has reached the age of becoming a grandmother, but she still maintains her charm: "Jin Yan, let me ask you, what is the meaning of pretending to be poor?"

"Su Nian said that she wanted to find a husband who matched her family and didn't need to be too rich." Huo Jinyan only had this reason.

"Are you afraid of scaring people away?" Xie Yuanlan teased him.

Huo Jinyan lost his mother when he was young, and his aunt Xie Yuanlan was just like his mother, and she spoke freely and freely.

Song Lianyi said bluntly: "So, cousin, you have fallen in love with me, right?"

The whole family pursed their lips and smiled.

"Of course not. It's just that we have similar views and have the same goal of marriage. She is a very suitable candidate."

Nothing but appropriateness.

Huo Jinyan knew very well that Su Nian had been hurt by his ex, and it was unlikely that he would have feelings for him in the future.

In fact, the whole family has already understood Huo Jinyan's views on emotions.

Everyone used to think that he really would never get married, but now that he is willing to get married, everyone no longer forces too much, and they naturally let him do the rest.

Mrs. Song smiled and said: "Since it is suitable, we will treat her as one of our own. This gift, when the time comes..."

Seeing the gift in grandma's hand, Huo Jinyan frowned, took out a big bag from the side and motioned for her to put it in.

Mrs. Song was holding a jade bracelet, and thinking of Huo Jinyan's plan, she had to throw it into the bag.

"Grandpa." Huo Jinyan tugged at his pocket.

Mr. Song put the brocade box in his hand into the bag.

Then my uncle and aunt put the diamond necklace gift box in.

The eldest cousin, the second cousin, and the eldest cousin each put a bank card in.

Song Lianyi put in a collection card for luxury brand finished high-end clothing.

Huo Jinyan put it away and threw it into the corner of the bus.

Mrs. Song said: "Then let's... give a small red envelope?"

Huo Jinyan checked the amount of the small red envelope, which was two thousand yuan, so he acquiesced.

Mrs. Song touched the hot red envelope and felt that it was a bit too hard to handle. The family had never given a red envelope of this size to a servant.
