Scientific cultivation of immortals, hard work to become rich

Chapter 444

On the side, Mr. Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and seemed to be listening seriously, smiling, and nodding from time to time in agreement.

But the Xiao family who were familiar with the behavior of the old man were all terrified when they saw this.

It had been many years since anyone had dared to speak so loudly in front of the old Patriarch, beat them repeatedly, and innuendo warned them that the Xiao family had to abide by the law.

It has to be said that the girl Xiao Yuncheng brought back, aside from other things, is indeed quite courageous.

But Ye Zhen could be more courageous.

After taking the teacup that Xiao Yuncheng handed over casually, she lowered her head and took a sip. After slightly relieving her dry mouth from talking too much, Ye Zhen suddenly stood up annoyed.

She smiled at the old gentlemen sitting in the main seats above, and said with a bit of coquettishness and embarrassment: "Oh, it's all my fault. As soon as I hit it off with Grandpa, I just focused on talking and forgot to give it to the elders." The prepared meeting gift is brought out..."

meet and greet?
Hearing this, Xiao Yuncheng paused for a moment in his careless caressing the edge of the teacup, and looked at the little girl beside him with a suppressed smile.

Is this about to start eating big players?
On the side, Ye Zhen finished speaking with a look of regret, and without waiting for the old man sitting above to speak, she looked up at the coffin-faced old butler standing not far away: "Old man, may I ask where you put my luggage for me?" ?”

As he spoke, his eyes slowly scanned the hall.

There were quite a few people from the Xiao family today, and many of them were Xiao Yuncheng's elders. These elders accepted the gifts she carefully prepared to give, so can they not return a gift?

It is said that rich people want face, and they are all rich people, so you can't be angry with this shot, can you?So close this round...

Ye Zhen counted the heads quickly, and quickly estimated a number in her heart. She was very satisfied, and the smile on her face became warmer.

But the old butler couldn't help but twitched his lips when he heard her words—so those snakeskin pockets contained the meeting gift prepared by Miss Ye?
Thinking of the big snakeskin pockets worth five yuan at most, the old butler suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Mr. Xiao is old and smart, he is so shrewd, if he sees the old butler like that, he will know Ye Zhen's meeting gift, I am afraid it is not so easy to get.

Busily smiled and said: "Miss Ye, you are too polite, I am very happy if you can come to our house as a guest..."

Seeing this, the other Xiao family also echoed: "Yes, Miss Ye is a distinguished guest of our Xiao family, how can we ask for your gift?" Most importantly, they didn't prepare a meeting gift for Ye Zhen in advance. .

In fact, it stands to reason that Xiao Yuncheng brought his girlfriend home today, as elders, they should have prepared a meeting gift for Ye Zhen.

It's just that these people either didn't hesitate or looked down on Ye Zhen, so they deliberately ignored it.

But what I didn't expect was that they ignored it, but Ye Zhen came here.

The little girl was polite, knew about human affairs, came to see the elders, and brought gifts; in this way, they, the elders, had to show something.

Otherwise, if this matter gets out, those who don't know the rules will be ashamed, but they, the Xiao family, will be the ones.

The Xiao family prides themselves on being a big family, and they value status and face the most, so naturally they can't afford to lose this face.

Now that Ye Zhen brought it up face to face, no matter whether they accept Ye Zhen's gift or not, this meeting gift must be given.

There's definitely no way around this.

But giving a meeting gift is also a science.

If it is taken lightly, it will lose their face if they say it, but if they really want to give Ye Zhen a decent meeting gift...these people are unwilling in their hearts.

So in this rush, what to use as a meeting gift has become a difficult problem.

Fortunately, the female elders present said that no matter how bad it was, they had several kinds of jewelry on their bodies, and it would be fine to just give one of them to deal with.

——What can be worn by them is naturally a valuable and good thing, even if it is said, it is not ashamed.

But it's hard for others

Especially those old people sitting next to Mr. Xiao - in terms of seniority, they are the tallest among the people present, that is to say, gifts given by other people cannot go past them.

Herein lies a fatal problem.

They must give heavy gifts, otherwise the gifts given by their own children and grandchildren may be shameful.

The Xiao family members who were present felt aggrieved, but they still had to smile: "Miss Ye, you are too polite. How can I make you spend money when you come back to the door?"

Ye Zhen: "Yes, yes"

The Xiao family: "." How can there be such a gift for meeting?After accepting your gift, we will return the gift. What is the difference between buying and selling by force?
At this moment, the old butler with a coffin face, dragged two huge and heavy snakeskin bags, and walked in front of everyone with heavy steps.

This time, everyone's eyes fell on the two huge snakeskin pockets: "..."

It has to be said that these two very down-to-earth snakeskin pockets immediately calmed down the Xiao family present.

Ye Zhen got up and took her snakeskin bag from the old housekeeper, picked out the biggest box from it in a calm manner, and solemnly delivered it to the old man.

"Grandpa Xiao, I know that your Xiao family is a wealthy family. They are very rich. What good things have you never seen? There must be no shortage of gifts from me..."

As she said that, she looked back at Xiao Yuncheng again, then looked at the old man again, and said with sincerity: "But this is the first time I go home with Yuncheng, and all the people present are the relatives he cares about the most. Therefore, in terms of emotion and reason, I have no reason to come to the door empty-handed."

"It's said that courtesy is less important than affection. This is a small gift prepared by Yuncheng and I. I hope you don't think it too bad, grandpa."

After finishing speaking, she showed the old man a sweet and shy smile with a little embarrassment, and then opened the gift box in her hand that was so cheap that it didn't even have wrapping.

Everyone looked at the box in unison, and then... fell silent.

Xiao Yuncheng was also stunned for a moment, why did he feel that those bright plastic beads in the box looked so familiar?

——Isn't this the little girl Ye Xiaowan, who complained many times overtly and secretly, and was accidentally broken by him, and those handicraft raw materials cost a full ten yuan a box!
Probably because there were more beads destroyed by him at the beginning, so the bead chain in front of him must have been assembled?

This leads to the color of the entire bead string, which is called rich and colorful, and it is not enough to describe it as colorful.

Coupled with Ye Zhen's unique country aesthetics...and, in order to make these gifts look tall, she waxed them in layers...it can really brighten the eyes of blind people.

No, as soon as this gift appeared on the stage, it directly shocked all the Xiao family members present.

For a moment, the entire hall was silent, and a needle could be heard.

Xiao Yuncheng curled his lips and glanced at the little girl next to him.

He thought that the semi-finished products that he damaged had already been recycled, but unexpectedly... Xiao Yuncheng's gaze slowly moved to the two huge snakeskin pockets on the ground.

There was a moment of subtlety in the eyes.

Good use of waste.It also fits well... His future positioning for the entire Xiao family.

On this end, Ye Zhen smiled, but involuntarily stuffed the gift in Mr. Xiao's hand, and before he could refuse, she bent down and took out a large stack of boxes from the snakeskin pocket, one by one. Throw it to the Xiao family present.

The most amazing thing is that every time Ye Zhen sends a box, she will open the box, so that everyone present can see the gift in the box clearly.

——Without exception, they are all handicrafts that have been misfortune by Xiao Yuncheng.

Although these gifts are all assembled, the weight of the materials was handled by Ye Zhen with great precision.

For example, the string in his grandfather Xiao Qingyuan's hand is the most honest and weighty, consisting of 108 beads of different sizes and colors.

As for gifts for other people, it is estimated that they will decrease in descending order according to age.

Even Mr. Xiao, who was sitting above, was shocked by Ye Zhen's unrestrained way of giving gifts, and was speechless for a long time.

Half an hour later, Ye Zhen's eyes slowly swept across the people present, seeing the Xiao family holding a greeting gift, and after confirming that no one was missed, she nodded secretly satisfied.

"A little heart, I hope everyone hopes."

Dean Xiaoye looked at everyone present, with a shy face (expectation)——My gift has been sent out, what about your return gift?Your Xiao family is a big family, and you are all rich, so don't let me down.

The corners of the mouths of many people present could not help but twitch.

This is the gift from Ye Zhen.
But Ye Zhen doesn't care, but their Xiao family can't afford to lose face.

In the end, it was Mr. Xiao who was able to hold on. He closed the cheap gift box in his hand calmly, handed it to the old housekeeper, and said calmly, "Go to the study and take the meeting gift I prepared for Miss Ye." bring here."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of many Xiao family members present changed.

This is different from what was expected in advance, why did the old Patriarch...
But when Ye Zhen heard this, the joy on her face was immediately visible to the naked eye, and it became more eager. ,
She said to Mr. Xiao with hot enthusiasm: "Grandpa, look at you... how embarrassed you are, and asked you to bother to prepare a gift for me in advance..."

Then he turned his head to look at Xiao Yuncheng, and said angrily: "Yuncheng, didn't I tell you before, don't let grandpa bother to prepare any meeting ceremony... The gift is not important, the important thing is the heart..."

The Xiao family present: "..." That's not what you said on your expression.

Soon, the old butler, who had always had a coffin face since we met, walked downstairs holding a one-foot-square box in both hands.

When Ye Zhen saw the box, she was very satisfied - this box can hold a lot of things, but the box itself is made of high-quality purple gold black wood.

This purple gold black wood is a rare refining material, and in the eyes of knowledgeable people, it is truly a gram of gold.

Ye Zhen looked at the old man with a look of eagerness.

Let's not talk about the contents of this box, this box is worth at least nine figures!

Still priceless.

As expected of Mr. Xiao, he made a bold move!

Old man Xiao didn't care what he was thinking in his heart, he had a cheerful face, and he signaled the old housekeeper to deliver the box directly to Ye Zhen.

"It's useless to leave this thing in the hands of me, who is half buried in the ground, so I'll give it to Ms. Ye for fun."

The old man stared at Ye Zhen with a smile, his eyes slightly narrowed, revealing something meaningful.

At the same time, the old butler also opened the box.

Ye Zhen blinked her eyes when she saw the contents inside - it's not, it's not...

Before Ye Zhen could confirm the authenticity of the thing, the old housekeeper in the coffin had already closed the box, and handed it to Ye Zhen with a blank expression: "Miss Ye put it away."

This was the first time Ye Zhen heard the old housekeeper speak after coming to Xiao's house, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows slightly, the old housekeeper's voice... a bit strange.

However, the old man's meeting gift was probably a bit special. Before Ye Zhen could study it carefully, everyone in the Xiao family looked at each other, and soon someone said, "I also have a meeting gift here, and I want to give it to Miss Ye..."

Saying that, the old lady got up with a smile, took off the bracelet from her wrist, and put it on Ye Zhen's wrist without any explanation.

Immediately afterwards, the others, as if not to be outdone, took out greeting gifts one after another...

Villas, luxury cars, yachts, airplanes, stocks, jewelry... Ye Zhen never refuses anyone, and the joy on her face becomes hotter and more enthusiastic.

This Xiao family is indeed a rich and wealthy family.

Look, it's only the first day at the door, and she has gathered a lot of wool.

And these things are wealth that ordinary people can't earn in ten lifetimes, but in the eyes of a big family like the Xiao family, what is it?It's just a gift to send a little girl off.

Tsk, how else can I put it, she likes to eat rich people?
