Chapter 486 Does your family need another daughter?
Ming Nianxi looked at the shawl in her hand, her heart filled with worry: "Your sister is still so young. Buying such an expensive gift, won't it make her spend all her allowance?"
In her opinion, Lu Zhi was too young to need any special gifts.
But the child was thoughtful and carefully selected a gift, which warmed her heart and made her feel bad.
Lu Boyi was amused by her naivety: "You don't need to worry about her at all. She has at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, of her own money."
Ming Nianxi's eyes widened in disbelief: "One thousand? Eight hundred? How could she afford such an expensive shawl? No, no, she has to return it. It's too extravagant!"
Lu Boyi was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had misunderstood, and helplessly added, "The unit is ten thousand, ten million."
"Ten million?!" Ming Nianxi was so shocked she couldn't close her mouth, muttering to herself.
"The world of the rich is something ordinary people like us can't understand... Do you need another daughter? Would you mind having another one?"
Looking at her greedy little face, Lu Boyi's eyes were full of doting affection.
He reached out and playfully flicked her nose: "Our family doesn't lack daughters, but we do need a daughter-in-law. The treatment will be no worse than a daughter's. How about you consider it?"
Ming Nianxi paused for a moment, then scratched her head: "Okay."
At this moment, Lu Boyi took out the velvet box that had previously contained the bracelet, pulled out a bank card from it, and handed it to Ming Nianxi: "By the way, this is a red envelope from your mother for your visit."
Ming Nianxi looked at the bank card and quickly waved her hand, "No need, no need. That bracelet is already valuable enough. I can't take this."
"It's different," Lu Boyi explained with a smile.
"Gifts are gifts, and monetary gifts are monetary gifts. According to family custom, elders must give a red envelope to a younger person who visits for the first time."
Ming Nianxi took the bank card with some skepticism. Looking down, she saw the password written on the back, along with the words "one in a hundred".
Lu Boyi added from the side, "There should be one million and one hundred thousand inside, which means one in a hundred."
"One, one million and one hundred thousand?" Ming Nianxi was so startled that she let go of the bank card, which fell to the ground with a "thud".
The wealth came so suddenly that she was caught off guard and couldn't even believe it was real.
Before she could bend down to pick it up, Lu Boyi had already picked it up and handed it back to her.
Ming Nianxi took the bank card, her eyes glazed over, and murmured, "Lu Boyi, tell me honestly, do you have some kind of hidden illness?"
Lu Boyi was completely bewildered, his face full of question marks: "???"
Then Ming Nianxi said in a serious tone, "You're handsome, from a wealthy family, and so good to me. You even gave me so many expensive things."
"You're perfectly normal. I wouldn't feel at ease taking this money. If you tell me the truth, I can accept it."
Lu Boyi was both amused and annoyed. He reached out and gently pinched her cheek, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Have you never eaten fine food before? You're just making a fuss over nothing!"
Ming Nianxi nodded seriously: "Really not! The point is that it's too 'detailed,' it doesn't seem real at all. Why don't you pinch me and let me see if I'm dreaming?"
Helpless, Lu Boyi could only gently pinch her cheek—he didn't actually use much force, but Ming Nianxi still let out an exaggerated cry.
"ah--"
Ming Nianxi touched the spot where she had been pinched, her eyes instantly lighting up: "It's real! It's actually true! That's great, I've actually managed to get on someone's good side!"
She cheered inwardly: I won't have to work like a beast of burden anymore, this is practically a life experience!
Looking at her greedy little face, Lu Boyi's eyes were practically overflowing with doting affection.
She whispered seductively, "I can not only let you hug my legs, but also my waist. Want to try?"
Ming Nianxi's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously asked, "Really?"
"You'll see once you try it," Lu Boyi said with a smile, opening his arms wide.
Ming Nianxi hesitated for a moment, then reached out to hug his waist, secretly wondering: I wonder how it feels?
But before her hand could even touch Lu Boyi's waist, he pulled her into his arms.
Lu Boyi held her tightly, his chin resting on the top of her head.
His tone was serious: "Xixi, you've already met all my family members, when can I meet your parents?"
Ming Nianxi leaned against him, listening to his earnest and solemn tone.
Feeling a warmth in her heart, she said softly, "After I get back, I'll have a good talk with my parents first. Once they agree, I'll take you to meet them."
"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Lu Boyi tightened his arms, holding her even closer.
Afterwards, Lu Boyi took Ming Nianxi on a tour of the room, patiently explaining to her how to use the various items in the bathroom.
Ming Nianxi looked at the neatly folded silk pajamas beside the bed, and the high-end Muxi skincare products on the dressing table.
Even toiletries were provided, which filled me with amazement and gratitude.
—It turns out that wealthy families aren't as difficult to get along with as legend has it. Their sincerity and thoughtfulness completely put her at ease.
Meanwhile, in the main hall, after the two young men left, everyone began to discuss Ming Nianxi.
Shen Li spoke first, her tone full of satisfaction: "This young lady is not bad. Although her family background is ordinary, it doesn't matter whether her family background is good or bad. Good character is the key."
Mother Shen nodded in agreement, adding, "Yes, he has sound values, good character, and seems so innocent and sensible. Only a child like that is worthy of our Boyi."
Shen Li smiled and nodded: "She is indeed very likable, lively and polite, and she is also an alumnus of our school. The more I look at her, the more I like her."
Lu Zhi couldn't hide her smile as she excitedly said, "I also think she's wonderful. This sister-in-law is both cute and gentle; we're sure we'll get along well in the future!"
That evening, Ming Nianxi carried the small gifts she had brought and, together with Lu Boyi, went to each courtyard to deliver the gifts.
Everyone smiled as they received their gifts.
—The value of a gift doesn't lie in its price, but in Ming Nianxi's sentiment. It's enough that she carefully selects each gift.
The key point is that they didn't go out; they just brought gifts, which means they had prepared them in Shenzhen.
I have a heart.
Two gifts were missing; there were none for my maternal grandparents.
Lu Boyi smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, we'll buy two more suitable gifts tomorrow and visit Grandma and Grandpa."
Lu Zhi's eyes lit up with joy as she looked at the popular figurine Ming Nianxi had given her.
—Although she could buy this figurine herself, it was specially chosen for her by Ming Nianxi, so it has a different meaning.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Lu Zhi hugged the figurine and smiled brightly.
Ming Nianxi blushed slightly and said shyly, "We're not married yet, Xiaozhi. You can still call me sister. You can call me sister-in-law after we get married."
Seeing her shy expression, Lu Zhi smiled and nodded, "Okay, Sister Xixi!"
The next morning, Ming Nianxi got up early and went to have breakfast with Lu Zhi, without feeling any awkwardness.
In the morning, Lu Boyi, Ming Nianxi, Lu Boyan, and Lu Zhi, four young people, went shopping and sightseeing in the city of Beijing.
In the afternoon, they went to the Shen family's house together, and Shen Li and the elders arrived later.
