Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

Chapter 39 Gift

The next day, the two families had breakfast together. Afterwards, everyone left Yunshe one after another and returned to their original urban life. Grandpa and grandma, grandpa and grandma held Xu Zhihui's hands and asked her to visit them sometime.

Xu Zhihui felt that it was time to go back.

However, Mrs. He, Sun Xiaofei, asked her to wait until the afternoon before leaving, saying that she had a gift for her and had asked He Zhizun to go home and get it early this morning.

Xu Zhihui was quite surprised. She had never thought about gifts.

In the afternoon, she and Lan Ying talked about gifts.

Lan Ying smiled slightly. She knew the significance of the gift. "The gift was prepared by Father He. He prepared one for each of his two daughters-in-law before the accident. My share was given to me early in the morning, and yours can't wait to be given to you."

When Xu Zhihui heard that the gift was prepared for her daughter-in-law, she was at a loss for words and shook her head in embarrassment, "I... am not a daughter-in-law yet, so I am not qualified to accept it. I can't accept it, I can't accept it."

"Our mother has already treated you as her daughter-in-law," Lan Ying smiled and took her hand, "Don't refuse. You can't refuse."

"Ah, this..."

Lan Ying was talking about "our mother", which agreed with Mrs. He's position.

Xu Zhihui felt that things were moving too fast. She had just started a relationship, and as soon as she stepped onto the He family's boat, she was pulled on board by the boatman against her will. It was very difficult for her to get off.

Helpless, Xu Zhihui asked with curiosity: "Sister-in-law, what is the gift for you?"

"It's a big gem, crystal clear, and it can glow in the dark. I've never seen anything so beautiful." Lan Ying described it excitedly, "It's only a little smaller than a ping-pong ball. It's absolutely priceless."

"I think your gift is about the same size." Lan Ying said with a smile.

"Oh, if it's so precious, then I absolutely cannot accept it."

After Lan Ying said this, Xu Zhihui felt very embarrassed. She felt guilty and uneasy. If it was an ordinary gold or jade item, even if the price was a little expensive, she could still accept it reluctantly. But how could she have the face to accept such a priceless treasure?

"I understand." Lan Ying smiled and changed the subject, "That's what I thought at the time. Look, I can't accept it either."

In other words, Lan Ying had the same confusion at the beginning. Hearing this, Xu Zhihui accepted it silently.

Although she was mentally prepared for the preciousness of the gift, she was still surprised when Sun Xiaofei handed it to her.

The gift was placed in a very beautiful little wooden box, which felt very heavy to the touch, but she didn't know what material it was made of.

As soon as she opened the box, the golden light inside leaked out. In the box lay a palm-long, golden, bird-like object. She looked carefully and it seemed to be a phoenix bird. This was what she remembered it to look like.

Xu Zhihui took it in her hand, feeling it was a little heavy, and looked at it again and again.

It looks like a hairpin, but not quite, because it has no head or tail. Or, the hairpin and the phoenix are already one, anyway, it is a one-piece phoenix. However, this phoenix is ​​too delicate and beautiful, it looks like it has a thousand postures and is ready to spread its wings and fly at any time, the lines and contours are very delicate, and the details are extremely realistic.

"It's so beautiful," Xu Zhihui praised sincerely with shining eyes, but she shook her head again and again to refuse, "Aunt, this hairpin is too valuable, I can't accept it."

"Zhihui, accept it, accept it."

Sun Xiaofei's kind face carries a hint of stubborn persistence.

"This is what his father prepared for his two daughters-in-law. Yingying gets one, and you get one too. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to give it away, and his father's kindness will be wasted."

"I, I'm not yet." Xu Zhihui murmured, and her face turned red all of a sudden.

"It doesn't matter. I think you're a good fit, so there's no harm in accepting it."

Sun Xiaofei insisted on pushing the box to her.

"Speaking of which, this hairpin is not something that belongs to the He family. It is not an heirloom. His father got it by accident, so he planned to leave it to his daughter-in-law. Including Yingying's pearl, it is not something that belongs to the He family either."

"If you don't accept it, I will be unhappy and there will be a thorn in my heart."

This sentence was too serious. Xu Zhihui sighed secretly. She couldn't argue with Mrs. He who had just recovered from her illness, right? After pushing it back and forth for a while, she reluctantly accepted it.

Sun Xiaofei asked her to try it on.

At first, she had no idea where to start and couldn't find the tip of the hairpin. She simply gave up and inserted the phoenix's tail into her hair. It went unexpectedly smoothly and silkily. She pushed it into her hair as if it had gone in by itself, and it wasn't too heavy.

"It looks very nice and suits you very well."

Sun Xiaofei was very happy that the hairpin had finally found the right person to give it to.

Xu Zhihui looked at herself in the mirror. It was really beautiful and very eye-catching. It was incomparable to any other jewelry or jade.

"Thank you, aunt."

Sun Xiaofei said earnestly: "My husband said that besides being a hairpin, it is also a talisman. When you encounter any difficulties, carry it with you. It is better to believe it than not to believe it."

"Yeah, remember."

Xu Zhihui carefully put the hairpin back into the wooden box, took out the mobile phone from her bag, and barely stuffed the wooden box into her bag.

Sun Xiaofei breathed a sigh of relief, as if a burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She felt refreshed. She took Xu Zhihui's hand and patted the back of her hand lovingly. "You two can go back. You have been here for several days, and you have to go back to the company to handle some business. I will invite you to my house after I get home."

"Ah."

At around 3 o'clock, Xu Zhihui said goodbye to Mrs. He, Lan Ying, and her elder brother He Zhizun. The driver, Old Wu, drove the same Maybach business car, and she and He Zhijing sat in the back seat.

"Old Wu, thank you for your help." Xu Zhihui said sweetly to Old Wu.

"It's no trouble. You're welcome, Miss Xu." Old Wu smiled.

The Maybach business car started and went back along the same route.

He Zhijing smiled mischievously and asked, "Xiao Huizi, what did my mother give you?"

"Just, just one thing." Xu Zhihui was a little shy, patting her bulging shoulder bag, "Hey, I won't tell you."

"I know it even if you don't tell me." He Zhijing leaned close to her ear and said in a naughty tone, "Is it a gift for my daughter-in-law? Xiao Huizi, if you accept it, you will be the daughter-in-law of my He family."

"You wish." Xu Zhihui glared at him and moved aside.

???

Angry?

Realizing that he had taken advantage of her, she got angry and He Zhijing felt panicked.

After a while, He Zhijing patted his shoulder and said flatteringly: "Xiao Huizi, do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"Aren't you afraid of shoulder pain?" Xu Zhihui turned to look at him.

"Not afraid."

"But it's too hard."

"Xiao Huizi, you are too picky."

"Okay." Xu Zhihui smiled, "Then I'll do it reluctantly."

"Lower..."
