Chapter 684: Chapter 684: This Is Very Dissatisfying to Chapter 684: Chapter 684: This Is Very Dissatisfying to Old Master Yuan smiled and said, “All right, then we’ll go ahead first. Old Yang, you and your wife should co visit when you have ti.”
Before leaving, Old Master Yuan slipped a small embroidered purse to Luo Qiao in private, “Don’t refuse, this is a betrothal gift from Grandpa. Wealth shouldn’t be flaunted, just keep it to yourself.”
Luo Qiao found it hard to decline and thus accepted it, whispering, “Thank you, Grandpa.”
Having said that, Old Master Yuan got into the car, and Luo Qiao directly stashed the item into her space.
Yuan Jiahui honked the horn before finally driving off. Tiong Shulan, seeing her father-in-law’s car leave, called Luo Qiao over and pulled out a box from her bag, “This is the engagent gift from Mom, I didn’t get a chance to give it to you inside just now.”
Luo Qiao felt sowhat embarrassed, having already accepted Grandpa Yuan’s gift, and now her godmother was giving her another, so she said, “Mom, it’s just an engagent, you can give this when I get married.”
Tiong Shulan instantly burst into laughter, “I’ve never seen anyone as silly as you, refusing a gift. Don’t worry, an engagent and a wedding are two different matters, this is your engagent congratulatory gift from Mom.”
Luo Qiao had to take it, “Thank you, Mom.”
After seeing off the Yuan family, Luo Qiao then drove her car from behind the house, with her brothers’ help loading the waterlons for the master into the trunk.
Luo Qiao said to her family, “You all rest a bit, I’m going to deliver these to my master and madam first.”
As the car left, Feng Shumin brought out a box, “Qiaoqiao, this is the engagent gift your master and I have prepared for you and Yichen. It wasn’t convenient to take it out in front of so many people, keep it for yourself later.”
While driving, Luo Qiao asked, “Godmother, is it customary to give gifts for an engagent too?”
Feng Shumin laughed, “It’s all up to one’s own feelings, oh right, where did you get this car from?”
Luo Qiao glanced at the rearview mirror, preparing to turn, “I borrowed it from a friend, thought it’d be more convenient for today’s errands.”
After dropping the couple off at ho, “Master, should I put the waterlon in the kitchen or the storage room?”
Yang Jiancheng pondered for a mont, “Put it in the storage room. Leave one out; when the folks co over for chess later, we can cut it open and have a taste.”
Feng Shumin chuckled, “Qiaoqiao, give the young man who delivers the vegetables a call, tell them not to send any waterlons these next few days, we can’t eat that much.”
Luo Qiao ca out of the storage room, “Since you’re on holiday and at ho, there’s always soone coming over for chess, we can cut it open and everyone can eat it together.”
The delivery truck from Yipin Fruit and Vegetables always made a stop here every day, without fail.
After storing everything and washing her hands, “Master, Madam, I’ll be leaving now.”
Rembering sothing, she dashed out and ca back holding a bag of candies, “Master, Madam, could you help distribute these candies to our neighbors, so everyone can enjoy a sweet treat?”
Feng Shumin took the candies, “You’re quite the clever one.”
She knew well what Luo Qiao ant; many neighbors had their eyes set on Luo Qiao, so inquiring about her situation both overtly and covertly.
Even though they made it clear that Luo Qiao was taken, so just couldn’t let go. Now that the engagent was set, once these candies were given out, anyone with proper principles would surely stop bringing it up.
Seeing there were no further issues, Luo Qiao said, “Master, Madam, in a few days I’ll be taking a long trip, please take good care of yourselves.”
The couple was already used to Luo Qiao taking long trips now and then. Her adeptness gave them peace of mind. Yang Jiancheng said, “Co back early, your admission notice should arrive in these few days.”
Luo Qiao smiled, “Got it, Master.”
She took the route to Jinyuan Garden and just as she parked, she saw Han Yuchen standing at the gate, “Brother Han, are you going out?”
Han Yuchen had not expected to run into Luo Qiao at the gate while seeing off a friend, and joked, “Yo, Luo Qiao, still rember which way Jinyuan’s gate opens?”
Luo Qiao laughed heartily, “That sounds like you’re not too happy with .”
With his joke done, Han Yuchen said, “You’re already here at the gate, won’t you co in for a sit?”
Luo Qiao handed over the car keys, “Not today, my family is waiting at ho. Here, you keep the car keys.”
Han Yuchen didn’t accept the keys, “Are you done with your errands? We’re not in a rush to use it.”
