Chapter 4008 4010 [Etiquette is less important than affection]
"Huang Shu, where is your gift? Have you forgotten it?" Feng Xuejiao took out the gift, but when she saw that Huang Shu did not take out the gift, she couldn't help but asked in confusion.
"I haven't forgotten, but I want to save it until next year and give it away together." Huang Shu explained, then looked at Xiang Nan, "Qin Li, is that okay?"
“Okay.” Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.
"What gift? We have to wait for another year?" Feng Xuejiao asked curiously after hearing this, "Are you going to give Qin Li a passbook?"
“Oh, no, we can’t say it yet.” Huang Shu waved her hands and smiled.
"The more you don't tell me, the more curious I will be. Just tell me secretly." Feng Xuejiao pestered Huang Shu.
“I really can’t say.” Huang Shu waved her hands and smiled.
“Well, don’t ask, you’ll know next year.” Wang Di saw this and said with a smile, “Huang Shu, will my gift also have to wait for a year?”
"That's not true, I have prepared your gift." Huang Shu smiled, and then handed a box to Wang Di, "Wang Di, this gift is what I prepared for you."
"What? Let me take a look." Feng Xuejiao said nervously.
"What are you looking at? Don't move." Wang Di happily took the gift and opened it. He was immediately delighted when he saw it was a pen.
“Wang Di, I wish your articles will get better and better.” Huang Shu said with a smile.
"Thank you, I like it very much." Wang Di said with a grin, feeling as if he had drunk honey.
“Wang Di, aren’t you curious, what gift should I give you?” Feng Xuejiao pouted upon seeing this.
"As long as you don't bite anyone, take it out." Wang Di said with a smile.
Feng Xuejiao rolled her eyes at him, then took out a small square box from her schoolbag and handed it to Wang Di, "I carefully selected this gift and wrapped it myself."
“The wrapping is so exquisite.” Huang Shu praised with a smile.
Wang Di opened the box and saw a chain with a half-heart-shaped pendant on it, engraved with the word "boy" and the symbol "" that symbolizes men.
“What kind of thing is this? It’s made of scrap metal.” Wang Di said doubtfully.
“You are stupid, can’t you see? This is not a necklace.” Feng Xuejiao said angrily.
“No boy wears a necklace, it’s too girly, I don’t want it.” Upon hearing this, Wang Di threw the necklace on the table.
“Wang Di, this is called a puzzle necklace. It is sold in pairs, and the two can be put together. It is very popular now.” Huang Shu explained.
“Puzzle necklace, where is the other one?” Wang Di asked doubtfully.
"Are you stupid?" Xiang Nan curled his lips and gestured to Feng Xuejiao.
“Then I don’t want it, so you can retreat.” Wang Di pushed the necklace to Feng Xuejiao and said.
"No, just put it on." Feng Xuejiao said quickly, "Huang Shu, look at him~"
"Wang Di, just put it on. This necklace was carefully chosen by Jiaojiao." Huang Shu also advised.
“Feng Xuejiao, take the initiative and put it on for him.” Xiang Nan also said.
Feng Xuejiao immediately stood up, picked up the necklace, and put it on Wang Di's neck.
"Wang Di, if you really don't want it, just take it off and throw it away." Feng Xuejiao couldn't help but turned around angrily when she saw that he was dissatisfied.
“I’m still angry, okay, okay, I can’t do it anymore.” Seeing her say this, Wang Di had no choice but to nod. “That’s pretty much it.” Feng Xuejiao finally broke through tears and smiled.
…
“Wang Di, I’ll give you a gift too.” Xiang Nan said and took out a gift box.
Wang Di took it and opened it, and his eyes suddenly lit up. It was a Jinye Walkman. Wang Di was very happy to get this gift.
He originally liked listening to music, but a cheap Walkman costs forty or fifty, and an expensive one costs one or two thousand. After his parents were laid off, their income has been unstable, so he can't afford it even if he wants to, so he can only take advantage of Feng Xuejiao.
Now the Walkman Xiang Nan gave him was not a famous brand, but it solved his urgent need, so he was naturally very happy.
“Oh, the gift you gave me is so good that I can’t even get rid of my gift.” He was happy for a while, then frowned and said.
“It doesn’t matter, sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away is a light gift but a heavy heart. When we send gifts to each other, it’s about the intention, not the price.” Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"Yes, the most important thing in giving a gift is your intention." Feng Xuejiao nodded and said, "Bring it out, no one will dislike it."
"Yes, the intention is the most important, and the price is not important. As long as it is a carefully prepared gift, it must be the most valuable." Huang Shu also smiled.
Wang Di just took out the gift he had prepared, and saw that the gift was quite big, as big as a grapefruit.
Xiang Nan opened the gift box and saw a cactus inside.
“Cactus?” Feng Xuejiao said in surprise. She didn’t expect Wang Di to give Xiang Nan this gift.
"The flower language of the cactus is perseverance. I hope Qin Li is as perseverant as the cactus and can persevere no matter how bad the environment is." Wang Di explained, "Furthermore, another layer of the flower language of the cactus is 'protection'. ', I hope I can be like this cactus, guarding Qin Li's side and protecting the friendship between us."
"Wang Di, you said it very well." Huang Shu applauded after hearing this.
“Yes, Wang Di, this is the most thoughtful gift.” Feng Xuejiao said with admiration.
“Thank you, Wang Di, I like this gift too.” Xiang Nan smiled.
…
After dinner, Xiang Nan and Wang Di went boating in People's Park together and spent a leisurely afternoon.
After returning home in the evening, Qin Baishun personally cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for his grandson.
"Grandson, grandpa is sorry for you. He didn't teach your father well, so you lost your mother when you were a child, and now you don't have your father either." He said to Xiang Nan, "Fortunately, you are pretty good at it. You were admitted to university and went to school." He watched TV and gained face for our old Qin family.
From today you are eighteen years old and you are an adult. You must be a good person in the future. Never imitate your father. Do you remember this? "
"I remember, grandpa." Xiang Nan nodded.
“That’s fine, let’s eat noodles.” Qin Baishun nodded.
Xiang Nan immediately ate the noodles with a loud groan. Just then, he heard the phone ringing.
Xiang Nan put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and walked over, picked up the phone and said, "Hello, hello~"
"Is this Qin Li? I'm Zhang Xiafeng. Don't speak yet. Listen to me first." A middle-aged woman's voice said on the other side of the phone.
Xiang Nan was stunned and realized that Zhang Xiafeng was Qin Li's aunt, who was previously married to Qin Dazhi's brother Qin Dagang. However, Qin Dagang passed away more than ten years ago, so Zhang Xiafeng had remarried long ago and lost contact with the Qin family.
"Your father told me before he left that he hid 100,000 yuan in the shack he was transferred to before." Zhang Xiafeng said again, "I'll tell you where the address is. You can take it out yourself. It will be used for future living and tuition." Come on, don’t tell your grandpa, he’s stubborn and won’t spend the money.”
With that said, Zhang Xiafeng told Xiang Nan the address and then hung up the phone.
