Chapter 630 Three Boxes of Betrothal Gifts
Another month has passed in a blink of an eye.
On April 15, Lu Lingchen took a note to Tao Qianqian.
Tao Qianqian asked: "What is this?"
"My mother's WeChat account, please leave it to my aunt. Some things need to be discussed."
"Ah? What are you discussing? Is your mother coming to Beijing?"
"I don't know her itinerary."
Tao Qianqian was nervous and handed the note to her mother.
After another half month, she kept watching her parents' faces and found that the smile on her mother's face could not be concealed, so she felt relieved.
At 9 a.m. on May 1, some relatives came to the family, mainly from the Yan Zhen family, including Yan Zhen's mother Li Shuyun, brother Yan Fumin and three middle-aged women, all of Tao Qianqian's aunts.
Yan Zhen's father Yan Heng is a deputy G-level official, ranking very high, second only to the elders in the nursing home. He lives in a simple and rarely appears; Yan Zhen's brother Yan Fumin serves as deputy head of a certain department in Beijing, and is in the fourth level of administration; she also has two younger brothers working in other places because she is young and has a relatively low level.
Tao Qianqian asked her sister quietly: "What are these people here?"
Tao Jingjing gave her a blank look: "I don't know!"
By 9:30, Lin Qiuhong also came.
Tao Qianqian hurried forward and asked, "Master, why are you here?"
Lin Qiuhong smiled and said, "Silly child, today is your good day, and I'm going to get engaged to you!"
"Ah?" Tao Qianqian was shocked and covered her red lips with slender hands: "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"Why, you don't want to?"
"I..." Tao Qianqian's face turned red, she was happy and surprised. She didn't expect that things would come so quickly, thinking that it would take a few years.
Lin Qiuhong smiled and said, "It's just 'Wending', also known as "Naji" and "Nazheng", the man will send a betrothal gift to the woman and determine the relationship. As for when to get married, we will discuss it later."
"Oh." Tao Qianqian was happy and a little panicked, and hid in the second floor bedroom with brisk steps.
After a while, she heard the two aunts below yelling: "Here, come!"
"Hey, why are there only two people coming? The boy following behind is Lu Lingchen. I have seen him before. Who is the young woman walking in front?"
"No matter who it is, this is wrong! The Lu family is too arrogant! His son is engaged, and Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang, who are parents, should come! Our Yan family is also a well-known family! The Lu family is so bullying to do this!"
Hearing this, Tao Qianqian's heart hangs up, quickly gets down from the building, stands at the entrance of the stairs and looks at the gate.
She saw her boyfriend Lu Lingchen, standing behind a beautiful woman with empty hands. The woman looked less than thirty years old, with her fairy figure and jade-like eyebrows like smoke, white teeth and starry eyes, elegant and leisurely, just like Lu Lingchen's sister.
This beautiful woman was also empty-handed and didn't look like she was engaged at all, and she had a bit of a breakup.
Therefore, the Yan family and the others looked very bad-looking. Even Yan Zhen and Tao Shuguang felt heavy in their hearts, worried that the marriage would change.
Yan Zhen thought to himself: "My daughter Qianqian is born with beautiful beauty, and she doesn't have to marry into the Lu family! If your Lu family doesn't agree, why didn't you say it earlier? I told Mei Lingshang through WeChat two days ago, how can you change your mind? It doesn't matter if you change your mind, isn't this cheating my daughter Qianqian?" She was very afraid that her daughter would be unable to think about it, and something would happen next.
At this time, the beautiful woman who walked into the courtyard smiled and said, "I am Lingchen's mother Mei Lingshang. I came to visit the Tao family in Jing. I'm sorry, I should have come long ago."
Everyone was surprised: "Ah? Are you really the chess fairy Mei Lingchang? Why are you so young?"
"I can't believe it!"
Mei Lingshang is an amazing figure in the Go world. Her birth date can be found on the Internet. It should be 50 years old. But since she married into the Lu family, she gradually withdrew from the chess world and no longer participated in various competitions. She rarely left Kunlun Mountain and only played chess guidance for the chess academy through the Internet. When she played chess, she deliberately showed the appearance of a middle-aged man. In fact, she had already cultivated into a spiritual witch and had a very young appearance.
Lin Qiuhong took two steps forward and said, "Senior Sister, you are finally here."
Both of them are disciples of Jiang Qiuyun, Mei Lingshang is the senior sister and Lin Qiuhong is the junior sister, and the age difference is more than 10 years.
Mei Lingshang smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Qiuhong said, "It's not hard work, I'm very happy to be able to accept Qianqian as my disciple. This child has good qualifications and is a good match for Lingchen." She turned around and shouted, "Qianqian, come here quickly!"
Tao Qianqian looked nervous, her palms were sweating, and she walked over with her feet. She stood in front of Mei Lingshang and shouted softly: "Auntie."
Mei Lingshang's face was warm, like a spring breeze, and said, "Good boy, don't be nervous. Although you haven't seen me, I've seen you a long time ago."
"Auntie, how could you see me?"
"I came to Beijing two or three years ago and went to the Ancient Martial Arts Academy to see you training. I watched it for more than half an hour!"
"Ah? Really?"
Yan Zhen listened next to him, and finally let go of his heart, thinking: "God bless! The other party has no intention of remorse. As for not carrying a betrothal gift, although it does not match the etiquette, there is still a chance to make up for it. The Lu family is a super rich man. Can't he still get the betrothal gift? They just don't like to be bound by common gifts."
The old lady and two aunts were not satisfied, and looked at each other coldly, feeling that they had lost face to the Yan family.
At this time, Mei Lingshang waved her hand and suddenly three gift boxes fell in front of her. The gift boxes in the middle were relatively large, and the gift boxes on both sides were not large.
She first opened the gift box in the middle, which contained some silk and satin: "This is a clothes made of 'dragon silk', divided into four sets of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It is not only comfortable to wear, but also has a self-defense effect, and the strength exceeds the bulletproof vest."
When the Yan family saw it, they were a little moved, but they didn't think it was so precious. They were not warriors and did not know the value of the dragon and silkworm clothes.
Mei Lingshang opened the box on the left again, filled with jewelry, glass-colored bracelets, necklaces, red jade, topaz, black jade, and various rare gems, with bright colors and dazzling colors!
Seeing these jewelry, the women present opened their eyes widened!
The Yan family is also a wealthy family, not that they can’t afford jewelry, but since the country monopolized jadeite, there are few fine jades on the market, and it is even harder to see so many top-quality jewelry!
They whispered: "It looks so good! Just make this box of jewelry, which is more precious than Shilihongzhuang!"
"The Lu family is really a wealthy family, and they can find so many treasures!"
"Qianqian is so lucky!"
Lin Qiuhong stood beside him and smiled, thinking, "My father-in-law is the leading jewelry collector. The 'Qingfeng Jewelry Store' co-organized by my family and Lu Xinyuan is not only the largest jewelry store in China, but also holds shares in many foreign jewelry stores." She didn't know that Lu You was Lu Cheng, and she thought that these jewelry might come from the "Qingfeng Jewelry Store".
