Wang Yao was as happy as if he had won a 500 million grand prize. At this time, he was completely sure that the inheritance in his dream was real.
"I understand how you two felt at that time. I was just lucky."
Wang Yao is still relatively modest.
It turned out to be just luck... Xiao Ruoyu felt a little disappointed, but at the same time he felt that this was reasonable.
"Wang Yao, let's go!"
Wang Yao smiled at Xia Lan and the other two: "Take good care of the patient, my wife asked me to go back."
"Mr. Wang, please wait."
At this moment, Xia Lan caught up and pointed at Wang Yao's gift box and said, "I'm so sorry for breaking your jade pendant just now.
The jade pendant had been broken into several pieces after Wang Yao absorbed the spiritual energy.
Xiao Ruoyu couldn't help but frown. This was a birthday gift she bought for her mother.
Xia Lan took out a gift box from the side: "Mr. Wang, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it."
Wang Yao waved his hand: "No... no need."
He knew that the jade pendant was broken because he absorbed spiritual energy, and he didn't care about other people's affairs.
Xia Lan was very insistent: "Mr. Wang, you saved my grandfather, and I can't repay your kindness. But if you break your jade pendant and you don't want to accept it, my conscience will feel bad."
"Then I'll accept it."
Seeing her sincere look, Wang Yao reluctantly took the gift box.
Back in the car, Xiao Ruoyu still had a cold face.
In the past few years, Wang Yao has become accustomed to Xiao Ruoyu's cold attitude:
"Ruo Yu, do you believe me now? There is something wrong with your appearance. Why don't you let me..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Ruoyu snorted coldly: "I said a few words to you, but you're still out of breath?"
"You were lucky this time, otherwise you would have been in big trouble."
"You will never play those deceptive tricks you learned from the old blind man in front of me again. Otherwise, don't blame me for divorcing you immediately."
"Oh, but..."
Wang Yao was still a little unwilling.
But he was stopped by Xiao Ruoyu's cold gaze.
In her opinion, what Wang Yao and the old blind man learned were all deceptive tricks.
It's okay to fool those old men and women in the countryside, but it's just wishful thinking to fool city dwellers like them.
Wang Yao knew Xiao Ruoyu's character.
So I didn't mention the facial features again, but I just kept it in mind.
She must find an opportunity to resolve her bad luck.
Half an hour later, Xiao Ruoyu parked the car in the garage.
"Oops, I forgot to buy a gift for mom."
After getting off the car, Xiao Ruoyu's expression changed.
When she came, she only lectured Wang Yao and forgot about the real thing.
Wang Yao took out the gift box Xia Lan gave him and said, "This gift box looks quite exquisite, and it will be the same if you give it to mom."
Xiao Ruoyu said angrily: "Who knows what's inside."
Xiao Ruoyu knew his mother very well.
Somewhat snobbish.
Moreover, Wang Yao's performance in recent years has made his family look down upon him even more.
She spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a jade pendant for Wang Yao, just to make him perform well in front of his mother.
Now that the jade pendant was broken, Wang Yao will inevitably be scolded again.
However, considering that Wang Yao has been scolded a lot in recent years, he doesn't care this time.
The two entered the living room.
The living room was full of people, about a dozen people, and it was very lively.
These are all relatives of the Xiao family.
Eldest sister Xiao Feng and brother-in-law Zhang Ji were also present.
"Ruoyu, why did you come back?"
"Today is mom's birthday, so I didn't know she would come earlier."
Seeing Wang Yao and Xiao Ruoyu come in, Xiao Feng scolded them a few times.
Xiao Ruoyu said with some embarrassment: "There is a traffic jam on the road, I'm late."
"Just come, come and sit, I'll wait for you to come back and have dinner."
Mother-in-law Cao Jianping still felt sorry for her little daughter and asked her to sit down.
As for Wang Yao next to him, he is completely like a man of air.
Wang Yao didn't care either.
As soon as he sat down next to Xiao Ruoyu, his brother-in-law Zhang Ji next to him smiled and said:
"Wang Yao, today is mom's birthday, what gift have you prepared?"
"Yes, Wang Yao, don't fool mom with a broken peace charm like in previous years."
The eldest sister Xiao Feng also echoed.
"Don't talk about Wang Yao like that. He hasn't worked in these years. He just learned immortality from the old blind man. Besides the peace charm, what else can he give?" Zhang Ji said sarcastically.
Xiao Ruoyu's face was dull.
Xiao Ruoyu said to his mother Cao Jianping: "Mom, Wang Yao originally bought you a jade pendant, but accidentally broke it, so..."
Zhang Ji suddenly laughed and said:
"Ruo Yu, you don't need to cover his face. A good jade pendant costs at least tens of thousands of yuan. Can he afford it?"
"Who would believe that something worth tens of thousands of dollars was broken into pieces?"
The people next to me were also talking with their heads down.
Cao Jianping's face turned dark. Although she didn't expect Wang Yao to give any gifts, she felt very unhappy when she saw her daughter protecting Wang Yao.
Xiao Ruoyu's pretty face was a little stiff, no one believed her even if she knew the explanation.
He just complained secretly that Wang Yao was meddling in his own business, otherwise the jade pendant would not have been broken.
Facing the criticism and ridicule from everyone, Wang Yao said calmly: "Mom, I brought a gift, please accept it."
Everyone was stunned when they looked at the gift box in Wang Yao's hand.
Cao Jianping said expressionlessly:
"Put it there."
She didn't even think about opening the gift box.
Xiao Ruoyu's face also softened a bit, finally saving a little bit of face.
But Zhang Ji didn't expect to let Wang Yao go so easily.
"Wang Yao, open your gift box and show it to everyone. What gift have you prepared for Mom?"
Xiao Ruoyu's father, Xiao Cheng, saw that his youngest daughter looked bad, so he tried to smooth things over:
"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter what gift it is, it would be great if Yu and the others have this filial piety."
Xiao Feng said with an unhappy look on her face: "Dad, filial piety also has weight. My Zhang Ji bought a pair of jade bracelets for his mother, costing more than 100,000 yuan."
Many relatives at the table were shocked.
Cao Jianping also smiled with a straight face: "Oh, why did you buy such an expensive gift? It's a waste of money."
"Jianping, what are you saying? You are so lucky. Your eldest daughter and son-in-law are both filial and capable. I am so envious of you."
"Zhang Ji, quickly take out the jade bracelet and have a look. We have never seen such expensive jewelry before."
Zhang Ji had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and he immediately took out an exquisite gift box.
Then he handed the gift box to Wang Yao provocatively:
"Wang Yao, give it to mom to see."
Obviously, he wanted to take this opportunity to prevent Wang Yao from coming to Taiwan.
"What are you asking him to do? What if it is broken? I will do it myself."
Cao Jianping stood up and eagerly took the gift box. After opening it, there was a pair of green bracelets inside, which looked very pleasant.
"So beautiful!"
"Jianping, bring it on quickly and see how it works."
"Zhang Ji is really amazing. It's so beautiful to give such an expensive gift."
Everyone at the table praised him.
Cao Jianping couldn't wait to put on her wrist.
Zhang Ji said with a smile: "Wang Yao, go and open your gift box and see what gifts you brought, so that my mother will be happy too."
Xiao Feng sneered: "It's better not to read it, in case mom's good mood turns bad after watching it."
The relatives of the Xiao family also followed suit and belittled Wang Yao.
In front of such an expensive gift from Zhang Ji, no matter what gift was in Wang Yao's box, it couldn't compare.
Xiao Ruoyu kept his head down the whole time, and he was too embarrassed to see anyone.
At this time, Wang Yao just glanced at the bracelet on his mother-in-law's hand and said calmly:
"Brother-in-law, my gift may not be as valuable as yours, but it is sincere."
"It's not like you, brother-in-law, come here with a fake bracelet to make mom happy."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone at the dinner table changed.
