Chapter 1572: Chapter 1576: As long as you’re happy
Ye Xingbei: “… As long as you’re happy!”
Her silly Second Brother has probably gotten used to the abuse, become numb, and doesn’t even feel anything, right?
Xie Yunlin chuckled, looked at Gu Junzhu and said: “Fifth Brother, we can’t delay things with the Si Family. Xiao Fei is feeling better now. If the fever subsides tomorrow, I need you to accompany me and Xiao Fei to the Si Family’s place to settle the engagement. I’ll prepare the betrothal gifts tonight.”
The only comforting aspect of this situation for Xie Yunlin was that Xie Jinfei and Si Duomian confirmed their relationship.
He was very pleased with Si Duomian.
Even if he deliberately arranged a date for Xie Jinfei, he wouldn’t find anyone better than Si Duomian.
From family background to Si Duomian’s character, he was very satisfied with everything.
Gu Junzhu nodded: “Alright, no problem.”
Ye Xingbei said enthusiastically: “Big Brother, I prepared a lot of jewelry for Mianmian!”
Xie Yunlin smiled and shook his head, “How can we use your jewelry? Keep your jewelry for the dowry of my niece.”
“No need,” Ye Xingbei said, “I don’t even know where my daughter is now, we can slowly collect things for her. Second Brother is in urgent need now, Mianmian has made such a big sacrifice for my Second Brother, we must give her some nice things to show the Si Family our sincerity. You only have one night, where can you find so many good things?”
Xie Yunlin was speechless.
Indeed, time is tight; while he has the money, good jewelry can’t be bought just because you want it. Many precious pieces are rare finds.
“That’s settled then,” Ye Xingbei said, leaving no room for argument, “I’ve already prepared everything, Mianmian will definitely like it! I’ll go get it for you to see!”
Ye Xingbei got up and went upstairs, returning shortly with a rosewood box.
She opened the rosewood box and displayed its contents to Xie Yunlin and Xie Jinfei.
The rosewood box had three layers, each containing a set of jewelry.
The top layer held diamonds, the middle had emeralds, and the bottom contained red agate. Each set was especially beautiful, sparkling under the light, clearly treasures.
Xie Yunlin frowned slightly: “Beibei, such nice jewelry, keep it for yourself. I’ll ask my friends to buy a few pieces tonight, and we can give replacements to Si Duomian at the wedding.”
His sister was at the age where she loved beautiful things. Which young girl would think she had too much jewelry?
This jewelry was so beautiful, surely his sister cherished it deeply; he couldn’t bear for her to give it away.
Even if the recipient was Xie Jinfei’s fiancée.
“No need, Big Brother, I have plenty!” Ye Xingbei counted on her fingers: “Look, Mom left me some, you and Second Brother buy me jewelry whenever you find something nice, and Gu Junzhu has also given me many, many pieces. I really don’t lack jewelry!”
“You should accept Beibei’s gesture,” Gu Junzhu tilted his head to look at Ye Xingbei and said: “The day we returned from the Si Family, she spent ages picking out these three sets, even the rosewood box was specially chosen.”
Xie Yunlin noticed the indulgent and proud look Gu Junzhu gave his sister, and somehow felt overshadowed by their show of affection.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded, “Alright, we’ll accept it then.”
In a little while, his sister would be marrying Gu Junzhu, so during this time, he could gather information and buy her several more sets of jewelry.
Seeing Xie Yunlin agree, Ye Xingbei was delighted, carefully closed the rosewood box, and set it aside.
