The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

Chapter 1251 Returning Home

He Dantong read Shen Xuening's reply: "I understand, I'll give it a try."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "I introduced you, and I'll cover all after-sales service."

He Dantong couldn't help but laugh: "No problem."

Shen Xuening looked up at Zhuo Jinghao and said, "Dantong is fine now. Talk to her nicely, and remember, no matter how things develop between you two in the future, never hurt her."

Zhuo Jinghao assured him, "I know, don't worry."

Shen Xuening nodded: "A man should be responsible and have a sense of duty. You can learn from Zizhou in this regard. However, you two are childhood friends, so your personalities and character should be similar. I am quite at ease with you."

Lin Yanfei put his arm around Zhuo Jinghao's shoulder: "Jinghao, we've gone to great lengths to help you find a partner, so you have to live up to our expectations."

Zhuo Jinghao took a sip of his drink: "You talk like you're my elder. Alright, alright, just mind your own business. Now that Zizhou and Xuening are married, it's your turn to marry Manjun."

Lin Yanfei chuckled, his eyes involuntarily glancing towards Zhou Manjun: "Marriage isn't a decision I made alone; it also depends on her."

Zhou Manjun ignored Lin Yanfei's words, pretending not to hear them; she felt a little embarrassed.

Shen Xuening came to Zhou Manjun's rescue: "Alright, let them handle such an important matter privately, and let us know the results later."

Zhang Qianwen also said, "That's right, how can such a sweet moment happen in front of all of us? Just wait and see, it will definitely have a good outcome."

Zhuo Jinghao laughed and said, "I was being presumptuous. You can discuss it slowly. Just give me some extra wedding candy when the time comes."

Lin Yanfei said, "That's for sure, it's more than what Zizhou gave you."

Qin Zizhou's voice came through: "I also look forward to your good news."

Lin Yanfei answered very loudly, "Okay."

"You guys chat, I'll go help Zizhou." After saying that, Shen Xuening went to the kitchen.

"You don't need to help. Go play with them, it'll be over soon." Qin Zizhou felt sorry for Shen Xuening, who had been busy all day, and didn't want her to do any more work.

“I’m full of energy, let me work with you.” Shen Xuening still really enjoyed working with Qin Zizhou.

Seeing Shen Xuening's gentle smile, Qin Zizhou did not refuse: "Then you wash and cut the fruit, fruit is a must after a meal."

"Okay." Shen Xuening went to get the fruit. "Where did you buy this fruit?"

"You sent it to me, but I haven't had time to eat it," Qin Zizhou said.

"It's been so long, why haven't you eaten? You should eat a piece of fruit every day." Shen Xuening said as she washed a grape and fed it to Qin Zizhou.

Qin Zizhou happily ate the grapes: "You should feed me sweeter ones."

Shen Xuening chuckled, took one for herself, and deliberately said, "They're the same, where's the sweeter one?"

Qin Zizhou firmly emphasized, "It has to be even sweeter."

"Have another one." Shen Xuening fed Qin Zizhou another fruit. "You have to eat fruit every day from now on, remember?"

Qin Zizhou replied in a serious tone, "I'll remember that. I still have to listen to my wife."

Shen Xuening couldn't help but smile: "When will the food be ready?"

"The food is ready to be served." Qin Zizhou looked at the rice in the pot, which had already switched to the keep-warm setting. "You take the cold dishes, and I'll take the hot dishes. Don't burn your hands."

Shen Xuening obediently picked up the cold preserved egg and cold beef salad: "I'm not that delicate. I cook at home sometimes. I'll let you try my cooking another day."

Qin Zizhou chimed in, "Then I'm still looking forward to it."

Shen Xuening thought for a moment and then made up her mind: "Let's not reschedule for another day, let's do it tomorrow. Tomorrow is the weekend, the company is closed, I'll go buy groceries and cook for you."

Seeing that Shen Xuening was serious, Qin Zizhou quickly said, "Okay, let's go to the supermarket to buy groceries together tomorrow."

Shen Xuening gave Qin Zizhou a smile: "I definitely won't let you down."

Seeing them bring out the dishes, the others got up to help, and soon the table was full of dishes, which were exquisite and beautiful, just like Qin Zizhou, almost perfect.

"It's been so long since I've had Zizhou's cooking, I really miss it." Lin Yanfei is always good at livening up the atmosphere, and when he speaks, the air feels warmer.

Qin Zizhou replied, "Then you have to finish all these dishes today."

Lin Yanfei laughed and said, "I might not finish eating, but I'll definitely try my best. Otherwise, I don't know how long it will be before I can get another free meal."

Everyone sat around the table, and Qin Zizhou went to get a bottle of Duqing wine, pouring a glass for each person: "Come on, let's have a drink together."

"Cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.

Shen Xuening said, "You should eat more. We'll need your help to pick out gifts for us later. There are a lot of gifts, so it might take a long time to open them."

Zhang Qianwen said nonchalantly, "We're already prepared, and we don't have to work tomorrow, so it's okay if we demolish it all night."

Shen Xuening said, "I'm relieved to hear that."

We chatted and laughed as we finished our meal. Then we cleaned up the dishes and tables together, and after that, we went to the room where we kept the gifts.

There were so many gifts that they filled two rooms completely, leaving only a small passageway. If you weren't careful, you might trip and fall.

Standing at the doorway and looking around, Zhang Qianwen said, "How about you men take one room and we take another, and we'll see who finishes dismantling first?"

Lin Yanfei was the first to respond: "Okay, I'll take the bet."

No one else objected, so the two groups each went to a room and started unwrapping their gifts.

Why open the gifts? First, you need to write them down so you can reciprocate when the other person treats you to a meal. Second, if the gifts are all in the gift box, you won't know what's inside, which is definitely not good.

Unpack the gifts, sort them, and put them away. Use what you can and keep what you can. Otherwise, they'll just be left messy in the room, which isn't Shen Xuening and Qin Zizhou's style.

Shen Xuening sat down in a chair and casually picked up a gift.

The gift box had the names of the items and the giver on it. Shen Xuening wrote down the information first, and then opened the gift box.

This is a purple gemstone, sparkling brilliantly under the light. It's clearly no ordinary gem. Shen Xuening took the purple gemstone in her hand and examined it. As expected of a relative of the Qin family, their gift is truly extravagant.

Zhang Qianwen looked over, her eyes reflecting the brilliance of the purple gemstone, and asked curiously, "Who gave this to you?"

Shen Xuening shook her head: "I don't know them, but it's definitely not an ordinary relationship."

Zhou Manjun also looked over: "This gem is probably worth more than a million. The relationship must be very special to be able to give such a gift."

Shen Xuening put the gemstone into a large box, and then took it to the collection room: "It's very beautiful. Let's keep it for now, and we can have it made into jewelry if needed in the future."

"Oh, right, Xuening," Zhou Manjun suddenly remembered something, "Did your mother-in-law really give you everything from your wedding?"

"Yes, they're all here and in that room." Shen Xuening nodded, then looked at Zhou Manjun with a puzzled expression. "Why do you ask that?"

Zhou Manjun glanced at the doorway and lowered her voice, saying, "I just feel that a mother-in-law from a family like the Qin family might be difficult to get along with."

Shen Xuening replied, "It's because the other person doesn't like you. Think about it, would you put in any effort for someone you don't like?"

Zhou Manjun answered without hesitation: "Definitely not."

Shen Xuening sincerely said, "I think my mother-in-law really likes me, otherwise she wouldn't treat me so well."

Zhou Manjun nodded in agreement: "That's right. Look at this wedding, it's so enviable. We all said at our wedding that we wanted to do the same."

Shen Xuening said, "Lin Yanfei likes you, and his mother should like you a lot too. Don't worry, if you marry Lin Yanfei, the wedding will definitely be great."

Zhou Manjun became uneasy: "Xue Ning, do you think I really want to get married?"

Shen Xuening sensed something else: "What do you mean? You don't want to get married?"

"No, I'm just scared." Zhou Manjun casually unwrapped the gift. "What if he treats me badly after we get married? What if he cheats on me?"

Zhang Qianwen had just broken up with her boyfriend and hadn't said much about the topic of marriage, remaining silent for the moment.

Shen Xuening straightened up and said seriously, "Manjun, you've misunderstood. We got married for happiness and joy. These assumptions of yours will definitely exist. What you need to do is ask yourself, if these things happen, can you start your life anew?"

"In my opinion, if he has done these things to wrong you, you should just leave gracefully."

"Instead of using these thoughts to negate marriage!"

"Do you understand?"

Zhou Manjun looked at Shen Xuening expectantly: "Is that what you really think?"

Shen Xuening nodded: "That's right. No one can predict what will happen tomorrow. What we need to do is live well in the present. If something bad happens, we can just stay away from it. It's not a big deal. We only live once, so let's enjoy life and not suffer or compromise."

Zhou Manjun felt as if the clouds had parted and the sun was shining through her eyes: "I understand."

Shen Xuening comforted him, "It's okay, I don't think Lin Yanfei is that kind of person, so don't overthink it."

Zhang Qianwen then asked, "Xue Ning, if Qin Zizhou does something to betray you, are you really willing to leave?"

Shen Xuening hadn't imagined that scenario, but if it really happened, she would accept it. After all, life is unpredictable, and nothing is constant: "What's there to be reluctant about? Do you think I can't live without him?"

Zhang Qianwen gave Shen Xuening a thumbs up: "Sister, if I had your magnanimity, I wouldn't have cried so bitterly back then."

Shen Xuening couldn't help but smile: "I hope that all of us sisters can meet good men and spend our lives together peacefully and happily."

Zhang Qianwen and Zhou Manjun held Shen Xuening's hands: "We definitely will."

They unpacked and unpacked, one gift after another, until their hands ached and they were exhausted. Finally, they finished unpacking at five in the morning. After they finished, they were almost completely worn out.

After ordering breakfast delivery and eating, the group immediately went to sleep. They hadn't slept all night, and their steps were unsteady.

Shen Xuening and Qin Zizhou only woke up after Qin's mother called in the afternoon.

Qin's mother said, "Have you all opened your gifts? Do you want to have dinner together tonight? Your father is too busy, and it's too lonely for me to eat alone."

Qin Zizhou said, "Mom, we were unwrapping gifts until 5 a.m. last night and we're still not fully awake. We won't have lunch with you today, but we'll come over to have lunch with you tomorrow."

Qin's mother couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, then you can sleep a little longer."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xuening and Qin Zizhou couldn't sleep. Shen Xuening said, "I'm so tired, I don't want to cook. Let's go to a restaurant."

"I'll listen to you." Qin Zizhou lay back down. "My arms are sore."

Shen Xuening said, "That means you lack exercise."

Qin Zizhou smiled sheepishly: "I haven't been exercising much lately, but I'll start exercising again once things are sorted out."

Shen Xuening got up: "I'm going to wash up and also clear out the cardboard boxes."

"Then I won't sleep either, I'll clean up with you." Qin Zizhou turned over and followed Shen Xuening to the bathroom to wash up.

……

After carefully sorting and putting away the gifts, Shen Xuening had a meal with Qin's mother and father. Then, she went to the company to make some arrangements. After working non-stop for several days, they finally went home today.

Upon returning to Shen Xuening's home, Qin Zizhou naturally received a warm welcome from the entire family.

Qin Zizhou did not disappoint everyone; he brought gifts for his family and presented them to everyone upon seeing them.

"Why are you bringing gifts? Didn't I tell you to come directly?" Liu Juan felt embarrassed receiving gifts, and she really didn't want Qin Zizhou to give them any more.

Qin Zizhou said, "Now I am your son-in-law, how could I come empty-handed? Especially since it's Xue Ning's homecoming. In ancient times, brides always brought gifts when they returned home. Don't feel guilty, just accept them."

Liu Juan said with a smile, "Then let it go this time. Don't bring them anymore. You've given us so many things, we feel bad about it."

Qin Zizhou readily agreed: "Okay, I'll listen to Mom."

Liu Juan said with concern, "You've worked hard. Go upstairs and rest for a while. I'll go cook and call you when it's done."

"Okay." Qin Zizhou picked up his suitcase and went upstairs with Shen Xuening.

As soon as they went upstairs, Liu Juan immediately started preparing the ingredients.

A neighbor called out to Liu Juan and asked, "Juanzi, are your daughter and son-in-law back?"

Liu Juan smiled broadly, clearly overjoyed at her daughter and son-in-law's return: "Yes, you're quite well-informed; you knew they were just back."

“I saw it, I didn’t just hear about it,” the neighbor asked curiously. “What gift did your son-in-law bring you this time?”

Liu Juan said, "I brought the gift, but I've left it here and haven't had a chance to look at it yet."

The neighbor said enviously, "It must be something good. You should wear it sometime so we can take a look. We can't afford it, but it would be nice to see it."

Liu Juan agreed to everything: "Okay, I'll definitely wear it another day so you can have a good look at it."
