Lin Yaxiang’s words represented the attitude of the entire Lin family. At that moment, even Grandpa Lin nodded.
Xie Qiao agreed with that.
With her nod, Lin Yaxiang silently heaved a sigh of relief.
Her family had been in the capital for so long, and they would occasionally come to the capital to inquire about the Xie family’s situation.
They were just lowly commoners, and they knew that the Xie family was now a high-class family. If they were to enter rashly, they were afraid that others would think that they were here to take advantage of them.
Hence, earlier on, in order to enter, they had specially prepared gifts.
Unfortunately, before they could even enter, they were chased away by the servants.
After that, they obediently lived in the village outside the capital, thinking that they could try to save up more money in the future.
However, they did not expect that the Xie family would actually take the initiative to look for them.
Lin Yaxiang and the others were led to the inner courtyard, and they first put the things in the guest room.
Grandpa Lin took out four gifts.
They were all for the children.
Most of the gifts given by the villagers were practical. Even if it was an egg, the recipient would be very happy. However, Grandpa Lin was worried that the Xie family would look down on them, so the gifts he gave were quite expensive.
Each of the four small silver medals should weigh five catties, and there were even some designs on them.
With the craftsmanship fee and the value of the silver medal itself, it might come up to a total of 30 to 40 taels of silver.
Moreover, there were also some other gifts that were unloaded from the carriages outside.
The Lin family spent quite some money this time.
They had to accept the gifts. After all, Grandpa Lin was an elder.
Xie Qiao had two of the younger ones come forward to receive the items.
However, although Xie Pinghuai did not have much money on hand, there were still many good things in the house. There was no lack of gold and silver. When he looked at these things, he did not find them special. His expression was indifferent.
Xie Xi was different. She held the box containing the silver medal tightly, as if she was afraid that someone would take it away.
These two children’ attitudes were completely exposed to Grandpa Lin and the others.
It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed.
He came here happily, and naturally, he hoped to get closer to his grandson and granddaughter. Now, it was obvious that this grandson looked down on them. It was a slap to both his face and heart.
“I think Grandpa Lin should also know that my father married another woman after Second Mother left. When Pinghuai was six or seven, she took care of him. Ms. Lu had no children, so it was inevitable that she indulged him a little. It also made his temper a little terrible. In this family, even when speaking to his father and brother, he only has fear and has no respect. As an elder sister, my health is lacking, so I can’t personally teach him. I thought in the future… if it’s alright, I’ll have to trouble Grandpa Lin a lot,” Xie Qiao said politely.
Xie Pinghuai pursed his lips.
Who asked them to stick their noise in?
These people… who were they? They were not familiar with each other!
However, he did not dare to refute his eldest sister’s words and could only stand there obediently.
Seeing the children across from him looking at him with their big eyes, Xie Pinghuai grimaced and rolled his eyes at them. Two of the four to five-year-old children pouted in fright.
Grandpa Lin did not expect Xie Qiao to say that. He was very surprised.
These words meant that they were going to have a long-term relationship, right?
“Of course, of course,” Grandpa Lin was very happy.
Xie Qiao found an opportunity to chat a little more.
Lin Yaxiang had been observing this girl the whole time. When she first entered the door, she saw that this girl’s gaze was always lowered and thought that there was something on her mind.
However, after hearing what she said, she realized that this girl was really delightful.
Her voice was soft but not coquettish. She sounded very spirited, and her expression seemed to be a little casual. However, in reality, this girl could respond to everything her father said.
Her father was only talking about the trivial matters of their hometown and the villages outside the capital.
Even so, she did not seem to be impatient at all.
