Chapter 120 The Gift of Headache
Bai Mo has a headache now. Yang Zhiyan doesn't reveal anything about his parents, which makes him do it. Occasionally, I heard that Yang Zhiyan's parents are both university professors, her mother teaches Chinese studies, and her father is a senior expert professor of economics. I don't know anything else about this information, even if I know the other party's personality, which can rarely be used for the symptoms. There is a bigger problem in front of Bai Mo. I don't know that Yang Zhiyan's parents' personality and temper are okay. After all, it's the first time to go to their house. No matter how bad-tempered he is, it is impossible to attack when he sees him. And people who can cultivate a daughter like Yang Zhiyan should not have a bad temper.
Chinese people pay attention to meeting and giving gifts, which is an understanding handed down from ancient times, and they are very particular about what kind of gifts they give to the society. Once they give the wrong gift, it is a very serious thing. Now the biggest problem facing Bai Mo is that he doesn't know what kind of gift to give to Yang Zhiyan's parents. If it is too vulgar, each gambling chain is a high-intellectual who will definitely leave a bad impression in the eyes of the other party. If it is too elegant, if the other party is not an elegant person, it will be a little pretentious. If you take the popular route to send some fruit, although it is better than nothing, the effect is very bad. If I send some supplements, it seems that I am still in poor health.
"What should I do?" Bai Mo suddenly became a little distressed. He had never given gifts to others since he was a child, let alone his father-in-law and mother-in-law. The first choice of gift-giving made Bai Mo at a loss. It would be great to go empty-handed if you don't send it, but it's impossible.
Bai Mo encountered such a thing as the capital for the first time. If he chose between the Li family and going to meet his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, Bai Mo would rather have a fight with the Li family. But Bai Mo doesn't want to let go of this opportunity. If he doesn't go at this time, his relationship with Yang Zhiyan will face the biggest crisis in history.
"Go, you must go!" This is Bai Mo's only thought about going to Yang Zhiyan's house this time. Then what gift should I bring?" This is the biggest problem facing Bai Mo.
In fact, Bai Mo didn't know that it was the first time he went to see his girlfriend's parents, and it was informal. There was no need to bring any gifts. The gift was just to express that this person was sensible, far from being as horrible as Bai Mo thought, but Bai Mo is now the first to do this kind of thing, and it is inevitable to think about it.
"Let's go downstairs and ask my parents, uncles and aunts." Unable to think of any gift, Bai Mo had to wash and go downstairs for dinner.
Li Tiannan's family stayed with the Baimo family at night. After discussing it overnight, but Li Tiannan's spirit is still so good. It is thought that they have discussed a lot of good results.
During the meal, Bai Mo has been restless and doesn't know how to speak. Although he is very thick-skinned, he still doesn't know how to speak about such a thing. Halfway through the meal, it is not a way to wait like this. In desperation, Bai Mo still said, "Mom, I want to ask you something."
Li Wan has long loved to see that her son has been thinking about things when eating, and being restless is like doing something guilty. Li Wan asked, "What's the matter?"
Bai Moxin asked, "What kind of gift should I bring to my girlfriend's house to meet her parents?"
As soon as this came out, everyone stopped eating and looked at Bai Mo with loving eyes. Feeling these eyes, Bai Mo's heart tightened, "It's bad. I went to the doctor randomly. It seems that I made a mistake!"
Bai Xianxian, who squatted in Li Mengxi's arms, knocked on the bowl in front of her excitedly with her chopsticks and said, "Oh... Brother is going to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law!"
Hearing Bai Xian'er's words, Bai Mo suddenly sweated.
Li Wan and Bai Renqing looked at each other and smiled, and even felt that their son had grown up.
Li Mengxi stroked Bai Xianxian's head and asked with a smile, "Little cousin, who is your girlfriend? Is it the one who plays "Peritive" and "Hundred Birds Chaofeng" with you?"
Bai Mo nodded and said, "Yes!"
Li Mengxi said, "I heard that you haven't been in school for a long time yesterday. I didn't expect you to have a girlfriend so soon, hehe..."
"Uh..." Bai Mo is a little speechless about this cousin's words. It doesn't have much to do with finding a girlfriend soon after school. Even if it has something to do with those things, it doesn't need time to measure feelings.
Bai Renqing smiled and said, "Xiao Mo has grown up and knows how to find a girlfriend. Your mother and I are still worried that you don't know anything about your relationship. It seems that you are worried for nothing, hehe...
Compared with Bai Renqing's calmness, Li Wan looked a little excited and hurriedly asked, "Which girl is she?" What's your name? How is your appearance? ......“
"Uh..." Bai Mo was speechless again, "A failure, a failure, this question should not be asked in front of everyone!" Now that he has said it, Bai Mo has to continue to say it bravely.
Bai Mo said, "My name is Yang Zhiyan. My parents are both university professors. It's hard for me to say 'Xi Shi in the eyes of lovers'. You should understand it. I'm just my opinion. It's not good to ask me about a party."
Li Wan nodded and said, "It's really not easy to answer. Well, take her home and let mom have a good look at this."
I didn't expect that my mother still had this hand, so Bai Mo had no choice but to paste it and said, "This...if you have time... let me have a look."
Li Wan answered, "Don't you have time these days? Don't worry, your mother won't eat her. You really forgot your parents when you have a lover!"
"Tomorrow?" Bai Mo said, "Tomorrow won't work. I'm going to Zhiyan's house tomorrow."
"Then the day after tomorrow, that's it!" Li Wan did not give Bai Mo a chance to resist at all. Li Wan saw Bai Mo's idea, but it could not make his idea succeed. Bai Mo did not dare to disobey.
Bai Mo said with a bitter face, "Mom, you are too domineering. I'll try my best. This Zhiyan is thin-skinned, and it's not certain whether she dares to come. If she really dares not come, don't give birth!"
"Don't worry, as long as you don't get in the way, your mother won't be angry. What I'm most worried about is that you don't want her to come." Li Wandao.
"How can I? I strongly support your mother!" Seeing what Li Wan wanted to say, Bai Mo immediately changed the topic and said, "Mom, after talking for so long, you told me what gift to bring to Zhiyan's house!"
Li Wan asked, "Do you know what her parents like?"
Bai Mo shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Li Wan asked, "Don't you know at all?"
Bai Mo said, "I know a little bit. I occasionally heard Zhiyan talk about it. Her father likes plants and her mother likes traditional Chinese paintings. It seems that sometimes they will quarrel about whether to buy a pot of plants or a traditional Chinese painting. I don't think these are useful hobbies for us. I can't bring a pot of plants. Let's go over with a traditional Chinese painting of a fort. These two white ink were not considered, because it is not a good behavior to send a pot of famous plants, and ordinary plants are not good at all, and I don't know where to get valuable plants. Traditional painting is even worse. You can't get a forgery. If you make a treasure, it's too precious, and you don't know who the other party likes. If you send it blindly, it's better not to send it if you send it wrong.
The white and delicate voice will always sound at the critical moment: "There is a pot of beautiful words and a beautiful painting in Dad's study."
The sweat on Bai Renqing's head immediately came out. This little ancestor is really amazing! Those two things are his sweetheart. The pot of beautiful flowers "the legendary "Sword Yulan", which painting is the real "100,000 Mountain Picture" but he has made a lot of effort to get, and it has always been like a treasure. Jianyulan has always been placed in the study and takes good care of it every day, but the "100,000 Mountain Map" is still rarely taken out. When she took it out to watch it, she was seen by Bai Xianxian. She thought she would forget it after a long time, but she still remembered it.
Dad's face was a little abnormal and said, "I think it's a little abrupt to sing a gift for the first time. If it's too good, the other party may not accept it. It would be better to send some simple gifts." Speaking of this, when he saw that Li played with a bad face, he quickly added: "If you need it in the future, I will still be fashionable with both hands. After all, Xiao Mo's lifelong event is the most important."
Li Wan nodded and said, "It's really not good to give such a valuable song gift at one time. What on earth should I give?"
Li Mengxi said, "You are so troublesome. Gifts are so troublesome. If it were me, I would go back empty-handed. Maybe they really don't want gifts."
Li Mengxi's mother defeated her daughter and said, "It's not necessary to give something as a gift, but it's definitely not good to go empty-handed, because the other party will think that you are ignorant of the world and not polite. I think that since both of them are university professors, and one is interested in words and the other is interested in plants. If you are interested, then they may have a special preference for tea. I think it's better to send some tea.
Li Wan's eyes lit up and said, "My sister-in-law is still thoughtful. Xiao Mo, we still have a lot of precious tea. You can take some and bring some fruits by the way. This should be fine. As for what will happen to their family, I think my son will behave very well."
Bai Mo said with a wry smile, "I don't have any bottom in my heart. Let's take a look step by step." Since his mother and aunt chose gifts for themselves, Bai Mo doesn't have to worry about it. He really doesn't know anything about gifts. Since someone has made a choice for yourself, just do it by yourself. In fact, it is also possible to use plants as gifts. At least rare plants are easy to get for Bai Mo. He drills into the deep mountains and forests. There are not all those cherished plants, but he doesn't have time now. He will go to Yang Zhiyan's house tomorrow, so he doesn't have to run so far.
