"Ai Xiao, you are very active in greeting people today." It is rare for Xiaoxiao to see Ai Xiao greet people enthusiastically, but she is somewhat surprised, and inevitably mumbles.
"Mom, come in quickly, I'm so hungry." Ai Xiao held Xiaoxiao's hand coquettishly, and stuck out her tongue at Paul who was behind her. Paul tacitly made a victory gesture towards her, one big and one small, secretly smiling happily.
After entering the house, Karen was also busy telling Paul to sit down, and brought over a five-color fruit plate for guests. Karen didn't know what she had eaten, which made her stomach upset. She didn't even have time to ask who Paul was, so she hurried into the room to rest for a while.
Paul didn't look outside either, and turned to look for the kitchen, wanting to help with cooking. Xiaoxiao forced him into the living room: "Hey, Paul, it's not easy for you to fly all the way here, what are you busy with? You can just sit outside for a while, there are ready-made meals at home, I'll make some cold salads Bean curd is it.¡±
Xiaoxiao went into the kitchen and was busy, leaving Aixiao and Paul to drink tea and eat snacks outside. Seeing that there was no one around, Paul hurriedly took out a red envelope from his coat pocket: "Ai Xiao, Uncle Paul is very glad to meet you. This is a gift from Uncle, please keep it."
Although Ai Xiao is ignorant, she is smart after all, and she also knows that the red envelope is heavy, and I am afraid that she has put a lot of money in it. She quickly shook her head and waved her hands, "Uncle Paul, thank you. But my mother said that it's not good to just accept people's things."
Hearing this, Paul leaned closer, and said with a slight smile, "Then is Uncle Paul someone else? I like you as a child when I see you, and I'm your mother's friend, so you can't see me. I'm in elementary school, food and clothing need money for everything, and it's not easy for your mother to support the family. Normally, your uncle is abroad, so he can't help you much. This is just a little bit of my own kindness. Just quietly Put it away, and take it out after uncle is gone, okay?"
Ai Xiao twisted her fingers, pouted and said, "Uncle, I still don't think I can take it"
At that time, Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain of the kitchen and came out with two plates of side dishes. Seeing that Ai Xiao was covering her hands in embarrassment, she asked, "Ai Xiao, what are you hiding?"
Ai Xiao immediately blushed: "Mom, it's nothing Really nothing."
Xiaoxiao has sharp eyes, and soon discovered the red envelope that Ai Xiao hid behind her back. But I saw her put the side dishes on the table in a leisurely manner, and then took out a tissue to wipe the water drops on her hands: "Ai Xiao, didn't mom always tell you, don't take advantage of others? Isn't this red envelope we should take Yes, you give it back to Uncle Paul, okay?"
As she spoke, she took out the red envelope from Ai Xiao's hand and stuffed it back into Paul's hand: "Paul, it's too polite for you to come here so rarely. If you still treat me as a friend, take the red envelope back. "
Although Xiaoxiao still had a smile on her face, Paul still noticed that subtle annoyance.
He hurriedly explained: "Xiaoxiao, I don't mean anything else, just thinking that it's better to come sooner than later. Since it's a holiday in China, I don't want to come empty-handed, and I don't have anything to give, so I'll give it to you by the way." Seal a red envelope. And when meeting for the first time, isn¡¯t it right to wrap a small envelope for the child?¡±
Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao suddenly bowed her head to Paul and apologized: "Paul, you make me feel very sorry. To be honest, the sales of our winery's wine in overseas markets depend on your help to build bridges. Everyone in the winery would like to thank you for your help. I already feel that I owe you a lot of favors, and I should never accept this red envelope. Although we Ai Xiao are still young, we still need to understand right and wrong. I I want her to understand that making money is not easy, she should not reach out for it, but rely on her own efforts to get it"
Seeing that Xiaoxiao was serious, Paul hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "I'm also to blame for this matter. When I came out in a hurry, I brought dried apricots and plums. I always felt that there was something missing, so I wanted to make up for it with red envelopes. Ai Xiao She is a very sensible child, and you have taught her very well. Don¡¯t be angry with her, it¡¯s all up to me.¡± (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
