Chapter 922 - 004 Officially Visiting_5
If a prospective son-in-law shows stinginess on his first visit, then, later on, the daughter will suffer from offense, and it’s better to replace such a son-in-law sooner rather than later.
Of course, this only applies before marriage. After marriage, one shouldn’t keep buying these face-saving items. Instead, it’s important to purchase practical and cost-effective things, as that’s how to lead a good daily life together. This is called knowing how to live.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie and Uncle," Michael Auclair nodded, and after entering the house, he placed the things he was carrying on the coffee table. The coffee table could not hold everything, so some boxes were set on the floor. "These are some health supplements and skincare products I bought for Auntie, and I wasn’t sure what Uncle liked to drink, so I got some cigarettes, wine, and tea. Since Uncle is knowledgeable about tea, could you please check if the teas I’ve bought are good?"
"..." Michael Auclair’s humility and caution especially pleased the elders. The father of the Graham Family was also very happy, reaching out to take the tea Michael passed him. The price tag was still attached, and he was shocked to the point of being somewhat speechless. "This tea, even the loose ones are nice, but this is too expensive. The fancy packaging isn’t cost-effective. You and Avery still need to buy a house. You should save where you can, understand?"
Auntie Graham, standing beside him, nodded in complete agreement. They saw and felt Michael’s sincerity, as well as his feelings for Avery, and they were one hundred percent confident in entrusting Avery to him.
Since they were now family, his money was also Avery’s money. Encouraging him to save meant Avery wouldn’t struggle so much with buying a house.
When they, as parents, saw their daughter hustling for a house and car, it hurt them to watch. Urging her to find a boyfriend, apart from being anxious about her growing older, was mostly because they felt Avery deserved a man who would truly cherish her.
As their daughter, Avery was such a wonderful miss, indeed deserving of someone’s affection.
