Only then did Gu Qibao come to her senses, nodding like a pecking chicken. She quickly joined in the applause, taking a proud glance at the villagers and students around her who were all looking at Di Mingjue with excited, somewhat idolizing gazes.
Wow, the third heir of the Di Family is truly the epitome of elegance and sophistication! I am completely in awe of him.
The fact that her husband was so outstanding and eyecatching naturally reflected positively on her.
Di Mingjue was smiling in turn, watching her stand among the crowd and applaud. She was preening like a wolf wagging its tail, and annoyingly enough, he found her show-off antics endearingly irresistible.
Why did he adore this scruffy creature no matter what she did?
Oh, the travesty!
The village elder enthusiastically said to the third Di heir, "Mr. Di, we have prepared small gifts for you. We don’t have anything valuable in the countryside, so please don’t take it amiss."
At the elder’s wave, a few villagers came forward holding objects.
These gifts included eggs, duck eggs, fresh vegetables, and even a few live chickens and ducks.
Di Mingjue was taken aback; he hadn’t anticipated that the villagers would give him gifts.
He promptly declined, "I appreciate your sentiment, but I can’t accept these gifts. You should keep them for your own use."
"This..." the elder, slightly embarrassed by the refusal, quickly replied, "Mr. Di, we meant no disrespect. We are deeply grateful that you are taking an interest in our village. Especially the vice president’s visit has touched our hearts. Although our gifts are humble, we still hope you accept them."
"The vice president is simply doing his duty," Di Mingjue causally responded, "As am I, my students are here, so it’s only right for me to check on them. I’m not looking down on these gifts, but I really don’t lack anything. These are the fruits of your hard labor, and as for me, I haven’t actually done anything yet. It wouldn’t be right for me to take them."
Gu Qibao thought Di Mingjue looked so handsome while saying all these moral words!
Why hadn’t she noticed how handsome her husband was before?
Just as the village elder was about to say something else, Di Mingjue cut him off. "Alright, it’s getting late and I should leave. You have my promise that I will accomplish what I have agreed upon. Please take these gifts back."
