Chapter 93
While Alice distributed the gifts to the children in the courtyard, Alfred and the others began discussing
with Daniel in the house.
“Daniel, what do you think if I give Alice a gift worth a hundred thousand dollars at the first meeting? Is
it good?” Alfred was holding a nice box in his hand with a gift inside.
Although they were told to pretend to be poor, they still had to give her a gift to show their sincerity.
Daniel frowned. “Grandpa, it’s too expensive.”
Alfred heard it and pulled a long face immediately. “How can it be too expensive? I think it’s a little too
cheap.
Hector stood aside and glanced at his wife, Rebecca.
At first, Rebecca wasn’t happy with her daughter–in–law Alice, but she saw Alice this day and her
concern for Daniel’s three
kids.
Besides, she also found it very interesting when she saw her son Daniel, who was always arrogant and
aloof, had willingly played Alice’s driver and porter.
So, she wasn’t unhappy with Alice anymore and finally accepted her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe took the initiative to approach them and distributed the gifts she had prepared in advance to the
family elders. And she also explained, “In an ordinary family, people give gifts of no more than two
thousand dollars at the first meeting. Daniel claims to be poor, and I think he’ll be fine if we give Alice a
gift worth two hundred dollars. I’ve wrapped the gifts for everyone. And, we would tell Alice we’ve sold
one of our cows to buy her gifts if she asked.”
Alfred and Marie took over the gifts and weighed them in their hands. At the same time, they shook
their heads and sighed, looking at Daniel bitterly.
Weren’t it for Daniel, they would never give their granddaughter–in–law Alice such cheap gifts.
Daniel did understand what his grandparents were thinking. However, he and Alice didn’t get to know
each other well yet, so he did not want to let her know too much about him then.
He thought if things between him and Alice were going to work out and they fell deeply in love, he
would treat Alice fairly and give her the best he had.
“Grandpa, Grandma, Father, Mother…” Daniel looked at the gifts in the house again, cleared his throat,
and reminded, “These gifts are not too expensive or nice. If you don’t like them, please don’t throw
them away right now. Later…”
“Who said I don’t like it?” Before Daniel could finish speaking, Marie interrupted him. “I like it very
much! I want to use it all the time!”
“I like it, too! I would also like it even if Alice gave me a fallen leaf!” Alfred added.
The fact was that the Kaur family was not as picky as Daniel had thought.
And Alice was very thoughtful in picking their gifts, and they happened to be something they could use.
How could they not like them?
“Marie, do you need my help with lunch?”
After bonding with the children, Alice came in and asked.
She thought she should help with meals since she was part of the family.
“Oh, you’re so sweet, dear Alice. Daniel’s four sisters have gotten lunch ready. Just make yourself at
home and talk to us.” After Marie finished speaking, she pulled Alice in and gave everyone a look.
“Alice. This is my first meeting gift for you. I hope you like it.” Rebecca, the mother–in–law, gave her the
gift first.
Alice took over the gift, smiled, and said sweetly, “Thanks, Rebecca.”
Rebecca felt her heart melt at that moment.
She didn’t have a daughter and had always wanted a sweet girl in the family.
Now, her dream had come true.

Alice thanked him and took over the gift.
After that, the other elders in the family winked at Daniel to let him introduce them while giving Alice
gifts.

Chapter 93
After getting to know the elders, Daniel’s brothers and cousins came over. Other than William, Alice
had never seen the
others.
William took the lead, and they began introducing themselves one by one.
However, Alice noticed something.
Children of the Kaur family were ranked according to age. Daniel was the fifth child of his generation,
and William was the seventh. The sixth child was Noah, and the ninth child was Hunter. But the eighth
child, Josh, wasn’t there.
“Daniel, where is he, then? Is he out working?” Alice could not help but ask.
