Chapter 456: Chapter 214: New Intelligence: Moutai Wine Bottle, Platinum Butterfly Carp, and Big Brother’s Troubles!

When Jiang Tao and his father-in-law were picked up and brought back home by the sister-in-law, it was already 7:30.

Just as Xu Li was coming out of the kitchen with a plate of freshly cooked, steaming hot dumplings.

"Honey, Dad, how was your catch?"

Xu Li smiled sweetly at the two most important men in her life, her face glowing with happiness.

"Haha, we had a pretty fruitful catch, but it was all thanks to Dad’s efforts. I was just there for the fun."

"Let me help my dear wife with the dumplings."

Jiang Tao chuckled as he stepped forward to assist Xu Li, but she playfully slapped his hand and teased:

"Go wash your hands, you’re such a grown-up and still need to be told to wash up before meals."

"Alright~ As you command!"

Jiang Tao smiled and headed towards the bathroom to wash his hands.

Xu Wencheng, seeing his eldest daughter’s blissful spousal relationship, felt genuinely happy for both of them.

"Wow, so many fish! Dad, you really had a lucky day today!"

Xu Li glanced at the bucket of fish her dad was carrying, her face lighting up with joy.

"Haha, indeed, Jiang Tao gave me this Lucky Stone, and it’s really working wonders!"

Xu Wencheng chuckled, not missing the chance to show off the wonderful gift from his good son-in-law.

"Yes, indeed. My husband got these Lucky Stones blessed by a master, and each one is quite effective."

Xu Li, being the first besides Jiang Tao to experience the effects of the Lucky Stone, had a deeper appreciation for its magic than her dad did.

"Absolutely! The Lucky Stone my brother-in-law gave me is amazing! Sis, I was just about to tell you!"

As Xu Sa returned home after taking some time at the parking lot, she spoke excitedly:

"On the way back from picking up Dad and brother-in-law, I stopped by the gas station, and I scanned a receipt and got an 88 yuan red envelope!"

Xu Li laughed, "Really? Such good luck."

"Yeah! I thought at most, it would be one or two yuan, I didn’t expect such a big one!"

These little fortunes in life made Xu Sha feel delighted.

Back in Beijing, Jiang Tao, through Brother Tongzi’s updated intelligence, had obtained 30 pieces of River Stone of various sizes.

He took them to a jewelry processing shop and had them crafted into different accessories based on their shapes and sizes.

Some were suitable for bracelets, some for pendants, and others for charms.

Jiang Tao gifted a piece to each of his and Xu Li’s parents and family, advising them to wear it close to them.

During this time, everyone genuinely felt the good luck brought by the Lucky Stones.

Everyone naturally put more trust in him.

After some chitchat, dinner officially commenced.

Du Yongmei knew Jiang Tao loved dumplings and would often make them for him.

This mother-in-law was growing more satisfied with her son-in-law, treating him almost like her own son.

"Mom, your skills are way above those pastry chefs in Five Star restaurants, these dumplings are delicious!"

Jiang Tao praised his mother-in-law while enjoying the thin-skinned, big filling beef dumplings.

"Haha, eat more if you like them, I made plenty today."

"Take some home with you for tomorrow morning, make pan-fried dumplings for Xiao Xue."

Du Yongmei’s face lit up with Jiang Tao’s compliments.

Jiang Xue also gave her grandma a thumbs up, praising:

"Grandma, your dumplings are the best in the world~"

"Hahaha, our Xiao Xue has such a sweet little mouth~"

With everyone’s praises, Du Yongmei felt a deep sense of satisfaction, feeling that the efforts spent making these dumplings were well worth it!

The meal started around 8 and continued until around 9.

After eating their fill, the father-in-law went out fishing again, intending to do so the whole night.

Old Xu had this youthful energy, like a young man spending the night at an internet cafe.

After Xu Sha dropped off Old Xu at the reservoir, she joined her mom, her sister, and her brother-in-law for a round of Mahjong.

Jiang Xue sat nearby, thoroughly entertained by putting together a giant LEGO toy her aunt got her.

Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle~

Amidst laughter and chatter as they played cards, time flew by until it was past 11 at night.

Xu Li and Jiang Tao decided not to go home tonight, staying over at their mother-in-law’s place.

The bedroom Xu Li lived in before her marriage was still kept intact for her.

The double bed in her room was just right for two, but cramped for three.

Jiang Xue was sent to her aunt’s room to sleep together.

After taking turns washing up, everyone went to their rooms to sleep.

While waiting on the sofa, Jiang Tao casually activated [Sleep Mode] for everyone.

When it was his turn to wash up, it was already past midnight.

While brushing his teeth, Jiang Tao opened up the Daily Intelligence System panel with a thought.

He checked the latest intelligence for today.

[Today’s Intelligence 01]:

During your visit to the Baiyulan Hotel yesterday, you received related intelligence——

The Moutai wine bottle you drank yesterday is a special item.

Upon obtaining its ownership, it can be activated to gain a random attribute.

...

"Moutai wine bottle? Special item?"

Seeing the first refreshed content today, Jiang Tao was instantly delighted.

Another special item was refreshed!

What attribute will it have this time?
