After feeding the Lilliputian Kingdom, I became rich through plane trading
Chapter 135 When will there be good news?
Chapter 135 When will there be good news?
"Is this a carved wooden box made of red sandalwood? It smells so good, and the patterns on it are also very beautiful."
My great aunt touched the box and gently opened the lock.
When you open the lid of the box, you will see a pair of emerald green and transparent glass-type jade bracelets.
"Oh, that's too expensive."
She took out one of the jade bracelets and looked at it carefully.
The bright white light in the room penetrates the bracelet, revealing its delicate, pure and flawless texture.
"It's rich green, clear and lustrous. It's the best of the old pit variety. You may not have the means to buy it. This gift is too precious."
Xu Mingzhu, who was standing by, bent down to take a look and couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.
"I wanted to give my mother a pair before, but unfortunately I couldn't find one of suitable quality. Now Zhenzhen has sent such good ones, so I don't have to worry about it anymore."
Local elderly people love jade bracelets and start looking for them everywhere after they turn 70.
I buy it at this age, on the one hand, because there are not many jewelry suitable for old ladies to wear, and jade bracelets are the most luxurious and nourishing.
On the other hand, it is a popular regional custom and jade bracelets can be used as burial objects in the future.
The elderly are not shy about this; instead, they are very active in looking for options.
Children will also buy them as gifts to their parents. The more jade bracelets they have and the better the quality, the more proud the elderly will be. When they gather with old sisters for tea, this is the most face-saving and most worth showing off thing.
My great aunt was very happy and put the jade bracelet on her wrist immediately.
"It's thoughtful. I like it very much."
"Which friend gave it to you? Why don't you come over for a quick meal?"
Yun Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a friend named Pei. He doesn't have time to come today, so he asked me to wish you a happy birthday on his behalf."
My great aunt saw that her cheeks were blushing and she was vague and unwilling to explain clearly.
I understood it instantly.
My great-uncle who was sitting next to them opened another box and was surprised to see a wild ginseng with intact ginseng root and strong medicinal aroma.
"Good ginseng! It's not easy to find ginseng of this vintage. It's great for use as medicine or in soups to nourish the body."
"This friend is incredible. You can get to know him when you have time."
The two elders liked the two gifts very much and pulled Yunzhen aside to chat for a while.
As we were chatting, my great aunt suddenly looked dazed.
"Zhenzhen's voice is so nice, it feels like I've heard it somewhere before, and it feels so familiar."
My great-uncle also nodded and said, "It sounds familiar to me, but I can't remember where I heard it."
Yun Zhen smiled guiltily, but he didn't dare to acknowledge his identity as the mountain god here.
For her, she had only not seen Yun Qiuying and Xu Changhe for a month or two.
But for the two elders, the last time the mountain god appeared was more than 40 years ago.
As people age, their body functions deteriorate and their memory is not as good as before.
The beautiful memories of my youth have long been given a special filter by the years.
No one could compare to the divine voice in her memory that enlightened and encouraged her. No matter how similar it was, it would not make the old woman associate it in that direction.
The great aunt took Yunzhen's hand and said lovingly:
"Please come visit us more often when you have time. We have a special room reserved for you at home."
Yunzhen naturally nodded in agreement.
After she returned to her seat, it was her second uncle's family's turn to celebrate the birthday next.
The gifts their family prepared were rather ordinary.
The health products given by my second uncle and second aunt are worth more than 2000 yuan, and the Ganoderma lucidum given by Yun Jiarui is worth more than 2 yuan.
Yun Jiali asked a student from the Fine Arts Department to draw her antique-style birthday painting, which cost only 300 yuan. However, she claimed that it was her own work, highlighting that it was made "by hand" and was precious.
If it weren’t for Yun Zhen’s luxurious birthday gift, these gifts wouldn’t seem so bad.
But the ginseng and jade bracelets were too dazzling, which easily raised everyone's expectations, making the gifts they gave seem very shabby.
Second Aunt is very concerned about her reputation, how could she tolerate such a shameful thing?
She wanted to make a sarcastic remark just now, calling Yun Zhen's gift a "fake." Uncle Yun and Yun Jiarui stopped her in time, preventing Aunt Er from saying anything.
After all, my knowledgeable great-aunt and great-uncle both said they were good and personally certified that the jade bracelets and ginseng were genuine.
If Second Aunt stood up to provoke regardless of the consequences, she would end up in trouble. Not only would she be laughed at, but she would also leave a bad impression in front of the two elders and so many celebrities and guests.
In fact, my great aunt and great uncle did not mind at all, and still accepted it with a gentle smile.
The elderly do not care about the value of the gifts; what is important is that the family can take this opportunity to reunite, chat and strengthen their relationships.
But my second uncle's family felt very uncomfortable, always worried that others would look down on them because of this.
Yun Jiali felt even more that her great-aunt treated her differently.
He protected his cousin and praised her endlessly, but just said "good girl, that's thoughtful" to her, and that was it.
Very biased.
Yun Jiali is too young and doesn’t understand the grudges of the previous generation.
What she didn't know was that her great aunt hated her mother very much and thought that Feng Xiaojuan was too greedy and a troublemaker.
The two brothers of the Yun family were almost alienated from each other, and Grandpa Yun could not rest in peace until his death.
The fact that she could still accept the birthday gift with a smile today and maintain superficial family relations was already quite tolerant and kind.
Do you want her to treat Yun Jiali the same way she treats Yun Zhen?
I'm afraid that woman Feng Xiaojuan will immediately take advantage of her and use her power to stir up another mess.
Perhaps he noticed his great aunt's distant attitude, or perhaps he was still bothered by what had just happened.
Uncle Yun's family became very silent and left in a hurry after the birthday banquet.
Before leaving, Yun Jiali turned around and looked towards the main table.
Then I saw my great aunt talking to Yunzhen again.
The smile was so warm, as if he was talking to his own granddaughter.
Yun Jiali was very unhappy. She snorted coldly and followed her parents.
At this time, most of the guests in the banquet hall had left.
Only the relatives from the Yun and Xu families were still chatting.
While Mr. and Mrs. Yun were not paying attention, my great aunt quietly asked Yun Zhen:
"When will there be good news? Let my great aunt also experience the joy of four generations living under one roof."
Yun Zhen was embarrassed by her teasing and could only explain: "We just confirmed our relationship, it won't be that fast."
My great aunt was surprised.
She is so generous and open-minded just when they are in love, so the man must come from a good family.
This is the birthday of a non-direct elder, and it is very rare to be able to show full courtesy.
"Bring it over to your great aunt someday, and I'll take a look at it for you."
Yunzhen smiled and said "OK".
After the birthday banquet, my great aunt and great uncle warmly invited us to stay in Qingxi County for a few more days before returning.
But Yunzhen's family still had work to do, so they declined and drove back to their home in Ya City that day.
On the way, Yunzhen was still worried that his parents would ask him about it.
How should I explain then which friend I am giving the gift for?
But Yun's father and mother didn't ask in the end.
Because this kind of thing is very common, there were even several examples at the birthday party.
My great-aunt Yun Qiuying had a powerful business empire and was very popular with people. There were many people who tried to get close to her and give her gifts through relatives from the Yun and Xu families.
Among those who try to make friends with others, some give gold and houses as gifts. Jade bracelets and ginseng are not the most generous gifts.
Yun Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
