Chapter 1714

Cai Xiufen asked this question on purpose because of this idea.

"Professor Nian is not familiar with the Antique Street in City A, so I took her there to buy the gifts. She personally selected the gifts here." Mu Shaoling knew what Cai Xiufen was thinking and helped out.

In her heart, as long as it is related to herself, it will pose a threat to her.

"Oh no wonder, Shaoling, the antique shop you mentioned should be very expensive, right? Professor Nian is just a researcher with a decent job and a good salary, but those antiques cost tens of millions every minute, Professor Nian Wouldn't it be a big burden to buy such an expensive one?" Cai Xiufen continued, even if Mu Shaoling intended to protect Nian Mu, she would not let it go.

Nianmu was helpless, it could be seen that Cai Xiufen just refused to let her go.

She said: "Things are not expensive, as long as the elderly like them, that's fine."

"Not expensive?" Cai Xiufen raised a smile and looked at the packing box in the butler's hand, "There are no antiques that are not expensive. Could it be that you bought a fake and got scammed?"

She deliberately mentioned that Mr. Mu hates others to fool him with fake things.

Especially when it comes to antiques, what old people hate most is counterfeiters.

Knowing what kind of person Cai Xiufen is, Nianmu felt a headache, and when he was about to explain, he heard Mu Shaoling say: "Is it true or not, grandpa will test it, and you will know?"

She was stunned, she must know that Mu Shaoling would not buy fake things to fool the old man, so even if he opened the gift now, it would be fine.

But he has always disdain to haggle with Cai Xiufen, unless the other party offends his inverse scales.

But now, Mu Shaoling looked at Cai Xiufen with a calculating look on his face, and said indifferently: "Since auntie is worried that Professor Nian will be cheated by others, since there are not too many guests, let's take apart the presents and inspect them, grandpa." Let’s also take a look, if Professor Nian really bought a fake product, he should be held accountable.”

Mr. Mu didn't want to do this at first, but Cai Xiufen was aggressive. If he didn't follow Mu Shaoling's words, he might not have peace tonight.

At the same time, a guest standing on the side also said: "This method is good. It is said that the old man's ability to appreciate antiques is first-class. Why don't we take this opportunity to open our eyes."

Nianmu listened to what they said, feeling helpless, when Cai Xiufen made a fuss, the others followed suit.

Nothing more than, just want to see their own jokes.

It's just a pity, she doesn't understand antiques, but she is also confident that the antique gift in the butler's hand will not be fake.

Mu Shaoling looked at Nian Mu and asked, "The gift is from Professor Nian. Professor Nian, do you agree to open it now?"

Nianmu met the firmness in his eyes and nodded, "No problem, let's take it apart."

Seeing that Nian Mu also said the same thing, Mr. Mu asked the butler to take it apart.

Hearing this, the waiter brought the scissors, and the housekeeper put the gift on the table, and carefully unwrapped the delicate packaging.

Under the package was a sandalwood box. When Mr. Mu saw the box, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The moment he saw the box, he knew it.

Nian Mu didn't know what gift Mu Shaoling had prepared for the old man, so he held his breath and watched silently. This appearance was seen by Cai Xiufen, but he had another interpretation.

Her expression is so serious and tense, there must be something tricky inside.

"The box looks pretty good, but what's inside is uncertain. In order to make people buy these fake antiques, counterfeiters put a lot of effort into the packaging, just to deceive buyers." Cai Xiufen bitterly Said.

Mr. Mu glanced at her, cursing in his heart, ignorance.

You can tell the age from the box alone.

The butler glanced at the old man, and after getting his nod in agreement, he opened the box.

Inside is an inkstone.

The butler carefully picked up the inkstone and handed it to Mr. Mu.

Mr. Mu held it, looked at it carefully, and came to a conclusion, "It's true."

"How could it be true? How much would it really cost?" Cai Xiufen didn't believe it, thinking that the old man said so deliberately to help Nianmu step down.

Mr. Mu snorted coldly, and said: "This is an inkstone from the Qing Dynasty. It has a certain age, but at that time the quality of this inkstone was average and not high-quality, so it is not expensive now. As long as you know how to choose, you can get it cheap." buy it."

When Nianmu saw the inkstone, he gasped. After all, antique inkstones are expensive.

But after hearing the old man's explanation, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Mu Shaoling specially prepared this for himself.

Old people like to collect antiques, especially inkstones.

So he purposely bought an antique inkstone, but he chose the one that was not of high quality. Even if it was said that she personally picked and bought it, it would still be believed.

After all, she is an ordinary person, and she cannot afford expensive inkstones.

When Cai Xiufen heard that it was true, but the price was expensive, she let go of the grievance in her heart a little, and said sarcastically, "It turned out to be a defective product. Professor Nian has a heart."

"Mr. Mu likes inkstones, so I bought this inkstone on purpose. The boss saw that I was giving it to you as a birthday present, so he deliberately discounted it so I can afford it." Nianmu said deliberately, but Cai Xiufen refused to let it go. She felt better, and she made her lose face, "This is already within the range of my ability, I hope you will like it, old man."

"I like it, I like it so much." Mr. Mu said quickly, in order to show his liking for this gift, he deliberately dodged a few times, and then carefully put it back into the box.

"I have collected quite a few inkstones of the same type. Putting this one on, I can just fill up one shelf. Butler, when you get back later, put it away for me, be careful not to bump into each other," the old man instructed.

The butler replied respectfully: "Yes, old man."

Cai Xiufen was very angry by his words, originally wanted to embarrass Nianmu and make her lose face in front of the old man, but she didn't expect to be saved by her rhetoric now.

Mu Shaoling at the side didn't expect that Nian Mu would say such a thing.

In the past, she would put up with Cai Xiufen's temper and make things difficult for her own sake, but now, she will pretend to be good in front of the old man, so that the old man doesn't care about the quality of the inkstone.

interesting……

It seems that in the past three years, she has learned not only medical skills and martial arts, but even her temperament has changed a lot.

More and more guests came, Mu Shaoling said: "Grandpa, there are more guests, you should go in and sit down first."

The old man was old and couldn't stand often, and the work of greeting guests was very tiring, so he let the old man go in and sit down.
