Chapter 300 How to Dispose
The box looked plain and simple, but I didn't expect that there was a bead the size of a baby's fist lying inside. Its luster was the same as that of a pearl, but it was several times larger than a pearl. When did their family have such a precious treasure?
Tao looked at the beads with nostalgia in her eyes, "Your grandfather found these when he went into the sea to search for pearls before. He has never seen such a big bead, but he did hear pearl divers say that this kind of beads Extremely rare, one piece is worth ten thousand taels.
I originally thought about keeping this thing as an heirloom for our descendants, but later I found that people like us couldn't protect this kind of thing at all. In the past, even a small bead hairpin on your head would be destroyed. I'm just thinking about it, if people know that we have such a treasure in our family, I'm afraid you will be killed.
Our family now has no worries about food and clothing. This land, this house, and the restaurant were all given by your aunt. As long as you work hard, the business of the restaurant will last for a long time. It is much more valuable than these beads!
So grandma thought, it’s better to give this bead to your aunt. Firstly, when she got married, our family was poor and couldn’t even afford a dowry. Secondly, we owe your aunt too much, so if we hide this thing, It's not a good thing, and you may have a problem with your aunt, so you have to try it. "
Tao Shi knew that Jiang Ning was willing to help the Jiang family now because of her, but she would not live for a few more years. When she left, Jiang Ning would grow old, and the relationship between their family and the Yang family would only become weaker and weaker. By giving this thing to the Yang family, the Yang family can always remember the Jiang family's affection.
Jiang Xiaoqiu was stunned for a short time, but quickly calmed down. After hearing Tao's words, she subconsciously looked at Xin Cun, "What do you think?"
Xin Cun nodded at her, "I think what grandma said is right. A man is not guilty of carrying a jade. With the conditions of our family, we can't protect this thing, and it will cause death for us. Why don't we give the thing to my aunt? My aunt is a favored person, someone who can speak well in front of the emperor. No one will offend my aunt for a bead, and the Yang family will always remember our family because of this bead."
Jiang Xiaoqiu breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled, "Okay! Then listen to Grandma and Xin Cun. Tomorrow we will send these beads to the Yang family. They say it is Grandma's dowry for aunt. Now make up for it. I will do it later. Go to Aunt Xu next door to buy some snacks and take them with you tomorrow."
It was dawn the next day.
Jiang Xiaoqiu and Xin Cun took their things to Dongli Villa.
Mr. Li was old and had little sleep. She got up early. When she heard that Jiang Ning, a junior, came to visit her, she immediately invited him to the main room to greet her.
Jiang Xiaoqiu said a few greetings and then took out the things, "Grandma, my grandma said that when my aunt got married, I couldn't give her a dowry. I was already very sorry to my aunt. Yesterday, you replenished the dowry. It is reasonable and reasonable for us to do so. I should make up for my aunt's dowry.
You can keep your things for aunt first. We have to rush to the restaurant to do some business, so we won’t sit down. "
Just as they were about to go out, they bumped into Yang Erdan and his three brothers. They exchanged greetings for a few more words before leaving.
Yang Santie was happy when he saw the things on the table, "Grandma, I just told you that my grandmother refused to ask us to help you. You had to find some excuse to give my grandmother money yesterday. Why don't you ask your cousin immediately?" It’s back, let me see what it is.”
As he spoke, he opened the box with rough hands, and the contents almost rolled out.
Yang Santie's hands shook, and he rushed over to catch the things in a panic. Seeing the silence around him, he subconsciously looked up and saw that everyone else was stunned.
Li was the first to react, pointing to the thing in Yang Santie's hand, and stammeringly asked: "Is this, this, this, this, a pearl?"
Yang Sizhuang rubbed his eyes fiercely, "Grandma, this thing is bigger than a duck egg, how can it be a pearl!"
"What is that? Isn't the Jiang family very poor? How could there be such a treasure?" Even if Li didn't know much about goods, he would know that this was not an ordinary thing.
Yang Santie looked solemn, quickly put the beads into the box, exchanged glances with his two brothers, and said to Li, "Grandma, let's go to Jiang's house and find out where this thing came from."
Mrs. Li clutched her thumping chest and nodded repeatedly, "Go quickly, go quickly." The three Yang brothers went out for a long time before they came back and told Mrs. Li what Tao Shi had said.
Ms. Li didn't know what to say for a moment, "What should I do? Keep it for your mother-in-law?"
Yang Erdan didn't say anything, but Yang Santie shook his head without thinking, "I heard that the Queen's phoenix crown has an east bead, which is bigger than this bead."
“Hiss!” Everyone in the room gasped.
Yang Santie sighed and said: "I will go back to the house and write a letter to my mother-in-law to explain the matter. Then I will find the **** agency to send the things to the capital. It is up to my mother-in-law to decide how to deal with it."
Ms. Li knew without any knowledge that things were completely out of her control. She really had no idea at the moment and she would do whatever her grandson said.
However, she was extremely happy that the Jiang family was willing to give such a treasure to Jiang Ning as a dowry. In addition, she stayed at Dongli Villa with nothing to do, so she and Yang Xiaohua often went to the Jiang family to talk to the Tao family about the relationship between the two families. I got a lot closer to my son.
Yang Santie and Yang Sizhuang had to rush back to Quzhou Academy to study and prepare for the government examination in April, so there was no time to delay.
Yang Laigui’s homework cannot be left behind. Yang Erdan simply asked housekeeper Zhu to inquire about a more reliable private school in Fucheng and send Yang Laigui there. Yang Fugui was unwilling to go to a private school and just wanted to stay and work in the workshop, so Yang Erdan simply took him there himself.
Zhou and Yang Erya worked around Xu Nuoyan making jewelry every day and helped Xu Nuoyan. Xu Nuoyan had his own shop and sold all the noodles he made in the shop, earning a lot of money.
Zhou and Yang Erya helped her, and she was not stingy either. She paid them a certain amount of money based on the work they did every day. Sometimes it was one or two taels a day, and sometimes it was several hundred taels. It was better than the two of them. You can earn more in the workshop.
The two cherished this opportunity to make money and worked harder and harder.
Because of adapting to the life in Fucheng, and because Li wanted to wait for the results of the provincial examination, no one took the initiative to bring her back to Ping'an County.
Quzhou Prefecture in April already has the smell of early summer. When the weather is hot, you can just put on a summer shirt.
Ms. Li was very worried about the exam at this time, so she had to ask Butler Zhu to send her to Fucheng to see her two precious grandchildren.
This is also the first time Mr. Li has visited such a grand academy. The old lady stood outside the gate of the academy and hesitated.
The concierge had noticed her a long time ago, but Li didn't go to ask, and he didn't move either.
At this time, a group of noble princes came towards them. Although they were wearing college robes, they also had jade crowns on their heads and agate sachets on their waists. They looked very wealthy at first glance.
The group of people gradually approached Li.
Li was stunned by their costumes and was stunned.
