[Rebirth, Military Marriage, 1980s, Satisfying Revenge Story]
In her previous life, Jiang Xia feared and loathed Lu Yuanting the most. She thought he was rough, fierce, unrefined, lacking the...
"Well, Comrade Jiang is very capable. I got a great bargain." Lu Yuanting looked at Jiang Xia and curled the corners of his lips and hummed.
Jiang Xia listened to what Lu Yuanting said and felt a little uncomfortable with the praise.
Feng Changdi also spoke at this time. She looked at Jiang Xia with a smile and put her hand on Jiang Xia's hand affectionately.
"Xia Xia, you don't know, your grandmother also has a treasure, you don't know, didn't your grandmother say that she would give you a family heirloom as a dowry? That thing must be it, you take it." Feng Changdi said.
"Your grandmother put it under the mattress."
Feng Changdi saw this thing by chance before. It was a jade pendant in the shape of a small gourd inlaid with gold. Although she had not received much education, she still knew that jade and gold were valuable.
Originally, she wanted to ask Old Lady Jiang to give this treasure to her son Jinbao. Both gold and jade can suppress evil spirits and serve as a charm for the baby to wear. However, Old Lady Jiang, who always loved Jiang Jinbao, refused to give it to her. She was so stingy that she hid it and wouldn't let her tell anyone about it.
Later, she asked Old Lady Jiang to give the jade pendant to her daughter Hongjiao as a dowry when she gets married, but Old Lady Jiang refused.
He hid it in a mysterious way, and said that this thing must not be worn out, must not be seen by others, must not be given to the eldest brother, and must not be shown to Jiang Weijia. He even reminded him several times that Jiang Weijia must not be allowed to handle this thing and must not take it out.
Those who didn't know would think that the jade pendant of Old Lady Jiang was stolen. It was so shameful to show it in public. In her opinion, Old Lady Jiang didn't want to give the thing to her and wanted to keep it for herself. She made up these stories. If she couldn't give it to her eldest brother's family, then why didn't she give it to their family?
Anyway, she figured it out. Since Old Lady Jiang was not going to give it to her and her family couldn't keep it, then Old Lady Jiang couldn't ask for it. Who asked Old Lady Jiang to tell her about her radio? If she wanted to give her something, then she should give it all.
"No!" Old Mrs. Jiang's face changed and she was very nervous, but she was old and her legs and feet were not flexible. She didn't have time to stop Jiang Xia. Before she walked halfway, Jiang Xia had already walked to the bedside.
Following Feng Changdi's words, Jiang Xia reached under Old Lady Jiang's mattress and felt around. There was indeed a bulge under the cotton wool, as if something was stuffed inside. When she opened it, she saw that inside was an antique hairpin and jade ring that she had seen in her previous life, wrapped in cloth.
There was another thing that was wrapped in several layers of handkerchief by Old Lady Jiang. Jiang Xia opened it.
Inside was something that she had seen for the first time in both her previous life and this life, a jade pendant. And it was no ordinary jade pendant, this one was made of jade inlaid with gold, and was very valuable. It looked like a small gourd. She didn't know much about jade, but she could tell that it was of very good quality and felt soft to the touch.
ă±—There is a surname written on this jade pendant, Jiang, the Jiang of Jiangcheng.
The moment he saw this thing, Jiang Xia was a little surprised. His first reaction was that this was an object that should not appear in the Jiang family. The Jiang family was not bad. Both Old Mrs. Jiang and Old Mr. Jiang were from foreign countries and had city household registration. Their identity background was also clean, and their ancestors had been poor peasants for generations.
This cut off the ancestral wealth, so what treasures could be passed down? If the kingfisher-inlaid hairpin and jade ring were probably bought by Mr. Jiang at a bargain price, others would not know their value. After all, they were old, and the jade ring looked gray. Those who didn't know much might think it was just a stone ring with a unique color.
But this gourd-shaped jade pendant inlaid with gold is definitely not a bargain. It is inlaid with gold, and gold is hard currency in every era. How could anyone not know it is valuable?
So the question is, how did this jade pendant appear in the Jiang family?
