Transmigrating to the 60s: I Have a Capital Hukou

Jian Shu obtained a spatial dimension. Having read countless novels, she immediately hoarded supplies, preparing for transmigration or the apocalypse.

A few years later, Jian Shu had already ...

Chapter 455 Meeting Gift

After sighing inwardly, Gu Zhan composed himself, looked at Jian Shu, pointed at the box in front of her and said, "Please accept this bracelet. Consider it a gift from your aunt."

I guess this is what she expected. How happy would she be if she were still here?

Jian Shu quickly retracted his hand, shook his head and refused, "Uncle Gu, this is too valuable. I can't accept it."

Although she didn't know much about jade, she could tell the value of some good things at a glance.

This bracelet is definitely worth a fortune and is definitely top-notch jadeite. Moreover, from what Gu Zhan said, this bracelet is quite old and is a complete antique.

That value is even more immeasurable.

She was embarrassed to accept such a valuable item.

"Take it. This is also your aunt's expectation. During those years, she treated you as her own daughter and loved you the most."

"Now that you and Mingjing are together, we are both my daughter and my daughter-in-law. Who else can I give this bracelet to if not you? There is no one more worthy than you."

Seeing Jian Shu still hesitant, Gu Zhan suddenly smiled, "Be good, be obedient, take it. You can pass it on to her granddaughter in the future, right?"

Jianshu was stunned at first, but after he figured out the relationship, his face turned red.

My aunt's granddaughter, isn't that...

"Uncle Gu!" she shouted with some embarrassment, feeling her cheeks getting hot.

"Hahahaha - I can still call him Uncle Gu now, but I'll have to change that in a few months." Gu Zhan laughed heartily, in a very good mood.

But seeing Jianshu's face getting redder and redder, and more and more embarrassed and angry, he quickly said, "Okay, okay, Uncle Gu, I won't say anymore. I won't say anymore. Didn't you want to see that brat's childhood photos? Put the bracelet away quickly, and I'll continue telling you about that brat's embarrassing childhood stories."

Gu Zhan didn't care about the relationship between father and son at all, and without hesitation brought up his son's embarrassing incident to change the subject.

Jianshu touched his hot cheeks, paused for a moment, and finally accepted the bracelet.

"Hide this thing well when you get back. Don't let anyone see it. Don't tell anyone except that brat." Seeing her accept it, Gu Zhan said with satisfaction in his heart.

This thing is good, but in this day and age, the better things are, the more likely they are to suffer misfortune.

This was also the reason why he hesitated before.

After thinking about it, I took it out.

Firstly, since Jianshu was visiting as a future daughter-in-law for the first time, shouldn't she give a gift? For a daughter-in-law and daughter who had been waiting for so many years, you can't just give her something to get rid of her.

Secondly, this thing isn't that big, so as long as you don't deliberately show off your wealth, you won't be afraid of being discovered. As for searching the house? Without solid evidence, who would dare to go to the Jian family? Are they tired of living? These old guys are not dead yet!

Jian Shu knew his concerns and nodded, "I understand, Uncle Gu. I will hide it and won't tell anyone else."

Too many lice won’t itch, too many debts won’t worry.

As she hid more things, she no longer felt anxious.

Anyway, once she stuffed it into the space, no one would be able to find it except her. Even if someone went to her house and dug three feet deep, she could guarantee that they would not be able to catch her with any evidence.

Jianshu was a steady child, and Gu Zhan was very confident in her. If it were someone with a big mouth and couldn't keep secrets, he would never give this to her.

Of course, if Jianshu really had this kind of personality, he wouldn’t be so likable, and he wouldn’t be where he is today.

Smiling as he watched Jianshu put the things away, Gu Zhan took out something else from his pocket and handed it over.

"Here, take it. This is the red envelope Uncle Gu gave you."

There is a thick stack of things wrapped in red paper. Just by looking at the shape, you can guess what is inside.

——Great unity.

Judging from the thickness, it must be several hundred yuan.

"Uncle Gu, you have already given me the bracelet. I can't accept this." Jian Shu refused repeatedly.

The bracelet alone is worth a lot of money, and when you add the red envelope in front of you, this gift is so generous that it is really shocking.

Not to mention the bracelet, the betrothal gift for marrying a wife might not be this high, so how could she feel comfortable accepting it?

"Hey, how can they be the same? That bracelet was given to you by your aunt, and this red envelope is a gift from me to you. How can they be confused? Be good and accept it! Or do you only like your aunt's gift and not mine?" Gu Zhan said.

Jian Shu showed helplessness, "Uncle Gu, you and Auntie are husband and wife, how can you distinguish between yours and hers? Aren't they all the same?" When a couple gives gifts, how can one person give one? Thanks.

"I don't care about other people's families, but this is the way it is in our family. She gives hers and I give mine. Since you accepted what she gave you, you have to accept what I give you as well." Gu Zhan said like a child.

Jianshu: "..." If you didn't know, you might think it was some kind of artillery shell.

"Well, since it's such a kind gesture from you, I'll respectfully obey." She sighed slightly and accepted it.

What else can you do if you don’t accept it? Seeing that Gu Zhan has already made up his mind to give it to you, you can’t refuse it. Do you really want your elders to beg you to accept it?

That doesn't make sense.

He stood up and took the red envelope from Gu Zhan's hand with both hands. It was a thick stack and felt very heavy in his hand.

"Thank you, Uncle Gu." Jianshu thanked him.

"That's right." Gu Zhan nodded with satisfaction. "When your sister-in-law first came to visit, I also gave her a red envelope. This is our family tradition. You can accept it without worry."

After hearing this, Jian Shu breathed a sigh of relief, but he also heard the subtext in his words.

There are red envelopes for everyone, so you don’t have to worry or feel embarrassed.

So, what about the bracelet?

He didn't mention it, and Jianshu didn't ask any further questions.

After receiving the red envelope, Jianshu did not open it to read it, but put it in his pocket together with the bracelet.

Fortunately, the pockets of the coat are big and can hold a lot of things. If the pockets are as small as those of women's clothing in later generations, which are so stingy that people have to wonder if the merchants want to save fabric, not to mention red envelopes, even boxes cannot be stuffed in.

After packing everything, Jian Shu deliberately patted his coat pocket and said exaggeratedly, "I got so many things from Uncle Gu in just one trip today. If I come a few more times, I'm afraid I'll empty all of Uncle Gu's savings."

"Hahaha——" Gu Zhan laughed heartily. "Don't worry, your uncle Gu's family is very well-off. I'm not afraid of being emptied out by you. Come more often in the future. I'm waiting for the day when you empty my family's wealth."

As an old man, he became more shrewd. It was obvious to him that Jianshu wanted him to stop giving gifts in the future.

But for him, his food, clothing, housing and transportation were all provided by the government, and he had no money to spend on a regular basis. These things were external to the body, and they could not be brought with him when he was born and could not be taken with him when he died. To him, more or less made no difference.

As for his things, he can do whatever he wants with them.

He is happy to give it to his favorite junior!

No one else can comment on it.
