Chapter 892 Tenth Update
Han Ting's eyes widened.
Why is it so difficult for him to get a pair of limited edition sneakers on his birthday?
Is this the disparity in the world?
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Chenxing asked in a low voice when he saw that he looked unhappy.
"Chen Xing, I want to ask you, what did my dad, second uncle, young uncle, and grandpa give you on your birthday?"
"My eldest uncle gave me computers and cameras, my second uncle gave me Lego and figurines, and my youngest uncle mostly gave me brand-name clothes and bags..."
Little Brother Jiang counted them one by one.
Han Ting: “…”
Although it’s not as good as my sister’s treatment, it’s still much better than his!
"Chen Xing," Han Ting said suddenly, his expression serious, "Don't you think this is problematic?"
"Huh? What's the problem?"
"Sister's gift is better than ours."
"Because my sister is a girl, and girls should be raised in wealth, so her gifts should be better than ours." Jiang Xiaodi said this confidently without blushing.
After hearing this, Han Ting was a little confused: "Is that so?"
"Yes! It's okay for us boys to have a hard time. As the saying goes, if God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his heart and mind suffer and his muscles and bones work hard. So, it's good for us to be a little tired and suffer. But my sister can't do that. She's a girl, and we must give her the best, understand?"
"Oh," Han Ting nodded, like a newbie being taught new knowledge, "What you said... seems to make sense."
"Trust me, if you remove the 'seem', it makes perfect sense."
"Well! From now on, I'll leave the best to you..."
Little Tingting, who was successfully brainwashed by Jiang Chenxing, the super sister-con who said "I'm the best at eating and I love my sister the most", willingly gave up the limited edition sneakers he had always dreamed of.
Jiang Xiaodi also prepared a gift for Jiang Fuyue.
"Sister, take a look at mine, do you like it?"
Jiang Fuyue opened the box and found out that it was a pair of Vacheron Constantin couple watches.
Among all the people who gave gifts, Jiang Chenxing was the only one who took Xie Dingyuan into consideration.
"Thank you, it's beautiful." Jiang Fuyue touched his head and now needed to raise her hand to reach him.
Jiang Chenxing is a grown man of about 1.8 meters in height. When his sister touched his head, his face instantly turned red like a rosy cloud and he became shy like an autistic little flower.
Jiang Fuyue took out the watch and put it on Xie Dingyuan personally.
Then she asked him to help her put it on.
The two people's wrists are placed side by side, and they are a perfect match.
Han Ting was shocked again.
He pulled Jiang Xiaodi aside and asked, "Did you buy that watch?"
"Yes! Uncle Wu brought it back for me from the store when he was on a business trip abroad. Does it look good?"
"It looks good, sure," Han Ting scratched his head, "but it should be very expensive, right?"
Vacheron Constantin, his father also has one.
Jiang Chenxing: "Not bad. The two watches together convert to RMB and are worth exactly 660,000. Isn't that a very auspicious number?"
Han Ting nodded hesitantly: "Auspicious... It's very auspicious... But where did you get so much money? Did my aunt and uncle give it to you?"
"No, I didn't spend my parents' money. I made all this from live streaming and filming commercials."
"Holy crap—this is so much?"
Han Ting felt that he was hit hard. His sister had someone to give her gifts, and his brother could afford to give her gifts, but what about him?
There were no gifts to receive and no money to buy any.
Jiang Chenxing: "Actually, this is not much. If I had an endorsement, it would be much higher."
Han Ting looked confused: "..." Why is my whole family so rich, but I am the only one so poor that I have to pick my feet?
Jiang Chenxing: "Brother, if you want to make money, it's easy to make it."
"Me? How do I make money?"
"You know how to play chess! I heard that in some competitions, winning a single match can earn you tens to hundreds of thousands, or even millions. You're so good, you'll definitely win!"
"Really? You can make money by playing chess?" Han Ting was a little confused.
"Yes!" Jiang Chenxing immediately took out his phone, found a webpage, and showed it to him, "These, these, and these... all of them."
Han Ting seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
Who would have thought that Han Ting, the talented young man who would be invincible in the chess world in the future, initially embarked on the path of competitive fighting just because he wanted to make money?
"By the way, why did you buy two watches that are so expensive? Today is my sister's birthday, not Professor Xie's."
Jiang Xiaodi: "Sis likes him, so I like him too. Giving him a gift will make Sis happier, and that will make me happier too."
"Tsk, you love the whole house and the whole family too?"
Jiang Chenxing nodded: "Yes."
He's quite honorable.
After Jiang Fuyue’s birthday gift was delivered, it was Xie Dingyuan’s turn at home.
He prepared gifts for every elder and junior.
The gifts given to Han Qishan and Qin Yuanchen were two pieces of golden nanmu wood of excellent quality. They could pick up the goods directly at the lumberyard using the QR code.
After looking at the photos, the two old men smiled with satisfaction.
Coincidentally, the gifts given to Shi Qingzhi and Han Yunru were also jadeite, but not necklaces, but a pair of mother-daughter bracelets.
Han Yunru, who originally didn't like jadeite very much, was also very satisfied with this bracelet.
"Mom, does it look good?" As she spoke, she revealed the delicate look of a little girl that she herself had not even noticed.
Shi Qingzhi's heart suddenly warmed. After twenty years of separation, the rift between mother and daughter could not be eliminated easily, and the regrets that had already been caused could not be made up for easily.
Sometimes, Shi Qingzhi didn't even know how to get along with her daughter who was lost and found again. It was as if the intimate scenes between mother and daughter in their childhood had become faded photos, hanging dully on each other's memory wall.
The same is true for Han Yunru. Whenever she is with her mother, she always feels shy, helpless, and unable to let go.
Time has stolen the warmth they once had, turning them into strangers with the closest blood ties.
As soon as Xie Dingyuan gave the bracelet to her, the mother and daughter put it on each other's hands, and the sound of jingling and donging accompanied with laughter and joy...
The distance between mother and daughter seemed to be infinitely shortened.
Shi Qingzhi: "Ayuan is thoughtful."
Han Yunru looked at her future son-in-law, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.
"Cough!" Jiang Da coughed heavily, hinting to his wife to be more reserved and not be bribed so easily!
As a result, Han Yunru ignored him.
Jiang Da: “…”
"Uncle, this set of Liuchuan knives is for you. Good knives go well with good cooking." Xie Dingyuan looked at him with a smile and handed the gift to him.
Jiang Da tried his best not to let his eyes fall on it, but as soon as he heard the words "Yanagawa Knives", his heart rate began to fluctuate.
Yanagawa Knives?
Is it that custom knife brand that is hard to come by?
Seeing that he was still stunned, Han Yunru quickly nudged Jiang Da's elbow and whispered, "What are you doing? People are so polite, and you are still putting on airs. That's too much!"
Jiang Da swallowed his saliva: You asked me to take it, you can’t blame me for not being able to resist the temptation!
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt cheerful and all the burdens were gone.
Jiang Da took it, put it on the table, blew into his palms, rubbed his hands, and then uncovered the top layer of velvet.
I saw more than a dozen sharp and shiny knives lined up in order from large to small: slicing knives, boning knives, chopping knives, fruit knives...
The word "Yanagawa" is written in golden regular script on each hilt.
This, this, this... is simply Jiang Da’s dream sword!
When he was young, he could only watch his master use it. It was just a kitchen knife, not a complete set, but it was already regarded as a treasure.
Later, he started his own business and sold pancakes. He rarely used a knife, so he didn't even dare to think about it.
Now that he was making money and had a bulging wallet, Jiang Da could no longer control that thought and began to stir.
Unfortunately, the knives of the Yanagawa family are purely handmade and custom-made, and are priceless. Not to mention the high price, even if you want to make an appointment, you have to wait in line for three or four years, and you may not even get it in the end!
Jiang Da almost gave up.
Unexpectedly, unexpectedly - Xie Dingyuan actually gave him a complete set!
"It's so beautiful! This steel blade is different from other knives. Just listen to the sound..."
clang!
Jiang Da caressed each knife lovingly, the look in his eyes being the same as when he looked at his wife and children.
Full of emotion.
"Thank you! This set of knives... I, I have wanted it for a long time. How did you buy it?" Jiang Da, a man who is not good at speaking, actually took the initiative to talk to Xie Dingyuan?
Rare! Very rare!
"I know the young master of Liuchuan Knives. He happened to have a reservation number from three years ago, but the person who made the reservation canceled it at the last minute..."
Xie Dingyuan took on this title.
But even so, it took me two full months to get this set of knives.
Han Yunru looked at Jiang Da's excitement and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Shi Qingzhi stood beside her daughter and whispered in her ear, "I think Yueyue's boyfriend is really capable..."
