Shen Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and wanted to take the things back and not give them back.
But after thinking about it, she had a better idea.
Shen Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Grandpa, some people have never seen the world. Have you never seen the world? This blood ginseng was dug out by Xu Mo in the deep mountains. It is a wild blood ginseng in the true sense. If it is allowed to grow for a few more years, I am afraid it will really become a spirit.
I remember there is an uncle in our family who likes to study these things. Why don’t we let that uncle come and see if this is true or not?”
At this time, a middle-aged man with glasses came out.
He carefully looked at the blood ginseng in the box and said excitedly, "Master, this is definitely real blood ginseng, and its nutritional value is very high."
The old man smiled again.
I was thinking of cutting off a section to make soup tonight.
Shen Jiaojiao glanced at her aunt who was slapped in the face, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, I'll put the blood ginseng away for you and put it next to you. Don't be reluctant to eat it!"
The old man nodded, and because of the blood ginseng, he was a little more polite to Shen Jiaojiao, but he still didn't have any more feelings for her.
After all, she found a country boy and brought shame to the Shen family. He just couldn't swallow this.
Shen Jiaojiao closed the lid of the gift box and placed it next to her grandfather obediently.
But no one saw that she had already done something secretly.
My aunt looked a little embarrassed.
Still don't want Shen Jiaojiao to steal the limelight.
He said, "Even if it is a real blood ginseng, it was not dug up in the mountains, and it didn't cost a penny. It's just that you are lucky.
Qingqing, hurry up and show Grandpa what you brought. Didn’t you say that you spent a long time preparing gifts for Grandpa’s birthday?
Shen Qingqing looked at Zhou Tao expectantly, "Husband, take out your gift quickly."
Zhou Tao stepped forward and opened the gift box.
In full view of the crowd, there was actually a belt inside!
The crowd of onlookers sighed.
The old man's expression changed instantly.
My aunt-in-law was horrified.
Oh my God, what’s wrong with these two kids? On such an important performance day, how could they just give them belts?
This belt has no chance at all compared to blood!
My aunt rushed to the rescue, "Dad, the kids must have made a mistake. They couldn't have prepared only the belt."
If you prepare a belt, just wait to be beaten by the old man!
Zhou Tao said confidently, "We are not mistaken. This belt is prepared for Grandpa."
My aunt was frightened on the spot.
Seeing the anger on the old man's face, Zhou Tao said, "Grandpa, listen to me first. This piece of leather can't represent our feelings. I have prepared other gifts for you."
Zhou Tao and Shen Qingqing looked at each other, their eyes full of pride.
Zhou Tao said, "Grandpa, I have two courtyard houses and I plan to give them to you for your old age."
After these words were spoken, my aunt-in-law could really be described as crying with joy.
She was really scared just now.
But I didn’t expect there are courtyard houses in Zhoutao!
As expected, he is a descendant of the royal family.
It's just that giving away two sets is a bit too much.
Forget it. You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. I’ll give this courtyard to my grandfather. When he dies, I’ll return it to him.
The old man burst into laughter.
"Haha, Zhou Tao, my dear grandson-in-law, you are so thoughtful!"
All he needs now is a place to live in his old age.
Although the house was a nice place to live, it was crowded and noisy, and he wanted some quiet.
If he had a courtyard house, he could live there alone in his old age.
Then he can find an old lady to take care of his daily life, and his life in old age will be perfect.
The old man quickly asked, "Zhou Tao, where is the courtyard?"
"It's in Maozi Hutong in Dongcheng District, not far from here."
The old man was even happier, as that place was simply the ideal place for him to retire!
Maozi Hutong has a good location, a good surrounding environment, and the courtyards are well preserved.
It’s really good!
Seeing that the old man was so excited that he started to talk nonsense, the aunt-in-law quickly continued, "Dad, Maozi Hutong is not far from here. Since the courtyard is the children's favorite, why don't we take our relatives to have a look and let them get to know the place."
The old man immediately made the decision, "Okay, let's go now."
The old man was very excited, and immediately walked briskly towards Maozi Hutong with his relatives.
The eldest aunt's family walked at the back. Shen Qingqing looked at Shen Jiaojiao provocatively, "Let's go! Let's go and take a look together. Let your man see what a courtyard house looks like! After all, country people don't have the opportunity to see these things. Let him broaden his horizons! Haha..."
Shen Qingqing was too lazy to pretend to be a White Lotus Green Tea fan, she just wanted to suppress Shen Jiaojiao.
Shen Jiaojiao had dared to humiliate her just now, so she was going to get revenge with interest.
My aunt's family also went out.
Shen Jiaojiao and Xu Mo were the only ones left in the room.
Shen Jiaojiao held Xu Mo's hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, I always let you get attacked, and I can't resist them completely.
After all, they are the elders, so they can only take advantage of you verbally."
Xu Mo shook his head in a good-tempered manner, "I am the one who should be sorry. It is because of my countryman identity that you are excluded and targeted. It is because of me that when others mention Shen Jiaojiao, they laugh at her for finding a country bumpkin. Although I know you don't mind these, I still can't bear it and don't want you to be looked down upon by others.
Wife, give me a little more time. I will make sure that everyone changes their view of country people. When people mention Shen Jiaojiao, they will know that she married a very remarkable husband.
Wife, I will definitely make those who don’t think highly of us envy you and us.”
Shen Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Well, let's work hard together."
"good."
Xu Mo pondered for a while and said, "Wife, let's go to Maozi Hutong too. I always feel that the house Zhou Tao mentioned is very familiar."
Shen Jiaojiao joked, "Could it be the two courtyard houses you bought yesterday?"
Although it was just a joke, when they arrived at their destination, they realized that their joke had come true.
No one knew who had pried open the locks of the two locked courtyard houses.
At this moment, Zhou Tao was taking the Shen family to visit the courtyard.
