Seeing Shen Ze's firm attitude and no sign of joking at all, Shen Jinzhi suddenly felt overwhelmed.
I should not have provoked him if I had known this.
It's better now.
It's difficult to get off the tiger's back.
In the end, Shen Jinzhi had no choice but to grit her teeth and nod.
She wasn't the type to drag her feet, and since things had gotten to this point, she had no choice but to move on.
The main reason is that Shen Jinzhi also felt that Yang Chunmei was a bit too cowardly.
Since you like Chen Ze, you should take the initiative to fight for him.
She is so good, not only does she not take the initiative to fight for it, but she also tries hard to rub salt into other people's wounds.
Knowing that others are concerned about the ingredients, he still adopts an evasive attitude.
Doesn't this push people further away?
Moreover, this behavior itself is wrong, and Shen Jinzhi also looks down on it.
As a result, she also had some opinions about her cousin Yang Chunmei.
When Shen Ze saw that Shen Jinzhi finally agreed, a smile flashed in his eyes.
He thought about it, and quickly took out a white jade pendant from his inner pocket and put it into Shen Jinzhi's hand.
"Once you accept my heirloom jade pendant, you can never regret it."
"What? A family heirloom jade pendant?"
Shen Jinzhi stared blankly at the jade pendant with the word "Chen" engraved on it in her hand, and suddenly felt it was extremely hot.
Her first reaction was to return the jade pendant.
“No, it’s too expensive, I can’t accept it.
Don't worry, even if you don't accept the jade pendant, I will never regret it.
I, Shen Jinzhi, am not that kind of person."
However, Shen Ze looked at her with a dim gaze.
"But didn't you want to regret it just now?"
This one sentence left Shen Jinzhi speechless.
In order to ease the embarrassment, Shen Jinzhi no longer mentioned the matter of returning the jade pendant and quickly changed the subject.
"Then let's go meet my parents now."
"Let's do it another day. Today's incident was too sudden and I haven't prepared anything."
"What do you need to prepare? Just go there."
Shen Jinzhi was a little puzzled.
Shen Ze smiled faintly and said nothing.
"Let's do it another day. You go back first and I'll tell you when I'm ready."
Even if he were to marry into the Shen family, he couldn't come empty-handed on his first visit.
It's still early now, so you still have time to get something.
Shen Jinzhi was sent by Shen Ze to a place not far from home in a daze.
But Shen Ze walked out of the team again.
Shen Jinzhi subconsciously called out to him.
"Where are you going?"
Shen Ze didn't look back, but the joyful sound came over on the wind.
"Go prepare your own dowry."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jinzhi's face immediately turned red.
"What? Who wants your dowry?"
Just then, Lin Ran came back.
Seeing Lin Ran coming over, Shen Jinzhi tried hard to suppress the heat on her face.
She first looked behind Lin Ran, but did not see Yang Chunmei, and immediately knew what was going on.
But I still couldn't help but express my concern.
"Ranran, is Sister Chunmei okay?"
Yang Chunmei really didn't know how to face Shen Jinzhi, so she went back home first.
But Lin Ran would never say that.
But even if Lin Ran didn't say anything, Shen Jinzhi guessed it.
At that moment, she felt a little guilty and couldn't help but ask Lin Ran.
"Ranran, do you think I shouldn't marry Chen Ze?"
Thinking of Shen Ze, Shen Jinzhi subconsciously kept rubbing the jade pendant in her hand.
This subtle movement naturally attracted Lin Ran's attention.
But when Lin Ran's eyes fell on the jade pendant in Shen Jinzhi's hand, she felt as if struck by lightning and froze in place.
This jade pendant...
Isn’t it the Shen family’s jade pendant?
"Where did you get this jade pendant? Can you show it to me?"
Lin Ran grabbed Shen Jinzhi's hand holding the jade pendant, her eyes anxious and her voice trembling.
Shen Jinzhi didn't know what was wrong with Lin Ran, and she even scratched her hand until it hurt.
But when she met Lin Ran's slightly oppressive gaze, she almost instinctively handed the jade pendant to Lin Ran, but she was a little puzzled.
"It was given to me by Chen Ze. What's wrong, Ranran? Is there something wrong?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Jinzhi suddenly remembered that things like jade pendants could not be taken out openly now.
No wonder Ranran suddenly reacted so strongly!
Thinking of this, she hurriedly reminded Lin Ran.
"Ranran, you must not tell anyone about the jade pendant. You must not let anyone know.
Do you see? I'm going to hide now."
But Lin Ran couldn't hear anything at this time. Her eyes were fixed on the jade pendant in her hand. Her mind was full of the thought that this jade pendant actually belonged to Chen Ze.
But this is clearly the Shen family's jade pendant.
It was made of the same material as his own piece, and also had the word "Chen" engraved on it.
But this one is obviously more ancient and has obviously experienced the baptism of a long time.
The texture is similar to that of my grandfather's jade pendant that I found at the bottom of the cliff last time.
So who is Shen Ze?
Why did I feel inexplicably close to him when I first saw him?
And how did he get the Shen family's jade pendant?
Did you pick it up by chance?
Or where did it come from?
Lin Ran couldn't wait to know the answer, so she immediately grabbed Shen Jinzhi.
"Sister Jinzhi, where is Chen Ze's home? Can you take me to find him?
I have something urgent to ask him."
Seeing Lin Ran's anxious face, Shen Jinzhi became even more puzzled.
"Ranran, what's wrong with you? What's the hurry?"
"Sister Jinzhi, this is urgent. Please take me to find Chen Ze first. I will explain to you later."
"But Shen Ze is not at home now. He is out."
Although Shen Jinzhi didn't understand why Lin Ran would look for Chen Ze for something, she still told the truth.
"Where did he go? When will he be back? Do you know?"
Lin Ran looked disappointed, but still didn't give up.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Jinzhi's mind immediately echoed the words that Shen Ze left before he left, and the heat on her face that had been suppressed with great difficulty surged again.
She didn't know how to answer Lin Ran for a moment.
You can't just say that Chen Ze went to prepare a dowry for yourself, right?
How embarrassing is it to say this?
Under normal circumstances, Lin Ran would definitely notice that something was wrong with Shen Jinzhi and would have tactfully stopped asking further questions.
But at this moment, she just wanted to see Shen Ze quickly and didn't care about so much.
Until the end, Shen Jinzhi still didn't have the courage to tell others about Shen Ze's trip to get the dowry, so she just made up an excuse.
"He might have gone to another brigade or the county town. Anyway, he's out of the brigade, and I don't know when he'll be back."
Hearing that even Shen Jinzhi didn't know where Shen Ze had gone, Lin Ran was immediately disappointed.
Shen Jinzhi was at a loss when she saw this, and could only comfort him:
"Ranran, don't worry. Let's go back and wait. Maybe he will be back soon."
There was really no other way at the moment, so Lin Ran followed Shen Jinzhi's force and went back to the Shen family with her.
Although Shen Jinzhi felt itchy inside like a cat's claws scratching, she didn't dare to ask any more questions when she saw Lin Ran's absent-minded look.
