"This jade pendant is not simple. I'll send it to Lao Zheng to take a look. He is an expert in antique appraisal."
As he spoke, he took photos of the jade pendant from various angles and sent them to an old friend who was quite authoritative in the antique appraisal world.
It wasn't long before the old friend's reply came.
The moment he saw the reply, Mr. Fang's eyes widened and his face was full of shock.
Father Fang took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "This pair of jade pendants is a rare treasure handed down from the Qing Dynasty royal family!"
"Back then, to celebrate the birth of the little prince, the royal family summoned top craftsmen, carefully selected the finest jade, and spent countless hours meticulously carving it. This carving technique, which combined all the most advanced techniques of the time, has long been lost."
"Later, as dynasties changed and the world changed, this pair of jade pendants left the palace and passed through the hands of several dignitaries. With each owner, the family became more prosperous and peaceful."
"There was once a prominent figure in the capital. His family suffered a sudden misfortune, and their fortune declined. After he accidentally obtained this pair of jade pendants, not only did his family turn misfortune into good fortune, but their business also prospered, their career went smoothly, and their family became even more prosperous."
"It can be seen that the beautiful meaning carried by this jade pendant has always protected those who own it."
When the whole family heard this, they were all stunned.
They never imagined that the full-moon gift sent by Gu Youran would be such a precious and meaningful treasure.
Recalling that Gu Youran rescued Fang Yan and the child.
Now that such a thoughtful gift has been given, the family's gratitude towards Gu Youran is surging like a tide.
Fang Yan's eyes were slightly red, and she said with a choked voice: "Dr. Gu's friendship to us is so great. We really don't know how to repay her."
Mayor Su nodded with deep feeling and said, "Yes, not only is she an excellent doctor who saved you and your child at a critical moment, but she is also kind-hearted. It's hard to find a friend like her even with a lantern."
Father Fang said solemnly with a look of emotion, "From now on, we must treat Dr. Gu well. We must never forget this kindness!"
…
The other side.
Shi Heng rushed back to Jinggui Huating in a hurry. As soon as he stepped into the house, he went straight to his mother's room.
My mother was leaning against the head of the bed, and the half of her face that was originally covered with pus-filled blisters had undergone an astonishing change.
Thanks to Gu Youran’s homemade beauty cream, her skin is becoming whiter, tenderer and more delicate day by day.
The past is gradually reappearing clearly.
After two careful acupuncture treatments, my mother became more conscious and her eyes showed a long-lost clarity.
When his mother saw Shi Heng, her eyes instantly filled with love. She grabbed his hand and said, "Heng, you're finally here."
"Today, my mind is like a floodgate, and things from the past keep coming out, especially those naughty things you did when you were a child."
Shi Heng was slightly startled, then sat down beside his mother's bed and said, "Mom, what did you remember? Tell me about it."
His mother patted his hand gently and began to talk excitedly, "Do you remember? When you were seven years old, you insisted on making a kite and flying it. In the end, the kite didn't fly, but instead trampled on all the flowers in our garden."
"Your dad was so angry that he wanted to beat you, but I protected you. You hid behind me at that time, and your eyes looked scared and aggrieved."
Shi Heng couldn't help laughing as he recalled the past. "Mom, you still remember this so clearly. At that time, I thought I could definitely make an amazing kite, but I didn't expect it to backfire."
The mother smiled, her eyes full of tenderness. "When you were little, you always had those strange ideas and couldn't sit still for a moment. But now I think about it, they are all beautiful memories."
She sighed softly and said with emotion, "Ah Heng, this time it's all thanks to Youran. If it weren't for her, I really don't know what would have become of Mom's face and body."
Shi Heng nodded vigorously, "Mom, I know. Youran has sacrificed so much for our family. Not only is she an excellent doctor, she's also a kind person."
"If it weren't for her, I can't imagine what this family would become."
His mother looked at him with relief and said, "Yes, such a good girl is hard to find even with a lantern. You must cherish her and don't let her down."
Shi Heng listened to his mother's words, feeling both moved and emotional.
He secretly vowed that he and Gu Youran would protect this family together and help his mother recover completely.
However, my thoughts changed.
Shi Heng recalled that Gu Youran mentioned having a baby in the afternoon, but he avoided the topic several times and did not respond to her.
His face suddenly changed and he questioned himself with regret.
What were you thinking at that time?
Why did it hurt her so much?
When I think of Gu Youran, I might feel sad because of this.
He felt as if he was pierced by thousands of needles, and the pain was so severe that he could hardly breathe.
He blamed himself for being slow and not knowing how to cherish her feelings.
Her expression of disappointment and sadness cut through his heart like a sharp knife.
This escape was like a thorn piercing his heart, and the guilt enveloped him like a haze, almost suffocating him.
I finally waited for my mother to fall asleep peacefully.
He couldn't wait to walk out of the room and took out his cell phone.
His fingers trembled slightly with anxiety, and he dialed Gu Youran's number quickly and almost in a panic.
On the other end of the phone, the monotonous ringing continued, but no one answered.
Every ring of the bell was like a hammer hitting his heart.
Shi Heng's brows were tightly twisted into a knot.
An ominous premonition came over me.
He could no longer endure this torment, and without thinking, he got up and rushed out of the villa.
I just want to find her as soon as possible, tell her my regrets and ask for her forgiveness.
