Cao Baojiang walked to the back and took out a cloth bag with a waterproof layer like oil paper on the inside.
He took out five bundles of big unity and left them for Lian Xiaomin.
"Xiao Min, Grandpa Cao will give you all the money. You can't spend it anyway. Also, since you don't want my box of gold bars, I'll leave this necklace to you as a token of my appreciation."
Seeing the other person casually stuffing this heavy diamond necklace into her hand...
Even though Lian Xiaomin had seen many pieces of jewelry, she couldn't help but be stunned at this moment.
This, the biggest main diamond on it is so luxurious, it looks like a mahjong tile... and the whole necklace is strung with countless diamonds, all of them are pigeon egg level!
My little heart was beating wildly.
I was thinking, you call this a “little token of your appreciation”?
I felt a slight cool touch on my palms... It was really heavy. I weighed it and found that this big bunch must be more than two kilograms!
Lian Xiaomin had only seen it in Hollywood movies in her previous life, a Cartier diamond necklace that weighed 2.6 kilograms and was worth 20 million US dollars in 2023...
But now there is such a line in front of me, it’s over, ah~ my eyes are blinded, and I see double...
Cao Baojiang was amused when he saw the little girl’s eyes wide open and her mouth opened into an O shape.
He patted her head and said, "This main stone is over 130 carats, it's quite heavy..."
"I bought this from an Indian merchant thirty years ago. He fled here because of something, and I saved his life by chance..."
"... Later, the other party wanted to sell the necklace for some money, so I bought it directly."
"It was a time of turmoil. No matter how valuable something was, I had to sell it. The other party was grateful for my life-saving grace... I also took advantage of it at the time. I bought it at a good price and gave it to my wife..."
"I am now alone, and I have no descendants who need it as an heirloom. I will leave it to you as a token of my gratitude for saving me, and also as a memorial."
Lian Xiaomin knew that the old man took some things with him before leaving Caojia Village.
In addition to the gold bars given by Pei Zhaojia, he must have some assets of his own.
After all, he had been hanging out with the Pei family in Shanghai for so many years since he was a teenager.
Yesterday, he also looked at detached houses and wanted to buy one in Mid-Levels, near Pei's house, but Zhou Qitai said there were none available at the moment.
I can only look for a real estate agent again. There will definitely be one, but there is no need to rush. I can just live in Pei’s house first.
The old man also had good intentions. He knew that the Pei family villa was not big. What's more important, he was used to living alone in a quiet place, which would be more comfortable. Anyway, if he bought another house, he would choose one that was close.
"Grandpa Cao, this is too valuable. You should keep it for yourself..."
Lian Xiaomin was deeply moved. This antique necklace was so precious.
It’s not just the economic value of diamonds, it’s also history and stories.
It's human touch.
The other person shook his head, with a smile on his face. "I still have a few things. I was really tired when I was swimming... Fortunately, the lifebuoy is really useful! Hehe, don't worry! Put them away quickly. I'm leaving first."
Old Master Cao waved his hand generously, walked out the door. Wow, what an old man who spends money like water.
Lian Xiaomin threw the big unity on the sofa, picked up the diamond necklace weighing more than two kilograms, and followed with her slender legs.
"Hey, Grandpa Cao, do you need a granddaughter?"
Cao Baojiang walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned his head to look over, and for a moment, his eyes turned red.
"Xiaomin, are you serious? Are you really willing to... be my goddaughter?"
Lian Xiaomin bared her white teeth and smiled brightly: "I am willing. My parents and grandparents are all gone. If you are willing, you will be my grandfather in the future."
Old Master Cao and she have similar personalities and they have always gotten along well. He treats her so sincerely. A person like him deserves her respect in the future. She is really happy to have another elder.
"Okay, okay, okay! This godparent has been confirmed, grandpa is so happy... You, little fairy, no, little heroine, will be my granddaughter from now on~"
"Hey, Zhao Jia, did you hear me? I'm going to have a wedding banquet tomorrow! It's tomorrow night. I'll ask Yao Hui to book the best restaurant for me..."
Pei Zhaojia was walking in the yard, admiring the flowers and scenery, waiting for them to finish talking before leaving. When he heard this, he came over happily.
"Brother Baojiang, congratulations, this granddaughter is so enviable. I...I won't compete with you."
Pei Yaohui and others also came over and said happily that they would book a restaurant in the afternoon. Anyway, there were twelve of us, so a whole large private room would be enough.
We all came here from the other side, connected by a string of lifebuoys. Tomorrow we will celebrate for surviving the disaster!
They walked down the mountain, talking and laughing all the way.
Lian Xiaomin and Sun Xuefeng returned to the house.
She took the opportunity to use her mental power to place some new four-piece sets and pillows, summer sheets, and winter thick quilts through the doors in the large closets of several bedrooms.
You can let Sun Xuefeng take one away and bring it to his house so he can use it at night.
He didn't go into the room, but looked around and opened the wardrobe, just assuming that it was already there, perhaps prepared by Manager Zhou.
You'll only be staying for a few days, so there's no need to make special arrangements.
Lian Xiaomin went into the bedroom and put the Five Thousand Great Unity Coins and the giant diamond antique necklace into the space.
