Ji Zhinan said, "Hello, Grandpa Qin. My name is Ji Zhinan. It's a pleasure to meet you. This is a small gift I would like to give you."
After saying that, she handed over the small bag she was carrying.
"Yi Bei's wife." Old Master Qin quickly stood up, looking at the bag Ji Zhinan offered, and declined.
"Why did you bring a gift? Take it back immediately."
"Grandpa Qin, this is a token of our appreciation from Yi Bei and me. Please accept it."
"You child..."
After a bit of pushing and shoving, Old Master Qin couldn't resist and accepted the gift.
The old man looked Ji Zhinan over carefully and liked him very much.
"Okay, she's pretty, sensible and polite, she's a good child."
Ji Zhinan smiled modestly: "Thank you, Grandpa Qin."
"You brat." After praising Ji Zhinan, Old Master Qin turned his gaze to Qin Yu: "You're about the same age as Yi Bei. Look at him, at least he knows how to get a girlfriend and settle down. But you, all you do is work all day long. I don't even have a glimpse of my granddaughter-in-law!"
Qin Yu was caught in the crossfire for no reason, and he wore a pitiful expression that seemed to say, "Please spare me."
"Grandpa, let's eat first."
Grandpa Qin glared angrily: "You child, you deliberately change the subject whenever this comes up!"
Qin Yu ignored the old man's words and instead said to Gu Yibei and Ji Zhinan, "What are you standing for? Sit down, quick."
Then he called out to the kitchen, "Auntie, hurry up and serve the food!"
The aunt brought out the prepared dishes, and everyone sat down at the table. Only then did Grandpa Qin reluctantly stop the topic.
Perhaps because his grandson was useless and hadn't found him a wife, Old Master Qin liked Ji Zhinan very much and kept talking to him at the dinner table.
For example, how old is she? Does she have any siblings? Are there any nice girls around who she could introduce to Qin Yu as girlfriends, blah blah blah...
Grandpa Qin and Grandpa Ji were about the same age, so Ji Zhinan treated him with great respect and politeness. Her earnest and serious demeanor was very endearing to the elderly man.
Their coming over for dinner today is secondary; that matter is the main thing.
However, seeing how excited Grandpa Qin was, Ji Zhinan didn't know how to interrupt and ask a question.
Gu Yibei took in her slightly embarrassed expression, picked up some of Ji Zhinan's favorite dishes, and casually spoke.
"Grandpa Qin, the gift I'm giving you is a jade pendant that I obtained from an auction in the United States. I think you'll like it."
Old Master Qin was known for his love of jade, and his eyes lit up immediately when he heard that Gu Yibei had given him a jade pendant as a gift.
"Really? I need to check it out right away."
After saying that, he couldn't even eat anymore. He put his chopsticks down on the table and hurriedly asked someone to bring over the small bag that Ji Zhinan had given him.
Inside the small bag was a large velvet jewelry box. When opened, a stunningly beautiful jade pendant was indeed inside.
Old Master Qin was completely captivated by the jade pendant. He held it carefully in both hands, staring intently at it, studying it seriously.
"What fine jade! What a fine jade!"
After staring at it for a while, Old Master Qin praised it.
"This piece of jade seems to be the same type as that phoenix jade pendant!"
The old man quickly had someone bring over the box from his study desk, which contained Ji Zhinan's phoenix jade pendant.
A careful comparison reveals that the two do indeed share a 60-70% resemblance.
However, they differ in size and the patterns carved on them.
