Chapter 141 Big Appetite

When Bai Minhua heard Du Ruo say that the thing was not in her hand, she glanced towards the window. The meaning was very obvious: there was no difference between whether it was in Yuan Tingchuan's hand and in Du Ruo's hand.

The corners of Du Ruo's mouth twitched. She really wanted to tell her mother that Boss Yuan was not Ji Yuan, and she couldn't make the decision for this person.

But Bai Minhua obviously didn't think so. Men are easy to fool. It's not a big deal to just fool them. The main thing is to persuade Du Ruo to agree to take out the things.

"It's not easy for mom to find my family after all these years. Please help me. I just found my family and your uncle got into trouble. How can I feel at ease?"

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Even if you don't show up, he will have to suffer the consequences. The debts owed must be repaid. Please don't feel bad about it."

"Why are you like this, kid? Mr. Yuan is here." Bai Minhua looked at Du Ruo with an accusing look on her face, and hinted to her that Yuan Tingchuan was sitting next to her, so she should behave a little kinder.

This time Du Ruo really smiled. Kindness? Yuan Da Lao himself doesn't have this thing, so don't ask her for it.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Tingchuan winked at her, and Du Ruo's eyes flashed.

"It's not impossible to do this, but I can't just ask people for things for no reason, right?"

Bai Minhua's beautiful eyes flickered. She wanted to ask, "Why do you care about what your man wants and what you want in exchange?" Looking into Du Ruo's eyes, she understood.

This damn girl is greedy and won't act until she sees the rabbit.

"Your grandpa certainly won't let you down. How about this, if you have any toys you like, just tell me. It's okay to ask for more, and I'll send them to you later."

This mother is still sensible.

"I heard that you have a piece of Wufucai imperial jadeite, which is really worth a fortune. You know I am a jadeite carver and I like this thing the most. Why don't you give it to me?"

Bai Minhua was about to speak when Du Ruo spoke again.

"Someone told me that my grandfather has a Northern Song Dynasty Ru kiln celadon washbasin that is pretty good. Why not let my grandfather give it to me as a meeting gift?"

Bai Minhua's eyes widened. Isn't this girl too greedy?

Her piece of five-color premium imperial jadeite combines all five colors of jadeite in one. What's even more amazing is that each color has reached the level of premium glass-type jadeite.

This was her tenth wedding anniversary. Ji Yuan put a lot of thought into giving her a gift that was truly priceless and could not be purchased even if one had money. Yet, this girl asked for it right away. She was so arrogant.

That’s fine, but she even wants that Ru kiln azure glaze washbasin? ? That is a masterpiece of Ru kiln, the azure is like jade, the glaze is like solidified fat, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a family heirloom, is this girl trying to take advantage of the situation?

Du Ruo was not in a hurry. She said slowly, "Mom, you also know Yuan Tingchuan's taste. He doesn't like ordinary things. Isn't it that I have no choice? Go back and discuss it with Grandpa. If it doesn't work, forget it. I don't care."

If you don't care, how can others care? They are waiting for help.

Bai Minhua looked at the girl she gave birth to with complicated eyes. She thought of Du Ruo's father, the elegant and handsome man who always smiled before speaking, treated people gently, and was even more considerate and thoughtful to her.

But poor couples have many worries. What's the use of being meticulous and considerate? Good birds choose trees to roost in, and the phoenix naturally only roosts in the phoenix tree. She never regretted leaving that year, but now she is filled with emotion when she looks at her daughter.

She is nothing like her father.

Du Ruo didn't care how much emotion her mother had. Even if she heard her mother's inner voice, she would sneer. Don't be funny. She grew up like a weed since she was a child. There was nothing strange about her personality, unlike her father's.

After seeing Bai Minhua off, Du Ruo ran up to the boss like a servile boy, rubbed his shoulders with his hand, and asked for credit from him.

"If I hadn't discovered the problem with the Chenghua Doucai porcelain, you would have been in big trouble. As a reward, the porcelain should belong to me."

Yuan Tingchuan lowered his eyes, leisurely playing with the lighter in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "That is your job. Have you forgotten about the bronze and pottery? I have already paid the reward, so there is no reason for you to take double the amount."

Du Ruo tried to reason with him: "That's normal work. We are talking about bonuses now."

"Bonus? Is 500 enough?"

No, this boss is too stingy, isn't he?

Yuan Tingchuan suddenly smiled, stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms, and kissed the corner of her lips gently: "This is the amount of bonus, but if you want that porcelain as a gift, I won't refuse."

What this means is that public is public and private is private, and they cannot be confused.

This man...

Bai Minhua cried and told Chen Laoyezi and Ji Yuan about Du Ruo's request. She cried in Ji Yuan's arms. Ji Yuan hugged her distressedly and coaxed her softly, "Don't cry. Let's switch with her. I will find a way to get a piece of jade back in the future, and I will definitely make your wish come true."

"Ayuan, it's not that piece of jade that I'm interested in." Her beautiful eyes were full of affection, as if she was crying and complaining.

Ji Yuan was so heartbroken that he wanted to show some sympathy to his wife. However, because Old Master Chen was there, he wiped away her tears and said softly, "Those are just material possessions. I know how you feel. We don't need to worry too much about each other."

This is exactly what Bai Minhua wanted him to say. She had already considered it. Although top-grade jadeite is rare, its value without being carved and polished is definitely not as high as the items on the list of antiques that Mr. Chen gave her. It must be worth it to exchange a piece of jadeite for so many antiques, right?

Details determine success or failure. A-Yuan needs to handle this well. Don't lose sight of the big picture because of small details. A thousand-mile-long dam can be destroyed by an ant hole. Although some things are small, they can easily leave hidden problems and be detrimental to the future.

She was so embarrassed and sad today for two people to see. First, to tell Ji Yuan about her dilemma. Even though her brother's life was at stake, she still valued the relationship with Ji Yuan more.

The second was to tell Mr. Chen that she had suffered a great loss for that piece of porcelain, so she could add some chips.

Mr. Chen understood the look in Bai Minhua's eyes. He didn't feel sorry for other people's jadeite, but he felt sorry for his own Ru kiln celadon washbasin. After so many years of hard work, he only had this one Ru kiln porcelain in his hand, and it was a fine piece at that. It was a rare treasure, wasn't it?

His heart was bleeding. If it were normal, if someone wanted to exchange his Chenghua Doucai Fish and Lotus Bowl for his Ru Kiln Celadon Washbasin, he would definitely spit on that person. What good thing was he thinking? That was a Ru Kiln that could be compared with the Shang Yi Zhou Ding. There was no way he could exchange it.

But now that someone is holding his neck, he has to give it to her even if he doesn't want to.
