Chapter 71 A Mother's Heart
Du Ruo has a loving mother's heart and is thinking about cleaning up the environment around her son so that he can grow up healthy and strong.
Even in the Ji family far away in Hong Kong City, someone touched the mother's heart.
Mrs. Ji, Bai Minhua, cried in Ji Yuan's arms: "Ayuan, I never regret meeting you. This is God's arrangement. I came to this world just to meet you, but why can't we be together from the beginning?"
Ji Yuan stroked his wife's cheek with a sad look on his face. He said softly, "This is God's test for us. Let us cherish each other's feelings more. I understand what you have done for me, and I will cherish it more."
Bai Minhua's tears fell on the man's clothes like pearls. She cried beautifully, with a kind of heartbreak that made Ji Yuan intoxicated.
Ji Yuan gently pried open his wife's jade-white fingers, and in her fair and delicate palm was a small phoenix-shaped jade pendant.
When Bai Minhua saw the jade pendant, her tears fell even more fiercely. She sobbed and stroked the man's chest, choking and saying, "I am an unfilial daughter and an incompetent mother."
Ji Yuan said with a distressed look on his face: "Who said that? You are the best mother in the world. If you don't believe me, let's ask A-Lin?"
There was sorrow in the beauty's eyes, and the crystal tears on her cheeks carried endless sorrow: "But, Ruoruo..."
Ji Bailin said softly, "Didn't you arrange for someone from the Du family's eldest house to take care of her? You have fulfilled your responsibilities as a mother, so don't be sad.
You always say that the child is well-behaved and sensible, she will definitely understand your painstaking efforts. "
Bai Minhua gently put her snow-white and slender arms around the man's neck, and gently stroked the back of his neck with her slender fingers. She said with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Ayuan, I know everything. You persuaded our son to give the branch in Pengcheng to Du Hai to manage, just to help me repay them for their care for my daughter. You did it all for me, I..."
The woman's eyes were charming, her cheeks were flushed, and her voice was gentle and melodious, drowning in the man's lips and teeth...
The man's eyes were full of pity. His beloved woman was kind and weak, like a dodder, lovable and sympathetic...
In the main room of the Du family courtyard, Du Ruo and Yuan Tingchuan were sitting on the sofa, looking at a piece of porcelain on the tea table side by side.
This piece of porcelain was received by Du Ruo by chance before the trip, and it did not fit in with the batch of bronzes and painted pottery.
The glaze of the porcelain is crystal clear and as clear and green as the surface of a lake. Du Ruo has already recognized that this is the "secret color porcelain".
There have always been countless legends about this "secret color porcelain". Until last year, several pieces of secret color porcelain were unearthed in the underground palace of Famen Temple, which resolved the long-standing controversy in the ceramics industry and allowed the "secret color porcelain" to reappear in the eyes of the world.
It has only been half a year since the "Secret Color Porcelain" reappeared in the world. Du Ruo intends to play a joke on the boss to see if he recognizes it.
Du Ruo acted like a curious baby and asked, "This porcelain is very special. What is it?"
The boss is worthy of being a boss. Yuan Tingchuan smiled and said, "It's normal that you don't recognize it. This is secret color porcelain. Lu Guimeng once wrote, "The wind and dew of the ninth autumn open the kiln, and the green color of thousands of peaks comes."
This is about secret color porcelain. There have been many different debates about secret color porcelain, but the final conclusion was not reached until last year.
Secret color porcelain is a special type of Yue kiln celadon. Secret color means a secret glaze formula, which is used to apply the secret glaze formula on the surface of the porcelain and then fired.
The secret color porcelain round plate that Du Ruo received was in perfect condition. It was placed quietly on the tea table, like a pool filled with spring water.
Yuan Tingchuan asked: "How much money did you give to the old lady?"
Du Ruo held out a finger, and Yuan Tingchuan raised his eyebrows: "One hundred yuan?"
The corners of Du Ruo's mouth twitched, and she looked at the boss with a speechless look.
Du Ruo sighed helplessly: "One thousand yuan."
Seeing Yuan Tingchuan's puzzled look, she explained, "I didn't suffer any loss by buying this porcelain. The old man has a patient at home. One thousand yuan is nothing to me, but it is life-saving money for him."
Yuan Tingchuan looked at Du Ruo with a smile, his eyes flashing.
Some things just happen without you having to mention them. Just as Mrs. Ji mentioned the Du family to Ji Yuan, Du Hai got into trouble.
Du Hai was originally an ordinary worker, but then something good happened to him: the Ji family suddenly chose him to be the general manager of the Pengcheng branch. At first he didn't dare to accept the offer. Who knew if this was a snare or a trap?
It was not until later that people told them that the idea was to repay them for raising Du Ruo that the Du family happily accepted it. In their view, they had no guilt, because no matter how good or bad it was, they had raised Du Ruo, right?
However, they couldn't tell Du Ruo that they were leaving, so Uncle Du left quietly. All the neighbors knew about it, except Du Ruo.
Du Hai went from being a poor boy to a big boss overnight. Although he knew nothing and was just a figurehead, there was a lot of money in the company. Besides, the Ji family said that they did it to repay a favor, so naturally they would not argue with him over the 18,000 yuan.
But people's appetite is constantly expanding, and Du Hai's hands are getting bigger and bigger, and he is involved in more and more places.
In the beginning, he was so scared that his legs would tremble every time he entered a dance hall, but now he can spend thousands of dollars a night. In just half a year, he has become a complete playboy.
This time someone invited him to go to Mingdao to gamble, but he didn't dare to go at first. He knew that he was different from these people. He said he was the general manager, but in fact he was just a figurehead. He was neither the second generation nor the first generation of rich people.
But he couldn't help but be told by others: "Things belonging to the Ji family always belong to the Ji family. You have such a good opportunity now. You can mobilize the company's funds. If you don't use this as capital to make some money, wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity?"
Du Hai was a little moved after listening to this. These words actually touched upon his hidden worries. No matter how much he spent, it was all given to him by others. One day, if the Ji family wanted to take it back, he would become a pauper again.
But he doesn't know how to make money from money. He has heard that one can make money by playing the stock market, but he doesn't understand all these colorful lines.
He had played cards with his friends a few times, and he won quite a few times. His friends all praised him for his natural luck in gambling. This praise made him feel a little flattered. There are top talents in all 360 professions, so maybe this is the one he is suited to?
But he still had some rationality, knowing that if this thing fell into the abyss, it would be the abyss. But he couldn't resist his friends' constant whispering, and after a while Du Hai became a little worried.
He already lacked a sense of security, and was stuck in a dead end. He had no idea how to proceed with the matter, so in a fit of anger he went with the others to the Mingdao Casino.
