Watching the two of them enter the bedroom, Yun Xu raised an eyebrow: "Looks like they have a good relationship?"
Yun Lan didn't deny this: "That's true. From what we've observed, they do have a very strong bond."
Yun Xu: "What a pity, she got married so early."
"It's not a pity," Cheng Shuying said, pushing the door open and walking out. "Putting aside the dangers surrounding Xiao Zhou, he's truly an exceptional person. It's not a humiliation for Jingjing to be with him."
"It's just too dangerous in the middle." Yun Lan sighed, "I can't bear to let her suffer."
Cheng Shuying had her own opinion: "There are gains and losses. Who has a smooth life? Even if it weren't for the calculations and dangers around Xiao Zhou, Jingjing wouldn't have had any contact with Xiao Zhou given the Xie family's background."
Yun Lan: "But if Jingjing grew up with us, she wouldn't have..."
Cheng Shuying smiled bitterly: "But she didn't grow up with us, this is an indisputable fact. In this case, we can only accept the facts and work hard to clear the obstacles for them."
"We were remiss as parents for not doing anything for her before, but we can now."
Yun Lan patted the back of Cheng Shuying's hand and said, "Yes, we will clear the obstacles for them. I can't let our daughter be in danger again."
Yunxu couldn't help but sigh. His uncle and aunt might have glamorous careers and impressive backgrounds, but the pain they felt was something only they knew. When Jingjing was lost, they'd been searching for her for years, never wanting another child, fearing they'd forget their first.
After finally finding their daughter, she ended up getting married and even in danger. This undoubtedly made them even more worried, but no matter how worried they were, they had to find a way to protect her and help her solve these problems.
Ultimately, the dangers Xie Jing encountered were largely due to the Yun family. She had never been protected by the Yun family, yet she encountered all kinds of dangers because of them.
Thinking of this, Yun Xu felt uncomfortable.
When she came out of the bathroom, Xie Jing finally woke up. When she returned to the living room and saw Cheng Shuying, Xie Jing was also a little surprised: "Mom is awake too?"
Cheng Shuying smoothed Xie Jing's hair and said, "Well, I have to go see my grandfather today, so I might as well get up early."
"You haven't been home for a long time. Over the years, your father and I have saved some dowry for you. I originally wanted to give it to you when you got married, but I didn't expect you to be married now."
She took a wooden box from the coffee table and said, "Every year on your birthday, your father and I would buy you a birthday present. Little by little, it adds up to a lot. Before we knew it, we had accumulated this."
Xie Jing took the wooden box, opened it and took a look. Her peach blossom eyes widened unconsciously: "So many?"
Cheng Shuying chuckled: "There is still some at home, most of them are clothes, shoes, bags, etc. The bulk is here."
At the top were a few red books, which, when opened, contained mostly houses and shops, with a few car keys also inside. Beneath them were various jewellery items, such as bracelets, necklaces, earrings and so on.
There is even a piece of porcelain that looks like an antique.
"This is a Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain that I found at a bargain price. I bought it when I was pregnant with you." Cheng Shuying saw Xie Jing staring at the porcelain plate and explained softly, "Your father and I thought you brought us good luck, so we wanted to pass this blue and white porcelain on to you. We didn't expect it to be handed over to you until now."
"Yuan blue and white porcelain?" Xie Jing wasn't completely ignorant: "It's very expensive and rare."
Cheng Shuying chuckled. "It's indeed rare. There have been fewer and fewer of them in the market over the years. Many are in the hands of big collectors. This cup is a Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup that I found later. Take it and play with it."
"I see there's some incense in your room, and there's also a Xuande furnace here..."
As she spoke, she took out two more cups and an incense burner. Xie Jing looked a little dizzy: "I used to think Jiyun was already very wealthy, but I didn't expect Mom to be even more generous."
Zhou Jiyun also shook his head: "I dare not compare with my mother. The things my mother took out are basically priceless."
Although he could afford it, this kind of antiques sometimes cannot be bought with just money, as they represent a lot of heritage.
Cheng Shuying was a little complacent: "Your grandfather studied antiques. I learned a lot from him, so I also learned a little bit. It can be said that it is a family tradition."
Yun Lan: "The antiques were prepared by your mother, and the others were prepared by me. From now on, these will all be yours."
Xie Jing carefully put away the blue and white porcelain plates, chicken-glazed cups and other antiques: "I like them very much. Thank you, Mom and Dad."
She felt a little strange. When Liu Limin prepared the dowry for Xie Wuyou, Xie Jing had felt a little uneasy. But after she knew she was not Liu Limin's biological daughter, these feelings disappeared.
But now, after receiving these gifts from Cheng Shuying, Xie Jing finally understood what it felt like to be missed by one's parents. To be honest, Xie Jing was touched.
What kind of mood did Cheng Shuying and Yunlan hold when they prepared these gifts? Although she was not favored in the Xie family, after she thought it through, she did not care about Liu Limin's mood.
And what about Yunlan and Cheng Shuying? How have they been doing these past few years? Yunlan is clearly not even fifty years old, but now his temples are all gray.
Cheng Shuying ruffled Xie Jing's hair and said, "As long as you like it, I'm glad. Your grandpa said that when you go to the capital, you can choose from his private collection. I'm just a nobody after all."
Xie Jing smiled: "Okay, Jiyun and I will go to the capital before the New Year."
Zhou Jiyun also agreed: "The company will be on holiday before the New Year. Jingjing and I will go to the capital to visit the elders."
In addition to these birthday gifts, Yun Lan pushed a bank card over and said, "Here's ten million. Your mother and I have been running around all these years, and we haven't saved much. Don't think it's too little."
"How could that be? It's much more than the dowry the Xie family gave me." Xie Jing picked up the bank card and said, "Thank you, Dad."
She looked at Zhou Jiyun and said, "I'll put these in the safe."
Zhou Jiyun also stood up: "Okay, you go ahead and do your work, I'll bring out breakfast, and then we'll go to the old house after breakfast."
Xie Jing stood up and looked at Cheng Shuying: "I don't know how to save these either. Mom, can you teach me?"
Cheng Shuying smiled: "Okay, in fact, to keep these, it is best to build a special collection room..."
Zhou Jiyun was very perceptive: "I will find a professional in this field tomorrow."
Xie Jing and Cheng Shuying went to the study to cultivate their relationship, while Yun Xu and Yun Lan helped Zhou Jiyun. Of course, Yun Xu was mainly asking about the situation of the Zhou family. This was his habit. Now that Zhou Jiyun was also considered a member of the Yun family, could he watch Zhou Jiyun being bullied?
Zhou Jiyun also found this feeling quite fresh. Since his parents passed away, this was the first time someone, other than Xie Jing, had clearly stood on his side.
Although he knew that Yun Xu loved everyone in his house, in the final analysis, he was indeed the one who was taken care of.
