Chapter 157 I Want to Return the Xie Family’s Dowry



Grandma Cheng pushed a wooden box over and said, "Your father went back home last night and spent several hours in his collection room. Finally, he carefully selected a few things and brought them out."

"They are all your father's favorites."

Cheng Shuying opened it and took a look at the small boxes inside. She couldn't help but smile: "I'm sorry to trouble you, Dad."

She waved at Xie Jing as she spoke: "Jingjing, come and sit down. Jiyun, come over too. Your grandpa has prepared gifts for you."

Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing sat down across from Cheng Shuying, who opened a few boxes and pushed them in front of them. Cheng Yu took a quick look, "White porcelain from the Ru kiln? A pair of Zigang porcelain tiles? And a white jade flute?"

The only thing Xie Jing recognized was the white jade flute. As for Ru kiln white porcelain, she had heard of it but had never seen it. After all, the number of Ru kiln white porcelains in existence was extremely rare, and even a fragment could be collected as a family heirloom.

She had no idea what Zigang's opponent was.

Cheng Shuying explained softly, "Ru kiln white porcelain is even rarer and more precious than Yuan blue and white porcelain. I remember your grandfather found this pair of porcelain tiles at a loss. You studied music, so he even prepared a white jade flute for you."

The jade flute is snow-white all over, with only a little crimson in the upper middle part. It is because of this that this jade flute is particularly rare.

Grandpa Cheng took out the box containing the Zigang jade, which contained a pair of dragon and phoenix jade plaques.

"You were already married when we found you. This is our wedding gift to you." He leaned over and put the phoenix jade pendant on Xie Jing's finger. "I hope you two will be able to live in harmony and be happy forever."

Grandma Cheng also put the dragon-shaped jade pendant on Zhou Jiyun: "That's great. From now on, you two will live a good life, support and take care of each other, and we will feel at ease."

Zhou Jiyun suppressed his inner feelings and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa and Grandma, Jingjing and I will always be fine."

He didn't know the value of the jade pendants, but just by looking at the quality, he knew they were definitely good. He knew the Cheng family loved her because they loved her, but so what? Xie Jing was his wife, and that was an unchangeable fact.

Xie Jing glanced at everyone in the Cheng family. None of Cheng's uncles and others showed any reluctance or jealousy. It seemed that Cheng Waigong was usually very good at managing the family.

Cheng Shuying saw Xie Jing's look and couldn't help but lower her eyes. No one is born with the ability to read people's expressions. Xie Jing's cautiousness, fearing trouble, only made her sad.

After Grandpa Cheng's gift, Xie Jing received many other gifts, such as the pipa from Grandma Cheng and clothes and jewelry from her two aunts.

The Cheng family uncles were straightforward and gave money directly. Or rather, the men were straightforward and gave money directly. The women, however, gave a wide variety of gifts.

Xie Jing held a few jewelry boxes and said, "I suddenly feel very rich."

Cheng Shuying reached out and touched Xie Jing's hair: "Are you happy?"

Xie Jing's eyes curved: "I'm very happy. I didn't expect everything to go so smoothly."

Zhou Jiyun was also smiling. He hadn't expected everything to go so smoothly. Now Xie Jing's external hidden dangers were all eliminated. But he couldn't let his guard down about Zhou Jiyun.

With Zhou Jiwen's madness, what would he do?

After lunch, Yun Xu, Cheng Jin, and Cheng Yu arranged to take Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun out for a walk. Seeing Zhou Jiyun squatting at the entrance to help Xie Jing put on her shoes, Yun Xu couldn't help but wink at them.

Cheng Yu typed quietly: "Are they usually... so close?"

Yun Xu raised his eyebrows slightly: "That's quite restrained."

Cheng Jin sighed, "Boss Zhou is so clingy."

Yun Xu laughed. "He's not clingy, so how could he expect Jingjing to be clingy? That's fine. With Jingjing's personality, she deserves someone who's enthusiastic and proactive."

Cheng Yu: "Too enthusiastic. I feel a little embarrassed when I look at Zhou Jiyun."

Yun Xu teased: "Are there times when you feel embarrassed?"

Cheng Yu quickly typed: "I'm just giving an example. Does he treat our sister like a child?"

Cheng Jin looked at the two people tying each other's scarves and said, "I think Jingjing really likes it. What do you call it? The queen and her lickspittle?"

Yun Xu chuckled: "You dare to call him a bootlicker in front of him?"

Cheng Jin: "Who would be so inconsiderate? Anyway, I think Zhou Jiyun has a bit of a strange personality. He looks gentle and easy to get along with, but who knows what he's like inside?"

Yunxu said the final words in the group chat: "Anyway, Jingjing is tolerant. As long as he doesn't break the law, violate morality, or hurt others, why do you care about his personality?"

Seeing Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun tidying themselves up at the entrance, the three grown men quickly changed their shoes, and soon the sound of an engine was heard outside.

The elders of the Yun and Cheng families still gathered together to chat and talk. Now the dark cloud that had shrouded their two families for twenty-three years had finally been completely lifted, and good days would come from now on.

"Sister, the private restaurant we're going to tonight is deep in Xingzi Hutong. It's not far from the International Trade Center." Cheng Yu started talking as soon as they got in the car: "Shall we go to the International Trade Center later? My dad and uncle gave you the cards."

"My brother and I wanted to buy you something."

Xie Jing smiled and said, "No need. It's not easy for you to make money. I don't lack anything."

Cheng Jin was very determined: "Yes, Yunxu is your brother, and we are also your brothers. Jingjing, you can't be partial to one and ignore the other."

Yun Xu whistled: "Are you going to fight over this?"

Cheng Yu: "Of course, Jingjing is our sister."

Xie Jing was helpless, "Then don't buy anything too expensive. It's not easy for you to make money."

She really wasn't short of money. Not to mention her own side business was doing well, bringing in quite a bit of income every month. Furthermore, Zhou Jiyun's credit cards were basically all with her, and Grandpa Zhou had given her a large sum of money when they got married.

Add to that the many cards her parents and elders gave her during this recognition, and Xie Jing is truly incredibly wealthy.

"Speaking of money," Xie Jing suddenly looked at Zhou Jiyun beside her, "I remember when we got married, Xie Xuerong gave me a dowry of 6.66 million yuan, including a house, car, and so on. I plan to return it."

"The money they spent on me over the years has already been repaid through marriage. The Xie family company's turnover requires far less than two small goals."

The car fell silent at the mention of the Xie family. Even though the Jin and Liu families were the instigators, were the Xie family truly innocent? Especially Xie Xuerong, who had simply taken Xie Jing in, even sacrificing her life for such a huge benefit.

Zhou Jiyun held Xie Jing's hand and said, "In my opinion, you are a priceless treasure. I'm still the winner of these two small goals."

"If you want to return it, just return it. It will be clearer and avoid confusion in the future."
