Chapter 244 The Prodigal Son’s Daughter 43
Zhang Xiaojia took his elder brother to have lunch.
Zhang Xiaoke took her directly to the staff cafeteria, and they sat down. Zhang Xiaojia looked at her eldest brother, but he ignored her completely.
Zhang Xiaojia said angrily, "Brother, I originally wanted to take you to buy these ancient coins and buy you a car as a birthday present. If you don't like them, then forget it."
Zhang Xiaoke said, "You want to buy a car with just copper coins? Are you stupid?"
Zhang Xiaojia said with a look of disgust, "What I have in my hand is a mother sculpture. A mother sculpture is a hand-carved mother model. It was very rare back then, and even rarer still in existence. It is also in perfect condition. You know nothing."
Zhang Xiaoke looked at her suspiciously. Could she be so nice? Then he realized that his grandfather liked copper coins and often bought them. The corners of his mouth twitched. This damn girl.
"How many roses, how much is it?"
"6 roses, auction price 9 million"
Zhang Xiaoke took out his phone and checked it. Damn, it was really that expensive. He said angrily, "I'll transfer the money to you, and you give me these."
Zhang Xiaojia shook her head and said coquettishly, "How can it be so good? Gathering so many mother carvings at once, the value of one mother carving is different from the value of six mother carvings. Okay~ Take me to see your grandfather!"
Zhang Xiaoke looked at her and said, "What do you want?"
Zhang Xiaojia smiled and said, "The old man received a piece of Tianlu beast from the Western Han Dynasty. I want it."
Zhang Xiaoke said directly, "Change it!"
Zhang Xiaojia looked at him pretending to be cute.
The assistant brought the food over. Zhang Xiaojia looked at the food, took a bite, looked at him in surprise and said, "Brother, these dishes~"
Zhang Xiaoke smiled and said, "Uncle Yubai provided it, but the quantity is small, so only senior executives can do it."
Zhang Xiaojia reached out and said, "Give me two high-level cards."
Zhang Xiaoke looked at her silver hair and said, "Jia Jia, your white hair is your pass. Others use their faces, but you only need to use your hair."
This made Zhang Xiaojia tremble with anger. She deliberately snatched the delicious dishes from her eldest brother's plate and in the end, she was so full that she was full.
Zhang Xiaoke looked at her silly sister, too embarrassed to see anyone. Fortunately, they were in the private room. It seemed that if this girl didn't take her to her grandfather's house, she wouldn't leave. She checked her work schedule and thought that if she hurried, she could be back by 3 pm.
"Let's go." Zhang Xiaoke pulled her away.
Zhang Xiaojia sat in the big brother's car and asked, "What did you say to Miss Feng?"
Zhang Xiaoke thought for a moment and answered seriously, "I have a good impression of her, but I still have to wait and see if our values are compatible and whether she can get along well with my family, especially you."
Zhang Xiaojia responded with equal seriousness: "Brother, you should know that I will respect any choice you make."
Zhang Xiaoke said frankly, "Jia Jia, respect alone isn't enough. Our interests are closely intertwined. We prosper together and suffer together. To put it bluntly, your wife can divorce you, but if we have a conflict, all our assets will need to be completely liquidated, which would be extremely troublesome."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaojia pondered it carefully and realized that this was indeed the case. Her family's shares, the pharmaceutical company, He Fei's tech company, Xingui Technology, SK Motors, and other important assets had all been authorized to her eldest brother for management. If her eldest brother's wife couldn't get along with her, or even caused a dispute, both parties would inevitably suffer heavy losses. Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaojia couldn't help but sigh, "Yeah... Am I difficult to get along with?"
Zhang Xiaoke frowned and denied this view without hesitation: "Not difficult? That's because it's not difficult at all! It's precisely because it's too easy that it becomes so difficult. You don't care about many things, and your principle is very simple - as long as you don't like something, just respect it. But in reality, this means that you always keep your distance from others. You and I have a good relationship, but this involves the three of us getting along. If I choose to get close to you, then my wife might be dissatisfied; and if I don't treat you in a friendly way, our relationship will only gradually become distant in the long run."
Zhang Xiaoke continued, "Originally, I didn't want to choose a girl from a wealthy family, but as we got along, I felt a connection, so I decided to give it a try. The Feng family is a problem, and I don't really want an in-law with a mistress in power."
Zhang Xiaojia said proudly, "It seems that my He Fei is still the best."
Arriving at Tianzhi Hutong on the North Second Ring Road, driving all the way down, we arrived at the innermost and largest gate. This place was much larger than their ancestral home.
After entering, Old Master Chen sat on the sofa and looked at the two of them, his tone filled with dissatisfaction: "What kind of wind is blowing today to bring the eldest young master and young lady of the Zhang family here?"
Zhang Xiaojia didn't hesitate and walked over to the sofa and sat down, right where the old man from the Chen family was standing, and said, "Grandpa, what kind of wind can there be in winter? It's the northwest wind."
Old Master Chen snorted lightly and sneered, "Why are you calling me so affectionate? You're still my grandpa, but you didn't even bring your head to kowtow at the wedding."
Zhang Xiaojia blinked her big eyes, looked at the old man with an unreasonable look, and said speechlessly: "Grandpa, don't you feel guilty? You were in Gangcheng last year and this year, and you only came back for 7 days? I asked my aunt to send some good medicine to you. No matter what, my brother and I miss you the most. Where is the red envelope?" As she spoke, she reached out to ask the old man for a red envelope.
Grandpa Chen took out a card and handed it to her, saying, "This card is for you two, brother and sister. One of you should buy less antiques, and the other one should buy less cars. The garage will be full, and if you still buy cars, the value will depreciate. You might as well buy ancient literature!"
Zhang Xiaoke and Zhang Xiaojia grabbed the card and put it in their pockets. Zhang Xiaojia was a step too slow and didn't get it. Zhang Xiaoke said directly, "Haha, grab it with my short hand, I'll give you 7 and you'll give me 3."
Zhang Xiaojia snorted and acquiesced. She and her elder brother had been fighting for red envelopes since they were young. When she was 16, her elder brother would let her go. When she was 16, she could celebrate the New Year without her brother.
Zhang Xiaojia took out a brocade box from her bag and placed it on the tea table. After gently opening it, six ancient coins were neatly arranged inside. They were: Guangxu ten-coin carved mother coin, Baoquan fifty-coin carved mother coin, Daoguang Tongbao carved mother coin, Tongzhi ten-coin carved mother coin, Qixiang Tongbao carved mother coin, and Jiaqing Tongbao carved mother coin.
Grandpa Chen's eyes widened when he saw these ancient coins. This was something he had always dreamed of. He reached out to take them, but then he thought of Zhang Xiaojia's character and asked, "What do you want?"
Zhang Xiaojia looked at Grandpa Chen and smiled, "I'd like to borrow your Western Han Dynasty Tianlu beast for a few days, is that okay?"
When Mr. Chen heard this, he immediately pointed at the door and said, "No, get out now!"
Zhang Xiaojia calmly took out a document from her bag and handed it to Mr. Chen, saying, "Please take a look at this first~"
