Jiang Zirong was so happy that he simply took out all his collections to show Xue Jiayu.
"Xiaobao, look at this pair of ivory cups that grandpa collected. What do you think?"
Xue Jiayu knew at a glance that this thing was priceless. If she remembered correctly, in the book, this pair of ivory cups was sold at a high price of seven million at an auction house.
"Grandpa, these cups are beautiful, but they are too valuable. It's not good for you to keep them at home."
Jiang Zirong was surprised that she had such an idea, "Grandpa thought so too, he has already rented a safe and will put the money there next week."
"That's all right, Grandpa. You'd better put some calligraphy and paintings in there too."
Jiang Zirong was curious, "Which ones?"
Xue Jiayu's lotus-like hands seemed to randomly point at a few paintings. Jiang Zirong was puzzled: "But these writers are not very famous. Is it necessary to put them in the safe?"
"They are just not famous now, but that may not be the case in the future."
Xue Jiayu happened to be standing under a painting, the painter's name was Cui Sheng.
[For example, this Cui Sheng was later found to be proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting. Three years later, his output must have at least quintupled.]
Jiang Zirong was shocked. Could it be that Xiaobao had the ability to predict the future? !
Jiang Qiuyi was worried that Xiaobao would scare Jiang Zirong and He Meiqin if he showed too much, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, Xiaobao, these are grandpa's treasures, and grandpa will take care of it."
"Oh~"
Xue Jiayu sat back on the sofa obediently, said nothing more, and started eating fruit.
Jiang Zirong told He Meiqin to put away the paintings that Xue Jiayu had just mentioned and put them in the bank next week.
The Jiang family's nanny came to invite them to dinner. Although the Jiang family was not a feudal family, they followed the order of seniority, and Jiang Zirong always sat at the table first.
However, today, with Xue Jiayu as his precious treasure, Jiang Zirong even gave her this privilege.
"Come, Xiaobao, sit down first."
"Grandpa, Xiaobao wants to sit next to you."
Xue Jiayu climbed up to the seat to the right of Jiang Zirong with her legs, "Grandma, please sit on the left of Grandpa."
"Xiaobao is so good, he even knows to give up his seat to grandma."
He Meiqin liked her granddaughter more and more. "Qiu Yi, you should bring Xiaobao back to see us more often, or we can go over to see Xiaobao."
"Mom, I was busy with work recently. I will bring Xiaobao back to see you more often in the future. You are old and don't need to travel too much." Jiang Qiuyu put the peeled shrimps in Xue Jiayu's bowl.
"Eat quickly. Dad just called me and said they've arrived home. We'll go back after dinner."
When they heard that their baby was leaving, the old couple put down their chopsticks.
"Let's go now, it's not even dark yet."
He Meiqin quickly looked at Xue Jiayu twice, and Xue Jiayu gave her a sweet smile in return.
"Grandma, Xiaobao will come back to see you often in the future. If mommy is not available, I will come by myself!"
He Meiqin smiled from ear to ear, "Okay, grandma loves you well. Eat more before you go back. Today, grandma specially asked someone to cook your favorite dishes."
All the dishes on the table were fried, stir-fried, and deep-fried, which was not the taste of the old couple.
But Xue Jiayu loves to eat, so the two of them are happy to eat together.
Jiang Zirong didn't say anything, but silently picked up a lot of dishes for Xue Jiayu, and the dishes in front of her piled up like a small mountain.
"Dad, eat it yourself, don't give it to her."
Jiang Qiuyu also felt bad, knowing that her parents were reluctant to let Xiaobao go.
Maybe I can move to a bigger villa and bring my parents over to live with me...
However, this matter still needs long-term consideration, at least Xu Suzhen has to make it clear first.
Although there was no grudge between the two families, out of respect, he still had to ask Xu Suzhen first.
As for Xue Wangjun, there was no need to ask. He would definitely go along with her. Jiang Qiuyi had this confidence.
After dinner, Jiang Qiuyu took Xue Jiayu back home. Jiang Zirong and He Meiqin were reluctant to let them go and accompanied them all the way to the street.
"Xiaobao, if you miss your grandma and grandpa, just call us. You don't have to wait for mom to be free to send you back."
He Meiqin hugged Xue Jiayu again and again and was unwilling to put her down.
Finally, Jiang Qiuyi saw that it had been delayed for half an hour, and said helplessly: "Mom, if we don't leave now, we will get home late at night, and Xiaobao will not be able to sleep."
"Let's go." Jiang Zirong stopped his wife and waved at them, "Be careful on the road, and call us when you get home."
"You guys hurry in too."
Jiang Qiuyu got in the car and drove away.
Xue Jiayu climbed out of the car window and waved to the old couple.
"Grandma and grandpa, Xiaobao will come to see you next time!"
"Okay."
He Meiqin responded to her while holding back tears.
As soon as Jiang Qiuyu got home, she keenly noticed that the atmosphere was not right. The old lady was lying on the long sofa and sighing, while Xue Wangjun and Ying Huanyu were each sitting on a short sofa, and no one spoke.
"Mom, sister." Ying Huanyu called her softly.
"Um."
Jiang Qiuyi responded indifferently and told Xue Jiayu to take her upstairs.
"Sister, let's go upstairs and play. I brought back a lot of food from grandma's house!"
He Meiqin still dotes on her child. She sells snacks to her regardless of price and packs two large bags for Xue Jiayu to take back to eat.
She generously spread out snacks all over the floor, "Sister, take whatever you like!"
"Wow - chocolate."
Ying Huanyu picked up a piece of chocolate. The packaging was written entirely in English, which she couldn't understand at all.
The rich aroma of chocolate wafted out of the packaging bag, and Ying Huanyu swallowed his saliva repeatedly.
"Sister, why doesn't mom take me to grandma's house?"
Xue Jiayu explained, "Grandma's house is quite far away, and you get carsick, right? Mom is afraid that you'll get carsick."
"But it's just two hours." Ying Huanyu lowered his head in disappointment.
"Don't think too much. Look, these are what grandma brought back and asked me to eat with you."
Xue Jiayu picked up the snacks on the ground and stuffed all of them, all of which were expensive and delicious, into her hands.
Xue Jiayu's words did not make Ying Huanyu feel much better, but she ate her snacks silently and did not dwell on the issue anymore.
Downstairs, Jiang Qiuyi sat next to Xue Wangjun and winked at him and asked: What's wrong?
Xue Wangjun smiled bitterly and wanted Jiang Qiuyu to go up as well, but Xu Suzhen started to make a fuss.
"At the beginning I said I didn't agree to take him back, but look at him, now he's completely dependent on us!" Xu Suzhen covered her chest with her hands, rolled her eyes, and looked as if she was disappointed in him.
"I heard from Old Zhang that the lights were on in Li Minxue's house on New Year's Eve! What does this mean? She came back and was deliberately hiding from us."
Xu Suzhen slammed the table in frustration, "What's the point of raising this girl? She'll be as ungrateful as her mother and ruin our Xue family!"
"Mom, calm down. You're being so loud. Jiayu and the others can hear it." Xue Wangjun winked at his wife. Xue Jiayu sat down next to Xu Suzhen and helped her calm down.
"Mom, please don't be angry. You've already raised the child, how can you back out halfway?"
