Chapter 162 Birthday Gift (2/2)



Zhou Dongwei continued to drink her tea awkwardly, her toes almost tearing her shoes.

Madam Dong smiled. When she was in the academy, her daughter-in-law came home and mentioned it. As a shrewd old lady, how could she not understand the embarrassment in Madam Liu's heart at that moment.

He smiled calmly, looked at Qian Chunhua who was beside him and brought a gift, and changed the subject, "Chunhua, what are you giving me this time?"

Qian Chunhua smiled, stood up, took the gift and put it on the table, "Auntie, can I open it and show it to you?"

"Open it, I'm so curious." Mrs. Dong wanted to change the subject, but she was really curious.

The first thing Qian Chunhua opened was the 1.5-ounce wild ginseng. The dark wooden box had a deep luster on its surface.

Qian Chunhua gently opened the box. Inside the box was a layer of soft velvet, protecting the wild ginseng.

The wild ginseng is shaped like a human figure, with distinct roots, which makes it particularly unique. Its skin is dark brown and slightly shiny.

Mrs. Dong was a connoisseur of good things, and her eyes widened when she saw the wild ginseng.

Even Old Madam Liu, who was standing by, widened her eyes and looked at the wild ginseng with envy.

Zhou Dongwei glanced at Qian Chunhua with a hidden look. She didn't expect that the person she looked down on last time would be so generous.

You can't get this ginseng without five thousand taels of silver.

"This ginseng must be about one thousand ginsengs at present." Old Madam Liu said enviously.

Qian Chunhua smiled and nodded. "About the same, one hundred and sixty cents."

"Quick, put it away and keep it well. This ginseng is too precious." Old Madam Dong quickly turned around and instructed Madam Wu behind her.

Such a large amount of wild ginseng is truly hard to come by.

"What is that?" After looking at the wild ginseng, Mrs. Dong became even more curious about the remaining box.

Old Madam Liu beside her also stretched her neck, and even Zhou Dongwei, who was sitting opposite Qian Chunhua, turned her head curiously to look.

Zhou Dongwei thought, no matter how valuable it was, it couldn't be more valuable than the ginseng I just saw.

Qian Chunhua carefully placed the box on the table and gently opened it, fearing that the contents might be damaged.

When the items in the box were laid out, everyone gasped.

A piece of green crystal in the shape of a longevity pine is placed on the table.

In the soft sunlight, the green crystal ornaments in the shape of longevity pine sparkle, as crystal clear as jade.

Every side of it reflects brilliant light, as if gathering the life force between heaven and earth.

The longevity pine has an elegant shape and lush branches and leaves, each leaf seems to sway gently in the breeze.

That unique green is deep and mysterious.

"It's so beautiful..." Everyone was amazed.

Zhou Dongwei was so envious that her eyes were brimming with envy.

Who is she? Why is she so generous?

"Chun..., Chunhua, this... is too precious!" Old Madam Dong smacked her lips.

This gift is even more valuable than the tableware last time.

"Aunt, as long as you like it, Chunhua wishes you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains." Qian Chunhua smiled and put the green crystal back into the box.

Qian Chunhua felt relieved, as long as the old lady liked it.

Green crystal looks beautiful, but in modern times, it is only worth a few dollars if it is mass-produced in a factory.

The only thing that is truly valuable is the wild ginseng.

This time, without the old lady's instructions, Nanny Wu stepped forward and carefully put the green crystal back into the box.

During the whole process, he was extremely gentle, for fear of damaging anything.
