Wear it quickly! My mad dog-like host!

"Where have you been?" Jiang Jiayue walked around Qianghua who had just returned from outside and asked curiously: "You seemed very happy."

Although the person in front of her looked the same as usual, with a smile on his face as if he would sleep, she could still see extra joy in his eyes and eyebrows. There was also happiness in his steps and he moved briskly.

"Hmm?" Qianghua was surprised at her sharpness, her eyebrows curved, "I just went out for a walk and picked up some good things."

"What good stuff?"

Along the way, every time she arrived at a place, she would go out to the local black market to exchange the money she had and the items she collected along the way for some other things. Because the amount was not large, Jiang Jiayue, An Jing and others knew about it, but they didn't say anything.

Occasionally, people would ask her to help exchange some local specialties to send back to her hometown.

Qianghua took out a small purse and handed it to her with a smile, "A gift for you."

"Want to bribe me?" Although he said this, the corners of Jiang Jiayue's mouth rose unconsciously.

She took the purse and poured the contents into her palm. Inside was a pair of round jade earrings the size of quail eggs, of excellent quality. They were matched with silver threads, making the jade look like elves in the forest, very lively.

Jiang Jiayue was startled, clenched her hands suddenly, and looked at Qianghua in shock.

Qianghua cried out, "Don't hold it too tightly. The silver thread is easily deformed. It's not easy to preserve it so perfectly."

"Where did this come from?" Jiang Jiayue was afraid that the soldiers standing guard at the door would hear him, so he lowered his voice and asked anxiously: "Don't lie to me. Although I have never touched any expensive jewelry, I am not stupid. Let's not talk about the quality of this thing. The workmanship alone is extraordinary!"

The silver threads were as thin as hair, with multiple strands intertwined, yet each one was distinct. Even she wasn't sure she could achieve this level.

Qianghua spread her hands and said, "I got it from the black market. If you don't believe me, go check it out."

This thing is one of her countless collections. She would never dirty Jiang Jiayue and Cheng Wenyao's hands by taking advantage of the situation.

"I don't believe it!" Jiang Jiayue stamped her feet, eager to get to the bottom of it.

Qianghua curled her lips, walked past her a few steps, sat on the bed in the guesthouse, propped one hand on the bed casually, crossed her legs, and asked her with a roguish smile, "So what do you want? No? If not, I'll give it to Wen Yao."

Jiang Jiayue got angry when he saw her like this. He snorted and sat down next to her, asking sourly, "Cheng Wenyao has one too?"

Qianghua nodded, "Yeah, if she has it, you have it too."

Seeing that Jiang Jiayue seemed to be about to punch her, Qianghua quickly said: "What she doesn't have, you should have even more."

Jiang Jiayue glanced at Qianghua and condemned her behavior of keeping balance, but she also knew the position of Cheng Wenyao in Qianghua's heart.

Cheng Wenyao just met Qianqian before her! Jiang Jiayue thought.

Jiang Jiayue quickly calmed down and tried on the earrings happily, "Do they look good?"

Qianghua immediately started praising her and made her smile.

Beijing.

Cheng Wenyao returned home with a few nephews and nieces, carrying a lot of bags.

"Why are there so many packages? Who sent them to you?" Old Master Cheng asked after poking the packages on the ground with his crutch.

Cheng Wenyao laughed and said, "It's money. She went out of town for something and sent me some local specialties."

When Mr. Cheng heard this, his brows subconsciously frowned. He had heard about what happened between his granddaughter and this "Qian Qian" on the island. He always felt that there was something wrong with the way these two people got along. But looking at his granddaughter's ignorant face, he thought he was overthinking.

Cheng Wenyao had no idea what her grandfather was thinking. She squatted on the ground and started to open the packages. There were several packages in a row, all of which were food. She simply used the food to dismiss the noisy nephews and nieces around her and concentrated on opening the small packages.

The letter poured out along with a small box. Cheng Wenyao opened it casually. Old Man Cheng leaned over to take a look curiously.

"Click——" the box slammed shut.

The eyes of both grandfather and grandson widened at the same time.

"grandfather!"

"you--"

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and were speechless for a moment. They glanced at the kids beside them and swallowed what they wanted to say.

In the box was a rich and bright ruby ​​pendant necklace, which was slightly larger than a pigeon egg. The silver-white necklace was inlaid with tiny, sparkling white diamonds that were so dazzling that it hurt the eyes.

Although Mr. Cheng didn't know much about jewelry, he still had an eye for appreciation. To put it bluntly, compared with this piece of jewelry in front of him, the ones collected by his wife were at least two points inferior!

Cheng Wenyao didn’t know much about jewelry, but she had help. She shouted loudly, “Grandma!”

After hearing the answer, I picked up my things and ran upstairs.

Mr. Cheng, who had difficulty walking, followed quickly.

After seeing the necklace, Grandma Cheng was calmer than the grandfather and grandson. She exclaimed: "What a good thing, top-grade pigeon blood red, a family heirloom."

Then he said with some distress: "It has a novel style and looks like a new item, but the inlay technique is so poor. How can you drill holes in gemstones? Where did you get this thing?"

Cheng Wenyao didn't care about the inlay technique, and said happily: "This is Qianqian's New Year's gift to me!"

Then he opened the attached letter and took a look.

The two old men looked at each other and admired the necklaces in their hands.

"Grandpa, this is what Qian Qian bought on the black market. Is it okay?" Cheng Wenyao handed the letter with the origin of the ruby ​​necklace to Grandpa Cheng and asked with some concern.

Old Master Cheng glanced at the picture and said calmly, "It's okay, but the situation outside is not good right now, so you can't take it out."

He glanced at his ignorant granddaughter and felt a little more favorable towards the "money" she mentioned.

These days, the things of these "rich landlords" are openly being searched everywhere. Once they are found, there will be some trouble. However, this letter directly puts the responsibility on himself, so even if something goes wrong in the future, there will be evidence.

It is the handle of "money" and also sincerity.

But he was also worried. If their relationship was ordinary, would he be able to give such a valuable gift?

Thinking about the old friends' overt and covert suggestions for the young people to meet, Mr. Cheng got a headache.

Why don't you wait any longer?

Anyway, the child is still young and I can afford to wait a few years. At least the price of this necklace can be worth a few years.

Cheng Wenyao didn’t know all this. She only knew that Qianghua was still thinking about her outside, and she was very happy.

And Qianghua, who had gained a favorable impression in Mr. Cheng's heart, didn't think as much as he did.

The necklace was able to be delivered intact to Cheng Wenyao, naturally it was inevitable that Qianghua had tampered with it. If the person who opened it was not Cheng Wenyao, all he would see was a shriveled and yellowed pearl.

Similarly, before the pearls open, if someone with malicious intentions looks at them, they will only see shriveled, yellowish and worthless pearls.
