Rebirth: We are all in the same little galaxy

Chapter 24: Divide Jewelry among Family Members

So the family still owes a lot of foreign debts! Now that they have money, Dad Lan wants to wait for Lan Yinlin to go to Beijing, then they will go back to their hometown to pack up their things and pay back the money!

Grandma Lan said that grandpa was an educated youth who went to the countryside to work in Xibei Village. Grandpa Lan told her that his family used to be an ancient martial arts family in Beijing, and they were quite wealthy, but all his family members died before he went to the countryside.

As for why all his family members died and why he came all the way to Xibei Village as an educated youth, he did not say.

That was Grandpa Lan's taboo, and he never revealed it until his death. Grandma Lan respected him very much, so if he didn't say it, she wouldn't ask!

When he was young, Grandpa Lan was tall and handsome, and was very popular among the girls in the village. Grandma Lan was the prettiest girl in the village, and the two outstanding young people naturally came together.

This is why her family has a different surname from the villagers. Most people in the village have the surname Chen. Grandma Lan and Mother Lan are from the same village.

Although they both have the surname Chen, they are not related at all. Grandma Lan's real name is Chen Xiuyan.

Grandma Lan had only one child, Dad Lan, in her life, and Mom Lan was an orphan. Lan Yinlin had heard her grandmother talk about her grandparents.

They died during a flood in the village. I heard that they died while trying to save a child who was washed away by the flood.

In the end, the child was rescued, but the lives of his grandparents, who were only in their twenties, ended forever that day, leaving three-year-old Lan's mother to depend on her grandparents.

It is said that many people died in that flood, and the village was filled with gloom for a long time.

Grandma Lan had always liked Mom Lan very much, so she had always taken good care of her during the time when Mom Lan's parents passed away, and often asked Dad Lan to bring delicious food to visit Mom Lan.

Over time, the two of them went from being childhood sweethearts to being together. Three years after Lan's mother married Lan's father, her grandparents also passed away one after another.

"Look at me! Why are you saying that?"

Grandma Lan wiped the tears from her eyes and looked at Lan Yinlin intently, as if she was looking at another person through her. Lan Yinlin knew that she was missing her grandfather!

Among the four children, Lan Yinlin's personality and appearance are most like Grandpa Lan. Perhaps because of this reason, Grandma Lan always favors her a little.

Lan Yinlin walked over, held her hand, and leaned her head on her shoulder. She didn't know what to say, so she could only comfort her silently!

Lan's father and mother didn't dare to say anything, fearing that the more they tried to comfort him, the more counterproductive it would be. They couldn't truly empathize with the sadness of losing a loved one yet.

The room fell into silence. Lan Yinlin thought for a moment, let go of Grandma Lan's hand, and with a thought, she silently took out a box of jewelry from the space storage room.

"Bang!" A loud noise!

Everyone in the room was startled, including Lan Yinlin. She had just learned how to control the entry and exit of objects with her mind, and she didn't get it right at once!

Lan Yinlin went forward and opened the box. Inside were antique jewelry boxes. She opened the jewelry boxes and found that some contained complete sets of jewelry, while others contained only single pieces of jewelry.

She said to the three of them proudly: "Dad, Mom, Grandma, come and take a look! Just choose whatever you like!"

Lan Ma asked, "What is that?"

Grandma Lan and Dad Lan only just recovered from their shock. Without waiting for Lan Yinlin to answer, they all walked over curiously to watch.

"!!!" Seeing the jewelry box opened in the box, the three of them stood there in a daze, too shocked to speak!

They felt like their eyes were about to be blinded by the glitter! Dad Lan was a man and had no feelings for jewelry. He only saw the value of the box of jewelry!

It was different with Lan's mother and Lan's grandmother. Their eyes were glued to the jewelry and they couldn't take them off. Most women, no matter what age they were, would be tempted by so many beautiful jewelry.

Lan Yinlin pointed at the box and said, "Grandma, Mom, take whatever you like. You're welcome!"

After hearing what Lan Yinlin said, the two of them no longer hesitated. They asked Lan's father to move the boxes to the table and gathered around the table to start choosing!

Mother Lan picked out all the items that were suitable for Grandma Lan, including bracelets, necklaces, earrings and earrings, all of which were more suitable for Grandma Lan's age.

I heard that jade is good for health, so I picked out a jade pendant for each of the three men in the family, and three sets of jade pendants suitable for little girls for Lan Lemin.

There is a set of light blue crystal and a set of pink pearls, which include hairpins, earrings, bracelets, anklets, necklaces, and a jade set. In addition to the items in the other two sets, the jade set also has a jade bracelet.

She chose a set made of amethyst, a set made of white pearls, which included earrings, earrings, and a necklace, and a set made of gold, which had an additional gold bracelet compared to the previous two sets.

In addition, she also chose a green jade bracelet and a white jade bracelet.

There were twenty boxes in a box. Grandma Lan got nine, Mother Lan got five, her sister got three, and the three men each got one.

The ancient costumes in the space are all for young girls, which neither Grandma Lan nor Mother Lan can wear. Lan Yinlin plans to give Lan Lemin a few sets after returning from Beijing City, so that the ancient costumes can have a reasonable origin.

"What do Xiaomin, Xiaoqi, and Xiaolin have to say?"

Lan Yinlin looked at the three people in embarrassment. Her brothers and sisters already knew that their family got the money from selling a piece of jade, but they didn't know where the jade came from.

How should she explain to them the origin of this jadeite? This is a problem she has to solve now.

Grandma Lan thought about it and gave her an idea.

"Just say that it was left by your grandfather in the safe of Haishi Bank. In addition to the jadeite, your grandfather also left a box of jewelry."

"If they ask why you only told you and not us, just say you don't know and you just did what your grandfather told you to do."

The three of them nodded. This was the best way. If you tell a lie, you have to tell more lies to cover it up. It's too easy to be exposed! It's better to blame it all on the deceased Grandpa Lan.

"That's fine! Now that we've discussed it, let's go out! Otherwise they'll get impatient waiting!"

After saying that, Grandma Lan stood up and walked out. Lan Yinlin packed her jewelry in a wooden box and helped her carry it back to the room.

While Mother Lan was tidying up her part of the room, Father Lan went into the kitchen with the space well water that Lan Yinlin had brought out.

When Lan Yinlin and Grandma Lan put their things away and came out, they met Mother Lan who had just come out. She was holding five jewelry boxes in her hands.

They should be the five chosen for the three younger brothers and sisters. Dad Lan just came out of the kitchen with a pot of tea in his hand.

The four of them came to the living room on the second floor and saw Lan Jiaqi and Lan Jialin watching cartoons in the living room on the left, while Lan Lemin was watching an idol drama alone in the living room on the right.

Lan Yinlin thought that the two of them must be having a conflict again!

Sure enough, as soon as the four of them reached the corridor on the second floor, two sharp-eyed people ran over to complain. Seeing that the four of them ignored them, they snorted and turned away, looking like no one wanted to see anyone else.

Having seen this kind of scene many times, Lan Yinlin and the other three did not try to persuade them, and the two of them would reconcile on their own after a while.

They were all called to the living room on the left, and the family chatted while drinking tea. The tea brewed with space well water was very delicious. Lan Lemin and Lan Jialin, who originally didn't like tea, drank a lot.

After drinking tea, Grandma Lan took the initiative to tell Lan Lemin and the other two the lines they had rehearsed in the room, but they didn't even ask why Grandpa only told Lan Yinlin.

Because the three of them didn't care too much. In their eyes, the eldest sister was the best at studying in the family and had even reached the top of the list! Isn't it normal to leave it to her?

The three of them were more interested in the jewelry that Grandma Lan mentioned, and excitedly urged Grandma Lan to show them.

Several people were speechless. The excuses they had prepared were of no use at all. The other party didn't care about this matter at all. It was better this way as it saved them the trouble of arguing.

Under their urging, Lan Ma gave all five jewelry boxes to them. Seeing that Lan Lemin had two more than him, Lan Jialin became unhappy and ran to act coquettishly with Lan Ma.

"Mom! Why does the second sister have two more than us? You are not fair!"

Lan's mother replied: "Because you are a boy! Boys can't carry too many of these things, otherwise they won't look manly at all."
