“Since it’s Elder Qiao’s birthday, shouldn’t the main character be Elder Qiao? The elder miss dressed casually in order to not steal Elder Qiao’s spotlight. She is being so considerate, yet you misunderstand her and think she’s treating Elder Qiao with disrespect. Blarg, I didn’t think about this before, but thinking about it now, the elder miss may actually get treated poorly here. Even her auntie targets her like this.”
Qin Yongmei’s face froze.
Others nodded in agreement silently. That was true. It was the old man’s birthday today, not this kid’s.
Why was it necessary for her to dress up like she was attending a ball?
After all, she was only a high school student. The casual and refreshing way Qiao Qing dressed was very pleasant.
Qiao Zhizhuo gave Qin Yongmei an unhappy glare. Then, he waved his hand at Qiao Qing, “Come here to grandpa.”
Qin Yongmei gritted her teeth and then smiled in response, “I was being close minded. But what you said was a little harsh. I’m her aunt, why do I need others to tell me how she’s being treated?”
Then, she gently coughed, gave Qiao Nian a look, and gestured for the maid to bring up the gift they prepared.
She narrated, “This is the birthday gift Niannian and I went to pick out especially for your birthday. Niannian knows how much you love to play Go, so she picked out this set.”
Then, she removed the silk cloth that covered the gift and revealed the Go box underneath.
Everyone at the scene gasped.
The Go box was completely golden – it was obvious that it was made out of pure gold. Outside, it was decorated with different jewels, looking absolutely blinding!
The box itself was already precious!
Qin Yongmei sensed everyone’s reaction and she proudly lifted the corner of her lips.
She opened up the box, showing everyone the content inside.
The Go stone bowls were open, showing the round and smooth stones inside.
“These stones are yunzi infused with high quality ores. These have a jadeite content over 90%. Not only are these comfortable to use, they can also nourish the body. Though these are a little expensive, Niannian said that her grandpa deserved the best!”
“Wow~”
Everyone couldn’t help but exclaim. What a generous gift!
A lot of normal people also have yunzi. However, theirs are normally fashioned with amber, or agate.
There were people who had jade infused yunzi. But those normally only have 0.1% of jadeite.
Yet the set of stones before them had a jadeite content as high as 90%!
Meng Chunhua checked out this luxurious looking set of Go pieces and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Niannian sure knows how to pick out gifts! Even I feel happy looking at this!”
Qiao Zhizhuo nodded as well, “You really put in effort for this.”
Qin Yongmei was dancing on the inside. She put the lid back onto the box and then gave He Wanqing a look.
“What did my sister-in-law and Qingqing prepare for father? Take it out and show everyone.”
He Wanqing acted calm but her hands were covered with sweat.
When Qin Yongmei announced that her gift was a Go set, He Wanqing’s heart clattered.
After Qin Yongmei had showed everyone, He Wanqing wanted to crawl into the ground.
She regretted she hadn’t sent Chen Ming to go and buy a new gift.
Even if the gift came late, it would be better than that broken set.
But since everyone was staring, she had no time to hesitate.
He Wanqing tightened her fists and gestured for Chen Ming to come up, “Dad, we are also gifting you a set of Go pieces.”
“Wow, what a coincidence.” Qin Yongmei saw that He Wanqing had no plan on showing everyone, so she asked dubiously, “Aren’t you going to give it to father?”
Before He Wanqing could react, she herself lifted off the red silk cloth on top of the Go set.
The mustard colored wooden box that had marks all over entered everyone’s sight. Everyone at the scene laughed at the reveal.
