"Check your gift. I suspect Ning Xueluo has done something to it!" Ning Tianxin said vigilantly.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Ning Xi chuckled, moved closer to Ning Tianxin and said, "Cousin, you are really smart. There is indeed something wrong with the gift, but I have kept it close to me, so it must have been tampered with."
"What is that?" Ning Tianxin became even more suspicious.
"I don't know how Ning Xueluo knew what I gave Grandpa. The thing she gave was exactly the same as what I was going to give. Oh, of course, it must be much more expensive than what I gave!"
Ning Tianxin immediately figured out the key point, "What should we do? In this case, even if grandpa doesn't care, he can't stand the gossips of the people around him... Xiaoxi, can I help you change something?"
"No need, Grandpa doesn't care, that's enough." Ning Xi walked up to the old man with the gift, "Happy birthday, Grandpa."
Ning Tianxin was still very worried at first, but she didn't know what she thought of, she suddenly understood and calmed down.
She was really confused. Ning Xi didn't want to be the eldest daughter of the Ning family again, and she didn't covet the Ning family's property. No matter what the people around her said, it would not affect her. The only thing she needed to care about was her grandfather's attitude.
Seeing his granddaughter finally coming home, the old man was very happy even without seeing any gifts. He smiled and said, "Grandpa is already very happy that you can come back. Why would you prepare any gifts? It's not easy for you to work hard outside!"
"No matter what, it's my sister's gift from the bottom of her heart. Grandpa, please open it and take a look!" Ning Xue said, suppressing the anxiety in her eyes.
"Okay, okay..." The old man opened the gift box little by little with great care. The moment he opened the box, he was obviously startled, but he quickly recovered and looked at Ning Xi with a loving face, "They say girls are considerate, it seems that is true, we thought of the same thing, and gave you everything that grandpa likes!"
Ning Xueluo's eyes turned cold when she heard that, and she sneered in her heart, "Oh, as expected, because it was given by your granddaughter, you would like it even if it is of inferior quality, right?"
Everyone else also saw what Ning Xi gave them, and they were all a little surprised for a moment. What a coincidence, they gave the same thing
At this time, Ning Xueluo's group of girlfriends spoke at the right time...
Ying Fanglin glanced at the string of jade beads with an extremely contemptuous look, "That's not the same, right? The quality and water content of the string that Xueluo just used are both top-grade, but this one is simply worthless scraps! How can they be the same?"
Jin Xuanxuan also challenged him righteously, "Ning Xi, weren't you just poached by Shengshi Entertainment? You must have made a lot of money! And you bought this kind of defective product for your grandfather? This is your grandfather's 70th birthday after all. What's your intention in giving him such a cheap thing? Don't you know that jade is spiritual and can nourish people, but it can also harm people?"
This last sentence is so heartbreaking!
Suddenly, Ning Xi became the target of public criticism.
"Don't say that. Maybe he really is having a miserable life!" Someone nearby said with a smile.
"If you can't afford it, then give me something else. Why do you have to give me something like jade?"
"Oh, you don't know. People from the countryside are all like this. They like to pretend to be knowledgeable, and they don't know how to pretend to know anything. How can they understand the taboos of jade?"
…
Ning Zhiyuan listened to the discussions and his face became worse and worse. He was very unhappy. Just as he was about to speak, an old man wearing glasses in the crowd suddenly said in a serious tone, "My dear children, let me say something. The taboo of jade is not about its value. Moreover, there are many standards to measure the quality of a piece of jade. Even if it is a piece of ordinary jade, if it is properly nurtured, or carved by a famous artist, or consecrated by a monk, it can be a priceless treasure!"
The old man paused as he spoke, and stared with shining eyes at the string of jade Buddha beads Ning Xi gave him, "And one string can be said to be a priceless treasure!"
