Chapter 14 Green Jade Hairpin

".Twenty years ago, I came to see you." The old man was invited into the private living area on the second floor. As soon as he sat down on the sofa, he was attracted by this sofa with a sense of "age"——

The sound startled him.

I probably thought I had collapsed.

Zhu Xiaozhou smiled awkwardly, trying to explain that the sofa had always been like this.

The old man continued, "But at that time, your grandmother pointed at the infant child and said, this is the person you are looking for -"

Twenty years ago, this was no wonder.

"Whether you believe it or not, before he died, my great-grandfather specifically told me to go to Qiyundang in HD to find a girl named Zhou Xiaozhu——"

The old man looked even more embarrassed than Zhu Xiaozhou.

I'm afraid Zhu Xiaozhou doesn't believe what he said.

".I know."

Although I didn’t expect how to reasonably explain this relationship.

But in fact, the time error in this relationship was indeed caused by Zhu Xiaozhou himself.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief and became more certain that the young girl in front of him was exactly the person he was looking for.

Zhu Xiaozhou felt secretly happy. In this case, this old man was here to give money...

How much will you give her?

I saw the old man calmly taking an exquisite and small brocade box from the assistant beside him.

Zhu Xiaozhou frowned. This brocade box looked familiar, and how much money could be put in such a small box?

But when the old man opened the box and placed it in front of Zhu Xiaozhou——

Zhu Xiaozhou could see clearly this time.

Inside the box is a green jade hairpin! The shape is simple and simple, the lines are smooth, and the style is——

It doesn't look like a modern thing.

"This is -" Zhu Xiaozhou wondered, could this be their thank you gift?

After all, she gave me a bag of silver coins back then!

That’s a whole hundred yuan worth of Yuan Datou!

"My surname is Zheng. My great-grandfather said that when he was a child, his family was in a state of poverty. In order to treat his seriously ill grandma, he stole a woman's money bag. He was chased to his place of residence and caught.

Here we are." The old man said.

These are the original words left by his great-grandfather.

Speaking of that young woman, after learning about his situation.

Instead of blaming him, she helped him bury his grandmother.

After that, he handed him a whole bag of silver coins, encouraged him to be brave and optimistic about money and his sister, and sent him to Guangdong to find his father.

This led to many subsequent events in their family.

"Grandpa said that before parting, he asked the woman her name. The woman told him that her name was Zhou Xiaozhu, and she opened a Qiyundang restaurant in HD."

Uncle Zheng told Zhu Xiaozhou that it was with that money that his great-grandfather found his father in Guangdong. Through the hard work of the father and son, a solid foundation was laid for the future generations.

The Zheng family started their business in Guangdong.

Later, descendants opened the family business all over the country.

"My great-grandfather's father once wanted to move the graves of the elderly in the family to Guangdong. He specially asked someone to do Feng Shui, but several Taoist priests who invited him said it was best not to move the graves because I was buried there.

The location of my great-grandfather’s grandmother is an excellent Feng Shui treasure land. It is also because of the blessings of that piece of land that the descendants of our family will enjoy endless glory and wealth.”

That was the geomantic omen that Zhu Xiaozhou chose for his family.

"But, I made an agreement with your great-great-grandfather at that time that I would lend him the money." Seeing that the other party had not mentioned the repayment of the money, Zhu Xiaozhou lost his patience and took the initiative to bring it up.

Uncle Zheng was startled for a moment, and then asked in a daze, "Why, didn't your grandma tell you?"

"My grandma?"

Zhu Xiaozhou was confused. What does this matter have to do with his grandmother?

"say what?--"

Mr. Zheng explained, "Oh, it seems that I forgot to tell you."

Then he mentioned that his great-grandfather went to HD in his later years, looking for Qiyundang, after working hard in his youth and building a family fortune.

It's just that at that time, the owner of Qiyundang was neither Zhu Xiaozhou nor Zhu Xiaozhou's grandmother.

But Zhu Xiaozhou’s grandma’s grandma——

I just told him that you were early.

So, before he died, he called his beloved great-grandson to him and asked him to find Zhou Xiaozhu who lived in Yundang again——

But when he grew up and was busy taking over the family business, he once forgot his great-grandfather's instructions.

When I returned to my hometown in Bengbu in middle age to worship my ancestors, I suddenly remembered.

So, I found HD and also found Qiyundang.

The owner of Qiyundang at that time became Zhu Xiaozhou's grandmother.

Unexpectedly, she pointed to an infant girl and said——

"This is the person you're looking for."

Zhu Xiaozhou was speechless for a moment.

I heard Mr. Zheng say again that after he explained his intention to Zhu Xiaozhou's grandmother, Zhu Xiaozhou's grandmother actually believed him.

"She just said that Qiyundang is about to go bankrupt due to poor management. Since I am here to repay my kindness, it will be the same to anyone. In the end, she will rely on Qiyundang to raise you."

so--

"You, you gave her the money?!" Zhu Xiaozhou was heartbroken.

I was twitching in pain, Qian——

That's what she got back with a bag of silver coins!

Grandma, just, she was completely fooled like that?!

And she had never heard her grandma mention this matter since she was a child!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have given away the bag of silver coins.

But then again, if she hadn't given away the bag of silver coins, there would have been no old man Zheng coming back to repay his kindness. Her grandmother couldn't keep Qiyundang, and she was still in her infancy——

They may not even be able to be fed.

But Zhu Xiaozhou couldn't care less about these logic now, he just felt that his heart was chilling——

The huge sum of money that I have been waiting for for so long is gone!

The dream of getting rich overnight was shattered——

If heartbreak had an echo, it would be, "My money—"

Suffering such a blow, Zhu Xiaozhou tried his best to cheer up, and his ears felt like thunder crashing and rumbling.

With a trembling voice, she asked Old Man Zheng unwillingly, "How much did you give my grandma at that time?"

"Thirty million." Old Man Zheng was very calm.

Even 30 million was still a huge sum of money for him at that time——

However, it can be imagined that if "Zhou Xiaozhu" had not helped his great-great-grandfather in the beginning, the Zheng family would not be as prosperous as it is today.

Of course, there is another reason.

Thirty million——

Zhu Xiaozhou felt that the lightning strike she received in one day had paid off for all the evil deeds she had done in her life.

That’s thirty million!

"But these 30 million are also redemption money." Old Man Zheng mentioned an old incident.

Then, his eyes led Zhu Xiaozhou to look at the green jade hairpin.

This was what he paid for at that time——

At that time, his ambition was as high as the sky, and he wanted to be a painter more than taking over the family business.

Thirty million - what he redeemed was his dream.

"Your grandma said she couldn't take my money for nothing, so she asked me to use the money as a redemption." Old Uncle Zheng looked at the green jade hairpin in the brocade box with great pity, as if he was looking at a lover.

According to Zhu Xiaozhou's grandmother's request, he redeemed the green jade hairpin.

From then on, his career and dreams flew together, not only making the family business bigger and stronger. Even his paintings were once considered to be beyond the level of masters and were highly praised.

But what the world doesn’t know is that all this is thanks to this team——

Green jade hairpin.
