Chu Weiran's face was happy, his eyes kept looking at the Maitreya Buddha, he originally liked to play with some antique jade, and the imperial green Maitreya Buddha given by Mu Bai was directly sent to his heart.

"It's so green."

"Crystal clear, natural, good jade!" Several old comrades-in-arms of Chu Weiran spoke out in admiration, and their mouths made 'tsk' sounds from time to time.

Chu Weiran was very helpful when he heard the words of these old friends, and he couldn't help but be even happier.

Mu Bai looked at Old Man Chu's face in his eyes, he was gentle and elegant on the surface, and he was very modest, but in fact, he was very proud.

"Jade Maitreya Buddha represents auspiciousness, generosity and tolerance to relieve sorrow, smile often to sweep away bad luck, Mu Bai, this child is also considered to have a heart." Chu Yingying on the side showed a relieved expression, and nodded to Mu Bai from time to time, his eyes full of approval.

"Father, at the beginning of the year, you weren't still complaining that you couldn't go to Myanmar to bid for that rough stone, but now it's okay, Mu Bai has a filial piety, and it's all carved and sent to you." Chu Haoxiong, who was the fourth in the Chu family, shook his head and said with a sigh.

At this time, Chu Luoyan's father Chu Tianxiong set his eyes on Lu Xuan, after all, compared to Mu Bai, this is the future grandson-in-law hand-picked by the old man, if he is empty-handed or the birthday gift sent is too much worse than the Maitreya Buddha, then Lu Xuan should be embarrassed.

And Chu Luoyan didn't know why, he was worried about Lu Xuan in his heart, as if he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself here.

Just after Mu Bai gave the birthday gift, several brothers of the Chu family sent the prepared birthday gifts to the old man Chu in turn.

According to the seller, this jade wrench once belonged to an expeditionary general of the Yuan Dynasty, and the mottled lines on the jade surface were the traces left by the general.

The birthday gift of the second Chu Zhenxiong is a knife coin of the Qin Dynasty, which is the circulating currency of the Qin Dynasty, cast in bronze, and looks like a machete that has shrunk countless times, with a thick layer of rust spots on the surface, which has been handed down for thousands of years.

The old three Chu heroes dedicated an inscription to the old man of Chu, which was inscribed after Marshal Yuan restored the imperial system during the Republic of China, with four big characters on it, the pen was heavily dyed and the pen was sharp and vigorous, but it was a pity that Marshal Yuan said that the emperor abdicated in less than three months, but especially so, this inscription still has a high collection value.

The birthday gift of the fourth Chu Haoxiong is a baby's fist-sized superb bloodstone, which is the top stone for making seals, and such a small piece costs six or seven hundred thousand.

All are worth a lot of money, even Chu Luoyan also presented a picture of Zheng Banqiao's "Bamboo Picture of the Hidden Courtyard", Zheng Banqiao is good at painting bamboo, the bamboo is unyielding on paper, extraordinary, is one of the most outstanding painters in modern times, and his works will be auctioned and robbed in the present world.

However, Chu Luoyan was able to get a painting of Zheng Banqiao, which proved that she was not inferior to men's outstanding ability.

The smile on Old Man Chu's face never stopped, and he received several birthday gifts with high value and high collection value in succession, and a flush of excitement appeared on his cheeks.

Seeing these things, Lu Xuan's heart moved, and he wanted to say that this Chu family is indeed a wealthy family, and every birthday gift given to Old Man Chu is expensive.

Mu Bai stood next to him and was secretly proud, because no matter whether these people from the Chu family gave antiques or famous paintings, the value was not as good as his Maitreya Buddha, and the most important thing was that some juniors of the Chu family had already given birthday gifts to the old man Chu at this time, and there was no gift on the scene, only Lu Xuan was left.

He just wanted to see Lu Xuan make a fool of himself, so he deliberately said: "I don't know what birthday gift Mr. Lu prepared for Grandpa Chu, can you take it out for everyone to see." ”

Mu Bai's words made everyone turn their attention to Lu Xuan, and they were also looking forward to what Lu Xuan would send with great interest.

Chu Xiaoxiao fell behind the person, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and he said with a sly smile: "Lu Xuan definitely can't take out any good things, you look at his clothes, obviously he has no money!" ”

This was obviously intended to embarrass Lu Xuan, and Chu Luoyan next to her did not refute it, she knew Chu Xiaoxiao's naughty and mischievous character, this was just telling the truth, but she also wanted to see what Lu Xuan was going to give to her grandfather.

Lu Xuan ignored Mu Bai's provocative eyes and aggressive tone, jumped off the beam clown, walked up to Old Man Chu without even bothering to look at it, and took out a ring from his pocket.

The ring is a silver ring, with a rough and shoddy appearance, like a bargain sold in a silverware shop in a rural town.

Everyone was stunned, and when they saw the appearance of the ring, someone immediately let out a sneer.

"Lu Xuan, you are too disagreeable, since it is a congratulatory gift, you should put some effort into packaging it, what kind of system is this!" Chu Haoxiong, the fourth elder of the Chu family, pretended to be surprised and reprimanded.

"Lu Xuan, just like Mu Bai said, this birthday gift is mainly about the heart, and the amount of money spent is not the most important thing, but you can't just use a ring that I don't know who has worn it to make up the number, right?" Chu Yingying shook his head and said, with a hint of disdain in his tone.

For a while, most people began to whisper, pointing the spearhead at Lu Xuan, and the eyes that looked at the ring were disdain and disdain.

Chu Xiaoxiao, who was standing behind, covered his mouth and smiled: "This Lu Xuan is too interesting, how can you get that thing out?" Hahaha... It's completely out of the ordinary. ”

Chu Luoyan heard Chu Xiaoxiao's laughter, and he was also puzzled.

Chu Tianxiong, the boss of the Chu family, frowned, and when he saw that the situation was not right, he hurriedly stepped forward, put his hand on Lu Xuan's shoulder, looked around at everyone and said, "Lu Xuan has just retired from the army, so he shouldn't have much time to prepare for his birthday. ”

After speaking, Chu Tianxiong whispered next to Lu Xuan: "Lu Xuan, the old man's birthday gift will be prepared for you later, quickly put this thing away." ”

"Everyone, don't be busy talking, the owner of the ring hasn't opened it yet, the silver hairpin that was auctioned off by Sotheby's auction house for 20 million was also tattered, but it wasn't worn by the Empress Dowager Cixi, maybe this ring also has a big history?" Mu Bai said with a sneer.

Hearing Mu Bai's words, the people present sneered in their hearts, he was killing Lu Xuan.

The higher he held, the worse Lu Xuan would fall!

"Shut it all up!" Chu Weiran raised his eyebrows angrily and scolded loudly.

All the cynical people immediately closed their mouths in amusement, and even Mu Bai didn't dare to continue to make a mistake, and the scene suddenly became quiet,

The moment he saw the ring, Chu Weiran seemed to have been struck by a bolt of lightning, his body was like a stone sculpture that had been unable to move for a long time, and even his complexion froze.

Lu Xuan sent the ring to Chu Weiran's hand, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Chu, the ring you left my grandfather forty years ago should now be returned to its original owner!" ”

Old Man Chu's face froze for a long time, his hands trembled and he took the silver ring handed by Lu Xuan, and finally his cheeks rose with a ruddy luster, he laughed excitedly, and said in a loud voice: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, this ring finally came back!" This is the most precious ring, this is the wedding ring I used to have with my wife! ”

As soon as Chu Weiran's words fell, everyone was dumbfounded.

The ring turned out to be the wedding ring of Old Man Chu!

Mu Bai just said that the ring might have a great origin, but it turned out to be true by him.

For the old man Chu, this ring is simply a priceless treasure, a hundred times more precious than the silver hairpin worn by the old Empress Dowager Cixi.

For a person like Old Man Chu, who has been self-made since the hard times, how can there be a second wedding ring in his life.

Mu Bai's face turned white, and his face was ugly like a clown standing next to Old Man Chu.

"When I was fighting on the frontier, there was a lot of artillery fire, and this ring fell into the pile of corpses for some reason, and I didn't dare to look back at the time, after all, I could be killed by artillery fire at any time." The more Old Man Chu spoke, the more excited he became.

"I didn't expect Lao Lu to help me find it, that is, the battle separated the two of us, he entered the jungle to fight guerrillas, and I retreated to the border of China with the large army."

"Now, he's really got it back!" Old Man Chu's eyes were slightly moist.

Saying that, Old Man Chu put on the ring, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "Now I will feel at ease, even if I go to the underworld, I can explain to my wife!" ”

After Chu Weiran finished speaking, the people who had just laughed at Lu Xuan all looked embarrassed at this time, and they stood still, for fear that they would be reproached by Old Man Chu because of what he had just said.

Chu Tianxiong and several other Chu family brothers looked at Lu Xuan with complicated eyes, because the ring that Lu Xuan gave was definitely of great significance to their Chu family.

Chu Yingying and Chu Haoxiong remembered what they had just said, their faces were embarrassed, and their mood was as uncomfortable as swallowing flies.

Chu Tianxiong clearly felt the old man's joy, turned his head to Lu Xuan and said sincerely: "Lu Xuan, thank you for bringing back this vital thing for our Chu family. ”

"No thanks, this is what my grandfather told me to do." Lu Xuan waved his hand and said politely to Chu Tianxiong.

It seems that Bai is worried, Chu Luoyan thought to herself, a pair of smart eyes quietly stayed on Lu Xuan, and a faint charming smile appeared on her face.

"Sister, I didn't expect this Lu Xuan to be quite scheming, he knows how to play the emotional card, you look at grandpa's current appearance, he is even more excited than when he just received Maitreya Buddha." Chu Xiaoxiao stood next to Chu Luoyan, touched Chu Luoyan's arm with her elbow and whispered.

Lu Xuan knew that he had guessed correctly, Grandpa Chu really took a fancy to this ring, and when he was proud, Old Man Chu took his hand and said cordially: "Come, follow me to the study, I also have something to give to you!" ”

On the side, Mu Bai's face was pale, and a pair of eagle-like eyes glared at Lu Xuan as Chu Wei left, quietly clenching his teeth, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out.
