The old lady looked at Shen Cong carefully for a long time, and finally laughed, and asked Yuan Lu instead: "Ah Lu, what do you look like?" It's a pity, it's not that I want to marry you. ”

Yuan Lu was angry, she was teased like this, and completely turned into a little girl, she pursed her lips anxiously, Shen Cong's request was that Yuan's and He's cooperate, and the gift was already on the table, and she couldn't decide, so she just lowered her head and gritted her teeth and said, "Grandpa thinks it's okay." ”

It means that it is up to the old lady to decide whether to repay this big favor.

After all, the old lady is also a person who has been galloping in the business field for decades, and he also knows the risks of doing so, so he nodded and covered up this matter temporarily: "Thank you for the kindness of the Shen family, this matter of cooperation is not a trivial matter, you let me, an old bone who has retired, discuss with these young people." ”

But the old lady's implication is already obvious, that is, there are many people now, and it is not suitable to agree on the spot, which not only damages the face of the Yuan family, but also makes the Shen family easy to be eyed by, today's protagonist is the Yuan family, and it is not in accordance with the rules to be robbed of the limelight by the Shen family.

Shen Cong understood, nodded and said, "Then wait for the old lady and Miss Yuan's decision." ”

Yuan Lu immediately answered: "The birthday banquet will be carried out as usual, if you have gifts, you can send them first, and it will not be too late to do other matters later." ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone understood, and immediately called the people they brought to quickly get the birthday gift. The old lady and the members of the Yuan family sat on the chairman, smiling and talking with everyone.

Shen Cong's goal was achieved, and he also walked into the crowd, and when he passed by Yuan Lu's side, he laughed and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Miss Yuan, you should pay more attention to the people around you in the future." ”

Yuan Lu clenched his fists, snorted coldly, and approached the chairman.

Gu Chengze took advantage of the mixed crowd, and was not in a hurry to let Zhou Youlan pick up the gift, but carefully moved to the chairman with the pregnant Shu Wangyu, and after the other greetings left, he bent over to the old lady with Shu Wangyu: "I wish Grandpa Yuan a good life, the ode to Jiuru, and the pine and cypress are evergreen." ”

The old lady has liked Gu Chengze since he was a child, and when he saw him, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile: "Aze, why didn't you come just now?" ”

Gu Chengze is indifferent and indifferent on weekdays, but at this time, he also abides by the politeness of a junior, extremely respectful and obedient, and even Shu Wangyu is the first time to see him so well-behaved. Gu Chengze smiled cautiously and replied respectfully: "The elders come first, Grandpa Yuan is talking to others, and it is inconvenient for me and Wangyu to come over and disturb." ”

Only then did the old lady notice Shu Wangyu behind Gu Chengze, because Shu Wangyu was slender and petite in high heels, standing behind Gu Chengze, he was covered by most of it, and at this time Shu Wangyu walked out generously, bowed respectfully, and his attitude was extremely sincere: "Grandpa Yuan is good." ”

Gu Chengze reminded him that he would call him whatever he wanted, after all, Gu Chengze was more comfortable with the old lady, and Shu Wangyu could only follow Gu Chengze's advice.

The old lady also heard Yuan Lu mention Shu Wangyu, and nodded with a smile: "It's a good boy, Aze has also reached the age of talking about marriage." ”

When Shu Wangyu heard this, his face turned red, but Gu Chengze was very calm, and just responded lightly.

At this time, everyone's gifts had already been taken over and the birthday celebration officially began, and Gu Chengze and Shu Wangyu politely stepped aside.

However, the crowd stood in a dense pile, and no one dared to be the first to stand up and give gifts first. It was quiet for more than a minute, and no one brought gifts. The people of the Yuan clan did not speak, according to the rules, the host mainly let the guests, so it was not their turn to wait until all the guests were finished.

A laugh suddenly came from the crowd, and then a hearty male voice sounded: "Since this is the case, the Ji family will come out to explore the wind first." ”

I saw that Ji Yunzhe, who Shu Wangyu had never seen before, walked out of nowhere, holding a box in his hand, and after saying a series of routine birthday greetings, he said with a smile: "I had already prepared a blue and white porcelain in the Song Dynasty, but I went to Italy a few days ago, and the old lady guessed what I found?" ”

Ji Yunzhe specially sold a pass, and the old lady looked at him happily: "What is it?"

Ji Yunzhe chuckled lightly and opened the lid of the box, on it was the blue and white porcelain of the Song Dynasty that Ji Yunzhe said, which was preserved intact, and at a glance he knew that it was purchased from the family, and now it is already difficult to find an intact blue and white porcelain, let alone the Song Dynasty?

Ji Yunzhe placed the blue and white porcelain firmly on the multi-treasure grid of the gift shelf, and then uncovered a layer of dark grid from the inside of the box. The crowd standing inside exclaimed: it was a helmet from the ancient Roman period.

People with a little insight immediately knew that this was a collection of a museum in Rome, and they didn't know what method Ji Yunzhe used to get both the blue and white porcelain vase and the collection. But thinking about the financial resources of the Ji family and the Gu family, it is naturally effortless to get these two.

Thinking of this, everyone was even more looking forward to what kind of things Gu would come up with.

The old lady said a few words of "yes" in a row, and thanked him again, Ji Yunzhen nodded respectfully and retreated. When he walked down, he deliberately glanced at the little sister of the Yuan family who was sitting next to the old lady, and chuckled, the little sister of the Yuan family was already looking at him intently, and when she saw this scene, she immediately lowered her head.

However, the Gu family did not appear with the Ji family, and without waiting for Ji Yunzhe's gift to be placed, He Yue walked out. He and He Qian each prepared a gift, a Bengal cursive script, which is also the treasure of the museum, and a Latin American sapphire, which are all rare treasures, compared to the Shen and Ji families in front, it is indeed slightly inferior, but it can also be seen that its intentions.

Subsequently, everyone put out birthday gifts one after another, for more than an hour.

Shu Wangyu was pregnant, her legs were sore after standing for too long, and she was so tired that she couldn't do it, Gu Chengze had been looking at the guests who gave the gift, and he had no intention of doing this, seeing that Shu Wangyu was tired, he took Shu Wangyu and let her lean on herself to relieve the fatigue of standing for too long. Shu Wangyu leaned forward without any objections, making the people around him make fun of him.

Shu Wangyu glanced up, and sure enough, He Qian was looking at this with a tiger's eye, and when He Yue heard this, he only glanced at it lightly, quickly looked away, and pulled He Qian to tell her not to be rude.

All of you in this hall have their own minds in their hearts.

Shu Wangyu ignored it, looked at one treasure after another, and became worried again. Gu Chengze hadn't told her anything about the gift, and he didn't know if it would be messed up.

At such times, her adaptability is particularly tested.

Shu Wangyu looked at the chairman, the old lady is an old man after all, and he has seen many gifts without new ideas, but in the first twenty minutes, he has already closed his eyes quietly to recuperate, probably because there are no refreshing gifts, the old lady has not opened his eyes, and has always been the Yuan couple to do it on his behalf. As a result, everyone's morale was slightly frustrated.

Until this one put his gift on the table, no one came up again for more than ten seconds.

Yuan Lu looked at the list, except for his own clansmen, there were only the Gu family and the Shu family left, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, only you and Miss Shu are left." ”

Gu Chengze nodded, turned around, and signaled Shu Wangyu Later, he had already arranged for someone to hand over the gift to Cui Chongshan, and Shu Wangyu only needed to take the gift from Cui Chongshan. He took the jade Buddha covered with a red silk scarf from Zhou Youlan's hand and strode forward.

Gu Chengze looked at the old man who closed his eyes and paused: "Grandpa Yuan, I heard Ah Lu say that you have been missing Grandma Yuan a little lately. ”

The noisy hall was instantly silent.

"He's crazy?"

"Gu Chengze doesn't seem to look at people's faces."

"What is he going to give? Aren't you afraid of the old lady's anger? ”

Yuan Lu was also extremely nervous, he didn't expect Gu Chengze to mention this matter, let alone confess himself.

Hearing this, the old lady slowly opened her eyes and looked at the jade Buddha in his hand.

Gu Chengze lowered his eyebrows and unveiled the red silk scarf, a jade Buddha with emerald green and good color was faintly shining green under the light, as if in the next second, this jade Buddha would be able to manifest and speak.

Shu Wangyu was also nervous, she didn't expect Gu Chengze to prepare such a gift, so it seems that the gift he prepared for himself must also be a mistake, if Shu Wangyu doesn't know him, what should he do?

The nerves of the Yuan couple were tensed. In the past two years, the old lady's mood of missing his wife is obvious to all, at first, the people of the Yuan clan still thought about how to miss the old lady, but the old lady was obviously unhappy, and no one dared to mention the old lady again, but I didn't expect it......

Yuan Mu reprimanded softly: "Aze, no polite ......"

The old lady waved his hand, stood up in person, and refused the support of the little sister of the Yuan family and Yuan Lu, and slowly stepped forward, the old man's voice trembled slightly, and the old man who was still energetic just now seemed to be old in an instant: "It's been seven years......"

And all the people understood what it meant. The senator has been dead for seven years.

Gu Chengze also had a faint sadness in his eyes, and leaned down to match the old lady's height, "Grandpa Yuan doesn't have a Jade Buddha in his house, right?" There is always a need for a Buddha statue. ”

There is always a need for a Buddha statue to see things and think about people, and there is no way to escape from it.

There was a whispered sobbing sound from the chairman, it was the Yuan mother who was crying quietly, and the little sister of the Yuan family, Yuan Qi, was comforting, and the atmosphere in the hall became heavy.

The old lady personally took the jade Buddha and put it in front of his position, staring at the jade Buddha for a long time, and the sobbing voice of the mother gradually subsided.

The old lady suddenly laughed: "This is the best birthday gift I have received in so many years, Aze, I have a heart." ”

The originally dull atmosphere of the hall was broken in an instant, Shu Wangyu was the same as everyone else, the originally tense heart fell in an instant, and the hall became noisy again, Gu Chengze just smiled faintly and bowed.

Gu Chengze continued: "Grandpa Yuan, Miss Shu still has gifts." ”
