"This is the birthday gift you prepared for grandma?"

Looking at Lin Bei in front of her, Fang Xinyidai's eyebrows furrowed, and the frost on her pretty face became a little heavier again.

Usually her husband is unreliable, so she puts up with it.

But what day is it? The old lady's seventieth birthday.

He actually carried a crucian carp bought from the vegetable market to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, doesn't this clearly make the old lady angry?

"Sister Xinyi, don't be so angry, Lin Bei is not enough to succeed and more than one or two days, everyone has long been used to it."

"Grandma, how can you let this waste into our ancestral house? The days of great joy were ruined by him. ”

"Giggles, I heard abroad that Sister Xinyi found a good husband, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation!"

"Cousin, I think it's because you usually give your cousin-in-law too little pocket money, so he doesn't have the money to prepare a birthday gift, anyway, everyone in Qincheng knows about him eating soft rice, there is no need to hide it, give a little more next time."

“……”

Several Fang family juniors sneered, and the atmosphere in the hall became a little delicate for a while.

The endless laughter, like sharp needles, all fell into Fang Xinyi's ears.

She clenched her fists tightly, her nails were about to dig into the flesh, and an inexplicable grievance came to her heart.

Looking at Lin Bei's eyes, there was even more anger and resentment.

Three years ago, despite the opposition of her family, she married Lin Bei with a certificate.

This incident caused a sensation and caused a stir in Qincheng.

After all, Fang Xinyi is the goddess that countless people dream of, and Qin Cheng doesn't know how many rich children want to win her heart but are turned away.

Lin Bei, on the other hand, is an unknown waste.

After getting married, Lin Bei did not disappoint everyone, and played the useless waste son-in-law to the fullest, eating and waiting for death all day long, and even having no serious work, which became a joke talked about by Qincheng people.

Because of this marriage, Fang Xinyi made Mrs. Fang very unhappy, and even bluntly disdained this son-in-law.

So much so that in the past three years, everyone in the Fang family has excluded their family.

Today, finally Mrs. Fang allowed her to take Lin Bei back to her ancestral house to celebrate her birthday.

Fang Xinyi wanted to take this opportunity to save Lin Bei's image in the old lady's mind.

But now, it's all ruined!

"Grandma, don't be angry first, Lin Bei knows that you like to eat fish, so he will buy a fish and want to make soup for you to drink."

Looking at the old lady Fang on the main seat, whose face was getting more and more ugly, Fang Xinyi explained with a flustered expression.

At this point, she just wanted to appease the old lady as much as possible.

"Really? Does he still have this heart? Old Lady Fang's face softened a little.

Seeing this, Fang Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Quickly nodded and said, "Yes, grandma." Lin Bei has been learning cooking skills for a long time, just to surprise grandma. ”

As he spoke, he gave Lin Bei a look and asked him to cooperate with him.

"Grandma, why does this fish look weird? It can't be a sick fish, right? Even the scales are yellow. ”

At this moment, Fang Ningbing, another granddaughter of the Fang family, spoke.

I saw her frowning, covering her nose with her hands, and snorting with disgust on her face.

Only then did everyone notice that the fish in Lin Bei's bag was indeed different from ordinary crucian carp.

The scales on the gills of the fish turned out to be golden yellow.

"How good can this kind of fly market-bought fish be? Could it be that he was greedy for cheap and bought a fish that was dying, right? ”

"Take this fish for grandma? What kind of heart do you have? Didn't you want to murder your grandmother? ”

"Fang Xinyi, when you were a child, your grandmother spoiled you the most and loved you the most, how did you be filial to your grandmother?"

“……”

In the hall, the pot exploded all at once.

Everyone's spearhead was pointed at Lin Beixiao.

"I ...... How could I murder my grandmother? Don't talk nonsense! ”

was buttoned up with such a big hat for no reason, Fang Xinyi was about to cry in a hurry.

However, her defense was as weak as a grain of sand falling into the sea, and she was soon drowned in the spittle of everyone in the Fang family.

"Grandma, for your safety, you can't eat this fish! Some people have had a bad time in the past few years, and their hearts are unbalanced, and who knows what they will do. ”

Fang Ningbing pursed his lips and snorted angrily.

Although she did not name her, everyone understood who she was talking about.

"Grandma, don't listen to their nonsense...... I didn't ......."

"Shut up!"

Old Lady Fang's face was gloomy and terrifying, she glared at Lin Bei fiercely, and said in disgust: "I thought that after three years, this man would grow a little, but I didn't expect that it would still be as useless as back then!" ”

This marriage made the Fang family the laughing stock of the entire Qincheng.

And the culprit is Lin Bei.

So in the past three years, Mrs. Fang has never given Lin Bei a good face.

"Why don't you throw this pile of garbage out of me, don't be embarrassed here!"

After speaking, he went directly into the back hall.

Seeing this, the rest of the Fang family showed gloating expressions and watched the joke on the sidelines.

"I really deserve it, I didn't marry such a good marriage back then, but I have to marry such a waste."

"Hmph, in the past three years, the Fang family's face has been lost! We've lost all our faces! ”

"What is wrong with me, why do you have to bring a broken fish back and send it to Hanako?"

“……”

Fang Xinyi stood in place, biting her pink lip hard, tears rolling in her eyes.

Although he was already mentally prepared, this time he took Lin Bei back to his ancestral home, and he was inevitably pointed at by his relatives and poked his backbone.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the gate of the ancestral house, she couldn't bear it.

Self-righteous and strong, at this moment it seems vulnerable.

For the first time, she realized how vulnerable she was.

"Don't cry."

Lin Bei handed over a tissue.

"Don't worry about it!"

Fang Xinyi slapped Lin Bei's hand away hard, knocked the tissue on the ground, and the grievances in her heart broke out all of a sudden, and her pretty face was covered with tears:

"I said don't take that fish, don't take that fish, why don't you listen to me?"

"Grandma doesn't like you, I spent three months preparing gifts for grandma, just to make a good impression in front of grandma, but now it's all ruined by your broken fish."

"You must have done it on purpose, you deliberately wanted me to lose face in front of my relatives, right? Now that grandma is angry, are you happy? Satisfied, right? ”

“……”

Lin Bei fell silent.

He bent down, picked up the piece of paper on the ground, and muttered, "That fish, it's not sick." ”

"Even if you're not sick, what's the use? Will grandma believe it? Will the rest of the Fang family believe it? They will only think that I did it on purpose. ”

Fang Xinyi was even more aggrieved and angry, and said indignantly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think about it that much."

Lin Bei silently lowered his head and whispered: "Your cold has flare up again in the past two days, I just want to make a bowl of fish soup to warm your body and make you more comfortable." ”

"You ......"

Fang Xinyi's beautiful eyes widened, as if she had been electrocuted, and turned her head to look at Lin Bei.

Three years ago, she had an accident.

Since then, I have contracted a strange disease, and from time to time I will be cold, as if I am in an ice cellar, and I will be in great pain.

I have seen many doctors, but they are helpless about this disease.

She didn't expect that Lin Beida would go out to buy fish in the morning, but it was for herself.

"Forget it...... You don't have to tell me I'm sorry, it's not your fault in the first place. ”

After three years of marriage, the two of them slept in separate beds, and they have never been husband and wife.

On weekdays, he has never looked at Lin Bei squarely, and he has all kinds of cold words, and he throws fire on the other party from time to time.

But Lin Bei had no complaints about this, but worked hard and took care of himself.

Thinking of this, Fang Xinyi felt that she was a little selfish and too harsh.

"Aren't you going to make fish for me? You hide the fish first, don't let grandma see it, and we'll take it home to eat when the birthday feast is over. ”

Now, the old lady is angry, and if she continues to disobey her, it will only add fuel to the fire and add chaos to the chaos.

I can only find an opportunity to explain it to the old lady later.

"Well, listen to you."

Lin Bei nodded in agreement.

……

Although the Fang family is now in decline, it was once a well-known wealthy family in Qincheng.

In addition, Mr. Fang was very popular during his lifetime, so there is an endless stream of people who come to congratulate Mrs. Fang on her birthday today, and the congratulatory gifts are even more dazzling and valuable.

At this moment, the hall was bustling with activity, with everyone gathering around a huge fish tank, and from time to time there were exclamatory sounds.

There is a koi fish more than one meter long in the fish tank, and the scales around it show a colorful pattern, like a 'diamond', dazzling.

"Wow, this is the first time I've seen such a big koi."

"That's a lot of money, isn't it? Hundreds of thousands, right? ”

"Cut, this is a gift from Dr. Li, a world-famous marine creature, and you can't buy it with money."

“……”

In the crowd, there stood a middle-aged man with politeness and glasses.

He smiled slightly and explained: "This koi is called auspicious Ruyi koi, which was resold to me by a friend of mine abroad a few days ago, symbolizing the meaning of longevity, and the current market price is about 880,000. ”

"Eight hundred and eighty thousand!"

"How can a fish be sold for such an expensive price! Catching up with the semi-suites? ”

"Wow, that's Dr. Lee."

There was another exclamation from the crowd.

One fish, more than 800,000.

Even for these people of the Fang family, it was quite incredible, far beyond their understanding.

"Don't underestimate the value of fish, even the most common crucian carp has rare treasures."

"Not long ago, I held an auction overseas, which was full of rare fish, and the value of any one taken out was no less than that of this auspicious koi."

As soon as this remark came out, it once again caused an uproar.

An 880,000-year-old koi is beyond everyone's knowledge, but I didn't expect this precious fish to have a special auction.

That's true...... Poverty limits the imagination.

"Dr. Li, you said that crucian carp also have treasures? It just so happens that we also saw a very special crucian carp today, why don't you help identify it? ”

At this moment, Fang Ningbing suddenly spoke.

She glanced at Fang Xinyi, who was not far away, and showed a malicious smile: "Sister Xinyi, hurry up and take out the fish that Lin Bei brought." ”

Fang Xinyi was slightly stunned, and her face changed greatly.

She didn't expect this cousin to suddenly attack her, and in front of all the guests.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on themselves.

"...... It's been thrown away. Fang Xinyi replied stubbornly.

What kind of treasure can an ordinary crucian carp bought in the vegetable market be?

This cousin of mine is obviously deliberately finding fault.

"Is it really lost? But I just saw it in the kitchen. The corners of Fang Ningbing's mouth raised, and he shook his phone proudly: "No, I took a small video." ”

What the?

Fang Xinyi's face changed drastically, and she turned pale.

The whole person staggered backwards and almost fell to the ground.

Now, it's over!

"Grandma, Xinyi and the two of them have begun to openly disobey your orders, and even hid the fish in the kitchen of the ancestral house, I'm afraid they have ulterior motives!"

After listening to Fang Ningbing's words, Old Lady Fang's face was covered with dark clouds, which was very unsightly.

The people of the other Fang family gloated on the sidelines, preparing to watch the play.

In the Fang family, no one dared to disobey the old lady.

Xinyi did this three years ago, and she dared to do it three years later, she was really looking for death!

"I don't know what kind of crucian carp it is, can you show me?" Dr. Li didn't know what was going on, and he was immediately interested.

Fang Ningbing hurriedly handed over the mobile phone, if Dr. Li, a professional, could personally identify this fish as a diseased fish, and see how Fang Xinyi could quibble.

"Dr. Li, you have to see it clearly, if it's really a 'treasure', don't hide it!"

As he spoke, he glanced away triumphantly.

Fang Xinyi was so nervous that cold sweat broke out in her palms, and her heart was about to reach her throat.

Although she believed that Lin Bei would not harm her grandmother, if this fish was really a sick fish sold by unscrupulous merchants, she would really jump into the Yellow River and not be able to wash it.

Don't have a problem!

Dr. Li glanced at it casually with a faint smile on his lips.

Naturally, he didn't think that this crucian carp would be any treasure, and the reason why he came to identify it was purely out of face.

But, the next second.

His face changed dramatically, as if he had been electrocuted, his fingers trembled, and his pupils suddenly shrank, condensing into one point:

"Actually...... It turned out to be a silver-threaded golden-scaled crucian carp! How can it be! ”
