Reborn sparrow becomes phoenix

Chapter 24 Grandma's Gift

"Wow, grandma, you are so eccentric. I have been walking with you, drinking tea, eating, chatting, and watching TV for so many years, but I have never heard you ask for salary!" Jia Kai and Jia Luo who changed their clothes went downstairs together. Come on, one sentence will amuse everyone.

Seeing Jiakai, the old lady snorted, "I have changed your diapers, fed you, bathed you, picked you up and sent you to kindergarten, and apologized to the children you bullied. How much salary do you want to pay me? !" Everyone laughed even harder, waiting to see how Jia Kai would reply.

"Grandma, I was wrong, I'm sorry, I apologize, you just forgive me this time, I kowtowed to you." Jia Kai pretended to be a slave, and bent his knees to take it as a kowtow. "

Everyone laughed and stopped fussing with him.

"Go and call my sister, Xingye is eight days older than you." Yu Jiakai pushed his younger brother Jialuo, his tone sounded like gloating.

Xingye took a close look at this boy who was also 16 years old. He was much taller than him and stronger than his brother Jia Kai. His face was somewhat similar to that of his aunt, and the childishness was still evident. Standing in front of him at this moment, he could even feel his tenderness. Uneasy, do you make him afraid?
"She looks younger than me, she almost calls me brother." After staring for a long time, Jia Luo shouted.

Knowing that he was embarrassed to call, my aunt deliberately made fun of him, "Originally you were supposed to be the elder brother's, who made your aunt give birth prematurely, more than 30 days early, and you stayed in the mother's belly until the day did not come out, there is no way, this If you don't, your older brother will become your younger brother."

"Counting the pregnancy in October, I am still older"

How can it be calculated like this!

"How about this, I'll call you Jialuo, you don't need to call me sister, you can just call me by my name, okay?" Xingye suggested.

"Okay, let's do this. You will be my younger sister from now on. Don't worry, I will protect you. If someone bullies you, I will take revenge for you." Jia Luo patted his chest and promised.

Xingye tilted her head, she only said that she didn't need to call him elder sister, but she didn't say that she should call him elder brother, his comprehension ability was too weird.

Talking and laughing all night passed. Before leaving, my aunt secretly gave her an envelope with 5000 yuan in it. "Go and buy something you like, and use the rest as pocket money. Tell aunt after you spend it." The carefree aunt actually has a very meticulous side, she also knows that Xingye may not like the things she buys, it is just to satisfy her own hobbies.

No Xingye, my aunt pressed her hand, "Don't make uncle and aunt feel more guilty, accept it, we will feel better."

Xingye tightly held the money in his hand, and watched his uncle and aunt leave.

Lying on the bed, Xingye recalled what seemed a very long day, what a lovely family, Xingye found that it was only a short day, and they made themselves agree with each other, and the worries in their hearts disappeared.

Dudu knocked on the door, "Xingye, are you asleep?" It was grandma's voice.

Xingye ran to open the door and asked grandma to come in.

"Grandma, you still haven't rested so late? Pay attention to your body."

"It's okay, people feel less when they get older." Grandma sat on the bed, and Xingye saw that she was carrying a bag in her hand.

"Come, be next to grandma." Xingye sat down next to her.

Grandma didn't speak, and took out a black lacquer jewelry box from her bag, which was exactly the same as the one her mother left for her.

"It was a pair back then. Your mother wanted one. Give this to you, so that the pair can stay together." Grandma said while touching the jewelry box.

Xingye took out her mother's original one from the drawer, put the two boxes together, and the patterns on the box surface connected to form a complete picture of flowers and birds.

"It was given to me by my teacher when I got married. It has a history of more than 100 years." Grandma explained looking at the two jewelry boxes.

"It's really exquisite, and the paint is still so bright after such a long time." Both boxes are in good condition.

"Good things can never go wrong." Grandma opened the box she brought. "I have a gift for you"

A pair of jade bracelets, one of which was obviously broken, was reconnected by wrapping jade with gold.

The bracelet shone green under the light, Xingye never knew that green could be so gorgeous and dazzling, picked it up carefully, even if Xingye didn't understand jadeite, he could see that such crystal clearness should be the best among jadeites.

"It's so beautiful." Xingye couldn't help but praise.

Grandma looked at Xingye's obsessed expression and smiled, "Your grandpa gave it to me back then. It's an old thing. Your mother liked it as much as you did back then. She was still young at that time, and she always secretly took it out to read it. It fell on the ground, broke one, and later invited the master craftsman of Liuhelou to inlay it, so it can be carried."

Unexpectedly, my mother would be naughty and get into trouble when she was a child.

Grandma took Xingye's hand and put it on her wrist, "It was supposed to be given to your mother, and your mother will give it to you again. Your mother left early, so I can give it to you directly. It can be regarded as a gift for grandma."

"Grandma, this is too precious, I can't take it." Xingye knows an old saying that gold has jade but there is no jade, which means that good jade is a priceless treasure. Xingye often went to jewelry stores in her previous life, but she has never seen this pair of bracelets. It’s so good, I’m afraid I can’t buy even one pair of bracelets for more than 20 yuan. Although I don’t understand it, I know that it’s even more impossible to measure if it’s an antique. What’s more, the meaning of giving it to my grandma by my grandfather is even more different. .

"Is it expensive or not? I'm old and my eyesight won't be worth a penny if I lose my grip one day and fall."

"But this is a different meaning for grandpa to send you!" Xingye said anxiously

"That's just a child's talk. We have been an old couple for decades. What does the relationship have to do with this bracelet? What is meaningful? If he didn't give me this bracelet back then, wouldn't we be able to grow old forever? If you can pretend to be the other party, there is no place to put on these extraneous things, the girl tells you, don’t put the cart before the horse, and forget what is the most important.” Looking at Xingye’s thoughtful look, grandma said again: “You are young, Some words can’t be understood so deeply, so you don’t need to think about it deliberately, and you will understand it when you gradually have a rich life experience.”

"Grandma, you are so wise, what you say is so meaningful, I admire you so much." Xingye looked at this open-minded and sensible old man with admiration.

Grandma chuckled, "I just ate more rice for decades. Isn't there a saying that makes a person grow old?"

"Grandma, you are not an old man, are you an old fairy at all? No, it is a fairy descending to earth."

"What fairy, are there any fairies with wrinkled faces?" Grandma laughed from ear to ear.

Xingye jumped out of bed, pointed to the photo on the wall and said, "I'm not talking nonsense, look, she's more beautiful than a fairy."

"Little sycophant, he will make me happy, and he taught Jia Kai to be so glib in just one day." Grandma's words were full of doting, but the big hat of teaching bad sister was put on Jia Kai's head.

Grandma looked around the room, "This guest room is too small, and the furniture is not complete, and a lot of things need to be added."

"Grandma, don't bother, as long as there is another desk." Xingye quickly stopped.

"How can a girl's room work without a dressing table? Don't worry about it. I'll design it. Go to bed early. You've been tired all day."

"Then grandma, you should go to bed early too, good night."

After sending grandma out, Xingye put the bracelet and the 5000 yuan into the jewelry box.

I can't help but feel lucky for myself, my grandma's family is easy to get along with and loves me.

Xingye hugged the jewelry box tightly in her arms.

Mom, have you seen it all?My daughter is doing well, and my grandparents are doing well, don't worry!how are you in heavenAre you with Dad? Starry night misses you, misses you.
