The Beautiful President Loves Me Alone
Chapter 142: Treasures, peerless treasures!
"Master Yan, this is a little thought from our family, please accept it with a smile."
Zhang Yuzhen also noticed that Mr. Yan's attitude towards Xu Tian was not exclusive.
She didn't want Xu Tian and the others to steal the limelight, so she hurriedly took out the birthday gift she prepared in front of everyone.
"This is the ice jadeite Guanyin that we bought in the antique market. I hope you like it."
This jadeite Guanyin was bought by Zhang Yuzhen through the relationship of his good sisters. The jadeite seed water is good, and the market price is hundreds of thousands.
The Yan family is a big tree to them, and they must curry favor with Mr. Yan.
And because Xu Tian's behavior just now made their family very embarrassed, Zhang Yuzhen wanted to win the love of Mr. Yan with this rare jade ornament.
"Have a heart."
Mr. Yan didn't reach out to pick up the emerald Guanyin, but asked the person who was serving him to put it on the table where the gifts were stacked next to it.
Although he didn't say anything, Zhang Yuzhen could sense from his reaction that the old man was still satisfied with this gift.
Zhang Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief, her back was straight, and she had a feeling of raised eyebrows.
Su Weixin stared at Xu Tian who had nothing in his hands with a look of contempt, and said sarcastically:
"Xu Tian, it's the first time you came to see grandpa today, and you didn't prepare a gift at all. Did you come here empty-handed for free food?"
"Weixin, you must not be as ignorant of etiquette as he is. No matter what the value of the gift is, it is all about your heart. Although the gifts we send are ordinary in the eyes of Mr. Yan, he can feel your filial piety, Mr. Naturally, it will not dislike it.”
Seeing that Xu Tian didn't have a gift in his hand, Zhang Yuzhen would not miss any opportunity to step on Xu Tian.
"grandfather?"
Xu Tian sneered when he heard the words, and turned to look at Su Weixin: "Why didn't I know that you changed your surname Yan too?"
As soon as Xu Tian said this, the eyes of the surrounding guests looking at Su Weixin and others became subtle.
Su Weixin and Zhang Yuzhen also looked disheveled and looked very embarrassed.
If you really want to think about it, Zhang Yuzhen's family has nothing to do with the Yan family.
Su Weixin, on the other hand, called Mr. Yan grandfather in a grand manner, which was indeed a bit of a relationship suspect.
Just now, Zhang Yuzhen secretly satirized Xu Tian as an outsider, but in fact even Xu Tian was more qualified to call Mr. Yan a grandfather by Su Weixin.
"Xu Tian, you!"
Zhang Yuzhen was about to have a seizure, but was grabbed by Su Mingli next to her.
How much courage do they have to quarrel in front of the Yan family?
Zhang Yuzhen was stopped by Su Mingli, and only then did she realize what the situation was in front of her. When she thought that she was about to quarrel with Xu Tian just now, a dense layer of cold sweat instantly crept up her back.
"Su Weixin, auntie, it's better not to identify with relatives, otherwise people will laugh at our family for not having rules." After Xu Tian finished speaking, he ignored Zhang Yuzhen's family.
Families like the Yan family are indeed the most disciplined.
Compared with the Zhang Yuzhen family, who are more cheeky and involved, even if Xu Tian is only Yan Jinsong's godson, but being admitted by Mr. Yan, he can be regarded as half of the Yan family, which is indeed much more justifiable.
And no one can ridicule Xu Tian for clinging to the powerful. After all, Yan Jinsong is just an unpopular eldest son, and he was even kicked out of the Yan family company.
If Xu Tian really wanted to use the power of the Yan family to climb up, he would never choose him.
Zhang Yuzhen and Su Weixin stood awkwardly in the crowd. They could feel the mocking or contemptuous gazes of the guests around them, but they did not dare to argue for themselves.
With Zhang Yuzhen at the beginning, the guests sent gifts that they brought one after another.
However, these gifts are not precious supplements such as ginseng and deer antler, or common things such as gold and jade articles, nothing unusual.
Originally, Mr. Yan would still perfunctory a few words, but gradually, he became impatient.
Except for a few words of greetings at the gift-giving party for valuable guests, the rest will be handled by the housekeeper beside him.
Xu Tian really didn't see any rare objects on the antique street today, and finally picked up the golden rice paper and bird's nest ginseng and other supplements inherited from the century-old shop in the shop facing the street. error.
Because Yan Jinsong hadn't given the gift yet, Xu Tian couldn't have given the gift he had prepared to Mr. Yan, so he stood beside Yan Jinsong and didn't go to the seat to get the gift box.
However, at this moment, Butler Xiao suddenly walked in from outside the banquet hall, while holding a gift box in his hand.
"Master, this is a birthday gift from Master Xu Tian to you. I don't know why it was placed in the security room outside the yard. I happened to see it and brought it for him."
The smile on Xu Tian's lips froze for a moment.
It was a gift box he deliberately put in the security room, and it was an item he bought from that strange young woman. At that time, he just picked out a fancy dagger just to perfunctory the other party's entanglement.
Such unlucky things can't be given to Mr. Yan as a birthday gift, so in order to avoid trouble, he will put the box in the security room outside and plan to bring it back after the banquet.
He didn't expect that the box he put in the security room would be discovered by Butler Xiao, and he brought it into the inner house on his own initiative.
He looked sideways calmly, and out of the corner of his eye saw signs that his box had been unpacked again.
Obviously, after opening the box and checking the contents, Butler Xiao found it was a dagger, so he deliberately brought it over to frame himself.
Giving a dagger at the elder's birthday banquet would definitely make Mr. Yan furious.
Seeing the triumphant expression on Butler Xiao's trick, Xu Tian suddenly flashed a chill in his eyes.
It seems that this housekeeper Xiao must have received a lot of benefits from Yan Hongyu to do this kind of thing for him.
He came to Yan's house for the first time today, and other Yan family members must have a wait-and-see attitude towards him. Only Yan Hongyu, the guy who wants to compete with him everywhere, would try to frame him and embarrass him.
Xu Tian wanted to get the gift box back, but Butler Xiao moved faster and delivered the box to Mr. Yan before him.
"Master Xu Tian came to the door for the first time today, and he must have prepared a generous gift."
Butler Xiao calmly raised everyone's sense of expectation: "I'm also curious about what's inside."
"Master, please open it up quickly, and let us open our eyes too, shall we?"
When the other guests heard Butler Xiao's words, they all focused their attention on the box in Mr. Yan's hand with anticipation.
Since Xu Tian entered the door, he has been subverting their cognition. They can't wait to know what birthday gift Xu Tian will give to the old man of the Yan family.
So, under the expectation of everyone, Mr. Yan opened the exquisite gift box in his hand.
The moment the box lid was opened, the guests who were a few steps away from Mr. Yan gasped.
Seeing what was inside, everyone's faces were not very good.
Yan Jinsong and Su Xiuya leaned over curiously, and when they saw the objects in the gift box, they trembled and their eyes were full of despair.
In the center of the gift box, lay a dark and shiny dagger. The dagger was engraved with complicated patterns, which looked strange and gloomy.
The moment the dagger appeared in everyone's sight, everyone looked at Xu Tian with horror, as if they were looking at a monster.
After Mr. Yan saw the dagger, his breathing suddenly became short and his body trembled slightly. He raised his head and looked at Xu Tian with the sharp eyes of an eagle.
Before Mr. Yan could speak, Zhang Yuzhen made a preemptive strike.
"Xu Tian, this bastard, on such a happy day as Mr. Yan's birthday banquet, you actually gave him a murder weapon to celebrate his birthday. What's your motive?"
"Xu Tian, you are too vicious, even if he is not your grandfather, you can't curse him like that!"
Su Weixin was also afraid that the world would not shout in disorder. That kind of distressed expression, even the best actor in China, would be resigned to the disadvantage.
The old men sitting beside Mr. Yan were also prominent figures in Jiangshui City.
They also looked at Xu Tian in confusion, as if they didn't believe that this generous and decent young man could do such a treacherous thing.
Don't say it's a big day like a birthday, even if you give gifts on New Year's and festivals, you can't give a scary weapon like a dagger.
Xu Tian sensed the anger of the old man Yan, his heart sank, and he explained calmly:
"Grandpa, what is in this gift box is not a gift I want to give you.
"You still dare to quibble?"
Zhang Yuzhen jumped out again: "Butler Xiao said just now that this is a gift from you to Mr. Yan, do you still want to deny it now?"
"I really didn't expect you to be such a vicious person. The old man was happy to celebrate his birthday, but you gave him such a disgusting thing. Isn't this intentional to cause trouble!"
Zhang Yuzhen was aggressive and even tried to involve Yan Jinsong and Su Xiuya.
"Sister, brother-in-law, how do you usually discipline your children? It's too outrageous to do things one by one?"
"It's still true that Xu Tian did this, you instigated it, and you still hold grudges because of what happened back then..."
"Enough!" Yan Jinsong interrupted Zhang Yuzhen unbearably: "Don't spit, how could I encourage Xiaotian to send a dagger to curse my father?"
He didn't expect Xu Tian to send this kind of thing, so he turned his head and asked with a serious expression.
"Little Tian, what's going on?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Tian, as if they wanted to hear how he explained.
Xu Tian's face darkened slightly, but on the surface he was as calm as always without any panic.
Yan Hongyu would plot against him on this occasion, which he did not expect.
If he couldn't give a reasonable explanation for giving the dagger, there would be no way to end today.
Just as Xu Tian's brain was running fast and he was thinking about countermeasures, Song Lao, who was sitting next to Mr. Yan, suddenly said:
"Bring me my reading glasses."
Song Lao took the reading glasses handed over by others, and then reached out to the box, as if he wanted to take out the dagger inside.
"Song Lao, don't take the unlucky things, let's throw them away!"
Zhang Yuzhen approached on her own initiative and reached out to grab the gift box, but Song Lao slapped it away, "Don't move!"
Zhang Yuzhen retracted her hand embarrassingly, and whispered with a look of dissatisfaction:
"Isn't it just broken copper and iron, what's so beautiful..."
Old Man Yan and the other old people around him also looked at Old Song with a look of surprise, as if they couldn't understand what he wanted to do.
At this time, Song Lao had already taken out the dagger from the box and observed it carefully with his reading glasses.
After a while, Song Lao suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly:
"Treasures, peerless treasures!"
