    Guan Xi: "..."

    Chapter 23

    Guan Xi now knows the reason why Guan Ying bought this necklace, and now she understands why she kept bidding at the auction just now.

    It turned out that she had the same mind as her.

    But even so, she still couldn't let it go. She's not that kind and generous, and she also wants her mother's favorite things to be given away by herself, not by anyone else.

    Later, after reading all the lots, Guan Xi did not leave immediately, but went to the backcourt to say hello to Yang Mingzhi, the initiator of the auction.

    Yang Ming knew that he was in his fifties, but he was very energetic, and dressed in a refined manner, he looked like he was in his forties.

    "Uncle Yang."

    Yang Mingzhi saw her and greeted her: "Xixi is here."

    "Yeah, I haven't seen you for a long time."

    Yang Mingzhi smiled and complained, "It's not like you don't have time to visit my old man."

    "Uncle Yang fifty-one flowers, what kind of old man, I don't like to hear it."

    "You just know how to coax people." Yang Mingzhi said and nodded to Jiang Suizhou, "Suizhou, you have collected a lot of things tonight."

    Jiang Suizhou: "It's because your things on the court today are good."

    Yang Mingzhi gave Guan Xi a meaningful look: "But the most profitable thing today is this little girl."

    "How can there be." Guan Xi said, "Oh, by the way, Uncle Yang, it's my mother's birthday in a few days, will you come?"

    Yang Mingzhi greeted the two of them to sit over: "I still have something to do, so I won't go."

    "Come on, you haven't been home for a long time."

    Yang Mingzhi didn't answer, he just asked, "How are you doing recently? How are you getting along with that older sister?"

    Guan Xi spreads his hands: "It's okay."

    Guan Xi said plainly, but Yang Mingzhi has heard a lot of rumors recently, "Xixi, no matter what, Uncle Yang watched you grow up. If you have any grievances at home, you can tell me."

    "No, the family is fine." Guan Xi said, "Listen to the rumors outside."

    Guan Xi obviously didn't want to mention those things, and Yang Mingzhi could see it. So he didn't say any more after that, he just greeted Guan Xi and Jiang Suizhou for a while of tea.

    A few days later, Wei Shaomin's birthday.

    Wei Shaomin didn't like to hold birthday parties, so the family had a meal at home on his birthday.

    After dinner, the family of four sat in the living room. Guan Xinghao took out his own gift first, and after he gave it, it was the turn of the two little ones.

    "What gift did you two prepare for your mother?" Guan Xinghao asked.

    Guan Xi joked: "Dad, we must have prepared better than yours. You are a little careless in giving this silk scarf."

    "Nonsense, Dad is also very serious about choosing whether it is good or not." Guan Xinghao glanced at Guan Xi, "You show me what you bought."

    Guan Xi raised her eyebrows and asked Aunt Zhen to bring the gift. She put the necklace she photographed that day in a delicate box and opened it in front of Wei Shaomin.

    As soon as the box was opened, everyone's eyes were attracted by the luster inside.

    Wei Shaomin saw the necklace inside, and his eyes lit up: "It's this necklace..."

    Guan Xi said: "Yes, Mom, don't you like this necklace very much? I heard that this necklace will appear at the auction, and I immediately went to shoot it."

    Wei Shaomin really liked it, but this necklace was taken away by others at the auction a few years ago, and since then, have never encountered such a favorite.

    "Xixi has a heart." Wei Shaomin touched her head, "I like it very much."

    For a time, my heart was full of joy, and Guan Xi felt that it was all worth it.

    Guan Ying was stunned when she saw that Guan Xi gave this necklace: "No wonder Mr. Jiang doesn't want to sell it, it's Xixi, you want it."

    Wei Shaomin looked at Guan Ying: "What does this mean?"

    Guan Ying smiled and said, "That's right, I also went to the auction that day, um... I didn't know you liked this before, so I kept bidding with Mr. Jiang that day, but I still couldn't get it."

    Wei Shaomin was surprised and asked Guan Xi, "Is there really such a thing?"

    Guan Xi glanced at Guan Ying and nodded: "Jiang Suizhou took it. I thought of giving it to you as a birthday present, so he gave it to me."

    Guan Ying: "I thought you liked it so much, Mom, but I couldn't take it. It's a pity. But now that it's in Xixi's hands, it's fine. Whoever gives it to you will give it away anyway."

    Wei Shaomin smiled: "You child, how do you know that I like it."

    Guan Ying: "I just heard it from my grandmother some time ago."

    Wei Shaomin was very pleased: "You both have hearts."

    Guan Ying: "But it's not easy to take out my present now. Compared to this chain, it's far inferior."

    Wei Shaomin glanced at her: "Nonsense, whatever you give your mother likes."

    Guan Xinghao: "That's right, it's all intentions."

    Guan Ying was a little embarrassed, and took out the things she prepared from the drawer. It was a string of bracelets and beads, which were not rare.

    After Guan Xi glanced at it, he relaxed a little.

    "This is what I asked for at the temple a few days ago. I know it's not something precious, but it's just a few thoughts that I entrusted to me. I hope my mother can be healthy and happy for a lifetime."

    Wei Shaomin: "A few days ago? You said you had something to do in those two days, so you went to the temple?"

    "Yeah... If you want to be sincere, then I'll go there to fast for two days."

    "Hey, you kid..."

    Guan Xixin raised it again.

    After all, her gifts don't have so many sustenance and feelings... they are purely expensive and beautiful.

    Guan Xi frowned, but it is so expensive that it is comparable to Guan Ying's incredible Buddha light...

    Although she didn't eat fast and recite Buddha for two days, she was also full of filial piety towards Wei Shaomin's preferences. Besides, Guan Ying's first choice is this necklace, so her necklace must be the best gift?
