Chapter 1702: Mr. Yuan is angry
Yuan Ze suddenly became angry and stood up and cursed: "What do you know, a country bumpkin? You..."
"Shut up! Isn't that embarrassing enough?" Yuan Jiawei saw that her father's face became even more ugly, and knew that the situation was over now.
The best way is to just shut up and admit your mistake.
"I'm sorry, grandpa, I just saw that this pearl is very beautiful. So I wanted to give it to you." Yuan Ze's reaction was not unpleasant, and he immediately found the steps.
Mr. Yuan just nodded almost invisible to the naked eye, but his expression looked a little sulky.
As the birthday boy today, I shouldn't be angry.
But my little daughter is really disappointing.
Yuan Jiawei knew that what her children did was really embarrassing when it came to gifts.
But it doesn’t matter, you can still compare.
"Dad, although the things we give are not priceless, they still represent the children's thoughts."
"And the stuff they sent was cheaper than ours."
Lu Shuang bit her lip, but she was actually speechless.
Especially as someone who knows the inside story and knows that the daughter was bought from an antique dealer for 200 yuan, how could it be so valuable?
She lowered her head.
At this time, Lin Ran glanced at Lu Xinyu, whose eyes were full of gratitude.
I originally thought that I would be humiliated by the Yuan family today, but I didn't expect that Lin Ran once again acted like a savior and stood up to help their family save [-]%.
She was about to explain her purpose, but at this moment, Mr. Xu looked at the saucer, his eyes slightly moved.
He examined Chatto carefully and then opened his mouth.
"Master Yuan, this is indeed a collection from the Old Summer Palace!"
The Old Summer Palace, one of the cultural treasures of China, experienced a catastrophe, resulting in the products inside being looted by foreign invaders.
There are still some treasures in the Old Summer Palace that have been preserved.
Some were the palace maids in the Old Summer Palace, and the eunuchs stuck to their own ways. When the emperor was not paying attention, they counted out the contents and put them on the market to sell.
Some are because some patriotic people saw foreign invaders carrying boxes of cultural relics to cargo ships, so they tried their best to steal as many as possible and hide them at home.
There are many items from the Old Summer Palace among them. After the museum was established, many anonymous people donated the stolen cultural relics to the museum.
Of course, some are still on the market.
And the saucer in his hand is one of them.
As a general who had participated in the war to defend his country, Mr. Yuan naturally hated the invaders extremely.
It was extremely exciting to see the cultural relics that were originally taken away by the invaders but were recovered.
"you sure?"
"Yes, look at this mark!"
Lin Ran felt very relieved when he heard what Mr. Xu said. He was indeed an appraisal expert of the older generation and could tell the authenticity at a glance.
Every country has its landmark buildings in a certain era, which serve as cultural benchmarks.
The Old Summer Palace is China's landmark building from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, and is China's great garden craftsmanship.
It was once known to the world as the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, and there were countless treasures stored in it.
Successive emperors loved to spend the hot summer days in the Old Summer Palace, which also left many traces of the royal family.
Through the Old Summer Palace, we can understand the rise and fall of the country.
It is a pity that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Old Summer Palace was looted by foreign invaders. They not only took away the cultural relics inside, but also burned it completely.
So much so that now only some ruins can be seen of the landmark buildings that were once highly praised by architects around the world.
If you want to get a glimpse of its full picture, you can only see the appearance of the Yuanmingyuan before its destruction preserved in long-standing photos in foreign museums.
If the cultural relics in hand are really leftovers from the Old Summer Palace, they cannot be measured with money.
"Xiao Xu, is what you said true?" Master Yuan asked again.
Seeing Mr. Xu nodding again to confirm, Mr. Yuan held the saucer in his hand and closed his eyes.
Scenes from the war that year reappeared in his mind. On the battlefield, there was blood and rain.
At that time, he was just a soldier. His team left him the chance to survive, while he rushed out to fight the invaders.
After that, he joined the large army and cooperated with the large army to annihilate the invaders. As a result, he received first-class merit and embarked on the road to becoming a general.
Scenes of memories from youth come to mind.
Times are really good now, and his youth was spent in war.
Even though the invaders were repelled, the invaders took away too much property from China, resulting in a shortage of supplies within China, and they lived a peaceful but barren life.
In the past few years, the selfless dedication of Chinese scientists, coupled with the hardworking and kind-hearted character of Chinese people, finally accumulated some supplies.
Let them live a relatively comfortable life.
Without the dedication of their ancestors, how could they sit in the hotel unharmed now, and they would quarrel over something that had no ancestors.
Master Yuan held the saucer and closed his eyes.
Unknowingly, tears began to flow from the corners of my eyes.
Grandma Yuan was so frightened when she saw this scene that she immediately took out her handkerchief: "Old Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
When other people saw Mr. Yuan crying, they were also frightened.
Everyone, including Yuan Jiahao, rushed forward. Among them, Yuan Jiaguo, the second son of Mr. Yuan, pushed Lin Ran away.
Pointing at him, he said, "You boy are in big trouble now!"
He thought that what Lin Ran said was too much and made Master Yuan feel sad.
If this were the case, the eldest brother would not be able to protect Lin Ran. They would have to teach this brat a lesson.
Many people are eager for this kind of thing to happen, and Yuan Jiawei is fanning the flames: "It's him, he's been chirping next to him, making dad cry! Yuan Hong, go beat him up!"
As she said that, her husband picked up a stool and wanted to hit Lin Ran on the head.
"Stop me all!"
Seeing the scene becoming chaotic, Mr. Yuan stood up.
His eyes were red and full of tears.
But at this moment, his majesty seemed to have returned to the battlefield.
Everyone was so frightened by his voice that they didn't dare to move. Is this the general's deterrent power?
Master Yuan took a deep breath and said in a rich voice: "Jia Wei, this is your fault. Apologize to Lu Shuang and her daughter!"
Master Yuan did not give them any chance to refute.
Yuan Jiawei also saw that her father was serious and did not dare to resist at all.
He immediately lowered his head and bowed to Lu Shuang: "I'm sorry."
Lu Shuang was originally a simple and honest girl, but seemed a bit reserved.
She quickly supported Yuan Jiawei and said, "Sister-in-law, don't say that."
