“Uncle, look at what you’re saying. It’s as if we’re some man-eating monster.”
“That’s right. It wasn’t easy for Xiang Yin to find a girl he liked. How could we lose this marriage?”
Hearing their promise, Elder Xiang’s expression softened slightly. He turned his head and his gaze inadvertently landed on the small wooden box Gu Man had sent over. He became interested in this little thing.
Although he didn’t lack anything, it was still a gift that a girl had carefully picked out for him, so he still took the wooden box.
The others were also curious about Gu Man’s gift.
“I wonder what gift Gu Man gave him.”
No matter how well they maintained it on the surface, there were still some people in the crowd who could not help but feel jealous.
“It’s not certain if she can enter the Xiang family. I’m afraid she’s some broke creature.”
When Elder Xiang heard that it was getting increasingly worse, he glared at the woman that said that. When that woman saw Elder Xiang’s murderous gaze, immediately, she did not dare to speak.
Elder Xiang carefully opened the wooden box. He thought that even if it was just a worthless thing, as long as she had good intentions, it was fine.
Unexpectedly, when he opened it and saw the jade bracelet inside, Elder Xiang’s eyes widened and he took out the jade bracelet with trembling hands.
“It’s Fu Lu Shou!”
When the others saw the appearance of the jade bracelet, they were immediately shocked.
Although it was not that the Xiang family could not afford to buy Fu Lu Shou, it was too difficult to obtain it. It was based on luck to be able to find it. However, Gu Man casually gave them a jade bracelet.
It also proved that she had enough jade in her hands to make a perfect jade bracelet.
The fact that there might be some leftover jade from the process of making the jade bracelet made it difficult for the people around them to calm down.
Moreover, the Fu Lu Shou was of excellent quality and was not ordinary. It could even be said that the Xiang family did not have Fu Lu Shou of such good quality.
Elder Xiang looked at the bracelet in his hand and his heart sank. Before she came, he had already investigated the Gu family. He thought that she was just a daughter who had been oppressed by the Gu family. He did not expect Gu Man to be more complicated than he had imagined.
“This gift is too precious. I have to find a chance to return it.”
When Elder Xiang said that he wanted to return the gift, the others did not refute. After all, the value of Fu Lu Shou was obvious. If they did not return the gift, it would show that the Xiang family did not have any etiquette.
“We were in a hurry today and didn’t prepare any gifts. We actually got Gu Man to give us such a big gift and we haven’t returned it. If word gets out, I wonder how outsiders will laugh at our Xiang family.”
Xiang Li pondered for a long time. Hearing the words of the surrounding people, she stood up at this moment.
“Grandpa, I’m going back to Han City soon. Why don’t you let me handle it?”
The others had businesses in other cities, and there were not many people in Han City. Elder Xiang looked at Xiang Li and thought for a long time before agreeing.
“Our Xiang Family doesn’t lack money, so you have to carefully choose the gifts. You can’t let others think that our Xiang Family can’t even give a decent gift. As for money, you can spend it as you wish. I’ll reimburse you.”
Just Elder Xiang’s words alone could show how much he valued Gu Man.
It was not because the gift Gu Man gave him was too precious that he mentioned returning the gift in front of so many people. Actually, there was another reason. Elder Xiang also wanted to beat those people with ill intentions.
He wanted them to see Gu Man’s status in his heart so that they wouldn’t have any thoughts that they shouldn’t have.
“Okay.”
After Gu Man brought Xiang Yin across a muddy ground, they arrived at a small wooden house. This wooden house was really a little dilapidated. There was an old man standing in front of the door, he looked like he was fetching water.
She raised her feet and walked over. After taking a few steps, the old man seemed to have heard the commotion here. He turned around and when he saw Gu Man again, his eyes were filled with excitement. However, when he saw Xiang Yin, who was beside her, he hesitated, not knowing if he should go forward.
In the end, Gu Man took the initiative to come to the old man.
“I’m here to see Guo Guo today..”
