Chapter 432: Birthday Present
It was not easy for someone who had been holed up at home to finally come out for a change. Wouldn’t all her efforts go to waste if they returned to square one after a quarrel?
Master Lan frowned and comforted his wife. “I don’t think so. Didn’t Chenhuan agree to have dinner with us a few days ago?”
“Who knows what will happen in the future? If they really get into a fight and are unhappy, how can they still have the mood to eat with us?”
Lan Minghan followed suit. “Mom, I saw that although Miss Su wasn’t in a good mood just now, she didn’t throw a tantrum at Uncle Chenhuan. When Uncle Chenhuan left, he said that both of them brought gifts for Grandpa. It’s obvious that they have a good relationship. That Miss Su must have heard people talking about Uncle like that and was upset because her heart ached for him.”
Mama Lan’s expression did not change. She was about to say that Chenhuan had brought a gift from both of them, but was it really from both of them? Perhaps he had prepared it himself because he doted on his wife.
Before she could finish, Yan Xiaoran exclaimed, “Gift? What gift?”
Hearing Yan Xiaoran’s question, they answered truthfully, “They said that it was handed to the butler.”
Lan Minghan saw that she seemed to want to see it, and he reminded her in a low voice, “There are so many guests here. Let’s wait for them to leave before opening it.”
Although Yan Xiaoran was curious, she knew that her husband was right. She nodded and secretly wondered if Su Yayan had given her those precious Chinese herbs.
Su Yayan did not disappoint her. After the party ended and the crowd dispersed, Yan Xiaoran asked the butler to bring over the gifts from Huo Chenhuan and Su Yayan.
Huo Chenhuan had picked a good piece of jade for Old Master Lan. It was warm to the touch and was suitable for people who were afraid of the cold.
Other than that, there was also a string of pearls, probably given to Old Madam Lan as a gift.
Su Yayan’s gift was placed under these two items in a long box. When they opened it, they were stunned.
“This is…”
Before Master Lan could finish speaking, Lan Minghan and Yan Xiaoran exclaimed in unison, “Ginseng!”
The two elders were stunned. “You know what this is?”
“Of course. It’s a type of Chinese medicine. It appeared in the livestream channel before. It’s said to be a very precious Chinese medicine that can greatly supplement one’s vitality. Even if a seriously ill patient still has a breath of life left, this thing can help to hang him and extend his life.”
“It’s that amazing?” Master Lan looked at his second son, his eyes filled with suspicion. He felt like he was boasting.
Lan Jiaye could tell what his father was thinking at a glance. He was furious.
Just as he was about to argue with him, Yan Xiaoran stepped forward and explained, “Although it might not be that exaggerated, it’s about the same effect. This research institute has given us the data, so it shouldn’t be fake. However, it’s said that the older it is, the more nutritious it is. If you really want to eat such a big root, you only need a little bit. You can’t eat too much at once.”
When Master Lan and Madam Lan heard this, they looked at the box of ginseng with more caution.
“The research institute mentioned it before, so it should be correct. We have to keep such a precious item.”
Seeing this, Lan Jiaye could not help but mutter softly, “You don’t trust me when I say it, but you believe everything my brother and sister-in-law say.”
Master Lan was amused by his words. “If you can be as sensible as your brother and sister-in-law, I’ll trust you too. You only know how to run around all day. You’re not even decent and you still want people to trust you..”
