In the evening, after Song Jia and Xia Jingze returned home, the couple discussed what dowry they would give Ye Yirui.
Xia Jingze was very worried: "We don't have any antiques at home. How about giving us some shares in the company?"
“It’s too tacky.
Qiao Yu's betrothal gifts are all antiques, and our dowry list includes shares in a house, car, etc. It seems that we are too nouveau riche."
Song Jia said.
"Then what should we do? It's too late to buy it now. Neither of us knows anything about antiques. Buying a fake one will make others laugh."
Xia Jingze said.
Song Jiaren thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, let's buy an antique from Linglong, she has many antiques."
Xia Jingze was about to nod when he suddenly thought of something. He patted his forehead and said, "We don't have antiques at home, but who says we don't have high-end and tasteful things at home."
"Are you talking about the wines I treasure?"
Song Jiaren asked.
Then he added: "That's fine, they are also some old things."
"How can I touch your heart?"
Xia Jingze chuckled and lowered his voice: "Have you forgotten that we have a son who likes to collect jade?
Those are all good things from him, why don’t we go get some while he’s not at home.”
Song Jiaren: ...She looked at Xia Jingze in disbelief, isn't this a guy? He already has her son in mind.
"As a lawyer, I would like to remind you that stealing without someone else's permission is not called taking."
Song Jiaren gave a friendly reminder.
"What does stealing mean?"
Xia Jingze said confidently: "Do I call my son stealing if he wants something?
This is called giving him a chance to be filial to me."
Song Jiaren: ...Why are these men like this? The older they get, the less old-fashioned they become.
One deceives his friends in order to get a dowry for his daughter, and the other deceives his son in order to get a dowry for someone else's daughter. What the hell are they?
"Let's go, let's go now."
Xia Jingze felt that he was so clever and couldn't wait to steal his son's treasure.
Song Jiaren struggled for a few seconds and finally followed.
Xia Huaijin usually only has time to come back on weekends. She usually stays at the school or goes to her grandparents' house, and sometimes she doesn't come back on weekends.
Ever since Xia Song got married, Xia Huaijin had lived on the first floor by himself. His room was already large, and he opened up three rooms, connecting the bedroom, study room, and collection room together.
There is nothing else in Xia Huaijin's collection room. They are all jade that he has collected since he was a child. Most of them are birthday gifts, and a small part of them are bought by himself. Of course, they all cost Xia Jingze's money.
So Xia Jingze now feels at ease when he comes to steal his son's jade.
"How about this one?"
Xia Jingze touched a piece of jade and asked Song Jiaren for her opinion.
Song Jiaren said: "This piece is not good, Linglong gave it to him when he was just born, and it is still an antique.
If you take this piece, he will be angry."
Xia Jingze had no choice but to change the piece: "Where is this one?"
"He arrested Zhou on his first birthday."
"What kind of luck am I having?"
Xia Jingze complained and touched another piece: "This is the head office."
Song Jiaren twitched her lips: "This is the coming-of-age ceremony for eighteen years old."
Xia Jingze: ...It would be a pity if he didn't scratch the lottery ticket today.
"You come, you come."
Xia Jingze gave way.
Song Jiaren waved her hands repeatedly: "I can't even do it. I know the origin of every piece of jade here, let alone which one is suitable."
"What should we do?"
Xia Jingze asked.
"Otherwise, let's order some troops and generals."
Song Jiaren suggested.
"OK."
Xia Jingze started: "Point the troops and generals, and fight on horseback..." "Whoever you point is the one... Okay, it's you."
Xia Jingze took out the jade he ordered.
Song Jiaren: ...She found that Xia Jingze was very lucky today, and he could pick Xia Huaijin's favorite things at random.
She simply couldn't imagine waiting for her son to come home and find that the diamond was missing.
"What are you doing?"
You are really afraid of what will happen, just as Song Jiaren was thinking this, Xia Huaijin's voice came from behind her.
The couple were both startled, and Xia Jingze was so frightened that the jade in his hand dropped to the ground.
Fortunately there was carpet on the floor, otherwise it would have been loud.
Xia Huaijin frowned hard.
Xia Jingze quickly picked up the jade, laughed guiltily and asked, "Why are you back?
Today is not the weekend."
Song Jiaren also felt guilty and asked: "Son, have you eaten?
Are you hungry? Mom will cook for you."
Xia Huaijin is so smart, she can tell there is something fishy when she sees her parents acting like this.
"Are you bankrupt?
Are you going to steal my jade and sell it?"
Xia Huaijin inherited Song Jiaren in some aspects. She usually doesn't like to talk, but when she talks, she can choke people to death.
Both the couple were choked by him.
In the end, Xia Jingze broke the jar and said confidently: "What do you call your stuff? It was all bought with my money. I can't take two yuan."
"If I remember correctly, a few years after I became an adult, the law stipulates that parents have the obligation to support minors. If you give me money to buy things, it is called child support.
Really, Lawyer Song?"
When Xia Huaijin opened his mouth, it was the letter of the law.
Song Jiaren nodded bravely: "Yes."
I really shouldn’t have shown my son the laws and regulations from an early age.
"So you're not going to give me a serious explanation?"
Xia Huaijin folded her arms and looked at her parents seriously.
Xia Jingze:...Why is he not as majestic in front of his son as his brother Lan Cheng is in front of his son?
"Ahem, actually the thing is like this..." Song Jiaren saw that she couldn't get past the confusion, so she simply told the truth.
After hearing this, Xia Huaijin asked: "What antiques did Qiao Yu prepare for Xinxin?"
Song Jiaren took the photo and immediately showed it to her son.
Xia Huaijin took the phone and looked at it.
After a quick glance, my eyes were suddenly attracted by an antique.
The thing he had been looking for for a long time was actually on Ye Yirui's betrothal gift list.
"Isn't it spectacular?"
Song Jiaren asked.
"You said that as Xinxin's godfather and godmother, we are not allowed to buy her some dowry. You are the only one in our family who has some good things, so we are thinking of taking two yuan to make Xinxin's dowry. You can't be so stingy and refuse to give it, right?
."
Xia Jingze clenched the jade in his hand tightly, fearing that Xia Huaijin would not give it to him.
Xia Huaijin is also a biological son, and he doesn't speak softly when criticizing his father.
"If you know jade, just choose it. Not all jade is suitable for dowry."
Xia Jingze: ...Today is also the day when I want to strangle my own son to death.
Song Jiaren knew her son better. When she heard this, she immediately said: "Then you can choose two pieces for us."
Xia Huaijin agreed, and personally selected four pieces of jade with good meanings, hoping that everything would go as she wished, and gave them to Song Jiaren, asking her to use them to add to Ye Yirui's dowry.
Song Jiaren didn't expect her son to be so generous and actually picked four pieces.
Xia Jingze was afraid that his son would regret it, so he took the jade, dragged his wife and ran away.
No matter why Xia Huaijin is so generous, as long as he solves the dowry problem.
