The next day, Xiang Jin was teasing her children on the bed. Suddenly her cell phone on the bedside table rang. Yan Chen handed the phone to her, "Lei Jia's phone number."
Xiang Jin reached out to take it, and then pressed the answer button, "Hello, Lei Jia?!"
"Xiang Jin, I heard you gave birth to a baby?" Lei Jia's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xiang Jin said, "Han Che told you, right?"
"Well, why didn't you tell us when you gave birth to the baby? Do you think we are friends?" Lei Jia's tone was slightly reproachful.
Xiang Jin said, "Why don't I regard you as friends? I was in such a hurry to have a baby that I didn't bother to bring a phone with me. My phone was always left at home, or my grandma and grandma came this morning.
They were brought here when the hospital visited us.
I was originally going to call you, but our child woke up, so I took care of him."
Lei Jia followed up and said, "I'm joking with you, don't take it seriously? Your baby is born, I'm really happy for you. From now on, you have become a mother. Congratulations to you and your husband!"
Xiang Jin said, "Thank you!"
Lei Jia then asked, "I heard that your family has given birth to a son. How is it? Which of the two of you does the child look like? Is it you or your husband?"
Xiang Jin said, "More like my husband."
Lei Jia joked, "It seems like your family's genes are not as strong as your husband's family?"
Xiang Jin said, "That's not necessarily the case. The child is still young. He looks like my husband now. He might look like me later."
Lei Jia said, "That's true. It hasn't grown yet, and the child's appearance is uncertain. I really can't say for sure. But no matter which one of you two your son looks like in the future, he will definitely not be as good-looking.
It will be good, he will definitely be a handsome guy again in the future."
Xiang Jin said, "Then let me lend you some good words."
"Oh, I really want to come over and see you two, but I can't leave. It's annoying me to death!"
Xiang Jin said, "It's okay. You are busy with your work. When I am out of confinement, I will take my child to Shanghai for a few days. Then we can meet in person."
"Okay, okay, then I'll wait for you, huh?" Lei Jia immediately responded happily, and followed her, "Actually, our company hasn't been very busy recently, but I just can't ask for leave, so I can give it to others.
That’s the bad thing about working part-time, you don’t have free time.”
Xiang Jin said, "I told you a long time ago that I asked you to come out and do something on your own, but you are unwilling."
Lei Jia said, "It's not that I don't want to. You also know that with my level of cooking skills, if I open a small restaurant by myself, I will definitely not be able to open it. My mother and grandma don't
I am willing to open a restaurant here in Shanghai, so I can only work in the company by myself."
Then Xiang Jin asked tentatively, "Hey, you never thought about finding someone to drive with you?"
Lei Jia said, "Who are you looking for?!"
Xiang Jin said, "Looking for a boyfriend."
Lei Jia said, "How can it be so easy to find? Today's society is all about money and interests. As you know, I am not outstanding in appearance, height, average ability, and average family conditions. Who is willing to pay for it?"
Come and invest a large amount of money with me to make food?
Unlike you and your husband, I grew up together. We all know each other well and understand each other, and you two have outstanding abilities since you were young. I think you two were born to be together."
Xiang Jin said, "You are belittling yourself, aren't you? What's not outstanding about you? Although your appearance is not that of a big beauty, you are definitely Xiaojiabiyu type, very attractive, and you are also 1.6 meters tall. This height is similar to
There may be a big difference between Lin Zi and I, but among the height levels of our Chinese people, they are definitely not considered short. Many people are over 1.5 meters tall. You can be quite tall if you wear high heels of a few centimeters.
.
You said your abilities are average, but how are your abilities average? You can now receive seven to eight thousand yuan a month as a monthly salary, which is already amazing among office workers, right? You see, there are many people in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
The current salary of ordinary employees in Shenzhen can only be a thousand yuan or less. In the mainland, the monthly salary of people in our provincial capital is only a few hundred yuan. You are really amazing.
Okay?
You said your family's conditions are average. How are your family's conditions average? Your mother and grandma all own small restaurants. Although they can't earn tens of thousands or ten thousand a day from their jobs, they can still earn a few hundred yuan a day.
In terms of money, you can still have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars in a year.
Such savings are beyond the reach of many families in rural areas and cities. Moreover, your family also has a three-bedroom fully paid house in Shanghai, with very good conditions.
, Girl, so don’t say that you are average in everything.
Many people whose conditions are not as good as yours have found people with much better conditions than them and married. So, be more confident. You really have very good conditions. Confident women are more attractive and can live better.
Brilliance.”
"Yes, I understand," Lei Jia responded on the other end of the phone, and then asked her, "Hey, when will you be discharged from the hospital?"
Xiang Jin said, "Tomorrow."
"Okay, then you will take good care of yourself, and I will apply to the leader to try to see you," Lei Jia said.
Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, no need, you will be deducted for asking for leave."
Lei Jia said, "Hey, it's okay. Just deduct the money. I can still afford it for a few days' salary. I always wanted to visit you during your pregnancy, but I couldn't find the time.
.
It sounds a little ridiculous. We workers are actually busier than you bosses, but in fact it is like this. Either you have to go on a business trip, or the company won't approve the leave, and even if it does, the company won't give you more approval.
It takes a long time, so I don’t have time to do any personal things I want to do.”
Xiang Jin said, "We can all understand these, so you don't have to think too much."
Lei Jia said, "No, it just so happens that I haven't rested for a long time. I will take this opportunity to give myself a holiday."
Xiang Jin said, "Okay, then you can come when the time comes. I will have someone pick you up at the airport."
"good!"
After Xiang Jin and Lei Jia ended the call, they looked at Yan Chen and said, "It seems that there is really a distance between her and Han Che?"
Yan Chen said, "I can tell that your classmate has a low self-esteem and doesn't have much self-confidence. She may think that Han Che's conditions in all aspects are much better than hers, and she feels that she is not worthy of Han Che.
"
Xiang Jin said, "It must be a little," and the moment she looked up, she saw Yan Chen looking at her with a joking expression. Xiang Jin asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Chen said, "Our Mrs. Yan said that confident women are more attractive, and my husband agrees."
Xiang Jin suddenly felt dumbfounded, "Why did I think you were looking at me?"
The corners of Yan Chen's lips raised, and Xiang Jin urged him, "Go and deal with your work?!" After saying that, she picked up her phone again and started rummaging, "I'd better make a few calls.
Call me to let everyone know that my baby has been born."
"Okay, let's go handle the work," Yan Chen glanced at her, the smile in his eyes became even stronger, and then he stood up and walked towards the sofa not far away.
In the past two days, Yan Chen directly asked Chen Zicong to send the work he wanted to handle here.
The next day, Xiang Jin's grandfather came back from Shanghai, and in the afternoon, Xiang Jin's mother, her aunt Ouyang Xue, Yan Chen's aunt Yan Shu, and Yan Chen's father also came together
, then there will be a big family in the house, and it will be very lively.
Although Grandpa Zeng and Grandma Momo don't dislike Yan Chen and his father Yan Xiao very much, they still give face to Yan Chen and Xiang Jin. After all, they have become grandfathers and come to visit their grandson. They have that level of blood connection.
The relationship is there, they can't deprive others of their family affection, right? So apart from being indifferent to him, the old couple welcome others with enthusiasm and joy.
"Oh, look how cute and adorable this little one is." Xiang Jin's mother couldn't take her eyes away when she saw the child, and her heart suddenly softened. This is her grandson, the first one.
Where is the grandson?
Yan Chen's aunt also had a look of affection in her eyes, "Yes, look at how beautiful this child is. He and our family Chen Chen are almost engraved in the same mold. Look at this fair and soft skin. I
I have never seen anyone’s child so beautiful from birth, even Chenchen’s skin was red and wrinkled when she was born.”
Xiang Jin's mother said, "Yes, Xiao Jin and his brother were as skinny as little monkeys when they were born."
Xiang Jin said, "I don't even think about how much fruit and seafood I ate when I was pregnant with him. I never stopped eating cherries, kiwis, and blueberries. My grandparents, as well as my grandparents,
They buy it for me every day
We come back to eat several kinds of seafood products, such as sea fish and lobster. These are common foods on our family table. Auntie, when He Rui gets married and becomes pregnant, you will also get her more of these foods to eat. These are real foods.
It’s good for kids.”
Yan Chen and his aunt nodded, "Yes, I don't think you're that fat at all, but the height and weight of the child you give birth to are pretty good."
Xiang Jin said, "We all strictly follow the doctor's instructions, that is, eat more fruits, vegetables, fish and protein foods, as well as whole grains, and eat less rice and noodles, especially porridge, so these are all
The nutritional intake of the child is hidden in the belly, but at the same time the mother's weight will not gain too much.
The day after I gave birth, I heard that a woman in our hospital also gave birth to a baby. She usually likes to eat white rice, white noodles, and soft-boiled eggs, and everyone in her family eats them every meal.
Give her a lot of food. The family members say that only if the mother eats enough will the child in her belly grow well, and she thinks so too.
Later, she gained weight and her weight soared to more than 160 kilograms, but the child she gave birth to weighed only three kilograms, and the child later lived in an incubator."
Xiang Jin's mother and Yan Chen's aunt both nodded and said, "It seems that pregnancy still requires science."
Xiang Jin said, "That's right. When our baby was born, his weight was 6.8 pounds and his length was 5.7 centimeters. The head and waist circumferences are still within the standard. The doctor said that a baby with this length and weight is ideal.
.”
Her mother and her aunt nodded again.
Xiang Jin and her aunt came in from outside and said, "Let me see, let me see." After seeing the child, she also liked it very much, "Oh, he is indeed a beautiful little guy. Now he is
She looks like this, but I don’t know what she will look like when she grows up."
Xiang Jin stood aside and said, "I don't know, it's hard to say. Some children are not good-looking when they are young, but they become very good-looking when they grow up. Some children are very good-looking when they are young.
, but he became ugly when he grew up. I just hope that my son will not become disabled in the future."
Her aunt immediately retorted, "How could that be? No, our children have good genes. You see that you and Xiaochen are both good-looking, so the children born from this will naturally be even more good-looking."
Xiang Jin smiled and said, "Auntie, you are my own child who looks good everywhere."
Her aunt said, "Isn't that right? No matter how ugly our children are, how can they be so ugly?"
While everyone was talking and laughing, the little guy suddenly opened his mouth and started crying.
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry," Xiang Jin hurriedly bent down and patted him gently to coax him.
After being coaxed by her for a while, the little guy quickly fell asleep again. When everyone saw it, they all whispered, "Do you think we disturbed him to sleep just now?"
Xiang Jin and her aunt looked at him and said with fondness in her eyes, "What a clever little guy, he knows how to protest at such a young age."
Xiang Jin's mother said, "Let's go aside and talk."
Everyone nodded and then left the bedroom. Xiang Jin went out to the outside room after coaxing the children.
That's the good thing about a natural birth. She can get out of bed and move around after a few hours. She also strictly follows the doctor's instructions, which is to move more once she can get out of bed. This is conducive to the recovery of the body, so she doesn't want to lie down in bed.
She can walk around on the ground. Yesterday, she went to the nursery to see those children who had jaundice and needed to be put in an incubator with blue light. There were also children who were born very weak and needed to be put in an incubator.
So after seeing those children, she felt that they were very lucky to have given birth to healthy babies, so she became even more convinced that she should strictly follow the doctor's instructions if she gets pregnant in the future.
Look, how beautiful and healthy their children are when they are born. Not only do they not have wrinkled and red skin, but the most important thing is that they don’t have to go into an incubator. Their skin is white and smooth, even tenderer than a peeled egg.
When they got outside, Xiang Jin's mother said, "Your dad has been a little busy with work recently and can't get away to visit you and your mother. He asked me to apologize to you and Xiaochen. He said he was celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival.
I’ll come over and visit you again.”
Xiang Jin said, "Hey, it's okay. We all know about it and can understand it. Tell him not to worry too much."
Following Xiang Jin, her aunt said, "So is your brother. He has been picking grapes recently, so he can't leave for a while. Your brother asked me to bring this to you." Then she handed a bank card to
In front of Xiang Jin, "The password is the child's birthday in reverse order, day, month and year."
As she said that, she took out another bank card from her bag and said, "This is a little thought of mine. The password is your birthday. I am usually quite busy and don't have much time to prepare other things for you.
So I will just do the same as Xiaobo, keep it simple and give you some money, and then use it to buy a few cans of milk powder and some clothes for the children."
Xiang Jin said to her aunt with a smile on her face, "Oh, I will thank my aunt and uncle on behalf of our baby."
Her aunt said, "Oh, why are you thanking me? You're out of town, aren't you?"
Everyone laughed, and Xiang Jin's mother and Yan Chen's aunt took out a beautiful packaging box from their bags. Her mother said, "Your father and I don't have anything to give."
The one you took was last time our company organized a trip to Ganzi Aba in Sichuan for that generation, and then we took a trip to Liangshan. I picked up a stone by the river.
The broken skin was red inside, so I thought it was a piece of chicken blood stone. Later, I took it back to the provincial capital to find a specialized jade processing workshop. The other party's master said that it was a rare piece of red jade, also commonly known as Nanhong, so I asked the master to
I made this bracelet and this accessory. The child can wear this pendant when he is young, and he can wear this bead string when he is older."
After everyone saw the bracelet and the pendant, they couldn't help but marvel. Yan Chen's aunt said, "Oh, sister-in-law, your gift is too expensive. Look how red it is.
It's pure, translucent and even, just like the ripe one at your house.
The cherries are the same. The key is that there are no impurities or cracks on them. The carving process is also lifelike. The Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva on the pendant seems to be alive, and the lotus on the beads also looks like a flower.
The flowers are blooming like red lotuses."
Xiang Jin and her aunt said, "Well, sister-in-law, this gift you gave is very good and valuable. Even I, who know nothing about jade, think that this gift you gave should be very valuable. Not to mention the value of the jade itself.
As for the carving of this jade, even I liked it so much when I saw it!"
Xiang Jin's mother laughed, "We don't care whether it's valuable or not. We don't understand that. We just want to do our best to be grandparents. We think carving a Guanyin Bodhisattva can keep him safe and healthy."
Healthy growth."
Yan Chen and his aunt nodded, "Sister-in-law, what you said makes sense. Children are the next generation and the future. As elders, no matter what we give him, it is a good blessing and expectation for him. Come on.
"Girl Jin, this seems a bit tacky," she said and opened her box.
Xiang Jin and the others saw lying inside was a bat with auspicious cloud patterns carved around it, a gold lock with the words "smart and clever" engraved in the middle, and a pair of strings woven with the red silk rope.
The small bracelet of the cartoon golden monkey with the child's zodiac sign. The golden lock and the small bracelet are very delicate and cute. It seems that it was specially customized by someone.
Xiang Jin picked up the two packing boxes, touched the contents inside, and then raised his lips, "Thank you, parents, thank you aunt. The gifts are very unique and precious. We will keep them well for the children.
We will hand it over to him when he grows up in the future."
Her mother said, "Thank you, thank you. We didn't spend anything on that gift, except for some processing fees. However, in my spare time, I prepared a few sets of clothes for the child, and I will give them to her later."
you."
"Yeah," Xiang Jin nodded vigorously, and everyone started chatting.
After a while, Yan Chen came in to hold the child and said that his father wanted to see the child. He nodded to Jin and did not stop him, but told him to be gentle and not wake up the child.
Yan Chen nodded and said "Okay!"
Yan Chen carried the child to the study room. His father was so excited when he saw it. He wanted to reach out and hug him, but he didn't dare. He was afraid that his technique would hurt the child and wake him up. He caressed the swaddled baby.
He looked at the child without blinking and kept saying, "Okay, okay, great, great!"
This is his grandson. He looks really like his son. Looking at this little baby, he suddenly thought of Yan Chen when he was young, and his eyes became moist.
Seeing his trembling hands, Yan Chen suddenly said forcefully, "Do you want to hug him?"
His dad suddenly raised his head, "But, is it okay?"
Seeing the mist in his eyes, Yan Chen frowned, "If you want to hug me, then hug him. If you don't want to hug me, forget it!"
His father immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes," and stretched out his hand towards him. This is his grandson, his biological grandson, how could he not want to hug him? He didn't hug Yan Chen much when he was young.
He couldn't help feeling regretful every time he thought of this. Now that he has a grandson, how could he feel regretful again? He was just afraid that Yan Chen wouldn't want to hug him.
"Be careful, don't fall to the ground," Yan Chen handed the child to him.
His dad immediately responded, "Alas."
He carefully held the little baby in his arms, and he suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. His eyes looking at the child became more and more eager and kind.
When she returned to her room in the evening, Yan Chen handed her two equity transfer documents, and Xiang Jin asked, "What do you mean?"
"My dad gave it to you and your children as a reward for your hard work!"
Xiang Jin smiled and said, "I can't take care of my own property, so how can I have time to take care of the property he gave me?"
Yan Chen said, "The company will continue to be managed by him. You two just hold shares in it and wait for the dividends every quarter."
Xiang Jin reached out and took it, then opened it and looked at it, "Oh, your dad is so generous. He actually gave us two 15% shares each."
Yan Chen's father was originally in the lumber business, but in the past few years he saw real estate businesses popping up like mushrooms all over the country, so he established a furniture company, so now his two companies combined
Annual net income of nearly RMB 10 million.
This gives the two of them 10% of the shares, so they dare not do anything, and they can receive nearly 3 million yuan in dividends a year.
Yan Chen said, "Take it, if you have money, don't give it up."
Xiang Jin nodded, "I think what you said makes sense," and then she waved to Yan Chen again, "Come here, I'll show you a few things."
Yan Chen walked over and sat down next to her. Xiang Jin took out a few things from the drawer, "One of these two cards was given by my brother, and the other was given by my aunt. At that time, I
I checked it on the computer and found that the card my brother gave me really has one million yuan in it, and my aunt's card has two hundred thousand yuan in it."
Yan Chen said, "Then you have to keep good records. When your brother gets married and has children, we will return this gift."
Xiang Jin said, "I've already remembered it. Well, this was given to me by my parents. I don't know if it's red jade, but it looks pretty good. There's no impurities in it."
Yan Chen picked it up and looked at it carefully for a while before nodding and saying, "It is indeed red jade, and it is also a persimmon red variety with extremely rare quality." The more he spoke, the more excited Yan Chen looked.
"Ah? What?" She didn't understand. She had never done much research on jade, so she was unfamiliar with those professional terms.
Yan Chen explained to her, "Do you know which are the three top-quality jade stones?"
Xiang Jin asked, "Jadeite, mutton-fat jade, is it possible that the last one is red jade?"
Yan Chen nodded to her, "Yes, these are the three types, but to be precise, they are the imperial green of jade, the mutton-fat white jade of mutton-fat jade, and the persimmon red of red jade.
There is a saying in the jade industry that if you miss the imperial green or the mutton-fat white, don’t miss the persimmon red again.”
"Really?" Xiang Jin was immediately surprised. He didn't expect this red jade to be so valuable. It was comparable to imperial green and mutton-fat white jade.
"Well," Yan Chen nodded, and then explained to him, "The redder the color of southern red agate, the higher its value. For example, its persimmon red, rose red, and cherry red are all of higher value.
The most outstanding among Nanhong is Binghong. As the name suggests, it is characterized by its moistness, strong colloid texture and fluorescence. Binghong is unique among Nanhong and has the feeling of standing out from the crowd.
It is not just jade, it can reach gem level. The two things your parents gave to our son are ice red among the southern reds. Look at how moist it is."
"Really? Isn't that worth a lot of money?" Xiang Jin became even more surprised.
Yan Chen nodded, "It is indeed valuable. Just the two things your parents gave you, the jade alone is worth more than tens of millions, not to mention the polished finished objects, the carving craftsmanship on them is not worth mentioning.
Simple, if this thing is auctioned on the market, it will not be less than 50 million at least."
"Is it so valuable?" Xiang Jin's eyes widened, "My mother thought it was a chicken blood stone when she picked it up."
"Did we pick this up?" Yan Chen was surprised.
Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, my mother and her company organized a trip to Ganzi Aba last time, and then they went to Liangshan next door, and she picked up a stone by the river.
She was attracted because the surface of the stone was chipped, and a little bit of red appeared inside. She thought it was a piece of chicken blood stone. She originally planned to go back and carve a seal for my dad, but she didn't expect to find the jade stone in the provincial capital.
When I went to the workshop to open the stone, the other person said it was jade.
Then she stopped making seals for my dad, and my brother and I took turns guarding the string of beads and a Guanyin Bodhisattva pendant made by the master, saying that he would bless our children safely and healthily."
Yan Chen nodded, "Mother-in-law is so lucky. Picking up a random stone can actually pick up red jade, and it's also the icy red color among red jade."
Xiang Jin nodded, "That's true. I guess the carver only knows a little bit about red jade. Otherwise, how could he not be moved by my mother holding such a valuable thing? There are two other experts who might have started grabbing it a long time ago."
The desire to plunder is not good for my mother and brother, and their personal safety may be threatened."
Yan Chen said, "Indeed."
Xiang Jin said, "Then we still have to keep this thing properly and not let outsiders see it. When our son grows up and understands the value of these things, we will give it to him.
"
Yan Chen said, "Well, that's true. Alas, does your brother have one?"
Xiang Jin said, "My mother said she left a bracelet like this there and will give it to my brother when the time comes."
Yan Chen said, "Then tell our mother to keep it safe and don't let outsiders see it, so as not to cause trouble."
Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, I'll tell her tomorrow."
Yan Chen then looked at another box, "What's in this?"
Xiang Jin said, "Here are the gold locks and small bracelets that Aunt Yan Shu gave to our son. They also cost her a lot of money. The gold is pure gold and they are solid. The small bracelets are
The few golden bumps are also pure gold."
Yan Chen asked, "Pure gold? How heavy is it? Can our children wear it?"
Xiang Jin said, "It's not meant to be worn in the first place. It's a gift from her. We'll store it there for the child when the time comes. We'll give it to him when he grows up. This can be considered a blessing for him."
Wealth.”
Yan Chen looked at the little one who was sleeping soundly in the crib next to him, and couldn't help but smile, "You brat, you have gained so much wealth in such a small amount of time in one day."
Xiang Jin smiled and said, "It proves that your son has a physique that attracts wealth."
