Chapter 128: Chapter 128: The Pure Gold Peach of Longevity
In fact, Lin Yi and his father had selected the birthday present for the old lady the night before, but they did not bring it with them. Instead, they had instructed the people from the gold shop to ensure its delivery today.
The reason for this was to avoid Han Xuewei’s parents from commenting on how expensive the gift was.
So, Lin Yi’s father had the manager of Lin Yi’s gold shop make a phone call to inquire about the current status of the delivery.
“Lin Yi, has the item not arrived yet? Isn’t it a bit too late?”
Lin Yi replied anxiously, “Dad, I’m even more anxious than you are. I asked about it ten minutes ago, and they said because the item is so valuable, it needs to be escorted by security personnel. They asked us to wait patiently.”
Lin Yi’s father shrugged helplessly and said, “They said last night that it would be delivered by twelve o’clock, but it’s already ten minutes past, and we’re about to start dinner. If it’s any later, it will lose its meaning! Could it be that it will only arrive once everyone has finished eating and the party is over?”
Lin Yi’s father’s concerns were not unfounded. After all, it was the Lin Family’s first time attending a joyous event of the Han family. If they couldn’t even produce a birthday present, they would be laughed at by relatives.
Even though before this, Han Xuewei’s mother had brought a large supply of nourishing gifts for the old lady, at most this could only be considered her personal greeting gift and could not be counted as a birthday present for the elder!
While the father and son were worrying, the elevator door on one side of the banquet hall slowly opened, and out came a person dressed in a sharp, sophisticated suit.
Behind him followed several security personnel dressed in uniform black, surrounding a cabinet that appeared to be about a meter tall.
Their arrival attracted many people’s attention and started discussions among the crowd, “Oh, that person is the manager from our county’s leading jewelry shop, Da Fu Gold!”
“How familiar, so it was him.”
“And he’s got a safe with him, quite a statement. Could it be a birthday gift for the old lady?”
“Anyway, this setup is far from simple, so many bodyguards following him, it’s indeed a bit mysterious.”
“Could it be filled with gold? Isn’t that a bit too extravagant?”
Most of those present today were wealthy businessmen from various sectors, and for people like them, gold was the best asset to preserve value.
Da Fu Gold Shop is considered the largest gold shop in the county.
However, it’s said that the owner of Da Fu Gold Shop is from out of town and happens to be away on a business trip these days, so the manager brought this generous gift instead.
Lin Yi’s father, who had been anxiously checking his watch and watching the elevator, was the first to notice the commotion over there.
He quickly grabbed Lin Yi and ran towards the elevator entrance, shouting as he went, “Manager Guo, over here!”
Manager Guo smiled immediately upon seeing the father and son and hurriedly came over to greet them, “I’m so sorry for the inconvenience, there was a bit of a traffic jam, so we’re slightly behind schedule!”
Lin Yi’s father hastily said, “It’s alright, dinner hasn’t started yet. Otherwise, it would have been a real problem. Even complaining wouldn’t have made me feel better!”
Manager Guo quickly apologized with a smile and instructed the security personnel to push the safe forward, for the father and son to inspect, “Gentlemen, this is the Gold Peach of Longevity you reserved at our store. We have delivered it for you!”
“Our tardiness was our fault, we hope you can forgive us, and the safe will be a complimentary gift!”
Because compared to this pure Gold Peach of Longevity, the safe was relatively inexpensive!
After all, the price of the Gold Peach of Longevity was already several million!
Lin Yi took a quick look and confirmed the receipt of the delivery.
Manager Guo also hurriedly unlocked the safe and after giving a look to the security personnel, he left.
All the guests were still discussing the events when Lin Yi and his father slowly pushed the safe towards the main table.
They arrived beside the elderly lady and said, “Grandma, today is your birthday, we wish you longevity beyond your years. We hope you will accept this modest gift as a token of the younger generation’s affection.”
The Han family’s elderly matriarch, seeing how articulate Lin Yi was, quickly responded with a smile, “Good, good, good. As long as it’s from my grandson-in-law, I like it! I like everything!”
She truly thought from the bottom of her heart that Lin Yi was a good kid!
And so, Lin Yi carefully opened the safe and under the gaze of the audience, gradually revealed the Gold Peach of Longevity!
It was made of pure gold!
It was no light object; he and his father had weighed it—twenty-five pounds!
As everyone got a clear look at the object, the room burst into astonished murmurs; the word ‘surprise’ could no longer describe their reaction!
Some people were very familiar with this Peach of Longevity because it was the treasure of the Great Fortune Gold Store!
It had been on display for more than a decade, with nobody buying it!
The price had also skyrocketed to over five million!
But nobody had expected that just yesterday, the Lin family father and son had bought it!
And now, it became the old lady’s birthday gift!
At this moment, everyone present was certain of the Lin family’s financial strength that was not comparable to that of ordinary people!
Moreover, by tomorrow, there would be a new topic of conversation in Xiao Chuan County!
Looking at Han Xuemei now, her eyes were filled with very complex emotions!
Envy, jealousy, and even hatred!
A five-million-worth birthday gift??!!
Not just her, but everyone present had never seen anything like it before! Just how strong were the Lin family’s resources?
When the Han family’s elderly lady saw the Peach of Longevity, she too was taken aback at first, but the next second, a pleased expression spread across her face, and it wasn’t hard for everyone to see that she was genuinely happy.
“Oh my! Lin Yi, my in-laws, this… this birthday gift is too precious! We’ve already received so many gifts, you’ve really gone too far today!” Han Xuewei’s mother hastily said.
Seeing the elderly’s satisfied expression, Lin Yi smiled and replied, “It’s what our younger generation ought to do, making the elder happy is what matters, don’t worry about the expense.”
The Han family’s elderly lady also said, “Good, this birthday gift is wonderful! Thank you for your thoughtfulness.”
At this moment, both Lin Yi’s mother and Han Xuewei’s mother were also quite surprised; they hadn’t anticipated that Lin Yi and his father had prepared such a birthday gift.
The elderly lady promptly had her eldest son, Han Chunping, take the generous gift, and they moved the safe away.
All the birthday gifts received by the elderly lady were kept in a private room for safety, and she also went there to put a password on the safe.
About fifteen minutes later, she returned, assisted by her eldest son.
Seeing that it was getting late, the elderly’s eldest son, Han Chunping, stood up and suggested, “Mom, it’s already half-past twelve, let’s let the guests start eating. We, the younger generation of the Han family, will write a birthday blessing for you.”
