Chapter 24 Sheng Qingxi's Gift
Mrs. Zhang finally saw his sweet grandson before he could see it. Sheng Qingxi came by himself. His biological father and mother's eldest brother arrived first to help the Zhang brothers greet the guests.After Sheng Qingxi came in, she didn't bother to say hello to her parents. She directly called two tall helpers to help him move his things in.

"Xiao Xi, why are you here now?" Mrs. Zhang smiled happily when she saw her grandson. Although Mrs. Zhang complained, her tone seemed more coquettish than complaining.

"It's not because this thing is troublesome!" Sheng Qingxi greeted the old lady's birthday with a smile, and saluted all the old men.

"Is this a birthday present for your grandma? It's such a big one, what is it?" Old Wangtou asked curiously.

Mrs. Zhang quickly asked someone to unpack the package, complaining: "What are you doing with so much money, kid? You must have spent a lot of money on such a big gift, right?"

"It didn't cost much! And it's definitely worth the money! You'll know after you see it!" Sheng Qingxi realized that he had made a profit after getting the actual object. The screen he wanted to give to his grandmother was worth the full price he paid. What's more, there is another set of screens and three ornaments.

"What the hell is it? Hurry up and reveal the secret!" Mrs. Zhang became impatient and urged people to speed up the unpacking.Soon, the whole picture of the screen appeared in front of everyone.

"A screen? Or double-sided embroidery! Yes, your grandma will definitely like this gift!" Mrs. Zhang said with satisfaction, all the eyes of the old men and ladies were attracted by the exquisite screen.

"Yes, this gift is the one I like the most today!" Madam Zhang said with a smile.She had already left her seat and walked to the screen, touching the exquisite pattern on the screen with a lot of emotion.Mrs. Zhang was born in a famous family. When she was a child, her house had such a set of screens, but it was a pity that it was destroyed in the flames of war.Unexpectedly, the little grandson kept her regret in his heart, "Good boy!"

With nostalgia, Mrs. Zhang's eyes turned red.

"Grandma, today is a good day for you, you can't cry!" Sheng Qingxi didn't expect that her gift would make grandma cry, so she quickly pretended to be cute and made Mrs. Zhang happy.

"Hey, I've never seen this stitch before. It turned out to be a lost stitch. Xiaoxi, who is the master who embroidered this screen?" Old Jiangtou's wife is a master of Su embroidery, a national treasure, with Unlike others, her focus is on stitches, colors, stitches, and fineness of embroidery.The old lady was surprised to find that the exquisiteness of this pair of embroidery was unbelievably high, and her embroidery level was higher than her own.The old lady is excited!

"Uh——" Sheng Qingxi took a step back in fright, the old lady's eyes were so enthusiastic, "I bought it online, not some master embroidery."

"Impossible, it must be the master!" Old Madam Tian said, "It is said that masters are among the people. This is true. Xiaoxi, can you contact the seller for me, I want to meet the master of embroidery!"

"This...well, I'll contact you when I get home." Sheng Qingxi hurriedly said.I didn't expect the elegant and gentle Grandma Tian to be so fanatical.

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Tian was half satisfied, "By the way, do you still have this embroidery in your place? Transfer it to Grandma Tian, ​​and I will study it slowly when I go back!"

Facing the old man's burning expectant eyes, Sheng Qingxi dared to say no: "There is still a set of screens and three ornaments."

"I want it all. Lao Jiang, write a check quickly!"

"Wait a minute!" the old Wangtou yelled, "Old Tian, ​​everyone who sees it has a share. I like this embroidery very much too. Let me have one? I won't compete with you for the screen, I just want an ornament!"

"I want a decoration too!"

"I……"

Under the pressure of everyone, Mrs. Tian finally agreed to give up the other three ornaments.The old people who didn't get the embroidery complained that Sheng Qingxi didn't buy a few more pieces. Sheng Qingxi wiped off her sweat and ran to his uncle to get a pen and paper, and wrote down the address of Baitang's online shop to distribute to the old people.Old people don't know how to use the Internet, but they have children and grandchildren who can help them buy.

Sheng Qingxi put another set of screens and decorations in the back of his own car, intending to take them home and give the three decorations to his parents, elder brother and sister's family respectively.I can't complain yet, cry!

"Xiao Xi, how much is it?" Old Jiang took out his checkbook.

"No need, Grandpa Jiang, just treat it as a gift from me, don't give me any money." Sheng Qingxi waved her hands repeatedly.

"How can we do that? How can we, the elders, steal from your juniors?" Old Jiang raised his face, "Although your grandpa Jiang's family is not as rich as yours, you can still get a few million."

"Grandpa Jiang, you really don't have much money!" Sheng Qingxi looked at his grandfather begging for help.

"Old Jiang, what do you do with the money? This is Xiaoxi's filial piety to you, so please keep it at ease, and quickly put away the checkbook, don't make it embarrassing." Even if Mrs. Zhang tried to persuade others, his words were not pleasant. .Fortunately, this group of people knew that Mrs. Zhang had a foul mouth, so they wouldn't argue with him.

Old Jiang rolled his eyes and put away the checkbook: "Xiaoxi, at least you have to tell me the price of the screen!"

"120 million screens and 50 ornaments." Sheng Qingxi said.

All the old men and women took a deep breath: "So cheap?"

"Xiao Xi, you didn't miss a zero, did you?" Old Wang asked.

"No! That's the price. Two sets of screens plus three decorations total 390 million. Because I'm the first customer, the boss even saved me [-]!"

"Oh my god, is this boss a prodigal son or does he not understand the market price of wood and embroidery? The wood for the screen is red sandalwood, and the wood for the ornaments is agarwood. Embroidery! Really, really..." Old Wangtou didn't know how to describe the boss who bought things, and they were right, Baitang really didn't know the market prices of wood and embroidery.These things come so easily, she still feels that she has earned it!

Sheng Qingxi scratched her head and felt that she had taken advantage of Bai Tang. She decided to contact her boss online tomorrow to remind her.

Then the birthday banquet officially started, Sheng Qingxi gave up the position next to the old birthday star and the old man to the eldest uncle and the younger uncle, and retreated to the side of his parents.

"You found something good, kid. I'll send some money to your account tomorrow, so you can order two screens and ten decorations for me." Zhang Jingyu whispered in his son's ear.

"Mom, what do you need so many decorations for?"

"Of course it's a gift!" Zhang Jingyu rolled her eyes at her son, "The screen doesn't need to be modular, just a large screen with an embroidered picture!"
