Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Except for Yuan Qianyun, no other grandchildren would visit her when nothing happened.

Compared with others, Grandma Yuan only needs what she wants and doesn't have too high requirements.

Smiling, he looked at Yuan Qianyun and Lin Ran walking over.

She looked at Lin Ran carefully. His clothes were a bit ordinary compared to the others at her party, but he was very clean and looked very elegant.

It seems that Yuan Qianyun is ready to marry for love.

As a descendant of a wealthy family, she also knows very well that in a big family, men are fine, but women basically have no control over marriage and become a bargaining chip for family business marriages. It is rare for them to find their true love.

Yuan Jiahao actually doesn't care about his daughter?

Grandma Yuan was a little confused. Mr. Yuan, who was sitting next to her, had an extremely serious face.

"Granddaughter Yuan Qianyun."

"The craftsmanship of the flourishing age is Lin Ran."

"Congratulations to Grandma (Yuan) on her birthday."

Lin Ran actually doesn't like to kneel down, kneel to the sky and kneel to his parents, but on this occasion, he should give the other person face.

He told his origin, and the crowd immediately started talking.

"Shengshi Craftsmanship? Just that small shop?"

"It's not a small shop, it's said to be quite profitable."

"But the other sons-in-law are at least the bosses of the group company. Isn't the owner of a small shop too shabby?"

Most people have the same idea as Yuan Jiahao. They feel that although Shengshi Craftsmanship has made a lot of money, it has never been able to get on the stage.

Especially since many of them are highly respected figures within the system!

In their impression, people are divided into nine classes, and each class has its own world.

One official, two officials, three monks, four Taoists, five doctors, six craftsmen, seven craftsmen, eight prostitutes, nine Confucians and ten beggars.

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, businessmen are the lowest among the four people!

Therefore, they do not think highly of pure businessmen.

Enterprises that have formed a group like Song Qiang actually have some social status and are considered to be the lance class.

Of course Lin Ran didn't care about this. After saluting, he stood up, took out a brocade box and handed it to Grandma Yuan.

"I wish Grandma Yuan to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

He opened the brocade box and revealed the turtle shell inside.

The moment she saw the turtle shell, Grandma Yuan's smiling face froze, and Mr. Yuan also looked a little ugly.

The atmosphere in the venue was a little awkward, and the emcee didn't know what to say.

At this time, I heard Song Qiang's wanton laugh: "Lin Ran, are you mentally ill? For grandma's birthday, you gave me a stone turtle shell? You are really filial!"

"Qianyun, if you don't have money, tell your sister that she can lend it to you. This is grandma's birthday party, so you just give her a gift like this?" Yuan Qianxi also said.

Yuan Jiahao was at the table, and the other brothers and sisters were laughing at him.

"Brother, what's going on with your daughter? Give her a rag to mom?"

"Brother, I'm not talking about you. Qianyun is usually willful, but doing this at a birthday party? You don't take mom seriously."

"If you continue to let your daughter do what she wants, don't blame us as younger siblings for being rude."

Yuan Jiahao was also a little speechless. From his point of view, it was just an ordinary stone.

However, it is not particularly ordinary. At least in appearance, it looks a bit like a turtle shell.

Grandma Yuan was a little embarrassed, but she still smiled: "Thank you so much. It's not easy to find a stone that looks like a turtle shell, right?"

"Lin Ran, you are so stupid. For my mother's birthday, you gave her a turtle shell. What does that mean?" Yuan Jiale patted the table and stood up.

Others also took the opportunity to make use of the topic. Yuan Qianyun said that he was one of his own, so what could be done to him?

But Lin Ran is just an outsider.

Take it out on him and destroy Yuan Jiahao's majesty at the same time!

Apparently others felt this way too.

Someone in the private room took the opportunity to curse: "Lin Ran, don't think that we don't know what you want to do, but you actually called grandma a bastard. It's a shame you figured it out!"

"Get out of the hotel quickly and don't force us to do anything!"

"Yuan Qianyun, you too, where did you find such a stone? I'm not talking about the turtle!"

When Yuan Qianyun heard these words, his face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

"It's okay, Qianyun and Lin Ran. I've worked so hard for you, so don't pay attention to them." Grandma Yuan said with a chuckle.

Grandma Yuan pretended to laugh, but she was obviously unhappy.

What others sent was at least a thousand yuan or more.

To him, is it just a piece of broken stone?

Lin Ran had been enduring their ridicule just now, and now he finally had a chance to speak.

"Grandma, this is not a randomly picked stone, but..."

"The auspicious object of Hongshan culture-the jade turtle!"

"And you." Lin Ran was very angry at the person who just mocked him. "I can't tell the difference between a tortoise and a tortoise. I think you are the turtles! Does the tortoise's shell have patterns?"

"Moreover, the turtle has always been one of the four spirits in Chinese culture and is a symbol of longevity. The "Book of Rites" says: Lin, phoenix, turtle, and dragon are called the four spirits."

"This jade turtle is not a bluestone sculpture at all, but a cultural relic of the Hongshan Culture. You may not believe it, but this jade turtle is a cultural relic from 5000 years ago!"

Long before civilization existed, humans knew the importance of turtles!

At that time, the level of craftsmanship of the ancients was very low, so except for the shell, the carved jade turtle looked like a child's toy.

It looks crude,

"It is rumored that turtles have the ability to predict things. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, when we were still in a slave society, some people used turtles for divination, and it formed a unique cultural phenomenon."

"The marks left on the surface of this jade turtle are exactly the scratches of the turtle divination phenomenon that was prevalent during the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties."

"After the Han Dynasty, the custom of tortoise divination became common."

"But the turtle is still regarded as an auspicious object and is worshiped by people."

Lin Ran clasped his hands and explained to everyone. "Maybe some of you here don't know the Hongshan culture. As long as you know that it was a tribal culture that lived east of the Taihang Mountains and south of the Yanshan Mountains about 6000 years ago."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell silent.

If it is an ancient jade from 5000 years ago, it cannot be described as priceless.

Song Qiang was still mumbling: "You said it's Hongshan Ancient Jade, which is Hongshan Ancient Jade? Do you have proof?"

"Of course." Lin Ran pointed to the lines on the turtle shell and said, "Hongshan culture jade is usually buried in the black soil near Liaoning. Everyone knows that ancient jade usually has a clear color. The more common Hongshan jade is Yellow-brown soil."

He turned the turtle shell over and said, "It looks like dirt that cannot be removed, but it has actually formed patina. I don't need to say more about how many years it takes for patina to form on the surface of jade?"

Lin Ran didn't know how much the Yuan family knew about treasure appraisal. He had already talked about it very briefly.

Sure enough, many people were confused.

Mr. Yuan was a little unhappy just now, but now he is a little interested.

Look at the crowd and see who he is winking at.

At this time, an old man stood up in the crowd.

"General Yuan, let me palm your eyes for you." The old man said to Mr. Yuan with a smile.

Others immediately exclaimed.

This person is Director Zhong of the National Museum and one of Mr. Yuan’s most trusted subordinates!
