close mad son-in-law

Chapter 233 Phoenix Crown

When it was almost time to get off work, Xu Qiang returned to the group.

Han Xuefei called Xu Qiang over, and grandma invited her tonight.

"Today is not a day for family gatherings, and the old lady told us to come over again, but it was Han Yufan who filed a complaint?" Xu Qiang guessed.

"I guess so. If Wang's irrigation technique can't be used, Shengyuan's greatest advantage will be lost. Han Yufan must be unwilling and begged grandma to come forward!" Han Xuefei nodded.

She and Xu Qiang had the same guess, and both of them had some headaches.

Mrs. Han is currently the most senior member of the Han family.

She spoke, no matter whether it was reasonable or not, it was impossible to refuse directly.

However, Xu Qiang was not reconciled to asking Xu Qiang to agree.

But if Xu Qiang refuses to agree, it seems that he is not filial, he seems to be disrespectful, and a lot of hats will be put on him, which makes him very embarrassed.

Until the end of get off work time, the two of them didn't come up with any good countermeasures.

However, Xu Qiang has already decided that he will never authorize again.

When I saw the old lady of the Han family, I found that not only the old lady was alone, but also two guests were present, and they were all acquaintances of Xu Qiang.

Ma Bowen, Ma Lijin, the two father and son of the Ma family.

Seeing them appear on the scene, Xu Qiang breathed a sigh of relief.

The absence of Han Yufan meant that what the old lady wanted to talk about was not about patents, but the presence of the Ma family father and son would not bring any good things.

"Xu Qiang, I heard that the Ma family's Qianlong sword is in your hands?" After Xu Qiang and the two sat down, the old lady directly asked about the Qianlong sword.

As soon as the old lady asked about Qianlong's sword, Xu Qiang knew it well.

"Yes, I competed with Ma Lijin for appraisal, and I won with the sword of Qianlong as a bet. The sword of Qianlong belongs to me!" Xu Qiang said truthfully.

Because there were a lot of spectators at the time, and some people sent messages while watching, it was impossible to hide it.

Just like in the group for the past two days, Xu Qiang has heard some people talking about it, even pointing at him behind his back, talking about his getting the Qianlong sword.

The old lady must know that lying is useless.

"Do you know the relationship between our Han family and the Ma family?" the old lady asked.

"I heard that there is friendship!" Xu Qiang replied casually.

The Han family and the Ma family do have some friendship, but it is only better than a casual friendship. It is definitely not a deep friendship, not even a friend of wine and meat.

"It's not an ordinary friendship, it's a family friend, and the Qianlong sword is a family heirloom of the Ma family and one of the spiritual symbols of the Ma family. If you hold it inappropriately, return it to them!" the old lady said.

Give them back?

Xu Qiang frowned slightly, why give it back to them?
The friction between Xu Qiang and Ma's family has reached a very serious level, and even Ma Lijin is looking for someone to assassinate Xu Qiang, so that he can disappear from the world.

Under such circumstances, asking Xu Qiang to return the Qianlong sword to the Ma family, of course Xu Qiang disagreed, but now that the old lady is speaking, it is difficult to refuse.

"Grandma, the sword of Qianlong was won by Xu Qiang with his ability, and it was not stolen or snatched. How could it be returned for nothing?" Han Xuefei continued to speak.

"Of course I know, I won't let you return it for nothing, Bowen, let them see it!" the old lady said to Ma Bowen.

Ma Bowen immediately walked to the side, opened a two-foot-high wooden box, and took out a jeweled item from it.

It's Phoenix Crown!
Xu Qiang recognized it at a glance. It was the hat worn by the concubines in the ancient harem. It was made of precious treasures such as moisturizing pearls, so it looked like jewels.

Seeing Fengguan, Han Xuefei's eyes lit up immediately.

Not only Han Xuefei's eyes lit up, but the old lady's eyes also lit up.

After all, the phoenix crown is so beautiful. It is inlaid with precious gemstones of various colors and pleasing pearls, which are organically combined.

"Look, Bowen can't bear to let you suffer, so I exchanged the phoenix crown of the queen of the Qing Dynasty for the sword of Qianlong. You can see how exquisite and gorgeous the phoenix crown is. If it stays in our Han family, it will be enough as a family heirloom!" The old lady's eyes I can't open it a little bit.

No matter how gorgeous or symbolic the phoenix crown is, it can be called the top-notch, and any woman will want it when she sees it.

Xu Qiang frowned, is it a family heirloom of the Han family?
He took away the Qianlong sword that belonged to him, but the phoenix crown in exchange belonged to the Han family. He was the only one who lost, and both the Han family and the Ma family gained.

Xu Qiang looked at Feng Guan and suddenly smiled.

"Just do as grandma said, I am willing to give the Qianlong sword to the Ma family, and I will go to get the Qianlong sword right away, but the phoenix crown is so beautiful, I will appreciate it first, and then go get it!" Xu Qiang laughed.

Seeing that Han Xuefei was about to speak, he signaled Han Xuefei not to speak.

He knew that Han Xuefei wanted to help him, but if he helped him resist grandma's intentions, the conflict between Han Xuefei and grandma would definitely increase.

"Such a precious phoenix crown, the Ma family must have had a hard time getting it?" Xu Qiang said to Ma Bowen and his son while admiring it carefully.

Seeing Xu Qiang appreciating it up close, the expressions of Ma Bowen and his son changed slightly.

"Of course it's not easy to come by. It was discovered by the ancestors of our Ma family. In order to get the phoenix crown, our Ma family almost fell into a desperate situation..." Ma Bowen nodded and said.

Ah!
Suddenly Xu Qiang stretched out his hand and broke off a piece of jade that was as big as a thumb.

When it was broken off, there was a crisp sound that shocked everyone.

"I know that you must have resentment for asking you to hand over the Qianlong sword. If you don't want to hand it over, you can just say that I will never make things difficult for you, but now you have destroyed the phoenix crown. Are you taking revenge on me?" The old lady suddenly became angry. .

Breaking off the jadeite from the phoenix crown is not a matter of simply installing it back, because the jadeite inlaid on the phoenix crown is not simply glued on.

Instead, it is fixed with a platinum pattern in a special way.

While tearing off the emerald, it also destroyed the platinum pattern. If you want to restore it to its original state, I'm afraid you have to find a master restorer.

Han Xuefei also frowned, Xu Qiang's actions were a bit irrational.

Even if he could avoid handing over Qianlong's sword, he would completely anger the old lady and even pay the Ma family a large loss.

"Grandma, don't be angry..."

"You have destroyed the phoenix crown, how can I not be angry?"

"I just saw that this piece of green glass is very beautiful. I wanted to see what kind of craftsmanship it was made of, but I couldn't understand it at all. Ma Lijin, can you tell me where it was made to order? I will also order some. It's so beautiful, so emerald-like!" Xu Qiang said with a smile.

"Xu Qiang, I know you have misunderstood our Ma family and you don't like it, but you can't turn black and white. This is a piece of green emerald, not glass. Forget it. Since you don't want to change it at all, we don't have to force others to do it. Fengguan us Take it back!" As soon as Ma Bowen stretched out his hand, he went to snatch the jade that Xu Qiang had picked off.

Of course, they just called it jadeite, and Xu Qiang said it was glass.

It's just that they are sticking to their own opinions now, not sure about jade or glass.

"Glass?" The old lady was also taken aback.

"Xu Qiang, don't talk nonsense!" The old lady's face darkened.

Although she didn't hold it in her hand to see it for herself, he didn't think it was glass because Ma Bowen and his son brought it in person.

As her junior, Ma Bowen was of the same generation as Han Shun, so it was impossible for her to deceive her. On the contrary, she always felt that Xu Qiang was unreliable and didn't like Xu Qiang.

Some time ago, Xu Qiang was forced to transfer Xunteng Group's project to Han Yufan twice. Xu Qiang must have resented her and deliberately made trouble.

Thinking of this, the old lady's face became even more gloomy.

"Xu Qiang, hand the jade to me, and I won't hold you accountable for destroying the phoenix crown!" Seeing Xu Qiang retract his hand to avoid Ma Bowen's snatch, Ma Lijin spoke.

He and Ma Bowen's caliber is the same, and they will never force others to make things difficult.

"Bowen, don't be angry, it's because Xu Qiang, a junior, is ignorant. Don't worry, I will make the decision for him about Qianlong's sword, and I will let him send it to you later. As for the destruction of the phoenix crown, please find me. A reliable craftsman, let him pay for all repair costs!" The old lady gave a heavy blow to her crutches.

If Xu Qiang dare not follow her, she will teach Xu Qiang a lesson.

She wanted Xu Qiang to know that since she was the visiting son-in-law of the Han family, she had to behave like a visiting son-in-law, at least the elders' wishes could not be violated.

Hearing Mrs. Han's words, Ma Bowen was only half relieved.

"Thank you, old lady, we will be responsible for the repair of the Phoenix Crown, so there is no need for the cost. We will send it after it is repaired!" Ma Bowen reached out to Xu Qiang again, asking for the glass jadeite in Xu Qiang's hand.

Xu Qiang laughed because he saw that Ma Bowen was sweating.

"Grandma, you said that jadeite is jadeite. Such a large piece of glass-grown jadeite is very rare. You should also appreciate it!" Xu Qiang stretched out his hand and stuffed the jadeite into the old lady's hand.

The old lady was getting older, so of course she wasn't as quick as Xu Qiang.

When the old lady reacted, the jade was already in her hand.

The old lady wanted to hand the jadeite to Ma Bowen, but suddenly stopped, held the jadeite in front of her eyes, and looked at it carefully.

As a woman of the Han family, she also has a lot of precious jewelry, some of which are made of jadeite, so she is very familiar with jadeite.

The glass jade that Xu Qiang picked out looks very beautiful, and it is a very good glass jade, but it feels wrong when you hold it in your hand, and it is different from jade.

The old lady took a closer look, and her face was more gloomy than when she faced Xu Qiang just now, but this time she was facing Ma Bowen and Ma Lijin.

"Bowen, do you think I'm blind?" The old lady slapped the jade on the table, and she was sure it wasn't jade, but glass.

Although the imitation is very similar, it looks basically the same as jadeite, but once Xu Qiang put it in her hand, she felt that it was different.

Xu Qiang is right, it's not jade, it's glass!

It's just that it's not ordinary glass, it's glass made by a special process, coupled with the camouflage and dyeing of masters in the later stage, forming a piece of glass that is extremely similar in appearance to jadeite.

If you just don't touch it, most people will be hidden from it.

Just like the old lady was hidden from it just now.

But if you let it get started, anyone who is familiar with the characteristics of jade can probably tell that it is a piece of jade-like glass.

It's like the old lady felt that it was glass products as soon as she got started.

"It can't be glass..." Ma Bowen reached out and took the glass back from the table.

"How could it be glass? I know. It must be the person who guards the secret vault in the family who insists on stealing. Knowing the high price of jade, he replaced it with glass. Old lady, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation..." As soon as he took the glass in his hand, Ma Bowen's face changed, and then he swore a promise.
