Luo Qingqing didn't try to compete with them, she just focused on talking to the old lady.

"Grandma, I went to Mobei this time and found a rare item for you!"

Seeing that Luo Qingqing ignored her, Luo Feifei bit her lip lightly, and the smile on her face seemed a little unnatural.

When the old lady heard this, her face was full of smiles. "Every time you go out, you always think of me, an old woman. You are so thoughtful!"

Luo Qingqing kept it a secret, "I prepared this for your birthday, so I'll give it to you on your birthday. I'm just revealing a little bit in advance!"

"You naughty monkey! You're still keeping me in suspense!"

The old lady smiled and patted Luo Qingqing, her face full of doting. She loved all her grandchildren, but Luo Qingqing was a little special. To others, it seemed like the old lady doted on her! This always made some petty people jealous.

For example, Luo Feifei and others.

However, Luo Qingqing had a good temper and would not suffer any loss. They were just showing off their verbal skills. Even so, Luo Qingqing sometimes did not indulge them and would often retort to leave them speechless.

Among the four branches of the Luo family, only the eldest branch is the most promising. From Old Man Luo, to Luo Shaonan, and now Luo Chuan, they are all from the eldest branch. Therefore, other branches of the family rely on the eldest branch of the Luo family. Of course, the eldest branch controls their lifeline.

Without the hard work of the eldest wife, the Luo family would not have become the richest family in Jiangnan and the first imperial merchant in Daqi.

Among the four brothers, Luo Shaonan has the best character. He has only one wife, Cheng, and he has three sons and two daughters, all of whom are Cheng's children. He and his wife love each other, his children are successful, and there are no troubles in the backyard. His life can be said to be very perfect.

Therefore, the old lady favors the eldest wife. In addition, Luo Qingqing has a lively personality, acts with discretion, and is calm in the face of things, so it is natural for her to favor her.

"But besides the birthday gift, I also brought a lot of good things for grandma."

As he spoke, Luo gently waved and called over the maid Xiangcao outside. Xiangcao, holding a large bundle in her hands, hurried in to pay her respects to the old lady.

Luo Qingqing took the big bag, untied it, and poured it all onto the couch.

"Ouch! My little ancestor, aren't you afraid of breaking it?"

The old lady and Mother He felt distressed, because the things they poured out were all treasures.

"Don't worry, Grandma. I've wrapped up all the valuables! Look, this is a soft, handmade blanket with hand-woven patterns. And there's this golden wine jug. Isn't it beautiful?"

"Oh right! Look at this emerald flowing cloud ring, grandma, when you put it on, how elegant it is!"

"This, this... I asked Mobei's most famous master to bless this string of Buddhist beads! It will bring peace and longevity!"

……

There were so many things that it was overwhelming. Everyone in the room was dazzled. Listening to Luo Qingqing introducing each thing one by one, the old lady kept nodding and smiling, trying this, touching that, and the smile on her face became more and more heartwarming.

"You! Why don't you keep such good things for yourself? You worked so hard to find them, and now you've brought them all here. Aren't you afraid that grandma will take a fancy to them and plunder them all for you?"

Luo Qingqing did not hesitate.

"The fact that my grandmother could collect these things shows that I have good taste! Besides, I don't need so many of them. I brought them back to you as a gift to you!"

The old lady liked Luo Qingqing's straightforward and heartless look the most, and glanced at the Luo Feifei sisters standing next to her.

"Your cousins ​​are all here! Why don't you show some appreciation?"

Luo Feifei and her two sisters were already dazzled by these things, and were feeling envious and jealous. When they heard what the old lady said, Luo Feifei's hands that were tightly holding the handkerchief loosened, and a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.

Luo Yuanyuan, on the other hand, was more polite. "Grandma, these are just gifts for you. We just want to feast our eyes on them, but we dare not accept them."

However, Luo Qingqing didn't listen to her.

He took out a cloth bag from a pile of things and opened it, revealing several pieces of jewelry.

The red coral bracelet and red agate necklace were brightly colored and the beads were round and smooth. She picked up the necklace and stuffed it into Luo Zhenzhen's hand. "I think this suits you best, Seventh Cousin. This is for you!"

The other two red coral bracelets were given to Luo Feifei and Luo Yuanyuan respectively.

The three people were very happy to receive the gifts, and they were all jewelry that women liked. Red coral and red agate were very valuable things. Luo Qingqing gave them away without hesitation, also because of the old lady's words. Otherwise, she would never give such expensive gifts to people who didn't like her!

The old lady also saw it! But she didn't expose her. Luo Qingqing is not stingy, but she also holds grudges!

There must be extra things for them, maybe Luochuan has already been sent to the hospital!

Luo Feifei held the gift in her hand and thought so in her heart.

After getting the good stuff, the three of them quickly took their leave!

The old lady didn't keep them. They came here to ask for favors from her! She knew everything clearly!

After they left, Luo Qingqing carefully took out a cloth bag from the pile of things. The bag was embroidered with perfect patterns of gold and silver threads and looked quite thick.

"Grandma, this is the rare thing I found for you!"

As she spoke, Luo gently handed the bag to the old lady, who smiled and pointed at her with her finger.

"You naughty monkey, it's a secret! How come you can't help but show off your treasure now?"

She knew that this child couldn't keep secrets, so how could he really wait until her birthday to give her something?

The old lady took it and opened the bag. She saw only a little bit and was shocked. She moved much more cautiously.

"This child, you really don't know how to take things lightly. You just knocked over such a precious thing. It's so painful to get it bumped and bruised!"

Luo smiled lightly without saying anything. Her bag was thick, so it wouldn't get bumped.

Gently open the bag to reveal a crystal clear and flawless white jade Guanyin Buddha statue inside. The statue is lifelike with smooth and delicate lines. What is even more rare is that this Guanyin Buddha statue is pure white and translucent without a trace of impurities. The jade quality and carving workmanship all demonstrate its preciousness.

"I specifically requested this from the Grand Master. It's said to have come from the Western Regions. The moment I saw it, I knew my grandmother would love it!"

Luo Qingqing's voice also became softer. The old lady worshipped Buddha, so this Jade Guanyin was the most suitable birthday gift for her!

However, she found that although the old lady was happy, there was a hint of sadness in her expression that she could not understand.

There seemed to be tears of excitement in his eyes? Was this happiness?

Mother He, who was standing nearby, knew what was going on. When she saw the Jade Guanyin, she thought of someone, not to mention the old lady!

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Don't you like it?"

The old lady pressed the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, and the smile on her face widened a little, but it was a little forced.

"I like it! How could I not like it? I'm just so happy..."

Ke Luoqingqing felt that it was not the case. She turned her gaze to Mother He, her face full of question marks.

Seeing the old lady silent, Mother He sighed, "The old lady just remembered some old things..."

Luo Qingqing felt that there was a story here. The old woman's expression was probably because the Jade Guanyin reminded her of her sad memories, and she felt a surge of guilt in her heart.

"I'm sorry, Grandma..."
