Chapter 418 Freebie: A Courtyard in Beijing City
Thinking about this, Mr. Jin couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
However, what's done is done, and the matter has come to this.
There is nothing we can do about it.
Seeing the disappointed look on Grandpa Jin's face, Grandpa Bai couldn't help but offer words of comfort.
"Are you, the Jin family, afraid of not being able to find wives?"
"The girls who want to enter your Jin family's gates are probably lined up all the way to Qianmen Street," Old Master Bai said with a smile.
Su Niannian was indifferent to this, but the chef at Grandpa Jin's house cooked very well.
Several of the dishes were ones that Su Niannian liked to eat.
Seeing that the two elderly people were chatting happily, Su Niannian had no intention of interrupting and started eating on her own.
Su Niannian is beautiful and eats elegantly. Although she eats a lot, her table manners are graceful.
Grandpa Jin felt that young women should eat like this, and that it was better than what his granddaughter ate.
Thinking about his granddaughter, who refuses to eat this and that, gives him a headache.
After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, the four people at the table had almost finished eating, and Old Master Bai got up to take his leave.
Grandpa Jin told someone to fetch the items.
"Brother Bai's trip saved my youngest son's life."
"This is just a small token of my gratitude, nothing more," said Grandpa Jin to Grandpa Bai with a smile.
His subordinates handed over the items.
When Grandpa Bai saw this, he was genuinely quite surprised.
Old Master Bai was a man who had seen the world, and ordinary things really didn't catch his eye.
It's clear that Mr. Jin's thank-you gift was quite substantial.
"This is a wild ginseng that my grandson found for me. An expert examined it and said it was 300 years old and not commonly seen on the market. I thought it might be useful to you, so I gave it to you as a thank you gift."
"Also, this is the courtyard next to your house in the city. Although it is not as big as your house, it can be opened up to create two more courtyards, or it can be used for the younger generation to live in, which is also good."
The two gifts from Mr. Jin were a 300-year-old wild ginseng and a two-courtyard house in the city.
The scale of the project was considerable.
But it's understandable, after all, she saved her son's life.
That was his beloved youngest son.
"Brother Jin, you're too kind. It was just a small favor, and it was my granddaughter's idea."
"I'm just an old man, I haven't done anything wrong, how can I have the nerve to accept your things?" Old Master Bai waved his hand and said.
"The debt of saving my life is greater than the heavens. Also, as I promised before, if there is anything Brother Bai can do to help, my Jin family will definitely do our best."
Grandpa Jin smiled and spoke, then, seeing that Grandpa Bai didn't intend to accept it, his eyes darted around.
"Since you say this credit belongs to your granddaughter, then these things should be given to Niannian." Grandpa Jin said, looking at Su Niannian.
His smile was kind.
Upon hearing this, Su Niannian's eyes lit up.
However, as Grandpa had mentioned before, the reason for saving Old Master Jin's youngest son was to repay Chief Lu's life-saving grace.
Let's not bother with a thank-you gift.
Although, the courtyard next to Grandpa's house sounds very valuable.
In future generations, it will probably be something that money can't buy.
What a pity, what a pity!
When Grandpa Bai heard Grandpa Jin's words, he turned his head and smiled at Su Niannian.
"Since your Grandpa Jin has said so, girl, you can choose one," Grandpa Bai said to Su Niannian.
Upon hearing this, Su Niannian's small eyes lit up again.
“You… just give it all to her,” Old Master Jin said magnanimously upon hearing this.
Once something is taken out, it's meant to be given away; there's no reason to take it back.
Su Niannian looked at Grandpa Jin, then at her own grandfather.
It seems the question is asking if we can really choose one?
Grandpa Bai nodded.
“Then I’ll choose the house next to Grandpa’s,” Su Niannian said with a smile.
Su Niannian's choice was something that Old Master Bai hadn't expected.
As a physician, Su Niannian naturally understood the efficacy and effects of 300-year-old wild ginseng.
In certain specific circumstances, these 300-year-old wild ginsengs are something that money cannot buy.
But now, Su Niannian is willing to take that house.
Grandpa Bai doesn't lack houses, okay?
At this time, houses... aren't worth much money.
In any case, in Old Master Bai's opinion, that courtyard was not as valuable as a three-hundred-year-old wild ginseng.
However, since it was his choice that Su Niannian made, and Su Niannian had made her choice, Old Master Bai didn't intend to say anything more.
"Then let's go with the house," Old Master Bai said to Old Master Jin with a smile.
Su Niannian stood aside, overjoyed to have managed to snag a house in the city after just one trip.
Su Niannian didn't even look at those three-hundred-year-old wild ginseng.
There are plenty of those things in the space.
In other words, Su Niannian doesn't want to. If Su Niannian wanted to, she would just stuff this 300-year-old wild ginseng into her mouth and eat it like a big radish.
Su Niannian smiled and took the property deed and the key.
A beautiful smile curved her lips; this... will be a fortune in the future.
"This wild ginseng..." Old Master Jin wanted Su Niannian to take the wild ginseng with her.
“A three-hundred-year-old wild ginseng is still very beneficial to the body. This ginseng is of very good quality. Grandpa Jin should keep it just in case, or take a small amount to nourish and replenish his body.”
Su Niannian smiled and pushed the wild ginseng back.
Su Niannian actually didn't think much of the wild ginseng, but in Grandpa Jin's eyes, Su Niannian's actions were somewhat touching.
It's amazing that Mr. Jin is willing to bring out a wild ginseng that's three hundred years old.
It means he thinks this thing is presentable.
It is a precious treasure.
People of their age still really hope to live a long life.
A 300-year-old wild ginseng is a very good thing.
But Su Niannian, that little girl, actually refused, saying she wanted to keep it to nourish her body...
This is so thoughtful.
What should I do? I'm starting to envy the old man with the white coat.
Grandpa Jin recalled his good-for-nothing younger generation and realized they were no match for Su Niannian.
Grandpa Bai only realized what Su Niannian meant when he heard her words.
It turns out that his granddaughter knew that wild ginseng was precious, which is why she didn't choose it.
As expected, Su Niannian is a person who understands the bigger picture.
Why do I feel like my granddaughter has made me proud?
Seeing the changes in the expressions of the two elderly people, Su Niannian was somewhat confused about what they were thinking.
"Hehe, then this junior will accept it. Thank you, Grandpa Jin," Su Niannian said with a smile.
His movements were natural and uninhibited, without the slightest awkwardness.
"I just like your straightforwardness, unlike other girls who are coy and pretentious."
"Grandpa Jin's door is always open for you. Come visit often whenever you have time," Grandpa Jin said to Su Niannian with a smile.
"Brother Bai, your granddaughter is quite nice, she suits my taste!" Old Master Jin continued with a smile.
"My granddaughter is naturally excellent," Old Master Bai said without any politeness.
