Chapter 1255: Can’t Stand By and See Someone Die
After a while.
Shen Qing and Zhang Wenwen also prepared gifts.
It is intended to be presented to Yan Jiangshan.
Zhang Wenwen is the eldest daughter-in-law, so Shen Qing knows how to be modest.
"Wenwen, you go first!"
"it is good."
Zhang Wenwen took out a porcelain bottle.
She knew that Yan Jiangshan liked these antiques.
He stepped forward and handed it to Yan Jiangshan, saying, "Dad, this is a piece of Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain that I asked someone to buy for me."
Yan Jiangshan took the blue and white porcelain with a smile on his face.
"Wenwen is so thoughtful. She knew I liked this and specially got it for me."
"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters, Dad."
"it is good."
Yan Jiangshan was still showing off his blue and white porcelain to everyone.
People around also cast envious glances at Yan Jiangshan.
“Look how sensible that daughter-in-law is. These kinds of Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain are hard to come by. She must have gone to great lengths to get them. She just knows that her father-in-law likes blue and white porcelain.”
"Yes, that's so filial. She bought something that's so hard to find. She must have prepared it well in advance."
"..."
Next up is Shen Qing.
She took out a long box and handed it to Yan Jiangshan, "Dad, please open it and take a look."
As Yan Jiangshan opened it with a smile, he muttered to himself, "What is this? It's so mysterious."
"Open it and you'll see."
Everyone's curious gaze fell on the box in Yan Jiangshan's hand.
Yan Jiangshan carefully opened the box, took out the painting inside, glanced at it, and was shocked.
"Qingqing, this painting is..."
"Dad, this painting was done by Master Dong Xian."
"What? Painted by Master Dong Xian?"
"Yes, Dad, you like it, right?"
Yan Jiangshan nodded quickly, "I like it, I like it very much."
"That's good."
The people around were also very surprised.
"Didn't Master Dong Xian say he wouldn't paint for others anymore? And he wouldn't sell his paintings either? Where did he get this daughter-in-law from?"
"That's right, Master Dong Xian's paintings are extremely difficult to obtain. How did she manage to get them?"
"Do you think it might be fake?"
"How could that be? Didn't you see Master Dong Xian's signature on it? Besides, today is Old Master Yan's birthday banquet. How could my daughter-in-law dare to fake it? Wouldn't that make people gossip about her behind her back?"
"Indeed, this daughter-in-law is really amazing. She actually managed to get Master Dong Xian to paint for her. That's truly remarkable."
"Do you think someone who isn't capable could get into the Yan family?"
"that's right."
"The daughters-in-law of the Yan family are all exceptionally filial."
"..."
At this moment, Yan Jiangshan spoke up, "Qingqing, thank you so much. I've been wanting Master Dong Xian's painting for a while now, but I haven't been able to get it."
"Dad, didn't I get this for you? Please keep it safe," Shen Qing said.
"it is good."
Next, the guests started eating and chatting.
……
Shen Qing and Zhang Wenwen, who had been busy all day, sat down to rest.
Zhang Wenwen said, "Cousin, I've also heard what Master Dong Xian said. He said that no matter who it is, Master Dong Xian will not paint for them anymore. How did you manage to get Master Dong Xian to paint for you?"
Shen Qing smiled and said, "At first, I approached Master Dong Xian expecting to be rejected. But after a few words of pleading, I never thought that Master Dong Xian would actually agree to paint for me."
"Cousin, I never imagined you were so amazing that you were able to persuade Master Dong Xian."
"I did my best to obtain Master Dong Xian's words."
Zhang Wenwen nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
"By the way, cousin, I've heard about what happened to Xiaofang's friend. I hope it didn't affect you."
Shen Qing curled the corners of her lips. "No, I've already taken legal action against her. People like her won't listen to reason. So the only option is to use the law."
"Cousin, you know, a lot has happened to us since Xiaofang and Cuihua came to the city."
“That’s right, but things have been better recently. We haven’t heard from Xiaofang. I heard that Cuihua has also returned to the village,” Shen Qing said.
"Yes, if they come looking for trouble again, we can't be soft-hearted. We have to refuse them when necessary."
"Wenwen, you're right. But after that incident with the company, Xiaofang seems to have calmed down quite a bit."
"Hmm. It would be best if things stayed this quiet."
At this moment, Shen Wenqiang and Wang Yaju walked over.
Shen Wenqiang and Wang Yaju are here today to celebrate Yan Jiangshan's 66th birthday.
"What's wrong? Dad, Mom?"
"Qingqing, Cuihua just called and said that Xiaofang is missing and can't be contacted. She asked us to help look for her. Should we refuse or agree?"
Shen Wenqiang said. He didn't want to cause trouble with this, so he could only discuss it with his daughter.
Shen Qing frowned slightly. "What? Xiao Fang is missing?"
“Cuihua refers to these two, the ones we’re talking about.”
"Sigh..." Shen Qing sighed, then turned to look at Zhang Wenwen, "You just said things had calmed down, how come trouble has arisen again?"
"Cousin, do you think we should help you look for her?"
Shen Qing looked up at Shen Wenqiang again, "Dad, what do you think?"
“This…” Shen Wenqiang softened again. “You know, Xiaofang is a girl, and this is her first time in a big city. What if she gets scammed by bad people and ends up getting killed? Why don’t we help her out?”
At this moment, Wang Yaju spoke up, "Your dad is right. We might not help with other things, but let's help with this one. What if something happens to this young girl? Even if it's someone else, we should still help."
Shen Qing smiled slightly; she knew her parents were too kind-hearted.
However, what my parents said wasn't wrong either; we shouldn't stand by and watch someone die, nor should we fail to help someone who is in danger.
So she still wants to help with this.
She's only helping to find people; she won't get involved in anything else.
"OK then."
Zhang Wenwen, who was standing next to her, was a little surprised. "Cousin, are you really going to help find Xiaofang?"
"Well, finding her is one thing, helping her is another."
Zhang Wenwen nodded, "Then I'll help you too. What do you need me to do?"
Shen Qing looked up at the guests who were still present today. "Some guests have already left. We'll go find them after they've all left."
"it is good!"
Shen Wenqiang continued, "Qingqing, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Dad, you don't need to help with anything. Just wait for news and then inform Cuihua. Oh, and tell her she doesn't need to come here anymore. If she comes, she doesn't know when she'll be able to go back."
"okay, I get it."
