Chapter 1341 Pearl
The old man followed the young man's gaze.
The next second, the old man's expression was startled, then his brows relaxed, and a comfortable smile finally appeared on his face.
This kid...
……
The child loosened his grip and carefully placed the three pearls on the table.
She pursed her lips, looking reluctant.
The room is not dark.
The bright sunlight poured in, revealing every detail of the pattern on the table.
However, after the child removed his hand, all the light seemed to be absorbed into the three pearls and then emitted out again.
The hazy halo is so bright and shining, it's just...
"It's just like the legendary night-shining pearl."
The old man muttered, his eyes blank.
It took the old man a while to come back to his senses from his astonishment.
"beautiful."
The old man couldn't stop saying, "It's so beautiful."
He didn't know much about pearls, but anyone with eyes could see that these three pearls were very valuable.
More than just expensive?
It should be that there is no demand for it, right?
The old man had never seen pearls of such perfect quality anywhere else in his entire life.
Compared with the pearls in front of me, my daughter-in-law's pearl necklace is not only vulgar, but also looks like plastic.
……
The old man's expression of surprise and admiration suddenly paused.
Such a precious pearl was taken by my grandson without permission...
The other party didn’t call the police immediately?
Instead, I waited for so many days and waited for them to come again before asking them to return it.
The young man in front of me is more than just a good person.
And he even asked them to go to the box to discuss the matter.
Of course, this is partly due to the consideration of not showing off one's wealth, but this approach is also the best for his grandson.
If people knew that his grandson took such a valuable treasure...
The old man took a deep breath.
"Young man, these are three pearls, right?"
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
The old man's eyebrows relaxed, "Then you should put it away quickly."
"Such a valuable thing..."
Young people are just carefree.
The old man didn't say this out loud, after all, they are the ones who benefit from the young people's generosity.
Even so, he couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you call the police?"
Last time was the first time he brought his grandson to this teahouse, and it was natural that the other party had no way to find them.
However, the grandson took such a precious thing from this family, and the other party didn’t seem... to be in a hurry?
He admired this frankness and calmness, but also felt puzzled.
"How can you be sure we'll come back?"
What if they no longer come to this teahouse, wouldn’t this young man and this family suffer a great loss?
"I have confidence in our tea."
Xiao Xiao put away the pearls and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Looking at the old man's wide eyes, the smile in his eyes deepened a little. "It turns out that my tea is really good."
The old man was stunned for a long time, then he smiled with some emotion and said, "Yes, your tea is very good."
“The dim sum tastes good too.”
“My grandson loves it.”
……
"Thank you so much, young man."
If the old man knew what happened today, if it was someone else, how could he be so calm?
The young man's attitude was always gentle and polite. He never blamed his grandsons nor did he embarrass them in any way.
Just like the impression he had when he first saw the young man, calm, elegant, and graceful.
Now it seems that he is even more of a gentleman.
"Chen Chen."
The old man turned around and saw his grandson staring at the pocket of the young man opposite him, and he knew that the child was reluctant to part with those pearls.
After all, they are such beautiful pearls.
When adults see something, they all want to take it for themselves, let alone a child?
Fortunately, the pearls are so beautiful, otherwise the child would not know where he had lost them.
The old man touched the child's head and said, "You are lucky, you managed to get someone's treasure by touching a marble."
"Chenchen, come here, thank big brother, otherwise the police uncle will come to find you if you can't persuade him."
"Police uncle?"
The child looked confused as if he didn't understand why the police officer came to look for him.
"Because you took the eldest brother's pearl."
"Big brother didn't give it to you. You took it without Big brother knowing." "Do you know what this behavior is called?"
The old man spoke with deep sincerity.
The child's brows were knitted together.
"Do you know what the police do?"
the old man asked.
"Catch the bad guys."
The child answered quickly.
"Do you know who the bad guys are?"
The old man continued to ask.
"Hit, steal-"
The child was stunned, "Thief..."
"I……"
The child looked anxious and wanted to explain himself, but he found that his behavior...
"I did not do it on purpose."
The child stammered, "Pearls are very beautiful..."
"I touched it."
"There's no one around."
"And the pearl is at the bottom of the pond."
"I'll just take it."
The child's voice became lower and lower, and his words became a little garbled.
"Yes, Grandpa knows."
"Chenchen is a good boy."
The old man touched the top of the child's head and said, "Now that you know you were wrong this time, you won't make the same mistake again next time, right?"
"Yes."
The child looked up suddenly and responded loudly.
"Brother, I'm sorry."
The child looked at Xiao Xiao and said, "I didn't take your pearl on purpose."
"It's ok."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Didn't you return all the pearls to me?"
"hey-hey."
The little boy grinned sheepishly.
"Old man."
Xiao Xiao looked at the old man, "My business is over."
"As you wish."
"You can go downstairs and continue drinking tea."
Xiao Xiao went downstairs and went straight to the kitchen.
He knew that Xiao's father and others were still waiting for his news.
It was not until the curtain fell, blocking Xiao Xiao's figure, that the old man slowly sat down in his seat.
"Grandpa, I want some snacks."
The child glanced at the empty plate, then turned and looked at the old man eagerly.
The old man smiled lovingly, "Okay, I'll call you grandpa."
He was very pleased with the child's final performance.
His grandson is indeed a good boy.
As long as you explain to him clearly what he did wrong, he will realize his mistake and apologize sincerely.
The old man knew that the child really knew that he had done something wrong.
Instead of just treating him perfunctorily.
He touched his grandson's furry head and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes relaxed.
"Xiaoxiao, go back-"
"Xiaoxiao."
Grandpa Xiao's words were interrupted by Grandma Xiao who came in through the curtain.
Xiao's mother followed behind Xiao's grandmother.
"Xiaoxiao, did you get the pearl back?"
Xiao's mother asked with concern.
"Bring it back."
Xiao Xiao spread out his palms, revealing three round, snow-white pearls.
For a moment, the Xiao family members were dazzled by the pearls.
After a while, Father Xiao spoke to break the sudden silence, "Just bring it back."
Xiao's mother and others came back to their senses.
"Well, just take it back."
ps: Thank you Mingyu Guzhu for the reward (*︶*)!
