C396 Yang Xuan's Gift



C396 Yang Xuan's Gift

According to the rules, all gifts given by guests must be read aloud by the master of ceremonies as well as the name of the gift.    

    

The old lady was a very traditional person, so she attached great importance to this segment.    

    

But now that she had brought Yang Xuan's gifts, it was obvious that she didn't want to embarrass this country bumpkin.    

    

However, this country bumpkin actually could not see through the good intentions of the old lady.    

    

The old lady also seemed a little embarrassed. The emcee beside her was a smart person, so she quickly tried to smooth things over, "In that case, the old lady didn't eat much either. I'm afraid she's hungry now."    

    

"Why don't we take this gift back first and leave it here. We'll open it after the old lady is full."    

    

Yang Xuan nodded and said, "Alright, that's good too. It's more important to eat first."    

    

Old lady Zhang warmly invited Yang Xuan to sit with her at a table, which attracted the envy of all the guests.    

    

This was a very honorable thing. It meant that the old lady favored this hillbilly. From now on, it was likely that the rooster would become a phoenix.    

    

For a large family like the Zhang family, it was only a matter of a few words to change the fate of whoever they wanted to change.    

    

Suen Hann was also invited to sit at a table because he "knew" two one-star generals.    

    

At the table, Suen Hann naturally would not let go of this opportunity to get close to the old lady. He served tea, poured wine, flattered all kinds of flowery flattery, and almost knelt down and kowtowed.    

    

In reality, Suen Hann just did not have this chance.    

    

If the old lady asked him to kneel and kowtow, he would definitely be so happy that he wouldn't be able to close his mouth.    

    

The old lady was a cultured person. She always had a smile on her face, but from his eyes, one could see disgust and impatience.    

    

"Suen Hann, don't talk about it for now. Let grandma eat a few mouthfuls. The food will be cold in a while."    

    

Zhang Peng could naturally tell what the old lady was thinking, so he quickly told Suen Hann to shut up.    

    

The old lady waited for Suen Hann to finish speaking and only nodded lightly as a response.    

    

Then she looked at Yang Xuan and smiled gently, "Young man, don't be so formal. You must eat and drink well."    

    

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you, grandma. I've never known what restraint is since I was young, haha!"    

    

As he spoke, he ate heartily. His manner of eating was very uncultured.    

    

Suen Hann wanted to show off his solicitous manner and angrily said, "Yang Xuan, have you never eaten in eight lifetimes? Look at your manner of eating. Can't you be a little more refined in front of the elders?"    

    

Before Yang Xuan could speak, the old lady finally could not hold it in anymore and said in a deep voice, "This food was originally made for people to eat."    

    

"Eating big mouthfuls when you are hungry. This is a matter of course. Why must you pretend to be refined? Isn't this hypocritical?"    

    

This sentence made Suen Hann's face turn red.    

    

He was also very puzzled. His suit was well-ironed, and the old lady didn't need to look at him directly.    

    

That country bumpkin was dressed like a street vendor, and he was even sloppy. On the contrary, he received the old lady's warmth.    

    

Actually, Suen Hann didn't understand the slightest bit about the old lady.    

    

When the old lady was young, her family was poor and she had suffered a lot. She had endured until today step by step, and could be considered to have experienced all the hardships and humanity in the world.    

    

Especially after she had made a name for herself, every day she heard some disgusting flattery. Everyone wore masks in front of her, trying to please her.    

    

To be frank, those people had gone for her position, not to sincerely respect her.    

    

And the young man she met today, although dressed plainly, his words and actions were graceful and generous. His gaze when looking at people was also very frank and sincere, not hiding anything at all.    

    

This made the old lady's eyes light up. She especially liked this young man.    

    

Yang Xuan also felt that the old lady Zhang was especially close. Talking to her gave him a sense of familiarity as if he was chatting with his grandmother.    

    

The two of them became more and more familiar with each other. On the entire table, the old lady's attention was completely on Yang Xuan.    

    

Suen Hann couldn't even interrupt her, especially when he heard that the old lady was interested and wanted to help Yang Xuan. He was so angry that he couldn't help but get angry.    

    

He wore a well-ironed suit. Although the company he opened was very small, he was still a "upper-class person."    

    

Yang Xuan was a taxi driver. Why!?    

    

However, in this situation, he did not dare to act rashly. He rolled his eyes and accidentally saw the black plastic bag next to him. He instantly had an idea.    

    

"Yang Xuan, what kind of gift did you prepare for grandma today? Everyone is very curious!"    

    

Suen Hann said loudly, "Why don't you open it and let everyone see it? You put the gift in a black garbage bag. Such a unique packaging, I think the things inside must be very special!"    

    

Suen Hann was going to throw caution to the wind, deliberately wanting to embarrass Yang Xuan.    

    

The old lady said lightly, "It's the same whenever you see a gift. Let's eat first."    

    

"Don't, grandma."    

    

Suen Hann said with a smile, "Our hometown has a rule that the birthday gift must be opened on the spot. It would be auspicious if it was only opened later. If it was opened later, it would seem a little unlucky."    

    

"Oh? Is there such a rule?"    

    

The old lady quickly asked.    

    

She was a very traditional and superstitious person.    

    

Suen Hann knew exactly what the old lady was thinking. He continued to smile and said, "That's right. In our hometown, there is a saying that when the birthday gift is opened in time, it symbolizes great fortune and great fortune."    

    

"If it is not opened in time, not only will it be good for the person who has lived for a long time, it will also not be good for the person who gave the birthday gift."    

    

"My brother Yang Xuan has already been living a miserable life. Today, he gave my grandma a birthday gift. It can be considered that he has gained some fortune. Why don't you open it and take a look?"    

    

The old lady seemed to be in a dilemma and didn't know what to do for a moment.    

    

Yang Xuan suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Since there is such a saying, then open it and take a look. I also want to have some fun."    

    

"Okay, I will open the gift!"    

    

Suen Hann excitedly picked up the plastic bag and opened it in front of everyone.    

    

Everyone's eyes fell on the plastic bag. They were also very curious about what was inside.    

    

Suen Hann opened the plastic bag in front of him and said, "We have another saying. The more expensive the gift, the happier it is."    

    

"If the gift is too expensive, it means disrespect. Although my brother Yang Xuan is poor, he has always respected people. I think the gift is not that bad."    

    

After laying the groundwork, Suen Hann finally opened the plastic bag.    

    

Everyone was stunned when they saw what was inside.    

    

Inside the plastic bag, there was an egg-sized, squarish metal lump with a square handle.    

    

"What is this?"    

    

Someone asked curiously.    

    

Suen Hann suddenly slammed the table and said angrily, "Yang Xuan, what do you mean?"    

    

"Even if you have financial difficulties, it's not hard to buy any crafts at the gift shop!"    

    

"Look at what this is. It was dug out from a pile of garbage!"    

    

"This thing is obviously a waste from the waste collection station. You're giving this thing to Grandma. Are you insulting her for being a waste!?"    

    

As soon as these words were spoken, it caused the crowd at the table to become angry.    

    

"You bastard, you're simply too detestable. Your grandmother thinks so highly of you, yet you dare to insult your grandmother!"    

    

"What exactly is your intention? Today, you must kneel down and kowtow before your grandmother to apologize!"    

    

Zhang Peng's face darkened. "Yang Xuan, you must explain this matter to me clearly today. Otherwise, don't think of this door!"    

    

Suen Hann continued to exaggerate. "Grandma, today is such a big day, but this person actually gave you such a lousy thing!"    

    

"This is clearly insulting you. I know you are a good person, Grandma, but as an outsider, I can't bear to watch this anymore!"    

    

"Yang Xuan, I order you to immediately kneel down and kowtow to Grandma to apologize!"    

    

The old lady was affected by these words, and her expression became somewhat displeased.    

    

"Grandma, I'm sorry that I'm late."    

    

At this moment, Zhang Kun walked over with large strides.    

    

He had been busy greeting guests just now, and had only arrived now.    

    

When he saw the strange atmosphere at the table, he hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"    

    

Suen Hann hurriedly pointed at the lump of metal and said, "Brother Kun, this brat actually gave a piece of junk to grandma as a birthday gift. Isn't this deliberately insulting grandma?"    

    

"What!?"    

    

Zhang Kun flew into a rage. However, when his gaze fell upon the piece of junk, his expression changed drastically!
