898 The Mysterious Bowl
As soon as Qin Man opened the gift box, she peered right inside. Her heart was racing in her chest and her lips were curled in anticipation.
If the gift was valuable, it would wash away all the grievances she had suffered today.
She would be remembered as something else.
Her heart was filled with so much hope. However, when her gaze landed on the piece inside the box, her heart immediately skipped a beat. fđeđđ°đbđođđl.cđźm
!!
What kind of gift was this?
What kind of general was he?
Inside the gift box was a green ceramic bowl. The bowl wasnât even in good condition, given that it had been covered in crazy lines and obvious cracks.
It looked like it had just been picked up from a trash can.
Thinking of this shabby gift, Qin Manâs face flashed with disdain. However, when she thought of everyoneâs watchful gaze, her stomach stirred.
How could he send this trash over?
If she had known earlier, she wouldnât have opened the gift!
It was really embarrassing.
Qin Man was about to close the lid, but it was already too late.
Someone had already seen it.
âOh my god!â someone had exclaimed from the back. âItâs the Ming Dynastyâs Chenghua Bowl.â
Many infatuated historians squeezed through the crowd, regarding the host with shining eyes. âThatâs priceless,â they whispered amongst each other. âYou canât acquire it even if you want to.â
Qin Man quickly opened the box even wider.
As soon as she had revealed the gift, there was a series of gasps echoing across the room. Everyoneâs envious gazes were on the box.
They wanted to touch it, and feel the priceless treasure in their hands, but they were unable to do so.
âOh my god, it canât beâŚâ
âSomeoneâs actually willing to give that treasure away?â
âThis is something that could be given to a royal family. How could they be willing to part with such a priceless bowl?â
âItâs actually the real thing!â
âThe pattern and the green glaze make it appear even more majestic. Even the museum wouldnât have something like this!â
They all examined the gift, gazing in surprise and wonder.
Qin Manâs anxious heart finally relaxed. At least she was no longer the laughingstock.
Her gift wasnât bad at all.
See? Letâs see if these snobbish people would dare look down on them again!
Her lips twitched.
As she was opening the box, she saw that there was a greeting card inside.
The card was wrapped in lace, making it appear quite exquisite.
Qin Man slowly pulled it out of the box.
With this card, sheâd know who this was from.
Thinking about the glory that the Yao Family would attain, she didnât even bother to ask her mother-in-law for permission. She tore the envelope open and was about to read it out loud.
Everyone would know that they had ties in the military!
Out of respect for the General, theyâd surely make way for them.
âThe greeting card!â Old Madam Yao was about to take it to stop her.
However, Qin Man was in such a hurry that she quickly gazed over the piece of paper.
She couldnât care less about the old woman.
âDear Grandma YaoâŚâ
Suddenly, she paused.
If the man was really a general, wouldnât this message appear quite intimate? What was really the relationship between the two?
Could it be that the gift wasnât given through military connections?
But rather through familial ties?
Everyone thought of this personâs identity as they all glanced over at each other. They all wished they could have a tie to the general themselves.
