Lin Fan looked at Xia Wanqiu in surprise. Didn’t she say that her grandfather liked to drink tea and wine the most?
In the end, why did he look like he did not want to talk to him? His expression was completely different from when Gao Yong gave his gift.
After a while, many gifts from relatives and friends were given to the old man.
After that, Gao Yong and the others left the Xia family.
Many relatives and friends also had lunch together.
In the afternoon, the old man carefully opened the tea leaves that Lin Fan had given him. He walked forward and smelled them. Instantly, the coldness and seriousness on his face disappeared and he smiled.
As for the porcelain from Gao Yong, it was placed in an underground corner by the old man. That kind of collection was suitable for watching from afar.
The old man took some tea leaves and placed them in the teacup. He poured hot water into it and started to make tea.
The fragrance of the tea leaves filled the air, and the old man felt refreshed.
“Dad, how are the tea leaves and wine?” Xia Wanqiu’s father, Xia Jiancheng, asked with a smile.
“Haha, Lin Fan is really thoughtful. He knows what I like and gave me tea leaves and wine. These West Lake Longjing tea leaves, Anxi Iron Guanyin, Da Hong Pao are all really good tea leaves. Furthermore, they are good tea leaves produced in Yungui District during the founding of the country. They should have been preserved for nearly 70 years. These tea leaves can be said to be out of production. The tea leaves now no longer have the taste of the past.”
“I didn’t expect Lin Fan to give me such good tea leaves. There are only so many of these tea leaves in the world. I heard that they’re not for sale. I wonder where Lin Fan got these tea leaves from.”
“Look at the taste of this tea… It’s really too delicious.”
“There’s also these wines. Every bottle of wine is already out of print. There are only three bottles of wine in the national cellar 1573. It’s a special wine for national banquets. Ordinary people can’t drink it.”
“Also, this 1960s Wuliangye is brewed in the 1960s. It’s the only bottle in the world!”
“This wheel brand Maotai was produced in 1959. At that time, it was worth at least a million yuan. Guess how much this wine is worth now. These wines all have historical memories and are all out of stock.”
“Lin Fan must have put in a lot of effort to prepare so many gifts for me. Hahaha.” The old man carefully put away the tea leaves and wine, forming a sharp contrast with the porcelain that was casually placed underground.
It was obvious what gift the old man preferred.
Hearing the old man say this, Xia Jiancheng was a little dumbfounded.
“Dad, in other words, these wines and tea leaves are the best of the best. Many people can’t even buy them. Can I drink a little?” Xia Jiancheng asked expectantly.
“I can give you a cup of tea. Don’t even think about the wine. I have to treasure this wine and savor it slowly,” the old man said. He protected the wine and the smile on his face became even more obvious.
“Dad, why are you so selfish? It’s just a glass of wine.” Xia Jiancheng was unhappy.
“What do you mean by a glass of wine? This is a limited edition wine. It was even given to me by my grandson-in-law. Hahahaha.” The old man smiled even more brightly.
“Dad, why are you calling him your grandson-in-law?” Xia Jiancheng was even more unhappy. The old man’s expression changed too quickly. In the morning, he seemed to like Gao Yong more and was very cold to Lin Fan. Why was he calling him his grandson-in-law when he got home?
“What do you know? Don’t you see how much Wanqiu likes Lin Fan? On the other hand, Gao Yong doesn’t know how to act decently. He’s far inferior to Lin Fan,” the old man said. “Do we need an outsider to point fingers at the man my granddaughter likes?”
Xia Jiancheng nodded. “Indeed, there’s a difference between Gao Yong and Lin Fan. Although he’s indeed much richer than Lin Fan, in terms of character, he’s still far inferior. Wanqiu didn’t choose the wrong person. Let me drink this tea too.”
The old man was anxious. “Pour less, pour less. There’s only so little tea leaves and you still poured so much.”
Xia Jiancheng smiled bitterly. “I only poured a little.”
The old man said, “I won’t let you drink it next time. What a waste.”
Looking at such a “petty” old man, Xia Jiancheng could only smile bitterly.
Who asked Lin Fan to give her such a good gift…
To others, this was only a gift worth hundreds of thousands.
Only someone like the old man who knew his stuff could know that these gifts were truly priceless.
“It’s delicious, it’s delicious… Dad, this tea is too delicious. It tastes mellow and fragrant. One sip and I’ll never forget it.” Xia Jiancheng was stunned. No wonder the old man liked this tea so much.
If it were him, he would like it very much too.
“Needless to say, Lin Fan’s gift is really good.” The old man’s smile became even brighter.
“Dad, then why was your attitude towards Lin Fan in the morning so cold?” Xia Jiancheng was puzzled.
The old man shook his head and said, “I only have two granddaughters. One of them has already been snatched away by Lin Fan. My precious granddaughter, Qiuqiu, is about to be stolen by Lin Fan. How can I not be angry?!”
“From another perspective, I’m also protecting Lin Fan. After all, Gao Yong is still present. If I treat Lin Fan too well and Gao Yong targets him, I’m afraid Lin Fan’s two companies won’t be able to stop him. Our Xia family won’t be able to stop the Gao family either…”
After all, the Gao family was a tyrant in Jiang City. If they really attacked, it would be difficult for many companies to withstand their fierce attacks.
