Song Cheng took the painting and left. Tan Ron was not in a hurry to leave. She scanned the QR code in the shop and transferred 200,000 to the boss. This was the maximum amount of payment through QR pay that was allowed.
The boss did not understand. “What do you mean by giving me money?”
“Because 1 bought this painting from you, Boss. 1 earned a large amount of money from it so 1 should at least give you some.” Tan Rou explained.
The boss was still upset because he lost money just now, but now he felt much better. Losing the painting pained him, but getting 200,000 yuan for nothing was still something to be happy about.
After Zhuang Liu saw Tan Rou transfer money to his boss, he liked Tan Rou even more. Rourou was indeed a really land girl.
After leaving the antique art shop, Tan Rou was both happy and sad. “1 was going to give that painting to Dad as a birthday present. 1’11 just say that 1 bought it by accident. Now that 1 sold the painting, 1 would have to choose another gift.”
“There are other things here. Let’s go and take a look.” Zhuang Liu said.
“Something else…” Tan Rou tried to recall what else her father had in his study besides paintings.
Xiao Mo walked over. He didn’t go to the calligraphy shop with Zhuang Liu and the others, but went to the jade shop next door. He wanted to buy a jade bracelet for his mother, but he didn’t know much about the things here. Besides, he didn’t want to buy a jade worn by others for his mother. After looking around, he came back to Zhuang Liu and the others.
“I don’t understand the jade here. It’s better to go to a regular shop outside to buy it.” Xiao Mo said.
“Jade?” Tan Rou suddenly remembered. “My father seems to like jade too. He has a simple jade bracelet and often plays with it. I can even give him a jade token to keep him safe. It just so happens that his birthday is coming.”
“Uncle’s birthday is coming soon?” Zhuang Liu understood why she wanted to buy something. He asked nervously, “What gift should 1 give?””
Tan Rou chuckled. “Why are you preparing a gift for him? You’re not his children.”
Zhuang Liu had long regarded Father Tao as his future father-in-law. Knowing that it was his future father-in-law’s birthday, he would definitely give him a gift.
“1’11 give him one too. This way he would be happier.” Zhuang Liu thought that he must pick a good gift.
“Alright then.” Tan Rou knew that he was not short of money, so she did not refuse. “Let’s go to the jade shop to take a look and pick a jade token for him.”
“Sure!” Xiao Mo interrupted. “1 also wanted to buy a jade bracelet for my mom.”
Xiao Mo’s words reminded Tan Rou that even though it was her father’s birthday, her mother might be upset if she only gave her father a birthday present and not her mother. After thinking about it, Tan Rou decided to buy two presents. She would also buy two presents for her mother’s birthday in the future. That way, none of her parents would be sad.
They drove to the largest jade trading street in the city. This street was full of jade shops. Tan Rou chose the best jade shop that she saw. The quality of a large jade shop might not be completely good, but there would definitely be a lot of goods. There would also be a lot of high-end jade.
Zhuang Liu asked Xiao Mo to look at the jade by himself. Xiao Mo glanced at the gilded signboard on the door and knew that he couldn’t afford the jade here. It was better to go to another shop.
So, only Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu were left in the store. Tan Rou had no objections to pushing Zhuang Liu’s wheelchair. Moreover, the two of them got along well, as if they were used to going out with each other. They had only known each other for a few months, but it was as if they had known each other for a long time.
This shop was called Drunken Jade Pavilion, which meant that they were obsessed with jade. It has a nice name and there was a large array of jade to be picked. There were three floors in total, and all of them sold jade. The jades on each floor were much more exquisite than the last.
There was a jade carving painting as they entered the door. It was made of green and white jade and was two meters long. It was carved with the words ‘Seventy Fairies of Penglai’ and it was incredible.
Tan Rou walked around the first floor. The items were alright, but the quality jades were not of her choice. The area where they harvested the jade was not the best but the carving works were. It was already incredibly difficult to be able to carve ordinary jades into such pendants.
“Let’s go upstairs and take a look.” Tan Rou didn’t want to waste her time on ordinary items. If she wanted to buy something, she would buy the best for her parents.
“Hey, isn’t this the ex-eldest daughter of the Tan family?” A gorgeously dressed girl carrying a bag appeared in Tan Ron’s line of sight. Her red lips were opened in shock. “You actually have money to shop in a jade shop? Could it be that it’s really like what the Tan family said? Did you steal a lot of money when you left?”
Tan Ron’s expression changed when she saw her.. Why did this woman return to the country?
