After Grant left Thousand Treasures Hall, he hurried to the James Family villa.

Today is the day that Third Master James is discharged from the hospital, and it is also his seventieth birthday.

Although the James Family is a second-rate family, they still invited many people on such an important day.Full novel: My freeloader husband became a wealthy young master overnight — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

At the entrance of the villa, various luxury cars were parked, and people were coming and going, making it very lively.

Daisy and Lydia stood in front of a lot of traffic.

Lydia kept looking at her watch with an impatient expression.

At this time, a shared bicycle came slowly.

Grant parked the bicycle aside and ran over quickly.

“Sorry, there’s a traffic jam on the road.”

James Family held a banquet this time, and there were really too many people.

There was a lot of traffic from a long way away, and the distance from Qianbao Hall to James Family was not close, so Grant also spent a lot of time.

The James Family is a big family after all, and the vehicles coming and going are all luxury cars.

It was the first time I saw someone riding a bicycle.

Many people glanced at it and couldn’t help laughing.

“This man seems to be the useless son-in-law of the James Family, Grant?”

“That’s him. I saw him in the hospital. At that time, he wanted to steal the credit of Dr. Li, but his face was almost swollen!”

“Haha, I heard that Master Miracle Doctor Dixon will come to the banquet today. Let’s see how embarrassed he is.” Several of the Surnamed James children couldn’t help but feel amused when they recalled what happened in the hospital.

This coward was not only embarrassing, but also caused Daisy to lose her contract.

This matter was almost widely known in the James Family.

“Look, this loser is standing next to Daisy. He doesn’t even dare to touch his hand. He probably hasn’t touched her even after three years of marriage, hahaha!” The James Family children and the guests around them walked in, talking and laughing.

Hearing the jeers from around her, Lydia’s expression became increasingly grim, “Why are you so late? On such an important day, why are you here on such a shabby bicycle? How can you be so thick-skinned for so long?”

“Where is your gift? Take it out and take a look!” Lydia asked coldly.

“Here.” Grant laughed and took a box out of his pocket.

The appearance of the box is ordinary and unremarkable.

“You didn’t buy any rags, did you?” Lydia glanced at the box and felt annoyed, “When you go in, don’t get too close to me, I’m afraid I can’t afford to lose this person! Besides, after Eric and Logan arrive, also be nice Apologize to both of them, do you hear me?”

“I won’t apologize.”

Grant shook his head calmly, as if he didn’t take Eric’s threat to heart at all.

Seeing Grant’s attitude, Lydia was so angry that she stamped her feet and refused to apologize?

This coward is so shameless!

She was just about to curse a few more words when she heard a voice.

“Please, James Family disciples, wish Third Master James a happy birthday!” As soon as the words fell, everyone rushed towards the hall like a tide.

Lydia also glanced at Grant coldly and swallowed all her curse words.

At this time, Daisy quietly walked up to Grant and handed him a small box, “Grant, I know that three hundred dollars can’t buy you a gift, so I specially prepared this for you.”

The box packaging is very exquisite, and you can guess that the gift must be expensive.

“No need.” Grant honestly refused, “I really have a gift that I can give you.”

“real?”

Daisy’s suspicious eyes fell on Grant’s face.

“Why did I lie to you?” Grant shook the box in his hand again.

As a gift given by Ibrahim, on this occasion, it would definitely be high but not low.

“Even if you prepare a gift, take it first. Is your gift as good as mine?” Daisy still put the gift into Grant’s hand.

“Okay, but thanks.”

“If you have anything to thank me for, if you really want to thank me, give me some credit in the future.”

Daisy glanced at her mouth and said nothing more.

At this moment, the banquet was already full of people.

All the children of the James Family were present, and many outsiders were also present.

Apparently, Grant’s acupuncture had made him feel better.

The birthday banquet has not yet begun, and many James Family children are sitting aside, talking about something, but most of the content is about which company made how much money, or whose family just bought a luxury car.

They talked loudly and didn’t even bother to say a word to Grant.

Grant didn’t care, he wasn’t interested in the topic.

But Jackson obviously refused to let Grant go:

“Wimp, today is grandpa’s seventieth birthday. What gift did you bring?”

“Don’t buy the gift with family money like last time.”

“Or are you empty-handed?”

Jackson said with a smile, staring at Grant with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

How could he forget the scene of taking action in front of Daisy’s house?

Now that he has the opportunity, Jackson will naturally want to come back with revenge to vent his hatred.

Grant replied calmly, “I brought a gift.”

“Hahaha, you brought a gift?”

Jackson burst out laughing, “Take it out now and let me see what gift you bought!”

“Yeah, hahaha, take it out quickly.” Everyone looked at Grant, this loser made a fool of himself, which added a lot of fun to them.

“No need to look.”

Grant waved his hand.

He had already seen through the face of the James Family.

No matter what gift he presented, he would be ridiculed by everyone.

Therefore, in order to avoid these troubles, Grant did not bother to argue.

“No, it’s rare that you, a loser, have prepared a gift!”

Jackson said in a sinister tone, stepped down from the podium, picked up the gift that Grant placed on the table, and opened it in front of everyone!

Bang!

A square object fell from the box.

“A gift, a broken stone?”

All eyes were on Grant’s gift, wide-eyed.

It was a piece of jade, completely translucent, and it looked like it had been stained by time.

Underneath the jade, there are various strange symbols engraved in strong fonts, and a line of words can be faintly recognized:

“If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live forever?”

People who like antiques will recognize it at a glance.

Is the jade square and round?

Jade Seal, is this the Jade Seal of Emperor Qianlong?

“The jade seal you gave me? Hahahaha!”

Looking at this thing, Jackson couldn’t bear it anymore and burst into laughter.

“Hahaha, you really laughed me to death. You gave me a piece of jade seal as a gift? How many yuan did you get it for?”

“Isn’t this imitation too fake? I can tell at a glance that it is a street stall product sold on the roadside.”

“Yeah, this kind of thing doesn’t even exist in the Jiangnan Museum. How can you get it? Who do you think you are!”

Everyone’s laughter was like thunder, filling the entire hall.

The guests couldn’t help but laugh.

Even Third Master James had a smile on his face.

This loser was so funny.

Seeing this scene, Lydia couldn’t help but look gloomy and turned her head away.

She muttered bitterly: Useless trash!

Grant didn’t respond, just looked at the jade seal quietly, with ups and downs in his heart.

With his eyesight, he could tell the authenticity of the jade seal at a glance, but he never expected that this old man would give such an expensive gift. This chapter was copied from g.com without permission.

Although Qianlong had twenty-five square jade seals, most of them had been lost long ago, and every single one left behind was priceless!

Seeing that Grant remained silent, everyone thought he was speechless because of Jackson’s retort, and there was another burst of laughter.

“Wimp, let me show you the gift I prepared.”

Jackson clapped his hands twice, and a female secretary walked out of the crowd, holding an exquisite gold box.

He took the box from the secretary, stood up, and opened it in front of everyone:

At this moment, the crowd burst into exclamations in public.

Thousand-year-old ginseng!

Ginseng is a great tonic medicine, and Millennium Ginseng is a high-quality ginseng that is known to the public.

It is extremely precious and rare at first glance.

Once upon a time, a piece of Millennium Ginseng was auctioned in Jiangnan, and at that time, it sold for tens of millions of dollars.

Looking at this ginseng now, it is probably only a lot more than the auction price back then!

“This ginseng is priceless, but I spent a lot of effort to find it.”

Jackson made it clear that he wanted to step on Grant and show his superiority, but he couldn’t be too blatant, so he took Grant’s gift and continued the comparison:

“You loser, remember, if you don’t have money to give gifts in the future, just say so.”

“We don’t hate poor people, but what we despise most are people like you who obviously have no money but insist on buying fake goods to show off!”

The James Family relatives all agreed.

They just bought a fake jade seal that couldn’t be fake anymore.

Grant’s behavior was really shameful.

Comparing Jackson’s gifts again, there is really a difference between heaven and earth.

“Cousin, I admit that your gift is very nice.” Daisy frowned and helped Grant, “But Grant also prepared more than one gift.”

She took out the gifts from her pocket and placed them on the table.

She regretted not looking at what Grant had prepared, otherwise she would have replaced her gifts with hers.

“Even if there’s more than one, it’s probably another fake, right?”

Jackson scoffed.

“Daisy, I’m not talking about you. You are also the one who has cooperated with the Morgan Family Group. Although the cooperation has not started yet, you have made a lot of money, right? But as soon as grandpa was discharged from the hospital, you gave him this kind of gift.”

“It’s obvious that you don’t take it seriously!”

Xenia responded coldly, with a knife hidden in her words.

She was jealous of Daisy’s cooperation with the Morgan Family Group, and resented the fact that she came to apologize to Daisy.

She didn’t feel good about Daisy at all. really.

After the words fell, Third Master James couldn’t help but frown.

He was indeed a little uncomfortable with Daisy’s actions.

“If I were working with the Morgan Family Group, I would never give out such rubbish gifts.”

Everyone burst into laughter again, and their disdainful eyes fell on Daisy’s face.

Daisy blushed, “I…”

She had just received news about the cooperation with the Morgan Family Group.

The specific content and projects of the cooperation were not clear, so how could she make money.

“Daisy, don’t be angry, even though I gave you a stone.”

At this moment, Grant said calmly:

“But no matter what, it’s better than an inedible carrot.”

Grant had a gentle smile on his face.

And as his words fell.

Everyone fell silent for a moment.
