Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 445: Heirloom

So, the first time Xiao Mo ate it, he felt something was off.

But at that time, Xiao Mo had just left Ye Fei to attend kindergarten, eating outside food on his own.

He didn’t know exactly what was wrong, he just thought it tasted bad.

So, there was a lot left, and he got scolded by the teacher, being told not to waste food.

The little guy forced himself to finish eating.

After eating, he still felt wronged, clearly it tasted so bad.

When he got home, he pitifully told Ye Fei about it.

Later, the little guy realized the difference between what was made outside and what Ye Fei made by hand.

Besides some additives, there was a fundamental difference in taste.

Zhao Dinghuan said enviously to Zhao Gushen, "I didn’t expect it, you lucky guy."

Five years ago, by a stroke of luck, you met such a good girl.

That misunderstanding not only resolved the lifelong matter, but even brought a child along.

What’s even rarer is that Ye Fei was willing to give birth.

After Zhao Dinghuan sighed, he quickly turned to Chi Jingsi and said, "I’m also very lucky!"

As he spoke, he held Chi Jingsi’s outstretched hand.

Chi Jingsi was quite in sync with him.

She knew he wanted to hold her hand.

Chi Jingsi’s mouth twitched, saying, "I was going to grab a mooncake."

Zhao Dinghuan: "..."

Zhao Gushen raised his hand to form an empty fist, covering his lips that wanted to laugh, turning his laughter into a cough as it came out.

After dinner, it was getting late.

They had just had tea, mooncakes, and fruit.

By now it was almost nine o’clock, and it was about time to leave.

Even Xiao Mo was having trouble keeping his eyes open, beginning to feel sleepy.

Thus, Zhao Gushen decided to take Ye Fei and Xiao Mo home.

The old lady saw Xiao Mo’s condition and didn’t insist they stay.

"You guys wait a moment." Just as they were about to leave, the old lady stopped them.

No one knew when, but there was a square jewelry box in the old lady’s hand.

"Ye Fei, come here." The old lady beckoned Ye Fei.

Ye Fei walked over to the old lady.

The old lady opened the jewelry box, revealing a jade ring inside.

A gold ring base, with a thumb-sized jade surface in the center.

A rich green color through and through, with an even better quality than Xiao Mo’s jade pendant.

Previously, having only seen Xiao Mo’s jade pendant, it was already considered top-grade.

But compared to this ring in front of them, the pendant paled in comparison.

By the design, it seemed to be quite old.

Such a jade ring, aged and of top quality, couldn’t be easily appraised in value.

Even if it had a price, it wouldn’t be for sale.

"This is a jade ring passed down in our family." The old lady said.

Ye Fei was taken aback.

If it could be regarded as an heirloom by the Zhao Family, it could only be an antique.

Perhaps it was from the same era as those unearthed artifacts.

The old lady chuckled, "There aren’t many heirlooms left in our family, after the nation’s downfall, the ancestors chose a small number of royal family members to hide among civilians, naturally unable to take elegant items like antiques and calligraphies, only money and such were taken. Only small, easy-to-carry items like this were brought along."

"This ring is one of them," the old lady said wistfully, "The others became cultural relics."

Ye Fei: "..."

These words sounded shocking yet irrefutable.

Those relics were indeed originally belonging to their family.

"This ring has been passed down through generations. What’s unusual about our family is that we’ve never had a girl born." The old lady said worriedly, "So, the ring can only be passed down to daughters-in-law."
