993 Family Heirloom

After dinner, Zhuang Liu and Zhuang Yan went to the study to discuss work, while Shen Jing took Tan Rou for a walk in the manor and pa.s.sed on some experience to her.

“Rourou, women should never give up their hobbies and jobs after they get married, especially you. You have your own company and you have such strong abilities. You can’t waste them,” Shen Jing said earnestly.

Tan Rou knew this very well. In fact, many big families did not allow their wives to work. Although they did not have to worry about food or clothing, sometimes they would feel uneasy. Big families liked business marriages, and a marriage without emotions was even less rea.s.suring.

“Mom, I know. No matter what, I won’t give up my career,” Tan Rou replied.

Shen Jing was very satisfied. She held Tan Ron’s hand tightly and said gently, “Come to a place with me.”

Tan Rou did not ask where she was going. Shen Jing would not harm her anyway.

Shen Jing brought Tan Rou to a small house. The house was old but not broken. Instead, it was very st.u.r.dy. The outer walls of the house were covered with green plants, surrounding the entire house.

Tan Rou thought of the ancient castle that she and Zhuang Liu lived in overseas. It was similar to this one. No wonder Old Master Zhuang liked that ancient castle.

Shen Jing came to the front door. The door of this house was very strong, and there was more than one lock on the door. She took out a bunch of keys from her bag and started to unlock the door.

Tan Rou was just curious why Shen Jing needed a backpack for her walk. It turned out that it was because there were keys in the bag. However, this key was a little too old, as if it was an antique from more than a hundred years ago.

“This is my treasure vault.” Shen Jing explained, “After I got married into the family, the old man gave me this st.u.r.dy house. The dowry I brought from my mother’s family is all here.”

“Is it appropriate for you to bring me here?” Tan Rou asked.

Shen Jing chuckled. “The dowry is for my daughter. I already treat you as my daughter. Why is it inappropriate for you to come here?”

After the door lock was unlocked, Shen Jing touched the wall next to her a few more times. It was unknown which brick she pressed, but the tightly shut door slowly opened. Tan Rou could tell from the sound of the door opening that it was very st.u.r.dy. Even if they bombarded it with artillery, it wouldn’t break it down.

The room was very dark. Although there were windows, they were very high up and very small, so not much light could enter.

Shen Jing turned on the lights in the room. The light was not very bright, but it was enough to see the entire room. There were two floors in total, and each floor had many bookshelf-like cabinets and some large wooden boxes. Moreover, the wood used to make the box was emitting a fragrance. It seemed to be sandalwood.

Shen Jing led Tan Rou to a cabinet on the second floor. She opened one of the cabinets and took out a big box.

“Follow me to this side. Help me switch on the lights.” Shen Jing said.

Tan Rou turned on the b.u.t.ton on the wall, and the place where they were lit up a little. Only then did she see that there was a sofa and a table on this floor. There was even a small lamp above the table.

“My mother left this for me.” Shen Jing caressed the grayish-green box with a faint smile on her face.

“The night before my wedding, she specially called me to my room and gave me this box. She said that her mother left this for her and that it’s our family heirloom.”

Tan Rou could almost guess why Shen Jing had brought her here, but she was not Shen Jing’s daughter. Shen Jing should not have given her this.

Shen Jing carefully opened the box and flipped over the layers of red cloth. Finally, the contents were revealed. It was a pair of jade bracelets of very good quality. Under the light, they looked like flowing green water.

“So beautiful! This is the most beautiful bracelet I’ve ever seen,” Tan Rou exclaimed. Seeing this pair of bracelets, Tan Rou realized how cheap the bracelets she had bought earlier were.

Shen Jing looked at the pair of jade bracelets and said, “It’s already very rare to have one bracelet of this color, let alone two identical ones.”
