Chapter 361 Rare medicinal herbs came from Jiang Youli's hands
Jiang Youli took the red box from Uncle Zhou, opened it, looked at the red amulet inside, and smiled, "Thank you, uncles and aunts."
With Uncle Zhou and others taking the lead, the other guests also stepped forward one by one and handed their gifts to Jiang Youli.
Zhou Yi gave him a limited edition fountain pen.
The Zhang family's gifts for the last meeting were quite extravagant, consisting of yachts, private jets, or rare treasures. This time, however, they seemed much more modest.
The eldest son of the Zhang family said, "This is a painting I specially drew for you."
After saying that, he unfurled the scroll in his hand, and the woman in the scroll bore an eighty percent resemblance to Jiang Youli.
The scene depicting Jiang Youli in the painting is from when she played the piano at the welcoming banquet last time.
Jiang Youli exclaimed, "It's so beautifully drawn! Thank you, Uncle!"
Qi An'an's voice came from afar: "Wow! Please, Uncle, draw one for me too!"
As soon as this was said, the whole audience burst into laughter.
"Go away, who's your uncle!" The eldest son of the Zhang family waved his hand.
Qi An'an stuck out her tongue.
After pushing his eldest brother aside, the fifth son of the Zhang family stepped forward and said, "Youli, come here, I specially made three nests for your three little snakes."
Upon hearing this, the three small snakes that had been hiding in the dress's concealed pouch poked their heads out and stared curiously at the snake nest that Zhang's fifth son had made for them.
"Look, Little Black, Little White, and Little Green like it very much."
Next was the second son of the Zhang family, who said, "I specially ordered a medicine box for you so that you can carry it with you all the time."
The third son of the Zhang family said, "I ordered three needle cases for you, each embroidered with one of your three little snakes."
Jiang Youli accepted the gifts one by one, saying, "I really like them!"
In the end, only the fourth son of the Zhang family was left.
He took out a photo album. "Youli, these are photos and videos of your mother when she was a child. I compiled them into an album. I think you would also like to see what your mother looked like when she was a child."
Jiang Youli's eyes lit up. "Of course! Thank you, Fourth Uncle!"
The other four uncles: "..."
This time, the fourth brother still delivered the decisive blow.
Jiang Yehan laughed and said, "Youli, show this to me later too. I haven't seen many photos of your mother when she was a child."
Zhang Susu nudged his arm, "Then I want to see your childhood photos too!"
Jiang Yehan grabbed her hand and said indulgently, "Okay, I'll get it sorted out for you later."
Seeing that the Zhang family had already given their gifts to Jiang Youli, Qi An'an turned to Qi Huan and said, "Brother Huan, let's take our gifts and give them to him too!"
Qi Huan nodded, "Okay."
At this moment, Grandpa Qi took out a box made of golden nanmu wood and handed it to his eldest grandson, Qi Huan, saying, "Help me take this gift to Youli."
Qi Huan accepted the old man's gift and nodded, "Okay, Grandpa."
Qi An'an was the first to stand up and walk behind Qi Huan's wheelchair, saying enthusiastically, "Brother Huan, let me help you push your wheelchair!"
Seeing that Qi Huan and Qi An'an had already walked towards Jiang Youli, Zhou Zerui thought for a moment, glanced at Old Master Qi, and also got up and followed.
Walking up to Jiang Youli, Qi Huan handed her a box made of golden nanmu wood and a file folder placed on top of it, and said with a smile, "Xiao Li, this is a gift from my grandfather and me."
As soon as Jiang Youli received the gift, Qi An'an asked curiously, "Brother Huan, what gifts did you and Grandpa give to your cousin's wife?"
Although he was asking Qi Huan, his eyes were fixed on Jiang Youli.
Jiang Youli smiled. "I'm curious too."
The Zhang family members who had just given out the gift also craned their necks to look, curiously saying, "Youli, open it and let us see. The eldest young master of the Qi family will be your husband in the future. This is your first birthday celebration, so it can't be too shabby."
Qi Huan humbly replied, "I wouldn't dare."
Jiang Youli chuckled and asked, "Which one did you give it to?"
Qi Huan said, "The file folder."
“Then I’ll look at Grandpa Qi’s first.” With that, Jiang Youli opened the box made of golden nanmu wood.
There were some seeds clearly visible on it.
Qi An'an asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Jiang Youli immediately recognized them: "These are rare medicinal herb seeds from abroad, not available in China, because they are difficult to cultivate."
After saying that, she looked at Grandpa Qi and said, "Thank you for the gift, Grandpa Qi."
"I'm glad you like it." Old Master Qi sighed. "I know you've cultivated a lot of rare medicinal herbs. I only found out after you gave me a rare herb at the last welcome banquet. It turns out that all the rare medicinal herbs sold at the largest auction house in Beijing came from your hands. You're truly a young talent."
Hearing this, Jiang Yangxu and Jiang Li were both shocked.
Every year, rare medicinal herbs are snapped up by the wealthy at Beijing's largest auction house, but apart from the auction house owner, no one knows who supplies the herbs.
But unexpectedly, this person, who was far away, was right in front of me!
No wonder...
No wonder the auction house owner came to Jiang Youli and Qi Huan's engagement party last time!
……
"What?! All those rare medicinal herbs in Beijing's largest auction house were cultivated by Jiang Youli?"
Inside the private room of the Never-Sleeping City, everyone, including Long Yuan, was shocked to hear Old Master Qi's words.
“Those rare medicinal herbs, if you auction one in Beijing, it would be worth at least five million. Doesn’t that mean she’s incredibly rich?!” Li Zixuan realized, and while surprised, he felt even more regret.
If he had known how awesome Jiang Youli was, he wouldn't have provoked her like that in the group chat!
Long Yuan felt very uncomfortable.
You should know that he once bid for a plant for his father, spending 50 million to acquire it. If it weren't for that rare medicinal herb, his father might have died long ago.
No wonder!
No wonder Jiang Youli dared to be so arrogant as soon as she returned to Beijing; it turns out she had this trump card up her sleeve!
Jiang Youli, how many cards do you still have up your sleeve?
With this trump card, Long Yuan needs to consider whether or not to completely eliminate Jiang Youli.
After all, those medicinal herbs are really valuable, and it would be great if they could be used exclusively by the Long family!
……
After opening Old Master Qi's gift, it was Qi Huan's turn.
After handing Grandpa Qi's gift to the pretty mother, Jiang Youli opened the file bag.
Qi An'an had already stuck her head out.
Jiang Youli took out the document from the file bag; it was a post-nuptial agreement.
"It really is!" Qi An'an exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Youli glanced at the agreement and it meant that if Qi Huan cheated on her or initiated a divorce after the marriage, all of his assets would belong to Jiang Youli, and she would leave with nothing.
Of course, it also mentions additional conditions for exploiting vulnerabilities.
It can be said that if Qi Huan dares to cheat, he will definitely leave with nothing.
“Huanhuan, there’s really no need for this. You know I’m not short of money. All of the Jiang family’s assets now belong to me.” Jiang Youli looked up at Qi Huan, meeting his focused and affectionate gaze.
Qi Huan said seriously, "It's your business if you don't lack money, but it's my business to make a promise. After all, verbal promises have no binding force; only real money can live up to the promise I made to you."
He paused for a moment and then smiled, “Actually, this agreement is just an empty promise to you in a sense, because I believe I will not betray you, and you probably will never have the chance to leave me with nothing in your entire life.”
