Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Smashed_1
"It’s not even worth twenty or thirty bucks, you think it’s worth twenty or thirty thousand?"
Luo Zitong said with scorn, "Mo Han, do you think you’re still that multi-millionaire boss from before?"
"Wake up! Your company went bankrupt a year ago, you’ve been penniless for a long time!"
"If it weren’t for my cousin supporting you, you wouldn’t even know where to beg for food!"
At this moment, Wang Qiang also looked Mo Han up and down and said teasingly, "Brother-in-law, right? I heard from Zi Tong that you’ve got a limp and no company wants you, how about coming to work at my building materials square?"
"We’re actually short of a janitor, and though you’re limping, sweeping the toilets shouldn’t be too much of a problem."
"Here, I’ll make the decision, the cleaning of the ladies’ restrooms will be your job! Three thousand a month, lunch included, how about that?"
To have a man in his prime clean toilets, and women’s at that, was a humiliation beyond words!
Luo Ning was trembling with anger, on the verge of exploding.
"Sorry, I have too much masculine energy, so cleaning the ladies’ restrooms isn’t suitable for me, but you have lingered in places of ill repute for quite some time, you’re full of yin energy," Mo Han said calmly, hands behind his back, "This sacred job of cleaning the ladies’ restrooms is more suitable for you."
Lingered in places of ill repute for quite some time? Wasn’t that implying he had been looking for women?
The guests immediately started murmuring among themselves, and Luo Zitong looked at Wang Qiang with a doubtful eye.
"You’re full of shit! When have I ever been to such a place! If you slander me again, I’ll beat you to death," Wang Qiang was enraged and moved forward to grab Mo Han by the neck.
"What’s all this noise about!"
With so many guests watching, Luo Yuantu of course wouldn’t allow a fight to break out, he gave Mo Han a cold look and said indifferently, "Mo Han, since you’ve bought a gift, then bring it out."
"Alright!"
Mo Han nodded and, with everyone watching, placed the paper bag on the table and took out something wrapped in a napkin.
Peeling back the layers of the napkin, there appeared a Phoenix Tail Jade Hairpin, glowing green, exquisitely carved.
Whoosh!
All eyes were drawn to it.
Even Old Lady Luo at the main seat looked over.
Beautiful! It was truly beautiful!
Not only was the hairpin uniquely shaped, but the craftsmanship was also meticulous; if it was indeed made of jade, just the workmanship alone would be worth tens of thousands.
A guest who was fond of antiques was so delighted that he took out his phone to take a photo of the hairpin.
Luo Ning was also seeing such a finely crafted hairpin for the first time, she blinked and said, "Mo Han, did you really just spend two thousand yuan on this hairpin? Where did you buy it, are there any more?"
"Uh..." Mo Han said with a stiff smile, "I got this from the antique street in the old district for two thousand yuan. You know how it is on the antique street, mostly one-of-a-kind items, so there aren’t any duplicates."
"If you like, I’ll find time to go look around and dig up another one for you?"
Mo Han did not lower his voice on purpose, so the people around heard him.
"Pfft... I thought it was something good, turns out it’s just a piece of junk from the antique street," Wang Qiang sneered and picked up the hairpin from the table to examine it, "The color does look quite authentic, too bad, the weight is off, too light! This is made of plastic!"
Luo Zitong was thrilled and mocked, "Brother-in-law, did a donkey kick your head, buying a plastic piece for two thousand yuan as a gift for grandma?"
"You think grandma is a fool and can’t tell?"
Upon hearing it was a fake, Old Lady Luo slammed the table and said, "Scoundrel! Scoundrel! Get this trash out of here!"
Mother-in-law Yang Meifeng couldn’t hold back any longer, she stood up in anger, pointing at Mo Han and shouted, "Mo Han! You prodigal son! You’re still not embarrassed enough today?"
"Get out! Get out now! Our family doesn’t have a son-in-law like you! Get out!"
The rest of the relatives also stood up, all shouting abuses.
"Being broke is one thing, but trying to fool Old Lady Luo with a fake from the antique street is just disgraceful!"
"Mei Feng is too good-natured, if I had such a son-in-law, I would have chased him out the door with a broom a long time ago!"
"Old Lady Luo’s seventy-year-old birthday party, entirely spoiled by this trash, such a disgrace to the Luo family..."
Being cursed at by his mother-in-law in full view of everyone, and being mocked by the entire Luo family.
Even if Mo Han was usually good-tempered, he could no longer bear it, he snatched back the hairpin and, with a frosty gaze at the crowd, said in a chilling voice, "You all say this thing is fake, made of plastic?"
"Fine! Let’s see if it’s really made of plastic!"
In front of everyone, Mo Han took the hairpin and threw it heavily on the ground.
"Bang!"
The hairpin broke into over a dozen pieces in an instant, and a few shades of soft green light appeared at the broken edges.
"Chalcedony? This is chalcedony! This is real! It’s real!"
Someone recognized the chalcedony at the break and couldn’t help but exclaim.
Luo Zitong and Wang Qiang were immediately dumbstruck, could it be? Could it be that this hairpin was actually real?
Old Lady Luo’s heart skipped a beat, she actually had been somewhat tempted when she first saw the Phoenix Tail Jade Hairpin, but when her granddaughter and Wang Qiang said it was a fake, she lost interest.
But who knew that once it was smashed, it turned out to be real.
"Chen Chen, want some fries? Daddy will take you to get some!" Mo Han, not wanting to stay any longer, said softly to his daughter.
Chen Chen nodded, excitedly responding, "Yes!"
Luo Ning didn’t want to stay either and nodded her head, "I’ll go too."
And so, the family of three walked out in plain sight of everyone watching.
Just then, the middle-aged man who had taken a photo of the hairpin with his phone suddenly exclaimed:
"Oh my God! Is this the Cui Ling Jade Hairpin that was auctioned off for thirty million at the Harbor City auction house three years ago?"
"This is a treasure once worn by the Empress Dowager during the Guangxu period!"
"How did it end up here..."
