Chapter 59: Self-Degradation

In the car, Song Wanting's expression remained very cold.

For her, having a traitor in the family was already very annoying. What was even more infuriating was that this Uncle Qi actually wanted to set a trap for her in front of so many outsiders.

If she had been deceived today, the money had been given, and Uncle Qi had escaped, and if it was discovered later that she had been deceived, her face would be lost, and the face of the entire Song family would be lost!

Fortunately, Ye Chen was present, pointing out the mystery in time and avoiding the loss to her and the family.

So, she took out a bank card from the glove box in the car and handed it to Ye Chen, saying: "Mr. Ye, there is one million in this card, the password is six 8s. It's a little token of my appreciation, please accept it."

While speaking, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Ye Chen seemed to have some real talent. Why did he choose to marry into a small family? If he went out to do antique appraisal himself, he could save up quite a family business in a few years.

Ye Chen looked at the card in her hand, feeling a bit hesitant.

One million is not a small amount, but for the Song family, it's just a drop in the bucket.

Ye Chen didn't look down on this one million. After all, he still had 9.99 billion RMB in his card. This one million was just a drop in the bucket.

What's the point of accepting it?

But thinking carefully, his identity is not some trillionaire, he is the live-in son-in-law of the Xiao family.

A live-in son-in-law, if he showed no interest in one million, it would definitely make Song Wanting suspicious, so he took the card directly and said: "Then thank you, Miss Song."

Song Wanting smiled slightly: "Mr. Ye is too polite."

After speaking, Song Wanting asked again: "Where is Mr. Ye going next?"

Ye Chen smiled: "Send me to the vegetable market, I have to buy groceries and go home to cook."

Song Wanting was stunned and couldn't help but say: "I've heard about Mr. Ye's affairs. To be honest, Mr. Ye has this ability, there's no need to let the identity of a live-in son-in-law be put on you. Why not come to my Jiqing Hall to be the chief treasure appraiser? I'll give you a base salary of one million a year, what do you think?"

Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled: "I'm a person with bad teeth, I'm used to eating soft rice."

Song Wanting was stunned for a moment, then sighed.

It seems the rumors were true. This Ye Chen is just a live-in son-in-law who eats soft rice.

She thought he was just a loser before, and a loser eating soft rice was a helpless move, which was understandable.

But now it seems he is not a loser, but a loser who voluntarily degrades himself.

This was really something she couldn't accept.

Immediately, her attitude towards Ye Chen also changed.

Ye Chen knew she would look down on him, but this was the best for him. Let everyone guess him wrong, and he could laugh last.

Passing by the vegetable market, Ye Chen got out of the car to say goodbye to Song Wanting, and then bought some vegetables and went home.

And as soon as he entered the door, Ye Chen heard his father-in-law laughing wildly and shouting.

"Hahaha... Come, come! Come and see the treasure I found!"

Xiao Churan also got off work and was sitting on the sofa looking at documents. At this time, she couldn't help but stand up and say to Xiao Changkun, who was laughing: "Dad, you almost scared me to death."

"Look at this." Xiao Changkun didn't notice Xiao Churan's expression at all, and excitedly took a pair of palm-sized blue and white porcelain cups, showing them off: "This is a chicken cup I found in the antique market. I heard it was dug out from the coffin of Emperor Qian! It's worth more than 500,000!"

"More than 500,000?" Xiao Churan stood up and blurted out: "Dad, where did you get so much money?"

Ye Chen was extremely helpless. He broke the Jade Pot Spring Vase in the morning, and while he was out, the old man went to the Antique Street again?

This is a typical case of forgetting the pain once the scar is healed.

Xiao Changkun laughed and said mysteriously: "I said this cup is worth 500,000. Guess how much I bought it for?"

Xiao Churan hesitated for a moment and tentatively said: "300,000?"

"Wrong! Guess again!" Xiao Changkun waved his hand.

"200,000?"

"Still wrong!"

Ye Chen, who was beside him, glanced at the blue and white porcelain cups and instantly saw they were fakes, thinking to himself, it would be good if these things were worth 100 yuan.

At this time, Xiao Changkun didn't sell it anymore and smiled: "Hahaha, I bought it for 300 yuan! Isn't it amazing?"

Xiao Changkun laughed, unable to hide the joy on his face.

Xiao Churan's eyes widened in surprise, unable to believe it: "No way, this cup really only cost 300 yuan?"

Mother-in-law Ma Lan heard the movement and walked out of the kitchen, looking happy, "Is this cup really that valuable? It wouldn't be fake, would it?"

Xiao Changkun patted his chest: "Don't worry, the person selling the cup doesn't know the market. I even asked someone to help me look at it, and they said it's real!"

"Really?" Ma Lan carefully picked up the cup, looked at it left and right, and laughed from ear to ear.

Ye Chen stood on the side, but just smiled in agreement, his expression calm.

He saw long ago that these two cups were fakes, but it was rare for his father-in-law to be so happy, so he didn't expose it.

Xiao Changkun was extremely excited, like a cat that had stolen fish, dancing with joy: "These cups are not a set yet. The boss said he would bring the missing part tomorrow. I'll go take a look tomorrow! Strive to buy the whole set! If that's the case, the value can double several times! If I'm lucky, I can pay off the 6 million in debt!"

Ye Chen frowned and immediately stopped him: "Dad, when playing with antiques, avoid greed. Buying these two cups is enough. Besides..."

Xiao Changkun glared at him and scolded: "Besides what, what, you kid are lecturing me instead?"

Ye Chen hurriedly said: "No, no, as long as you like it."

After speaking, he was too lazy to meddle in other people's business.

Anyway, even if his father-in-law was scammed, it wasn't his money.

Xiao Churan also said: "Dad, why buy so many? These two cups can't be eaten or drunk. Besides, the price difference is so big, whether the cup is real or fake remains to be appraised."

She didn't believe in pies falling from the sky. If you could buy a treasure worth 500,000 for 300 yuan, wouldn't everyone be able to get rich?

Xiao Changkun was in the mood, and seeing a few people pouring cold water on him, he said disdainfully: "You don't understand! This is an antique, it relies on a pair of wise eyes to pick up bargains!"

As he spoke, while admiring the blue and white porcelain cups, he said to Xiao Churan: "You don't need to worry about this. There were several other people who wanted to grab it from me today. I might not be able to buy it tomorrow."

Ma Lan hurriedly said: "If it's really that valuable, you must find a way to buy it!"

Seeing the two old people busy admiring the chicken cups, Xiao Churan quietly pulled Ye Chen aside.

"I don't think this is reliable. It feels like a scam. Dad will definitely go tomorrow. You go to the Antique Street with Dad, so he won't be scammed."

Ye Chen nodded. If Xiao Churan hadn't said it, he wouldn't have bothered to care, but since his wife had spoken, he naturally couldn't stand by and watch!
