Mo Biyu who was sitting beside Old madam, unwrapped the gift for her and pulled out a leafy green Cashmere Coat, the coat was tucked with buttons that were slightly bigger then the size of a thumb pad and were made of Imperial Jade with total of eight buttons on it . The gift was both expensive and considerate .
"Such a good child . A perfect gift for elder people . " One of the ladies standing nearby, who was a relative of Fei Yan commented .
"She has always been a very good child . " Mo Biyu said with a smile on her face . She has always treated Fei Yan as her daughter, so she was naturally happy to see her gift . On the other hand old madam didn't react much . She was the old madam of the Wu family and lacked nothing . Such materialistic gifts didn't mean anything to her . However to give Fei Yan some face, she smiled politely .

And soon after other people nodded their heads in agreement . They were impressed by her gift .
Fei Yan had a smug smile on her face . She looked in the direction of Wu Zhang, who was bringing Song Jia over to introduce her to the family . She was sure he has seen everything and expected him to be impressed .
"Are you nervous?"
Song Jia was constantly fidgeting her fingers and Wu Zhang had noticed it . She had never felt the love of family, so being nervous to meet his family was obvious . She nodded her head in response . "A little . "
He took her hand in his and patted the back of her palm, "Don't be . I am with you . "
"OK, let's go . " They walked towards old madam hand in hand . And that is when they saw Fei Yan being praised by everyone .
"Grandma, I have brought someone to meet you . " Wu Zhang said with a smile . All the guests nearby turned their head towards them . Everyone was curious to know who the pretty woman with Wu Zhang was .
Old madam's facial expression immediately brightened seeing the beautiful woman standing with her grandson . She had somewhat guessed that she is the girl Wu Zhang had mentioned .
"Meet Song Jia, Xiao Jia this is my grandmother . " Wu Zhang introduced the two ladies as he placed his arm around Song Jia's back and pulled her closer, squeezing the side of her arm lightly . This little gesture comforted her a lot and the last bit of nervousness got erased .
"Hello grandma, I am Song Jia . " She greeted the old woman with a smile . "Happy Birthday grandma, I wish you live long "and she extended her hands to present her gift, that she has prepared for the old lady .
It was a basket completely wrapped in pink wrapping paper and in the basket were four hard boiled red dyed eggs, along with eggs were some traditional chinese health tonics .
Old madam smiled brightly seeing the gift . An old lady who had all the money in the world could only wish for long life . And the eggs were a symbol of longevity . It was what she called a considerate gift . She placed her hand on Song Jia's cheek and patted it adoringly where as Mo Biyu was a little displeased . But she didn't let it show on her face .
Fei Yan who was standing just a little distance away was burning with jealousy . She tried to supress her anger by piercing her nails in her palm . She dug it so hard that her knuckles turned white whereas her delicately made up face turned dark . She could not bear to see that the old madam received Song Jia's cheap gift with so much enthusiasm, while the gift for which she spent a fortune was not even spared a second glance . How could the old idiot be so happy to see four cheap eggs in a filthy basket?
