Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1579: Too Much Hatred Piled Up in My Heart
The two father and son cast a puzzled glance at Qin Yize.
Qin Yize set aside his handkerchief and said in a deep voice, "I heard the Old Patriarch say that before 1960, all of the jade ornaments from Yubao Square had the imperial mark of Yubao Square engraved on them. After that year’s Spring Festival, there were no more. So, I can preliminarily judge that this is an early jade ornament from Imperial Capital’s Imperial Treasure Chest..."
"Yubao Square’s item?" Director Du was stunned and suddenly murmured, "Why haven’t I heard Xiao Tian’s biological mother mention it?"
If it is a Yubao Square piece from nearly thirty years ago, its value today could be hundreds of times higher, especially since many of the past jade stones were of superior quality.
"How would you know? Did you even have time to listen to what my mom said? You were always working overtime, I sometimes didn’t see you for half a month, but afterwards, humph..."
Du Tian couldn’t help but let out a mocking laugh.
After his younger brother and sister were born, his father’s visits became more frequent...
Father didn’t dislike his mother and him, he just didn’t like them enough.
Director Du’s face flushed red with anger, "I was indeed busy then, I was so busy to give you and your mother a better life."
"Enough of that, a better life is enjoyed by someone else." Du Tian sneered sarcastically.
"You ungrateful son, are you trying to anger me to death?" Director Du’s hands trembled with rage.
"Alright, Du Tian, don’t upset Uncle, today we’re not discussing grievances, just the theft of the jade ornament." Qin Yize said sternly, looking at Director Du, "Uncle, did you think it was just an ordinary piece of jadeite?"
Director Du calmed his breathing before slowly speaking, "Xiao Tian’s biological mother mentioned it, but at the time I didn’t take it seriously. After all, it was something Xiao Tian’s grandmother gave her. It was her possession, and she often knocked the jade bracelet for the child to listen to, or let Xiao Tian play with it. I just thought it was an ordinary piece of jadeite that wasn’t worth much. You know, I don’t understand these things, my head is always filled with circuits and vacuum tubes, I’ve never paid attention to this, so over the years I’ve really forgotten about it..."
Qin Yize glanced at Director Du, knowing in his heart that what he said was true.
Moreover, in our country’s vacuum tube technology field, he made significant contributions.
No matter how his character might be, this is an indisputable achievement.
Du Tian turned his gaze aside.
Qin Yize seriously spoke, "Uncle, I believe Du Tian’s memory isn’t wrong. That is to say, three years ago, these items were still present, and from Du Tian’s description, they are all top-grade jade stones. With Qiaoqiao at Yubao Square, I am certainly familiar with these as well. I have preliminarily estimated that these items are worth at least half a million yuan or more. Especially the Zixia Smoky Jade Pendant, now increasingly rare, its value is immeasurable..."
"Half a million?" Director Du exclaimed.
His salary was high, comparable to that of a minister. Yet half a million would mean not eating or drinking for twenty-five years.
He glanced at these items, then closed the red sandalwood box and pushed it towards Du Tian, a flicker of hesitation and reluctance in his eyes, but he gritted his teeth, knowing Qin Yize was present.
"Xiao Tian, take these things back to your home."
The reluctance in his father’s eyes was clear to him, and Du Tian’s heart instantly sank into an icy abyss. He coolly said, "Dad, these are my mom’s relics left for me. I came today to take them back, even if you want them, I wouldn’t give you a single piece. But it’s not fair to let this go after the theft, didn’t you hear Ah Ze say? Their value is over half a million yuan, if we catch the thief, he could be sentenced to death."
"You!" Director Du’s face turned red with anger, "Is that what you think of me?"
"Do you dare to swear on my mother’s soul that you didn’t want to keep some of the items for Du Yu and Du Mingzhu just now?" Du Tian suddenly asked aggressively.
"Du Tian!" The veins on Director Du’s forehead throbbed, "You ungrateful son, they are still your brother and sister. Can’t you act like a big brother?"
"I’ve done well as a big brother, giving up my home and my father to them. What more do you want, to eat my flesh and drink my blood? Dad, I’m married with a son, I have to support my own family now..."
Du Tian’s voice was full of scorn.
"Du Tian, stop it." Qin Yize frowned, grabbing Du Tian’s shoulder and patting it soothingly, "Du Tian, what do you want to do? Report it to the police?"
The father-son grudges are indeed numerous.
It wasn’t the first time he saw the father and son quarrel.
However, it was just loud arguments, seeing Director Du’s face change, Du Tian stopped talking.
In fact, he has always been a very filial son.
Trying his best to maintain a facade of father-son harmony.
Yet this time, Du Tian seemed to intend to break all ties.
Qin Yize thought this must be the breaking point after reaching the limit.
Since moving out, Du Tian thought he saw things lightly, that he didn’t care anymore, but who knew, it wasn’t that he didn’t care, nor that he forgot, it was deeply buried in his heart, he simply stopped thinking about it.
Today, with his mother’s precious relic lost, both new and old resentments surged up within him, uncontrollable and explosive.
Qin Yize’s friends and brothers, none truly amiable like gentlemen, kind and soft, really swallowing pride; otherwise, they wouldn’t be friends.
However, now is not the time for quarrels, some matters need sorting out, but not today.
Du Tian took deep, heavy breaths, Qin Yize and Chu Chengfeng know the matters of his family, he naturally didn’t fear being mocked by them.
As his father ages, he really doesn’t want to quarrel with him anymore.
Especially seeing him taking blood pressure medication.
Especially since having a son, he’s realized the hardships of being a parent.
When he was young, he was also happy.
Dad always liked lying on the ground letting him ride like a pony, shouting with joy, then playing games with him on the floor, while mom busied in the kitchen. Back then, when night fell, the kitchen always filled the house with the aroma of food.
He hasn’t forgotten these.
But with mom’s passing, it all vanished.
He not only lost his mom, it seemed overnight, he lost his dad too.
Now, he has a family and career, his childhood sweetheart Xiaotong became his wife, they also have a cute and beautiful son.
Life seems very complete, with no need for excessive demands.
So be it, when father ages and needs him, he will be a dutiful son.
He buried all the grievances.
But too much hatred piled up in his heart, nowhere to place, suffocating him.
Today, the disappearance of his mother’s jewelry made him lose control.
However, he can endure.
Ah Ze is right, retrieving the jewelry is the priority.
Yet if they report it, where’s the evidence?
