The sign-in system hit me and took my country away

Chapter 120 Family Heirloom

Ji Mei smiled and continued, "Later, I met your grandfather. He was a kind and simple man who fell in love with me at first sight. Although my background was unknown, he did not despise me. Instead, he gave me endless love and support. In the end, we fell in love and got married, and had your father and the others."

Su Siyi listened quietly, her heart filled with emotion. It turned out that grandma had such a rough life, but she was so lucky to meet grandpa.

"So, grandma, what kind of existence are the practitioners you are talking about?" Su Siyi asked curiously.

Ji Mei thought for a moment and replied, "Cultivators are a group of people who pursue immortality and transcendence. They improve their strength by practicing techniques and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and can master all kinds of magical spells and skills. However, the path of cultivation is long and difficult, requiring great effort and cost, and more importantly, spiritual energy. And the sky we live in now has no spiritual springs, so this is the last place cultivators want to come."

Su Siyi listened intently, as if she were in a mysterious and fantastical world. She couldn't help but imagine how those practitioners practiced in seclusion in the misty mountains, how they fought against demons and monsters, and how they explored unknown territories...

"However, Siyi, these are all things of the past. Now, we live in the mortal world. Although it is ordinary, we also have our own happiness." Ji Mei gently stroked Su Siyi's hair and said with a smile.

Su Siyi nodded in understanding. She knew that whatever her grandmother had been through was now in the past.

Moreover, the world of cultivation is not a place they can go to now. There is no spiritual energy here, so if they go there, they will be the lowest people and will be bullied to death.

"Si Yi, I don't know if someone from the Ji family is causing trouble, but even if I'm an ordinary person, I still have blood connection. I thought it would gradually disappear after I came here, but it turns out I still have it." Ji Mei said.

"Grandma, if they are really from your family, what do they want?" Su Siyi asked puzzledly.

"I don't know this either, so I don't know what to do next!" Ji Mei said worriedly.

He really couldn't think of anything about him that was worth them sending people here to cause trouble.

"Grandma, did you bring anything out?" Su Siyi thought for a while and asked. There are such plots in novels, and novels are also based on reality. Maybe her grandma brought out some treasure and she doesn't even know it.

"What did I bring? The only thing I brought was a jade pendant my mother gave me, and I gave you that jade pendant when you were born!" Ji Mei thought about it carefully and realized that the only thing she had with the world over there was the jade pendant her mother left her.

"Jade pendant, I don't remember having any jade pendant on me!" Su Siyi thought about it and didn't remember wearing any jade pendant.

"That jade pendant is called a jade pendant, but to outsiders it is not a jade pendant but a very inconspicuous black stone." Ji Mei recalled the appearance of the jade pendant and said simply.

"Ah? Where is it now?" Su Siyi asked anxiously.

"I don't know, but it's very likely that it disappeared with you. I remember that I never asked you to take it off at that time." Ji Mei shook his head helplessly. It would be great if there was no kidnapping.

"That's what I brought out, but I couldn't remember it. Oh, I remembered that the last time the director of the orphanage got into trouble, he gave me something." Su Siyi thought about it carefully, and there really was a box of something. She hadn't checked it, and she didn't know if there was the jade pendant her grandmother mentioned.

"Did you bring that thing?" Ji Mei asked her expectantly.

"I brought it. I'll go get it from my room." She didn't actually bring it, but now all her valuables were placed in her space button, so naturally she could say she brought it.

Su Siyi stood up and left the study, quickly walking into her own room. She closed the door, then opened the space button and took out the box. The box looked ordinary, nothing special, but she knew it might hold an important secret. She took a deep breath and carefully opened the box.

There was a set of clothes in the box, which might be the clothes she wore before being kidnapped. There was also a pendant inside, which was as black as an ordinary stone. It was very likely the jade pendant that grandma mentioned.

There was nothing else in the box. She took the box and walked out of the room and went straight to the study.

At this moment, Su Sheng and the others were anxiously waiting for her return.

"Siyi, how about that thing?" Ji Mei looked at her expectantly and asked her when she came in.

Su Sheng also stared at her expectantly.

"Yes, the things in this box were given to the dean by someone before I lost my memory." Su Siyi put the box on the table.

She simply opened the box, took out the pendant and handed it to them to see.

"This is indeed the jade pendant I gave you." Ji Mei took it and looked at it carefully. It was indeed the jade pendant she gave her.

"Grandma, isn't this a very ordinary pendant?" Su Siyi asked doubtfully.

Ji Mei smiled and said, "This is not an ordinary pendant, it's a family heirloom."

Su Siyi became even more curious: "Huh? Why?"

Ji Mei recalled the past and said slowly: "This is what my mother left me. I remember she told me to give it to the first daughter of the next generation and to pass it down like this. But I didn't give birth to a daughter, so your father and others didn't know about this thing. And you are the first daughter of your generation, so I gave it to you when you were born."

Su Siyi opened her mouth in surprise: "So that's it..."

Ji Mei continued, "Later, you got into trouble and found the fake, and I discovered the pendant was missing. At that time, the fake was emotionally unstable, and I didn't dare ask any more questions. I could only feel regretful that I couldn't complete the task my mother left me."

Su Siyi widened her eyes in surprise: "Ah? So that's how it is..."

She picked up the pendant and examined it carefully, exclaiming, "Then this pendant must be at least a hundred years old!"

Ji Mei nodded: "It must be more than that. Although it looks small, it can be considered an antique."

After all, my mother also adopted it from her grandmother, and it is impossible to trace how many generations it has been passed down.
