Soon, the four arrived at the middle hall.
At this moment, an old man with his hand behind his back was looking at the birdcage hanging in the
yard. From a distance, the old man was dressed in plain clothes, looking quite hale and hearty.
Horace walked in with Philip and the others. He bowed slightly to the old man and said, “Grand Elder,
Philip has brought his wife and child to visit you.”
The grand elder turned around with a benevolent smile. He looked at Philip who was grinning broadly,
stretched out his hand in a beckon, and said, “Little Monkey, are you finally willing to come back and
visit this lonely old man?”
Philip stepped forward, bowed to the old man, and said with a smile, “Grand Elder, I’m here to visit
you.”
The old man rolled his eyes at Philip before looking at Wynn and Mila who were standing with
trepidation on the side.
Then, with a smile on his face, he beckoned to Wynn and Mila while saying, “Come here, all of you.
There are not so many rules to follow here.”
Wynn stepped forward with Mila in her arms, bowed to the old man, and said respectfully, “Grand
Elder…” Then, she said to Mila in her arms, “Mila, this is your great-grand elder.”
Mila was still a little scared of strangers. With her two big eyes that were as bright as gems, she
glanced at Philip before calling out to the old man, “Great-grand Elder…”
“Hey, good girl. She’s a member of our Clarke family, indeed. She was carved out of the same mold as
this little stinking monkey!”
With a happy smile on his face, the grand elder motioned to the butler next to him, “Hurry up, take out
the things I prepared.”
The butler immediately fetched three objects from the room, one of which was a white jade bracelet.
The grand elder handed it to Wynn and said, “Little Monkey’s wife and the young madam of the Clarke
family, I have nothing good to give you. This is something your great-great-grandmother left behind. I’ll
pass it down to you today.”
Wynn was flattered and quickly bowed as she accepted the white jade bracelet with both hands. She
said, “Thank you, Grand Elder.”
The old man nodded kindly and motioned Wynn to get up. Then, he took a golden locket from the
butler’s hand, bent over, handed it to Mila. He said, “Your name is Mila, right?”
Mila looked at the old man with her big soulful eyes. She glanced at Philip and Wynn before she
nodded and replied, “Yes, my name is Mila Clarke.”
The old man laughed and stroked Mila’s head. He put the small golden locket around Mila’s neck and
said, “This is a gift for you.”
Mila lowered her head and looked at the small golden locket hanging around her neck. She smiled
sweetly, revealing her two dimples. She said, “Thank you, Great-grand Elder…”
The old man nodded and praised her. Then, he looked at the third object. He turned his head and said
to Philip, “This one, you take it back for the little one.”
Philip took it from him with a yes and looked at the object. It was a small white jade pendant with two
golden dragons embroidered with gold threads on it. It looked very beautiful and valuable at first
glance.
“Grand Elder, how much is this worth?” Philip asked jokingly.
The old man rolled his eyes at Philip and scolded, “How dare a stinking monkey like you tease me as
soon as you return? Believe it or not, I’ll punish you and make you stand at the door for three days!”
Philip laughed earnestly and kept the item in his pocket.
Then, they exchanged more pleasantries over tea.
Wynn breathed a sigh of relief. Her palms were already full of sweat.
Philip looked at her, wiped her sweat from the corners of her forehead, and said, “Bring Mila to the yard
for a while. I’ll talk to the grand elder.”
Wynn agreed and took Mila to the yard.
Philip watched Wynn’s back as she left before he turned around and walked into the inner courtyard of
the middle hall.
