Chapter 2051: Trip to the Southwest 1
Hearing that Father Lu seemed to have a plan, Cheng Baoguo suddenly turned his head to look at him.
"Second brother, what are you planning?"
Father Lu held the jewelry box he bought and squinted his eyes, "Although I have some plans, I haven't decided yet. I'll go home and discuss it with Ajiang Xiaoxue first."
Cheng Baoguo said, "Oh," and breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he touched his nose. These old brothers were all unwilling to admit that they were old. He felt very uncomfortable retiring early to enjoy the family happiness.
"Second brother, if you really want to do something, don't forget me, your brother."
Father Lu laughed when he heard this, "Don't worry, my eldest brother is in a high position and can't get involved. I will definitely pull you in. We brothers are united and can break metal with our strength!"
When he returned home while talking and laughing, he found that there was no one else at home except Fubao, who was guarding the trash can and blowing his nose with toilet paper.
"Where is your third grandmother?" Cheng Baoguo asked.
Fubao turned his head with a red nose to look at his two grandfathers, and stood up while answering: "Grandma organized a tea party and invited many old acquaintances. She called the third grandmother to go, and the grandmother of the Ye family was also there."
Cheng Baoguo and Wang Cuilan are retired, but they were also powerful during the Anti-Japanese War. Many of them are old acquaintances and old comrades. After living in Lu's house, I often meet them.
This time, Wang Xinsheng's family held a tea party. Guo Yan also invited Fubao, but Fubao had a serious cold and felt it was not decent, so he did not go.
The elders' tea party is often also an occasion for the younger generation to make connections. Being able to accompany the elders to such an occasion and show up in front of the big shots is an opportunity that many people are eager to have.
Lu's father didn't care after hearing this. Anyway, their children are the least lacking in such opportunities.
Cheng Baoguo didn't care even more, "Come and see the dowry your grandfather bought for you. If you go, you won't be able to see it earlier."
"Third Grandpa, I'm still young, what dowry are you talking about!" Fubao was a little embarrassed.
Cheng Baoguo was rough by nature, and he snatched the jewelry box from Lu's father's hand, opened it, and took it to the little girl to show it.
"Look, isn't it beautiful?"
For export, the jewelry box was made very exquisite and high-end, with black velvet inside, which made the jade embedded in the gap and hanging on the plastic hook more bright and full of water.
Fubao suddenly widened her eyes, watery, and the light was not inferior to the light of jade.
"It's jade, and it's a set."
In her mother's words, this kind of high-end jade with the same material and a set is hard to come by.
Feng Qingxue also told her that in the past, mining technology was backward and only the surface mineral layer could be excavated. In fact, most of the jadeite circulated in the Qing Palace was coarse, and most of them were selected for their color. The jadeite with old texture, fine meat and rich water head was very rare, and all of them were priceless.
This set of jadeite is the latter, probably a modern work. Although it did not reach the best glass type, it is not the top-grade imperial green that Feng Qingxue said, but it is also crystal clear like ice with fluorescence, delicate and transparent texture, bright and slightly sweet color, almost no flaws, and still beautiful.
Fubao was born to love beauty, and immediately fell in love with this set of jadeite, "It's so beautiful, did grandpa buy it for me?"
Father Lu smiled and said, "Yes, I think this color is sweeter, more suitable for a little girl than the bracelet on your hand."
Feng Qingxue loves jadeite, and the Lu family learned a lot about the grading of jadeite from her. Although the imperial green is a top-grade, the color is deep and rich, and it looks better on older people.
