Male Wife - Chapter 65
There was also another problem with getting older, bad eyesight.
Noblewoman have someone to serve them, with Ji furen’s position there was no need to trim their own nails, there would be someone who would do it for them, but trimming nails yourself was fun.
One of nail clipper was also round and elegant, the cut surface was made into a curved shape, there was also a light magnifying effect for the person to use to make their eye sight better, how can elderly people like her not like it?
Gem bonsai, not to mention but elderly liked flowers, they like colored decorations and bustling environment—what’s more it has also a built-in mechanism that can change its color.
These three items that Qi Wenhai bought, could be said to be considerate and straightforward, that Ji furen would surely praised.
Xie Tingyue was not surprised at all.
“Well done.” He didn’t minced his words of praise at all to his ‘small’ friend.
“Of course, don’t you know who I am!”
Qi Wenhai spoke with a red-faced, squeezing his fist and was staring straight at the screen, without turning his head back as if urging the person behind the screen.
‘Buy it! Hurry up and bid for it! Get it!
Unfortunately Ji furen only chatted with Qu furen and did not bid.
The hall was filled with sighed.
“What a shame.”
“Still too young for high expectation huh.”
“Looks like its still boss He”
Hearing Ji furen’s praise, He Yuanqi’s heart was also tensed, but fortunately in the end she did not buy it!
His smug self quickly came back, he straightened his waist towards Qi Wenhai and made a nasty posture,
‘That’s all there for you, see how lao zi deal with you’
Qi Wenhai;s eye were green with anger, he grasped Xie Tingyue’s arm tightly: “Brother, this time it’s all up to you. You must win!”
Everyone change what they wanted to auction, and Xie Tingyue also change his, but the time coordination was a little slow, and He Yuanqi’s items came first.
He was more wealthy that Qi Wenhai, directly gave ten set of items!
One of the few were red bead pearl, green bamboo figure, and purple jade incense burner, each one was from the former dynasty treasures.
The items that was individually taken out can be said to be worth a fortune!
The people who saw this scene all gasped in unison.
Qi Wenhai: “Is he crazy? Coming here to show off his wealth?”
“No,” Xie Tingyue shook his head, his eyes were shining, “Time gives value to something that no one would want.”
He Yuanqi’s method was simple and crude, but it can’t be said to be effective.
People need to socialize, and the higher the position, the greater the cost of socializing. Every gift given represents not only the position of other in your heart but also your own financial level and personal taste.
The Qu family and Princess mansion have such a large network of contacts and they need many gifts. Shopping was not necessarily because they like it or need it, but it was because it’s only appropriate to give gifts.
This set of ten things, each with a story, with a historical background, and could definitely be given as a gift.
Having someone willing to help with cubbersome shopping was a big bonus, as long as they have money who wouldn’t be willing to but it?
Sure enough, Qu Furen spoke up: “This is a good set, each piece is good.”
The crowd fell into silence.
Ji furen smiled: “Want to spend some money?”
Qu furen was quiet for a moment, looked at her husband and shook her head: “My husband has change his profession to a businessman, and is no longer an official so I don’t need to take care of many gifts and won’t have much opportunity to use them either.”
At the end, Qu furen did not bid.
Ji furen also thought about it and didn’t bid.
He Yuanqi froze in place.
Qi Wenhai turned and looked at He Yuanqi with his thumbs up slowly turning down and sarcastically motioned: Pei! You are so awesome ah! So that’s how lao zi climb! Yeah I learned a lot!
Hate what you hate, and Qi Wenhai just returned back what he received.
In any case there was still no single item that was bid, the big man behind the event was embarrassed. It was too humiliating!
The crowd was so quiet not until Xie Tingyue’s fabric was brought out.
Standing on the center of the stage, who was responsible for heating up the audience on bidding and introduced the items was drenched with sweat and can do nothing but squeeze out a smile, dutifully introducing the item.
“This fabric was made out from Lan Yingcao, it’s cloth is extremely thick yet very light as well and it’s also permeable, smooth and soft quality…”
Everyone was shocked, what the hell was this? A piece of fabric? No matter how soft and smooth, it’s just nothing but a piece of cloth it’s not even made into a clothes.
And the color, isn’t it too light? No matter how light and transparent it was, it’s just too plain It’s not even suitable for old women, not to mention for Ji furen and Qu furen! What’s the point if bringing it up there? You don’t think it’s not embarrassing enough?
