Chapter 1053 Prepared gifts

On July 2, Chen Kangjie slept until almost noon before getting up. At this time, the sky was already cloudy and rainy, and the window was full of vitality.

He returned to his residence last night when it was almost dawn. Thousands of soldiers were divided into different batches and slowly drove into Hong Kong in the rain. Chen Kangjie and tens of thousands of citizens did not leave until the last batch was completed.

In the rain, people were welcoming each other and their blood was boiling. Chen Kangjie was not a soldier, but he was excited to feel the pride of being a soldier. People hysterically shouted various welcome slogans in Cantonese. Even if the welcome banner was already flowing down by the rain, people still held it. They wanted these young soldiers and men to feel their enthusiasm.

Turn on the TV, the news programs inside almost all made the Hong Kong return ceremony take up the headlines and the largest space. While reporting the truthfully, various media will make some of their own comments.

After a few simple glances, Chen Kangjie grasped the sadness of Western society. They almost all skipped the scene where citizens welcomed the troops stationed in Hong Kong. The way of thinking of the comments was skepticism. Many mainstream Western media expressed doubts about the future of Hong Kong, thinking that it was difficult for a socialist country to manage a capitalist free city well.

Chen Kangjie completely sneered at this argument, saying that the grapes are sour when they cannot eat them.

Chen Kangjie turned off the TV with a "slap", put on his clothes and went downstairs for lunch. He rushed back to the mainland in the afternoon and did not participate in the grand float parade and cultural performances in Hong Kong.

In addition to He Wanrong, Ouyang Zhenhua and Tan Meiyun and Chen Yufen will not be absent from the wedding of Chen Yufen.

Chen Kangjie came downstairs, Ouyang Zhenhua and his wife and He Wanrong were already waiting in the living room. There was a stack of newspapers on the sofa next to Ouyang Zhenhua. He was flipping through a copy of "Xinbao".

"I came back so late last night and was still so rainy. What if I caught a cold?" He Wanrong turned her head and said coquettishly to Chen Kangjie who was walking down the stairs.

When Chen Kangjie came back in the early morning, He Wanrong could no longer be trapped and she went to bed first. This morning she learned that Chen Kangjie not only came back late, but also was soaked all over. Just before Chen Kangjie got up, Ouyang Zhenhua complained when he entered the door, as if Chen Kangjie was hurt by him.

The rain fell quite a lot last night, and the effect of the raincoat was weakened a lot. Moreover, Chen Kangjie was exposed to his eyebrows while blocking his eyebrows and lifted it up several times, which caused almost all the clothes on his body to be wet.

"How could it be? I'm in good health. Don't forget that I still swim in the swimming pool on rainy days. How can I catch a cold so easily? Haha," Chen Kangjie showed a flattering smile in his explanation.

"Xiaojie, fortunately, you got up. I have been complained twice, which made me pretend to read the newspaper to avoid the limelight." Ouyang Zhenhua put down the newspaper and showed a laughing and crying expression.

"You said that Xiaojie is younger than you, and you won't take care of him." As soon as he spoke, Tan Meiyun immediately scolded him, which made Ouyang Zhenhua's smile that had just appeared quickly with a very strange expression.

Chen Kangjie knew that everyone was concerned about him, but he was not easy to help him now. He picked up the Hong Kong local newspapers and flipped them all around, and at the same time he also had the intention of avoiding criticism.

After returning, Hong Kong's newspaper attitude has also changed a lot. All front pages are news about returning, and the comments on the second and third pages are almost all positive responses. If it is before the return, it will be difficult to be so consistent.

"By the way, Brother Qiang, have you prepared the things you prepared for me?" Just as Ouyang Zhenhua was at a loss, Chen Kangjie suddenly put down the newspaper and asked Ouyang Zhenhua.

"Of course, how could I go on a business trip for such a big thing?" After saying that, Ouyang Zhenhua took out a small emerald green box from under the coffee table in front of him.

Chen Kangjie took the box and opened it. He saw that there was a jade hairpin inside. The hairpin was a warm and transparent jade stick. At the top was a butterfly made of gold pieces and gems such as tortoiseshell agate. It was very exquisite and lifelike, and the whole workmanship was flawless.

"Xiaojie, this is a Ming Dynasty object, called Caidie Jade Hairpin. It is said to be a palace object in the Wanli Dynasty. I have consulted with cultural relics identification experts to identify it. It is true. It is just that it is unknown whether it was used by the princess or the imperial concubine." When Chen Kangjie was playing with it, Ouyang Zhenhua explained from the side.

This thing is the wedding gift Chen Kangjie was preparing to give to his second sister. He didn't have time to go to Taobao and had already entrusted this matter to Ouyang Zhenhua when he was in the United States.

"Wow, it's really beautiful, take me, take a look." He Wanrong looked at this exquisite ornament with bright eyes and sighed.

Chen Kangjie smiled and handed the jade hairpin to He Wanrong, making fun of it, "Sister Wanrong, when you get married, I will give you a copy of this."

"It's so exquisite, it's still a thing in the palace of the Ming Dynasty. How much does it cost?" He Wanrong stared at the colorful butterfly jade hairpin in her hand. She did not reply to Chen Kangjie's words, but asked Ouyang Zhenhua.

"Three million Hong Kong dollars were collected from an antique collector. At first he didn't plan to sell it, but I saw that it was indeed exquisite and suitable for women, so he increased the price by three times, so he was willing to take action. He bought it from Europe and spent 1 million Hong Kong dollars," Ouyang Zhenhua replied in detail.

"Many of the treasures left by our ancestors are abroad. In the late Qing Dynasty when the Opium War began, many of our national treasures were looted, especially during the tragedy of the Eight-Nation Alliance." Chen Kangjie smiled faintly and sighed.

"We have taken back the brightest one of all national treasures," Tan Meiyun continued Chen Kangjie's words and said in a daze.

The three of them stared at him.

"Isn't Hong Kong the same?" Tan Meiyun was stared at by the three of them and blurted out.

The three of them immediately felt like they had heard a cold joke.

"Sister Meiyun's words are reasonable, hehe, it's the Pearl of the East," He Wanrong was amused and praised.

"Brother Ouyang, what gift are you and Sister Meiyun preparing?" After laughing, Chen Kangjie asked Ouyang Zhenhua.

"I'm very cheesy and have prepared a small golden plaque." Although Ouyang Zhenhua said cheesy, he couldn't see any shame and embarrassment on his face.

"Little golden plaque, I really hate the vulgarity. Do you have it? Take it out and take it out and take a look." He Wanrong put the jade hairpin in the box and returned it to Chen Kangjie, and asked Ouyang Zhenhua curiously.

"Wanrong, here is me," Tan Meiyun smiled, and then took out a rectangular box as big as a shirt from the black leather bag beside her. There was a dragon and a phoenix on the outer shell of the box, which was golden.

He Wanrong took the box and took off the lid. There was really a small gold plaque inside, shining brightly. In the middle, it used jade materials to form four large characters, which was a happy and happy life.

He Wanrong took out the plaque and rubbed it, looked east and west.

"It looks not light," Chen Kangjie commented from the side.

"Two kilograms of pure gold, jade is Hotan mutton fat white jade," Ouyang Zhenhua's answer was quite simple.

"The things are good, but unfortunately they are really vulgar. Yufen is also a big boss now. She is not short of money. You just give gold. This seems,,,,,,." He Wanrong said with her eyes wide open.

"Sister Wanrong, maybe you were wrong. I guess, this idea was not made by Brother Ouyang, and it was nineteen. Ninety-one was derived from Sister Meiyun's idea," Chen Kangjie said with his legs raised and unfathomable.

"Xiaojie, how did you know that this would be what I suggested?" Tan Meiyun blurted out in surprise.

Tan Meiyun's expression already shows that Chen Kangjie guessed correctly. He heard that it was Tan Meiyun's idea, and He Wanrong no longer thought the gift was vulgar. She now wants to know why Chen Kangjie said she was wrong.

"Haha, because Brother Ouyang may not be so careful. To be honest, this plaque is so big and the best. If you really make a big piece, it will be really tacky. Just this size, plus the meaning it contains, is just right, and can be regarded as a work of art," Chen Kangjie explained.

"What does it mean?" He Wanrong asked anxiously.

"Because Brother Ouyang and Sister Meiyun want to give away eight words,,,,,." At this point, Chen Kangjie deliberately paused for a moment, as if he had to ask "what eight words?", then he continued in a whisper, "We can see the four words of "Golden and Jade Families, a hundred years of marriage, and a hundred years of marriage, but we can't see the eight words of "Golden and Jade Families, and we can only understand them, haha."

"Xiaojie, you are really smart, you can tell at a glance." Ouyang Zhenhua gave Chen Kangjie a thumbs up.

"A good marriage of gold and jade,,,,,,,,,, is a good marriage of gold and jade,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"Wanrong, what did you bring this time?" After seeing all the gifts on both sides, Tan Meiyun also wanted to see He Wanrong's preparations.

"What I prepared was a wedding dress, which Yufen and I communicated on the phone. She said she wanted a white wedding dress, so I asked the designer to design one, and Yufen asked me to be a stand-in model for him," said He Wanrong.

"Haha, with your eyes, this dress is absolutely beautiful, and you are the stand-in model," Chen Kangjie praised.

"Of course, but I won't show it to you now. After Yufen put it on on her wedding day, you will be clear at a glance." In order to keep it confidential, He Wanrong does not plan to take out the gift now.

Besides, it’s useless to take it out. The clothes must be worn on your body to see beauty and ugliness. Just look at it like this, you can’t see the essence. Moreover, different people have different temperaments, and the feeling of wearing the same clothing will be very different.
