"Wow! What a beautiful jade bracelet! It's made of Madam Murong's favorite purple jade!" Concubine Li said in admiration, but a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

Then, as if she had discovered something, she asked in confusion, "Why does this purple jade look so uneven, and why are these scratches dark gray? Also, why are the colors of this purple jade so different shades?"

The questions raised by Concubine Li are also the questions that others want to ask.

Wang Wen is a straightforward person who doesn't beat around the bush. When she saw the bracelet in the box, she couldn't help but sarcastically say, "Do I even need to ask? It must be because this purple jade is cheap, not a good quality item!"

"Shouldn't it be?" Concubine Li looked unconvinced.

"What should or shouldn't be done?" Wang Wen said disdainfully. "Many nouveau riche don't understand the quality of jade. They think expensive jade is good. So it's understandable that Miss Gong doesn't know the value of jade and buys jade of poor quality at a high price."

"That's the same principle."

Concubine Li nodded in sudden realization, looked at Gong Yu with regret, and comforted her, "Miss Gong, don't be discouraged. It's not uncommon to buy inferior jade. After all, jade has a profound history and requires a deep cultural background. Only through long-term cultivation can one slowly master the skills of distinguishing jade."

"You're so young, there's no need to rush to mature!"

Concubine Li's speech seemed to be to comfort Gong Yu, but her words were full of sarcasm, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable.

What made people even more uncomfortable was that after comforting Gong Yu, she looked at Su Qing with a smile and apologized for Gong Yu, seeming to be very reasonable and considerate.

"Madam Murong, although Miss Gong is Director Luo's apprentice and owns an antique shop, there is still a certain difference between antiques and jade. It's not surprising that Miss Gong bought the wrong one!"

"Mrs. Murong is so understanding, and the Murong family is so wealthy, so the price of the gift doesn't matter. As long as Miss Gong's intention is there, that's all that matters."

After Concubine Li finished speaking, she looked in Murong Tianyi's direction very obediently, hoping to see admiration in Murong Tianyi's eyes.

But as soon as she met Murong Tianyi's eyes, a bad premonition arose in her heart.

Why did she feel that Murong Tianyi looked at her with pity and ridicule?

Shouldn't Gong Yu be the one who should be ridiculed?

"Aunt Murong, this pair of purple jade bracelets are not made of modern jade, but ancient jade."

Just when Murong Tianyi was about to speak for Gong Yu, Mu Nian spoke first.

After he finished speaking, he paused for a few seconds, waiting for everyone to digest the information, before continuing, "Ancient jade is a general term for beautiful stones from ancient times. It has a fine texture, moist color, a bright and smooth appearance, and it doesn't freeze your hands in winter and doesn't irritate your hands in summer."

"Ancient jade is generally jade artifacts from before the Han Dynasty, so its value is very high whether it is worn or collected."

"Although the pair of ancient jade bracelets Gong Yu gave me are not the finest royal purple, they are also very rare red and purple jadeite, and they are well preserved and not broken."

"In ancient times, bracelets were always made in pairs, which came from the belief that good things come in pairs. But as ancient jade has been passed down to this day, it is very difficult to find pairs of jade bracelets."

"This pair of jade bracelets is not only ancient jade, but also a pair, which is really precious."

Mu Nian's introduction made everyone else open their mouths in surprise.
