Meng Chuyuan was a recognized abandoned wife in the wealthy circles. Her husband was rarely home, and her brother-in-law and mother-in-law were both notoriously bad-tempered.
Everyone laughed...
Chapter 160: Make an offer
After Lu Qianling had enough money, she became generous with her money. She bought a cervical massager and tested it herself. The effect was good and it was easy to operate, so she bought it immediately.
"This massager is very comfortable to use. Grandma will definitely like it." Lu Qianling rubbed her little hands, already looking forward to her grandma's happy look when she received the gift.
Seeing that she had chosen the right gift, Meng Chuyuan said with admiration, "You are quite sensible."
Think about it, some time ago, Lu Qianling had to find someone to bargain with her when buying a steam eye mask, but now when it comes to buying things for the elders, she can really do it without blinking an eye.
"That's a must. She's my grandmother."
Perhaps because they are of different generations, every time Lu Qianling and the others go back to visit grandma, they are always treated like emperors. There are all kinds of delicious food and fun things, and they can bring back a lot of bags when they leave grandma.
Nowadays they are busy with their studies and careers, and can only eat together at home during festivals and holidays.
Lu Qianling raised her head and looked at her curiously: "Is there anything you want to buy?"
Meng Chuyuan glanced around and didn't seem to see anything of interest.
"Let's take another look," she said.
After she accompanied Lu Qianling to buy the massager, she wandered around the neighborhood and found that the things sold there were basically not suitable for the elderly, and they would not be able to use them even if they bought them.
Lu Qianling felt like she had reached the end of her stroll. She slowly stopped, an idea flashing in her mind as she turned to Meng Chuyuan and said, "There's another floor downstairs. Do you want to check it out? This little world of a rich woman, I think you'll definitely like it."
Meng Chuyuan was a little surprised when he heard this: "A rich woman's little world?"
"Yeah, it's not a place I can afford to visit anyway, but I thought you might like it."
There just happened to be a lot of shops downstairs with a wide variety of gold jewelry, jade bracelets, and all kinds of other things. The transparent glass windows and the cold white lights were so dazzling.
No one passing by here could ignore the light shining from the gold. When Meng Chuyuan came down, he went in to take a look.
She entered a jade shop and looked at the various bracelets and pendants displayed on the counter. The quality seemed to be quite good.
It was the first time that Lu Qianling followed Meng Chuyuan to visit such a store. Her eyes were filled with admiration. She caught a glimpse of a jade rabbit with fine workmanship. She carefully reached out her finger and touched the rabbit's head.
"This is a real jade rabbit!" Lu Qianling couldn't help but exclaim.
A rabbit carved from jade.
Seeing Lu Qianling staring at the little jade rabbit with a fierce look in her eyes, the boss reminded her, "That's my treasure, it's not for sale."
Originally, Meng Chuyuan didn't care much about the rabbit, but after hearing what her boss said, she suddenly became interested in the "Jade Rabbit".
Meng Chuyuan leaned in closer to take a closer look. The rabbit was carved to look lifelike, and the jade had been polished, with a delicate and smooth surface.
"This is natural Hetian jade."
The boss was so shocked when he heard Meng Chuyuan's accurate answer, "What a connoisseur! She can tell at a glance."
I didn't expect that someone so young could have such a keen eye that he could even identify Hetian jade.
Meng Chuyuan saw that the workmanship was good, and his eyes were filled with satisfaction. He said calmly, "Such a large piece of Hetian jade is quite rare and rarely seen on the market."
The boss smiled happily, even a little proudly: "That's why it can become the treasure of my store."
Before the boss could even retract his smile, he heard Meng Chuyuan's shocking words: "Name a price, I'll buy it."
Meng Chuyuan really thought that this piece of jade was good and the carving was very careful. It was suitable to buy it back and give it to Grandma Lu to display at home.
The boss shook his head and refused to let go: "This is my treasure, I won't sell it for any money."
"I don't understand the market either. Please open it casually. I'm serious."
Lu Qianling, who seemed to be enjoying the fun, whispered, "Boss, she's not short of money. She can easily take over your store."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Qianling wanted to see how much money Meng Chuyuan could come up with to get this rabbit.
As Lu Qingye's woman, the thing she has the most is money.
The boss originally insisted on his own ideas and had no intention of selling the store's treasure. However, when he saw the valuable big diamond ring on Meng Chuyuan's hand, he was actually a little shaken.
Business has not been good in the past two years, and opening a store in this location requires nearly ten thousand yuan in rent. Life requires money everywhere. If this can be sold at a satisfactory price, it can also alleviate the urgent need.
The boss hesitated for a long time, then asked tentatively, "How much can I charge?"
"Can."
"Seven million, then."
When Lu Qianling heard this, she immediately lost her composure and stood up to refute the boss: "Are you trying to rob me? This thing costs seven million?"
The rabbit was slightly larger than an adult's fist and should have weighed about one kilogram. Meng Chuyuan thought the price was quite reasonable.
Just when the boss was getting a little angry and was about to tell them that he would not sell it, he suddenly heard a cold and calm voice: "I want the seven million."
Finally, Meng Chuyuan also bought a pair of jade bracelets and took the little jade rabbit back with him.
"Seven million, you're going to buy it just like that? At least try to bargain a little, maybe you can get a lower price."
On the way back, Lu Qianling held the little rabbit she bought in her hands. When she thought about how much it cost seven million, her heart felt like it was bleeding.
Lu Qianling kept on babbling, "If it were me, I would have turned around and left. Why would I buy such a broken stone with seven million dollars?
Meng Chuyuan turned his head to look at her and corrected her: "This is not a broken stone."
"In my eyes, it's no different from a stone, just prettier than an ordinary stone..." Lu Qianling suddenly looked towards Meng Chuyuan and couldn't help scolding her: "You're such a spendthrift! If you keep going like this, my eldest brother will become your free laborer."
She drove seriously and half-jokingly said, "Your elder brother only knows how to make money but not how to spend it. I'm just trying to balance it out for him."
Meng Chuyuan bought the jade because he thought it was worth the price, otherwise he would not have agreed to it so immediately.
An hour later, the two returned to the Lu residence and saw Lu Jinsen and his grandmother sitting in the living room chatting as soon as they entered.
"Grandma." Lu Qianling ran over and gave her grandma a hug.
Grandma Lu smiled and patted her back, saying lovingly, "Okay, okay, I can't breathe because of you pressing on me."
Lu Qianling waited until she reacted before slowly letting go of her grandmother.
Meng Chuyuan parked the car in the garage, and when he got out, he found that Lu Qianling had already run away.
She walked slowly towards the villa and entered the hall. She just happened to see Grandma Lu. She walked over calmly and called softly, "Grandma, good evening."
