Jiang Mingxin was slightly surprised: "You're getting married and giving me a gift?"
"This is Du Cheng's gift to you. He said he didn't have much money when you and Xing Haodong got married, so he only gave you a gift of cash. He had a hard time getting this thing, and he said you would definitely like it."
Judging from Kong Xintang's tone, she didn't seem to have seen it either.
Jiang Mingxin quickly took it, opened the box and took a look. He felt that the spring scenery in the garden jumped out.
This gem-studded tourmaline hairpin is a genuine Qing Dynasty palace item and is said to have been worn by Empress Dowager Cixi.
The petals made of pink tourmaline are delicate and lively, the emerald green jade is made into butterfly wings, and pearls as big as rice grains are inlaid into butterfly antennae. It looks lifelike no matter you look at it from near or far.
Jiang Mingxin hadn't seen such an exquisite hairpin for a long time.
"Oh my goodness, isn't this something from the collection of the Palace Museum?"
Kong Xintang patted her hands and said, "Don't be nervous. Du Cheng bought this thing from a noble lady. Her original surname was Ulanara, but now her surname is Na."
Jiang Mingxin then accepted the item with confidence, and at the same time, she took out a brocade box from her bag and handed it to her, "This is the makeup I gave you, do you like it?"
Now it was Kong Xintang's turn to be surprised, "Didn't you and Xing Haodong already give it to me? Wasn't that the car?"
Last month, Xing Haodong got an Audi and gave it to Kong Xintang, and Kong Xintang felt that this was enough.
Jiang Mingxin curled her lips and said, "Of course, to add makeup, we have to use things that women use. I found this with great difficulty. Hurry and take it!"
Kong Xintang opened the brocade box with a smile. Inside were a string of peach-pink tourmaline jade pendants and a pair of gold-inlaid pearl and jade earrings, which seemed to be from the same series as the tourmaline hairpin that Jiang Mingxin had just received.
The tourmaline jade pendant is carved from pink tourmaline in the shape of a lucky melon, with vines carefully carved around the melon, symbolizing fertility and good fortune, making it perfect for her to wear on her wedding day.
The earrings are made of jade butterflies inlaid on a gold base, with a string of pearls hanging from the bottom and an eggplant-shaped jade pendant at the end.
"What a coincidence! I'll wear this pair of earrings when I give a toast later. You can also put your hair in a bun and wear this hairpin."
They have the same aesthetic taste, and when they stand together after dressing up, they complement each other and reflect each other.
Anyone who sees them will praise them, “What a pair of bright and charming sisters!”
