Chapter 153: Sister-in-law Is So Rich (2) (1/2)
Chen Jin quickly brought the money over. Then he brought over many small boxes and laid them open on the table. The boxes glowed with the radiance of the jewels.
It was mostly gems and precious stones, and also some diamond jewelry.
Now, there were stringent checks on gems and precious stones and the banks would not take them. If they were found in anyone’s possession, it would spell disaster. So the older folks with these good things all preferred to exchange their gems for other things. But they kept as much hard currency, like gold, as possible.
It was the same for diamond jewelry. The moment someone saw them, they would think of the capitalists and hedonists from the past!
Mo Beihan looked at Gu Qingyao. “You choose. Pick anything you like!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Mo Beihan smiled when he saw that Gu Qingyao did not reply. “Of course I need a woman’s eye to select jewelry. The ones I select won’t look nice.”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
I don’t believe you! You h!
But Gu Qingyao did not argue with him. This was her man. Everything he had would one day belong to her too.
But Gu Qingyao was inwardly a little smug. She began her selection.
She still liked jade bangles best.
She chose twelve of them at one go. They were all an intense green, with flower-like inclusions below their glass-like surfaces. Two of them were especially beautiful, with a slight yellowish tinge.
Then she chose three Buddha pendants, two diamond necklaces, and four pairs of diamond bracelets.
The bracelets were beautiful. They were slender and shiny. By themselves, each was too thin, but they looked especially nice when worn together.
Six slender ones formed a bracelet, and one pair consisted of twelve of them. They would look especially nice when worn by someone with fair wrists.
