Ma Lan opened the door and was about to say a few words outside the door. Suddenly she saw Ye Chen standing outside the door. His stinky face immediately became extremely happy, and he said excitedly: "Oh my good son-in-law! When did you come back?
?Why didn’t I hear you say hello?”
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "I was afraid that you would be worried so I didn't say hello in advance."
Ma Lan said with a smile: "Mom knows, you must want to give Chu Ran a surprise!"
Xiao Churan, who was inside, heard the commotion, and while walking towards the door, he asked: "Mom, is Ye Chen back?"
Ma Lan quickly turned her head and shouted inside: "Daughter, my good son-in-law is back, come here quickly!"
As he said that, he saw a waiter pushing a luggage trolley behind Ye Chen. When he looked at the luggage trolley, there were three suitcases, and he couldn't help but asked excitedly: "Good son-in-law, I remember
You didn’t seem to bring any luggage when you left, why did you come back with so many things? Is it a gift for mom?”
Ye Chen smiled and said: "Most of them are souvenirs given by friends, but I also prepared a small gift for you."
As soon as Ma Lan heard that there was a gift, she couldn't contain her excitement and curiosity.
He knew that it was easy for Ye Chen to make money by showing Feng Shui to others, so he spent money very generously, so he couldn't help but wonder in his mind: "As long as Ye Chen does a little bit, he must be a good guy worth more than 100,000 yuan, right?"
At this time, Ye Chen had already led the waiter into the presidential suite and directed the waiter to unload the luggage aside.
After the waiter carefully moved his luggage, Ye Chen took out a $100 cash note and handed it to him, and the waiter left with a lot of thanks.
At this time, Xiao Churan happened to rush over. When he saw Ye Chen, he said happily: "Hubby, why didn't you say hello when you came back? I can pick you up at the airport!"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "If I had told you in advance, you would have been thinking about me from the time my plane took off to the time it landed, so I simply didn't tell you and planned to give you a surprise."
It could be seen that Xiao Churan was indeed very happy to see Ye Chen back, but she couldn't help but warned: "Husband, rather than the surprise you gave me, I would rather drive to the airport to pick you up in person. See you next time."
You must tell me this kind of thing in advance, okay?"
Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: "No problem, I will definitely do it next time."
With that said, Ye Chen took out the two necklaces he bought on Hong Kong Island from his small suitcase, handed the two jewelry boxes to Xiao Churan and Ma Lan respectively, and said with a smile: "Churan
, Mom, this is a little gift I bought for you in Hong Kong Island, please open it and take a look."
When Ma Lan heard this, she quickly reached out and took it without thinking. Seeing the Bulgari logo on the packaging box, she only realized that this thing must not be cheap, so she said happily: "Oh, it's still mine.
A good son-in-law is the best! The first one he sells is an international brand, either Hermès or Bulgari. Should he switch to Van Cleef & Arpels next time?"
Ye Chen didn't expect that Ma Lan could still sneak in a pun at a time like this.
It seems that Ma Lan really wants a piece of jewelry from Van Cleef & Arpels.
So, he smiled and said: "Since Mom likes Van Cleef & Arpels, I will buy it for you next time I go out to see Feng Shui."
Ma Lan clapped her hands happily, but said very politely: "Oh, my good son-in-law, Mom knows that you are filial, but Mom can't always let you spend so much money. That Van Cleef & Arpels thing is too damn expensive."
! Just their classic four-leaf clover necklace costs more than 400,000 yuan! I’m really crazy about money!”
Xiao Churan, who was on the side, immediately realized his mother's intention and said quickly: "Mom! Can you stop being so vain! Why do you have to let Ye Chen buy you something as expensive as Van Cleef & Arpels..."
Ma Lan said with an aggrieved look: "I didn't say that, I meant that the products of that brand are too expensive and have no cost-effectiveness at all. How could a pragmatic person like me like something with such no cost-effectiveness?"
After saying that, he did not forget to say to Ye Chen: "Good son-in-law, if you have such a heart, my mother will be very satisfied, but you must remember, don't buy things randomly!"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and nodded gently: "Okay, Mom, I understand."
Ma Lan's expression was somewhat melancholy, but she still flipped through the article about Van Cleef & Arpels and quickly focused her attention on the jewelry box in her hand.
As she opened the box, she thought to herself: "I just bought a Bvlgari Emerald Goddess' Dream Necklace a few days ago. I wonder what kind of Bvlgari jewelry Ye Chen gave me this time.
If it’s the Emerald Goddess’ Dream bracelet, it can be paired with my necklace, that would be great.”
Thinking of her in his heart, he opened the box happily.
Immediately afterwards, the thing that caught her eyes stunned her.
"This...this..." Ma Lan looked at the very familiar necklace lying quietly in the jewelry box, and couldn't help but said: "This...isn't this the necklace of the Emerald Goddess' Dream?"
The moment she saw this necklace, Ma Lan felt very disappointed.
After all, she had just bought an identical necklace before coming to the United States, so she naturally felt a little depressed when she received such a gift again.
She is a person who loves vanity and face the most. Although this necklace is very expensive and looks very grand, two identical things can only pretend to be cool after all.
Wear this one today and that one tomorrow. In the eyes of others, you will wear the same pair both days.
But it is impossible to hang two necklaces around your neck at one time, so in her eyes, the necklace Ye Chen gave her was basically nothing.
At this time, Ye Chen had already seen the disappointment that could not be hidden in her eyes, so he pretended to be surprised and asked: "Mom, you know so much about these things, but I didn't remember this name all the way."
live."
Ma Lan laughed and said, "Hey, I'm just doing blind research!"
As she said that, she continued seriously: "Oh, you two don't know that Qian Hongyan is so poor that she can't even eat, and yet she drags me to visit these luxury stores every day. To be honest,
, if it weren’t for her always being in my ears, I wouldn’t be able to remember so many brands.”
Xiao Churan hurriedly asked: "Mom, are you playing with Qian Hongyan again?"
Ma Lan explained: "It's not like we were playing together. The main reason is that after you all left, I lived alone in Tomson Yipin. It was really boring. With her, I can still count as having a companion, and she is now
She is also much more honest than before, so I started to have some interactions with her."
As she said that, she looked at the Goddess' Dream Necklace in her hand again, feeling increasingly melancholy in her heart.
Ye Chen secretly smiled in his heart. It seemed that his move was indeed useful. It could be seen that Ma Lan was already a little bored at this time.
Xiao Churan on the side did not notice anything strange about his mother at this time, but couldn't help but said to Ye Chen: "Husband, thank you for the gift, but you should not buy such expensive luxuries in the future. It is said that this kind of luxury
The value retention rate of high-end jewelry is very poor, which is really a waste.”
When Ye Chen heard the word value retention rate, he suddenly had an idea, so he glanced at Ma Lan and deliberately said: "It seems that this goddess's dream can still retain its value in the second-hand market. If the packaging receipts are complete and the maintenance is done,
It’s new enough, so it should still be available for sale at 20% off.”
As Ye Chen expected, when Ma Lan heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and his expression changed from the depression just now to one of extreme excitement!
Immediately, she suddenly spoke to Xiao Churan and said, "Oh my dear, mom suddenly feels so homesick..."
