Chapter 696: The Lei Brothers' Engagement Banquet

Xiao Ping's words surprised Xue Cheng, and for a while he only felt as if he was in his sleep. However, the round and smooth touch of the pearl in the palm of his hand was real, telling Xue Cheng that he was not dreaming at this time.

Xue Cheng finally brought himself back to his senses, and stammered: "This ...... How does this work? Do you know the price of these pearls? Not to mention that I promised to help you process the pearls for free, even if you charge for it, it won't cost so much. ”

What Xue Cheng said was true. Although these pearls are left, it does not mean that their quality is better than other pearls, it is entirely because of the luster of these pearls, and they cannot be perfectly matched with other pearls. Among them, there is a white pearl that is very large, and it is for this reason that Xue Cheng did not string this pearl on the necklace.

In fact, according to Xue Cheng's previous valuation of all the pearls, the price of these pearls given to him by Xiao Ping definitely exceeded 200,000. No matter how exquisite Xue Cheng's craftsmanship is, the reward for stringing four necklaces is not so much.

And these are all superb pearls, Xue Cheng has been making pearl jewelry for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen such a perfect pearl, which is undoubtedly of great significance to him, no wonder Xue Cheng is so excited.

However, Xiao Ping was much calmer than Xue Cheng, and said to him with a smile: "Master Xue, I won't say much nonsense, you are a person who knows the goods, these pearls can be regarded as a good home in your hands." Besides, I may come to trouble you in the future, these should be regarded as deposits for future work, so don't shirk! ”

Since Xiao Ping said so, and Xue Cheng really liked these pearls, he didn't refuse again. Carefully put away the pearl and said: "Since this is the case, I am not hypocritical, and I will come to me if I want to make pearl jewelry in the future." As long as it's still such a good pearl, I can definitely make the best pearl jewelry for you! ”

Xue Cheng dared to say this, naturally he had his confidence. Xiao Ping said goodbye to the master of pearl jewelry with a smile and went back with four pearl necklaces.

On Saturday morning, Xiao Ping flew directly to the capital. The Lei brothers would definitely be very busy today, and Xiao Ping rejected their suggestion to pick up the plane. He just asked about the time and place of the engagement ceremony, and went to the hotel that Lei Yunlong said on time.

But after arriving at the restaurant, Xiao Ping was taken aback.

Originally, in Xiao Ping's opinion, this was the engagement of Lei An's two sons, and one of them was Chen Lao's granddaughter, even if the engagement ceremony was not very big. At least there will be a lot of guests. However, after arriving at the hotel, Xiao Ping realized that there were only ten people in total who attended today's engagement ceremony, and he just filled a table.

This discovery made Xiao Ping surprised and moved, the Lei family obviously regarded him as a real family member, otherwise Xiao Ping would never be invited on such a private occasion.

Xiao Ping arrived relatively early, and only the little nurse and her parents arrived from the two women. The parents of the little nurse are honest middle-aged couples, and they seem a little cramped and uneasy when facing Lei An, the future in-laws who are big officials. In fact, even the little nurse Li Qian seemed a little nervous. She completely lost her usual vigorous energy, but looked like a well-behaved and lovely little daughter-in-law, which made Xiao Ping quite unaccustomed to it.

However, Lei An is very kind to this family, and naturally chatted with his future in-laws. The tension of Li Qian's family was quickly eliminated, and the atmosphere became harmonious.

At six o'clock and less than ten minutes, Chen Feifei's family, the target of Lei Qianlong, also arrived. This kind of engagement ceremony for grandchildren. Naturally, Chen Lao would not attend in person, and it was Chen Feifei and her parents who came.

Chen Feifei's father's name is Chen Rui. It's a very kind middle-aged man.,Also working in the agency.。 Her mother's name is Li Yun. She is a university professor, and at first glance she is a well-informed woman. However, Chen Feifei looks eccentric, her eyes roll wildly when she looks at people, and she is not a rule-following master at first glance.

But it's normal to think about it, if Chen Feifei was a quiet and introverted girl, it would be impossible for her to fall in love with Lei Qianlong, let alone secretly put the health oral liquid on Chen Lao's table.

Because the parents on both sides were there, even the most flying Lei Qianlong was a lot more honest, and sat obediently beside Chen Feifei, just looking for an opportunity to wink at Xiao Ping, which was regarded as a greeting.

Seeing that the guests had arrived, Lei Ann raised his glass and said, "Today is the day of my two sons' engagement, so please have a meal together and meet, and we will be in-laws in the future." Because of my special status, it is not convenient to deal with most of this matter, and I ask for your forbearance if I neglect it, and I drank this glass of wine first to apologize. ”

After Lei An finished speaking, he raised his head and drank the white wine in his glass. Seeing that he said politely, Chen Feifei and Li Qian also accompanied them for a drink, and they all said that they could understand it and that they didn't mind it at all.

After everyone was quieter, Lei An looked at Xiao Ping with a smile and said, "This young man is Xiao Ping, I think everyone knows each other." He and my two sons were good friends and saved my life. So on an occasion like today, other guests can not be invited, but only he must not be omitted. ”

Xiao Ping is the introducer of Lei Yunlong and Li Qian, and he is also Chen Lao's health care doctor, and the two families are naturally no strangers to him, and after listening to Lei An's words, they all smiled and nodded to him.

In this case, of course, Xiao Ping couldn't say nothing, and quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Before I came, I really didn't know that this was a family-style party, and I was really flattered to be so proud of everyone." I won't say much polite words, I'll do it first as respect! ”

Xiao Ping also drank a glass after speaking, and then said to the Lei brothers with a smile: "Two, congratulations!" ”

The opening remarks have been said, and Lei An also smiled and asked everyone not to be polite, since they are all a family, it is better to be casual. Although the Lei family and the Chen family have deep backgrounds, the tutors of both families are very good, and they do not have the slightest contempt for the Li Qian family, who was born in a commoner.

Whether it is Lei An or Chen Rui's family, they treat Li Qian's family with a completely equal attitude. There was no feeling of superiority, nor did they take special care of them, so that Li Qian's family, who were originally cramped and uneasy, quickly relaxed, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.

After three rounds of drinking, several elders gave the engaged juniors a meeting gift.

What Ryan gave to his two future daughters-in-law was a pair of identical jade bracelets, which his deceased wife had brought from her parents' home. When Lei Yunlong handed the jade bracelet to Li Qian, Xiao Ping, who was sitting on the other side of him, clearly felt that the demon refining pot had sensed, which showed that the quality of the jade bracelet was very good.

Chen Rui gave Lei Qianlong a high-end watch, which made Lei Qianlong happy.

Li Qian's father gave Lei Yunlong an old-fashioned Parker gold pen, which was also a trophy captured by his father on the battlefield in Korea. Although the value is not necessarily high, for Lei Yunlong, who is a soldier, the pen that has been on the battlefield undoubtedly has a different meaning.

Lei Qianlong has never been an honest child, after receiving the congratulatory gifts from his elders, he shifted his attention to Xiao Ping, and said to him with a smile: "I said Brother Xiao, today is the big day of my brother's engagement, don't you express it?" (To be continued......)
