Chapter 155: Lady Porcelain Puppet

Yuan Xiumei accepted the gift, Su Lei happily unpacked the package and tinkered, Xiaobao was a child after all, and his curiosity was also heavy, so he came up to see Su Lei's movements.

Meng Yufei looked at Su Lei, thinking that when he went to Beijing, he would find Li Zhen to get a few CD records, most of the current songs are cassette, and CD records will slowly become popular this year, and there is a CD player at home, but there is no CD record and I can't listen to it!

"By the way, these are a few CDs, I don't know what you like, my sister-in-law said to pick a few, if you have a special favorite, you can also tell me, let her send it from Beijing!" Xiao Jingjing took out a few more CD cases from her bag and handed them to Meng Yufei.

The Xiao family really worked hard to give gifts, and even the CD record was prepared, Meng Yufei silently clicked 32 likes in her heart, and after thanking Xiao Jingjing, Meng Yufei took the record and watched it.

Zhou Huajian's "Let Me Be Happy and Let Me Worry", Wu Bai's "The End of Love", Huang Pinyuan's "Ruthless", Faye Wong's "Only Love Strangers", "Red Beans", and Na Ying's "Conquest", a total of 6 records, there are singles and albums, but Meng Yufei feels that there are no records suitable for Su Lei to listen to, they are all songs for adults to listen to, wait for Du Yuexin to help, see if you can let Uncle Du buy the goods, give Su Lei a few CDs to learn English!

Meng Yufei handed one of Faye Wong's CDs to Su Lei, asked him to listen to it himself, put the remaining CDs on the coffee table, and thanked Xiao Jingjing again, these CDs are all genuine, and the Xiao family is really attentive.

"Xiaobao. Don't you still have a gift for your sister? Hurry up! Xiao Jingjing waved her hand and beckoned Xiaobao, who was fiddling with the CD player with Su Lei, to come over.

"Oh, by the way, sister, I have a gift for you too." Xiaobao listened to Xiao Jingjing's words, quickly put down the headphones in his hand, ran to Xiao Jingjing, rummaged through his mother's backpack, and then took out a rectangular cardboard box slightly larger than a pencil case, handed it to Meng Yufei and said, "Sister." This is my gift. Guess what's good? ”

Meng Yufei touched Xiaobao's head and said, "Thank you, Xiaobao!" Then sister, take a look at the outer packaging and guess again, okay? ”

Some curious about what Xiaobao's gift was, Meng Yufei took the box, only to see that it was full of English letters, and the most conspicuous was the ROYALDOULTON logo. There is also an English lion logo with a crown above the letters. Meng Yufei felt that this sign was somewhat familiar. Read it: "RoyalDoulton! Royal Dalton? ”

Meng Yufei raised her head in surprise and glanced at Xiao Jingjing, who smiled and nodded. So Meng Yufei asked Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, my sister guessed, is it a plate or bowl inside?" ”

"Sister, you guessed wrong, I won't send you such a stingy thing! This is pretty, can you open it and see if you like it? Hearing Meng Yufei's gift, Xiaobao shook his head proudly and urged Meng Yufei to open the box quickly and check.

Meng Yufei smiled, if the gift inside is really a plate or bowl, just rush the Royal Dalton brand, this gift will not be stingy.

The Royal Dalton brand is the largest bone china export manufacturer in the United Kingdom, founded in the 18th century, Meng Yufei remembers that the founder Dalton was once awarded the knighthood by Queen Victoria, and in the early 19th century was authorized by Edward VII, so that Dalton became the royal tableware manufacturer, and since then it has the right to use the word Royal on behalf of the royal family, and the brand name Royal Doulton also added a special English lion logo with a crown, and this logo has been used to this day.

And Meng Yufei was able to learn so many things about Dalton, or thanks to the experience of his previous life, Meng Yufei once had a customer, very fond of collecting porcelain, during the period when Meng Yufei designed a new home for him, and Meng Yufei talked a lot about porcelain, and Meng Yufei visited the customer's collection, including the porcelain works of Royal Dalton.

In Xiaobao's expectant eyes, Meng Yufei opened the carton, took away the layer of protective foam on it, and carefully took out the porcelain inside, Meng Yufei was a little stunned when she took it, took out the thing and removed the white film that wrapped the porcelain, and the porcelain inside revealed its true appearance, which was a porcelain puppet.

Meng Yufei visually inspected it, the height of the doll is about 20 centimeters, the prototype is a standard foreign beauty, with long wavy curly hair in the color of the golden emperor, wearing a purple mopping long dress with white gauze, the doll is holding the bow ribbon around the waist in his hand, and the other hand is gently holding the skirt, the facial expression of the character is vivid, it is an elegant and intellectual beauty porcelain doll, and Meng Yufei just knows that the name of this porcelain doll is called Lady Porcelain Doll, which is a HN series.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the Royal Dalton began to produce the Lady porcelain figurines HN series, which were soon accepted by the market and were recognized as highly collectible porcelain works in the early stages of production, and for a hundred years after that, the Royal Dalton has been a favorite of the British high society, especially the porcelain dolls of the Royal Dalton, which have been the first choice of celebrities to give to their beloved daughters.

And due to the limited production of each product and the high price, owning a porcelain doll of Royal Dalton has become the dream of every little European girl.

Meng Yufei carefully flipped and saw the bottom of the porcelain doll, with the logo of Royal Dalton, an English lion with a crown, judging from the exquisite appearance of this porcelain doll, Meng Yufei can be sure that this is definitely a real boutique.

"Uh, Xiaobao, is this really for me?" Meng Yufei was a little depressed, the Xiao family is really not bad for money, and a gift from a child is so expensive, how can she receive it? Although she doesn't know the specific price of this porcelain puppet, Meng Yufei knows that it is estimated that it will be at least 2,000 yuan.

"What's wrong? Sister, don't you like it? Xiaobao asked a little nervously.

"I like it, it's just that this is also very expensive, my sister has already received a gift from your mother, can you keep this?" Looking at Xiaobao's clear eyes, how could Meng Yufei say that she didn't like it? To be honest, Meng Yufei is not a little girl, and she will not take owning a porcelain doll as her dream like a little European girl, but she still likes this porcelain doll, and it looks good as a decoration at home.

"I'm not a girl, what do you want to do with this? My sister has a few more! Xiaobao waved his hand like a little adult, and when he spoke, he realized that he seemed to have missed his mouth, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his little hand.

Meng Yufei was stunned, this gift couldn't have been snatched by Xiaobao, right? (To be continued......)
