Chapter 158: Top Pearls

"Laura, a gift for you." Shi Lei handed the things he had just taken out of the kitchen to Laura.

"Hee-hee, stone, is this a Valentine's Day gift for me?" Laura looked at Shi Lei with a smile and asked a little jokingly.

Today is indeed Valentine's Day, and catch up with the sixteenth day of the first month, the lunar calendar is a good day, the solar calendar is very commemorative, do not choose to get married today There are not too many people, today on the road to Mengxian County, you can often meet the wedding team, Shi Lei is very good at giving people to make it empty, so that people can maintain the formation.

"yes, that's a Valentine's Day gift for you." Shi Lei also replied with a smile in the affirmative.

"Uh, what kind of flower is this? Rape flowers? I even gave only such a flower. Laura looked at the flower in her hand with a little crying and laughing, the green stalk below, and a small yellow flower on the top, which clearly looked like a rape flower.

"You guessed it wrong, it's not a rape flower. In fact, this thing comes from one of the most common dishes in the house in winter. Shi Lei raised an eyebrow at Laura.

"You mean...... Cabbage? Laura guessed uncertainly.

"That's right. This is the flower of the cabbage heart. What do you think? Didn't you expect that? Shi Lei raised his eyebrows proudly.

"How is this possible...... Have I ever seen a cabbage heart? Laura asked, a little incredulous.

"That's right. This is what grows in the heart of a 1% cabbage. I put a cabbage heart on the steps of the back balcony, and it sprouted and bloomed again. I knew you hadn't seen it, so I brought you flowers, which are much less common than roses. Shi Lei saw Laura's still somewhat skeptical eyes and explained further.

"Don't believe it, don't believe it, I'm waiting for me to bring you the cabbage heart." After Shi Lei finished speaking, he didn't wait for Laura to answer, and ran out again.

"Oooo This is the flowering cabbage heart. As he spoke, Shi Lei took out the hand behind his back and opened his palm towards Laura.

"Wow." Laura covered her mouth in surprise, "Is this for me?" Laura asked, a little excited and a little uncertain.

"Of course, to my only love, Princess Laura." Shi Lei said sincerely.

At this time, lying in the palm of Shi Lei's hand, what kind of flowering cabbage heart, but a big pearl with gold in white, judging from its bright color and round shape, this is a top pearl. The beautiful golden luster casts a veil of fantasy over it, and the 16mm diameter further increases its value.

"It's beautiful. So beautiful. Laura couldn't help but pick up the beautiful pearl and observe it carefully.

"It's really a rare top-quality pearl, it's so beautiful." Laura said happily. Laura's watch proves once again that women are indeed dragon creatures, and have no resistance to shiny or jeweled things.

"But I didn't think when you ever bought pearls? Did you bring it from Midi? Laura asked with some doubts, after coming back, Shi Lei and Laura are basically inseparable, Shi Lei should not have a chance to buy such a pearl.

"Not really. This pearl is also produced by our family. It's similar to the origin of the cabbage flower just now. Shi Lei raised his eyebrows proudly again.

"You mean the big shell in the big fish tank?" Laura asked, uncertain.

"Haha, you're so smart. It did come out of that pearl bay. Shi Lei explained proudly.

"That pearl oyster was before I went to Midi. I once went to the flower, bird, fish and insect market, and saw that there were bets on pearls, oh, that is, all pearl oysters have one price. People are responsible for opening it, depending on the color of the pearls in the oyster you choose. I bought two pearl oysters and threw them into the big fish tank.

I just remembered it when I came back this time, so I found an opportunity to give it a ride. I didn't expect to find such a superb pearl inside. Shi Lei carefully explained the origin of this pearl.

Of course. The real situation is that when Shi Lei went to the flower, bird, fish and insect market to sell the best ornamental fish that had been transformed, he saw pearl oysters for sale. I didn't hesitate to buy two, and after returning for the transformation, I put them in the bathtub, wanting to give them enough time to let the pearls grow naturally.

Originally, they had pearls, and after Shi Lei's transformation, they could basically ensure that the pearls that grew out were round, almost reaching the level of top pearls, and at worst they would have the level of jewelry-grade pearls. These two pearl oysters can be said to be selected by Shi Lei as test products.

Another pearl oyster has been modified more, that will produce the top black pearls, but its variety, it stands to reason that it cannot produce black pearls, so Shi Lei has to avoid suspicion.

Shi Lei plans to find an opportunity to come out before leaving, and return to the United States with the black pearls in it, and then there will be more room for explanation, either directly selling the pearls, or leaving Laura to make jewelry together.

"Then what jewelry do you think is better for this pearl?" Laura looked at Shi Lei expectantly.

"It's because I don't know what jewelry is right for you, so I gave you this pearl directly. You know, I have a choice problem, and I don't know anything about these things.

However, I am sure that whatever jewelry you make and brings to you, Laura, it will be very beautiful. Who makes you so beautiful, and what jewelry can be worn on you, is their blessing, it is to add luster to them. ”

Shi Lei finally didn't forget to give his girlfriend a sincere compliment, and his praise seems to be quite effective, looking at Laura's smiling face, you know that she is quite useful to Shi Lei.

After a wonderful night, Shi Lei and the others all packed up and began their journey back to Midi. Of course, Shi Lei saw the opportunity, and quietly opened the pearl oyster, and unsurprisingly found the top black pearl in it, and this trip happened to be brought back together.

After entrusting the house to my sister's family to take care of, Shi Lei and they embarked on the journey in a very low-key manner, without alarming many relatives and friends, saving them from knowing that after they knew something, they would have to come to see off or something, and there was no need to mobilize the people.

After a few days of turbulence, Shi Lei and the others once again crossed the ocean and landed at Los Angeles International Airport, and of course it was Gonzalez, a down-to-earth young man, who came to pick them up.

After stuffing the people and luggage into the comfortable Business Star, the car started and headed straight for the ranch. Shi Lei's new life on Midi's side has also begun, and he finally doesn't have to cross half the world to visit his parents.

"Mom and Dad, you guys are here at the ranch for a few days to rest. Then let's go to the Peacock Garden to see the house. I've picked a few homes that I think should be right for you, and I'm now letting Greens follow up and negotiate the price with them. When you go back and choose which house you want, you can pay.

If you want to move in, you should be able to do it in no time. Of course, Laura and I would be happy if you could live on the ranch for a while longer. At the dining table, Shi Lei talked about buying a house for his parents.

"Oh? Are you really planning to buy a house at Peacock Garden? Will it be a little more expensive? My mother asked with some distress.

"Yes, it's not expensive, with Grims and they are responsible for bargaining, the price should be very reasonable. You should just spend money to invest, and as there are more and more Chinese people, the price will definitely get higher and higher. And it's a freehold property, so it's a long-term investment.

And the most important thing is that it's convenient for you to live over there, and you won't feel awkward about your living habits, communication, or anything. Since I've taken you over, of course I have to make your life comfortable.

By the way, if you want to complete any project when you come back, just tell your son, and I will invest in you. Let's drop the air. Shi Lei said deliberately stinky.

"Okay, let's rest for two days and get rid of the jet lag, let's go over and see the house together. As for the project, we have to think about it again, and we have to understand the market. "Dad's words are still categorical and unquestionable.

"By the way, Dad, I also prepared a gift for you, I was going to bring it back to you when I went home for the New Year, but I was a little late in time, so I thought that I would just wait until you came over after the New Year, and send it directly to the new house, and put it in the new house where you live." Shi Lei pretended to be mysterious and said.

"Oh? What a gift? You know it must be suitable? Dad asked curiously.

"Of course, you're sure to like it. But I'll sell it now, and I won't tell you about it. Shi Lei said with a smile, "I'm full." Shi Lei hurriedly ran away, afraid that his father would murder him again.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing, Colin and Emily have invited you to his house tomorrow, which is kind of welcoming you to settle here. I've promised them. Shi Lei ran to his parents after a while and told his parents the content of the phone call he had received before.

"Oh, okay, will their parents be there tomorrow? It's Old Man Huang and them, if they are, we have to do our best to be courteous, after all, we can't be vague when we meet the elders. Dad asked carefully.

"Probably not. Mr. Huang, they usually live in Chinatown. Shi Lei replied affirmatively.

"Oh, if you have a chance in the future, you have to go and meet Old Man Huang specifically." After Shi Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand at Shi Lei, signaling that Shi Lei could dodge aside.

This night, everyone rested early, jet lag is really an uncomfortable thing, coupled with the fatigue of the journey, it is indeed not a pleasure. Fortunately, I took my parents over this time, except for the New Year, when I had to go back, I basically didn't have to go back to both ends.

After thinking about something, Shi Lei also hurriedly went to sleep, there will be a big mess waiting for him on the ranch tomorrow. (To be continued......) R1292
