Looking at the gift box handed over, Joziah Sham and his wife showed surprise.
Phoebe smiled so hard that she almost couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear. She quickly took the gift box and opened it. It was an antique celestial vase with clear flowers and dragon patterns.
Although Phoebe didn't know much about goods, she still knew how valuable antiques were and asked quickly:
"Baraz, what dynasty is this bottle from and how much is it worth?"
Baraz Chau waved his hand modestly:
"I bought this from an antique master. It is said to be a treasure from the Ming Dynasty and is worth more than one million."
"If it wasn't for my sake, that master would never give up."
Phoebe was shocked and her hands were shaking:
"Just such a small bottle, worth more than a million?"
"That's for sure. This is an antique from hundreds of years ago. It doesn't matter whether it's expensive or not. What's important is that you two like it."
Baraz Chau said with a smile.
These words made Phoebe feel extremely comfortable. She smiled so much that there were a few crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. She said to Joziah Sham:
"Husband, Baraz is a sensible kid. He knows you like antiques and spent a lot of money to buy such an expensive gift."
"You can't live up to your child's kindness."
Joziah Sham smiled and nodded. He felt that something was wrong with this Ming Qinghua, but he couldn't explain it for the moment.
In this situation, he couldn't open up the matter and asked questions, so he had to suppress what was wrong in his heart.
Baraz Chau breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had fooled Joziah Sham and his wife. Although his family was rich, they couldn't spend more than one million to buy a broken bottle.
He found this bottle at a used goods market and it cost him just over a thousand. He checked it carefully and found no major problems. It was a suitable gift for him.
He was a little complacent, thinking that he might have found the real thing, and even Joziah Sham couldn't spot the flaw.
The more Phoebe saw Baraz Chau, the more satisfied she became. He was sensible and well-informed, making him the best choice to be his son-in-law.
As for the so-called Mr. Chor, he didn't even want to show his face. Who knew if he was a liar or not? She didn't want to take the risk.
Thinking of this, Phoebe's tone couldn't help but become a little yin and yang:
"The Chau Family is worthy of being an aristocratic family. The children they raise are well-educated, unlike some people who say they are big shots from the provincial capital, but in the end they have no rules at all."
Baraz Chau became more and more proud and glanced at Hagop Chor provocatively.
Mandy Sham was extremely angry. Baraz Chau, a bitch, was here to cause trouble and wanted to overshadow her brother-in-law.
At this time, Hagop Chor chuckled:
"Uncle and aunt, your eyesight is not very good. How can a fake make you so happy?"
As soon as these words came out, Phoebe was stunned and looked at the bottle in her hand:
"Fake?"
Baraz Chau was startled, fearing that his secret would be revealed, so he spoke first:
"Don't be so disrespectful. I bought this antique with real money. Why do you say it's fake? Are you not a treasure appraiser?"
Hagop Chor said lightly:
"Do not believe?"
"If you don't believe it, just rub your sleeve on the bottom of the bottle, and it will immediately remove a layer of ash!"
Phoebe subconsciously tried it, and sure enough, a layer of white dust appeared. It was obviously not dust, but the residue from the old crafts.
Even though she didn't know much about antiques, she still noticed something was wrong, and there was suspicion in her eyes.
Joziah Sham also showed a clear look. No wonder he felt something was wrong with this Ming and Qing flower. Sure enough, there was something wrong.
Cold sweat broke out on Baraz Chau forehead, and he secretly cursed the sharp-eyed man named Chu in his heart. He quickly said:
"Uncle and aunt, it's all my fault that they didn't realize it was a fake, but my feelings are definitely true."
Mandy Sham sneered and added the knife:
"Baraz Chau, how long will you continue to pretend?"
"I think you just deliberately bought fake goods to deceive my parents. If you have the ability, you can pull up the transaction records and let me take a look."
Baraz Chau's words suddenly got stuck. After stammering for a while, he said bravely:
"Of course there are transaction records, but I won't be able to retrieve them for a while. I'll show them to you next time..."
As he spoke, he had an idea and changed the topic:
"But no matter what, I also gave gifts. Unlike Mandy, your boyfriend didn't buy anything when he met his uncle and aunt for the first time, and there was no courtesy at all."
Mandy Sham sarcastically said:
"That's better than giving you a fake. If my boyfriend hadn't taken action, would you have been able to eat in the Tianzi No. 1 private room of Tianfu Restaurant?"
Just when the two were arguing, Hagop Chor spoke in a strange tone:
"Who said I didn't prepare a gift?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone including Mandy Sham was stunned.
"Sister...husband, when did you prepare the gift?"
After saying that, Mandy Sham's face turned red and she was extremely shy.
There was no way, she couldn't call Hagop Chor by his name, and calling her boyfriend directly was too blunt, so she could only call her husband.
Hearing the word "husband, " Baraz Chau's face turned as ugly as if he had eaten a dead fly.
Hagop Chor smiled slightly. As the Lord of the Dragon Prison, even if he didn't say anything, his subordinates would arrange things without leakage.
He took out a palm-sized rosewood box and slowly opened it. On the red velvet cloth, there was a mutton-fat white jade bracelet without any variegation.
Judging by the appearance, it’s much better than the fake Ming and Qing flowers!
When Mandy Sham and Phoebe saw this bracelet, they couldn't take their eyes away immediately. As women, they like this kind of jewelery the most.
Phoebe immediately smiled:
"Chor is so thoughtful. I didn't expect to prepare such a beautiful jade bracelet for me."
Hagop Chor glanced at her lightly:
"Don't get me wrong, this is for my girlfriend."
With that said, he took out the jade bracelet, took Mandy Sham's hand, and put the bracelet on her hand in her dazed gaze.
Mandy Sham felt that this jade bracelet was not cold at all. On the contrary, it was extremely warm and not like ordinary things. She couldn't help but secretly marveled at it.
This fake is quite real!
I don’t know where my brother-in-law got it.
Phoebe face turned dark when she saw this. How could she offend her daughter's boyfriend? He actually showed off to her.
Little did they know that she had offended Hagop Chor in so many ways that she could not even count them.
Even if it was just for fun, Hagop Chor was too lazy to give Fu Lian face. Anyway, it was just a gift. Wouldn't it be nice to give the gift directly to Mandy?
"Like it?"
Hagop Chor asked in a gentle tone.
Mandy Sham nodded with a red face:
"I like it, but isn't this bracelet very expensive?"
Hagop Chor smiled and said:
"It's just over ten million, it's nothing, as long as you like it."
Joziah Sham and others were shocked, more than 10 million? This is too embarrassing!
Only Mandy Sham thought Hagop Chor was talking nonsense, and secretly sighed in her heart, brother-in-law really dared to brag!
Seeing how affectionate they were, Baraz Chau couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly:
"You said more than ten million means more than ten million? Isn't it just a jade bracelet? It's easier to fake it. It might be made of stone or glass!"
Mandy Sham retorted:
"What nonsense are you talking about? My boyfriend gave me the bracelet. You can tell it's real as soon as you touch it. If you can, make one and let me see it!"
Baraz Chau persisted and said:
"Mandy, I'm worried that you will be deceived. Otherwise, how about I ask a professional appraiser to appraise it?"
Hagop Chor looked at him with a slightly cold tone:
"Are you questioning my identity? Do you think I can't even afford a bracelet worth more than 10 million yuan?"
"If you want to ask an appraiser to check the authenticity, that's up to you, but if you do that, then there will be no need for The Chau Family to exist!"
When Baraz Chau heard this, he felt cold all over and his hair stood on end. He had a vague feeling that what the other party said was true!
