Chapter 179

The wives usually get together every Monday. This time they gathered at Mrs. Wang's house. Gu Jia was called to help after sending Xu Ziyan to school.

"You really spent a lot of money. I asked someone to look for this bag for a long time, but I couldn't buy it. Who did you get it from?"

As soon as Gu Jia came in, Mrs. Wang was attracted by the bag she was carrying.

"One is a good friend, and he has lost his strength; if you bring me into the group, I can't lose face."

After asking someone around, they couldn't find a bag that would not let the wind down. Gu Jia bit the bullet and used the one that Chen Xu gave her that day; She also wore it on her wrist.

"Well, we joined forces today, and we must make them look good; that Mrs. Liu, every time I get together, she sneers at me in Shanghai dialect, pretending that I don't understand, but I just don't want to argue with her."

The collision between emerging industries and traditional industries has also spread to the wife circle. Every time Gu Jia thinks of this, she can't laugh or cry.

"Look, this is for the tea party. I specially custom-made tables, chairs and tableware from France, all of which are made of rosewood."

"Why are they all high tables?"

The relationship between the two was much better than before, and the tea party was still in the preparation stage, so Gu Jia spoke bluntly.

"Isn't a high table bad? The high table is high-end and atmospheric."

"In France, high tables are used to greet servants, so that they can continue to work after eating, and low tables are used to greet distinguished guests."

She is uneducated and likes to pretend to be high-end. There is a reason why Mrs. Wang is often laughed at.

"It's true, but it's too late to find a similar set now; alas, if I knew this earlier, I would check it online before ordering."

In the Internet age, many things can be known by checking the Internet, Mrs. Wang who checked the news on her mobile phone sighed.

"Mrs. Wang, don't worry. I've figured out a way. With today's limelight, we're really set."

Just like in the play, Gu Jia was cut off from the group photo of the first party, which is why she wanted to win.

"Hello, Xiaoqin, are you home?"

Gu Jia called Zhong Xiaoqin.

"It's okay, I just want to borrow the dining table and chairs for afternoon tea from you. You don't need to bring them to my house. I'll get them myself later."

Now the afternoon tea table and chairs in Zhong Xiaoqin's house are made of golden nanmu; Chen Xu mentioned it before, when Gu Jia thought he was joking, and didn't care.

After learning about his strength from Mrs. Yu some time ago, Gu Jia thought of it again; taking the opportunity to visit the pregnant Zhong Xiaoqin, she made sure again that it was the real thing.

The most expensive co-author Chen Xu gave to his brother was not the house, but the dining table and chairs.

That is to say, the nanmu is strong, and Gu Jia really wanted to win today, so Gu Jia said this.

"That's the only way you can find someone to borrow furniture? How about I ask the driver to go to the furniture store to buy a set now."

Mrs. Wang looked down on Gu Jia's attention.

"Mrs. Wang, my friend's set of furniture is made of golden nanmu; that thing has a price but no market, and you may not be able to find a few sets in the whole of China. Are you sure you don't need it?"

What Gu Jia said is really not nonsense. There may be a lot of furniture made of golden nanmu in China. You can use golden nanmu to make western-style afternoon tea dining tables and chairs. Chen Xu's family is probably the only one.

That's right, this is exactly one of his achievements in the Republic of China.

"The dining table and chairs made of golden nanmu, is your friend willing to lend you so confidently?"

When ordering this batch of red sandalwood high tables, Mrs. Wang checked the golden nanmu and knew its approximate price, so she asked the truth.

"My friend is my son's godmother. She is also pregnant now. If she has a daughter, will she still plan to marry me?"

"You still have such a friend, when will you bring her out, let's get to know each other."

Mrs. Wang thought she knew Gu Jia well enough, but she didn't expect to underestimate her.

"Next time, she doesn't like to come out when she's pregnant."

It's not that Gu Jia is stingy, she just thinks that Zhong Xiaoqin will definitely not get along with the wives.

Although it was only a few buildings away, in order to move these tables and chairs, Mrs. Wang specially called a high-end moving company.

"This is the golden nanmu, it looks higher than the red sandalwood I ordered; Gu Jia, where did your friend buy this table and chair, can you help me find out?"

Mrs. Wang started again, only missing the words "Sister is not short of money" engraved on her forehead.

"If you ask, I can ask for you, but as I said just now, this thing is priceless and hard to buy;

And it's expensive. According to my friend, her husband's family spent 3 million on this set of tables, chairs and benches. "

Gu Jia was talking nonsense at this price, it was just to calm Mrs. Wang and save her from going on forever.

"3 million, that's really expensive..."

People can deceive others, but they cannot deceive themselves; just like Mrs. Wang can fool Gu Jia into saying that the "Water Lilies" in the living room is genuine Monet, but she cannot deceive herself, nor can she change that the painting was bought for 10 yuan High imitation of this fact.

A set of 3 million tables and chairs is indeed beyond her ability to bear.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Wang and Gu Jia were almost ready, and other members of the wives group also arrived.

"Mrs. Li, how about it? Although I can't compare with your mansion and villa, it's not bad."

With a dining table and chairs worth 3 million yuan and home court advantage, Mrs. Wang is so confident that she dares to challenge Mrs. Li, who used to be C in the wives group; as for Mrs. Liu who is following Mrs. Li, who is she?
"That's right, it's pretty good; our old house, built for seven or eighty years, doesn't dare to compare with your new house..."

Mrs. Li's bones and soft palms make her very slippery, which is almost saying that Mrs. Wang's family background is not enough.

"Hi Mrs. Lee"

"Mrs. Xu is here too. Hey, your new bag is not bad."

This is the woman who is popular for comparison; Mrs. Wang can tell what bag Gu Jia is carrying at a glance, and Mrs. Li is the same.

The only one who didn't speak was Mrs. Liu. Her family was engaged in a traditional industry and she owned a jewelry store under her name. She had been looking at her bracelets since Gu Jia appeared.

"Mrs. Liu, my sister's new bag is not bad."

Feeling that Gu Jia gave her a face, Mrs. Wang changed her name.

"Mrs. Xu is a real person who doesn't show her face. I was indeed the one who missed last time."

"Oh, and when Mrs. Liu misses it, that's really rare."

For a moment, Mrs. Wang felt that all the anger she had received from Mrs. Liu in the past few years was gone.

"Mrs. Liu is joking, what kind of real person am I?"

The goal has been achieved, Gu Jia knows that she is here to make friends, not to make enemies.

"But Mrs. Xu, aren't you afraid of being robbed if you wear such a bracelet when you go out?"

As soon as Mrs. Liu finished speaking, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Li paid attention to the emerald jade bracelet Gu Jia was wearing.

"this…"

When wearing it, Gu Jia realized that the bracelet was very valuable, but seeing Mrs. Liu's current posture, she probably underestimated it.

"What are you talking about, what's the event today."

Just when Gu Jia didn't know how to answer, Mrs. Yu, an eighteenth-line starlet, arrived.

"There is no activity today, just a few of us have a random gathering, have some afternoon tea and have some snacks."

Mrs. Wang was supposed to say this, but Gu Jia, who was eager to change the topic, couldn't care less.

"Is her bracelet worth much?"

After Gu Jia walked away, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu bit their ears; Mrs. Wang looked indifferent, but was actually listening attentively.

"I don't think it's possible to hit seven figures, but I still have this vision."

Mrs. Liu said confidently.
