True Love Waits
Chapter 962
In the living room, Sheffield handed a brocade box to Miranda and said, "Grandma, this is a rutilated quartz bracelet consecrated by an eminent monk. Evelyn and I bought it for you in a temple. We wish you health, fortune and happiness." The bracelet was made of red, green, and yellow rutilated quartz beads. Red ones represented happiness and longevity, while green and yellow ones represented fortune. Rutilated quartz was regarded as the symbol of happiness, fortune and longevity.
Miranda's eyes widened and she broke into a smile so cheerful that it lit up her entire face. The excitement in her eyes was palpable as she put the bracelet on her wrist and reveled in its extravagance. "It's beautiful. Thank you, Sheffield!"
"I'm glad you like it, Grandma. It isn't expensive, but it's the token of my respect for you."
At this age, Miranda had seen all kinds of things. It was the thought that went behind the gift that was more important than the gift itself. "I really like it!" she said.
Then, grabbing another gift bag, Sheffield took out an even bigger square brocade box. He handed it to Carlos and respectfully said, "Uncle Carlos, this boccaro ashtray is for you. Happy New Year! May you be prosperous and healthy forever!"
Although Carlos had long reduced his smoking habits, he would still indulge in a cigarette or two on some occasions. As such, an ashtray was a thoughtful gift for him.
"Humph!" Carlos looked away, crossing his arms over his chest and continued, "You think you can fool me with a cheap ashtray?"
Sheffield knew it wouldn't be easy to deal with Carlos. With a mysterious smile, he opened the brocade box and produced a special-shaped boccaro ashtray, dark purple in color with a tinge of blue. Instantly, the ashtray caught Carlos' attention. After he had been staring at the ashtray for a long time, he raised an eyebrow at the young man, who was even calmer than him, and said, "Are you telling me that this ashtray is made out of azure mud?"
It was said that amongst all the different types of arenaceous mud, azure mud was the most sought after.
It was considered to be one of the most expensive and rarest materials in the whole world.
Glancing shortly at the ashtray in the box, Sheffield nodded. "Yes."
"Azure mud was produced in the middle stage of the Qing Dynasty, no one has seen it since then. Do you take me for a fool?" Carlos couldn't take his eyes off the ashtray while he spoke. Sheffield's lips broke into a smirk and he said, "Uncle Carlos, how can you be so sure that no one knew where to find them?"
Carlos didn't answer his question. Indeed, there was no way he could be so sure about that.
