Wife’s Funny Life - Chapter 53

A charity banquet was basically a place for the upper class to fight for wealth.

It didn’t matter who the money was spent on, even if it was a success, since he had to spend it in front of so many celebrities.

The Chen family had been doing business for generations, and now that their business was abroad, they began to value philanthropy even more. Chen Siya, the granddaughter of the Chen family, was a volunteer at Hua Yang International Relief Club.

This was the first time that Wu Anguo and Xu Bao had attended such an event. Xu Bao regretfully discovered that there was nothing good to eat today, only some drinks. This banquet was naturally a place for communication. Even if there was food, no one would eat too much.

Seeing how this fellow was so big, yet he didn’t even provide any food for him to eat, he was truly stingy. Xu Bao was very bored. He didn’t have anything to eat, so he obediently followed his husband.

As the host and host of the banquet, Chen Siya also put in a lot of effort to dress up. Chanel O5 perfume, Ferragamo shoes, CD lipstick, world-famous brand Slyin clothes, and carrying an LV handbag, this kind of dressing up and dressing up was enough for an ordinary person to live their entire life.

Very soon, everyone was gathered. She gracefully walked to the front desk and began the main event of the evening, the charity auction. She gave a short speech in which she thanked all those who had come to this charity banquet for their contributions to the charity cause, and once again declared that the money from the auction tonight would be donated by Hua Yang to those who needed it …

Following that, everyone present at the banquet prepared an item for auction. Of course, all of them had informed the auction beforehand.

Wu Anguo told the little girl to prepare something she liked, and when the time came for him to take it to the auction, he would just auction it off and give it to her.

Xu Bao knew that he could help his husband and was very happy to choose something for him.

When she thought of the dishes she liked, she picked up a bag of silver fish. The dried silver fish that she had finally bought looked delicious. Xu Bao had put them away for a long time, but he had never been willing to eat them. Just like the greedy cat, she took them out to sniff and then put them back.

She hesitated for a long time. When she thought of how her elder brother had asked her to do the proper business for him, she decided to trust him since he had said that she liked the silver fish the most. She really wanted to eat it as soon as possible.

This time, Chen Siya mustered her strength to fight for the limelight. She unexpectedly took out a Southern and Northern Dynasties blue and white porcelain bottle. With the light shining on it, it was extremely magnificent. In order to be grand, she had also hired five experts to evaluate the antiques.

Everything at the scene would be appraised before being auctioned off.

However, there was a huge gap between the two prices. The highest price was the Cyan Pot of Nan Bei Chao which was estimated to be worth six thousand yuan, which was a very high price. But at the same time, I don’t know who actually donated a bag of silver fish jerky, the price is only 3 yuan, I don’t know who, this is too much of a prank.

He didn’t know whether it was a deliberate arrangement or not, but the silverfish jerky had actually been placed in the first auction.

When Wu Anguo saw the bag of dried silver fish, he smiled helplessly. Whenever the girl in his home placed something to eat first, she would put it first.

The auction started. Wu Anguo looked at the excited little girl, pinched her nose, and then raised his hand. One thousand yuan!

“Wow!” The scene was in an uproar.

Apparently, a thousand yuan in a bag of dried silver fish had stopped them. When Chen Siya saw this thing, she knew that it was prepared by that countryside wife of Big Brother Wu. She had originally wanted to humiliate her, but she hadn’t expected that Big Brother Wu would be so domineering, opening with a thousand yuan.

Naturally, no one would compete with him. Who would be so stupid as to spend a thousand yuan to buy a bag of dried silver fish? It was simply not worth it.

The happiest person was Xu Bao. Seeing that the silver fish finally returned to her hands, she was so excited that she hugged her husband and kissed him. For the past two days, she had been wanting to eat the fish even in her dreams, afraid that the little silver fish would be bought by others.

Wu Anguo actually made a name for himself because of this auction.

When Master Du heard this, he sat on the sofa and mumbled to himself, “A good match, a good match for such an opponent!”

Of course, Wu Anguo wasn’t the only one to be in the limelight this time. Chen Siya was even more eye-catching.

Her blue porcelain bottle was the final item to be auctioned. Many people wanted to get their hands on it, so the price kept rising. In the end, the price broke through 10,000 yuan.

It was taken by Chen Siya, showing that she was rich and magnanimous. It would be the best choice if he took his own things.

After the auction, she was even generous enough to let everyone admire her. Unlike Xu Bao, he carefully placed the silverfish jerky away and prepared to go home to eliminate it.

The five appraisal experts were all guarding the blue and white porcelain bottles. Everyone at the banquet had the chance to go over and take a look. A 10,000 yuan bottle of blue and white porcelain was truly outrageous.

Wu Anguo also brought Xu Bao to take a look. Xu Bao was very curious. His elder brother was willing to spend one thousand yuan to buy a silver fish, and that elder sister was actually willing to spend ten thousand yuan to buy a bottle. Furthermore, this bottle was so small, it couldn’t even be pickled.

“Big Brother, do you think this bottle is not as sturdy as the pickled vegetables from back home? “Why do they look like they’re looking at delicious food? Could it be that there’s something delicious inside?” Xu Bao asked curiously.

Before Wu Anguo could reply, Chen Siya, who was standing at the side and feeling very pleased with herself, flew into a rage. She was unhappy, too unhappy. She was wearing such a big outfit, yet it did not attract the attention of Brother Wu. Tonight, Brother Wu was looking at that country bumpkin girl. She actually dared to be so confident when she brought out a bag of salted fish.

“Sister-in-law, this bottle can’t be used to store mundane things like food. It carries the culture of history. Normal people can’t understand that kind of profound knowledge.” Chen Siya said indifferently.

At the same time, all the surrounding famous ladies laughed. Those with discerning eyes could tell that Chen Siya was mocking Xu Bao. This Si Ya was too bad, she actually dared to insult him like this.

Xu Bao did not understand the profoundness of her sister’s words. Hearing that it contained something called history and culture, she became even more curious.

“Cultural objects can’t be seen or touched, but they can still be stored in bottles? It was too strange. Brother, do you think that this big sister has no culture and wants to buy a bottle of culture? ” Xu Bao seriously asked his husband.

Wu Anguo raised his head to look at Chen Siya, who was standing in front of him. He saw her smiling innocently, and then looked at those so-called famous ladies who were snickering around, and suddenly felt a burst of displeasure.

He didn’t know how to explain it to the little girl, so he just coughed and said, “If Little Treasure is weird, go and take a look. If you like it, I’ll buy one for you too.”

Xu Bao also felt that being able to see culture was a very magical thing, so he stuck his head out and looked around. However, she could only see a pitch black space inside. There was nothing inside.

Then, she moved closer, using both hands to hold the bottle. She looked left and right, but still didn’t see anything special.

Xu Bao innocently said to Chen Siya, “Didn’t I see something special? Is there any difference between this and the vat of pickled vegetables?”

When the surrounding people heard the salted vegetables, they burst into laughter. This Mrs. Wu is such an idiot.

“You!” No matter how good her demeanor was, Chen Siya was unable to control her emotions. She picked up the bottle angrily and shouted, “These are the authentic Southern and Northern Dynasty’s blue and white porcelain. You can buy ten thousand of your vat of pickled vegetables.

Xu Bao looked at his sister’s furious expression and carefully stood to the side. It was just a bunch of bottles. Was there a need to be so angry?

However, Chen Siya unyieldingly handed the bottle to Xu Bao, letting him have a good look. This and the country’s pickled vegetables were a different story. The pickled vegetables jar was dead heavy, so how could it be so light?

Xu Bao saw that she had to give it to him, so he could only extend his hand to receive it. However, he suddenly felt that his face was a bit itchy.

The five appraisal experts quickly dodged out of the way. It had nothing to do with them.

But one of the experts was caught at the scene before he could run away because he was too old and too slow.

He was full of bad luck.

Chen Si Ya was so infuriated that she went crazy. Looking at the fragment, that was 10,000 yuan! She usually had a lot of money, but she also spent a lot of it.

Xu Bao took a look and saw that the bottle had been broken. It still didn’t have any culture.

At this time, the old expert lowered his head to look at the film on the ground. The more he saw, the more surprised he became.

The moment he shouted, the other four experts ran over awkwardly and picked up the porcelain plates one by one.

Ah!

“Ya!”

“How can this be! “That’s impossible!”

“Weird, weird!”

As the four experts held the porcelain pieces, they let out different sighs.

The last slow-moving expert had no choice but to take the lead. Holding a piece of porcelain, he said to Chen Siya, “I’m really sorry. This blue and white porcelain vase shouldn’t be from the Southern or Northern Dynasties.

Chen Siya was greatly humiliated. She was a volunteer at Huayang Yi Faction. She actually took out a fake for auction. Although she bought it herself in the end, what if someone else bought it? Wasn’t that a scam? The charity banquets these days were getting more and more unreliable.

On the way home, Xu Bao happily ate the dried little silver fish. He felt that today had been a very fulfilling day. The only thing he lacked was the regret he felt for his sister’s matter.

He spent one thousand yuan to buy a bag of dried silver fish. It was delicious, but that sister of his had spent ten thousand yuan to buy not even a jar of pickled vegetables.

“Big brother, why do you think that big sister is so unlucky?” Xu Bao mumbled as he bit into the dried silver fish.

At the Chen residence, a woman shouted, “It’s all that country woman’s fault …”
