Look what this flame pattern resembles?

"Jiang Xia, are you opening sea snails?" Jiang Xia quickly walked to Zhou Chenglei's side.

"Yes." Zhou Chenglei carefully placed the two sea snails on the ground and went to the storage room to find tools.

Mother Zhou saw the two big fellows on the ground and said in surprise, "Oh, what kind of sea snails are these? They're so big! These two big things are quite beautiful. Why didn't you sell them just now? Such beautiful sea snail shells are also worth some money."

The Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam's shell is about the same color as a coconut shell, but it is covered with white spikes of varying lengths, making it look unapproachable.

The Emperor Tang Guan Conch is white with brown spots. It also has thorns, but they are not as sharp as the Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam's, nor are they as impossible to handle. They are thorny but feel a bit dull.

Father Zhou came out after taking a shower, glanced at them, and immediately put down the bucket and walked over, "Sell them? This snail is an Emperor Tang Guan Conch, and this is an Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam. Such a big one might have pearls! Which of you two picked them up?"

Zhou Chenglei: "Jiang Xia picked them up."

Father Zhou: "..."

It's Jiang Xia again?

"Xiao Xia, your sea luck is amazing!"

Jiang Xia smiled, "I just got lucky."

When Mother Zhou heard that there might be pearls, she urged, "Then hurry up and open them!"

Tian Caihua came in with a basket of vegetables at this time and asked casually, "What 'got lucky'? Open what?"

She went to the vegetable garden to pick cucumbers for the children to eat as fruit. The cucumbers grew well this year, and there were many of them. If they didn't eat them, they would get old, so she sent a basket over.

Then Tian Caihua saw the two big fellows on the ground. Her eyes widened, "What are these sea snails? Fourth Sister-in-law, did you pick them up?"

Jiang Xia couldn't hide it even if she wanted to. Who knew she would come back so soon after leaving.

Mother Zhou said triumphantly, "Besides Xiao Xia, who else in our family has such sea luck? Your father said they are Emperor Tang Guan Conch and some kind of Star Clam, and they might have pearls. A'Lei, hurry up and open them to see if there are any pearls."

Tian Caihua was sour again. What kind of sea luck did Jiang Xia have? She couldn't help but say, "These sea snails do look big, but the sea snail that Da Hai's family picked up before that had a pearl was even bigger than this one. This one is so small, I don't know if it has any."

Mother Zhou glared at her, "Bah, bah, bah... you Raven's Beak! If you can't speak properly, don't say anything!"

The Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam was covered in thorns. Zhou Chenglei wore gloves and finally pried open its shell. A white, UFO-shaped pearl was revealed in the clam meat! Tian Caihua: "..."

What kind of luck is this? Picking up a thorny thing at random and finding a pearl? Although Jiang Xia already knew there was a pearl, she couldn't help but feel surprised, "This pearl is quite big."

Zhou Chenglei picked up the pearl, washed it in salt water in a bowl, and handed it to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia took it and looked at it, examining it.

The Orangutan Sea Chrysanthemum Clam's pearl is white, without any pearly luster, and not round enough, only with a little luster. Its luster is far less than that of ordinary white pearls, but this pearl is bigger than a suit button. Most importantly, its texture actually formed a Camellia! Lying in the palm of your hand, it looks like a blooming white Camellia, elegant and low-key.

Even if it lacks a little pearly luster, it is worth money to be formed like this! If it can be put on the international auction market, it is estimated that it will be bought at a high price by someone from a certain brand!

Tian Caihua glanced at it, "It is a pearl, and it is big enough, but there are too many flaws, and there is no luster at all. I'm afraid it's not worth much money. What a pity!"

Not all pearls are valuable.

Mother Zhou was also a little disappointed. Why did such a big pearl lack a bit of pearly luster? Otherwise, it would be very valuable! Jiang Xia: "If it can't be sold for much money, then keep it. This is a natural pearl, a gift from nature. Even if it's not expensive, it can ward off evil spirits!"

Father Zhou also couldn't stand his eldest daughter-in-law's unlucky words. No matter what, finding a pearl is very good luck.

He said, "Jiang Xia is right. The old people used to say that a perfect pearl can ward off evil spirits. If it can't be sold for money, keep it at home to ward off evil spirits. Such a big one can protect the family's safety."

The corners of Tian Caihua's mouth twitched. She wanted to say that a pearl could ward off evil spirits and protect peace? Then everyone in the world would be safe and prosperous, but she didn't say it after all, so as not to displease her parents-in-law.

Tian Caihua said, "Fourth Sister-in-law has such good luck, maybe this sea snail also has a pearl. Fourth Brother, hurry up and open it to see."

Zhou Chenglei wanted to smash the sea snail shell, but Jiang Xia thought that such a big sea snail shell could be made into art, and it was quite beautiful, so she quickly stopped him, "Is there a way to get the snail meat out without smashing the sea snail shell?"

Father Zhou immediately took out an iron hook.

It took Zhou Chenglei some effort to hook out a large lump of sea snail meat with the iron hook.

Mother Zhou: "Look carefully to see if there are any pearls."

Zhou Chenglei carefully searched through the sea snail meat.

The family surrounded him, watching his movements without blinking.

Tian Caihua's heart was raised. They had already opened one pearl, wouldn't they be so lucky?

Suddenly, Zhou Chenglei's movements stopped.

Tian Caihua's heart skipped a beat.

No way? Zhou Chenglei pinched the conch meat, and a golden, round, fingernail-sized pearl was pinched out by him.

Father Zhou's eyes lit up: "This pearl looks valuable at first glance."

Tian Caihua: "!!!"

Mother Zhou said excitedly: "This pearl is beautiful! It looks like a golden pearl, and it looks so smooth, as if it has no flaws?"

Ninety-nine percent of natural wild pearls have flaws. To find a pearl without any flaws is truly a blessing from God, allowing you to make a fortune.

Zhou Chenglei washed it in salt water before handing the pearl to Jiang Xia: "There are no flaws, that little bit doesn't count as a flaw."

Jiang Xia was reaching out to take it when Tian Caihua couldn't help but reach out to snatch it: "Let me see!"

Zhou Chenglei avoided her hand and handed it to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia reached out and took it.

Tian Caihua pursed her lips and silently retracted her hand: What's so great about it? It's not like I've never seen one before!

She also picked up a pearl oyster a few years ago and found two pearls.

Jiang Xia ignored her and lowered her head to study the pearl in her hand.

This is a golden pearl with orange flame patterns. The shape of the pearl is very good, it is perfectly round, with a soft and full luster, full of pearly brilliance.

"This pearl is much better than the one just now, it's rounder and bigger. If it didn't have any flaws, it would be worth at least one hundred and several tens of yuan." Mother Zhou watched from the side, her tone joyful.

Jiang Xia turned the pearl in her hand: "There is a little flaw."

Tian Caihua also saw the small black spots on it, "It looks so good, how can there still be a little flaw? Otherwise, how much more valuable would it be!"

Jiang Xia didn't speak, carefully looking at the texture on the pearl. Suddenly, she tugged on Zhou Chenglei's clothes: "Zhou Chenglei, what do you think the flame pattern on this pearl looks like?"

Jiang Xia's voice couldn't help but be a little excited.
