Mrs. Shen frowned imperceptibly, "Where are the international craftsmen?"
Butler Zhao replied, "I've asked them all. They can't even repair your necklace."
Mrs. Shen's frown deepened.
"The G-couture piece that Miss Yingying brought back from abroad this time has the same color as the dress you are going to wear. You can match it with it." Butler Zhao asked, "Do you want to change the necklace?"
Mrs. Shen pursed her lips and did not give an accurate answer.
Butler Zhao stood in front of her with his hands tied, his head lowered and silently waiting for an answer.
Zhu Jin didn't want to get involved, but her deep love for jewelry made her curious.
"Grandma, can you show me that necklace of yours?"
Mrs. Shen obviously did not expect Zhu Jinhui to ask for such a request. She was startled, then smiled and nodded, "Of course."
Butler Zhao handed over the box with a knowing look.
Lying in a black velvet box was a platinum necklace.
The necklace is simple in style, not complicated with complicated decorations. The whole necklace only has the ruby pendant at the bottom.
When Zhu Jin reached out to get it, Butler Zhao moved the box away and said, "Sorry, this necklace is easily damaged, so you'd better keep a look at it."
"It's okay." Mrs. Shen said, "Go and get the gloves."
When Butler Zhao heard this, he could only nod in agreement.
When Butler Zhao handed over the gloves, Zhu Jin took them and put them on skillfully, then placed the necklace in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully.
There is not much wear on the platinum necklace, and it can even be said to be well-preserved. Only the red gemstone and the gemstone holder have serious wear.
The red gemstone is a small piece, and you can't see it clearly unless you look carefully.
"Do you want to repair the wear between the gem and the gem holder?" Zhu Jin turned around and asked.
Mrs. Shen replied, "Yes. I accidentally bumped and damaged it when I was wearing it before. There is a small piece of wear on the gemstone."
The simplest way to deal with this kind of damage is to dig out and replace the entire gem, or simply replace the pendant with a new one.
However, the repair effect that Mrs. Shen wants is definitely not like this.
"Want to keep this ruby?" Zhu Jin asked.
After Mrs. Shen hummed, she glanced at Butler Zhao and asked Butler Zhao to help explain.
Butler Zhao said, "Yes. This necklace was a token of love given to the old lady by the master. The old lady hopes to keep the ruby on it and see if there is a way to shrink the gem holder or repair it in other ways. .”
Zhu Jin listened to Butler Zhao's words. She took the necklace closer and carefully inspected the wear location.
Butler Zhao wanted to remind Zhu Jin to be careful, but was stopped by Mrs. Shen.
After Zhu Jin gently put the necklace back into the velvet jewelry box, Mrs. Shen asked, "Ms. Zhu, do you have any research on jewelry?"
"I studied jewelry design as a graduate student abroad and learned jewelry repair as a minor." Zhu Jin paused after answering, "If you don't mind, I can help you repair the necklace within two weeks."
Mrs. Shen's face became a little more interested, "Oh?"
Butler Zhao, who was standing aside, frowned and reminded, "Second Madam, please don't joke. This necklace is of great significance to the master and the old lady."
"Housekeeper Zhao." Mrs. Shen said, "You talk a bit too much today."
Butler Zhao realized that he was talking too much, so he immediately shut up and took half a step back.
"Yes. I have an idea and would like to hear your opinion." Zhu Jin said.
"Say it." Mrs. Shen took a sip from her tea cup and waited for the answer.
"Your ruby necklace bears witness to the relationship between you and grandpa over the years, so it is extremely precious."
There was a hint of regret in Zhu Jin's tone, "It's a pity that the edges are severely worn, and no one can restore it 100% perfectly."
Mrs. Shen's smile faded slightly.
"Those craftsmen should also know this, so they refused this job." Zhu Jin said, "You should know that if a jade bracelet is broken and repaired, it will never be the same as before. And the craftsmen will use gold to inlay jade. Use various methods to repair the jade bracelet, making the previous bracelet even more luxurious."
Zhu Jin said seriously, "If you are willing, I suggest you add a small piece of green jade or emerald, then inlay it and glue it on, it will look like a small piece of green leaf. It will not overwhelm the guest, but it will serve as the finishing touch." .”
Butler Zhao's brows furrowed together, obviously disapproving of this proposal.
Mrs. Shen looked at Zhu Jin with a little more appreciation in her eyes.
The Shen family is a jewelry family, and Mrs. Shen was a well-known jewelry designer back then. She naturally knew how bold Zhu Jin's proposal was.
Mrs. Shen also knew the reason why other craftsmen did not dare to take orders.
Not everyone has the courage to propose this suggestion, which is why Mrs. Shen admires Zhu Jin.
"Can you repair it using the method you just proposed?" Mrs. Shen asked.
Zhu Jin nodded, "Okay."
She is interested and confident in jewelry restoration.
It's also a shame that this necklace remains in a worn state.
"Then this necklace will trouble you." Mrs. Shen said.
"I will definitely live up to your expectations."
Butler Zhao, who was watching from the side, looked worried, "Old madam, is this not good?"
Mrs. Shen's face darkened and she said displeasedly, "When will the decisions I make need to be approved by you?"
Butler Zhao could hear the anger in the other party's words, and he shook his head and said he didn't dare.
"Okay." Mrs. Shen waved her hand, "I don't need your service here, please step aside first."
"Yes." Butler Zhao reluctantly left.
Zhu Jin glanced at Butler Zhao thoughtfully.
Mrs. Shen noticed her glance, sipped her tea and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Well, Butler Zhao seems to be a little too impatient."
"kindness?"
Zhu Jin answered truthfully, "He doesn't seem to want you to repair the necklace. Although he may be worried that I will damage the necklace, he seems to have other selfish motives."
She had no conclusive evidence, so she couldn't be 100% sure when she said it.
Mrs. Shen gently put down the tea cup and did not dwell on the matter. Instead, she pushed the jewelry velvet box in the direction of Zhu Jin.
"I leave this necklace to you."
Zhu Jin asked, "Do you like flowers or cherries?"
She planned to slightly alter the ruby, so these were the only two patterns she could choose.
"Rose flowers." Mrs. Shen said with a hint of nostalgia in her tone, "It just so happens that Jingcheng's mother also likes them."
"Okay." Zhu Jin agreed.
Mrs. Shen asked, "What color do you want for the emerald?"
Zhu Jin shook his head and smiled at the person, "I happen to have a good-quality emerald on my hand, which matches this ruby very well."
"Okay. As long as you can repair it, you can take whatever you want from the Shen family's treasure house."
Zhu Jin smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Then I'll thank grandma first."
"What are you talking about and having so much fun?" Huo Jingcheng's deep voice came from behind.
