Chapter 78: Can You Rest Assured (Three Watches)
Zuo Sirou was speechless, and at this time, there happened to be an old man wearing a straw hat who stopped Ye Xiaochi and Zuo Sirou at the corner of a side door.
"Girl, look at my jade pendant, it was left by my grandfather, and now the family is having a hard time, and I want to sell it for some money, can you see it?"
Zuo Sirou was upright in her heart, and waved her hand: "Don't buy it, ask others." "Although she is not very old, she knows a little bit about this business.
Ye Xiaochi thought that this was another storyteller, but when his eyes fell on the jade pendant in the palm of the man's hand, he stopped.
There were a few bamboos carved on the jade pendant, and he flipped through it in his hand and asked, "How much do you want for this jade pendant?"
The old man saw that Ye Xiaochi was not impatient to walk away like others, or to pick and choose, and seemed to be interested in this jade pendant, so he boldly said: "Two hundred yuan..."
Ye Xiaochi gasped, the jade pendant is real, but she doesn't like this jade pendant, if she buys it, she will definitely sell it. But at this price, if she wants to sell, she probably won't make much profit. And she doesn't have that much now.
Looking at the old man's calloused hands, there were still a few cracks on his fingers, and at first glance, he was a person who worked all year round, which reminded her of Ye Zhengang at home, who was almost the same pair of hands.
Ye Xiaochi told him: "Then you can take a look again, I don't have so much money and can't buy it." Or you take this jade pendant to a few shops over there and ask them to see if they accept it. Don't throw it away. ”
The old man had hope. Hearing her say this, her eyes dimmed again. He has been digging in the soil all his life, and when he goes to the store to ask, he is a little afraid to ask.
After Ye Xiaochi left, Zuo Sirou glanced at her a few times, she felt that this newcomer might have softened her heart when she saw the old man pitiful, this is not good, don't let people deceive her second brother when she shows her second brother, won't she cheat her second brother when the time comes?
Zuo Sirou made up her mind in her heart, so she didn't talk to Ye Xiaochi again, she followed Ye Xiaochi when she left, Ye Xiaochi stopped, and she watched coldly.
All the way back to the store without incident, Ye Xiaochi put down his things, and greeted the little boy Ji Zhengkun: "Come and eat, here is mutton filling, these are celery filling." ”
The kid was a little sleepy, but when he heard the food, he immediately became energetic, cheered, and politely said thank you to Ye Xiaochi, and then picked up a mutton filling and took a big bite.
This child usually has to be fed by his grandmother, but this time he was hungry and ate it without being urged. Zuo Sirou patted him: "Eat slowly." ”
There is still half of it that is not spoken: eating so fast, as if you have never eaten something good, there is no shame in it. Although she was hungry herself, she was able to control the speed at which she ate.
Ye Xiaochi put the things he bought on the coffee table in the room, and then gave the rest of the money to Zuo Yucheng, then opened the curtain and walked out.
Zuo Sirou saw that she was far away from here, so she whispered to Zuo Yucheng: "Second brother, I'll tell you ......."
After she finished speaking, Zuo Yucheng replied lightly: "That's it, I know." ”
"Got it, can you rest assured that this person is working here?" Zuo Sirou expressed dissatisfaction with his second brother's perfunctory attitude.
"Don't worry, that jade pendant may be real. You eat it quickly, it will be hard and not delicious when it gets cold for a while. Look at your brother's ability to eat faster than you. Zuo Yucheng was not interested in talking about the jade pendant.
Why? Everyone was angry with her. Besides, can you compare Ji Zhengkun's kid to eat with her?
Zuo Sirou ate two celery pies and drank some water and stopped eating, as for the biscuits and soda, he kept them when he had no food to eat and was hungry. Those things didn't appeal to her.
When he was doing nothing, the old man he had just met at the side door of the market cowered at the door of the store. Zuo Sirou's eyes widened, thinking that it wouldn't be such a coincidence. Just now, Ye Xiaochi said to ask him to find a few shops to ask, but he turned around and came to her second brother.
It's good to come, let her second brother see what the old man's hand looks like, what if it's a fake? Hehe, when the time comes, she wants to see what Ye Xiaochi said?
She went to shake Zuo Yucheng's arm: "Second brother and second brother, take a look, that person is here, just what I told you just now about selling jade pendants, he is here to sell jade pendants, you go and see." ”
Zuo Yucheng originally closed his eyes with his wrist on his forehead, but after being shaken by Zuo Sirou, he came to his senses, glanced at her, and stood up helplessly.
Ji Zhengkun was still eating, and when he saw that Zuo Yucheng was sober, he raised the pie in his hand: "Second brother, you can eat some." ”
"Eat, I'll go out and see. Zuo Yucheng didn't look at the pie like the dog that was bitten by Ji Zhengkun, and led Zuo Sirou out.
The old man was quite timid, but when he saw Ye Xiaochi, he immediately came in and said to Ye Xiaochi: "Girl, you are here." I, you also saw my jade pendant just now, is it true, can you help me tell me if I can accept it here?"
"Oh, it's you. Let Brother Dong take a look at your things. ”
The old man put his hand forward and looked at the fat boy earnestly. Dong Qing didn't know what was going on, and then Ye Xiaochi explained to him: "I saw him at the side door when I went out just now. He wants to sell jade pendants, you can take a look first. If you think it's appropriate, you can accept it, and forget it if it's not suitable. ”
Anyway, recently, the store only accepts high-quality products in principle, Ye Xiaochi didn't say much, and let Dong Qing decide for himself.
Dong Qing stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, looked at it, and saw Zuo Yucheng come out, and said to him, "Let me take a look." ”
What is the reason, how could Zuo Yucheng be interested in this thing? Dong Qing felt that it was true, but it was not good enough to alarm Zuo Yucheng, like this kind of ordinary goods were generally decided by himself, and there was no need to ask Zuo Yucheng.
Dong Qing thought for a moment that he was looking away and treating good things as ordinary goods.
"It's been more than a hundred years, Daqing, you can watch and collect it. After Zuo Yucheng finished speaking, he returned the jade pendant to Dong Qing, and then turned around and went back to the inner room. and told Zuo Sirou: "I'll take a break, don't call me if there's nothing important." ”
Zuo Sirou: "......" is actually true?! That means that Ye Xiaochi didn't look away. She couldn't figure it out, this person was five or six years older than her, how could she know if it was true or false?
Her father told her that playing antiques requires a lot of things to understand, just like walking a tightrope in the air. So her second brother was able to run the antique shop to the scale it is today, she didn't say anything, but she already admired it in her heart.
What is this Ye Xiaochi relying on? Zuo Sirou didn't know anything else, but she knew that five years later, when she was as old as Ye Xiaochi, she would definitely not have the ability to show his second brother the store.
She couldn't see through Ye Xiaochi, and it was quieter behind. After Ji Zhengkun finished eating, she drank another bottle of soda, she also cleaned up everything on the coffee table, and then wiped Ji Zhengkun's mouth.
The kid was the opposite of the cold Zuo Sirou, after eating and drinking, he slipped out of the room, walked to Ye Xiaochi's side, raised his head and said with big eyes: "Sister, the pie you bought is really delicious." ”
Ye Xiaochi just wanted to say that he was good, but Ji Zhengkun then asked, "Sister, where is the toilet......?"
