Chapter 106: Revealing White
Aunt Xiuhua smiled awkwardly when she saw the guarded appearance of the three of them, and then said: "I have an old object in my house, I have always suspected that it is an antique, or, Xiaoliu, you will go to my house to help me take a look?"
Zhou Peng instructed: "Little Liu, then you can go to your aunt's house to help your aunt take a look." ”
Zhou Xiaoliu blinked innocently, and said in his heart: I don't know any antiques at all, let me go and see them, wouldn't it be for me to talk nonsense again?
Lying is not a good boy! And lying, lying, or lying or something, is too much brain-wrenching.
Zhou Xiaoxian said softly: "You can bring the fat cat with you later." ”
Zhou Xiaoliu had no choice but to say "oh" and agreed.
Aunt Xiuhua closed the door of the store and led Zhou Xiaoliu to the house.
A white shadow suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, and Aunt Xiuhua was startled. She looked at it and saw that it was a white and chubby cat, and the cat was being held in Zhou Xiaoliu's arms at the moment.
Zhou Xiaoliu touched the white tiger that looked like a fat cat, and explained to Aunt Xiuhua: "This cat is my family, and it doesn't usually come out and walk around, and it's so fat that it's out of shape." ”
The white tiger was half angry by the sentence "fat enough", it bared its teeth at Zhou Xiaoliu's hand, but it didn't dare to bite down.
The old object of Aunt Xiuhua's house is a cup, and the scenery of mountains and streams and waterfalls carved outside the cup is carved again, Zhou Xiaoliu looked at it again and again, and then said to Aunt Xiuhua: "Auntie, can you pour me a glass of water?" By the way, take a flashlight, and I'll take a closer look." ”
When Aunt Xiuhua heard this, she immediately walked out of the room and went to pour water and get a flashlight.
Zhou Xiaoliu watched Aunt Xiuhua walk away, and then asked softly, "Is this an antique?"
The white tiger who looked like a fat cat said: "This is a rhino horn cup, but unfortunately it is a little deformed." ”
Zhou Xiaoliu asked, "How much can it be worth?"
The white tiger said, "How do I know this?" It has been in the underworld for hundreds of years, and it only came to the world four years ago. In the past four years, it has been staying in this shabby place with Zhou Xiaoliu, where does it know the price?
However, rhino horn is more precious than ivory, and even if it is a little deformed, it should be able to sell for some money.
Waiting for Aunt Xiuhua to bring a flashlight, Zhou Xiaoliu turned on the switch, learned from the two appraisal experts to look at the porcelain, and took the flashlight to the cup and shone it again, and after a long time, she said: "I am only sure of one thing, this is a rhino horn cup, and the rhino horn is the horn of a rare animal called rhinoceros." This cup is said to be worth a lot of money, but I don't know how much it's worth. ”
When Aunt Xiuhua heard the word "valuable", she laughed so much that she couldn't see her teeth.
When Zhou Xiaoliu said goodbye, Aunt Xiuhua pulled her and explained a few words: "Xiaoliu, don't tell me about this, if you go home and your sister and brother ask, you will say that this is a fake plastic cup." You keep it a secret for me, and I will keep it a secret for you, and I won't tell anyone the news of your family's wealth......"
Seeing that Zhou Xiaoliu nodded, Aunt Xiuhua let her go.
When Zhou Xiaoliu and Baihu arrived home, Zhou Xiaoxian had already prepared the meal neatly.
Zhou Xiaoxian served a plate of braised fish to Baihu alone, and then said to Zhou Xiaoliu, who had just sat down, "Eat." ”
After Baihu finished eating the braised fish, he raised his head and said, "Sure enough, the braised fish you made is the best, but it's a pity that there are too few!"
Zhou Xiaoxian was slapped by this sycophant, and then said briskly: "Tomorrow for the market day, I will go to the town to buy a few more fish." ”
Zhou Xiaoliu hurriedly said, "I want to eat meat!"
Zhou Xiaoxian responded: "Let's go together tomorrow, let's buy more food, celebrate well, and finally build a house." ”
……
Three days later, in the evening, Zhou Xiaoliu's parents and second sister finally rushed back.
Zhou Peng went to talk around Zhou's mother, Zhou Xiaoliu smiled at Zhou Xiaofang, and shouted: "Second sister!" Then, she nodded at the three people who came back and asked, "Second sister, didn't the eldest sister come back with you?"
Zhou Xiaofang touched her head and said, "The eldest sister was abducted by the eldest brother-in-law!"
As soon as Zhou's father arrived home, he asked Zhou Xiaoxian in a hurry, "Where is the money hidden?"
Zhou Xiaoxian dragged out a snakeskin bag from under the bed, put it in Zhou's father's hand, and said, "It's all here!"
Dad Zhou ripped open the cloth rope tied to the snakeskin bag, looked inside, and his eyes were dizzy. That's a lot of money!
Zhou's mother and Zhou Peng also entered the room, Zhou's mother glanced under the bed and asked, "You have put the money here for the past three days?"
"We don't have rats. Zhou Xiaoxian explained. Since the fat cat came, even the grandmother's chickens didn't dare to come to their door.
Zhou's father and Zhou's mother didn't have time to pour out the money and count it, and Grandpa Zhou's voice sounded outside the door.
Grandpa Zhou didn't know that several children had made a fortune, and when he heard the voices of his eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, he thought he was hallucinating.
He listened and listened, and although he couldn't hear the conversation next door, the voice was really that of the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law. So he knocked the ash from his bamboo pipe, pinned it behind his waist, and walked next door.
"Qingshan, are you back?" Grandpa Zhou shouted as he stepped out of his door.
"Yes, it's me back, Dad, come in and sit!" Dad Zhou hurriedly responded after hearing Grandpa Zhou's voice.
Zhou's mother pulled the snakeskin bag in Zhou's father's hand, threw it under the bed, and kicked it in with her foot.
"You ......" Zhou's father said you, Zhou's mother glared at him, and said softly: "Is the house still built?"
"Come out and talk, the door is spacious. "Grandpa Zhou didn't want to go in. Zhou Xiaoliu's house was too crowded, and if he was not careful when he turned around, he would be knocked by the corners of those tables and chairs.
Dad Zhou walked out of the room in shame and shouted, "Dad!"
He looked at his old father's gray hair, tears flashed in his eyes, and he said in his heart: This time I have money, I must honor you well!
Zhou Xiaoliu never entered the door, but stood by the pillar with Zhou Xiaofang, listening to Zhou Xiaofang tell how her eldest sister was abducted by the so-called eldest brother-in-law.
When Zhou's father called Grandpa Zhou, Zhou Xiaoliu turned her head and glanced at him, she saw that Zhou's father looked like he was going to cry or not, and sighed in her heart: Dad will definitely tell Grandpa about 200,000 yuan, and I don't know if his new house can be built in the end.
Grandpa Zhou looked at the three people who had returned carefully, and his complexion was very normal, not like he was sick. So what are they coming back for now?
Grandpa Zhou suddenly remembered Jin Honglai, who lived in the second son's room, Jin Honglai came inexplicably, it was only a few days apart, and the eldest son came back again, could it be that in the middle......
Grandpa Zhou looked at Zhou's father with concern and asked, "Why did you come back at this time? Are you not feeling well? If you are not feeling well, you can't delay, you have to go to the hospital quickly, Dad has more than 1,000 yuan here......" As he spoke, Grandpa Zhou made a gesture of digging money into his jacket pocket.
Seeing that Grandpa Zhou thought that he was unwell and wanted to pay for his own medical treatment, Dad Zhou was moved. He hurriedly explained: "Dad, don't worry, I didn't come back when I was sick, I got rich." ”
Grandpa Zhou's eyes flashed, and sure enough, it was so.
Dad Zhou helped Grandpa Zhou into the door, then ignored the eye knife that Mom Zhou shot at him, and directly bent down and dragged the snakeskin bag out from under the bed.
He pointed to the snakeskin bag and said to Grandpa Zhou: "Dad, look, this is all money!" As he spoke, he flicked the mouth of the bag, and stacks of hundred-yuan bills were exposed in front of Grandpa Zhou's eyes.
Zhou Peng stroked his forehead and said in his heart: "Dad, Dad, why don't you wait for our house to have a shadow before revealing your money!"
