Chapter 008 Buddha Beads

Siniang Lu Rui gave Lu Luo a gift, but Qi Niang came to complain, it was collusion, Lu Luo thought.

Lu Luo remained silent, like everyone else, looking at Qi Niang curiously, wondering what Qi Niang was going to say next.

There was a sudden silence in the flower hall.

The warm night breeze blew in quietly, delicate and soft, stirring the candle flame. The candle flame flickered on and off, and Qi Niang's immature cheeks were ruddy and white, but they were full of grievances.

"That's the silk handkerchief that Mrs. Song family appreciated to the fourth sister, and it was said that it was made of silk silk, which was the most precious. When I asked the fourth sister for a long time, she promised me, but she quietly gave it to the fifth sister. Qi Niang was about to cry, and said to Lu Qijun.

Lu Qijun is very eccentric and dislikes his daughter in every possible way; But he was very patient with his favorite daughter.

Qi Niang is a favored daughter, so Lu Qijun listened to her complaints with a smile.

As soon as Qi Niang's words fell, Si Niang got up with a smile and said, "Daddy, Seventh Sister is cheating again, and my daughter has never agreed to give it to her." That piece of silk handkerchief is extremely precious, how can she be cheap? ”

When Lu Luo heard this, he fully understood in his heart.

An ordinary silk handkerchief, Siniang and Qiniang are said to be the most famous "Wangya silk" in the world, which is nothing more than wanting to get valuable gifts from Lu Luo.

With a silk handkerchief that is not worth a few pennies, he exchanged it for expensive jewelry from Lu Luo, and his calculations were very accurate.

"The fourth sister lied, you obviously agreed." Qi Niang does not give up.

Everyone else looked at them and then at Lu Luo.

They all looked at the flowers in a fog, and only the eldest aunt Jane knew what was going on.

Qi Niang said that their piece of silk handkerchief was given by Mrs. Song. Since it was given by Mrs. Song, it is not a precious thing. The Song family is also a poor Beijing official, and Mrs. Song always comes to the Lu family to fight the autumn breeze.

Mrs. Song is so picky, can she have good things to reward Siniang? Stop dreaming.

This is the bureau of the sisters Siniang and Qiniang, and they have to calculate Wuniang Luluo.

"It's none of my business" Although the aunt understands, she won't break it.

"Rui'er, how can you promise Qian'er and give it to Wu Niang?" Lu Qijun saw that Qi Niang was about to cry, so he said to Si Niang, "Otherwise, you can change something and give it to Wu Niang, and ask for that silk handkerchief back." Since you promised Qian'er first, you should keep your word! ”

When he called the daughters of the second aunt, they all called their milk names, and when he arrived at Lu Luo, he only remembered Lu Luo's ranking, and it was estimated that he didn't know which word Lu Luo's boudoir name was.

This is her father

At this moment, Lu Luo was also a little embarrassed in his heart. She had heard of some eccentric parents, but she had really encountered them herself, and it was a little uncomfortable.

"Dad, seventh sister, she is just talking nonsense, and her daughter didn't promise to give it to her." Siniang still doesn't admit it.

"Fourth sister is bad." Qi Niang burst into tears, but her eyes were dripping, "Daddy, my daughter doesn't have to ask for it back." Since the fourth sister gave it to the fifth sister, let's give it to the fifth sister. When the fifth sister has good things in the future, she will give it to me! ”

Lu Qijun nodded with satisfaction: "This is sensible!" ”

Then, he set his eyes on Lu Luo.

Lu Luo didn't say anything at this time, he seemed too childish, and he was completely put together by Siniang and Qiniang.

"I really don't know." Lu Luo was a little embarrassed, "I took the good of the seventh sister, I have a good thing, which is more precious than Wangya silk, give it to the seventh sister." ”

Lu Luo can't say that he returned the silk handkerchief to Qi Niang, because Si Niang didn't admit it, and if he returned it, he would slap Si Niang in the face, so that Si Niang would bear the reputation of one thing and two promises, and Si Niang and his father would be unhappy.

And Qi Niang kept saying that she was humble, as a sister, Lu Luo was completely indifferent, and everyone else would think that Lu Luo was a little childish and had never seen good things.

Lu Luo didn't care what others thought of her, but when she could fight back, she still had to fight back to deter others.

"I like the jade bracelet of the fifth sister" Qi Niang is innocent and coquettish, and she said to Lu Luo with a coquettishness.

Lu Luo has a jade bracelet, which is the best green jadeite. Lu Luo met by chance, so he bought two for 10,000 taels, one for her and Wen's.

Wen didn't like to wear it, so he put it in his hometown in Huzhou and didn't bring it with him, but Lu Luo liked it very much.

Lu Luo always wears it.

The snow-like wrist, pressed with the bright green jade, is very beautiful. Wen originally wanted to scold her, a bracelet of five thousand taels can buy hundreds of acres of fertile land in Huzhou Mansion, which is too luxurious. Later, when he saw that Lu Luo was indeed very good, and Lu Luo was rich, Wen didn't say much.

When he arrived in the capital, when Lu Luo had dinner for the first time, he saw the eldest aunt and them, all staring at her bracelet, and immediately hid it in her sleeve.

After that, Lu Luo didn't wear it anymore, took it off and put it in the box.

Now, Qi Niang has asked for it.

The bracelet of five thousand taels of silver is worthy of Lu Qijun's six or seven years of money, Qi Niang opened this mouth, and Lu Luo really wanted to laugh.

"Fifth sister has something better for you, I'll go back to the room to get it." Lu Luo said with a smile.

She got up and went back to her room.

Wen was talking to the maids, and suddenly saw Lu Luo coming back, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Finished eating so soon?" ”

"It's not." Lu Luo smiled.

She briefly told Wen about the matter, and the maids and mothers-in-law also heard it.

"It's too much! This is a bracelet that has taken a fancy to the girl for a long time, and it is such an idea, and it is blackhearted! When the big girl heard this, she was half angry.

"It's okay, I happen to have something for her." Lu Luo said with a smile.

She turned around and went back to the room, and after a while, she took out a sachet and a silk handkerchief given to her by Siniang.

"I'll see." Wen took Lu Luo's sachet and opened it to see that it was a string of beads.

This kind of bead looks a lot like rosewood, but if you look closely, it is actually a very cheap red sour branch.

Half a month ago, Lu Luo took her maid to a temple fair, and saw that this kind of beads were sold, twenty wen a string.

At that time, Lu Luo remembered Shi Ting's words: "The beads of the red sour branch can easily emerge into rosewood beads." Buy it back and carefully trace a layer of line, and then roll on some ink, wipe it after it is dry, and take it out to deceive people that it is rosewood, and a deception is accurate! ”

Shi Ting is a friend of Lu Luo's magic stick master Qianyan, who is even more divine than her master, and often claims to have lived for two hundred years, but in fact he is a twenty-four or five-year-old man, with no family, no fixed residence, full of nonsense, and no serious business.

However, Shi Ting is good-looking, and his medical skills are particularly good, Lu Luo feels that he should know a few doctors with good medical skills, who can save lives at critical moments, so he has some dealings with Shi Ting.

Shi Ting also said that Lu Luo's magic master Qianyan also lived for two hundred years, and his skills were superb, he knew the past and the present, could open the eyes of heaven to predict the future, calculate the past, and saved Shi Ting's life.

This kind of nonsense, Lu Luo has always gone in and out of her left ear, she told her master's fortune, but she didn't calculate anything. Her master is a magic stick, just forget it, the warlock is quite good at abduction.

However, Shi Ting knows a lot of interesting things, a lot of unpopular tricks, such as how to use red acid branches to pass off as rosewood, etc., although it is useless.

Lu Luo had just been in Beijing at that time, and he was quite bored, thinking of Shi Ting's words, he also wanted to try it, so he spent twenty yuan to buy the string of beads.

After buying it back, Lu Luo engraved the Sanskrit version of the scriptures on fourteen beads, and then concocted it into fake rosewood according to the method of the stone garden.

It didn't take much effort, it was just to play the glow yin.

Lu Luo looked at it and thought it was quite similar.

"What are you doing with these beads?" Wen picked up the beads, looked left and right, and asked Lu Luo, "This is a rosewood bead, how many taels of silver did you buy it?" ”

Wen also thought it was rosewood, indicating that Lu Luoqian was quite similar.

"Fifteen hundred taels!" Lu Luo Road.

Wen frowned, she didn't believe that rosewood beads couldn't be sold at such a high price.

"Mother, you see this scripture, it was carved by Master Faxian, a senior monk in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This string of beads is also played with by him, so it is heavier."

"Nonsense." Wen's laughter is incomprehensible.

Lu Luo also smiled.

She took this string of beads, and went to the flower hall with the silk handkerchief given to her by Siniang.

Night had fallen, the blue sky had turned blue-gray, and the trees in the courtyard were shadowed and ghostly dancing.

When they arrived at the flower hall, it was already time to eat, and they were all eating, and they didn't wait for Lu Luo.

However, Lu Luo came in, and everyone stopped their chopsticks.

Qi Niang immediately stood up and greeted Lu Luo with a smile. She is very thick-skinned and has peace of mind when she asks for something.

"Fifth sister, what good things do you want to give me?" It's just that Qi Niang is young, and her philistine and greed are hidden by Jiaohan, which is not so obvious.

"Oh, here's for you!" Lu Luo said with a smile.

Qi Niang couldn't wait to open the purse.

As soon as she saw that it was a bead, Qi Niang's little face immediately collapsed.

She wanted to throw the purse to Lu Luo, but she didn't want to, but Lu Luo explained: "Seventh sister, don't dislike it, this bead was bought by the ancestor for 1,500 taels." You see, it's all scriptures.

When I just arrived in Huzhou Mansion, my body was weak, and the Taoist priest said that I was light and easy to hit customers, so my ancestors turned around and bought this treasure for me, so that I could take it with me. ”

There was silence in the flower hall.

Everyone listened to the phrase "1,500 taels bought".

Such a string of beads, so expensive?

"Really?" Qi Niang will also be skeptical.

"It's true. The scriptures on this are the authentic writings of the Eastern Jin Dynasty monk Master Faxian, which has been circulated to Huzhou Mansion. At that time, many people heard the news and wanted to buy it, but the ancestors bought it. Lu Luo said seriously.

She seems to be right.

There is indeed such a monk in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Lu Luo has also seen the authentic handiwork of the high monk, which she copied according to her memory, not very similar, but somewhat true.

"I'll take a look" Lu Qijun's heart also moved slightly.

If you sell it, you can exchange it for a thousand taels of silver, and you can live freely for a while.

Qi Niang didn't dare to disobey, and obediently gave the beads to Lu Qijun.

Lu Qijun doesn't know how to appreciate antiques, and sees that this bead looks like red sandalwood, but it is relatively heavy, with some red marks, as if it has been played with for a long time, very much like antique red sandalwood!

"Then you can take it!" Lu Qijun returned it to Qi Niang, wanting to make Qi Niang happy and happy, and play for a few days first. After a few days, he took it out and sold it again.

Qi Niang took it and thanked Lu Luo happily: "Let the fifth sister break the bank." ”

Siniang picked up the teacup, took a slight sip, and thought: "A silk handkerchief of less than 30 yuan is exchanged for 1,500 taels of Buddha beads, which is really worth it." ”

"I'm really strategic, and I'm smart." Siniang was very proud in her heart.

In this play, Siniang did not participate in half a point, but smoothly knocked Lu Luo, which made Siniang feel very fulfilled.

The second aunt Ming's is also in a good mood, and she also knows that Siniang used an ordinary silk handkerchief to pretend to be "Wangya Silk", and exchanged more than 1,000 taels of Buddha beads from the stupid Lu Luo.

Besides, even if it is really Wangya silk, the amount of a silk handkerchief is worth a dozen taels of silver at most.

"Lu Luo is really stupid." Ming thought to himself.

"I thought, everyone must be like me, I haven't seen the mysterious Wangaya, so I don't dare to hide it. I'll take it out for everyone to see, and it's all a feast for the eyes," Lu Luo said again.

She took out the silk handkerchief that Siniang gave her.

The crowd immediately stretched out their heads.

Siniang, Wen's and Qiniang's faces changed. Lu Luo and Wen don't know each other, and the others may not know how to count. Especially the eldest aunt and the third aunt.

Siniang Lu Rui's face immediately turned slightly pale.
