Chapter 448: A Little Matter in the Library
Chapter 448: Minor Matters in the Library
The water essence stones that Yu Shu got from the boss of Haishang Liang are all specially selected natural crystals, with different shapes, some like clusters of coral, and some are like condensed ice cubes.
The unpolished spars seem to be covered with a veil, not revealing their due beauty, but the watery hue is very unique.
Boss Liang had already heard of Yu Shu's name, and he wanted to make friends with her, and under Pei Jing's agreement, he sold more than ten pieces of water essence to her for six hundred taels, and gave her a small box of pearls to play with.
Yu Shu returned satisfied, and then she had to find a skilled craftsman, thinking about creating a few crystal jewelry first.
There are a wide range of merchants, Pei Jing really knows a master who can carve this water spirit, but he is not sure if people are willing to help, so in the afternoon of the same day, he led Yu Shu to the south of the city to visit the master Xu.
When Master Xu heard that they were coming, he was not enthusiastic, and he seemed reluctant to waste time pondering these worthless "broken stones" in Yu Shu's hands.
Pei Jinghao said that the old man Xu just refused to let go, Yu Shu looked at the few jade toys on the eight-treasure shelf against the wall in the living room, and took a closer look, the jade quality was not good, but all of them were unique and ingenious, and she was very moved, and then looked back at the stubborn old master, and after a few blinks of work, she had an idea.
"Could it be that there are patients in Master Xu's house?" Yu Shu suddenly interrupted, and Pei Jing and Old Man Xu, who were talking, turned their heads to look at her together.
Old man Xu was suspicious: "My grandson Ah Fu caught a cold a few days ago, where did the girl know?" ”
Yu Shu didn't hurry to answer, raised his legs and walked around the living room, and walked outside the house, Old Man Xu became more and more suspicious, and also got up and walked out, Pei Jing secretly guessed that Yu Shu wanted to play tricks, so he followed.
Old man Xu's house is not big, the courtyard of the two entrances, the front three rooms, a few pots of flowers under the eaves, a well in the southwest corner, there is an iron tree growing by the well, green needles, growing to waist height.
Yu Shu stood beside the iron tree, pinched the leaves that pricked his hands, turned back to the old man Xu and said: "I see that your house has proper feng shui, it was originally an IKEA appearance, and this fire-sheltering banana does have a good omen for the continuation of children and grandchildren, but this well is the eye of the house, and it is rushing to such a prosperous thing, so it blocks the yin blessing of your ancestors. ”
Old man Xu's face changed, and he said in disbelief: "Girl, don't talk nonsense, this pot of fire-sheltering bananas was specially bought by Mr. Yi Guan a month ago and put it there, how did it get into your mouth and become a scourge?" ”
Yu Shu was not in a hurry to argue, only smiled: "Coincidentally, I am also a Yi Shi, this year Dayan has just won a fame, if Master Xu doesn't believe me, can you deliver Ling Sun's eight characters and wait for me to calculate it?" ”
Old man Xu is the most precious to his grandson, thinking about it, he would rather believe it, so he asked people to prepare a pen and paper, Yu Shu got the eight characters of his birthday, and immediately waved his pen to calculate forward, accurately pointing out the days when Xu Afu was sick, even the child was cold because of the rain, and it was clear that he said it clearly.
The words were convincing, and the old man Xu didn't believe it, so Pei Jing spoke at this time: "Master Xu believes in the gentleman in the Yi Pavilion, but it is better to listen to my niece, she, a serious Xiuyuan master, is she still afraid of coaxing you?" ”
This time he explained Yu Shu's way of coming, and Old Man Xu did not hesitate at all, and immediately recruited two apprentices, and under Yu Shu's guidance, carried the iron tree by the well to the backyard.
Let's talk about business again, what else is the old man Xu reluctant, after the last Yu Shu left a small piece of water essence of each color, and set the style, the old man Xu didn't even confiscate the deposit, and only let her take it a month later.
Yu Shu didn't want to wait so long, and after asking clearly, he told Old Man Xu that he would let him cut two strings of beads first, and then take them five days later.
At dusk, Yu Shu and Pei Jing were sent out of the gate by Old Man Xu and sat in the car, Pei Jing couldn't help but sigh:
"Your ability to learn is getting bigger and bigger, just look at the house and know that they have patients at home."
Yu Shu said with a smile: "Ha Lu, where do I have such good eyesight, but the tip of my nose is just the tip of my nose, and I smell a little medicine when I enter the door, so I dare to deceive him." ”
Old man Xu stayed at home, and naturally didn't feel that when she smelled it, she used to carry a medicine jar by her side, decocting medicine every day, and she was more sensitive to the smell of medicine than ordinary people.
"Huh? Then you said that the pot of fire-sheltering bananas is also fake? ”
"It's true, that thing is really wrong, if I don't point it out, his children will suffer a few more times." Yu Shu is colorful.
"That's good," Pei Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but say a little bit: "Nowadays, the world is declining, and there are always some people who do not follow the right path, but rely on a little ability, so they swagger and deceive." It seems that the Ji family colluded with others to make a fake life sign, insisting that you are a godmother, and her family property was occupied and she lived on the streets, so she didn't lose her life. ”
Yu Shu nodded, "The forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, I can't control others and myself." ”
Back in the Wangji Building, Yu Shu stored the remaining more than ten catties of crystals in the study, packed them in a solid wood box, and temporarily placed them in a cool place.
Xue Rui didn't come back for dinner in the evening, so he sent Lao Cui to deliver a letter, saying that he had something to go back to Xue Mansion tonight and might not be able to come back tonight.
Yu Shu saw Xue Rui's fake note, shook his head and smiled, unknowingly living in the Wangji Building for almost a month, both of them almost regarded this place as home, except for going up and down the stairs and not living in the same room, they lived the same life almost the same.
The cases in Dali Temple are about to be transcribed completely, she thought about it, she will be able to go home in the next two days, without further ado, she will talk to Xue Rui tomorrow, pack up her things and go home.
At the end of the month, there was a lecture on Sima Kui's astrology, and Yu Shuhui worshiped two academicians in the Taishi Academy, not to mention Fang Zijing, Academician Sima only had three classes a month.
Before the Dali Temple investigated the case and sealed the stargazing platform, Academician Sima simply suspended the class, and it was not until Ji Xingxuan was arrested and put in prison that he resumed lecturing.
Not counting the entrance visit, Yu Shu came to Sima Kui's class on the first day today, and he was in the garden of the stargazing platform to identify the instrument, and saw one or two familiar faces, and unexpectedly Xin Liu also came.
"Lotus Room!" As soon as Xin Liu saw Yu Shu, he left the girl who was talking, ran up to hold her arm, pouted and said coquettishly, "I thought you wouldn't be here today." ”
Yu Shu saw that her complexion was very good, and her face became round again, so she couldn't help but reach out and pinch it, and said, "Are you so neat?" ”
Xin Liu covered his face and nodded, his eyes turned around, tiptoed close to her ear holes, and whispered: "Do you know the truth, Ji Xingxuan died in prison, I heard that he couldn't stand the torture, and he was hanged for fear of crime." ”
Yu Shu turned his head to look at her, and Xin Liuxiao's face was not gloating, but some sympathy.
"I know what your family said, do you still have to investigate the fact that she wants to kill you?"
Ji Xingxuan is gone, but the Ji family is still there, Ji Huaishan has three sons, Yu Shu didn't make any special inquiries about the news, but he also knew that after Ji Huaishan bit his tongue and committed suicide in the court, Si Tianjian seemed to come forward to protect his whole body, and asked the Ji family to send someone to send the coffin back to Yiyang's hometown.
So Ji Xingxuan stayed in the capital alone, and had to take refuge in King Ning, but there was not even an elder around him who spoke red and white.
Xin Liudao: "Everyone is dead, and his Ji family is also defeated, and he doesn't even have a gate, where to go to investigate." The ancestor of my family spoke, even if this matter is over, it is the Cao family who is unlucky, and I still don't know who Ji Xingxuan found to harm Cao Youling's life. ”
Ji Xingxuan was "dead", and he was identified as the mastermind of Cao Youling's murder case, and was characterized as buying a murderer, but the killer who strangled Cao Youling on the stargazing platform that night was nowhere to be found.
Academician Sima didn't arrive, Yu Shu and Xin Liu were standing next to a sundial platform chatting, suddenly there was a burst of loud laughter from the south, and more than a dozen people standing under the stargazing platform turned their heads, and saw a group of three or four young people walking not far away, including men and women, among whom was a girl in a pink shirt, with willow eyebrows, a nose, a pair of peach buns, and a thin gold collar around her neck, bright and shining, piercing eyes.
Xin Liu poked Yu Shu, raised his chin at the girl, and asked, "Who is this person?" ”
Miss Gongzi of the Yixue family in Anling City has no one that Xin Liu doesn't recognize, this new face, she is estimated to be from outside.
Yu Shu thought about it for a while and said, "It seems to be from a Jiangxi family, surnamed Zhan." ”
Xin Liu frowned, "That Zhan family of Tianyu Feng Shui." ”
Yu Shu was curious: "What Tianyu Feng Shui?" ”
Xin Liu was about to explain, when he saw the group of people walking straight towards the two of them.
"The female operator is polite." Zhan Xueyuan took the lead in saluting Yu Shu, and accompanied a few people to slow down for half a beat, aiming at Yu Shu, and came up to see him one by one.
Yu Shu nodded at them, a little puzzled, didn't this Miss Zhan learn star art under Jing Chen's name, how did she get into Sima Kui's class?
"I saw Yu Operator in Rongsheng Hall a few days ago, and before I could greet you, you left, and I hope that Operator will not blame me for being rude at that time." Zhan Xueyuan smiled at Yu Shu, on the surface, he was polite and distant, but in fact, his words were a little tricky, this was obviously still remembering the strange murder On the afternoon of the murder, the female student under Jing Chen's name was summoned to the small building for questioning, and Yu Shu gave the one at that time.
Yu Shu raised her eyebrows, looked at the yellow-haired girl in front of her, and was too lazy to pick thorns, so she didn't pick the stubble.
Zhan Xueyuan was bored, so he turned his head to talk to Xin Liu: "This is Miss Xin Liu, I heard that you were sick when you entered school, are you feeling better now?" ”
Xin Liu smiled at the other party, nodded, but didn't speak, she was a good-eyed person, and she could see that Yu Shu didn't want to see Zhan Xueyuan, of course she wouldn't be close to her.
Zhan Xueyuan touched another soft nail, and his smile was a little unbearable, so he went to the other side with a few companions.
As soon as the person left, Xin Liu wrinkled his nose and said to Yu Shu: "Another one with eyes on her head, how did you know her?" ”
Yu Shu told her that after she fell into a coma that night, she stayed on the stargazing platform for the night, and told her about the case and questioning in Dali Temple the next day.
After hearing this, Xin Liu glanced at Zhan Xueyuan who was not far away, and said strangely: "Then isn't she a student of Academician Jing, why did she come here to join in the fun?" ”
Yu Shu snorted: "I know where I am." (To be continued.)
