When she got up, she accidentally kicked something, and Xue Wu saw that it was a wooden delicate ball, which made a crisp and pleasant jingle as it rolled.

Linglong ball is a very common toy here, delicate and valuable with jade carved and crafted, the sphere can reach nine layers, it is for nine turns of Linglong ball, thin as cicada wings, each layer can be rotated, the thing in the heart of the ball is not necessarily a bell, it may also be a sachet, jade ball, etc., extremely gorgeous and exquisite.

The ordinary one, like the one in front of me, is made of wood, and the bell inside is just a small copper bell, which rusts after a long time.

She picked up the delicate ball.

The moment I touched it, my palms were hot again!

Xue Wu almost couldn't help but exclaim, she didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary exquisite ball was actually contaminated with purple qi!

Wait, this delicate ball doesn't seem to be simple!

At first glance, it looks like it is made of ordinary wood, but when you brush away the dust on the surface, you will find that the texture of the wood is very beautiful and delicate, and it is clearly a sea willow!

If it weren't for the fact that her grandfather had a string of sea willow beads in her previous life, she would have seen it many times, and she had even touched it, but she still couldn't recognize it.

When I heard the name, I thought it was a willow tree that grew in the sea, but in fact it was not, it was actually a coelenterate, a coral family, just because it grew into a dendritic tree, the branches were slender, the texture was flexible, and the appearance was similar to the willow trees on land, so there was such a name as sea willow.

This creature has a lifespan of up to 1,000 years, and after being carved into an object, it does not decay by seepage and does not damage fire, so it is also called the sacred tree under the sea.

There is a saying that gold and jade are precious, but sea willows are hard to find. It's about the preciousness of things like sea willows.

At this moment, Xue Wu was even more sure that this exquisite ball was from the royal family, otherwise it would be an ordinary rich and noble family, and they would never use the rare and hard-to-find sea willow to carve into children's toys.

This grocery store is really not simple.

"Sister, did you find it?" Xue Yao walked over.

At this time, a ball of purple qi was emerging on the surface of the delicate ball in Xue Yao's hand, which was absorbed by the Five Elements Bead, and she was shocked when she heard Xue Yao's voice, and subconsciously closed her hand, who knew that there was still some purple qi escaping from the outside.

She looked at Xue Yao, but saw that his expression had not changed, and her heart moved, could it be that only she could see this purple qi?

To verify, she spread her palms out, "Look at this delicate ball." ”

Xue Yao didn't know why, "What's wrong?" ”

It seems that he really can't see it, otherwise the reaction wouldn't be so bland.

Xue Wu smiled, "How about buying it back for Jun'er to play with?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xue Yao has always loved his sister Xue Jun, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sister control, as soon as she gets something good, she will come to her to offer treasures, and when she heard that Xue Jun wanted to buy toys for Xue Jun, she was even happier than if she got a toy.

However, Xue Wu naturally did not favor one over the other, gave him the bowl with seeds, and walked around in front of the two shelves, touching everything, and finally lived up to her expectations, and really asked her to find an object containing purple gas.

It is a wood-carved villain, to be precise, a rudimentary puppet, which can be rotated everywhere in the body, and can also be disassembled, which is really exquisite!

"Like it? This one bought you? She asked Xue Yao.

Xue Yao shook his head sensibly, "No need sister, I'm so old, where do I still need to play with such children's things." ”

said so, but the look in his eyes was clearly not like this.

Xue Yao had already made up her mind to buy it, but she was going to surprise Xue Yao, and she happened to hear someone outside selling sugar gourds, so she took a few dollars to him: "Go buy sugar gourds to eat, buy four strings." ”

Xue Yao went happily.

Xue Wu brought the three things to the counter, "Boss, how much are these three?" ”

Zhou Ao glanced at it and quoted: "One hundred taels, take it." ”

One hundred taels!

If others heard this price, they should think that this old man was a lion's mouth, and if he had done business before, then it would be no wonder that there were no customers here, probably because they were frightened by the prices that were much higher than elsewhere.

However, Xue Wu, who knew the inside story, understood that if she bought three such three objects containing purple qi for one hundred taels, she would still make a lot of money.

If nothing else, the sea willow ball alone is worth the price.

However, the old man offered such a price, could it be that he knew that these three things came from an extraordinary background? But if you really know, the price must be more than one hundred taels.

Xue Wu glanced at him, and felt more and more that this old man was not ordinary, could it be that he was a master from somewhere? Opening a grocery store with some special purpose?

Her mind drifted out of the way.

Seeing that Xue Yao came back with the sugar gourd, she didn't care about bargaining, so she directly took out a hundred taels and handed it to him, put the things away, and walked towards Xue Yao.

"I've bought something, let's go back."

"Okay, sister, this string is for you."

Xue Wu took the red and bright sugar gourd, and felt a little weight as soon as she started it, the people of this era are really simple, the sugar gourd is very real, counted, there are nine of them, each of them is full and in good condition, and it is sweet and sour to eat.

It was much better than anything she had ever tasted before.

Happily biting on the sugar gourd, Xue Yao took Xue Yao to buy some meat and vegetables.

The meat on the butcher stall has been sold almost completely, except for some ribs and water, as well as the less fatty parts of pig's trotters.

At this time, people like to buy fatty meat to eat, and fatty meat can be refined into oil, and it is really good to eat it. After all, most people's living standards are not high, and it is rare to see meat several times a year.

But Xue Wu, who came from modern times, is like most people, she has no love for fatty meat, but prefers ribs and tube bones with meat.

She bought several catties at a very cheap price, and the stall owner also gave her a piece of pork liver.

Xue Yao saw that all she bought was bones, so he pulled her sleeve: "Sister, these are not meaty." ”

Xue Wan: "Don't worry, you will definitely love to eat when the time comes." ”

Seeing her like this, Xue Yao didn't say anything anymore.

The siblings returned with a full load.

At home, Mother Xue has already steamed the rice, and she is waiting for the sisters and brothers to come back and stir-fry.

The neighbor's aunt came over with a bowl and chatted with Xue's mother while eating.

People in the countryside don't talk about any rules, they like to get together to chat and gossip when they eat, and a lot of gossip spreads in this way.

Seeing Mother Xue embroidering under the eaves, the fat aunt walked over and brought a small bench to sit down, "Hui Niang, do you know?" Your mother-in-law has been robbed. ”

There was a little schadenfreude on his face.

The fat aunt is generous and kind, and she gets along well with Xue's mother, and she helped stop Qian Dazhi when she came to rob people, and she is very unaccustomed to Mrs. Xue's style, and when she sees her family unlucky, she can't help but be happy for Xue's mother.

"When I woke up in the morning, it was a big fuss, saying that the family's money and valuable things were gone. If you want me to say, yes! ”

Mother Xue was a little stunned when she heard this, her mother-in-law stole money from her house, but she turned around and was stolen by thieves, should she say that this is retribution?

At this moment, Sister Xue came back.
