Thousand Knots: Chapter 63: The Strange Ring

() "You!" A thin layer of anger floated in Cangyang's eyes, "Which department are you from?" ”

"I don't want to tell you."

"Don't you dare, you're afraid that others will laugh at you, right? This place is only accessible to people who have failed the college entrance examination. To put it bluntly, it is a scumbag distribution center. ”

"You're right, I'm a scumbag. So what? Am I getting in your way? ”

Old Gyatso secretly snickered: Okay, this time it's a chess opponent!

Xiao Duxue secretly complained: Yes, this old man is happy to watch the show.

"It's not that it's in my way. I just hate you Han Chinese. I don't like it here, but I still want to come. Hypocrisy! You Han people like to do things against your will. ”

"According to you, there is nothing that the Tibetans hate anymore? Not really. I am afraid that the Tibetans who fight bravely and fiercely are not very pleasant. ”

"Those who say that we are brave and ruthless are all prejudices, we like to speak with strength, and we are passionate and sincere."

"Then you say that the hypocrisy of the Han people is not prejudice? Besides, how can fighting with enthusiasm and sincerity be confused? I can't listen to different opinions, and I will do it if I don't agree with each other, may I ask what kind of sincerity is this? According to your logic, we disagree now, so can I beat you up? And you can't say that I'm unreasonable, and you have to praise me for being enthusiastic and sincere? ”

Cangyang is stopped.

Xiao Duxue smiled coldly: "It can be seen that looking at people can't be too one-sided, and the standards can't be dualized." If you want others to respect you, you must first learn to respect others and learn not to make irresponsible remarks about others. Because at the end of the day, you don't know what kind of environment the kids who come here are going to grow up in. Comfortable? Or is it bad? You don't know what they're going through. Happy? Or is it painful? You are an outsider, a spectator, what qualifications do you have to dictate other people's lives! ”

Cang Yang was choked and his face turned blue.

Marshmallow followed Zhuoma upstairs, and Xiao Duxue beckoned Fu Xuefeng to follow. As soon as she ascended the stairs, she stopped and smiled harmlessly: "I want to tell you again now." I am from the English Department and have a score of 635 in the college entrance examination. Please advise. ”

Cangyang was shocked: "635 points? Are you here? ”

"I can come if I want. It is true that this school is not as illustrious as a prestigious university, but it is not as unbearable as the legend says: although it is located on the border, it has its own style and historical heritage, and the air is even more first-class, which I quite like! ”

"With such a high score coming here, you're not in your right mind?"

"It's not normal. However, I don't lose either. If I hadn't been in my right mind, I wouldn't have come here, and if I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have had a chance to meet you, and I wouldn't have known if I hadn't had a chance to meet you: it's almost the 21st century, and there are people like you who are old-fashioned. I have to thank my abnormal brain, and thank you for opening my eyes. ”

Cang Yang jumped to his feet in anger.

Xiao Duxue saw the opportunity quickly: "A gentleman doesn't move his mouth, and a good man doesn't fight with a woman." Uh, are you a good Tibetan youth? Yes, right? Don't be angry. We have a truce. ”

Cangyang was so annoyed that he kicked the bicycle tires desperately.

Xiao Duxue ran up to the attic and helped clean up the room.

Dolma patted her thigh and laughed for a while before she began to make the bed.

"Auntie, why are you happy like this?"

"Cangyang is so big, it's the first time he has lost a verbal battle. There should be someone who frustrates his spirit, lest he be vigorous all day long. ”

"Bickering is not my intention. I just heard my grandfather say that he was not easy to get along with, so I will

I want him to hate me completely, and from now on the river water will not interfere with the well water. Don't mind what I say. ”

Dolma smiled and waved his hand, quickly put the room away, and moved all the things he didn't need to the door: "I don't need your help here." If you're all right, go out on the street and see if there's anything you want to buy. Again, you don't need to buy daily necessities, you have them at home. You just need to buy some clothes. ”

Xiao Duxue saw that she really couldn't intervene, and after all, she was still a child, so she thanked Zhuoma and pulled Fu Xuefeng to the street. The two of them just didn't buy it while they were walking, they were just hanging out.

The silversmith shopkeeper looked at her and greeted her with a smile on his face: "Girl, do you want to buy jewelry?" Come to my house and have a look, whether it's for giving away or for personal use, it's all excellent. ”

Probably think of me as a tourist! Xiao Duxue didn't explain, flipped through the jewelry box, picked up a carved bracelet and asked, "How much is this?" ”

"I'll see. Oh, girl, you have such a good eye! This bracelet is a few years old, and the color and handiwork are rare. Wear it on a young and beautiful girl like you, and it will find its owner! Of course, this thing is good, and the price will naturally be more expensive. If the girl buys sincerely, I will sell it sincerely, and I will give you a cheaper price at a loss. ”

Xiao Duxue didn't understand jewelry at all, but she only asked when she saw that the bracelet was suitable for Su Wanyan. Hearing what the other party said, I really had the idea of buying: "How much cheaper can it be?" ”

"If you sell this thing to someone else, you will get at least six hundred dollars. The girl and I have an eye for each other, and I'll give you a 20% discount. ”

"Huh? So expensive! Sorry, I can't afford it. ”

"That's too expensive!" The boss sighed at the bracelet, straightened his sleeves and rubbed back and forth, "Look at this gloss, can you see a human figure?" Try this feel again, is it slippery? And this weight, if you look at it, it is definitely enough gold! ”

Xiao Duxue was moved: "If you are cheaper, I will buy it if it is cheaper." ”

The boss thought for a moment with a bitter face, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet: "Forget it...... I think the girl is also a sincere person, so I will treat it as if I brought you the goods, and I don't earn you a penny, and the reserve price is good for you. Four hundred yuan, not a penny less, any less I will drink the northwest wind. ”

Xiao Duxue was really embarrassed to bargain again, so she reached out and took out the money.

Fu Xuefeng couldn't resist the idea of stopping her and watched the seller sing a one-man show.

Hengkong stretched out a hand and snatched the wallet: "Why are you still rubbing here?" Grandma needs help, why don't you go back soon? ”

"Cangyang? What are you doing? Give me back your wallet. ”

Cangyang smiled and said to the boss, "Uncle, I'm sorry. She is my family's helper, and my grandma is in a hurry to hire people now, and she will buy it later. ”

The boss was very upset when he saw that the cooked duck was about to fly.

Cangyang said a few more words of apology, glared and said, "Why are you still standing?" Don't want to get paid anymore? ”

Fu Xuefeng took the opportunity to push Xiao Duxue out of the door: "Go back." ”

The boss had no choice but to give up, raised his hand and threw the bracelet into the pile of jewelry, his eyes already fixed on the male customer who had just entered the door.

The streets are full of people and lively. Cangyang looked left and right, and threw his wallet to Xiao Duxue: "Say that you have a bad brain, and you still don't admit it." The bracelet was not sterling silver at all, and it would not cost more than fifty dollars. ”

"How is that possible? You lie! ”

"Am I lying? That shop is a well-known fake goods store here for outsiders. If you don't believe me, just go back and see if there are any locals to buy something. ”

Xiao Duxue didn't say

Words.

"That bracelet looks beautiful, you can't buy it back and wear it for half a month, it's jet black, a piece of waste. Also 400 yuan! You're pretty generous. If it weren't for you helping in my house, and you would be considered my own person, I wouldn't have bothered to care about your. ”

Xiao Duxue tugged at her hair, very annoyed: "I think that boss is quite sincere, and he actually deceives people!" ”

"Sincerely? That's you're blind! Do you want to buy jewelry? ”

"I heard that the silver jewelry in Tibet is good, and I want to buy a bracelet for my mother."

"Come with me, I'll take you." Cangyang began to introduce the roadside shops: which one has good leather goods, which one has good yak meat, which one has a good reputation for butter tea, which one has real fat rice noodles, which one specializes in killing people in pits, and which one is honest and credible......

At the end of the street there was a hill with a grove behind it, and next to it was a log cabin with a small, broken wooden door.

"What the hell is this place? Where is human trafficking? ”

"You're not worth anything. Everything of value is in this door. ”

Knocking on the door, an old woman in black clothes and black pants sat cross-legged on a chair and smoked a dry cigarette. When he saw someone coming, he didn't greet him, and he still clicked the cigarette pouch unhurriedly.

"Aunt Lan, I brought a friend." Cang Yang waited respectfully. Xiao Duxue learned from him, greeted respectfully, and waited respectfully.

Aunt Lan took another puff of cigarette before raising her head. I saw that her skin was dark, her cheeks were high and bulging, her eyes were deep-set, and she looked like a skeleton that had been drained of blood at first glance. The black clothes lined her thinness, and the old age was weird. When she saw Xiao Duxue, her gray-brown eyes seemed to brighten, and then darkened again. "The girl is a distant guest?" Her voice was soft, not like it was her.

"Yes. I'm here to study. ”

Aunt Lan climbed up the broken wooden ladder and took down a plate covered with black cloth from a high place: "Look for it and see if there is anything you like." She spat a smoke bubble in the direction of Fu Xuefeng, her eyes deep.

On the plate are many pieces of jewelry with strange shapes, dull colors, and seemingly very old age. A bracelet carved with patterns and black dirt lay in the corner of the plate, waiting for someone who knew the goods to take it away.

Aunt Lan picked up the black cloth and wiped the bracelet until it had faded away from the dirt and revealed its shiny face.

"It's beautiful! How much? Xiao Duxue touched the delicately carved and lifelike orchids on the bracelet, and fell in love with the beauty.

"Five hundred."

Xiao Duxue went to pay for it without saying a word.

"You're not going to bargain with me?"

"I love it, it's priceless."

"You're not afraid that I will join forces with this kid to deceive you?"

"Although Cangyang's temper stinks, he probably won't do anything about abduction. If you do get scammed, that's okay. Living in this world, how can there be no one who will not be deceived. I'll just buy a lesson. ”

Aunt Lan's withered hand patted the plate: "Don't you show yourself?" ”

Xiao Duxue had no intention of spending money on herself, and she didn't want to brush off the kindness of others, so she casually dialed the jewelry on the plate. A small, dark ring rolled out. The ring is not very pretty, but the petals of the vine flower are layered on top of each other, like flowing water, like a living thing. Xiao Duxue has always liked flowers and plants, so she naturally loves them. She wore the ring on the middle finger of her right hand, and it was just the right size, as if it had been made for her.
