Chapter Eighty-Three: Bringing Back Important Items

Then, under the gaze of Xia Ke and Zhang Dazhuang, Xia Zixi took out the remaining three semi-finished glass cups in turn and put them on the table in the main seat.

The four glass cups are about the size of a palm, and basically maintain one tone, with a pale yellow tone mixed with brilliant amber lines.

These glassware look a bit like jade, but they are more crystal clear than jade. In modern times, this kind of luster is easy to obtain through the production line because it is commonplace, and it will be criticized as having no connotation.

But in this ancient era, when productivity and mechanical force were very meager, this kind of unnatural thing was very precious.

Several glassware, which are somewhat transparent and somewhat psychedelic in color, exude a transparent and misty brilliance in the light that enters the room at the beginning of the summer sunset.

Zhang Dazhuang knew that his daughter-in-law and daughter were helping his second grandmother to make pottery, and later they were making glazed wares these days. He also heard his daughter-in-law talk about the rare beauty of glass, but he had heard of it and had never seen it with his own eyes.

At this time, seeing that the utensils he gave to the old man and the second master were so dazzling, he was stunned, and almost suspected that he was dazzled.

After staring at the glass cup for a long time, after making sure that his eyes were fine, he looked down at his hands again, and cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on his forehead.

Shouldn't such a valuable object be more cautious and more cautious, and arrange people to protect and transport it layer by layer? If he loses such a noble thing, he will not die!

Xia Zixi stared at the glass cup in astonishment for a moment, this was actually made by the little sister?

He turned to Zhang Dazhuang and was about to ask about the situation, but when he saw his cold sweating appearance, he couldn't help asking, "What?" Is there something wrong? ”

Zhang Dazhuang wiped his forehead with his sleeve and said with a wry smile: "The little one only listened to the family, and the glass fired by the second grandmother was going to be sent back, but I really didn't know it would be such a valuable object." This, if something goes wrong on the way to it, the little one who dies ten thousand times can't make up for it. ”

He thought at the time that the things that could be brought to him by him, even if his daughter-in-law and others were called glass, would not be very precious, who knew that it would be such an object that he could not think of, and even be so transparent and crystal that it would glow.

Xia Zixi laughed when he heard it, "It's because you don't know that you can walk on the street without being eye-catching." If you know that things are valuable, just looking at your current appearance will attract thieves to covet them. ”

After speaking, he asked about the matter, "What does the second grandmother have to explain?" ”

Xia Ke also looked away from the glass cup and looked at Zhang Dazhuang.

It is a foregone conclusion that the daughter and Wang Xi will separate, this thing is too expensive, and it is not on the dowry list. If the Wang family knew that such a thing existed, it would be really troublesome to explain.

Moreover, if the daughter has such an astonishing utensils and glass skills, if it is publicized at the time of harmony, it will not be beneficial at all.

Xia Ke guessed, I was afraid that Xia Yanqing would be in a hurry because of this, and as soon as the glass came out, he sent someone back to his parents' house.

Zhang Dazhuang relayed what his daughter-in-law told him, and told Xia Ke's father and son in detail, and it was really similar to what Xia Ke thought. Among them, Zhang Dazhuang also mentioned that Xia Yanqing does not plan to ask craftsmen to polish it for the time being, and will save it for a period of time.

After listening to Zhang Dazhuang, Xia Ke asked Xia Yanqing about the current situation and told him to go back and tell Xia Yanqing not to make any utensils in the near future.

After that, he called the butler and took him down to receive the reward.

When Zhang Dazhuang left, Xia Ke and Xia Zixi restrained their expressions, and then picked up the glass cup one by one and looked at it carefully.

The two watched in amazement.

Carefully put down the only broken glass cup, Xia Ke said with some relief: "Yanqing has such skills, even if he returns home in the future, he doesn't need to worry about the future." Even if she remarries, she can choose her in-laws well. ”

Xia Ziximo was holding a glass cup with good shape and uniformity, and when she heard Xia Ke speak, she raised her head and responded: "Yes, I didn't expect my little sister to be so smart and beautiful, and such a rare treasure can be made by her." Wang Xi, hum! Blind as a bat. ”

As he spoke, he put the glass cup back on the table, "Although there are few glass objects in the world, there are some. But there are few such clear and delicate shapes. This is still the glass cup has not been finely polished, if refined, how dazzling and magnificent will it be? The little sister is thoughtful, things have not stabilized, this thing really can't be shown, so as not to be coveted and cause trouble. ”

Xia Ke nodded, "Well, wrap it up and give it to your mother to keep." Your mother knows that Yan Qing has sent someone back, but I'm afraid she is already anxious. I will show her the things to see the rarity, so that she can also be happy for Yanqing. ”

Looking at Xia Zixi wrapping four glazed utensils, Xia Ke continued: "Yanqing is indeed very intelligent, but I heard that the grandfather of the Tao family woman cultivated the Tao and found those books, and he was able to make such utensils, which can be described as a talent. ”

Xia Zixi said with a smile: "There are many talented people in the world, and I can't say that our family banquet is one of them." Now it seems that the little sister is not only talented, but also knows how to advance and retreat, and we were worried about her in vain. ”

Xia Ke nodded, "Indeed, seeing these objects, the matter of Yanqing can really be settled." Otherwise, she will become a divorced woman at a young age, and the future will be really sad. Yan Qing was in a hurry to send the important items back, but he was afraid that there would be movement from Aunt Xu of the Wang family. ”

…………

Xia Yanqing didn't plan to open the kiln again, but after listening to Da Zhuang's daughter-in-law relay Xia Ke's advice, she just borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and instructed Da Zhuang's daughter-in-law to take a few girls, completely retract her hands, and tidy up the guest house.

Even restored the stove to the appearance of boiling water for cooking, and when Xu Qinghui's good news arrived, she went back to her parents' house.

She vaguely explained to Mr. Bai that since the method of making pottery and firing glaze works, it is good to wait for the pottery kiln at home to be built properly, and it is good to make it directly in the pottery kiln, and it is always bad to toss in the back house.

Seeing that halfway through July, the heat and dryness of the weather faded faster.

Except for a few masters of the Wang family, the rest of the people did not know that Xia Yanqing would leave the Wang family in a few days, and Xia Yanqing also resumed his normal schoolwork and study rules.

But who is Mama Tang, from the attitude of Mrs. Liu and the Yuan family towards Xia Yanqing, she has already noticed the abnormality, but she doesn't know where this abnormality comes from.

July 15 passed quietly, and the weather would be cloudy from time to time.

Seeing that the day of Xu Qinghui's follow-up was coming, the sky that had been cloudy for a few days began to rain gently, the rain was not heavy, it fell in the middle of the night, and it stopped at dawn.
