On Christmas Eve, there were snowflakes in Nanfeng, and by the next morning it was a silver world outside.

Xu Jiaren woke up very early, and the snowy sky outside brightened up very early.

Standing in front of the window of the hotel, looking at the winter scenery outside, Xu Jiaren felt that her feelings had also entered the winter.

"Woman, why don't we go back first."

Ah Yi said with a wistful expression: "Now my energy is too low, and it is impossible to help you search for the whereabouts of the old man on a large scale." ”

"Is the place we went to last night really the last place Grandpa Shi was?" Xu Jiaren asked again.

"It really is!" Ah Yi's voice became smaller and smaller, and said, "I used all my energy to find it, but I don't understand why it went wrong?" ”

"Is it possible that we are going the wrong way?"

“……”

"Ah Yi?"

Xu Jiaren screamed twice, and found that Ah Yi, who was originally lying on the bay window, gradually lost his body, and finally entered the space directly.

His energy was really depleted.

Without Ah Yi, Xu Jiaren is really alone.

She tried to call Tan Yue a few times, but it was always turned off.

I also went to Shijia's old house, but after sitting in the western restaurant outside for a day, I didn't see a person coming out of it.

Looking through the gap in the gate, the grass exposed under the melting snow at the door was withered and yellow, and it must have been a little time since it was watered and cared for.

The snow in the yard was still untouched, and no one cleaned it from morning to night.

This house should be uninhabited.

Xu Jiaren was really confused now.

It turns out that even in the same city, it is not easy to meet someone.

Since she really can't see Shi Yuheng, it doesn't make sense for her to continue to stay here.

Xu Jiaren walked slowly to Liuli Lane, she planned to buy a few decent jade artifacts for Ah Yi to use as an energy body.

Walking around, she finally stopped in front of a stall set up by an old man smoking a dry cigarette.

The stall is different from other bosses in that this stall only sells jade.

Especially the jade bracelet on the ground, there are various colors and styles.

Xu Jiaren fell in love with an emerald green bracelet in the wooden box at the old man's feet.

In the past few years, following Ah Yi to tao jade, Xu Jiaren also has some understanding of these things.

"Uncle, show me that bracelet?" Xu Jiaren shouted with a grin.

"Click, click—"

The old man squinted at the girl squatting in front of the stall, and replied expressionlessly, "This thing costs five thousand." ”

"Hmm. Show me? Xu Jiaren stretched out his hand to beg for it.

"You give the money, I'll show you!" Old man with a cigarette. The pole pushed away Xu Jiaren's outstretched hand, unmoved.

Xu Jiaren smiled, took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it over: "Uncle, this is always okay, right?" ”

I didn't expect this girl to take out so much money in the blink of an eye.

Knocked a cigarette on the sole of his shoe. rod, the old man took the money.

Counting the money, the old man was not ambiguous, and handed over the jade bracelet at his feet with the wooden box: "Look at it well, don't worry, my things don't trick people." ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as I like it." Xu Jiaren took the jade bracelet and was about to put it in his pocket and throw it to Ah Yi, when he heard someone shouting behind him: "Put down that bracelet!" ”

Xu Jiaren turned around and didn't know what was going on, his hands were empty, and the wooden box and bracelet were all snatched away.

"What are you going to do kid?!" The old man stood up angrily and held up his cigarette. The pole scolded: "This thing is a little girl, you hurry up and give it to others." ”

"This is what we took a fancy to first, why did you sell it to her?"

The one who snatched the box was a girl, dressed very exquisitely, a short coat made of mink fur, a pair of beige boots over the knee, plus long sheepskin gloves on her hands and a small fragrant bag on her back, she looked like a rich person.

"You! This thing is the first thing I fancied, how much money you spent, I'll give it to you! The girl turned her head and said in a commanding tone, "You can transfer it to me." I won't lose you! ”

"A gentleman doesn't take the favor of others! I also took a fancy to this jade bracelet. And I've already paid for it. Xu Jiaren said calmly.

Although Ah Yi can't help with the appraisal at this time, judging from Xu Jiaren's experience in buying jade for so many years, this jade bracelet is definitely a good thing.

A bracelet like this is not easy to buy without tens of thousands.

The things are good and cheap, and Xu Jiaren paid again, so there is no reason to let them out.

Again......

Xu Jiaren squinted at this girl dressed in "wealth", no matter how she looked, she seemed to have seen it somewhere.

"What about you paying? I'll be on my laurels first! ”

The girl took out a stack of banknotes from her bag and shook it twice in front of Xu Jiaren's eyes: "Here are three thousand yuan!" Take it and go! ”

"Three thousand?" Xu Jiaren glanced at the old man.

The old man was also embarrassed, he met this girl in the morning, and after a few words, his stomach was angry, so when he met Xu Jiaren again, he deliberately said two thousand yuan more.

Who would have thought that?!

"Girl, I admit that I asked for too much money...... But isn't there a reason for this......" the old man explained awkwardly.

He also thought that the girl who came later was also as difficult as the previous one, and her mouth was not good.

He couldn't imagine that Xu Jiaren would be able to pay for it.

Xu Jiaren's calm little face changed, and at the moment when the girl in front of her looked at the old man hesitating, she suddenly snatched the wooden box in her hand again.

"Huh? What are you doing? Can't you hear I bought this? ”

The girl was about to get angry, but Xu Jiaren walked in front of the old man who was setting up the stall and grabbed the old man's neckline: "You old guy, you actually killed me?" ”

"Isn't it an accident that I'm not ............

The old man was also depressed, he counted the money just now and was struggling with whether to return the girl 2,000 yuan, who would have thought that the girl who was difficult in the morning would come back?

Right now......

"What do I care about you? You only gave her 3,000 yuan for this bracelet, and you asked me so much?! Excuse me? Xu Jiaren asked angrily.

"Or ...... I still pay you back? The old man asked tentatively.

Looking at the little girl with a fierce face in front of him, the old man sighed, obviously a quiet-looking little girl, why did she change her face so terrifying?

The voice was about to deafen his ears.

"What can't be slaughtered? I want this bracelet! The girl in front of the stall stamped her feet and shouted.

Xu Jiaren turned her head, raised the jade in her hand, and said, "If you want to go, you can go!" But I've paid a lot of money, and if you want to win someone's favor, you can buy it for double the price of suing me! Otherwise, don't talk about it! ”

Speaking of which, don't you want to ask for more money?

The girl showed a look of disdain and asked, "Say, how much?" ”

"This number—" Xu Jiaren stretched out five fingers.
