Chapter 11 Transactions
After eating, Ye Jingshu went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and everyone in the Pu family also went back to the house to rest, naturally they didn't notice that Pu Dagui secretly entered Pu's room at this time.
When Pu Dagui entered the house, he happened to see his mother carefully groping for the bracelet in his hand, his face was happy, and he couldn't put it down: "Da Gui'er, you are here, my mother likes this bracelet, where did you get it?" ”
Pu Dagui came to talk to his mother alone this time, just to talk about this bracelet.
I also wanted to make money at the beginning, and it was originally because I was drunk and killed someone, so it stands to reason that if I could save the people in the car at that time, it would be regarded as making up for it.
But as soon as it came, the car was stuck on the vine branch on the edge of the cliff and was about to overturn; Second, when he was about to reach out and pull the woman covered in blood who was hit by him, he saw the jade bracelet on her hand and neck.
Although his family is poor, after all, he has traveled a few years ago and seen a lot of good things.
This jade bracelet, he can see at a glance that it is extraordinary, a woman who can wear this kind of jewelry, the family must be extraordinary, he was carried away at the time, he only wanted to take the bracelet for himself, without considering that the woman was already struggling to survive with the last strength.
In this way, although the bracelet was successfully removed by herself, the woman also fell off the cliff.
Now that I think about it, this woman's death was caused by herself. In fact, after this incident, I have always regretted it in my heart, if I had saved this woman at the beginning, and then asked him for some compensation, people would not have refused to give it......
However, it has come to this point, and there is no use in regretting it. Now Ye Jingshu has begun to doubt the origin of this bracelet, and she has to ask her mother to hide this bracelet and no longer wear it.
Thinking of this, he spoke:
"Mother, this bracelet was actually bought by me on the black market, this is a crime, and if you are caught, you will go to jail. So I can't let others know about this, especially Ye Jingshu's girls, she has begun to suspect it today. So, mother, you put this thing away, okay? ”
This is the first time that Pu Mu has seen her son talk to herself in such a serious tone, and she can't help but believe it, the bracelet is a dead thing, how can it be important to have her son who was conceived in October? Besides, if something happens to Dagui, what can Xiao Bao'er do!
After thinking about it for a while, Pu Mu immediately made a promise, and took off the bracelet and locked it in the cabinet.
Ye Jingshu couldn't help but think of the bracelet after finishing her work, which made her heart feel uneasy, for no other reason:
This bracelet is too similar to the one in my mother's hand! Although he just glanced at it, the bracelet that his mother was injured had accompanied his mother for many years, it was a gift from his grandmother to his mother when they got married, and it was an heirloom of the Ye family, and there was absolutely no repeat in this world. If this one in his mother-in-law's hand is really his mother's, then his mother's death ......
Thinking of this, Ye Jingshu was shocked to realize that her back was already soaked with cold sweat.
In the afternoon, when Ye Jingshu was washing clothes, she deliberately went to her mother-in-law, saying that she wanted to wash the sleeves on her arms, and by the way, observe the bracelet on her hand. But to Ye Jingshu's surprise, the bracelet was no longer in Pu Mu's hand.
At this time, the seeds of doubt in Ye Jingshu's heart had taken root and sprouted, and she didn't care too much, so she asked Pu Mu directly, "Mom, where did your bracelet go?" ”
Pu Mu sighed in her heart when she heard this: Dagui is right, Ye Jingshu really began to doubt.
"Oh, I don't think it's convenient to carry it to work, so I'll put it away."
After that, he thought of something and said:
"Jingshu, Sister Kai told me today that the job she was looking for near Pentagon Park to distribute flyers was too tiring, and it was a hot day, so I wanted you to go on a shift and do it twice, you can take a look, and go over when you are free."
Ye Jingshu listened and spoke.
However, once the seeds of doubt were planted, they quickly grew into towering trees.
Ye Jingshu lay in bed at night, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. But once I fell asleep, I always had nightmares: in my dreams, my mother was covered in blood and clutched on the edge of the cliff, calling her name......
I woke up from a nightmare, covered in sweat, and saw my husband snoring like thunder, so I got out of bed lightly and washed my face, wiped away the cold sweat, and poured a cup of hot water to wake up: No, I must figure out this matter.
The next day, Ye Jingshu went to the post office and wrote a letter to her father, asking in detail about her mother's car accident, and asked her father to find out if the bracelet was still at home. After that, I went to the shopping mall near the Pentagon Garden to help my eldest sister Pu Xiu send flyers.
Pu Mu's side. She saw that Ye Jingshu had already gone out, so she went into the house, opened the cabinet and took out the jade bracelet, and repeatedly stroked it and was reluctant to leave her hand. But yesterday, Ye Jingshu obviously asked her about the origin of the bracelet again, which made Pu Mu very uneasy.
This bracelet is now like a hot potato, and it seems that it cannot be kept. I have to dispose of it myself, I can't drag down my eldest son. So he secretly went to the street, saw a shop, and went in to inquire whether he wanted to buy jade.
At first, the jade shop owner was very contemptuous when he saw this poor old lady, but when he saw the things in the old woman's hand, his eyes lit up:
That's a great deal! How long has it been since I saw such a Hetian jade bracelet in my shop? It's a good thing with no price! But this old lady doesn't look like someone who can wear this jade......
However, he can't resist the great temptation of profit: whatever? Making money is king, no matter how much money you pay this time, you have to take this thing down. But this old lady doesn't understand the goods when she looks at it, so it's better to cheat her herself.
"Hey, auntie, you're here, and you're going to hand out this bracelet, right?"
When Pu Mu heard this, she quickly nodded and said, "Yes, boss, do you see if you can accept this bracelet here?" ”
The boss replied: "Auntie, look at what you said, how can you not accept it, accept it!" Of course! ”
When Pu Mu heard this, she was overjoyed: "Then boss, look at this bracelet, what price do you charge?" ”
Looking at Pu Mu's eager appearance, the jade shop owner snorted coldly in his heart:
This is probably your own initiative, how can the family be willing to give up such a good thing? However, if you are angry and make money, this may be an opportunity for yourself to turn over. So he said earnestly:
"Auntie, our shop has been in the jade business for decades, and Tong Suo is not bullied, and it is definitely worth your trust. You came all the way here, and I should give you a good price, but the quality of this bracelet ......"
Looking at Pu Mu's obviously anxious look, the boss was overjoyed: it seems that she really doesn't know how to do it, and the big fish is about to be baited!
opened his mouth and said regretfully: "Alas, this color is really average! ”
When Pu Mu heard this, her heart suddenly became anxious: No, could it be that her son lost? But looking at Dagui's expression that day, this bracelet doesn't look like a bargain!
"So, boss, look, how much do you pay?"
The boss pondered for a while, and then said, "Auntie, look, give you 250, will it be done?" ”
When Pu Mu heard this, she stopped doing it: "Who are you talking about two hundred and five?" Never mind! This business is in the end! After saying that, he pretended to turn around and leave.
The boss was also anxious when he saw Pu Mu's behavior, and immediately half coaxed and half deceived and said, "Auntie, what did you say?" I didn't mean that. You see, in order to express my sincerity, I will charge you 300 yuan for this bracelet, you see......"
Pu Mu was overjoyed when she heard this, but she didn't expect this thing to be worth a lot of money. immediately agreed.
Before leaving, the boss also took out a list for her to sign, saying that it was a transaction certificate, which was a voluntary transaction between the two parties. Pu's mother had never been to school, so she happily pressed her handprint and went home happily with 300 yuan.
But what Pu Mu didn't notice was that as soon as she left, the jade shop immediately closed.
Since then, the boss has never been seen in the city again.
