Du Chaofeng was quite arrogant before, but now he grabbed his tail and ran, completely without his previous posture, a group of people were like gray mice.

I looked at the white-haired man in front of me, although his hair was extremely white, there was not a single wrinkle between his eyebrows and eyes, he should not be very old.

"Thank you." I felt like he was standing up for me, but when I think about it, it's not right, because I don't know him at all.

And he, turning around, stared at me for a while with his deep, slightly blue eyes, and then said nothing, turned around and walked out of the dining room.

This mess can only be cleaned up by me, and after cleaning up everything, only this big solid wood table remains, seeing that the white-haired man overturned it to the ground so easily, I also tried to hold the corner of the table, and the table did not move at all.

In the end, seven or eight people worked together at lunchtime to straighten the tables and chairs.

After the "turmoil" in the morning, these people have reined in a lot, and they are honest when eating, and they don't dare to say anything more.

It's just that Du Chaofeng took advantage of the fact that when I brought the soup to him, he lowered his voice and asked me: "Do you know the White Rakshasa?" ”

"What?" I stared at him, and I didn't know who the White Rakshasa was at this point.

"It's Xiao Lengyan, the one who went crazy this morning." Du Chaofeng was also extremely dissatisfied with the one named Xiao Lengyan, but he could only endure it.

"I don't know him." I put the soup down and turned to leave.

That Du Chaofeng grabbed my wrist violently: "I don't know what he gave you?" Stinky boy, don't think someone is covering? ”

Du Chaofeng's voice suddenly paused, and then he burst out laughing: "Hahaha, Xiao Ye, are you here, let's eat together?" ”

Xiao Leng squinted his eyes at Du Chaofeng, one of Du Chaofeng's hands was originally grabbing my wrist, but it was immediately let go when it was skimmed like this.

If this morning's cold lesson to these people was "coincidentally" unpleasant to look at them, then now it is obviously helping me.

I looked at him and wondered in my heart whether this person was the same as the Hongru family, and what kind of relationship did he have with my family.

But before I could ask, this Xiao Lengyan disappeared.

He never eats with everyone, and he doesn't have to follow the rules here, and he often gets elusive.

After I stayed in Qingru for a few days, I began to gradually understand the state of these people, Qingru has very few guests here, and it is generally good to have one or two pawnbrokers a month.

And the big courtier here rarely shows up, only Du Chaofeng looks at the pawnshop, he seems to be a soil overlord here, except for Zhuo Shao and Xiao Lengyan, no one can let him restrain his arrogance.

Zhuo Shao slept until three poles in the morning every day, and when he woke up, most of them were late, and these people in the pawnshop were drinking a little wine in the front hall of the pawnshop during the day, gambling a little money, and passing time, Zhuo Shao pretended to come when he came.

And I spend most of my time in the kitchen, except for Zhuo Shao, who will give me basic antique beginner books from time to time, I feel that what I usually do does not help me in any way to become a courtier.

Time passed a little bit without any waves, and in the blink of an eye, I had been in Hongru for two years, and in these two years, my body had also changed.

From a little fart child, to a woman, I often can't breathe with the strap on my chest, and I don't dare to wear thin short sleeves casually even in summer, and my hair is always not much longer than a small flat head, just for fear of being seen.

And this is not the most headache, the most headache for me is the monthly affairs, every few days are more sneaky like a thief.

"Hey!" When I came back from the supermarket outside, I was holding the things I needed to do that thing, when someone suddenly jumped out of the wooden door and screamed, so frightened that my hands shook, and the bag fell directly to the ground.

"Fat Jiu, are you really a child who doesn't grow up? When they're all so big, they sneak out to buy food, so I can see what's delicious. Zhuo Yifan said and leaned over to get my shopping bag.

"Don't move, it's not for food." I wasn't in the kitchen for nothing, I had developed my hand speed and quickly hid the bag behind me.

"Zhuo Yifan, if you're hungry, I'll go to the kitchen and get you some noodles." In the past two years, he has become very familiar with Zhuo Yifan, everyone calls him Zhuo Shao, and I, he allows me to call him by his name, saying that it is not a good name, and he is fat nine is addicted, even if I have lost a lot of weight in the past two years, he still does not change his words.

"Eh, you have to eat hot pot this winter, but it's a pity that you don't eat meat, it's boring, otherwise it's good for our brothers to drink and eat meat." As he spoke, he winked at me and leaned over me.

Good guy, it smells of men's perfume.

"You're not a monk, what can you do if you eat meat?" Zhuo Yifan egged me on.

I shook my head resolutely, but he seemed to have made up his mind that I would break my vows today.

When he was in a stalemate with Zhuo Yifan, he saw a man in his forties sneakily walking in from the mouth of the alley.

He still has something in his arms, and when I see him like this, I know that he is here to be something, and I have seen some such people in the past two years.

It's just that many people overestimate what they have, and some of them are fakes at all, and the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

When the man saw me and Zhuo Yifan standing at the door of the pawnshop, he first took a few steps back vigilantly, and hugged the box in his hand even tighter.

"This guest, I am the shopkeeper of this pawnshop, what treasure have you brought with you today? Can you give me a palm? Zhuo Yifan stared at the box in the man's hand, but he was interested.

It stands to reason that this treasure appraisal is not Zhuo Yifan's turn, it is all the work done by the court, but now that it has reached the end of the year, the great court has gone to Hongru, and Du Chaofeng has been drunk outside at noon, and he is a little sober at night, so he rushed to the next one.

Qing Ruli now the two courtiers have not accepted apprentices, so no one can help to see things, Zhuo Yifan in the past two years I haven't seen him show anyone the treasure, I don't know if he can see it accurately.

"Zhuo Yifan?" I whispered and gently dragged Zhuo Yifan aside.

"Let's let him come back tomorrow, or we won't be responsible for the mistake." I reminded Zhuo Yifan, after all, these antiques are often tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions, and if you read it wrong, you can't afford to pay it at all.

Zhuo Yifan waved his hand and said it was okay.

And the man estimated that he heard the conversation between me and Zhuo Yifan, and had doubts about the identities of the two of us.

"Report a man." The man suddenly said something I didn't understand at all.

Zhuo Yifan smiled and said, "Wooden table vine, you can also report a vine." ”

"Lantern vines." The man had already turned sideways towards the mouth of the alley, but now he had turned back.

Zhuo Yifan told me in a low voice that this is the jargon of a pawnshop, that is, to ask the other party what his surname is, Lantern Vine, which is the homonym of the surname "Zhao" and "Zhao".

"Mr. Zhao, go in and sit down, if it's really a good thing, then the price is negotiable, if you have ever been a thing, you will know that the price given by our Hongru has always been the highest in the industry." After Zhuo Yifan finished speaking, he made a gesture of please to Mr. Zhao.

The man nodded, believing he understood it too.

Therefore, follow Zhuo Yifan and walk towards the pawnshop.

I followed behind them, listening to Zhuo Yifan ask each other, what kind of object it was, Mr. Zhao was still very cautious, and he refused to say it for a long time, only said that he would explain it in detail.

Looking at this Mr. Zhao walking and tiptoeing, he didn't look like a treasure bearer, more like a thief.

"Okay, sit down." Zhuo Yifan took people to the counter hall of the pawnshop, only to find that seven or eight guys from the pawnshop were drinking here.

Seeing Zhuo Yifan come in, he hurriedly stood up, Zhuo Yifan didn't have time to pay attention to them, but motioned for the man to sit on the wooden chair next to him, and then waited for Mr. Zhao to take out the things in his arms.

Mr. Zhao looked at the guys in the store, hesitated for a moment, and asked Zhuo Yifan if he could find a room to go in and watch alone.

Zhuo Yifan waved his hand: "No need, it's all your own people, you just have to take it out, and let everyone open their eyes." ”

"That?" Mr. Zhao hesitated again, and finally took out the box in his arms, which was a wooden box painted blue, and the box was carved with intricate totems, but it should be new, this bright lacquer color I have not seen in the book Zhuo Yifan gave me.

When the box was opened, there was a mass of something wrapped in satin.

Mr. Zhao carefully opened the silk and showed what was in his palm, but it made me stunned.

It's not because it's so strange or elaborate, it's that I have it, and it's exactly the same.

What the other party is holding in his hand at the moment is the blood jade cicada I took out of my grandfather's pocket, my eyes widened, and I looked at it carefully for a long time, yes, it was the blood jade cicada.

Zhuo Yifan just glanced at the jade cicada, and his eyes lit up obviously, but the next second he pretended to look sorry.

He said to Mr. Zhao: "Mr. Zhao, this thing is estimated to be fake. ”

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, this thing is me?" Mr. Zhao's words were all on his lips, but he swallowed them back alive.

He frowned, and after his cunning eyes quickly glanced at Zhuo Yifan's body again, he immediately spoke: "Your qualifications are not enough, you can't see that this is a good thing, please come out and palm your eyes." ”

"Mr. Zhao, it's really unfortunate that the two courtiers are not in the shop, why don't you leave a business card, and we will send someone to inspect the goods for you in person?" Zhuo Yifan looked at Mr. Zhao and asked tentatively.

Mr. Zhao quickly received the blood jade cicada into the box, held it in his arms, and shook his head resolutely at Zhuo Yifan: "No need, I'll come back another day." ”

With that, he hurried towards the door.
