Chapter 155: Hanging Out
Xiaoru took the red cloth bag handed by Lou Yi. Gently opened it to see, there was a pair of silver bracelets inside, and a jade wrench, I couldn't help but be a little stunned - the silver bracelet is a little old, to the point of antiquity, although it is wiped clean, but the pattern on it is slightly blurred, but also with a little bit of dirt, the jade wrench, to be smooth and clear, the so-called people raise jade, jade raises people, often play with the rubbing jade in their hands, naturally with an indescribable aura, people happy, but, in addition to the gift of relatives, Xiaoru does not like the jade contaminated with the breath of outsiders, What's more, the jade wrench in front of him is only medium, and it is really not too good-"Xianggong." You bought it? How much? ”
Lou Yi laughed, stretched out an index finger, and his face was a little red.
Xiao Ru was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said, "One hundred taels of silver? It's really expensive, I think, to say more, a dozen taels is considered high, besides, such an ornament, if I wear it, it is better to wear the wood you carved for me, it is Xianggong's intention......"
Xiao Ru frowned dissatisfiedly, but she never thought that after listening to her words, Lou Yi's face turned even redder, Ding Feng coughed, and said in a low voice: "Brother and sister, it's not a hundred taels...... It's a thousand taels ......."
Xiao Ru was stunned, opened her mouth and stammered for a long time, before she covered her forehead speechlessly, and glared at Lou Yi with a smile: "Where did you get so much silver?" ”
Lou Yi and Ding Feng recently helped the old man with a troublesome errand, and the saint gave them a few days off, and they are currently at home, and now the two families have a good day, if they go out, they will naturally not have any silver on them, after all. Maybe when you will meet a social, no silver is the line, but it won't bring too much, generally a few dozen taels of silver for spare, it's enough, if it's just a hundred taels, the two brothers make up, maybe they can make it up, but, a thousand taels, where do they find it?
Lou Yi blinked and whispered, "The old man gave a little bit of spare ......."
Xiao Ru looked at Lou Yite's innocent face and sighed, zero flowers? A thousand taels of silver for a small spend? Is...... Loving fathers have many defeated children, no wonder Lou Yi and Ding Feng never knew the importance of silver, and they always spent money lavishly.
When Xiao Ru first took care of the house, she always felt that the money was not enough, but Lou Yi didn't feel it at all, and she couldn't understand Xiao Ru's helplessness at all. Still didn't work very well, Lou Yi's kid still went his own way, and actually bought some useless things and came back...... At that time, I still wondered, this kid is not a rich and noble person, how did he develop such a wealth problem? Fortunately, it didn't take long for the family's financial crisis to be solved, and this matter was forgotten.
However, Xiaoru naturally didn't dare to say that the old man was not, so she had to turn around, sit down obediently, and nod her head at her father-in-law: "Say, what's going on?" ”
The two brothers glanced at each other, you said, I said, and muttered for a long time before they explained the whole thing clearly-
The Lou family now has a spacious house, many trees, and excellent greening, and Xiaoru takes those birds and finches as messengers, and there are more birds in the house.
So, early in the morning, before people get up, the birds call first, the sound is crisp and moving, and the call is even more unambiguous, and Lou Yi also sounds birdsong on weekdays. He got up, and although he had a holiday today, he couldn't sleep when the time came.
Lou Yi hugged his daughter-in-law and smelled the warm jade body for a long time, and finally got up early, washed up, went to practice a set of boxing, practiced until the whole body was hot, the whole body was comfortable, and took a bath, Xiaoyan also prepared a nutritious breakfast, but unfortunately, the weather was dry, and Lou Yi did not have any appetite, so he saved breakfast, and pulled Ding Feng, who was resting at the old man's house next door last night, and went out shopping.
Ride all the way out. Lou Yi and Ding Feng's spirit is good, the weather is not hot in the morning, the air is good, the two of them let the horses gallop all the way, you chase me, and they enter the city gate, there are many pedestrians in the downtown area, there are old people who come out early in the morning to walk the bends, there are also young people who do small business, and children who play on the street, the morning market in the capital. There are also some new gadgets, those who carry their burdens to buy groceries, sell snacks, and of course, there are also some who put on a show on the spot.
Lou Yi is also idle five things, so he looked around for a while, there are some bead butter powder and the like with good workmanship on the roadside, after all, it is the capital, even if it is the things of the street vendors, it is not too good quality, Lou Yi thought of the lady at home, he had a little interest, and enjoyed it all the way along the small stall, ready to buy some back if it was really good, so that his daughter-in-law was happy.
The brothers walked all the way, and after shopping for so long, they were also a little tired, so they found a clean tea shed nearby, sat down and prepared to rest, but they never thought that they would encounter a trouble when they sat down like this.
It's still early at this time, there are not many people in the market, just next to the tea shed, there is a very simple stall, there is nothing on it except a pair of silver bracelets, to say, the people in the capital also have a high vision, such a silver bracelet, definitely not into the eyes of some young ladies with net worth, and the life is difficult, who will spend money to buy any silver bracelets. is to add a dowry to his daughter, and there is no reason to buy old things on the street, this thing is not new, and it doesn't look good. It's normal that no one buys it.
Lou Yi and Ding Feng are not nosy people, other people's things can't be sold, and it's none of their business, the two of them drank tea by themselves, chatted for a while, never thought about it, but there was a good gossip on the other side, it seemed that he was a good guest of this tea shed, and he was very familiar with the boss, he ordered a pot of tea, and pulled the boss to talk, chatting and chatting, and talking about the silver bracelet.
"The second daughter of Wang Laoliu's family is an ambitious person, but even if the broken bracelet can be sold, it will be sold for ten taels of heaven, how can it be enough to pay off his father's debts and medicine...... I see, this girl has to ...... in the end."
The boss also sighed: "This child also grew up in our area, since I was a child, I think she is smart and beautiful, in the future, I can't say that I can marry a good family, now this Wang Lao Liu has fallen into bad luck, and he has to involve his girl to suffer, hey, if I am that Wang Lao Liu, it is better to die headlong, why drag the child down." ”
Lou Yi and Ding Feng have good ears, and the gossip next to them can naturally be heard clearly, the two of them moved a little curiosity, looked up, and then noticed that the owner of the bracelet was actually a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, her head was very messy, the skin on her face was also a little dark, she was wearing a fat coat that didn't fit well, and she was looking up at the pedestrians coming and going, not selling, nor talking, and her clear and beautiful face was full of stubbornness.
