Chapter 79: Stone Spirit
On the way back, Xie Zhiqing was holding a box containing a clay doll, and Du Yunnuan was holding a box containing two grass flowers and the black stone, and he was a little impressed by Xie Zhiqing.
She thought that Xie Zhiqing was a young lady who didn't know the world, but she didn't expect that people still knew how to bargain, and they also knew that buying things could make the boss buy something cheap.
Not to mention, although the two Tongcao flowers in her hand look very simple, they are also quite exquisite, even if they are sold for money, they will cost almost a penny.
As for the stone in her hand, she always felt that it was not so simple, but it is estimated that the boss did not take this stone seriously.
Back at Yining Building, Xie Chi had already prepared lunch for them, Xie Zhiqing had forgotten the little conflict with Xie Chi in the morning, and came to Xie Chi's side to talk to him about what she had seen along the way, focusing on describing how she bought a box of mud dolls and two Tongcao flowers and a stone from the grocery store owner at the same price.
Du Yunnuan put the stone on the table.
Xie Chi shook the fan for a moment, and then shook his head, "If the boss knows what he gave to you, it is estimated that the bowels of regret will be green at this time." ”
Xie Zhiqing and Du Yunnuan were stunned, glanced at each other, and Xie Zhiqing spoke, "Brother, what is this?" ”
Xie Chi took the stone, looked at it carefully, and knocked on his ear a few times to listen, the expression on his face was a little difficult to describe, and finally he shook his head helplessly, "Do you know the stone spirit?" ”
The two little girls shook their heads together.
"Stone spirit, five-colored essence."
Xie Zhiqing's mouth was quick, "But this black and swarthy one, where are the five colors?" ”
"Listen to me finish speaking, this is the description in the book, and it is rumored that the stone spirit is a fragment of the five-colored stone left by Nuwa to mend the sky, mixed with other rocks, and slowly formed after years of accumulation."
"Although the piece in front of you looks black on the outside, if you peel off the appearance, it is a stone spirit inside, probably ......" Xie Chi made a gesture, comparing his thumb and index finger, "It's so big." ”
"So small!" Xie Zhiqing looked like that, it was just a little bigger than her thumb, this stone was bigger than her hand, and it was so big inside.
"Too small? Such a large piece of stone spirit can be sold for thousands of taels of silver. ”
Xie Zhiqing suddenly didn't dislike it for being small, "Brother, can you buy a lot of things?" ”
"yes." Xie Chi opened his mouth leisurely.
"Sure enough, the boss lost," Xie Zhiqing patted Du Yunnuan on the shoulder, "Sister Du, you have made a lot of money!" ”
When Du Yunnuan heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, "No, this stone was given to you by the owner of the shop, if it weren't for Sister Xie and you bought a clay doll, he wouldn't have given it, this stone should belong to you." ”
"That's not possible, if you don't take this stone, the boss won't think about giving us this ugly stone, so it's all your credit, Sister Du."
"No, I didn't do anything, I didn't spend a penny, I can't take this!"
"Then if you hadn't taken this, we wouldn't have been able to get the stone spirit, anyway, I can't take it, if I go alone, I won't even look at this stone, so even if it is valuable, it won't belong to us."
Two little girls, you push me, I push you, as if the stone has become a hot potato, and no one wants it.
"Alright, let's eat first." Xie Chi knocked on the table with a fan, the little guy on the side cleaned up the things on the table, and the little two outside brought the dishes over.
"This stone spirit can get into your hands, and both of you have credit, so it's handed over to me to deal with, and I'll get two points for the money from the sale, and the remaining eight points will be divided equally between the two of you, okay?"
Du Yunnuan originally wanted to speak, but as soon as he looked at Xie Chi, he immediately coaxed.
Xie Chi's expression was clearly saying, if you talk nonsense and delay me to eat, I will beat you.
Xie Zhiqing was also afraid of her brother's serious appearance, swallowed her saliva, and whispered a good word, and Du Yunnuan followed by saying that she had no opinion.
So the stone was handed over to Xie Chi to put away, and a few people ate quietly.
After eating, Xie Chi arranged for someone to send the two little girls back to the manor, and he went to do something else.
Back at the manor, Du Yunnuan didn't do anything else, after taking a nap, he looked in a pile of cloth, found a piece of beige cloth, and then carefully sketched the appearance of the spring flowers to be embroidered in his heart, took the paper and drew it carefully, and showed it to Ah Yuan.
"Ah Yuan, what do you think of me embroidering this kind of spring flower?"
Ah Yuan took a look at it, "Miss Du is so good, she paints flowers so beautifully." ”
Du Yunnuan pursed his lips, "Sister Yuan, don't praise me, I know my level, I can just see it, if you want to say how good it is, it doesn't count." ”
"Miss Du," Ah Yuan smiled, revealing his dimples, "That's also good, I can't even draw!" ”
Du Yunnuan shook his head, not going to listen to Ah Yuan boasting about himself, carefully took the fabric and stretched it with a bandage, then selected the embroidery thread of the right color, threaded the needle and began to prepare the embroidery purse.
Ah Yuan saw that Du Yunnuan was seriously embroidering his purse, so he quietly retreated.
Spring flowers are more difficult than chickens, Du Yunnuan spent an afternoon and a whole day to embroider the spring flowers, she doesn't learn much now, she can only embroider a spring flower on the purse, she can't do other patterns, fortunately, Ah Yuan will play the rope, and the two of them work together to make the purse.
Just when Du Yunnuan was about to send the purse to Xie Zhiqing, Xie Zhiqing also came to find Du Yunnuan.
She put a box into Du Yunnuan's hand, "My brother asked me to give it to you." ”
Du Yunnuan reacted, "Is it that Brother Xie has already sold the stone essence?" So fast? ”
Xie Zhiqing supported her chin with her hands, "My brother told me that a wealthy businessman happened to be passing by Lengquan County, and he wanted to find something rare to give to Chang Mingda and Chang Shoufu, so my brother knocked him out." ”
As soon as Du Yunnuan heard Chang Mingda's name, his brows furrowed.
"Sister Du, you don't like Chang Shoufu either?"
"There is a family surnamed Zhao opposite our house, and the daughter of that family married the county magistrate of our county, and everyone said that our county magistrate and Chang Shoufu have a good relationship, and the Zhao family is also rampant and domineering in our village, which is particularly annoying."
Xie Zhiqing immediately found an ally, "Yes, Chang Mingda is a very annoying person, I will tell you quietly," the little girl lowered her voice and leaned towards Du Yunnuan, "That Chang Mingda is still our family's enemy!" ”
Du Yunnuan was shocked, could it be that Xie Chi told Xie Zhiqing the truth about the murder of their brother and sister's mother?
Xie Zhiqing is only eight years old, so she is burdened with hatred, okay?
