Chapter 45: Who's in Charge?
But if you just look at the oiliness and whiteness, the texture is also warm. It's just a pity that the whole piece of jade is full of impurities like brown hair. Under the touch of the hand, these impurities are not abrupt, but smooth and clean, like a warm texture integrated with jade.
It's just that, according to the world's taste for jade today, such a rough stone is difficult to get even a few decent white jade bracelets. No wonder those people before would say that this is just a worthless piece of rotten rock.
"Uncle, don't be too sad, this mortal has a time when he looks away, not to mention, the texture of this rough stone is still very good......."
Regarding Fang Fei's consolation, Yin Congde didn't seem to listen to a word at all. In the end, it was his attendants who came to pick him up and told him to go back to the house to sit and rest, and he got up in frustration.
Fang Fei stood in place, quite at a loss. But she was still unwilling, and thought hard about these sudden things, as if they had no connection with each other, and they were inextricably linked...... Then, unconsciously, she squatted down in front of the jade and lifted her chin, her fingers gently stroked the warm brown pattern on it, and suddenly said, "There is!" ”
In addition, the old craftsman who was also standing next to him in a daze seemed to be frightened by her voice, and when he heard this, he hurriedly came over and asked, "What's wrong?" The little lady doesn't want to scare the old man. ”
Fang Fei asked him about his identity, and after learning that he was the jade master specially invited by his uncle from the southwest, he hurriedly pulled him and pointed to the jade and said, "Master, I don't think this piece of jade needs to be used to cut pieces, we can use it to make a jade carving." It's carved into a flying dragon, yes, you see this, this is the tail of the flying dragon, and the pattern on it is just used to carve the scale armor of the flying dragon......"
In Jian Xin Pavilion, looking at Lu Zhaoming, who was instructing Mingyan to pack his luggage, the expression on Xu Zhizhang's face was quite complicated: "Do you really want to go to Los Angeles with them again?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not given you much time, but you have promised yourself that within two months, you must find out the facts of the case. ”
Lu Zhaoming rummaged for something on the bookcase, and replied: "No conflict, the original cause of this case was found in Los Angeles." I visited and investigated in many places in the capital, but found nothing. Obviously, the precautions in the capital are stricter, and if you can't find a breakthrough, then go back to Los Angeles to have a look. Perhaps, I can find a breakthrough from that Baozhen monk. Otherwise, what do you think I'm going to do by arranging for Jane to be staring there? ”
Xu Zhizhang looked into his eyes and sneered: "Are you convincing me, or are you convincing yourself?" Zi Chu, I know that you have always been very concerned about Lu Xiuyun, although you pretend to be casual, but in your heart, you clearly regard him as a drowning Zi Xiu......."
"Don't say it! I didn't! I didn't treat anyone as a sub-cultivator, not before, and not in the future! What's more, I still remember the past enmity, and I will never forgive Wu, let alone him! ”
As he spoke, Lu Zhaoming suddenly slammed his fist on the wall beside him. But hearing the powder rustling and falling down, the panicked Xu Zhizhang hurriedly grabbed his hand and said, "What are you doing?" I-"
Lu Zhaoming directly broke free of his wrist, withdrew his bleeding fist, and turned his face away lightly: "Don't do much, it's just that Zixiu is my own brother, and no one can replace him." ”
Xu Zhizhang saw the pain in his eyes, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't have said this. Shaoqing found an excuse to say goodbye, but Lu Zhaoming didn't send him, and the two said goodbye.
When he went out, he saw Mingyan chasing him out, and bowed to Xu Zhizhang and said: "Lord Xu, Gongzi asked the servant to tell you, he is only afraid that it will take some time to go to Los Angeles this time, if there is any news, he will send someone to Jian Xin Pavilion in time, and then discuss with you." ”
Xu Zhizhang nodded, and said with some annoyance: "Mingyan, I mentioned Zixiu in a hurry just now, if your son-in-law is depressed for a while, you must try to solve it for him." ”
Mingyan immediately smiled: "Don't worry about this, the slave has no other skills, and he has his own set of feelings for the master." Otherwise, how could the master take his servants with him wherever he goes! ”
Xu Zhizhang patted him on the shoulder and said, "I will serve your son-in-law," paused, and then said: "By the way, your son-in-law has been in private all these years, can he interact with Lu Xiuyun?" ”
Mingyan shook her head, and said categorically without thinking about it: "How can it?" Childe hated the Wu family and the ones she gave birth to, and even the master has become more and more indifferent over the years. However, this third son is better than those few people, sometimes when he sees the son, he will respectfully dismount and call his eldest brother, and sometimes he will send someone to send him over if he gets something good. Although Gongzi is cold to him on the surface, he always has a heart or two in his heart. Besides......"
Mingyan said, looked around, and then approached Xu Zhizhang's ear, and whispered: "This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the third son has become more and more like the deceased second son in recent years." Especially the look, the eyes, and the ...... Ay! ”
"I know, Mingyan, don't tell anyone about these things."
After Xu Zhizhang finished speaking, he turned his head worriedly and looked at the study with the curtain lower. The ice-cracked ebony window lattice was inlaid with glass pieces from Persia, and the shadow of a pot of Mo Lan placed by the window could be faintly seen in the colorful splendor, but the cyan figure who was still standing by the bookshelf by the window and rummaging through the books was hidden in the backlight and could not be seen.
Knowing that her son was going to Los Angeles with Su Linglong, Mrs. Wu immediately had an unsightly look on her face. Su Linglong was also clever, and hurriedly sent a brocade box, and said with a respectful smile: "This is a jade ruyi that my aunt asked me to bring you before, saying that it was a reward from the noble concubine in the palace, and it is the most appropriate to use it to calm the nerves." Do you open it up and see if you still like it? ”
As soon as Mrs. Wu heard that the thing was from the palace, she immediately chuckled in her heart, and secretly said when did Yan Ning have such a relationship with the concubine? But in the end, his face looked much better, and after signaling the maid on his side to take it, he opened the box and looked at it, and said: "Since it is a reward from the noble concubine, it is naturally the treasure of the world." But I can't afford to bring such a precious thing to me, so you better take it back, and say—"
"Mother, how can you not afford it? According to his son, as long as you recover this, the concubine may have other rewards in the future. You forget, your son is now on an errand for His Royal Highness King Qin, and His Royal Highness said earlier that he wanted to send you something, but because of your current status and grade, it is not easy to do too much, so he turned things around with his aunt's hand. ”
As soon as Mrs. Wu heard her son's words, she was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly beckoned Lu Xiuyun to sit down beside her, and then took her son's hand and asked, "Is that really what His Royal Highness King Qin said?" Oh, I'll just say, how can she Lu Yanning be so generous, it's not-"
