Chapter 48 Overnight
Chapter 48 Overnight stay
"I've read some books on jade before... In the face of the old man, Shao Jian did not have the arrogance and arrogance of the world at all, and restored the elegance of his previous study.
"Oh? Tell us about what you know about jade. Hearing that Shao Jian had studied jade, the old man said in surprise.
After sorting out his thoughts, Shao Jian said, "The high-grade jade is moisturizing, transparent, and has a greasy feeling, and it feels warm when pinched in the hand." The main way to distinguish the true from the fake is with the help of a magnifying glass or microscope, which can see that the inside of the jade is a fiber interwoven structure with fine particle size; Whereas artificial glass has no structure, bubbles can be seen. You can also carve with a knife in an inconspicuous place of jade, and what can be carved must be fake jade, and what cannot be carved is real jade. As the saying goes, "gold has a price, and jade is priceless". Because the high-grade Hetian jade is becoming more and more scarce, each kilogram can reach tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan, and the general Qinghai white jade, Russian white jade and other kilograms are only a few thousand yuan, so some people will mix this with Hetian jade. The minerals of these jades are basically the same as those of Hetian jade, but the surface color is darker and not softer, and it will be darker over time. ”
"Well, what else?" When Shao Jian was talking, the old man kept smiling faintly.
"Old jade and new jade can be identified from two aspects, the surface of the old jade has a layer of oxidized jade skin, commonly known as "pulp", like the skin of autumn pear, and the natural color of jade has obvious differences, and new jade is not. Judging from the subject matter of carving, ancient jade is a symbol of rank and power, with mythical flowers, birds, and figures, such as dragons and phoenixes. And the new ones are generally auspicious themes. Shao Jian said slowly, without the slightest cowardice just now.
At this time, Lin Xue had already prepared a meal, and saw Shao Jian talking about something, as if he had changed a person with the hooligan just now, and his temperament had become otherworldly, Lin Xue stood at the door, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"In the hearts of the Chinese, jade is a symbol of good fortune, so the Chinese like to use jade to protect themselves, keep safe and ward off evil spirits, and even use jade to accompany burials; Westerners, on the other hand, mainly appreciate the graceful, mysterious and romantic colors of jade... As he was talking, Shao Jian felt that someone was looking at him, and turned his head to look at the door, and it turned out to be Lin Xue. Looking at each other, the faces of the two couldn't help but turn red again.
"Grandpa, the meal is ready, let's talk after eating... Lowering her head, Lin Xue whispered to the old man.
Brushing his beard, the old man smiled and said, "Hehe, young man, I forgot to ask your name." Hehe, old. ”
Shao Jian hurriedly replied: "My name is Shao Jian, and I am an SD person. ”
Nodding, the old man said, "Well, Shao Jian, it's already very good for young people to have these opinions now. Let's go, you've been hungry for two days, let's go eat first. ”
The three of them came to the restaurant, looking at the three vegetarian dishes on the table, Shao Jian couldn't help but sniffle, as if he wanted to eat all the dishes on the table to his stomach. Seeing Lin Xue cover her mouth and snicker like that.
Although he was hungry for two days, Shao Jian didn't dare to make a mistake, and still chewed slowly, not at all when he drank with his brother before. The old man on the throne nodded again and again, and said secretly: "This son must not be a thing in the pool, if he is carefully crafted, he will become a great weapon one day!" After eating, the old man went back to the living room alone and made a pot of tea.
After eating three more bowls of rice, Shao Jian finally had his fill and sighed with satisfaction. Looking at Lin Xue who was cleaning up, Shao Jian said, "Lin Xue, I'll help you clean up." Lin Xue excused herself: "No need, I'll just come by myself." As he spoke, Shao Jian gently pushed him out of the kitchen. Helping the glasses on the bridge of his nose, Shao Jian had no choice but to limp back to the living room.
At this time, the tea had been brewed, and the old man had just poured out a cup, and the room was suddenly full of fragrance. As soon as Shao Jian came to the living room, he smelled a burst of fragrance. Said: "Grandpa, what kind of tea is this?" Why is it so fragrant? ”
The old man smiled and said, "Do you see those flowers outside?" ”
Shao Jian was puzzled, "Flowers? See, it's beautiful! ”
Hearing Shao Jian praise the flowers he planted, the old man said happily: "This tea is made by those flowers through the processes of mulberry picking, stall drying, frying green, cooling, rolling, stall drying, fragrant, and cooling. I made it myself, you can taste it. As he spoke, he poured out a cup and handed it to Shao Jian.
Taking a sip gently, the sweet spring water made Shao Jian's mouth fragrant, and a warm current crossed his stomach, which was indescribably refreshing. Shao Jian couldn't help but sigh, "It's really good tea!" ”
When the old man heard this, he asked curiously, "What's so good?" ”
Hearing the old man's question, Shao Jian's head suddenly grew big, he had read some miscellaneous books, but he had never read tea books. Scratching his head embarrassedly, this scratch doesn't matter, it touched the injury. "Shhhhhh With a gasp, Shao Jian grinned in pain.
Seeing Shao Jian's appearance, the old man didn't want to ask again, and said to Lin Xue, who had just returned to the living room after cleaning up: "Help Shao Jian clean up the wound, replace the herbs, and then take him to the guest room to rest, he has been tired for the past two days." ”
Shao Jian hurriedly thanked, "Thank you, grandpa." ”
The old man laughed and said, "Since you call me grandpa, then I can't give you a meal and leave you outside!" ”
Shao Jian smiled. Then with Lin Xue's support, he went to the guest room, and Lin Xue said softly: "You wait here first, and I'll go get the medicine." ”
"Hmm...
Looking at the delicate figure of Lin Xue who hurriedly walked out, Shao Jian was moved in his heart. If it weren't for their grandparents, maybe my body would have been cold. I was too tired for the past two days, and after a while, Shao Jian fell asleep deeply.
Lin Xue walked in with a box.
"Shao..." Just wanted to say hello to Shao Jian, but seeing that Shao Jian was already asleep, Lin Xue forcibly held the other son in his mouth.
Looking at Shao Jian's ordinary face with a smile on his face, Lin Xue couldn't help but look stupid.
After a while, shaking her head as if she wanted to wave what she was thinking to the back of her mind, Lin Xue took out the herbs and gauze in the box, and skillfully changed the medicine for Shao Jian.
Maybe it was because he was too tired in the past two days, and Lin Xue was very light when she changed the dressing, so Shao Jian didn't wake up. Only occasionally frowned at the pain.
Lin Xue's level of changing the medicine was really good, and after a while, Shao Jian was given the medicine. Looking at the sleeping Shao Jian, thinking about Shao Jian's injury, Lin Xue's eyes softened.
Since he was a child, he studied medicine under the teaching of his grandfather, and when he grew up, he treated and saved people in the mountains, Lin Xue has seen too many patients and heard too many tortured people, but the man or boy in front of him has never been * after meeting himself, the pain, Lin Xue dare not imagine, a person who almost died refuses to make a sound, what kind of tenacious willpower does this require?
