A legendary happy life

Chapter 3

The next day, after school, I ran to the Antique Street and went straight to the "Shu Yufang" in the innermost corner. I found out yesterday that this is the only shop in the city that has gambling stones.

Betting on stones is also betting on jadeite. This skill is extremely ancient and can be traced back to Chu State 2000 years ago. The most famous one is the legend of 'Heshibi'.After more than 2000 years of precipitation, cutting out the cocoons, and removing the chaff, many image metaphors have been born. "Immortals are hard to break an inch of gold and jade", "one knife for heaven and one knife for hell", "see more and buy less", "prefer to buy a line rather than a piece", etc., are very vivid metaphors.

Betting on stones, betting on stones, the key lies in 'gambling'.

Entering the 'Shu Yufang', the clerk immediately stepped forward to greet you enthusiastically. "Hello, what do you want to see? We have all kinds of jade here, including semi-finished products, bracelets, jade pendants, and finished jade carvings."

Time was precious and I was so lazy that I went straight to the wall and asked, "Where are all the woolen materials here?"

"Little brother wants to gamble with stones?"

"No?" Xu Nanyu asked back.

"No, it's not impossible, it's just that it's rare to see people as young as you come to ask." The clerk quickly waved his hands and replied: "The wool is all here, if you like it, let me know."

"Let me take a look first." Jade wool is the thing he has been in contact with the most in the past ten years. The so-called love grows with time, and he cannot deny that his love for jade will be lower than his love for antiques. "What's the price?"

"This piece is [-], the price is the same."

A piece of Xinchangkou, the performance is not very good, and the asking price is [-] if it weighs less than [-] kilograms?He took a rough look and found that the gambling wasn't very big.Pointing to the next piece, he asked, "What about this one?"

"This is twenty thousand."

Twenty thousand?With a wry smile, there is still a big gap in his funds.

The clerk saw that his expression was wrong, rolled his eyes, pointed to the scattered woolen materials in the corner, and said: "These are worth tens of thousands, and those are less than ten thousand yuan. As for the ones worth hundreds of thousands, you can only find the boss."

This is a price reminder in disguise. Xu Nanyu smiled. He just took a look at the ones in the corner with less than [-] yuan. It's not that his vision is too high, but the quality is really poor.He also relied on his eyesight to gamble on stones, but he didn't have the clairvoyant eyes mentioned in those novels. If he had money, he wouldn't mind cutting two pieces for fun, but now he was short of money and couldn't afford to play.

I asked about the approximate price of woolen materials, and walked out of the 'Shu Yufang' shaking my head. Perhaps it was because of my bad mood that affected my luck, and I found nothing when I wandered around until dark.

After returning home and eating, I turned off the light and rested after reading a book. The next day after school, I went to the antique street to try my luck again, and found nothing again.This has been the case for several days in a row. I have made great progress in observing Lin Guo, and the more I look at it, the more I am satisfied. I called Lin Guo to my house to repair the broken water pipe on Saturday. He went out to play and ran to the next house.

"Grandma Sun, Grandma Sun."

After only two knocks, the door opened from the inside, revealing a kind-hearted old woman behind her.The old woman looked at him lovingly and joked: "I thought it was some little monkey disturbing people's dreams in the middle of the night, but it turned out to be you little monkey."

"Grandma Sun, I'm already fifteen, how can I still be a little monkey?" The old lady watched him grow up and took good care of the two mothers and children. What can the neighbors do for her? If you rush forward, you will be loved and famous by everyone.

"You, you are just a little monkey, come in." Serving the snacks made by myself, he sat down and asked, "Tell me, what do you want with my old lady?" An old woman in her sixties has lost her husband for more than twenty years I have no children and have never remarried, so I just pass the boredom by teasing the juniors when I have nothing to do.

"What did Grandma Sun say about how powerful I am? Why can't I come over and chat with you?" She pursed her lips and acted like a baby, making Granny Sun chuckle again.

"Oh, this little mouth is sweet." The old lady Sun, who has lived for most of her life, is shrewd and has a clear mind. Looking at Xu Nanyu's blinking eyes, she just chatted with him about something.

In terms of endurance, Xu Nanyu, who lived another ten years, is no match for her, she can't hold back after just a cup of tea.Twitching, he said, "Grandma Sun, Xiaoyu asks you something."

"What? Finally can't help but tell the truth?"

"Grandma Sun, nothing can be hidden from your eyes." Mrs. Sun is a well-known warm-hearted person in the street. I like to consult with her for ideas. "Grandma Sun, it's really up to you to do this, it can't happen without you."

"What's so serious?" The old lady had to be serious now. She had studied for a few years when she was a child, she had been enlightened, and she was educated, so she could think farther than ordinary old ladies.

"I want to ask you to persuade my mother to remarry. The person who wants to remarry believes that you have the bottom line." The old lady is the most trusted person of Luo's mother.Sometimes it is inconvenient to say to the son, I will say to the old lady.Xu Nanyu has always opposed his mother Luo's remarriage, so it is inevitable that there will be bumps in this sudden disguise, but with the old lady's consolation, it will not be a problem.

"Xiaoyu, haven't you always opposed your mother's remarriage?" There was a trace of doubt in the kind eyes.

"Grandma Sun, you also know that I had a car accident a while ago, probably because I went around the gate of hell and figured out a lot of things. My mother has worked hard for me all her life. As a son, I don't know how to be considerate. That would be too unfilial. While you are still young and have a lot of time, if you find happiness one day earlier, you will have one more day of happiness. Uncle Lin is also a hard-working person, and he has a lot of burdens, but his character is placed there, and his mother entrusts him I don’t worry, no matter how bad the situation is, it won’t be as bad as it is now.” As soon as the new year comes, there will be rumors of real estate acquisitions.

"It's your mother's blessing that Xiaoyu can figure it out. She didn't love you for nothing. Don't worry, leave this matter to me, and I will guarantee that it will come to fruition."

"Then thank you Grandma Sun." She rubbed her head in embarrassment. "Grandma Sun, you can't tell my mother that I came to see you, otherwise she will get angry and beat me."

"You kid, when did your mother ever annoy you?"

"That's not the case yet." People have tempers, and rabbits bite people when they are anxious. If Luo's mother knows that her son is plotting her to score twice, maybe the volcano will erupt if she is not careful. If the year does not explode, it will explode, won't it be earth-shattering? "By the way, Uncle Lin will trouble Grandma too."

The old lady patted her chest to show that it was on her body.Everyone can see Lin Guo's thoughts, how can he not cooperate with all his strength?

After solving Luo's mother's life-long event, Xu Nanyu's hanging heart was relieved. Perhaps her true mood brought luck. The next day, she found another leak in the Antique Street, not much, only about 1000 yuan.

I have accumulated 5000 yuan in funds, and I am aiming at the opportunity to play the second largest game. Unfortunately, this opportunity cannot be waited and waited for. There is no way to think about it, so I have to temporarily care about Grandma Sun's progress.

"What are you in a hurry for?" The old lady gave him a sideways look. "You also know your mother's temperament. If I walk up to the door and speak out like this, your mother will definitely jump out of the window in fright."

"Grandma, I'm not in a hurry to let you drink the wedding wine? The end of the year is almost here, and I still want to have a happy New Year." Pulling her to shake, he acted like a baby.

The old lady was so annoyed by him that she had no choice but to surrender: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, I'll go over tonight to check on your mother."

"Still exploring? Haven't you been exploring for a few days?"

The old lady was not happy. "Hey, I said you kid has been here for nine years, and you are in a hurry for a while?"

"Grandma~~" repeated voices.

"All right, all right, I'll give you a letter tonight." Blinking her eyes and looking at her, the old lady sighed and said, "I'm really scared of you, brat." She gave him an angry look and said, "Wait here Come on, I'll go find your mother here." Turning around, he took out a wooden box from the room and opened it. "These are some comic books left by your grandpa Ouyang. It may take me a long time to go back and forth, so you can use them to pass the time. By the way, snacks and drinks can be taken from the refrigerator by yourself."

"Okay, grandma, go and come back quickly, I'll wait for your good news." Lying by the door, he waved the door enthusiastically, and returned to the room until he could no longer see the figure. I'm really interested.Lilliputian books, also known as comic books, are of course not popular nowadays, but just released in the 50s and [-]s. They all tell stories about the journey of the Red Army, and there are also some fables. The printed layout is not as good as it is now, but it is better Rareness is better than being appropriate to the real life at the time.For people born in that era, these are distant real memories.

After waiting for two hours, Mrs. Sun came back. Xu Nanyu jumped up and asked, "Grandma, how is it? What did my mother say?"

The old lady suppressed her laughter, proudly said: "How can the old lady be successful if she goes out?"

"Really? What did my mother say?"

"Your mother said to think about it."

"Think about it?" His eyes dimmed. "Isn't that half done?"

"What's half done? You brat, looking down on your grandma so much?" He glared at him angrily, and couldn't help laughing again: "Your mother's sex is like this, and if you don't bluntly refuse to say 'consider it', it means this Things are going to happen, this matter has already completed more than half, and the next half is up to you."

"Rely on me?" He didn't have the courage to persuade Luo's mother to 'score twice', isn't it obvious? "I dare not, Grandma Sun has to rely on you."

"Why do you rely on me? I didn't ask you to tell your mother clearly that your mother's disapproval is because you did not agree before. She is really thinking about your wishes. As long as you agree, she will have nothing to do." I'm worried, as long as you show such a little bit of agreement, how could it be possible to have me these few days?" After all, after living for most of his life, this person is more considerate than young people think.

Scratching his head, thinking about it, he replied after a while, "Then grandma, what should I do?"

"It's not beautiful if it's too obvious, you just do it like this... like this... do this again..."
