Lan Feiyang followed Guo Anni forward for a few dozen meters, then turned right and entered a small street with low buildings on both sides and old stalls.
This is a relatively early pedestrian street, with various stalls selling walnuts, candies, snacks, underwear, shoes, flower seeds, porcelain, etc. Some stall owners will also shout once or twice from time to time to boast or show off their business.
Walking through it, the rich atmosphere of life of the urban citizens comes to your face, making people feel lively and friendly.
Guo Anni and Lan Feiyang walked in the middle of the street without looking away, occasionally giving way to bicycles, tricycles, and motorcycles.
This road reminded her of the years before studying in the United States eight years ago. At that time, she often walked on similar small streets, shopped, and even worked hard to practice stalls...
When he once again pulled over to a stall selling carvings to let a speeding tricycle pass, Lan Feiyang's eyes were suddenly attracted by an off-white and reddish jade ring with a simple shape and slightly larger than a keychain.
Stopped.
Because this ring is very similar to the jade ring he wears, but it's just a little dirty.
"Mr. Guo, wait a minute." Lan Feiyang reached out and picked up the ring and called out.
He wanted to take a closer look at the ring and wondered if it had anything to do with his own jade ring.
Guo Anni, who was walking forward, turned around when she heard the shout and saw him squatting in front of the stall holding a ring that looked like jade but not jade, so she turned back. "What? Do you like this? Don't look at it, it seems quite quaint.
But it’s probably not the real thing.”
The female stall owner in her fifties was unhappy: "Who says it's not the real thing? Even if this jade ring is not top-quality, it is really an ancient relic dug out of the ground after all."
"How do you know it's really an ancient relic dug out of the ground?" Guo Anni smiled faintly.
She knew that some people would make up anything in order to make things fake, and would use various means to deliberately make things look antique. "Did you dig it up?"
The female stall owner rolled her eyes slyly: "Although it's not me, it was dug out by a distant relative of mine when he was digging his mother's grave in the first half of the year."
"Really?" Lan Feiyang asked subconsciously. "Huh..." Guo Anni suddenly bent down and took the ring from Lan Feiyang's hand.
This color, this texture, this texture, this weight... Isn't this the ring that the child wore on his chest? How did it appear here? Did the child sell it out of helplessness when he had no money, or something happened?
?Or is it a similar piece?
Thinking of Guo Anni asking calmly: "How much do you want to sell this ring?"
"Four thousand and eighty." Seeing that Guo Anni looked like a wealthy owner, the female stall owner said with an estimate.
"Are you robbing money?" Lan Feiyang stood up disdainfully, "Don't fool me, I know this is not real jade."
Once, his aunt hid this piece of jade from him while he was taking a shower and wanted to sell it. But when he took it to the jade and antique shop in the county town, they said it was not real, so he gave it back to the crazy guy.
Flying blue.
He threw it out coldly: "Isn't it just a broken stone that looks like jade? It feels like a lost treasure."
Lan Feiyang didn't care whether it was real jade or not, he only knew that it was the only souvenir left to him by his mother who had been with him for more than ten years.
The female stall owner couldn't help feeling guilty. She knew that this was not a good jade - how could jade be so easy to hand? Although many people came to the stall to look at it, none of them were willing to buy it.
But no matter what, the ring looked really primitive, and it was indeed dug out of the mountains by her distant relatives. She couldn't help but made a gamble: "The price is one thousand and eighty. If you want it, take it, or leave if you don't want it."
.”
"Mr. Guo, let's go." Lan Feiyang clapped his hands and said. If it's a hundred yuan, he might want it - after all, this is not a real jade ring, nor is it the piece left to him by his mother. In addition, if it is really just a jade ring not long ago,
Digging it out of the ground has nothing to do with his grandmother's house.
If it weren't for the ancient aura, this kind of imitation jade product could be bought for twenty or thirty yuan at most.
"One thousand yuan." Guo Honglian stroked the jade ring that was not very smooth with her slender fingers and said calmly, "I want one thousand yuan. I thought that although it is not real jade, it is still quite old after all. To put it bluntly,
It's a fake from the ancients. If you don't want to sell it, just keep it."
"Okay, okay, I think you know your stuff, so I'll sell it to you." The female stall owner rolled her eyes twice and finally relented.
After all, in the past few months, the highest price paid was only 360.
"Mr. Guo, don't..." Lan Feiyang didn't understand why Guo Anni bought this ring. Did she really like this ancient fake? Or maybe she had seen this ring of hers before and thought it was hers.
?
She doesn't have anything to do with her grandmother's family? Lan Feiyang thought, and his heart skipped a beat.
Guo Anni ignored him, threw down ten pink bills, and left with a simple jade ring.
"This ring reminds me of someone and something." When Lan Feiyang caught up, Guo Anni said with a slight sigh, "When you go back, clean it carefully and put it in the decorative cabinet in my study."
"Yeah. Okay." Lan Feiyang nodded. But he was confused in his heart: Who is it? What is it? Is it really related to my grandma's family?
Guo Anni remained silent all the way, and her mood seemed to be even more depressed and heavy.
Because she was in a bad mood, when she was socializing with an old client at night, Guo Anni got drunk after three glasses of red grapes. Thanks to Lan Feiyang and Zhang Yong standing outside the private room, they went in to help her out when she heard her call.
After returning to the villa, Lan Feiyang asked Aunt Liu to make sobering soup while helping Guo Anni, who was staggering drunkenly, upstairs and put her on the bed.
After that, she went to the bathroom to twist a hot towel and wipe her face. After wiping her face, Guo Anni shouted that she was thirsty and wanted to drink tea. Lan Feiyang put down the towel and went to make scented tea. At this time, Aunt Liu brought in the hangover soup and expressed concern
Feed her and drink most of it.
Seeing that Guo Anni didn't want to drink anymore and wanted to lie down and rest, Aunt Liu had no choice but to go out with the soup bowl and asked Lan Feiyang to sit by the bed and watch over her carefully.
Lan Feiyang looked at the sleeping beauty-like Guo Anni with flushed cheeks on the bed, feeling pity and love for her.
Mr. Guo, why are you unhappy today? Is it that Chen Ziji? You seem to be unhappy after seeing him.
Have you fallen in love with him? How can an arrogant man with eyes on the top of his head, a flirt, be worthy of your love?
After sleeping for a while, Guo Anni suddenly woke up and vomited. Lan Feiyang quickly brought the trash can and patted Guo Anni on the back.
After she finished vomiting, I gave her water to rinse her mouth, and then I twisted a towel to wipe her face. Then I helped her lie down and covered her with a quilt.
Then I cleaned out the vomit, mopped the floor, opened the doors and windows to disperse the alcohol-smelling air, and sprayed air freshener. When I was done, I closed the doors and windows again, and turned the air conditioner to the highest temperature to quickly warm up the bedroom.
