V3.Chapter 43 (1/2)
In the eyes of the crowd full of curiosity and expectation, Cao Ya stretches out her plump and thin hands, and uncovers the oil paper clumsily, which are far more than those little girls of this age that Wei Changying has seen.
Because the crunchy oiled paper of a long time ago, along with her movements, has fallen into pieces on the valuable gold filigree brocade in mingpeitang.
But at the moment, no one has the intention to pay attention to this point, and they all keep their eyes on the fall of the last layer of oiled paper
”What is this?”
Seeing the things in the oil paper clearly, everyone in the hall was stunned!
”Hiss...” Wei Changying narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned back, looked at Mu Chunmian coldly, and said, ”master mupu, together, your mother and daughter, are you here to amuse us?”
When she said that, she also glanced at Shen Lun coldly - Shen Lun was sweating like rain!
But even he was shocked to have nothing to say by the last thing revealed in the oiled paper. At the moment, although he was afraid of offending the young lady due to his poor work, he didn't know how to explain -
on the oiled paper, it was a rag.
It's not only rags, but also has been stained with blood, oil or other dirt for many days. Because it's too long to see the true color of the cloth, even after it's opened, it doesn't have any peculiar smell But anyway, it's a rag! And it's the kind that I'm afraid beggars are too lazy to pick up
It's not big. It's a little smaller than Cao Ya's palm. If it wasn't for Wei Changying and duanmuxinmiao, they would even have to let people come to see it!
Wei Changying was angry and asked coldly, ”take a piece of rag and exchange it for three thousand liang of gold. It's not because Cao family castle has been doing business for a long time in private. Even Shen family dare to make a mistake?”
When she said this, there was silence in the hall, but after a rest, some people didn't understand it. Cao Ya opened her eyes and said with milk: ”not only rags, but also needles!” As she said, she came up naturally and held up the oilpaper for Wei Changying to see.
Wei Changying frowns and looks down It took her a long time to see that there was indeed a fine needle on the dirty rag. Although the needle was sucking, it was quite long, and the color was dim, and she could not see what the material was Looking at Miao for a moment, duanmuxin said: ”this is a needle for acupuncture Is it a bone needle? ”
Next wood spring sleep respectfully way: ”Duanmu miss good eyesight, this is bone needle really.”
Duanmuxin Miao suddenly moved and said: ”it seems to be made of ordinary animal bones. Its toughness and firmness are far less than the silver or gold needles used normally! Uncle in the end is uncle, can use such bone needle to give needle unexpectedly! ”
After winning a meal, Wei finally reminded her, ”is it a common bone needle? Is it worth three thousand liang of gold? ”
The topic turns back to gold again - only listen to Mu Chunmian's long sleep: ”don't be angry with young lady and Duanmu, and let the little lady explain the reason of these three thousand liang of gold: the humanity that left these things in those days, this rag, was his brother's death, he had no time to collect it, he could only cut off a skirt as a memorial. This bone needle, however, is not his, but his elder sister, in order to cure his nephew, specially asked for it These things may be worthless for others, but for Ji Shenyi or miss Duanmu, there are not many golden decisions - because all the people who die in Xiliang are buried together with the exiles who have died violently for many years, and there are no separate tombstones. It's impossible to find it back after so many years! ”
Duanmuxinmiao suddenly changed color and said: ”relics?! The remains of my master's family? ”
Mu Chunmian nodded: ”not bad! Although we can't find the bones, we can build a tomb with these things, right? ”
”How many of these do you have?” Duanmuxinmiao's subconscious question.
Mu Chunmian didn't answer, but Wei Changying, who looked on coldly, suddenly asked, ”as you said, Ji Gu has really passed away? Ten years ago, you didn't deceive me, Shen Shi, to inquire about people? ”
”As Madame Shao said All the old people in the castle said so, and the people in your family have confirmed it personally. ”
”So why didn't you talk about these relics a decade ago?” Wei Changying asked with a sneer!
Being reminded by her, duanmuxinmiao also woke up and clapped his hands and said: ”good! Since it's a relic left by my martial uncle and other relatives of my master Why didn't you mention it? ”
Mu Chunmian smiled bitterly and said: ”three thousand liang of gold, even the little lady and miss Duanmu think that there are many people of this status, let alone I and other rural Untouchables? At that time, it was the last stronghold leader. It was just a joke. Naturally, I didn't dare to follow the premise of Shen's family. ”
