The object lay in the young man's white hands, glowing slightly with the light from the window.
Suddenly, the young man shook his hand and the thing slipped down.
Seeing this, Su Qingluan subconsciously reached out to catch it. When she caught it, she found that it was a piece of blue ring-shaped jade ornaments with complex and delicate patterns carved on it.
This jade is delicate and oily when placed in the palm of your hand, and it has no impurities at all. Even a novice like Su Qingluan, who has not studied jade, can see that this jade has one word written all over it: expensive.
Su Qingluan's tense shoulders relaxed: if this fell to the ground and broke into pieces, she would be heartbroken to death - it could be exchanged for a lot of money!
Yes, she is so vulgar.
For a person who needs money everywhere but doesn’t have enough, there is no shame in this.
When she was completely relaxed, she saw clearly that the jade was still wearing a thin chain - even if she hadn't subconsciously reached out to catch it, it wouldn't have fallen to the ground.
What should I do... She seems to have done something particularly unnecessary.
Do you want to take your hand back?
Or just pretend that nothing happened?
Su Qingluan thought a little tangledly.
Su Qingluan's reaction made the young man laugh out loud: "My benefactor is pure and kind-hearted. I wanted to give this jade to my benefactor as a thank you gift. I don't need to worry about it."
As he said that, he placed the jade ring and the delicate chain in Su Qingluan's palm: "It's just a small gift, please don't refuse."
Su Qingluan looked at the jade in her hand with some embarrassment: "This is too precious..." Although she was not as upright as doing good deeds without leaving her name behind, she did not want to take advantage of the situation.
It's just to help expel the foreign matter stuck in the trachea. Even at the price of the most evil private clinic, this level of "medical service" is definitely not worth the price of the jade in hand.
not to mention……
Su Qingluan glanced at the surrounding servants, especially the oldest, middle-aged servant woman.
After the boy took out the ring-shaped jade ornament, an expression of surprise and uneasiness immediately appeared on her face. She stared at Su Qingluan, fearing that she would accept the jade.
Isn't it a priceless family heirloom?
Thinking of this, Su Qingluan felt that the jade in her hand suddenly became much heavier.
Never, never break it in your own hands! ! When Su Qingluan looked at the jade again, she had only this thought.
When the young man heard Su Qingluan's words, he smiled casually.
This smile was different from the gentle smile that showed gratitude to Su Qingluan at first, but with a bit of imperceptible arrogance: "You saved my life, so you are certainly worthy of this piece of jade."
"But Master..." the middle-aged servant woman reminded anxiously, "That piece of jade is something you usually wear close to your body. If..."
"It doesn't matter." The young man turned to look at the middle-aged servant woman, leaving only the back of Su Qingluan's head. "I will never take back the thank you gift you gave me."
Su Qingluan always felt that in the short moment when the young man turned back to speak, he and the middle-aged servant woman opposite seemed to have had some high-dimensional invisible conversation that he was not aware of.
Otherwise, she really had amnesia and skipped certain plots.
Otherwise, when the young man turned his head again, the middle-aged servant woman looked at herself up and down, then showed a "suddenly understood" expression, and said with a smile: "Since it is the master's heart, this young gentleman Just accept it."
When she said this, her smile was particularly sincere and kind, and the faint defensiveness and insecurity that Su Qingluan felt before disappeared.
...So what did she miss?
However, Su Qingluan lowered her head and looked at the jade jewelry in her hand, and still didn't want it.
The reason is simple, it's not practical.
Such exquisite and gorgeous jade ornaments are too eye-catching in such a relatively "remote" small village.
The only time it can be used is to go to a pawn shop to exchange some money, but it is inevitable that such places will be severely underpriced.
Su Qingluan didn't want to do this kind of business where losses were visible to the naked eye.
So Su Qingluan declined again: "No, I didn't do anything worthy of a piece of jade." So can you give her something affordable as a thank you gift, such as gold and silver notes?
She is a great vulgar person!
Seeing Su Qingluan's reaction, the young man thought for a while and said:
"My surname is Lu, Xingsan, and my family has some connections in the Imperial Capital. Why don't you use this jade as a token? One day, if your benefactor encounters something that needs to be solved urgently and has no way out, you can go outside the east gate of the Imperial Capital. It's seven or eight miles away in Lujiazhuang. If you go there to find a man named 'Lu Zhong', I'll tell you it's a man named 'Lu San' and let you come and look for him."
Su Qingluan's heart moved: Although she was temporarily living in Huaxi Village, whether she wanted to really use her talents or just for a better life, she would inevitably go to a more prosperous place in the future.
Since we always want to go to a wider world, why can't it be the most prosperous imperial capital in a country?
Thinking of this, Su Qingluan smiled and bowed: "In that case, I won't refuse. Lu Langjun, don't always call me your benefactor. My surname is Su."
"It turns out to be Su Langjun." Lu San nodded slightly.
"No……"
Su Qingluan subconsciously wanted to deny it, but suddenly remembered that in the eyes of others, she was now dressed in men's clothing, so it was okay to call her "Mr."
Think about it again, according to the "big defense and small defense" theory of men and women in this era, if you admit that you are a woman, then you may have a lot of trouble to explain based on the "closeness" between you and the boy just now.
Thinking of this, Su Qingluan quickly shook her head: "No...it's nothing."
Su Qingluan carefully hung the jade around her neck and put it away close to her body.
The slightly cool touch of the jade ring moistens the skin, bringing a touch of refreshment in this hot summer day.
She exchanged a few words with the young man and his group. Seeing that the young man had been frightened and tortured, and looked tired, she turned around and left.
After leaving the door, Su Qingluan returned to the private room where she had just met Shopkeeper Liang - she had not forgotten that the original purpose of coming to Hongfu Building with Shopkeeper Liang was to get free money, ah no, to get money from Shopkeeper Liang. Recycle some second-hand stationery resources and reuse them.
As soon as he stepped into the threshold of the elegant room, he was greeted by shopkeeper Liang with a big gift that fell to the ground.
Su Qingluan was frightened for a moment, and quickly stopped the other foot that was about to step into the door, and said with some difficulty: "Shopkeeper Liang, what are you..."
Shopkeeper Liang stood up and sighed to Su Qingluan with lingering fear: "If Miss Su hadn't made a decisive decision to save the owner of the group of people today, my restaurant would have been in trouble!"
Su Qingluan:......
Although the business may be affected for a period of time, is it so exaggerated to say "bad luck and bad luck"...
