Rebirth Jade Fate

Chapter 5 When

And in an alley not far from here, a woman was holding the hand of a little girl, and beside her was a manservant with a young man on his back, staring at the passers-by with tears in his face. Seeing that they were about to leave the city, the woman bowed her head. Said: "Kowtow to your grandfather!"

The little girl knelt down with sobs, and the manservant also put the boy down, and carefully helped him kneel down. The boy was pale and trembling, and kowtowed three times, biting his lips tightly with his teeth, and the little girl looked at her mother helplessly. .

The woman whispered: "Let's go back! Your grandfather has received your wishes!"

Wei Qingtong wore the jade around her neck, wrapped the box in her arms, and Wei Qingtong hid in the space. She put the bracelet on her hand and crawled out of the hole Wang Liniang dug.

Wei Qingtong's bracelet has a very good space. Last night, she was lucky enough to go in once under Wei Qingtong's leadership. There was a hazy area around it. She touched it with her hands, but found that those things were real, blocking her. What surprised her the most was that a water waterfall appeared in the air out of thin air, and fell vertically into the pool, and the water flowed into the white mist.

There was nothing on the two acres of land, but fortunately, the child Qingtong was obedient, moved a few tables and chairs in, and could play around them all day.

What surprised Wei Qingyu even more was that according to him, he could see outside.

Wei Qingyu's eyes widened, but she still couldn't see anything from the whiteness. It seemed that this was only applicable to the master, and she was a little disappointed.

Kyoto has always been the political and economic center of the country, no matter what era it is, it is very prosperous. Wei Qingyu came out not too late, after eating the food delivered by the servant girl.But at this time, there were already many people on the street.

Selling rouge and gouache, snacks, fruit, and various handicrafts, Wei Qingyu, who was visiting the ancient street for the first time, was dazzled by the sights, and she didn't remember her purpose until someone bumped into her accidentally.

She straightened her clothes, looked up, and found a pawn shop that looked pretty good.

She was the only customer in the pawnshop, and the desk was so high that she couldn't reach it even with her toes on it. Wei Qingzhen was speechless, isn't it "the customer is God", why is the pawnshop so inconsiderate of consumers, no wonder the business is so bad.

"Hey, is there anyone? I want to treat it as something!" Wei Qingjin tapped it with his hand.

The boy raised his head and frowned slightly. Could it be an auditory hallucination just now?

Wei Qingyu rolled his eyes, knowing that the other party didn't see her, "I'm at the bottom, your counter is too high."

"Hey, little guest officer, what do you want to be?"

"I," Wei Qingyu turned his head, directly dragged the chair for guests from the side, and stood on it.

The little fellow was stunned for a moment when he saw the child who suddenly appeared, and said, "Little sister is so smart!"

Wei Qingyu showed a sweet smile: "My little brother won the prize, you can read things?" The other party looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy. Although she didn't know much about ancient people, she also knew that being a thing is to read things. Identified.

"It depends on what to look at. Of course, expensive ones won't work. It's just that I have been working for the master for a long time, so I still have some eyesight."

Wei Qingzhen shook his head and said: "Then you must not see it, I am a good baby, call your master out!"

Only then did the little boy start to look at the child, and found that she was wearing a half-new light green jacket and skirt, which looked fresh and elegant, but she was made of Nanjing brocade.

It is indeed not something that ordinary people can wear, so he hurriedly said: "Then you wait."

The little boy's master is a fat and fat elder with smiling eyes, which makes people feel good at first glance. When he saw the little girl standing on a chair looking at him, he smiled slightly and said apologetically, "It's all my shop's fault." , to make the little girl so tired!"

Wei Qingyu, who always respected the elders, felt embarrassed, "hehe" laughed twice and said, "Uncle, do you accept ancient boxes here?"

Wei Qingyu lowered his eyes with a little guilt.

The master was shocked by her "uncle". In ancient and modern times, regardless of gender, who doesn't like others to say that they are young?Although the little girl didn't say it clearly, that's what it means to call someone from the grandpa's generation an uncle~ right?
The master came back to his senses, and immediately smiled, no matter how unreasonable the term Wei Qingyu gave, "Oh? Show it to uncle."

God knows, in Wei Qingzhen's heart, the master is indeed just her uncle.

The little guy behind him shuddered, gave Wei Qingyu a weird look, cursed secretly as a "sycophant", and then obediently stood behind and watched.

Wei Qingzhen took out the box and handed it to the master carefully, as if it was always done.

The master took it and looked at it, but his face gradually became serious. After looking at it carefully, he took a sneak peek at Wei Qingyu.

Wei Qingyu's heart skipped a beat. With Wang's identity, it shouldn't belong to someone else. Could it be that this is really a treasure?
The master breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the clothes on Wei Qingyu's body. He was in this business, so he naturally knew that although the clothes on her were clean, they were expensive, and the clothes on her were half old and not new. The down-and-out young lady smiled and said, "How did the little girl think of being a box? Even a golden hairpin and a silver hairpin would be better?"

Wei Qingzhen controlled herself not to roll her eyes, but she thought about it, the key is that there are no sets of chairs and tables in the room, if some furniture were not too heavy, Wei Qingzhen would have wondered whether the members of the Wei family would not stay Next, the rest is the clothes of their siblings.

"That's all I have at home, and the rest are some clothes."

The master thought that all they had left was this box and clothes, and he sighed inwardly, feeling pity for her even more, "Why don't your parents come, it's too dangerous for you to come out alone with a child."

Wei Qingzhen bowed his head, and said with gnashed teeth: "My father is dead, my mother is sick, my younger brother is at home to take care of my mother, and my elder brother has gone out to find a living, only I have some free time."

The master didn't dare to ask any more, and comforted him: "Don't be sad, since you have brother to support you, the hard times will eventually pass."

Wei Qingzhen nodded.

"The pattern on this box is vividly engraved, but it is just a box. If you are alive, this old man can only give you this number. If you are dead, this is the number." He stretched out a finger and shook it, He stretched out another palm to compare.

Five hundred dollars?
Wei Qingyu felt more comfortable, five hundred is five hundred, it's better than nothing, but what can five hundred buy?It seems that she still has to go to the grain store, so she has to learn about the prices in this world.

Wei Qingzhen nodded, "Damn it!"

The master saw that she was straightforward, and quickly took out three pieces of silver and put them in her little hand, "Here, one piece is three taels, and two pieces is one tael. When you go out, it's better to have loose change."

Wei Qingyu felt like being hit by a pie, this... this... this is five taels?
If it wasn't for the concern about the two of them, Wei Qingyu would have jumped up and yelled a long time ago. She doesn't understand ancient currency, but she has watched the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions". Wang Xifeng gave the grandma 20 taels of silver, which is enough to live for a year. But a quarter a quarter.

Wei Qingyu thanked her with a grin, and walked out with a feverish head. Standing on the street and being blown by the cold wind, she came back to her senses. From ancient times to the present, businessmen pursue profit, even if there is a kind-hearted businessman, he will give her a flat book at most. Obviously, the old man who lived most of his life was not such a person.

Wei Qingyu was a little annoyed at once, she knew that she should bargain. It seems that these series of things have made her head confused these past few days. If she shows her bargaining skills, she can at least cut two or two more.

The export was promised, not to mention that she got the money, Wei Qingzhen had no choice but to walk away regretfully.

The boy inside looked at the box curiously, "Master, you are so kind-hearted that you paid five taels of silver to buy this box." Thinking about it, he can't earn five taels a year.

The master knocked the boy's head hard, "Where do you put your mind? It's a skill to keep you by your side, huh? Do you think this is an ordinary box? Don't look at the material, just look at the carving on it. Not only five taels of silver, but if it is operated well, the profit will not be less than ten times."

The little guy opened his mouth wide, he thought the master was kind-hearted...

The master saw the boy's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Master is indeed showing kindness this time. If someone else comes, I will give him four taels at most... You have to remember that there is a bottom line for showing kindness. We are businessmen. No matter what, you can’t do a loss-making business.”

The young man corrected his expression, and answered "Yes" respectfully.

Wei Qingyu carefully avoided the crowd, took out the bracelet, and called out in a low voice: "Brother, brother, come out!"

Wei Qingtong looked around in confusion, Wei Qingyu put the bracelet on his hand, and held his hand tightly, "Brother, you must follow me closely, you know?"

Wei Qingtong stared blankly at her sister, Wei Qingyu sighed, squatted down, and said patiently: "My brother wants to say 'yes', come on, tell my sister 'yes—'"

Wei Qingzhen repeated it three or four times, and it took 2 minutes for Wei Qingtong to timidly say "Yes". It was not very accurate, but Wei Qingtong still understood.She smiled and gave him a big kiss on the face, "Brother is awesome!"

It was the first time that Wei Qingtong saw so many people, her dull eyes moved slightly, and her little hand tightly grasped her sister's.

Wei Qingyu looked around curiously, and led Wei Qingtong to walk slowly. In everyone's eyes, this look was like a country girl who entered the city for the first time. Moreover, the two siblings were dressed in plain clothes, and they were hurt by many days of blows. Hungry, the faces of both of them are yellow and thin, this kind of thing happens every day, everyone glanced at it and didn't pay attention to it, what to do or what to do.

Wei Qingtong happily pulled Wei Qingtong to stand in front of the steamed stuffed bun booth, "Brother, shall we eat something delicious?" She sniffed, as she hadn't smelled meat for a long time.

Wei Qingtong grinned at her sister.

Wei Qingyu unceremoniously pulled his younger brother to sit aside, and shouted: "Boss, here are two meat buns!"

"okay!"

Wei Qingtong licked his fingers, his eyes were shining brightly, and he said inarticulately: "Eat."
