She has no image burden of being a beauty at all.
However, now that she is like this, everyone will think that she is genuine and not pretentious.
For a moment, many unmarried men cast eager glances at her.
Mo Feiyang frowned tightly and took a step forward to block those malicious gazes.
At this time, Cui Mi, who was standing there, was stunned.
Was he dazzled just now? How could he see his Yue Niang? At this moment, Xie Yun's repeated inquiries beside him brought him back to his senses, "Mr. Cui, are you okay? Mr. Cui?"
Cui Mi noticed the situation at the moment, barely suppressed his anxious emotions, and shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Since Miss Han has doubts about my judgment, I will verify it in public."
He called a servant from the garden and gave him some instructions.
Soon, the boy came back with the things he wanted.
On the tray, there was a bowl of water and a fire starter.
"Real jade glass is impervious to water and fire. Water and fire will make it even clearer and more brilliant. Just wait and see if you don't believe me."
After Cui Mi finished speaking, he picked up the bowl of water and poured it layer by layer from the top of the jade glass. With the nourishment of the clear water, the jade glass seemed to be washed away with a layer of dirt, becoming clearer and more transparent.
In the sunlight, it is as crystal clear as glass.
This scene really amazed everyone, but the next scene was even more shocking!
Cui Mi lit the fire stick and dropped it on the petals of the jade glass flower.
"Ah! Will this burn to death?"
Someone couldn't help but worry.
But what this man worried about did not happen.
When the flames came into contact with the petals, instead of being burned black and curled up, the petals were illuminated by the flames and glowed brightly.
Even Shen Yizhi was a little surprised.
She felt that she should give the little beggar some compensation. She had really gotten a great deal by buying such a magical flower for only five taels of silver.
Cui Mi looked at Han Baoqin, "How is it? Does Miss Han believe it now?"
Han Baoqin said nothing, standing stiffly where she was. She suddenly rushed forward, snatched the fire starter from his hand, and threw it on Yu Liuli.
"You!" Cui Mi was shocked and angry.
The flames spread to Yu Liuli's entire body.
Han Baoqin sneered repeatedly: "I knew it! The so-called invulnerability is all a lie! You are deliberately-"
Her voice stopped abruptly and her eyes widened, as if she had seen something incredible.
I saw that the entire jade glass was covered in flames, but the flames only lightly covered its surface and did not penetrate into its interior at all.
It looks as if it is covered with a coat of flames.
A flower in flames.
It is bright and dazzling.
Such a beautiful scene shocked everyone present.
The most excited one among them was Xie Yun. If he could buy this jade glass and present it to the imperial concubine, he might not have to stay in such a remote town anymore.
"Impossible! This is impossible! It must be fake! Fake! ..."
Han Baoqin was muttering like crazy. Although her face was covered by a curtain, the sinister malice in her tone still made people feel frightened.
Seeing that she was so madly rushing towards Yu Liuli and trying to destroy it, Cui Mi and Xie Yun were horrified and wanted to stop her.
Shen Yizhi arrived first after she started later. With a flash of her body, the jade glass was no longer there, but was held in her arms.
Han Baoqin was kicked out by her, uttered a scream, and fell heavily to the ground.
Unfortunately, no one present sympathized with her.
Instead, they all moved away from her.
This woman is simply crazy!
Xie Yun glanced at her grimly and said, "Throw this crazy woman out and never let her set foot in Qunfang Garden again."
He immediately announced to everyone: "The most beautiful lady of this year's Beauty Gathering is Miss Shen's Jade Liuli."
This time, no one raised any objections.
Xie Yun turned to Shen Yizhi: "Miss Shen, according to convention, you can go to the private storehouse of the City Lord's Mansion to choose something. I wonder when you are free?"
He couldn't wait to buy the pot of jade glass.
Shen Yizhi was about to speak when Cui Mi came up to Han Baoluo and asked anxiously, "Miss, I have a few questions for you. Can you come to the pavilion over there and talk with me?"
Han Baoluo looked confused and puzzled. She didn't know this old gentleman, did she?
But he just helped Sister Zhizhi, and he didn't look like a bad person. Should she agree? She subconsciously looked at Shen Yizhi, wanting to seek her opinion.
Shen Yizhi nodded at her.
This old gentleman must have something to say, so it might be worth listening to him.
Several people came to the pavilion in the center of the lake.
This place is surrounded by water on three sides and is surrounded by a field of gorgeous lotus flowers. The way here is a bamboo bridge floating on the water, so there is no need to worry about being disturbed by others.
After everyone sat down, Cui Mi looked at Han Baoluo but didn't say anything for a long time.
Mo Feiyang said: "Old sir, if you have anything to say, just say it." What's going on with Xiao Luo'er who has been staring at him?
Cui Mi realized that she had lost her composure. She turned her head and covered her face with her sleeves. She wiped her eyes and calmed down. Then she turned her head and looked at Han Baoluo lovingly: "Child, is your mother... okay?"
There was a barely perceptible tremor in the voice.
Han Baoluo was surprised, and then said sadly: "My mother... passed away a long time ago."
Shen Yizhi held her shoulders and patted them gently, silently comforting her.
Han Baoluo noticed it, and a warm feeling suddenly surged in his heart.
In the past, whenever she thought of her mother's death, she would inevitably feel depressed. However, now that she has Sister Zhizhi and the others, she will definitely live a better life in the future. Her mother would be at peace if she were still alive.
Mo Feiyang looked at Shen Yizi with some jealousy. He should be the one who lent Xiao Luoer his shoulder to lean on when she was sad.
No other man or woman can compete with him for it.
However...well, Xiao Luoer is not familiar with him now, so she is wary of him. It will be fine once she gets familiar with him in the future.
On the other side, Cui Mi was shocked and inconsolable when he heard Han Baoluo say that her mother had passed away.
The grief was so clear and intense that everyone present could feel it.
I couldn't help but be surprised and suspicious.
Is there any connection between Mr. Cui and Han Baoluo's mother? As Cui Mi told them, they realized that there was more than just a connection between them, and the connection was even deeper! Cui Mi took out a piece of silk from his sleeve and unfolded it carefully.
On it, there was a picture of a young girl in her prime.
The girl, wearing a scarlet dress, gracefully emerged from the peach blossom forest, as beautiful as a fairy transformed from peach blossoms.
