Chapter 328: Fortune Telling and Treasure Appraisal
Ye Rou was sure that she had gotten the melon of "Zhao Yuyan was blackmailed" and after winning a lottery, she put the matter behind her.
As for Zhao Yuyan going to Jiang Chen to ask for money, Ye Rou was not worried at all.
After she gave the old leader an injection, she did not leave in a hurry.
Sun Xiaoxing was stunned when he saw her in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department.
"Xiao Rou, why haven't you left yet?"
...Of course it’s because of what happened this morning.
When Ye Rou thought about Jiang Chen catching her having an erotic dream and her calling his name in the dream, her cheeks felt hot and she lingered in the hospital, unwilling to leave.
Facing Sun Xiaoxing, Ye Rou simply said, "I've made an appointment with some friends to go out for a walk."
Seeing that Sun Xiaoxing looked unhappy and had obvious dark circles under his eyes, Ye Rou frowned.
"Didn't you get enough rest these days?"
"Oh——" Sun Xiaoxing sighed deeply.
Ye Rou was even more surprised.
The four girls in the hospital who have a good relationship with her are Yu Xiaomei who is cheerful, He Shuhui who is quiet, Chen Meng who is careful, and Sun Xiaoxing who is strong.
It has been almost a month since Ye Rou came to the hospital, and this is the first time she has seen Sun Xiaoxing sighing and looking worried.
Ye Rou's eyes turned slightly, thinking of what she had seen that day, and asked carefully, "Is it because of Xiao Heng?"
Sun Xiaoxing nodded.
Xiao Heng has been waiting for her to get off work every morning and evening these days. In order to avoid him, Sun Xiaoxing gets up early to go to work and leaves the hospital late at night.
Sun Xiaoxing didn't sleep well for several days.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she felt an extremely strong arm tightly bind her and drag her into the darkness.
Sun Xiaoxing was awakened every time. After a few days, he felt exhausted and his work, which used to be easy for him, started to go wrong.
Ye Rou snorted coldly.
She despised those who bullied women the most. She comforted Sun Xiaoxing and said, "Don't be afraid. If Xiao Heng comes again, I will beat her up."
Ye Rou waved her clenched fist.
Her wrists were slender and her clenched fists were white and tender, which inexplicably reminded Sun Xiaoxing of the white steamed buns her mother used to make.
Suddenly I felt hungry.
Seeing Sun Xiaoxing staring at her with his fists erect, Ye Rou shook her fist in confusion.
"Xiaoxing, what are you thinking about?"
"Steamed bun."
"ah?"
Ye Rou was bewildered. Weren't they talking about Xiao Heng? How did they bring up steamed buns?
Sun Xiaoxing realized what he had said and blushed as he explained, "I was saying that the canteen had steamed buns for lunch, which were quite delicious."
Are the steamed buns in the cafeteria delicious?
Ye Rou narrowed her eyes. Damn Xiao Heng, Sun Xiaoxing was so scared that he started talking nonsense.
"Xiaoxing, are you tired?"
Ye Rou heard from He Shuhui and others that Sun Xiaoxing had been taking over other people's shifts these days in order to get off work later.
Sun Xiaoxing was nervous the whole time, afraid that Ye Rou would worry, so he didn't tell the truth and just said, "It will be fine after this period of time."
Ye Rou shook her head and said disapprovingly, "If you continue like this, you'll be ruined."
Chen Meng ran over, "Ye Rou, someone is waiting for you outside."
Ye Rou knew that Zhou Nian and Zhou Liang had arrived. Her eyes fell on Sun Xiaoxing, and she suddenly said, "Xiaoxing, come with me. Let's go out for a walk and relax."
Sun Xiaoxing's mind moved slightly. It seemed that she had not stopped to rest for a long time.
Chen Meng saw her intention and cooperated: "You are not on duty this afternoon anyway, so go ahead and don't worry."
With one coaxing him and the other pulling him, Ye Rou dragged the confused Sun Xiaoxing into the car.
Ye Rou introduced: "This is Zhou Liang and Zhou Nian, they are from the same village as me."
"Hello." Sun Xiaoxing greeted.
Zhou Liang smiled brightly.
After he gained weight, his popularity became much better than before.
On the contrary, Zhou Nian looked much thinner this time and no longer looked like before.
Her skin was fair, her features were delicate, and she was naturally quiet. When she saw Sun Xiaoxing, she nodded and greeted him in a light voice, "Hello."
The jeep circled the Great Hall from a distance. Ye Rou glanced over there and saw soldiers with guns everywhere.
"What's going on over there?"
"Holding a national science and technology conference."
Ye Rou nodded, and suddenly remembered Professor Li, whom she had met twice.
The jeep stopped at the entrance of the alley and three people got out one after another.
The girls were shopping, and Zhou Liang didn't plan to follow them. He rolled down the car window and said, "Sister-in-law, Brother Jiang will pick you up later."
Ye Rou quickly said, "Don't let him come."
Zhou Liang shrugged, "Brother Jiang won't listen to me."
Sooner or later, we have to face it. Ye Rou said dejectedly, "I know."
Zhou Liang drove away.
Ye Rou opened the system and found a reward she had won.
[Lucky Treasure Appraisal - One-day limited-time trial card, you can see the future value of all objects.]
A cool feeling rushed into my eyes, making them feel slightly sour.
Ye Rou blinked uncomfortably, and then she felt a little better.
Her eyes moved down to the bracelet on her wrist.
This bracelet was bought for her by Jiang Chen from Grandma Song. It was a glass-type spring-colored jade. Ye Rou knew that jade bracelets were very valuable in later generations, but she didn't expect it to be so valuable.
When Ye Rou saw the string of numbers floating on the bracelet, her jaw almost dropped in shock.
¥20000000
Ye Rou thought she had counted wrong, so she counted twice to confirm.
That’s 20 million!
Ye Rou's right hand suddenly froze, and she couldn't put it down or release it.
This is 20 million!
My left hand supported my right wrist, but I no longer felt as casual as before and felt uncomfortable all over.
If it got cut, Ye Rou would be heartbroken.
She suddenly held her wrist, and Sun Xiaoxing and Zhou Nian looked over.
Sun Xiaoxing: "What's wrong? Is your wrist hurting?"
Ye Rou shook her head stiffly.
Zhou Nian: "Xiao Rou, if you don't feel well, we can go back and go shopping another day."
"No need." Ye Rou could only force herself to ignore the string of numbers and turned her wrist. "Look, it's really okay."
"Let's go." She pulled the two of them inside.
This alley is very lively. People outside are selling their homemade goods. As you walk inside, you will see more and more strange and bizarre things.
Ye Rou wanted to buy some gifts for her family and planned to do some shopping.
In her eyes, anything that is a tradable commodity has a price tag.
The stalls in the alleys mostly sell items for under ten yuan. Some are even deemed worthless and don't have prices listed at all, like homemade pickled vegetables, vegetables, and factory-processed snacks and products that won't last long.
Ye Rou looked around casually, and her eyes suddenly fell on an old man.
The old man had a limp, walked very slowly, dressed simply, and had messy hair.
Ye Rou was looking at the pipe in his mouth. It was thin and straight, about the size of a pen.
The palm-length pipe was carved with intricate patterns. Ye Rou had good eyesight and could tell that the pattern engraved on the pipe was a dragon.
The bowl was made of silver, only the size of a fingernail, and it was burning with tobacco, emitting a few wisps of light white smoke.
The cigarette holder is also made of silver and engraved with patterns.
In Ye Rou's eyes, a string of numbers was floating above the pipe.
¥:6000
This is the future price of silver pipes.
Ye Rou's gaze moved down to the brooch on the old man's chest.
The old man was wearing a black jacket. If you looked closely, you could see some silver lines engraved on the bottom. He had a bird-shaped brooch on his chest. The brooch was dull grey in color and looked ordinary, but the price hanging on it was extremely shocking.
¥7000000
Seven million!
Ye Rou was sure that this brooch must be an antique.
The value of the entire alley combined is not worth as much as this brooch.
The old man seemed to be an acquaintance in the alley, and people often greeted him.
"Uncle Gu, you are here."
"Um."
"What did you fancy today?"
The old man shook his head. "That's not funny at all."
The old man slowly passed by the three people, and Ye Rou withdrew her gaze.
After wandering around for half a day, Ye Rou spent fifteen yuan to buy a pearl brooch that would be worth 30,000 yuan in the future.
The butterfly-shaped brooch, inlaid with a round pearl, looks exquisite. Ye Rou bought it to give to her aunt.
Sun Xiaoxing paused, his tone revealing surprise: "What's going on up ahead?"
Ye Rou and Zhou Nian followed in and looked inside.
This long alley turns a corner and there is an even deeper alley.
Compared to the alley that Ye Rou and the others are walking in now, the light in this alley is dimmer because the walls on both sides are higher.
There are also many stalls with cloths on display, but it is much quieter than here.
No one was hawking, just sitting quietly in the shadows leaning against the wall.
The things on display were also messy and varied.
A disassembled radio, a gray, rickety table, rows of brightly colored figurines, small wooden objects, and a painting vendor...
From a distance, the alley seemed remote and dark, and Zhou Nian and Sun Xiaoxing were not sure whether to go in.
Ye Rou glanced around quickly, her fox eyes sparkling.
It’s nothing, just a lot of zeros!
