Su He didn't know much about pearls, but her mother in her previous life had bought a string of them. The pearls were much smaller than these, but they were said to be natural, so they were very expensive.
The sheer luster of the surface of the item in her hand clearly indicates that it must be a high-quality product!
She looked at Big Black with some surprise and asked, "Where did you find such a big pearl?"
Big Black didn't reply, but seeing that she liked it, it turned around and picked out another one.
"There's another one?" Su He quickly picked it up and looked at it; it was almost identical to the one from before.
It was only then that she noticed that both pearls had holes, indicating they were strung together.
Thinking of this, she quickly said to Big Black, "There should be more than two. Let's look again."
As he spoke, he squatted down and started rummaging through the leaves.
But this rummaging led to an unexpected surprise: among this unremarkable pile of leaves, they not only found ten pearls, but also two small yellow croakers.
Su He blushed with excitement; she hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise!
After turning the pile of leaves inside and out several times, and searching the rest of the basement again, and finding nothing, she knew that this was probably all there was.
At this moment, Su He also realized that someone must have hidden it on purpose, otherwise why would they put leaves in the basement?
Su He guessed that the person originally intended to hide two small yellow croakers. After all, a small yellow croaker weighs less than an ounce and its color is similar to that of a dry leaf, so it would probably be difficult to spot.
No one else would have thought that someone would hide something here, so the person who hid it was most likely the homeowner, who probably realized something and left a backup plan.
Those pearls must have fallen out when someone was rummaging through things later. It was originally a bracelet, but it was broken and that's what kept it. Now it's all hers.
Thinking of this, Su He was extremely excited. Could it be that she finally had the halo of a transmigrated woman?
Before she could be happy for long, Dahei started meowing again and pointed to the ornament in the corner.
Su He looked over at the sound and saw a stone-carved Pixiu. It didn't look worth much, which was probably why it was left behind.
Only then did she realize that these were the fun toys that Big Black had mentioned, and that he wanted her to help him carry them back. The beads from earlier were his reward.
But I never expected there to be other unexpected surprises.
Su He looked at the Pixiu that was almost as tall as her legs, and her mouth twitched. She didn't know what to say.
What kind of toy is this? Are you going to take it home and sleep on it?
And if she takes this to the police station, how will she explain it?
After thinking it over, Su He persuaded Da Hei to temporarily give up the idea, but still asked her to find a way to help move it back as soon as possible.
Su He was so full of things that her hands were sore, she could only say that she would try her best.
...
Because of the distance and the fact that they were delayed there, they got back to their dormitory quite late that night.
Seeing that she had returned so late, Tian Zhenzhen asked with concern, "Why did you come back so late from your relative's house?"
Su He smiled. Going to her relative's house was just an excuse she made up, but now she had to cover it up. So she thought for a moment and explained, "Actually, I'm not going to my relative's house. The villagers asked me to deliver a letter to their relative. I thought it was very close, but I later found out it was in the suburbs. I can't walk there, so it took a long time!"
Tian Zhenzhen said angrily, "This is too much trouble! They didn't even tell me beforehand and made you travel so far."
Su He listened to a couple of words of advice before she calmed down.
