Chapter 47: Old Mine Glass Jade



Qin Zhiheng had seen good things before and knew that this set of jewelry was very rare and very valuable.

"Uncle, this thing is good. How much do you want to sell it for?"

The old man looked at his grandson lying in the inner room.

He had been unable to find work recently, had no income, and his family was out of food. His grandson was so hungry that he had no strength and could only lie in bed.

The criminal said: "I, I am short of food. Just give me some more coarse grains."

"You don't have a job?"

The old man frowned, his face full of distress.

"After my son passed away, I gave the job to my daughter-in-law. But she thought life was hard. She secretly sold her job, took the money and remarried in Lin County. Now only my grandson and I are left."

"I have a town hukou, so usually the street office arranges temporary work for me, but it's not always available."

Qin Zhiheng thought for a moment and said, "One hundred kilograms of cornmeal and thirty kilograms of white flour, plus one hundred and fifty yuan."

The old man exclaimed in surprise: "This, this is too much."

He thought he could only get two bags of grain at most. One hundred and fifty yuan was a lot of money, and he might be able to buy a temporary job as a gatekeeper.

His and his grandson's future life was settled.

Qin Zhiheng looked at the child on the kang and said, "The extra money will be given to the child."

In fact, the things were of high value, so they didn’t give much. But in this era when food and money were more important, they did give a lot.

The old man felt that he was overjoyed. He said, "Wait a minute," and ran to the inner room. Soon he took out a snuff bottle.

"This is also passed down by the elders, but I don't know if it's worth the money. Just consider it as an addition."

Qin Zhiheng took it and found that it was a Hetian jade snuff bottle with a relief of two children playing on it.

It's very childlike and I think An An and Ning Ning will definitely like it.

After the two of them had made the plan, they waited until night when there were few people on the streets.

Qin Zhiheng carried the grain over and took the old items home.

It was already midnight when we got home, and An An and Ning Ning were already asleep.

Water had already been added to the big pot. Yu You put in the noodles, blanched some spinach, and poured the leftover braised pork from the day over it.

Qin Zhiheng took out the small red lacquer box from his arms, threw it to Yu You, and started eating noodles. He ate three bowls in total, sweating profusely, and felt very satisfied.

Yu You thought it was another small yellow croaker, so he cleaned the pot before coming back to check.

When he opened the small box, he couldn't help but scream. His palm-sized face was full of surprise.

Thanks to the concentrated consumption she experienced while traveling in her previous life, she also learned some skills in identifying jade.

Jade jewelry of this level is extremely rare. A similar necklace was once auctioned for over 100 million yuan in modern times.

And this is a complete set of necklaces, bracelets and rings.

This is such a great value!

"Are you sure this is for me?" The Qin family has been in high positions for many years and must know the value of this set of things.

"Don't you like old things?" Qin Zhiheng answered as a matter of course.

"But this is too valuable. No merit, no reward!"

Yu You sat on the kang. Although she liked the jewelry very much, she forced herself not to touch it.

Qin Zhiheng smiled and said, "You married me, gave birth to children, and took care of the family. How come you don't have any credit?"

"But it's still too expensive."

"Then let's add some more husband-wife duties." Qin Zhiheng said, without waiting for You's reaction, and hugged the person in his arms.

The clear lips with a hint of warmth pressed down.

Yu You was quite dissatisfied. Why was he always so passive?

Besides, Qin Zhiheng has a good family background, good looks, and a sense of responsibility. Now he has even shown his doting qualities. He is quite suitable for her taste, okay?

She didn't know what the future held, but at this moment, she would be a fool to push it out.

The clever tongue also learns to test and conquer the city little by little.

This stirred up a hornet's nest, and Qin Zhiheng's patience of the past few days was suddenly broken.

Yu You was inexperienced, and Qin Zhiheng's only awareness was vague, practically nonexistent. Neither of them was very skilled, and Qin Zhiheng was eager, so the noise was quite loud.

The kang was not spacious enough, and Ningning was made drowsy by the noise. She rolled over and landed next to the two people hugging each other.

The two who had not yet succeeded had to stop.

This is not suitable for children. Yu You's face was very hot, so he pulled the quilt over himself and covered himself tightly.

Qin Zhiheng's face was full of black lines, and he was thinking that he would have to think of a way to trick the children into sleeping in their grandparents' room in the future.

The unsatisfied man pulled the woman into the bed and hugged her tightly.

I slept all night unwillingly but helplessly.

The small box beside it was still open, and the dark night obscured the bright green light.

The next morning, after breakfast, Yu You took the box and went to find her mother. Her mother didn't like gold and silver very much, but she loved jade and jadeite.

"Oh my God. The color is pure and the texture is uniform. This is the best jade." Cao Xiu looked at it again and again. Not only is the raw material good, but the style is also beautiful.

Yu You said generously: "Mom, if you like this necklace, you can wear it."

"I went out wearing this necklace and was paraded through the streets. I decided to save it to my personal space so that my mother and I can enjoy it when we have time."

"Zhiheng is really good to you. He even collected such a good item for you. He really cares about you."

Yu You smiled and said, "Mom, I thought about it. Being single has its advantages, and it seems like getting married isn't bad either. I'll take this man as your daughter."

Cao Xiu smiled and tapped Yu You's forehead. As a mother, she felt at ease knowing that her daughter could settle down.

"Mom, why are you the only one in the room? Where are the others?"

"Your father and your brother have gone to the back to take care of their private plot. Your great-grandfather and great-grandmother are even more diligent than them. Ever since these vegetables started growing, they've been working in their private plot every day."
