Chapter 127 Coffin Girl's Meeting Gift
Forget it! Gold is rarely used these days, even silver ingots are rarely used, so let's put it away for now!
Jiang Youzhen thought about it. If she put the gems back into the box, wouldn't she feel bad if they were scratched? Then she picked up the scraps of cloth and packed the treasures into different categories and put them into the space.
When I have free time, I will customize a batch of jewelry boxes to hold these little treasures.
However, these things are placed so messily, it feels like someone swept the valuable things in in a panic, which is rather rough.
Maybe it was because he stole the treasure that Brother Skeleton was being hunted? Now I got the advantage, hehe!
"Anyway, Brother Skeleton, thank you! When I go to the temple to burn incense, I will definitely burn one for you. Look at you, you are so polite. I really can't repay you!"
Thinking that these were all his, Jiang Youzhen suddenly felt relieved and was so excited that he couldn't sleep.
"Come and open the blind box again and select the soldiers and generals! Okay, it's you!"
Jiang Youzhen then picked up the agate stone he had found in the dark river. Without a strong flashlight, he took an oil lamp and looked at it closely. He was crying and couldn't see anything clearly.
"Forget it, there are five pieces in total. I'll cut them together with the mutton-fat jade ball when the time comes."
They were all put back into the space, and finally there was the gift from the coffin girl.
There were two things in total. When I took them out, I found that they were covered with moss and dirt.
"Since it's a treasure, why should I be disgusted?" Jiang Youzhen prepared himself mentally and immediately picked up a wet cloth to wipe it.
I wiped the round bracelet first, and when I wiped halfway, I found it was a jade bracelet, but it was red in color.
"Could it be red jadeite? That must be valuable." Jiang Youzhen finished wiping it excitedly. When he saw what it was, he was shocked, and then overjoyed. He placed the jade bracelet on a piece of cloth.
It was a blood jade bracelet! In the candlelight, one could see traces of blood-red veins, which looked strangely beautiful.
There is a rumor in the jade world that blood jade bracelets are made from the blood of deceased people, but this is actually a mysterious statement. It is just a rare variety.
However, this kind of jade cannot be formed without hundreds or thousands of years. It is precious because of its rarity.
It seems that the woman in the coffin must be rich or noble to have such a precious burial object. However, because of the mysterious color, some people are very superstitious and will ask a master to decipher it after buying it.
Most of this jade bracelet is red, and even though it has not seen the sun for many years, the color is still bright. The remaining white part is also very shiny and translucent, similar to mutton-fat jade.
"The condition is so good. If this bracelet didn't belong to Coffin Girl, I would really like to keep it for myself." Jiang Youzhen put it down regretfully and started to clean another one.
After cleaning, Jiang Youzhen found another carved jade boat. The small pendant could actually carve out a boat, and even the cabins on the boat could be clearly seen.
This jade pendant is also made of white jade. It looks a little dull now because it has not been worn for a long time. Jade jewelry should be worn frequently to appear shiny and glossy.
These two items are undoubtedly good things. Jiang Youzhen thought about it and decided that the Baoyu Silver Shop in the county town was not big enough and might not be able to cut stones. Why not go to the provincial capital?
It just so happened that she hadn't been to the capital to sign in yet, so maybe there would be a lot of rewards. But when she thought about how Qinghe Village was almost a day's journey from the capital by carriage, Jiang Youzhen felt that Jiang Fugui and his wife would not agree to her going alone.
Forget it! After the Chinese New Year, she will try to convince Jiang Fugui and the others!
The twenty-meter-long ebony in the space was not easy to take out, so Jiang Youzhen did not look at it again. She felt sleepy and fell asleep on the bed.
On the first day of the first lunar month, the younger generations in every household go out to pay New Year’s greetings.
In previous years, the younger generation of the family would go to the upper room to pay New Year's greetings to the old man and the old lady. Of course, there was no New Year's money, not even a penny. Giving each person a piece of candy to sweeten their mouths was considered a favor.
Early in the morning, Jiang Youzhen was poached by Shen's.
"Although your grandparents did something wrong, they are still your elders after all, so you still have to go and pay New Year's greetings. Otherwise, if word gets out, people will stab you in the back."
Jiang Youzhen yawned, but did not object. He said something auspicious to Shen, "Mom, I wish you a happy birthday every year!"
Shen pursed her lips and smiled, "Hey! You are so sweet, and I wish my son a long life!"
"Hurry up, the children in the village are all coming, we have to go before them to pay New Year's greetings, it's not good to fall behind."
Jiang Youzhen put on his new clothes and went out of the house. Just as he was about to wash up, he saw the whole family dressed very neatly and sitting at the table eating big steamed buns and pickles.
Especially the three sisters, they are dressed very beautifully today. They have eaten well recently, and their blood and qi are full. Their beautiful faces have been revealed, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Jiang Youzhen hurriedly greeted them one by one, and then praised the three sisters again and again. At this time, the Gao family came over, and after greeting them one by one, they started to do their own things.
After breakfast, they had to go to the upper room. Although Jiang Youzhen and the others were reluctant, they still followed Jiang Fugui.
Today, the old man and old lady also put on new coats, but they were made of coarse cloth. There were many people in the room, even my uncle came back from town, and stood in front of the kang with my aunt and her husband, saying auspicious words, which made them smile.
But as soon as Jiang Youzhen and the others came in, the old man and the old lady frowned and turned their faces away.
Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt also stood in front of the kang and looked at them. When Fourth Uncle saw Jiang Youzhen, his face darkened first, and then he snorted coldly.
Jiang Youzhen followed Jiang Fugui and the others to pay their respects, and just as he was about to stand up, he heard the voice of his fourth aunt Luo. The voice was harsh, and he was no longer in a good mood on the first day of the new year.
"Second brother, your family has become rich this year and has hired servants. Your parents work so hard and still have to eat coarse food, but you, as a son, don't feel sorry for them. Also, look at what your family wears, all of them are brand new jackets made of fine cotton cloth. Look at what your parents wear?"
"Yes! Second brother, you are living a good life, but our parents are still suffering. How can you bear to see this?" Fourth uncle also sighed and shook his head.
"Second brother, as the eldest brother, I have to say something about you! Look, you can't just ignore your parents just because the family has been divided, right? Even if the family has been divided, are we still a family? Are your parents still your real parents? I am so disappointed in you!"
The uncle sighed heavily and pointed at Jiang Fugui with a look of great sorrow on his face.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fugui's face turned red and he lowered his head. He felt very guilty and was speechless.
Jiang Youzhen snorted coldly. Are you here to cause trouble during the New Year?
"Uncle, the Gao family was brought here in exchange for their lives, and my family doesn't want them. Three more people will need more food, so if you want them, then they are yours, and you will be responsible for their food and drink from now on. As for new clothes, didn't I buy cloth for grandpa and grandma before? Why didn't they make clothes? As for food, my father sent a lot of food yesterday!"
