Facing more than a dozen large boxes, Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help hesitating again, it's not good to have too many treasures, I don't know where to start!
She rubbed her hands and looked at this side, then at that side, not knowing which one to uncover first.
Zhou Shizhi held back his laughter, took her by the arm and said with a smile, "Look at this!" He led her to a box, opened it carefully, and saw countless small wooden boxes inside.
Zhou Shizhi casually picked up a one that was more than a foot long, and gently opened it, and suddenly it was shimmering with pearls. Inside it was a wreath made of various pearls and gemstones.
He picked up a bunch at random, and saw that the whole pattern was made up of the patterns of five blessings holding longevity. Pearls and red sapphires, emeralds, beeswax, amber, etc., with two drop-shaped emerald presser feet tied at the end, the shape is unique and lifelike.
There is also the pattern of dot emerald twining branches, which is bright and colorful, and the stamens are red gemstones of various layers, and the red and blue complement each other in an interesting way; On the golden silk thread, it sometimes appears and sometimes reveals, and the flowers are separated by an inch-long golden chain, with yellow and white contrasting each other, and the pearls are bright.
Looking at these things, Zhou Shizhi thought of the glamorous dresses of his mother, aunt, and sisters in the palace in the past, how pampered and superior they were in those days, but now the execution ground has already been splashed with blood, and heaven and man are separated.
He is still struggling and ups and downs in this world, while their beauties have already turned into mud. Zhou Shizhi couldn't help feeling bitter.
"It's so beautiful!" Lu Xiaoshu's eyes were dazzled, and he couldn't help saying: "Such a thing is worth at least ten thousand taels of silver! I'm afraid there are many more valuable things in this big box. Next, you are well-developed! Jewelry is the most convenient to dispose of, at worst, it can be dismantled and reworked, and no one is afraid that anyone will recognize it!"
"You're right," Zhou Shiyi put away the bitterness in his heart with a smile, and said with a smile, "Anyone you like? This is for you!" He handed the plum blossom necklace to her, and said, "These beads Although they are not big, what is rare is that they are about the same size and are all of the highest quality, and the workmanship of the necklaces made of them is also top-notch, and the gold wire used is no less than three taels, this string can be worth at least thirty thousand silver."
"So much!" Lu Xiaoshu stuck out his tongue, shook his head and laughed, "You should save the money, I don't want this! This thing looks good, but it's too eye-catching, even if I take it, I have no place to show it off! If I go out with my ordinary clothes tied on, wouldn’t it make people laugh! It’s too shameful! If you can only suffer in vain, you might as well ask you to sell it for money!”
Zhou Shizhi couldn't help laughing "puchi" and had to put it away again.
The two stayed in the cave for nearly two hours, Lu Xiaoshu praised him in his mouth, but in the end he didn't pick any of them, Zhou Shizhi understood that she was thinking of herself, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, it was me who was right. The woman that someone Zhou likes is not greedy for money, but also knows how to help me in times of trouble.
Afterwards, the two roughly cleared out three or four boxes. Zhou Shizhi put all the objects that were bestowed on the eyes in one place, and roughly gathered the things that were convenient for sale. Seeing the thin sweat on Lu Xiaoshu's forehead, he smiled and said : "Let's go back! These things have to be sold in batches if you want to sell them. These three boxes are enough to take a long time! I will clean them up after a while."
Lu Xiaoshu also nodded in agreement when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "Yes, after all, these belong to your family. It would be best if you don't have to sell them if you have enough money!"
Her eyes couldn't help sweeping over a set of eight glass cups, which were in the shape of lotus leaves. The emerald colored glass was as thin as a cicada's wing, crystal clear, and the light shone from all directions and reflected from different angles. The greenery is full of people, and it makes people feel unable to move their eyes away at a glance.
"Such a rare treasure, if it wasn't for love, no one would be willing to sell it!" Lu Xiaoshu said secretly in his heart.
When the two left the cave, Lu Xiaoshu's mind still couldn't return to reality, she only felt that those rare treasures were dangling back and forth in her mind, which made her dizzy. The lingering mountain wind blew for several rounds before she felt that she had gradually returned to normal.
Lu Xiaoshu breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped his sweat secretly, and thought that looking at the treasure is not only a pleasure, but also a test, especially when the owner of the treasure generously said that you can choose it, the seesaw in his heart The battle is just too cruel...
She couldn't help but hated herself for being useless. She was obviously salivating, so why did she insist on duplicity
"Are you tired? Let's go back!" Zhou Shizhi saw her entanglement early, and couldn't help laughing secretly. She seems to be greedy for money, but in fact she always has her own bottom line in doing things. Faced with such treasures, which can be taken at will, there may not be a few people in this world who can have her concentration.
"Well, let's go back!" Lu Xiaoshu smiled at him and said, "I don't know if our horse has run far!"
She swore that she would never come to this place again, seeing, touching, and not being able to get it, this kind of feeling is really uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, the horses have been trained and won't run wild!" Zhou Shizhi smiled and said softly, "The road down the mountain is not easy, so be careful."
In fact, he really wants to say that I will support you, but he dare not say so.
"I'm not that useless!" Lu Xiaoshu talked back to him with an unconvinced smile as usual. Zhou Shiyi just smiled.
The two went down the mountain and walked for a while, only to see the vast snowfield was completely white, and the previous footprints had already been completely covered. Lu Xiaoshu put his hand on his forehead, looked around with half-closed eyes, and said, "Where's the horse? There's not even a shadow!"
Zhou Shizhi didn't care, and said with a smile: "Not far from here, there is a hot spring to the north, and the area next to the hot spring is full of vegetation, they must be there, let's go there too!"
"There are also hot springs! There are so many treasures in your villa!" Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
Zhou Shizhi smiled and said: "If you like it, I can build a big hot spring pool when I give it to you in the future. Back then, our family also had a hot spring pool in the other village. In the past, every late autumn and winter, my father would take us The whole family is going to stay for a few days."
Lu Xiaoshu heard him bring up the past again, but his tone was so flat that he couldn't hear any emotional fluctuations, and he didn't know how to respond to his words, so he couldn't help but looked up at him, and smiled in agreement.
But Zhou Shiyi's eyes were staring at her faintly, the black stone-like eyes were as deep as a bottomless pool, and there were faint ripples in the waves in the pool, which made her a little dizzy, and she forgot for a while. Responding, she just looked at him in a daze.
"Xiao Shu!" Zhou Shizhi's heart felt hot, and he couldn't help but stepped forward to hold her hands tightly, staring at her burningly and said: "I have no home, no relatives, Xiao Shu, don't leave me, stay with me." how am I?"
Lu Xiaoshu felt even more dizzy, and his mind was completely messed up.
"Xiaoshu..." Zhou Shizhi looked at the girl in front of him who was more delicate than a flower, her cheeks were dyed with rouge, her eyes were like crystals, her bright red diamond-shaped mouth was slightly opened, her pretty face was a bit dazed and confused, and her thick and long eyelashes flickered from time to time. In a blink of an eye, she is pitiful and cute, and has a different style than her usual cheerfulness.
At this moment, she was so close to him, right in front of him, so pretty and alive, like a beautifully blooming, slim red plum.
He couldn't help but raised his hand to gently stroke her face, and said softly: "Xiao Shu, I—"
"You, what are you doing!" Lu Xiaoshu finally came back to his senses as the cool fingertips and the warm palm lightly stroked his icy face like feathers. She was startled and hurriedly backed away, still staring at him in a daze.
Oolong! Lu Xiaoshu suddenly panicked, what does this person mean? Does it mean you like yourself
Subconsciously recalling the past and all the things along the way, Lu Xiaoshu's mind suddenly became chaotic again, as if she was always the one who realized it later...
"I, I want you to do me a favor, can you?" Zhou Shiyi couldn't help himself for a while, originally he wanted to confess his love to her, but seeing her panicked reaction, he immediately panicked, Afraid, afraid to frighten her and push her away from him all at once.
"Ah?" Lu Xiaoshu's already confused mind became even more confused, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise: What did he say? He said he wanted to ask her for a favor
Confirming that she heard correctly, she was subconsciously disappointed while she breathed a sigh of relief. As for what she was disappointed with, she herself didn't know.
"I would like to ask you to do me a favor." Zhou Shizhi had completely calmed down, smiled apologetically at her, and said softly, "Maybe, it will make you a little embarrassed..."
Lu Xiaoshu smiled "hehe" and quickly shook his head, "I won't be embarrassed. Since I decided to stay and help you, no matter what you say, I will of course cooperate with you! So you don't have to be polite, really!"
Zhou Shizhi smiled and said, "That's what you said."
"Well, of course I said it!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded.
Zhou Shizhi said seriously: "I want you to pretend to be lovers with me, and you agree?"
"What!" Lu Xiaoshu was startled, and blurted out, "Why?"
Zhou Shizhi still said seriously: "As long as you cooperate with me, you will find out soon. I believe this is the best way to disturb this lake."
Seeing that Lu Xiaoshu was still in a state of ignorance, he said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, we've spent a lot of time together, don't you trust me?"
When Lu Xiaoshu saw that he was speaking in a serious manner, he couldn't understand what kind of gourd he was selling, and couldn't help but said, "But you still didn't tell me why!"
Zhou Shizhi raised his eyebrows, and said: "Needless to say, I believe you will understand soon. Xiaoshu, I really can't find a better person to do this, but if you are in trouble—"
