sweet wife little confused

Chapter 173
The sun was shining brightly and the weather was hot. I heard the sound outside. The sound reached the bottom of my heart. It was so inspiring. There was an ice basin in an elegantly decorated flower hall. It was cool inside, and several women were talking softly. , It seems to be separated from the outside world into two worlds.

Ye Jingshu was sitting in the room drinking tea with a few little sisters, she didn't seem to be worried at all, the girls were smiling sweetly, suddenly footsteps were heard, a group of officers and soldiers broke in, Ye Jingshu was shocked, put down the teacup, and scolded Said: "Why do you break into private houses?"

"Ye Jingshu, right?" the leader of the officers and soldiers asked.

"I am, what's the matter?" Ye Jingshu asked pretending to be calm.

"Take it away!" As soon as the officer and soldier stretched out his hand, someone came to escort her.

"Why do you do this?" Ye Jingshu asked coldly.

No one can prove that she did what happened that day, so nothing should happen.

"Why? This is the certificate, Ye Jingshu, the fugitive slave!" The officer and soldier sneered, flashing the certificate in front of her eyes, and with a wave of his hand, someone pulled her up and dragged her out.

The way she was dragged out was really ugly, but after the initial panic, she regained her composure and said, "I can go by myself."

"Don't play tricks." The officers and soldiers on the side looked at her coldly.

But Ye Jingshu broke free from the hands of the officers and soldiers, straightened her waist, straightened her clothes, and then walked outside with her head held high, as if she was still that noble person.

The officers and soldiers guarded the surroundings, and when they saw that there was nothing wrong, they let her go. I heard that Ye Jingshu had a big background, so they didn't dare to offend her too much, but the Zhang family is also famous, and they still have Evidence, they can't not do it.

After finally escorting Ye Jingshu to Zhang's house, the officers and soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and entered the Zhang's house. After the maids informed, An Xiu'er came out from the inner house and greeted them all.

"Write a few more big brothers for their help, I am very grateful." An Xiu'er covered her veil, greeted several officers and soldiers with a modest demeanor.

"It should be, it should be." The leading officers and soldiers said again and again.

"We put this person here." He said again.

"Thank you very much. This fugitive slave is the concubine of the second master of the mansion. She has escaped. It will take us a lot of work to find her. I didn't expect the speed of the elder brothers to be so fast." An Xiuer said to the side Ban Xia winked, Ban Xia understood, and took out money from her purse to give to several officers and soldiers.

These officers and soldiers naturally refused, An Xiu'er said: "Please don't refuse, it's hot weather, a little money for some tea."

An Xiu'er was so courteous, these officers and soldiers also took the opportunity, and after returning the gift with their hands, they left.

"An Xiu'er, you are really capable." After the officers and soldiers left, Ye Jingshu found a chair and sat down, looking at An Xiu'er coldly. She never expected that An Xiu'er would use this trick.

"I can't, it's you who can. After doing something wrong, you dare to come to the door so carelessly. Who in this county can compare to you?" An Xiuer said to the two women behind her. After winking, the two women walked over and vigorously pulled away the chair Ye Jingshu was sitting on.

Ye Jingshu fell to the ground unexpectedly, and her haughty posture fell to the bottom of the mud in an instant. She raised her eyes to look at An Xiu'er resentfully, and said, "How dare you treat me like this?"

"Why don't I dare? I am the mistress of the Zhang family now, and you are just a runaway slave. Why should I not dare?" An Xiu'er smiled and said, "Anyone who dares to demean himself to harm others should There is a sense of being belittled."

As An Xiu'er spoke, she glanced at the two powerful women, and the two women walked over and pushed Ye Jingshu down to her knees.

Ye Jingshu naturally resisted to the extreme, who is she, the majestic Miss Ye family, An Xiu'er is just a country girl, why should she make her kneel down?Even she is nothing, and her dignity does not allow her to do so.

However, the mother-in-law behind her pressed her hard, making her unable to move, but none of her maids and guards came over.

"An Xiu'er, I hope you can continue to be so arrogant, otherwise, if you fall into my hands in the future, I will definitely make your life worse than death!" Ye Jingshu made a vow of resentment.

"Even if I don't fall into your hands, you have already made my life worse than death." An Xiu'er laughed at herself, walked over to adjust her position, and said, "Just kneel here, this one The direction of the courtyard is facing the cliff, I think you will regret it after kneeling for two hours."

As she spoke, she didn't wait for Ye Jingshu to speak again, she just ordered someone to watch her, and then left.

She doesn't have the time to waste time with her here, let alone talk to her and listen to her grievances. She has to use the limited time to do meaningful things.

After returning to her yard, she rested for a while, calmed down her mood, drank a bowl of anti-fetal medicine, and plunged into the study again.

She was looking at the ancient books of the Zhang family. She had to understand the various types and grades of various gemstones.

At present, besides jade, the popular gemstones in the market are jadeite and tourmaline. Because the empress dowager of the dynasty likes jadeite very much, so in recent years, jadeite has become extremely popular.

When it comes to jadeite, you have to talk about the country of Myanmar. Most of the jadeite is imported from this country. However, the way they buy and sell jadeite is not to let you choose the variety of jadeite, but to put some rough jadeite stones for you to buy. people buy.

The choice of rough jadeite depends on personal opinion. Some people buy rough jadeite at a lower price and get higher value jadeite after cutting it. Some people buy rough jadeite at a high price. There is nothing in it, and the bamboo basket fetches water in vain.

But this way of buying and selling jade with the nature of gambling has instead attracted a large number of people who come to pan for gold. Everyone believes that they can have this luck and can buy high-value things at a low price, but more People return without success, or even lose everything.

Affected by this trend, the jade in Tubo is now imitating Myanmar, and the rough stones are directly bought and sold.

However, the jade in Tubo is a half-gamble, a half-gamble is to confirm that there is jade in it, but it is half-covered, not letting you know what kind of jade is inside, and some veterans of the shopping malls are making trouble again. At the auction, some plausible rough stones will be put up in an auction. In this way, people's eyesight will be tested even more.

People with poor eyesight buy cheap jade at high prices, and those with good eyesight buy high-quality jade at low prices.

Due to the rise of this stone betting trend, there are now many stone masters in the gem market. Most of these masters have observed these rough stones all the year round. Determine whether there are rough stones in it.

Of course, these masters occasionally misjudged, but their chances of misjudging were much lower than ordinary people. Therefore, some big families engaged in jade business like to enshrine some Kanshi masters.

The main business of the Zhang family is to sell all kinds of high-end jewelry, and jade is indispensable in these jewelry. Therefore, within the family, some masters who survey rough stones are dedicated. These masters include surveying rough jadeite and jade. However, in recent years, these masters enshrined by the Zhang family have not found high-quality gemstones for the Zhang family in the rough stone market.

When Zhang Zhen'an's eyes were not broken, he was the best Kanshi master of the Zhang family, an ordinary stone, but he could see more details than ordinary people, so in those few years, every time he was in various In the rough stone market, the Zhang family is the leader.

At that time, it was also because of his talent that he was able to convince everyone.

However, since his eyes were injured, he could no longer survey the rough stones, and his status in the Zhang family would inevitably be affected. When he was driven away by the Wu family as a stumbling block, no one in the family came to say a few words of justice for him. No one came out to persuade him to look for him, because he couldn't bring them more benefits.

In the past few years, Zhang Zhenan has been recuperating in the countryside. His eyes seem to be healed, but his eyesight is not as good as before. He no longer has the talent and activity of the past. He can no longer survey rough stones. up.

The reason why Fang Xiyu and others wanted to leave was because the Zhang family didn't have precious gemstones, so they couldn't keep aspiring masters like them. Therefore, in fact, all conspiracies were no match for Yangmou, and strength was the most important thing.

Now the Zhang family seems to be in danger, but as long as the Zhang family can get more precious gems than other families, it will definitely attract more excellent craftsmen. As long as there are excellent craftsmen, why not worry about the works handed down from generation to generation?As long as there are works handed down from generation to generation, people will naturally rush to buy them.

At that time, there is no need to publicize it, and naturally it will be full of people.

Gems are the lifeblood of the Zhang family.

As the source, Kanshi masters are extremely important, but the few Kanshi masters enshrined by the Zhang family are not very high.

An Xiu'er reasoned all afternoon, and finally understood that if she wanted to revitalize the Zhang family, she had to start with Kanshi first.

But Kanshi?Who should I ask for a survey?Nowadays, there are good and bad stone masters in the rough stone market. How can she invite those stone masters who have already become famous?

An Xiu'er thought about it and wandered around in Zhang Zhen'an's study. Finally, she decided that she would become Kan Shi Shishi.

She came to identify the rough stone!

But how difficult is it to become a Kanshishishi?Talent and experience are indispensable, especially talent. Some people have spent their whole lives in the rough stone market, but their eyesight is still mediocre. Some people have only been there a few times before gaining experience, buying top-quality gemstones, and becoming famous in one fell swoop.

An Xiu'er doesn't care about being famous, she only cares about whether she can buy rough stones containing top-quality gemstones.

After all, she promised Fang Xiyu, she must impress him!

But An Xiu'er still doesn't know what the violet emerald is, so what she has to do now is to read more books.

Zhang's family has been in the jade business for many years, and there must be books handed down on this topic. It's just that An Xiu'er was not interested in these before, and she never knew about them at all, so what she needs to do now is to find out the books on this topic.

In addition to Zhang Zhenan's study, the Zhang family also has a large study, which is a small building with a huge collection of books, even ancient bamboo slips. An Xiuer rarely came here before. This time she made a special trip to look for books about Kanshi.

It's just that after coming to the study, An Xiu'er was a little disappointed. It wasn't that there were too few books in it, but that there were too many books in it. She couldn't find what she wanted at all. Even if she mobilized the servants to help her find it, it was still very difficult. effort.

Moreover, everyone in the Zhang family seems to seldom come to this study. Many books in it are covered with dust, and the servants who manage the study rarely come to clean it up.

It is true, almost everyone in the Zhang family has their own small study, and the chances of coming to this big study to read are less. An Xiuer suddenly remembered that she was reluctant to buy a book for An Ronghe, but, Now the Zhang family has so many books, which are gathering dust here.

She suddenly felt that these books were lying quietly on the bookshelf, slowly covered with dust, the paper gradually turned grayish yellow, and the handwriting gradually became dim. It can only be used, otherwise, it would be good to let An Ronghe come here to read books if he has nothing to do.

Finding a day with good weather, in the name of drying books, An Xiu'er asked the servants to move out all the books, dried them all, wiped off the dust on the books, and asked people to clean up the study room. At that time, it took a lot of time to rearrange the books into different categories and compile them into volumes, but it will be much more convenient to find books in the future.

More importantly, after posting the books this time, An Xiu'er easily found the books she wanted.

The Zhang family is indeed a century-old big family. There is a thick stack of books about these stones, and there are many books that teach you how to appreciate gems. An Xiuer is busy these days, just reading these Books take a lot of time.

But it doesn't matter, it just so happens that she has a big belly and can't do anything now, reading some books and learning some knowledge can just kill the time, it couldn't be better.
