There is room for rebirth at 70: a loyal dog and a rough man’s strong pet

This time she took out another thirty kilograms of pork, twenty kilograms of rice, and twenty kilograms of white flour.

The prices we just sold are still [-] cents per catty for pork, [-] cents per catty for white flour, and [-] cents per catty for rice.

It can be said that this is a provincial capital, and the food consumption is much larger than that of the county town. In such a short time, everything they brought on the second trip was sold out.

After loading the money, the two of them discussed it and decided to take a look around, just in case they could come across something good.

They were strolling around without being in a hurry. They would stop and look at every seller they passed by to see that they had no shortage of food and meat. They also wanted to observe and compare what they were selling to see if there was a big price difference between what they were selling and what others were selling. .

When he walked next to a squatting old woman, Shi Lingxi's eyes were attracted by what she was holding in her hand.

I saw that she was holding an old box, which was covered with a layer of red velvet. On top of it was a jade pendant, a jade hairpin, and a shabby-looking bell.

The jade pendant is green in color, the jade quality is warm and moist, and it looks very wet. The jade hairpin should also be from the same jade species. In the old box, they are all glowing with jade light, and the red background fabric makes it look very special. Pretty.

But what caught Shi Lingxi's attention was the very simple-looking bell.

Not only does it have a complicated shape, but it also carries an air of simplicity and vicissitudes of life. When you get closer, you can feel a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy inside.

After his eyes narrowed, Shi Lingxi picked up the bell and looked at it carefully.

After getting it, a strange feeling arose spontaneously, giving her an urge to put the bell into the space immediately.

She was slightly startled, how could she feel like this?Is this a baby?

When he was about to observe carefully, he thought that this was not a place to stay for a long time, so he looked up at the old man in front of him and said that he wanted to buy the bell back to play with his children, and asked her about the price of these things.

The old woman hesitated for a moment and said tentatively: "The jade pendant is 20 yuan, this hairpin is [-] yuan, and the bell...two yuan."

After saying that, he observed Shi Lingxi's expression with two eyes uneasily.

She was afraid that the price she wanted was too high and would scare her daughter-in-law away. If she couldn't get money to buy medicine today, her grandson would really die of illness.

Seeing the old man's uneasiness, Shi Lingxi thought for a moment and realized that the value of this bell alone was already more than the price the old man asked for. After all, in this era of depleted spiritual energy, things that are useful to monks are really hard to come by. Asked for.

In this case, even if the value of the two jade articles is not high, it is still acceptable.

She reached out to pick up the jade pendant and looked at it casually. She didn't know much about jade, and it just looked beautiful, so she put it back again.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the old woman put everything down, thinking it was because it was too expensive. She thought of the little grandson lying on the bed, who was the only child of their family. If she just left like this, how could she be worthy of being far away? Husband and son on Xijiang farm.

Seeing the anxiety flashing across the old man's face, Shi Lingxi blinked in confusion, and after thinking about it, he understood what was going on.

Yes, after all, everyone is short of food now. When everyone is not full, these antiques cannot support the food.

And if you are discovered, you will most likely be taken away and locked up in a small dark room, and your belongings will be confiscated.

Under such circumstances, naturally no one will buy these items that pose safety risks.

However, these are not problems for her. She has no shortage of food, has space, and does not have to worry about being discovered and reported. Therefore, it is perfect for her to keep these antiques.

The old woman didn't know what she was thinking, and she was afraid that she wouldn't buy it, so she hurriedly said: "Girl, I can make it cheaper. This jade is really good. These items, including the box, are from my ancestors." Uploaded.

I originally wanted to leave it as a thought, but now my child is sick and I need money to treat my child. Just buy it. You will definitely not lose money. "

The old man spoke eagerly and reluctantly, and the hesitation and helplessness in his eyes made Shi Lingxi soften his heart all of a sudden.

She didn't say no, she just weighed the expense of spending such a large amount of money at once, but she didn't expect that the old lady misunderstood.

But when I heard the old man say that someone in the family was sick, I suddenly understood the old man's urgency.

After hearing about the situation at the old man's home, Shi Lingxi did not lower the price. He smiled at the old man and said warmly: "Auntie, don't worry. Since the child at home is sick, I will no longer negotiate with you. According to the price you mentioned."

After saying that, he directly took out the money he had just spent selling grain and meat, counted out three ten-yuan bills, took two more one-yuan bills, put them together, and handed them into the old man's hands.

He closed the box, handed it to Shi Lingxi, and then counted with shaking hands. After confirming that it was correct, the transaction was completed.

Shi Lingxi took the box and pretended to put it in the backpack, but actually quickly put it into the space. This kind of treasure cannot be left outside. Where will she cry if it is lost?

After finishing the money, the anxious old man didn't care to say anything else. He turned around and hurried out of the alley. She had to go home quickly to see her grandson and then take him to the hospital.

Shi Lingxi did not turn around anymore. She had gained a lot and planned to go to the scrap station to see if she had gained anything.

Li Jiancheng, who has completely transformed into a loyal dog husband, naturally has no objections. Now, as long as it is a decision made by his wife, he will support it with both hands and feet.

After asking around all the way, they went to the scrap station nearest to them. There was also a 60-year-old man guarding the door. At the moment, he was sitting on a small horse singing an opera. Watching the old man playing time with great interest, they stood Waiting aside.

The old man didn't seem to see them. He didn't turn around to ask them what happened until he finished singing a section.

After stepping forward and saying hello politely, Shi Lingxi told them the purpose of coming here.

When they heard that they wanted to find something that could be reused in the scrap heap, the old man simply agreed and asked them to go find it and pay them by the pound.

With excitement, Shi Lingxi and Li Jiancheng dived into the scrap pile and rummaged through it.

The old man thought for a while, walked behind them and said to himself: "This garbage must be cleared out once a year. It's a pity for my old arms and legs. I have to help clean it up. The garbage in the house is several years old." It’s not cleaned anymore, I’m too old to do it anymore.”

Hearing the old man's meaningful words, Shi Lingxi's eyes lit up. Looking at the old man's meaningful eyes, Shi Lingxi bowed gratefully and said sincerely: "Thank you, uncle."

Seeing this unusual-looking girl, the old man understood what he meant. He turned around and left with his hands behind his back, leaving them to rummage around. Whether they could find something useful depends on their own luck.

Neither of them said it clearly, but they both understood what the other meant.
