Chapter 224 Heaven is so unfair

Master Shang's agate is a rare piece of white agate. White agate is pure and transparent, and is most suitable for making jewelry.

But this piece of white agate was covered with black dots, which looked like sesame seeds scattered on a white jade plate. Such a good piece of jade agate was ruined.

"It's quite unique." Mo Shougui's comment was quite pertinent, if it weren't for the fact that the corners of his mouth were upturned a little too high.

Master Shang rolled his eyes at his senior brother, took his agate and looked at it in the light: "It would be nice to put it in the fish tank."

Master Shang pretends to be open-minded, but his good student Tan Bailu is sabotaging him behind his back.

Tan Bailu pushed the corners of his eyes with the index fingers of both hands, motioning everyone to look.

Yu Hongdou covered her mouth and laughed secretly, and when Master Shang turned around to look at her, she pushed her brother forward.

Yu Song was helpless. He patted his sister back and then took a step forward. He smiled apologetically at Mo Shougui and handed his agate stone to the old master.

He knew what his sister meant.

The two brothers were opening stones one after the other. The younger one was terrible while the older one opened well. The teacher must have been very angry.

These brothers complement each other, but they are extremely childish when they are together.

Mo Shougui glanced at his junior fellow apprentice and snorted.

Yu Song's stone is very good. After a little grinding of the stone surface, the warm yellow color is revealed.

Just as Yu Song was about to reach out to take the agate from the master, his sister snatched it away first.

"It's so beautiful!" Yu Hongdou rubbed it a few times and raised the stone high.

The bottom of the yellow agate is lined with light orange lines, which looks like a coastline dyed orange by the light of the setting sun in the evening.

"Hey, brother, I'll weave a necklace for you later and give it to your future sister-in-law, okay?" After reading it, Yu Hongdou returned the agate to her brother with a smile.

On the way back, she heard that her mother was preparing to show her brother the bride.

Although Yu Song originally planned to arrange a marriage before going to Beijing for the imperial examination, Yu Sanlang and Xu were not so determined.

It would be great if there was a suitable family, but if not, it would be possible to marry one in the capital.

It is true that the Yu family has a poor foundation, but the Yu family is still much richer than some small officials' families in the capital.

The reason why Xu agreed with Yu Song's idea this time and started to take practical action was mainly because of Tian Manman.

Tian Manman mentioned the younger sister of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xu family, and Xu felt a sense of crisis.

She tactfully rejected Tian Manman, saying that she had already set her eyes on the girl, but the girl's family was not convenient to propose marriage at the moment, so it was delayed until now.

In the past few years, Xu had come into contact with some wives of officials and wealthy businessmen in Wu'an County, and had also learned some tricks of the trade.

He told Tian Manman implicitly that Yu Song had been chosen by a nobleman in the capital.

Tian Manman felt a little regretful, as she guessed it was the Tan family almost immediately.

I thought that my third uncle's family was trying to cling to the Tan family, and wanted to use Yu Song's marriage to tie them closer to the Tan family.

She advised twice, and just asked Xu to have a good talk with Yu Sanlang.

As the saying goes, a county magistrate is not as good as a current manager. It would be great if Yu Song could get help from someone in the capital, but it is too far away and they cannot get any help.

If she were to marry into the Xu family, no one in the state or county would dare to offend her restaurant.

Moreover, the Zou family still has influence in Jining, so it would not be a bad idea to open up a trade route through the eldest lady of the Xu family.

Unfortunately, Xu was so determined that Tian Manman did not dare to act too aggressively and had to give up.

After Tian Manman left, Xu told Yu Sanlang what Tian Manman meant, and also included her speculation about the Zou family.

Yu Sanlang didn't expect that his sister-in-law was still so thoughtful. He ignored her and became somewhat interested in the Zou family.

Anyway, the Cao family had already gone to Jining, so Yu Sanlang passed the message over and asked them to follow the Zou family's clues to investigate.

Although Xu listened to her husband, she also became concerned about her son's marriage.

Once she was bitten by a snake, she suddenly became afraid that her son would be unfamiliar with the capital and be deceived by the tricks of the concubines in the harem, and then marry someone who was hypocritical like the sixth daughter of the Xu family.

Yu Hongdou was brought back to her senses by the sound of praise. It turned out that the agate stone of her teacher Mo had opened.

The red and gold agate in Mo Shougui's hand was not the two pieces of red agate that Yu Hongdou got when she signed in, but a piece that she found with her own ability.

The main reason for her change of mind was that she was inspired by the bet she made with Tan Langxiu and Tan Yanlin on the road.

Teacher Mo Shougui is just like his name, he abides by the rules and his life is like a stagnant pool. Only mechanical mathematics can inspire him a little.

This situation did not change slightly until he came to Anbei Village and lived with Yu Hongdou, and he came back to life.

Life needs a lot of surprises and fun, so Yu Hongdou changed her mind and gave the agate stone she picked up to the teacher.

But she didn't expect that with her good eyesight, the teacher would immediately predict her luck.

"Teacher, you are so lucky! Hehe, of course, it's also because I have good eyesight." Yu Hongdou put her hands on her hips proudly.

Mo Shougui glanced at his junior proudly, touched his chin, and praised his student: "That's right, Hongdou has good eyesight, and my luck has improved with you."

He didn't realize that his smug expression was almost identical to his disciple's.

Master Shang rolled his eyes at his senior brother, then turned around and smiled.

At last this stubborn old man has regained some vitality, and I have lived up to my master's last wish.

Tan Langxu dug out a piece of gray agate with a slightly bluish tint. Its texture was three grades higher than that of Tan Bailu's. Tan Bailu was so angry that he screamed and tried to grab it.

As a result, he was held down by Tan Langxuan, and he struggled wildly, shaking his limbs like a turtle, which made everyone present laugh.

"You go first or me?" Tan Yanlin didn't want to look at his two mischievous brothers and invited Yu Hongdou.

"You go first, I have to be the last." Yu Hongdou regretted cheating a little, as if it was less fun.

"Okay, remember the bet." Tan Yanlin nodded and handed over his agate stone.

Tan Yanlin's agate was a bit similar to the red agate raw stone in Yu Hongdou's hand. She was afraid that this boy would be lucky and open it directly on her face.

What you worry about will come true. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a piece of golden-red wax agate that looks like a flame gradually emerges from the hands of the master craftsman, attracting everyone's attention.

"Fire agate? Did you really pick this up on the roadside?" Tan Bailu snatched the agate that had not been completely polished by the master in disbelief, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Young Master Eleven has always had good luck." Master Shang touched his chin and glanced at Tan Yanlin, then at Yu Hongdou.

I sighed silently in my heart, saying that the world is so unfair.

Why were these two children given good looks, smart brains, and such great blessings and protection?

How could this make him, a man who relied on hard work to achieve success, feel?
