Chapter 40: Stone Selection
After a day of ups and downs, Xiao Yuntong and his father came to a raw stone quarry.
There are stones of different sizes and shapes in the field. Most of the people who walked and watched in the stone field were elderly middle-aged people, and there were also many young handsome men who learned skills from their elders.
Xiao Yuntong followed her father and looked at them. Some stones were not only ugly, but also rough. When she touched the stones with her hand, she felt a thorn.
"Father, this stone is ugly and cuts your hands." Xiao Jingxian knew that a stone that resembled tree bark, although it felt thorny, was highly gambling.
"The boss makes an offer."
At this time, the boss came over and covered a piece of floral cloth in his hand. Seeing him coming, Xiao Jingxian hurriedly put his hand under the floral cloth. After much deliberation, the price was finally set.
"Dad, this stone is so ugly..."
"Daughter, don't look so ugly on the outside, maybe it's priceless inside if you saw it off."
"Daddy, I also want to choose one as my birthday present." Under Daddy's guidance, Xiao Yuntong also chose a brown and rough stone for himself.
The midday sun sets and the sun casts dappled shadows through the gaps in the leaves. Stepping on the copper coin-sized print, Liu Yuechan walked back and forth, an embroidered handkerchief twisting constantly at her fingertips.
"Master is back." Hearing the thick footsteps, Liu Yuechang's heart also became heavy.
Ren Cailing looked at Liu Yuechan, who was crying with red eyes next to her, and gently reminded: "Sister, you have to bear with it, the master has asthma, and you must not make the master too excited."
"Hmm." Liu Yuechan nodded sullenly.
"Master, are you back?" Seeing her husband, Ren Cailing hurried up to meet her.
"Well, I'm back." The few stones he brought back during this trip made him very satisfied.
Ren Cailing held her husband and asked about the situation of the trip with concern. Seeing his mother, Xiao Yuntong also enthusiastically poured out what he saw and heard on the road like beans.
"Master!" As soon as she returned to the main hall, Liu Yuechan burst into tears.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Jingxian glanced at her and said warmly.
Today's Liu Yuechan neither wears rouge gouache nor lowers her lips, her face is pale and dark yellow. "Master, save me, save Jin Biao." She fell to her knees.
Speaking of his young son, Xiao Jingxian gritted his teeth in anger: "He fought with someone again?"
Liu Yuechan stared at her husband's face in a panic, for fear that if he was unhappy, she would be crushed to pieces. "No, it's a shop, all the shops are gone!"
"What?!" The news undoubtedly struck him as a thunderbolt, making his heart pierce.
It turned out that, in order to prove that I was more capable than my eldest brother, I used the eight rooms as collateral to buy shares of a popular Shanghai financing fund called Xinhuile. Who knew that the stock plummeted and the person in charge also fled. demon. Now, Fang Qi is still in the hands of others. He wanted to make a lot of money, but now he has nothing.
"Father, I was wrong!" Suddenly, the unkempt Tang Jinbiao knelt down in front of him. It was the first time that my son had admitted his mistake to himself when he was so old. Xiao Jingxian felt a warmth in his heart. The prodigal son does not exchange for money. If money can buy the lessons of life, and you can have more chance of winning in the future, is it not a good thing. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, he suddenly shrank back. Does Xiao Jinbiao, who is usually arrogant and bohemian, really realize his mistake?
"Tell me! How did you get the house deed?!" Xiao Jingxian shouted loudly.
"Yes, yes." Xiao Jinbiao looked at his mother with thirsty eyes, and couldn't say the ugly one for a long time.
Liu Yuechan buried her head in her chest and whispered back, "Master, it's me, I gave it to him!"
"You, you!" Xiao Sanxian covered his chest, his anger stuck in his throat like a hard stone. In this way, Xiao Yuntong asked Daddy to help him to the room, trying to reduce his irritation as much as possible.
