I cut off Zhou Buwen's words, "Big head, why do you have to be the one who hit me with ulterior motives? The truth is, I hit him with ulterior motives!"
Zhou Buwen said sarcastically, "With Wu Julan, how could it be possible?"
"Why is it impossible? What is Wu Julan worse than you... and Jiang Yisheng?" At the last moment, I still looked at the past jiāoqíng, and I didn't want Zhou Buwen to be too embarrassed, so I added "Jiang Yisheng".
Jiang Yisheng knew that Zhou Buwen had touched my inverse scale, so he hurriedly reassured and said, "Brother Wu is better than us everywhere! Xiaoluo, Datou just cares about you, and he speaks a little sloppily."
Zhou Buwen sneered coldly: "Yeah! Wu Julan is better-looking than us. If he doesn't look better, how can he live by selling his face?"
I also said coldly, "I'm happy to buy it anyway! Can you handle it?"
Jiang Yisheng listened to us and became more and more unbearable. He stood between me and Zhou Buwen, his face pulled down, "You all shut up for me!"
Zhou Buwen gave me a deep look, with a sullen face, turned around and walked into the living room.
Jiang Yisheng said to me: "Although Datou's words are ugly, you should know that he also cares about you."
"Can you scold the person I like if you care about me?"
Jiang Yisheng was silent.
I asked, "Did Zhou Buwen ask you about Wu Julan?"
Jiang Yisheng said: "I asked me, but it's up to you whether to say it or not. I won't help you make a decision. I just told him that Brother Wu is your hired helper and is very good at cooking."
"What whispers are you hiding there?" Wu Liangliang asked with a smile while standing at the door of the living room, holding a glass of red wine.
I said to Jiang Yisheng, "Go in! Don't screw up your date because of me." I walked over with a smile and said to Wu Liangliang, "We're whispering to you."
"What?" Wu Liangliang looked very interested.
My eyes swept across the shiny jewelry on her neck, and I said casually, "Your jewelry is very beautiful. I asked Jiang Yisheng whether you are wearing diamonds or crystals."
Wu Liangliang smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
I said honestly, "It's like a diamond, but you're wearing it so much that it feels like it should be fake."
"It's all real, I never wear a fake one."
I was secretly surprised by Wu Liangliang's wealth, and glanced at Jiang Yisheng, Jiang Yisheng smiled indifferently.
Wu Liangliang sat on the sofa gracefully, stroking the diamond necklace, posing as a model in a fashion magazine, and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"
I sat across from her and said with sincerity, "It's beautiful!"
Wu Liangliang looked behind me and said, "Brother Wu, did you hear that? I have to prepare jewelry for my girlfriend, and dress her up beautifully!"
I turned around and saw Wu Julan walking over and standing behind me. I hurriedly said: "Everyone is here, let's play cards!" I didn't want to continue this money-related topic.
But Wu Liangliang still said: "Xiaoluo has a good face, no matter if Brother Wu gives earrings or necklaces, they will look good on them."
I couldn't pretend that I couldn't hear it, and I was reluctant to let Wu Julan face such a thing, so I could only block it myself, smiled and said, "I don't like diamonds, the color is too clean, my mother gave me a diamond necklace, I've never worn one."
Jiang Yisheng held two decks of playing cards and said loudly, "Playing cards! Playing cards!" He wanted to divert everyone's attention from the topic of jewelry.
Zhou Buyan made him fail.
"You can choose colored diamonds." Zhou Buyan mentioned the necklace he was wearing and showed everyone the pear-shaped pendant, "I am a diamond. If Sister Shen doesn't like hues, blue diamonds and emeralds are good choices. There are also pink diamonds, which are liked by many girls and are most suitable for marriage proposals."
Zhou Buyan stared at Wu Julan, with a sweet smile, and said Nuo Nuo: "Wu Julan, what kind of engagement ring are you planning to give Sister Shen? I know a lot of jewelers, whether it's branded goods or private channels, they can help You get the lowest discount! I got a 65% discount on this necklace. The original price was more than 500,000 yuan, and I bought it for more than 300,000 yuan."
I was instantly angry. Zhou Buyan clearly knew the economic situation of Wu Julan and me, but he said such a thing, which made it clear that he would disgust me and Wu Julan. I asked myself, since I met her, I have never done anything wrong to her, but she has always been inexplicably hostile to me.
I was about to speak when Wu Julan put his hand on my shoulder and pressed it lightly, signaling me to stay calm.
Wu Julan said to Zhou Buyan, "Thank you for your kindness, but I never buy discounted goods."
From childhood to adulthood, I have always believed in repaying virtue with virtue and grievance with grievance, and immediately made up for it, "Real good things should never be discounted."
Zhou Buyan's face was ugly, and he couldn't hold back his sweet smile any longer. He almost gritted his teeth and said, "Who can't be a chuī? It's like it's on sale, so you can afford it..."
"Buyan!" Zhou Buwen shouted, preventing Zhou Buyan from saying more ugly words, but what he had said could not be taken back.
I said calmly, "We can't afford to..."
"Xiaoluo, stop pretending to be poor!"
In the tense atmosphere, Wu Liangliang's voice suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention.
With a cold face, Jiang Yisheng said to Wu Liangliang, "Xiaoluo should not be familiar with you. If you drink too much, I will send you back now."
Jiang Yisheng defended me without hesitation.
Jiang Yisheng's words were quite rude. Everyone was waiting for Wu Liangliang to turn her face. She didn't expect Wu Liangliang to smile. One of the gray stones used to place bonsai said: "Such a large piece of snail jade is sold in the market, at least one million."
She patted the gray stone lovingly, "If I'm not wrong, the conch jade contained in this coral reef should be from the Triassic period. It is not only valuable for entertainment, but also for research. If you get it from the auction house, It is also very possible to shoot for a sky-high price.”
I looked at the inconspicuous stone with a laugh, and Jiang Yisheng also laughed, squeezed and said, "What are you saying is true? Then we will sell it to you."
Wu Liangliang glanced at Jiang Yisheng, "You can question my beauty, but never question my mind!"
As Wu Liangliang walked swaying, she pointed to the decorations placed around the room and said: "Sen-wing snails, Venus eyeballs, Tianwang baby, Lin's spindle snails, red-ribbed calamus snails, tassel scroll snails, Dragon Palace Weng Rongluo, high waisted Weng Rongluo, Beiliweng Rongluo... are all rare treasures!"
Wu Liangliang stopped in front of the ancient shelf in the study, bent down and stared at a calcified conch, and said, "During the Ordovician and Silurian periods, nautilus lived in the ocean, and it has been more than 400 million years. Compared with our human evolution history of more than 7 million years, they are the aborigines of the earth. In 1954, the United States developed the world's first nuclear submarine based on the structure of the nautilus, named 'Nautilus'. Because of its rarity, in the 1990s, a live nautilus sold for $100,000, which was still priceless. In recent years, although nautilus can be artificially cultivated due to advances in biotechnology, the survival rate is very low. On the shell of the current nautilus, there are 30 growth lines; on the nautilus shell of the Cenozoic Oligocene, there are 26 growth lines; the Mesozoic Cretaceous is 22; the Jurassic is 18; the Paleozoic Carboniferous is 15; Ordovician is 9. The growth lines on this nautilus shell are 18, I can judge with great confidence that this is a Jurassic nautilus, the price..." Wu Liangliang crooked After thinking for a while, he shook his head, "I have no way to assess its value. In the eyes of some people, it is not a gem, not an antique, and worthless! But in the eyes of some people, it is a record of the development of this planet. The book from heaven, there are endless secrets waiting to be discovered, which are priceless!"
Originally, everyone in the room took Wu Liangliang's words as a joke, but with the familiar and unfamiliar professional terms popping out of Wu Liangliang's mouth smoothly, everyone felt that what Wu Liangliang said was true. .
Not only was I blinded, but Jiang Yisheng and Zhou Buwen were also blinded.
Wu Liangliang walked up to Jiang Yisheng, stared at him and asked, "I said Xiaoluo pretended to be poor, am I wrong?"
Jiang Yisheng came back to his senses and immediately admitted that he was wrong: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. Xiaoluo is not pretending to be poor, but she doesn't know what she has at all."
Wu Liangliang raised her eyebrows, her eyes swept across Wu Julan's face and landed on mine, she asked in surprise, "You don't know anything?"
"I heard that the conch you mentioned are rare, but I don't know about the Triassic conch jade and Jurassic nautilus fossils."
Wu Liangliang said with a smile, "So that's how it is! I thought you were wealthy and didn't take these things seriously, which made me wonder how many treasures you have."
Zhou Buyan's face was ashen, without saying a word, he turned and ran upstairs, stepping on the stairs making a thud, Zhou Buwen said apologetically to us, "Excuse me!" and immediately chased after him.
The atmosphere in the living room fell awkwardly silent.
Wu Liangliang smiled and said, "Tonight's dinner was great! Thank you and Brother Wu for your hospitality. It's getting late. I have to be on the morning shift tomorrow, so I will leave first."
I took her to the door, "Thank you, if I hadn't met you, I wouldn't even know there were these things at home."
Wu Liangliang smiled and said, "You're welcome!"
I pushed Jiang Yisheng hard, and Jiang Yisheng hurriedly said, "I'll send you off."
Wu Liangliang smiled generously and did not refuse.
Watching Jiang Yisheng and Wu Liangliang walk away, I was about to lock the courtyard door when I turned around and saw Zhou Buyan came out with a suitcase, Zhou Buwen also followed her anxiously with his suitcase.
I said nothing and stepped aside. Zhou Buyan didn't even look at me, he held his head high, and walked out of the yard quickly.
Zhou Buwen looked at me apologetically, but stopped talking.
I said, "you hurry up and accompany Zhou Buyan, it's always inconvenient for her to find the inn alone so late."
"Xiaoluo, don't take what happened today, I'll come back and apologize to you later." After Zhou Buwen finished speaking, he hurried to chase after Zhou Buyan.
I listened to the sound of his footsteps fading away, and after a moment of melancholy, I closed the courtyard door.
In the living room, Wu Julan is cleaning, wrapping up the unfinished fruit and putting it in the refrigerator, re-sealing the unfinished wine, wiping the table, sweeping the floor...
I squatted on the ground and looked at the nautilus stone for a while, then ran to the study and looked at the nautilus fossil for a while.
I said happily: "Wu Julan, I seem to have suddenly become a rich man, what do you think?"
Wu Julan asked, "What do you think?"
can take care of you!
I've thought about it countless times, but I didn't have the guts to say, "I'm so happy! It's so embarrassing that the pie suddenly fell from the sky!"
Wu Julan smiled and rubbed my head and said, "It turns out that it's so simple to make you happy."
Simple? How easy is it to lose money from the sky? How many people dream of it but it is difficult to achieve it?
I said: "A noble person like you will not understand the grand ambitions of a shallow person like me! Every time I am despised by Zhou Buyan and have no money, I pretend to be very cold, because there is really no other way. , In fact, what I want to do most is to use money to smash her back. Whatever the enemy is most proud of, retaliate against her with whatever is the best victory!"
