Chapter 32 Jade Pearl
Chapter 32 Jade Pearl
玉珠
When he was young, Chi Xiansheng often wore gray and white clothes, a jacket with a stand-up collar, and a plaid shirt.Carry a hero pen with you, fill with Prussian blue ink, use Dorian paper, eat roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, and prefer to look at the sea than the distant mountains.
Unknowingly, all kinds of habits are like Ji Shu Zi.He was looking forward to, secretly looking forward to the person he wanted to be when he grew up.
'It would be great if I could switch bodies with Shu Zi.If it really doesn't work, at least the appearance is somewhat similar, and the sight of the mother looking over again can somewhat reduce a trace of disappointment. '
At that time, with such a mood, Chi Xiansheng followed behind Shu Zi, and Chi Xiansheng got through the absurdity of his youth little by little.
"Rabbits don't eat grass by the side of their nests." Chi Ge elongated his voice, put the extra tableware on the turntable, and waited for the waiter to remove it from the dish delivery port, and served hot dishes, "Besides, you are still an old rabbit."
"Why run all over the mountain when there is grass beside the nest." Shu Zi picked up a small piece of mushroom, put it on a bone china plate, propped his elbow, and touched Chi Xiansheng who seemed to have nothing to do with this matter, "You said, yes no?"
"Don't be joking." He pulled down his rolled-up cuffs and said lightly.
"No—" Shu Zi opened and closed his lips, and just as he opened his mouth, a sweet soup was brought in front of him.
"Try this golden jade dish." Mother held a spoon in her hand, scooped up a small bowl of fermented pumpkin dices, and handed it to Shu Zi, "I still remember that you like sweet and sour dishes the most."
Shu Zi blinked at Chi Xiansheng and let it go.
"I knew that Aunt Shen loved me the most in the whole world." She drank a spoonful, smiled contentedly, her eyes bent into crescents, "I went to gangsters this time, and I didn't want to gamble with stones, but I got a piece by chance. Wool material, I saw green after it was opened, luckily, it’s ice jade.”
"Sister Shu Zi is so amazing." The cousin interjected, "Can you take me with you next time? I only saw it on TV, so I'm so curious."
Shu Zi was not in a hurry when the conversation was interrupted, and replied with a smile: "No, Xiaozhu, that place is xenophobic and very dangerous. I'm afraid you will be injured. If I have time next month, I can take you to the Baichengshan mining area. Not much, same thing."
After appeasing his cousin, Shu Zi reached into the pocket of the overalls, took out a red velvet jewelry box, passed Chi Ge, and sent it to his mother, "Throw away the corners of this piece of ice, just hit a bead, a bracelet .The small ones are boring and unspectacular, so I keep them for the children, and the big ones just honor you."
"You, you know the danger in your heart, and you persuade others not to take it seriously, and run wherever you want. This is my birthday today, and I can see each other, but usually I don't even have a letter."
The mother complained in her mouth, stretched her eyebrows, and smiled charmingly. She couldn't hide her joy, opened the jewelry box directly, and put on the bracelet.
"Sister Shu Zi, do you have that jade bead on you?" The cousin stared at the bracelet, eyes dazed, "Can you show me? The bracelet is so beautiful, the jade bead must not be far behind."
"Big ones are luxurious, smaller ones are more delicate." Finding out a light gray drawstring velvet bag, Shu Zi handed it over.
The cousin held it in the palm of her hand, pinched the jade bead with two fingers, played with it carefully for a while, and said inadvertently: "You don't have anyone you want to give away, right? Why don't you just give it to me? I really like it. Besides, I Just kids."
"It's true that there is no one I want to give away." Shu Zi brushed her curly long hair, smiling in her eyes, "But when it comes to children, you are not the only one present, Xiaozhu."
Chi Xiansheng bit off a piece of celery, and in the crowd full of guests, he suddenly raised his head, as if Shu Zi meant something.
Walnut-sized emerald jade beads are transparent in texture, as clear as water, as if the dust has settled down, the lead is washed away, and the square inches are full of calmness, showing a subtle and delicate luster.
"Just this one, who do you want to give it to?" The mother followed everyone's gaze.
Emerald jade beads are beautiful. Chi Xiansheng often plays with small objects on weekdays. There is something in his hand, and he feels empty. He can even pinch the zipper on his clothes, but he has no intention of snatching things from his cousin. The jade beads are too precious. .
Furthermore, the relationship between him and Shu Zi was exhausted a few years ago. Even though they have been together for a long time, now that they think about it, there are only a few flashing images in their minds.
"Xiao Zhu is a girl like me, and emotionally, he needs to be closer and more biased." Shu Zi explained, "After all, they are sisters, and they can hold hands when going to the bathroom."
"And you came late, I didn't hear you." A middle-aged woman wearing a red silk scarf sitting across the table said, "Xiao Zhu just played a piece of music, what is it called... Forget it, don't care , anyway, I think those big stars, masters, etc. who are on fire now are not as good as her, she is really a very good girl."
Shu Zi said "oh" slowly, thinking of something, nodded in agreement, and curled the corners of her lips, "I have known Xiaozhu for two years, she is very cute, I am old enough to call her aunt, and I still call her sister all the time. "
"No, no." The cousin quickly waved her hand, "Sister Shu Zi, you are very young, and your skin is super good. Standing with me, you really look like a sister."
"Little girl." Shu Zi let out a muffled laugh and raised his eyebrows, "However, I have known Ah Sheng since I was 13 years old, and now I am 25 years old, a total of 12 years. To this day, I still remember the day I left, Ah Sheng walked With two short legs, he chased after the taxi for two streets, and his figure disappeared little by little."
Even though it really happened four years ago, the other party was himself, and Chi Xiansheng still felt strange, like hearing someone else's story.Teenagers are inattentive, and all the persistent, painful, and unwilling things are gone in a blink of an eye, and new things will soon fill the world.
The emerald jade beads were lying in the velvet bag and placed by Chi Xiansheng's hand.
The cousin couldn't believe it. The abacus was so sure, but it suddenly came to nothing. In an instant, the sense of loss rose in her heart.
She could never have imagined that Shu Zi, who has always been close, would choose someone else, or Chi Xiansheng, who has been in a weak position since he came in, and whose presence is not as low as that of the waiter.
The entire dining room was silent. Chi Xiansheng swallowed a piece of pear meat, took out a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth. He just wanted to have a quiet meal, so he pushed away the bulging velvet bag and said softly, "See you again." On the one hand, I am already very relieved, the past is over, so I don’t need to keep thinking about it. Thank you for your gift, there is no reason, and it is not appropriate for me to accept it, so why not give it to my cousin.”
"How could it be inappropriate." Chi Ge's arm blocked it, grabbed the flannel bag, put it in his palm, and gritted his teeth, "As soon as I mentioned the incident that day, I wanted to send her a court summons. You just throw the beads on the ground now. Not too much."
"Wait, wait—" Shu Zi leaned back, giving room for the two to talk, "It's understandable to throw jade beads, but what is a court summons? Don't talk nonsense."
Chi Ge curled his lips, turned his head, concentrated on the dishes on the plate, and ignored them.Chi Xiansheng put down the velvet bag in his hand, and handed the briefcase back to Chi Ge, "That's it, there should be a copy in it that I signed, you can leave it to her for me, and after she signs it, I will come to you to get it back." .”
"Sign what?" Shu Zi realized, "You want to leave?"
Chi Xiansheng nodded, and slightly pursed the corners of his lips, "Go ahead, I have something to do this afternoon."
"Then let's call?" Shu Zi raised his head and asked.
He took out his mobile phone, exchanged numbers, and there was nothing to do.Finally, he glanced around, bowed his head in silence for a moment, said happy birthday to his mother, turned and left.
As soon as he left the room, the outside air poured into his nose, and Chi Xiansheng's heart sank instantly. There was a lot of people downstairs, and the sun outside the window peeled off the clouds. call.
"...Little friend...Little Strawberry...Little brother...Little Dot...Little Huangli...Little Pink Cat...Little Xiansheng!"
He turned sideways and looked towards the source of the sound. The man was wearing a pink disposable mask, leaning against the railing on the second floor, and waving at him.
Familiar uncle sports pants, familiar old man's shirt.
