Chapter 778 Begonia Jade Plate

In the blink of an eye, she is already 41 years old. In the past few years since she came here, she has been down-to-earth and diligent. Her children are also making steady progress according to her goals.

They are not rich, but they have enough food and clothing.

Although the days of living in the countryside are dull, they are rare and comfortable. Bai Yunxi has a hunch that as Xiaowu progresses step by step, her family's dull days will become less and less. It's not that the family is not harmonious, but as Xiaowu moves up step by step, he will come into contact with more and more people, and people's hearts are complicated. It takes a lot of effort to deal with the worldly affairs.

Of course, these tasks are Xiaowu's wife's, and she only needs to participate occasionally.

After the first month of the year, the farmers enter the busy period of farming again, but for Xiaowu, it is time to pack up and set off to Kyoto to participate in the imperial examination.

This is his first time to go far away. Speaking of it, Bai Yunxi is a little worried. No matter how deep his thoughts are, after all, his age is there. If something really happens, it is hard to say whether he can keep his emotions stable.

But there are too many things to do at home, so she really can't go to Kyoto with Xiaowu at the moment. After thinking for a long time, Bai Yunxi could only prepare more money for him. It's good to bring more money for a poor family.

Fortunately, Song State treated students preferentially. Students who went to Beijing for the imperial examination not only received travel expenses from the government, but also stayed in post stations for free along the way. This alone was much safer than the vendors along the way.

Even so, she had to go to the county. Some things had to be explained in person, otherwise she would always feel uneasy.

When this idea came up in her mind, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but curl her lips. She had been an old mother for a long time and she was deeply involved in it.

Taking advantage of her free time, Bai Yunxi opened her cabinet again and prepared to prepare some items for Xiaowu to use on the road. Looking at the messy cabinet, Bai Yunxi held her forehead. Many of the things she bought in the past few years were stored in the storage cabinet, and she only stuffed a little into the cabinet occasionally.

I always thought there weren't many things, so I never sorted them out. Today, when I opened it, it was really messy and unbearable.

Since it was opened, Bai Yunxi thought about tidying it up and took out everything in the cabinet. When she turned to the bottom, her fingers suddenly touched a hard box.

Bai Yunxi was stunned for a moment, picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was a gray camphorwood box.

Strangely enough, she had never dug to the bottom for so many years, and she really didn't know that there was such a box at the bottom of the box, and she didn't know what was inside.

There was only a lock on the box, which opened with a pinch.

Bai Yunxi pinched her nose. Because it hadn't been opened for a long time, the box exuded a camphorwood smell, which dissipated in a moment.

There was nothing else except a jade plate inside. Looking at this jade plate, Bai Yunxi was quite curious and picked it up to observe carefully.

A round piece of white jade, with a hollow crabapple flower carved in the middle, decorated with a white jade bead of the same material, and a royal blue tassel hanging below.

Look at the quality of this white jade, it is transparent and moist, and the crabapple flower is carved vividly. It is obvious that it is from the hands of a master carver.

It was not until Bai Yunxi held this piece of white jade that some forgotten memories were revealed.

It suddenly occurred to her that this piece of white jade belonged to the old scholar, and it was also the only ornament on the body of the original owner's father when he rescued the person.

At that time, the original owner's parents thought that this jade card should be related to the old scholar's life experience, so they carefully helped him collect it. Even when the old scholar died of critical illness, the original owner was reluctant to take it out to pawn it.

After that, she came through the soul, and the house was a mess. She directly threw this matter behind her. If it weren't for rummaging through the cabinet today, she really wouldn't have found it.

In memory, when the original owner's father rescued the person, the person was covered with wounds and half-dead. There is no need to ask the story is also very exciting. Involving the old scholar's life experience, Bai Yunxi pinched the center of his eyebrows weakly.

The original owner had kept this jade tablet, and must have hoped that one day the truth about the old scholar's life story would be revealed. But now, the couple went to the underground to reunite, so what if the life story was revealed to the world?

If there was really any secret involved, she was unwilling to get involved. Good days were moving forward, and her idle days were about to come. If the old scholar's life story was suddenly revealed, it would definitely be bad for her salted fish life.

Besides, she never thought of relying on others to make a living, but just wanted to take a few children to move forward steadily, so that the children would experience that every step was difficult, and they would cherish the hard-earned life in the future.

If a carp suddenly jumped over the dragon gate, it would be a sudden wealth for the children in the countryside, which was not necessarily a good thing.

Just when Bai Yunxi was staring at the crabapple flowers in a daze, she heard her daughter calling her carefully.

"Mom, what are you looking at?"

Bai Yunxi came back to her senses and saw her daughter staring at the jade token in her hand, so she waved at her,

"Nothing, I just cleaned up the cabinet and prepared some things for Xiaowu to use on the way to Beijing, but I didn't expect to find this jade token."

Bai Anjing stared at the jade token, her face blank. She had seen this when she was a child. Her father said it was an old item and a memory.

Mom hadn't taken it out for these years, but she didn't expect that she would stare at the jade token in a daze today. She must be missing her father.

Think about it, in the blink of an eye, my father has been gone for four or five years, and my mother has been busy with them alone, and she has no time to rest. Fortunately, the hard work finally paid off. Their family's life got better day by day, and my mother could finally take a breath and rest. Unexpectedly, as soon as she was free, my mother began to miss her father.

Listening to her daughter's tone, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but tremble at the corners of her mouth. When did she miss Lao Juren? The couple was having an affectionate relationship underground, why was she meddling in it?

Complaints are complaints, Bai Yunxi looked at her daughter and asked curiously,

"Why, Xiaojing also knows about this jade tablet?"

Listening to his mother's question, Bai Anjing blinked.

"When I was a kid, I saw my dad take it out and look at it. I was curious and asked about it. My dad said it was an old thing and a thought he had. As for who he was thinking about, he didn't say."

Baiyunxi: "..."

Judging from his daughter's tone, it seems that Lao Juren already knows his life experience?

When this idea came to his mind, Bai Yunxi blinked and looked down at the jade token in his hand. To be able to regard this as an old object must be because the memory has been restored.

But there is nothing in the original owner’s memory about Lao Juren’s restored memory. In other words, Lao Juren’s restored memory did not tell the original owner that he would still live the same life as before.

Bai Yunxi narrowed her eyes and rubbed her fingers. Seeing Lao Juren's attitude, it seemed that she didn't want to go back to the original place.

Thinking about it, if he could escape from there half-dead, his memory would not be a good one.
