Chapter 91 Laughing Buddha Jade Pendant

She stretched out her hand and took the jade pendant from Liu's hand into her own, "Your dowry? Your Liu family can't even afford to eat, and there is such a dowry for you? Who are you deceiving?"

Liu's face was dissatisfied, and he said stubbornly: "Although our Liu family is poor, they are not stingy people. This jade pendant is inherited from our Liu family's ancestors. What's so strange about giving me a dowry?"

The old lady Bai snorted coldly: "That's too strange, your brother is only begging for his wife when he is in his thirties because his family is too poor, just because of your parents' partiality, they will give you good things, and let your brother be poor because of their poverty. And being a bachelor? You have to believe it when you say it."

Liu's face blushed and said, "This thing is passed down from our Liu family to women and not men. Of course it was given to me. What's the problem?"

Mrs. Bai glared at her, and then shouted, "Dazhu, come here."

Dazhu, who was sitting in the backyard enjoying the cool air, rushed over after hearing the words, "Mother, are you looking for me?"

The old lady Bai asked immediately, "When your daughter-in-law married you back then, apart from a tattered quilt, what other dowry was there?"

Bai Dazhu immediately shook his head: "No, except for a broken quilt, there is nothing else, oh, there is also a dress, changed with her mother's half-new clothes, nothing else."

The old lady Bai turned to look at Liu Shi: "Did you hear me?"

Mrs. Liu wanted to say more, but Mrs. Bai waved her hand impatiently: "Shut up, what kind of family is your Liu family? I still don't know? Before you were born, three children starved to death, why? Yes? I don't know how to exchange this good thing for money to survive? And let you bring it to our Bai family?"

Knowing that it was useless to say anything else, Mrs Liu simply shut her mouth and glared at her son and her husband, feeling remorse in her heart. If she asked her to pick it up first, how could she have let the old woman take it away.

Of course, old lady Bai knew that the jade pendant in her hand was a valuable thing. After looking at it a few times, she hurriedly put it into her arms and said to Bai Dabao, "Dabao, where did you find this thing? Is there anything else?"

Dabao pointed to the two legs on the side and said, "It seems to have fallen out of the legs, there is nothing else."

The old lady Bai picked up the leg, looked at it carefully over and over again, and found a thin stick to dig it in the gap for a long time, but nothing came out, so Dabao split the leg. Open, and sure enough there is nothing inside.

Dabao asked, "Nah, why is there a jade pendant in this leg?"

Mrs. Bai shook her head: "I don't know, this corner stand was bought from a grocery store in the town more than ten years ago. It's a second-hand item. Maybe it was hidden by the previous owner of the corner stand. Who knows, but now If it falls to our Bai family, it belongs to the Bai family."

Bai Dabao hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Bai's arm and said, "Ama, this thing must be very valuable, right? Let's exchange it for money, maybe it's more than selling Baizhi." Because the sale of Baizhi was unsuccessful, he said it was about his relatives. He was also facing a failure, and now he has got such a baby, it can be said to be another village in the dark.

The old lady Bai took the jade pendant out of her arms again, looked left and right, she didn't understand very well, she only knew that it looked good, but she didn't know how much it was worth: "Such a good baby, If we want to pass it on as a family heirloom, how can we sell it for money? If someone is deceived, wouldn’t the gain outweigh the loss?”
