Chapter 386 Persuasion
But he didn’t expect that after his grandfather passed away, the stall owner really saw the magic of the heirloom.
Thinking about it now, he still regrets his words and deeds that always went against his grandfather, although he later went to the old man's grave to apologize.
After all, death is like the extinguishing of a light.
However, if the old man were still alive in heaven, he would be very happy to know that this heirloom is really a real treasure, right?
As to whether Grandpa knew the magical power of this treasure, he tended to be unaware.
Because, until his grandfather's generation, the heirloom was carefully kept in the family. It was only when he was a naughty child that he stole it out and tried various experiments with it.
It was also his sudden impulse to take this heirloom to the city for appraisal.
If he hadn't carried the heirloom with him, if he hadn't happened to have been in a car accident.
Due to so many coincidences, he was so lucky to discover the magic of his family heirloom.
If we keep hiding this heirloom like the older generation did, then the pearl will always be covered in dust and there will be no chance of discovering that it is actually a genuine treasure.
Ever since he discovered the true value of the heirloom, he has become very curious about the history of his ancestors.
Unfortunately, it has been too long and most of the elders in my family have passed away.
Even if you ask, all you get are some specious legends that are obviously too subjective. Their authenticity...it's good if they are 30% true.
Gradually, he gave up.
No matter what, this treasure belongs to him now, and that's enough.
……
"is it?"
Xiao Xiao murmured softly, then he raised his head and discussed with the stall owner with a smile, "Boss, I have always been interested in this aspect."
"Can you show me this heirloom of yours?"
"This one……"
The stall owner looked embarrassed. Regardless of whether it would have any impact or not, he already had no time to hide his treasure, so how could he let others touch it easily?
No matter how I think about it, I feel uneasy.
He smiled in an extremely embarrassed manner, and his tone was extremely apologetic, but his refusal was obvious.
"Classmate, look, this heirloom has always been kept at home for worship. I have been having bad luck recently, so I took it out and brought it with me in the hope of changing my fortune."
"Whether it's useful or not, I just want peace of mind."
"Haha."
The stall owner burst into laughter, but seeing Xiao Xiao's lukewarm attitude, just looking at him with interest, his laughter was inexplicably stuck.
"Cough cough."
The stall owner touched his buzz cut, and said sincerely, "Student, you can't let anyone touch this kind of thing. It would be bad if it ruins the feng shui of your home."
"So, it's not that I'm stingy. So, if you like something today, I'll give you a 50% discount."
The stall owner patted his chest and made a generous promise.
……
"boss."
Xiao Xiao deliberately lowered his voice and glanced in Su Youjin's direction. "Actually, I don't have to see it."
"But it's rare for my friend to be interested in something, so..."
"Boss, please."
Xiao Xiao's clear features, gentle demeanor, and a hint of sincerity in his eyes were too sincere to refuse.
The stall owner glanced at the pretty but cold girl beside him and understood Xiao Xiao's words "It's rare for you to be interested in something".
It's obvious at first glance that this girl is extremely difficult to please and pursue.
It is also difficult for this student to rise to the challenge.
Such a fearless spirit deserves recognition.
Although, in his opinion, the possibility of the ordinary Xiao Xiao catching up with this girl was basically zero.
But who hasn’t been young and frivolous?
Who hasn’t done a few things beyond their capabilities when they were young? If you like it, go for it.
This is a privilege only for young people.
The stall owner couldn't help but recall his youth.
At that time, he was so bold as to write a love letter to the school beauty.
Although the love letter was like a stone sinking into the sea, without even a splash.
However, the feeling at that time, when I saw the school beauty, I couldn't help but smile, and even though I knew it was impossible, I still couldn't help wanting to get closer and closer, was so beautiful that I can't forget it.
That pure and youthful feeling.
Thinking of this, the stall owner found it difficult for him to refuse the boy who was looking at him eagerly.
This boy must have a rare opportunity to make a beautiful woman smile, right?
Is he going to refuse?
The stall owner hesitated for a long time. Just when he was about to refuse, the boy opposite him said in a depressed voice, "This is my first time, and probably my last time, to date her."
The word "date" was vague, as if he was worried that the girls around him would hear it.
I'm afraid it's only a date in his eyes?
The stall owner's eyes showed some understanding and sympathy.
"So, I want to do my best to leave her with a good memory."
"I want to make her happy."
……
"Classmate, a family heirloom should not be easily passed into the hands of others."
The stall owner was still struggling when he suddenly felt a rough texture on his fingertips. He looked down and found that his hand had touched his family heirloom without him noticing.
The sharp wooden thorns did not hurt him, but he felt a slight tingling sensation.
"Hey."
The stall owner sighed unwillingly, then he carefully picked up the heirloom, and after some hesitation, he finally handed it to Xiao Xiao.
He still looked reluctant, as if he was about to regret it at any moment.
"Thank you, boss."
Xiao Xiao smiled with surprise and gratitude, and his hands moved quickly to take the spherical wooden cage.
He even felt some resistance from above.
With a slight force, the spherical cage was in his hand.
"Hey, classmate, be careful."
The stall owner was shouting and looking nervous.
"Got it, boss."
"Do not worry."
Xiao Xiao comforted the stall owner with a few words, then turned sideways and handed the cage to Su Youjin.
He thought that the girl would prefer to put out the money herself.
……
The sudden turn of events left Su Youjin a little confused.
The moment before, the stall owner had refused her request to see the wooden cage, but at this moment, the wooden cage was already in her hands.
She glanced at Xiao Xiao subconsciously.
She was not very clear about what Xiao Xiao had done before, because all her attention was on Yinzi. She was always thinking about how to get the wooden cage and rescue Yinzi.
Earlier, Xiao Xiao interrupted her. She didn't think much about it at first, just thinking it was a coincidence.
But now, she had some understanding. Xiao Xiao must have deliberately not let her speak.
