Is there a clear stream above the clouds?

I have heard a little about the young owner of this Kunliang Villa, that is, my senior brother Zhou You, who has told some deeds about this villa.

I heard that this Kunliang Villa gathers the world's treasures, for a period of three years, when the spring flowers bloom, it will invite people from all walks of life to martial arts, and people from all over the world who come to do business, of course, there are some discerning treasure connoisseurs.

These rare treasures, to speak, only thirty percent of them were obtained by Kunliang Villa in the past three years, and the remaining seventy percent were the "stepping stones" that everyone came to gather and carry. If no one is introduced, you need to show the treasure before you can enter the Duanbao banquet.

Everyone went to the villa to gather to see the rare treasures that have been newly acquired in the past three years. And select a small part of them to be included in the "Book of Treasures", these rare treasures and the masters on the "Lingyun Lu" have their own rankings, and this ranking is also in this treasure banquet, by the appreciation of the people to recommend.

If this rare treasure can be on the "Treasure Book", the price of the treasure will increase several times overnight, which can make the person who owns this treasure rich overnight. But even so, a large number of people still flock to the Duanbao Banquet every time, just to pursue the possibility of being listed in the "Book of Treasures".

The senior brother went down the mountain and returned to the village this time, in order to run the three-year "Duanbao Banquet" with Zhou Yuanshan, the owner of Kunliang Villa.

And the day of this feast was ten days later.

I think this should be the busiest time for the senior brother at this time, so it is better to settle in the town at the foot of the mountain outside the village for a few days before making plans.

This town outside the village, named Kunliang Town, is also the boundary of Kunliang Villa, these years because of the "Duanbao Banquet", often people come and go, at the foot of this mountain also attracted some homeless people to gather here, over time, actually formed a small village where refugees gathered.

After the owner of the village knew about it, he waved his hand and allocated a lot of silver taels to the refugees at the foot of the mountain to settle down.

So the grateful people built a stone tablet and placed it at the gate of the town, and it was written: Kunliang Town.

Speaking of which, the father of the senior brother is really like the elder brother, and he is very benevolent.

Noon.

When I arrived in Kunliang Town, there was still a scene of half of the former homeless people, and in its place, it was a small town that was quite affluent at first sight. The town is nestled among green mountains and rivers and is surrounded by fertile land. The blue bricks and black tiles are staggered, and the shops on both sides of the street are lined up, and all kinds of goods are dazzling. The townspeople are not dressed in fine clothes, but most of them are clean.

Because of the upcoming Duanbao banquet, Kunliang Town is already very lively, with taverns, restaurants, and even roadside tea stalls full of people. So that this small town, which is not very big, has nowhere to settle for a while.

I walked through the streets and wandered around.

Bustling

crowds come and go on the wide streets. The cries of hawkers, the beating of craftsmen, the chatter and laughter of travelers, and the sound of horses' hooves and wheels mingle together. Sometimes, you can see richly dressed ladies or merchants looking in front of the shops, and they don't look like locals.

I wandered to the juggler's stall and watched the juggling for a while, cheering with the crowd.

Then I looked up at the sky, and the sun was setting above me, thinking it was noon.

At this time, I was hungry and smelled the aroma of all kinds of food in the air, and tempting snacks such as barbecued meat, fried fish, and sugar gourds were everywhere.

It's hard to imagine that this was once a refugee colony.

While sighing at the kindness of the owner of the boat, how many people have lived and worked in peace and contentment with his big hand, I searched for food on the roadside.

But suddenly he heard shouting and scolding in front of him.

"Your? You were right next to me just now! Who are you?" the voice was a little sharp and sharp, it was a woman's voice.

I followed the sound and saw that there were already a lot of people around the place.

So I was curious and squeezed to the front row to eat melons.

In front of her was a domineering woman, dressed brightly and gorgeously, with intricate headdresses, seemingly from a merchant family. There was anger on her face, and at her side stood two young attendants, a man and a woman, who stared at the people lying on the ground in front of her as fiercely as she did.

Opposite her was a slightly younger woman half-lying on the ground, her face dirty, and her face unclear. Faced with the questioning of the three people in front of her, she was silent and did not speak.

The woman on the other side stepped forward again with a menacing attitude.

Seeing this, I was about to step forward.

At this time, another enthusiastic melon-eating crowd spoke: "Don't do it, there's something to say!"

This woman thought that it was indeed inappropriate to do it in public, so she took a deep breath and said to the people who ate melons: "Ladies and gentlemen, at first I just bought a jade bracelet in good color in the pearl and jade shop, and when I walked here, I found that it was gone. There was only this woman around. Originally, I didn't doubt it, but who knew that this jade bracelet was worn on this woman's wrist. So saying, she stooped down and picked up the wrist of the woman who was half lying on the ground.

There was indeed a jade bracelet of good color on it, and the woman twisted her wrist in displeasure.

Then the woman pointed to the woman on the ground and said, "But where does this woman look like she can wear such a high-quality jade bracelet?

The woman lowered her eyes and said nothing, but the crowd around her began to whisper, most began to agree with the woman's point of view, and a few did not hear a word.

I saw that the crowd tended to be one-sided, and the woman had no intention of arguing, so I was really a little overwhelmed, and immediately said to the woman: "This lady, you are too good to judge people by your appearance, and the dignitaries of the high families are still down." Besides, you have to blame this jade bracelet for being stolen by this woman, but how can there be any reason for the thief to blatantly put the stolen goods on his hands and wait for people to see them?".

As soon as the spectators heard this, some of them began to agree: "Yes, yes, that's stupid." "

The woman was dumbfounded, and was about to argue.

I then said, "You said that you lost your bracelet because it was not good for you, and it was your family's argument from beginning to end, didn't you let everyone help you pull the shelf?" I said as I took my fan and knocked it on the ground in my hand, quite like a storyteller.

The woman was obviously not a person who did not understand the slightest human feelings, and she answered: "This girl, I am not an unreasonable person, but I can't help it, before my little servant questioned this woman, she only said 'this is hers' and did not speak, and I can only do it in a hurry!"

When I heard this, I squatted down beside the woman, helped her up, and asked softly, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

I saw that the woman raised her eyes, and her quiet eyes gradually glowed with a halo.

Then she spoke slowly to me, "Girl, this is my family heirloom. And then, there was no more.

When I saw that I could not ask anything from the woman, I said to the woman, "Madam, since this girl also said that the bracelet was hers, I and you cannot quarrel." That's better than ......

."

Madame asked, "What?"

I said, "Ask the owner of the jade shop to identify them? "

Madame nodded in agreement, and hurriedly sent the little maid on the side to ask.

But after a while, the owner of the jade shop came.

The crowd of onlookers did not disperse, and they had to eat a full set of melons.

The shopkeeper of the jewel shop first arched his hand to the lady and the guests, and then stretched out his hand directly to the woman and said, "Girl, can you borrow the bracelet to have a look?"

The woman gave him a cold look, then took off the bracelet and handed it to him without a word.

The shopkeeper of the jewel shop picked up the bracelet and looked at the sunlight twice, and immediately came to a conclusion.

"Although the appearance of this jade bracelet is similar to the one that Mrs. Chen purchased some time ago, it seems to be made of materials and appearance, and it is made of mutton fat and white jade, so if you don't know much about jade, you shouldn't be able to see any difference. But those who understand jade can know at a glance that the texture of this jade bracelet is extremely delicate and moisturizing, the oiliness is excellent, and there are almost no impurities.

Madame froze in place, muttering, "Valuable...... Then I'm ......".

Before the words fell, I heard a voice from the outside of the crowd: "Madam, Madam, I found it, I found it!" At this time, Mrs. Chen's maid pushed through the crowd and handed over an object wrapped in white cloth.

Mrs. Chen hurriedly took it and opened it to take a look.

It was the jade bracelet that he had lost.

Suddenly, the arrogance just now dissipated instantly, and a very apologetic look suddenly appeared on his face, and his tone was much softer, and he said to the woman in white: "Uh, girl, I'm really embarrassed." I was anxious just now, and I don't think it's strange. "

At this time, the two attendants beside the woman began to disperse the crowd: "Disperse, disperse!"

When the crowd of onlookers saw that the truth had been revealed and that the ending was satisfying, they dispersed in a hurry.

Seeing that the matter was over, the woman first whispered thanks to me, and then without looking at Mrs. Chen, she plunged into the crowd and left without looking back.

Mrs. Chen and her entourage were left standing in place, and Mrs. Chen looked at the back of the woman leaving, not knowing what to think.
