Her acting was truly similar to that of a pure and innocent young girl.
Mrs. White Sun glanced at Bai He, and said: "What do you know, an ignorant loser? This is a piece of good jade! "
"It's not fake at all. Ol 'Three, don't talk nonsense!" This was a matter of ten taels of silver, they could not speak carelessly about it!
Seeing Mrs. White Sun's attitude, Bai He could guess that she must be panicking in her heart. She couldn't help but interject from the side, "granny, just ask someone to check if this jade is real or not. Truly, we can all be at ease. As for the fake one, we can also find out earlier. "
Upon hearing her say this, Mrs. White Sun fiercely glared at her and said, "You also know everything."
"Bai He is right. Whether it is true or not, we can find someone to take a look and know. There is no need to hide it." Bai Yanming was rather agreed with that, and said: "Even if we want to seek peace of mind, we have to look for someone to take a look at."
Since the Patriarch had already spoken, how could the others still have any objections? They could only nod in agreement.
White Sun Matriarch had said that she would look for the High Scholar for him the next day.
Bai He looked forward to what would happen next.
After coming over for a night, Mrs. White Sun was indeed as she said, and left with her people.
However, Bai Yanming did not go. Bai He knew that he still cared about being robbed by him in the academy.
Bai He did not care too much, and followed along with her mother. Lady Baisong originally thought that it was nothing, but after being pulled like this, she could only go.
The other people who went were, of course, Bai He's her second uncle's family, and Bai Jingxuan's group.
He knocked on the door of the Tong Residence early in the morning. In the end, it was the house of a High Scholar. A man around the age of forty opened the door and leaned out.
"Do you have any business with the old master?" he asked.
Bai Jingxuan took a step forward, cupped his hands, and said: "We have something important that the Lord High Scholar needs you to help us with. We hope that the Lord High Scholar can help us out when we are in such a rush."
The man looked at them and said, "Alright, you guys wait here. I'll go ask the old master."
"Hmph, isn't he just a High Scholar? "Is there a need to hold Joe in this way?" Lady Baiqian said in disdain. He still wanted to go in to report, did he really treat himself as an official?
"Lady Baiqian, what nonsense are you spouting? The old High Scholar is the old High Scholar. If your words displeased him, you can take care of it yourself! " White Sun grandma immediately scolded loudly.
Lady Baiqian suddenly woke up, she had actually said such outrageous words, she must have been reciting the jade just now, the whole night she was worried, she finally came here to find out the results, and the High Scholar was still not coming out! She was in a hurry, and if she had, she would have come out without thinking.
Bai He laughed on the side. Sigh, she was still reprimanding her for her words, but in the future, there would be a good show.
"Mom, if anything happens, stay away." Bai He thought for a while, but he still whispered a few words into her ears to remind her mother.
Lady Baisong looked at her suspiciously, and was confused. "Xiao He, do you know something?"
Bai He spread out her hands and said: "What do I know? I just feel that that piece of jade is different from Bai Shi's, that's why I said it. "When the time comes, pull your little brother away, don't let him be bullied."
Lady Baisong nodded and said: "Okay." She didn't mind, but Yuan Xiao had to be careful.
Bai Yuanxiao tilted his head to the side, and obediently stood there. He didn't know what his mother and sister were talking about.
Not long after, the man from before finally came out and said, "Master said that he would like to invite you in."
Only then did Lady Baisong hold onto the corner of her clothes and walked in carefully. As she walked, she couldn't help but look around.
This was a huge courtyard, at least four to five times bigger than the big house that Bai He and the others had. There was a plot of land nearby with some unknown yet beautiful flowers growing on it. It was obvious that it had spent quite a bit of money.
"Tsk tsk." Lady Baiqian, who was at the side, was also surprised, "This is a house that a person should live in."
Bai He cursed in her heart, as though her house was no longer a house? After all, they were living in a tile-roofed house, and they were still living in a thatched cottage!
Mrs White Sun glanced at her and said, "Why are you talking? Don't look as if you've never seen the world before."
After Lady Baiqian heard Mrs White Sun say this, he could only shut his mouth.
The few of them followed the person from before, passing through a long corridor and arriving at a room.
"What have you come for?" Tong Jiaming tidied up his gown and asked.
Bai He looked at the old marshal, waiting for someone to speak.
"My lord High Scholar, I am Bai Jingxuan. I have been to the academy before and have always admired your knowledge." Bai Jingxuan stepped forward and began flattering his.
Tong Jiaming looked at him and nodded, "You also have some knowledge. If you study hard, there will be a way out. However, I'm afraid that you are not here to interact with me. " The whole family was here, and most of them didn't recognize a single word. How could they be discussing this?
"It's like this. My mother coincidentally obtained a piece of jade, so I want to ask you to see if this is true or not." Bai Jingxuan did not say anything else as he was afraid that Yue Yang would lose his patience and quickly told him his purpose in coming here.
However, he didn't have the face to say that he had bought the jade.
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly gave Mrs. White Sun a look and told her to quickly bring out the jade.
The White Sun family had no choice but to bring the wrapped up jade stone in front of Tong Jianmo.
Tong Jianmo frowned the moment he saw it. He reached out his hand, and when he saw the jade stone in his palm, he casually lifted it up, causing Mrs Bai Sun and Lady Baiqian to be alarmed. They were afraid that if he wasn't able to hold onto it steadily, it would fall to the ground.
"Lord High Scholar, what kind of jade is this?" Bai Jingxuan waited for a while before he asked.
"Did you guys pick up this jade?" Tong Jiaming looked at them and asked.
Bai Jingxuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "I picked them up from the farmlands."
"Then that's it. This isn't a piece of jade at all, it's a piece of white pebble." Bai Jingxuan looked at them and said, "You guys saw it wrong.
Lady Baiqian also followed: "Lord High Scholar, if you look more carefully, what fool is this kind of jade that you have never seen before?"
Tong Jiaming looked at them and said, "Are you suspecting that I have never seen the world before?"
"Of course not, it's just that my family has some expectations for this jade. If it's really fake, then it's really disappointing." Bai Jingxuan didn't forget to say some impressive words.
Tong Jianmo nodded and said, "I understand you. I'm happy that you suddenly found such a windfall, but it's really just a pebble."
"I …" Bai Yuanxiao had originally wanted to cut in and say that he felt like it was a rock, but was stopped by Bai He.
"Well then, thank you, High Scholar master." Bai Jingxuan still maintained his composure, received the so-called jade piece, gave it to the White Sun family, and walked out.
He had wanted to use this piece of jade to communicate with the old master and get to know him better. But from the looks of it, that was impossible.
"This is impossible!" Lady Baiqian said loudly.
"Let's go, second sister, don't embarrass yourself." Bai Jingxuan was also very disappointed with this pebble. Seeing that Lady Baiqian actually planned to make a ruckus, he immediately spoke without any patience.
Lady Baiqian shook her head hard and said: "Mother, it must be because Master Shi doesn't know him. Wait a minute, what he said must be fake!"
When Tong Jia Mo heard her words, he immediately became unhappy and said: "Lady Baiqian, I helped you guys look after the jade with good intentions, and you guys actually say that I don't know anything about jade? Fine, I'll make you convinced. You guys don't have to leave either. Butler, go and invite Mister Feng over! "
"Who is Mister Feng?" Bai Jingxuan suddenly heard him say that, and asked.
"Mister Feng is naturally the one who manages the jade. Just wait here today. I will let you have a good look at why your jade is fake!" Tong Jianmo was also angered by this group of illiterate people, and actually doubted his ability.
The butler brought the carriage out, and after about four hours, he finally returned.
The moment Mister Feng arrived, he clasped his hands at Tong Jianmo and said, "I heard from you that you were going to recuperate, but I didn't expect that you would really come to this destitute place."
"Let's not talk about this first. These people have a pebble, so I'll say it's jade. Take a good look at it!" Tong Jiaming immediately said.
