Chapter 6 The golden light is dazzling and moving


Sure enough, there was a silk and satin shop not far ahead, and a woman dressed as a young woman was coming out of it.

When she lowered her head, a gold hairpin on the side of her hair slipped off and fell on the bluestone street with a soft tinkling sound. .

But in this bustling place, this slight movement was immediately drowned in the noisy environment.

The daughter-in-law beside the young woman was holding one arm diligently, and there was another maid carrying large and small bags, but they didn't even notice the golden hairpin that fell.

The little Taoist nun behind Xia Xiaodong took two steps forward and was about to pick up the golden hairpin.

However, a hand suddenly reached out from beside him and picked up the gold hairpin gently and deftly.

The hand was obviously a woman's.

It was not white and tender, and the fingers were thick and short, making it look a bit stout.

"What are you doing?"

the little Taoist nun shouted angrily, feeling dissatisfied.

"Can't you pick it up?"

The appearance of the owner of that hand matched that hand very well.

He was a short, sturdy girl with a round, red face with a weathered look.

The round-faced girl looked confused and asked: "Is this thing yours?"

Well, the little Taoist nun was immediately embarrassed.

"It's not mine," the little Taoist nun was still a little reluctant, and said gloomily, "But it's not yours either."

The round-faced girl looked down at the gold hairpin in her hand, then looked up again to see that the young woman who had dropped the gold hairpin had disappeared in the direction she was walking.

"How about we split up?"

the round-faced girl suggested hesitantly.

The little Taoist nun was very moved when she heard this.

This gold hairpin is brilliant and of excellent quality, so it is obviously worth a lot of money.

As the saying goes, you should share half when you meet.

If they were picked up together, they should be divided equally.

"What are you doing here?

Where are you from?"

Before the little Taoist nun could express her position, another boy appeared next to the round-faced girl.

The young man was also short and very strong.

Like the round-faced girl, they were both wearing washed blue coarse cloth clothes.

They looked like they were obviously brother and sister.

"Brother, you came just in time."

The round-faced girl was very happy and raised the gold hairpin on her hand: "We just picked this up" and told the general story in a few words.

It’s just us so soon.

Xia Xiaodong looked at the two brothers and sisters opposite with interest.

The sturdy young man took the gold hairpin, looked at it over and over, and then lectured his sister: "How did my mother teach us not to be greedy for foreign money?

Since it was lost by others, of course we must return it."

The girl with a round face pouted her lips, made a gesture towards the distance, and whispered: "I've gone away a long time ago and I won't go back."

The sturdy young man hesitated when he told his sister, and then said: "I didn't find it now, so I left.

If I find it later, I might come back, so let's wait here."

Since these two people were ready to wait for the owner at the same place, Xia Xiaodong called the two little Taoist nuns and prepared to move on.

The little Taoist nun who almost picked up the gold hairpin was reluctant to leave.

She pulled Xia Xiaodong's sleeve and shouted: "They said it nicely.

When we leave, won't they take everything away?"

She was still thinking about sharing it equally.

Xia Xiaodong couldn't help but laugh: "There is only one hairpin, even if we divide it, why don't you go and break the hairpin into two pieces and take half of it?"

The sturdy young man was upright.

Seeing that the little Taoist nun was unwilling to leave, he immediately said with a smile: "Why don't we wait together?

If there is money to thank us later, we will share it equally."

The young man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his smile was full of white teeth, and he looked very sincere.

Xia Xiaodong was not interested in gold hairpins or money, but he thought the brother and sister were a bit interesting, and the little Taoist nun insisted, so he stayed.

A few people stood and looked around and waited next to the silk shop, and naturally started talking by name.

It turns out that the brother and sister's surname is Li, the elder brother is called Li Dalang, and the younger sister's name is Ah Fu, and they are farmers on the outskirts of the city.

Taking advantage of the Fu Ri Festival, he came to the city and brought the bamboo and rattan baskets and other items that he had made during the off-season to sell.

Just now, Li Dalang went to hand over the items to a familiar shop for consignment.

Hearing that Xia Xiaodong and the other three came from Xianyi Temple, Li Dalang's eyes flickered imperceptibly, then disappeared.

He just smiled and said: "Xianyi Temple is far away, so it's not easy to come out.

Today is a good day."

It’s better to go shopping.”

Ah Fu was already impatient with waiting, and immediately said: "After waiting for so long, people probably won't come looking for it.

Let's keep an eye on this hairpin.

Maybe they will just stand around as usual, and they won't even have time to go shopping. ."

He just pouted and stared at Li Dalang, obviously hoping that his brother would relent and stop waiting.

Li Dalang hesitated for a long time, and then suggested that the few of them go in the direction of the woman who lost the hairpin, so that they could not delay shopping and find the owner along the way.

Xia Xiaodong didn't care, since she didn't recognize him anywhere, no matter where he went.

The two little Taoist nuns wanted to share the money equally, so they agreed immediately.

So I walked along the road.

It's a pity that this group of people seems to have a lot of people, but they really don't have much spending power.

Needless to say, the Li brothers and sisters only bought some salt, flint and other things along the way.

Xia Xiaodong didn't have a few taels of money to begin with, and he was focused on saving money in preparation for running away in the future.

The little Taoist nun simply had no money at all.

A few people just wanted to watch and shop, so they naturally walked around quickly.

Soon they turned into another side street, but it was wider and more lively.

Ah Fu looked around and said with a smile: "There is really no trace of him, let's break up."

Li Dalang's face sank and he said angrily: "Looking at your potential, you would think you just picked up a golden mountain."

Ah Fu flattened his lips and said with a smile: "After all, it was for free.

If we don't divide it up, wouldn't it be in vain if we hand it over to the Yamen?

Those scoundrels in the Yamen will be freed.

I'm afraid they won't even be able to say thank you by then. ” Perhaps the reputation of the local government office was really bad.

When Li Dalang heard what his sister said, he didn't insist anymore.

He just took two steps back with a dark face, as if he suddenly found the bluestone slab under his feet very interesting.

Ah Fu couldn't help but smile when he saw his brother's acquiescence.

With his round face, round eyes, and curved mouth, he looked just like the big clay figure Ah Fu.

He waved to the little Taoist nun and motioned for him to go to the corner to talk.

If we really want to separate, it will be a bit troublesome.

There is only one gold hairpin.

It is exquisite in style and well-made.

If it is broken into two pieces, its value will inevitably drop significantly.

But if the gold hairpin is not damaged, then the party who takes the gold hairpin must subsidize some silver to the other party.

So the problem arises, neither Ah Fu nor the little Taoist nun can come up with money.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time and muttered, and finally agreed to take the gold hairpin to a pawn shop and divide the money equally.

Seeing that there were another twists and turns, the little Taoist nun couldn't get the money for a while.

She pouted unconsciously and turned around to tell Xia Xiaodong that she wanted to go to the pawn shop.

Xia Xiaodong shook his head
