Chapter 794 Longevity Lock

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Not only that, this longevity lock is not only about engraving silver patterns, but also about making it. There are many craftsmanship involved here. The longevity lock in the lady's hand is considered top-grade. the best."

Silver is also graded, and the silver locks produced by different silvers are naturally different.

Compared with the selected silver, the craft of making silver, the silver pattern on the longevity lock is only at the bottom, but it is the craft at the bottom, and it is also a top-notch craft among silversmiths.

And people who can have such skills can be counted in the whole Dajin.

Outsiders may not know who it is, but they are in this business, and they can tell at a glance that this is the craftsmanship of Xia Dajiang in Shangzhou.

Laymen watch the excitement and only look at the silver patterns on the Longevity Lock, but what they experts look at is the craftsmanship of making silver locks. , let alone break the silver lock.

Man Bao asked: "Master Xia is so powerful, isn't it very expensive to buy the longevity lock he made?"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "It depends on how you buy it. If it's ready and displayed in the store, it's not too expensive, but if it's specially made like a lady, let alone one hundred and eighty taels. I'm afraid it will be difficult to attract Master Xia in terms of human relationship."

Man Bao asked curiously, "How can you tell that this is made to order?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Man Bao suspiciously. He recognized Man Bao. After all, Ji Shitang was diagonally opposite, and the incident with Young Master Ji was quite a trouble back then. As the big shopkeeper of a wealthy and powerful owner in Yizhou City, He wondered if it was full of treasures.

That's why he explained to her in such detail now, but now seeing her ignorant appearance, the shopkeeper couldn't help hesitating, could it be that the longevity lock is not hers?

Also, which rich and powerful lady would come out to learn medical skills to treat patients?

Most of the daily entry and exit is walking up and down.

Although he had doubts, the shopkeeper still said: "There are two characters engraved in this lock."

He saw it when he looked carefully just now, and now he turned the lock over and showed Man Bao the inside, "Here, there are two small characters engraved on the inside of the lock, one is 'Zhou' and the other is 'Xia'. ', is the surname of the young lady's parents?"

Man Bao was stunned. She squinted her eyes and looked in through the small hole. She almost looked cross-eyed but didn't see any words inside.

Seeing Man Bao rubbing his eyes, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "The characters are a little small, and the hole is also a little small. It's normal that the lady can't see it."

Man Bao blinked his sore eyes, gave up, accepted the thank you from Changshousuo and the shopkeeper, then took his leave and left.

When Man Bao returned home, Mr. Zhuang was waiting for her in the study, "Why are you coming back so late today?"

"I talked to someone on the way." Man Bao had something on his mind, but he didn't tell his husband. Instead, he sat on a chair obediently and took out his textbook.

Mr. Zhuang glanced at her and opened the textbook, "Then let's go to class."

Man Bao left school after two classes in the afternoon. She put away the notes she had made, stood up and saluted her husband respectfully.

Mr. Zhuang sat on the chair and looked at her, nodded and said, "Go."

Man Bao then retreated out of the study, she stood in front of the gate and thought for a while, then said to Daji who was waiting for her outside the door: "I won't go to the library today, let Shanbao go by himself."

After finishing speaking, Man Bao turned and went back to the room, and took out the longevity lock.

She looked at the light again, and found that she still couldn't see anything, but through the small hole, she could indeed see that something was engraved inside, but it was only a hazy area, and nothing could be seen.

Man Bao turned her sore neck, sighed, and looked down at the longevity lock in her hand in a daze. After a while, she still couldn't help asking Keke for help, "Keke, can you let me see the words inside? "

Keke: "Yes, the host can buy a magnifying glass in the mall, or you can pay the credits for me to scan it for the host to watch."

"Then you scan it."

This is the first time Manbao placed an order with Keke without asking for points.

Keke silently scanned for her and projected the image in front of her, and Man Bao saw the structure inside the Longevity Lock.

Only then did I discover that not only the words "Zhou" and "Xia" were engraved symmetrically on the upper and lower locks, but also two symmetrical longevity chrysanthemums. If it weren't for Keke, no one would have seen this thing engraved inside. .

Man Bao rubbed the longevity lock blankly, and put it back on her neck after a long time. She suddenly felt a little sour in her heart. Before she could do anything, tears rushed out.

Man Bao sat by the window and wiped her tears silently. She didn't know why she was sad, but she was very sad.

I had some guesses in my heart. The magistrate Tang might be wrong in other words, but he was right in one sentence. Her family didn't have so much money to give her such a long-life lock.

Even if their family was not short of money before the fourth brother gambled, they would definitely not be able to afford such a long-lived lock.

Bai Shan couldn't wait for Man Bao in the academy, so he ran out of the gate to see that Daji was waiting outside, he ran over with a book basket and asked, "Where is Man Bao?"

Daji said: "Miss Man's complexion is a bit unwell, so she didn't come, let the young master read the book by himself."

Bai Shan put the book basket on the car and jumped onto the driveway: "No, let's go home, is she sick?"

Daji said: "It doesn't look like it, but it seems to be in a bad mood."

Bai Shan looked around and asked, "Where's Bai Er?"

"Master Tang said that he and his classmates went to Qixia Mountain to play, and he would go back by himself later."

Bai Shandao: "In three more months, Yuefu School will have an exam, is he still in the mood to play?"

"Do you want the little one to go find him and come back?"

"Forget it," Bai Shan was in a hurry to go home, and decided to let him go today, saying, "Let's go home first."

Bai Shan jumped out of the carriage, first ran to the study to greet Mr. Zhuang, and then ran to look for Man Bao. He ran past the window in a flash, then backed away, and got close to the window that had been opened a crack at some time side.

He opened the window, poked his head in, and saw Man Bao lowering his head and wiping tears.

Bai Shan was taken aback for a moment, then asked after a long pause, "Man Bao, what's wrong with you?"

Man Bao was concentrating on crying, when he was startled when he heard his voice suddenly, he raised his head immediately.

Seeing that her eyes were red and swollen, and even her nose was swollen, Bai Shan ran to the front without knocking, just opened the door and ran in.

He asked angrily, "Who bullied you?"

Man Bao wiped away the tears from his face with the back of his hand, and said hoarsely, "No one bullies me."

"Then why are you crying?" Bai Shan bent down to look at her face, tapped a little teardrop on his face and said, "Look, your eyes are swollen. Could it be that the patient you treated is not good? Or is it arranged by the husband?" You can't do your homework at all?"

Man Bao said: "I won't cry because of my homework."

She turned around, turned her back to Bai Shan, and saw her window was opened wide, facing the yard, Daji was standing in the yard looking here curiously.

She stood up and slammed the window shut.
