Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

The old man took a look and quickly put on his reading glasses. After taking the raw stone, he looked at it carefully. He sometimes looked at it closely, and sometimes looked at it from a distance with his eyes squinted.

After looking back and forth for a long time, the old man slowly said, "This piece of material is a positive green, but the part that has been cut off is a little small, so it's hard to tell what the water quality is now. But from the current performance, it seems to have water head, you should be able to make a lot of money!"

Tian Mi said proudly: "I told you I didn't lie to you."

Although it was Jiang Yanqiu who chose it for her, it was also because she had a keen eye and discovered Jiang Yanqiu's uniqueness that she let her choose it for her.

The old man instructed Nan Da's aunt, "Lao Da's wife, call Lao Da and ask him to find a reliable master to come to our house tomorrow with professional tools to cut rough stones for the children."

Aunt Nan nodded happily and replied, "Okay, Dad, don't worry, I'll call them right away."

At this time, Nan Wanwu, who had been silent all the time, came back to her senses from the car accident.

He hurriedly called out to Aunt Nan, "Sister-in-law, let Brother find out what happened with the car accident today. What exactly happened?"

She was still very nervous and panicked, so she wanted to know more about the situation to feel at ease.

When Aunt Nan heard this, she quickly responded, "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it. Whether it was an accident or man-made, I have to find out."

After Aunt Nan finished her call, she came over cheerfully and said, "Okay, you little ones have been tired all day, go wash up and get ready for dinner!"

Gu Qingqing raised the corners of her mouth and said sweetly, "Thank you, auntie. I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"

Nan Dashu's mother said cheerfully, "You are such a sweet girl."

In the evening, Gu Qingqing and the others did not return to the hotel but stayed at Nan's house to rest. They would come over tomorrow and it would be troublesome to run around.

Uncle Nan came back very late and told me the details of the car accident as soon as he entered the house.

After some investigation, the identity of the driver was quickly determined to be an employee of a nearby supply and marketing cooperative.

The driver was only 35 years old when he was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer. He had five children at home, the oldest of whom was only 13 years old.

Previously, he needed money for medical treatment, so he asked his company to borrow money, but the company not only refused to lend him the money, but also asked him to apply for early retirement due to illness to avoid delaying his work.

This made him very angry. He had a big argument with his unit and refused to retire due to illness.

Faced with this deadlock, the supply and marketing cooperative had no choice but to come up with two solutions.

Either let his family take over the job and pass on his seniority to them, or allow him to sell his job and seniority for money to pay for her medical treatment.

Generally, it is not possible to transfer seniority when transferring a job, but he is in the late stage of cancer and his seniority is useless, so it can be regarded as compensation from the company.

The driver said he would think about it, but who would have known that tragedy would happen just two days later.

The driver had bought the car not long ago, so normally the probability of brake failure is very small.

Based on these clues, people can't help but wonder whether this accident was caused by the driver's dissatisfaction with society and deliberate revenge against society?

But it is not ruled out that he deliberately went after Jiang Yanqiu and the others.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yanqiu and Chu Tingnan were both shocked. Coupled with the previous letter, they both believed that it was directed at them.

When only Jiang Yanqiu and Chu Tingnan were left around, Jiang Yanqiu couldn't help but say, "After this incident, I've decided to do more good deeds in the future!"

Hearing her say this, Chu Tingnan beside her came over curiously: "Why do you suddenly have this idea? Second brother, haven't you always been doing good deeds?"

Jiang Yanqiu said in a seemingly nonchalant but actually serious tone, "A while ago, I had a super magical dream! I dreamed of a turtle telling me that as long as I do more good deeds, my luck will definitely get better and better in the future. I feel like today was like God's warning to me, so I escaped a disaster!"

Chu Tingnan was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst out laughing. He responded while laughing, "Sure, I'll go buy you a bunch of turtles later and let them raise them. I'll let them repay you for raising me. It's more practical than doing good deeds. Maybe it can even bring us more luck!"

But this time, Jiang Yanqiu did not chat nonsense with Chu Tingnan as usual.

Instead, he put away his smile and said seriously, "I'm not kidding you. I'm serious. I've made up my mind. When I return, I'm going to build schools in some impoverished mountainous areas and help them find better teachers."

Chu Tingnan stared at Jiang Yanqiu's eyes, which were flashing with determination. He was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement and said, "Since you have decided to do this, then go for it boldly! As long as it is something you like, I will fully support you no matter what. If there is anything you need my help with, just let me know."

It is still possible for them to do these good things.

At dawn the next day, the invited master came to cut the raw stones for everyone!

As soon as he heard that the raw stone bought by Tian Mi had turned out to be Yang Green, Uncle Nan got up early and didn't even bother to go to work, just to watch the fun.

As long as it is Yang Green, the price will generally not be cheap.

He had bought some stones before, but they were not very good. Some were not ordinary jade, and some were pure stones, which were not interesting at all.

That's why he didn't go with them yesterday. Unexpectedly, these people were quite lucky and actually bought some good materials.

The master also brought two apprentices with him, and the first one to open was Tian Mi's plot.

The two apprentices were cutting the big piece for Gu Qingqing, while the master Qi Tianmi was opening the piece. With the second cut, everyone was even more nervous.

Qi Bing knew a little bit about the business, so he helped his master and his movements were even more agile than those of the two apprentices.

Jiang Yanqiu looked at his serious appearance and said with a smile, "I think Qi Bing shouldn't study politics. He should study antiques instead."

Chu Tingnan said from the side: "His ancestors made a living from this. He has been influenced by it since he was a child. He doesn't need to learn it, otherwise he would really be lucky.

He also knows a bit about jade. When I played with him before, his favorite thing was stones, hoping to find jade. So when Tian Mi took a fancy to that pure stone yesterday, I wanted to laugh the whole time. She had shown it to Qi Bing.

Jiang Yanqiu also stood up and said, "She's really lucky. I guess Qi Bing was just giving her a perfunctory look and didn't even look closely."

Chu Tingnan nodded and said with a smile: "When Tian Mi realizes what's going on, she will definitely go after Qi Bing to settle the score."

At this moment, Uncle Nan suddenly exclaimed: "It's gone up, it's all Zhengyang Green!"

Even Gu Qingqing couldn't help but gasp. This material was actually better than the one she bought yesterday. Although it had cotton wool in it, it was all green.

The piece of material weighing thirty or forty kilograms at the back even produced sixteen kilograms of high-quality ice jadeite, all of which was a bright green. Tian Mi was so happy that her eyes narrowed into slits.

The second piece was the big green stone that Gu Qingqing had taken a fancy to, and this time it produced glass-type floating flowers.

Although it is all made of glass, the floating flowers have no sense of layering.

Her raw stone was not small, weighing at least five or six hundred kilograms. It produced fifty or sixty kilograms of glass floating flowers, the texture of which was good or bad, but overall it was very good.

The next thing to cut is Jiang Yanqiu's big stone. This stone is too big, so it requires two people to work at the same time.

A group of people stood around looking at it for a long time, and for a moment they didn't know where to start. They all felt that it was just an ordinary big rock.

Finally, Qi Bing looked at Jiang Yanqiu and said tentatively, "How about you give me some pointers on where to start?"

He was not sure, so as to avoid any problems, he asked Jiang Yanqiu to point out what he had bought.

Uncle Nan looked at Jiang Yanqiu. She also recognized this stone. They had gone to see it many times before, but the jade appraisers were not sure and some even said that it was not jadeite.

This stone has been rubbed until it is shiny and glossy, and now it has been bought by my own child. I don’t know what to say.

Jiang Yanqiu didn't know how to open it. Coincidentally, the sun came out and she could see the aperture again.

She stared at the center of the aperture and cut slightly to the side.

After the two apprentices started working, the master polished the smaller raw stones, and many of them were revealed to contain jadeite, indicating that this batch of raw stones was good.

Everyone was curious about Jiang Yanqiu's big stone, but they were afraid that Jiang Yanqiu would be embarrassed because there was no jade in it, so they didn't dare to speak or gather around to look at it.

When the cut reached the middle, powder flew out, and the master excitedly shouted: "It's grown, and it's green."

Everyone gathered around again when they heard this. Uncle Nan looked at the powder carefully and said, "It's probably Imperial Green. Xiao Jiang, do you know how to identify jade?"

Jiang Yanqiu made up a story: "Uncle, I don't know how to do this. I just saw that this stone was big and I brought it all the way from abroad, so I thought it must have some material."

Everyone was skeptical, thinking that it was normal for her not to understand as she was just a girl in her early twenties, and they all thought she was lucky.

When it was cut open, it turned out to be glass-type imperial green. There was a strip of imperial green in the middle that was twenty centimeters long and two or three centimeters wide, with flowers floating around it.

This jade is right in the center, and the skin is too thick, so it is difficult to see.

When the second cut was made, the length did not change, but it became wider. Everyone gasped, thinking that this was too good of luck.

Gu Qingqing secretly thanked her lucky stars that she didn't say anything yesterday, otherwise if Jiang Yanqiu had listened to her, she might have lost tens of millions.

If that's the case, it's okay if she doesn't know. If she knew, she would definitely feel guilty.

Seeing such a good harvest, Jiang Yanqiu took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and quickly asked Chu Tingnan to quietly take the stone that emitted purple light and the last green stone they bought back into the house.

She felt that the two pieces were no worse than this one, and it would be too conspicuous to cut them in public.

During this period, Jiang Yanqiu discovered a problem. After the raw stone was cut, she could no longer see the halo.
