Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps
Chapter 399 Gourd is also a blessing
The fourth uncle hurriedly shouted, "Don't drag me, I'm sending you to the station, and I have to get off the bus."
"You're not allowed to go down there. If you break my things, you'll have to pay for it." The person holding Uncle Si's collar was a little old lady. Her hair was completely white and was combed into a small bun on the back of her head. She looked quite shriveled.
Although this old lady was not fat, she was full of energy. When she shouted, half of the people in the carriage heard her.
When the uncle and Bayi saw this scene, they felt deeply troubled. If the other party was a strong man, they would definitely step forward to help, but the other party was an old lady who could fall down in the wind, so the two of them did not dare to reach out.
Yuan Ni walked over and said, "Madam, please let go of your hand first. We won't get out of the car. Let's sit down and talk slowly."
Bayi is a down-to-earth person, "What if we don't get out of the car? This car is going to the west."
The more chaos there is, the more people are adding to the chaos. At this moment, the announcement in the carriage rang, "Passengers and friends, the train is about to leave. Please send relatives and friends off."
The eldest uncle reacted quickly and hurriedly said to Bayi, "Who asked you to follow me to the west? Let's help your fourth uncle settle things first and get the matter settled. Let's get off at the next stop."
Bayi suddenly realized, "Oh, I thought I was going to Dan County. I was shocked."
The uncle was too lazy to pay attention to this silly son. He looked at the little old lady and wanted to know what was going on. Where was the gourd? Why was it crushed?
Under Yuan Ni's persuasion, the old lady finally let go of her hand.
The fourth uncle breathed a sigh of relief and put down his luggage bag, "I was sent to the station. Now that the car is about to leave, I won't get out of the car. Tell me, what's going on?"
The old lady took out a cloth bag from her arms with a sad face, "There were too many people in the car, and I was afraid that people would squeeze me and damage my gourd, so I specially put the precious gourd in my arms.
I didn't expect you to be the one who squeezes the gourd. Now that it's better, the gourd must have been crushed by you. "
The fourth uncle was shocked, "I didn't squeeze, so why did I rub against your gourd?"
The sleeper car was not as crowded as the hard-seat car. The fourth uncle felt that he had not bumped into anyone else, but the old lady just grabbed him and refused to let him go. broken."
There were no eyes on the back of anyone's head. What was terrible was that there was someone between Bayi and his fourth uncle. With that person blocking them, he couldn't see clearly what was going on.
Yuanni was farther away.
As for the man following the fourth uncle, he was also busy putting his luggage and didn't look at anyone else at all.
Yuanni simulated the situation when the incident occurred. At that time, the passengers were getting on the bus and the original people were sitting in their respective seats.
The little old lady was originally sitting on the lower bunk, but she suddenly stood up, inserted herself between the two passengers, and then grabbed the fourth uncle's collar.
After Yuanni simulated the scene, the old lady was highly suspected of cheating. She knew that there were many people and it was chaotic, so why didn't she just sit on the berth? Want to stand up?
To put it bluntly, for someone so ignorant, even if they were bumped into each other, they would still deserve it.
The passengers all looked at the old lady, and many of them laughed, "Old lady, do you have a gourd? You haven't prepared the broken gourd pieces for a long time, and are you planning to blackmail me?"
The old lady put her hands on her hips and said, "I have a gourd. My gourd was originally in good condition. The people around me saw it and they can testify for me."
A person's head poked out from the middle bunk, "This grandma does have a gourd. It's the grasshopper gourd she used before. I just looked at it."
Someone on the upper bunk also spoke, "She does have a gourd, a very small one. She said it was used to hold grasshoppers.
I just held it in my hand and looked at it. It was very elegant. There were little figures engraved on it. The old lady said it was the fifth son who passed the exam.
Let me say one more thing. This old lady and I are not in the same group. We did not get on the bus at the same station. "
Now the passengers couldn't figure out who was who and everyone was talking about it. Some insisted on their own opinions and said that the old lady was blackmailing people.
He also tried to calm things down by saying that a gourd was not worth much, and it was not easy for the old man, so he asked his fourth uncle to pay for it.
Others don’t know, but Yuan Ni knows that the grasshopper gourd is not an ordinary gourd, it is a gourd used to hold grasshoppers.
Nowadays, everyone is busy and no one fights grasshoppers anymore.
The period when grasshopper fighting was popular was mainly in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially the Qing Dynasty. Several emperors liked fighting grasshoppers and loved houses and crows. As a result, the grasshopper gourds rose with the tide and their value doubled.
If it is a grasshopper gourd from that period, it is not only a piece of art, but also very valuable.
How can this thing just be compensated? You must first distinguish responsibilities.
So Yuanni asked the old lady, "Your gourd is put in this bag, right? Is it really broken?"
The old lady opened the bag and handed it to Yuan Ni, "It's broken. If you don't believe me, see for yourself."
Yuanni didn't answer, she pointed to the lower bunk, "We are short-sighted and have never seen any grasshopper gourds. What do you mean, this thing is quite precious? How about this? You put the pieces on the bed and let everyone eat them. have a look."
The passengers were so idle that they immediately started cheering and asked the old lady to pour out the pieces.
The old lady smiled disdainfully, "It's so heartbreaking. I didn't lie to you."
As she spoke, she poured the contents of her small cloth pocket onto the lower bunk. It turned out to be a gourd broken into two pieces. The gourd was broken from the depression in the middle and was now in two halves.
Yuan Ni frowned when she saw it, "Old lady, you said that the gourd was crushed into pieces. Then tell me, how hard do you have to squeeze the gourd like this?"
Passengers have also thought about it. When the gourd is placed in their arms, it is naturally placed vertically. How could it break in the middle?
Unless the gourd has been broken long ago.
But the passengers in the middle and upper berths also said that they had seen complete gourds, which was strange.
The old lady looked generous, "Anyway, this was the only one who was next to me just now, and he broke it. He has to compensate me."
At this moment, the flight attendant came over. He came to exchange tickets. Hearing that Yuanni and others were sent to the station and accidentally left in the car, the flight attendant urged them to replace their tickets.
Yuan Ni smiled, pointed at the old lady and said, "It's no problem to make up the tickets. This person has to make up the tickets for us. It was her fault that caused our unexpected delay."
The old lady naturally refused to admit it, "I haven't said that you are cheating on me, yet you still rely on me? Why do you say that I am cheating on you?"
"Of course I have evidence..."
