The Bowl of Seven Emotions

The necklace was gone, and there were only three people in the family, either the daughter-in-law or the son. The old lady sat for a while, then found her son's number from the phone and called.

The colorful ringtones on the phone rang repeatedly three times before finally being picked up.

Ning Kaize's voice was somewhat impatient, "Mom, what's the matter with you?"

"Aze, have you seen mom's necklace?"

"What necklace, how do I know? Ask Ella, maybe she took it away." After a short pause, Ning Kaize replied.

"It won't be Xiao Ai, she will tell me if she takes it." The old lady was anxious and didn't notice the slightest strangeness in her son's words.

"Do you think I took it? What did I do with that broken necklace! Maybe she took it secretly and didn't tell you."

"Impossible, Xiao Ai would never do this." The old lady categorically cut the line.

"Whether she is yours or I'm yours, how can I say something, you are impossible, and you can't, she will do everything in her turn." Ning Kaize's tone was mixed with a little. Angry.

"Xiao Ai never told a lie..."

"Okay, don't say it." Ning Kaize interrupted the old lady abruptly, "What else is there for you, I'll hang up.

The old lady noticed her son's impatience, and the corners of her mouth drooped, "Can't I call you if I'm fine? How many days have you not been home!"

"Don't you know I'm busy, did Ella tell you something?" Ning Kaize sat behind the desk, his face full of indecision.

"What does Xiao Ai say? Your wife is busy all day long, and you still find her troubles every day. Doesn't she just want to open an exhibition? How wonderful, what is there to be angry about."

"Mom, don't worry if you don't understand it. She's just nonsense. It's not that easy to open an exhibition now." Ning Kaize raised his voice slightly, "You are not in good health. She doesn't take care of you at home, but goes every day. The studio runs, and who is a daughter-in-law like her."

The mother and son almost turned their faces because of Ella. Thinking of his wife who suddenly changed her mind and insisted on holding a jewelry exhibition, Ning Kaize became more and more bored in her heart, crawling her hair with her fingers, and said to her mother who was still chatting on the phone: "Okay, mom, I have something to go ahead and hang up first, leave me alone with Ella."

With that, the phone was hung up before the old lady could speak again.

The old lady fed too loudly for several times, but only a beep on the other end of the phone.

She stood up angrily, wandered around the room several times, and went out with the key.

Since her son is so busy and has no time to connect to her phone, she just went to look for him!

The son’s company is only ten minutes away from home. The old lady has been there several times with his daughter-in-law. She still remembers the road, and simply walked slowly along the road.

The road was full of cars, and the old lady had to walk next to the car. The eyes of the people with the sun shining above their heads couldn't open. The old lady stopped and took a breath. The son's company was in front of her.

She wiped her sweat and looked around. No car passed by. She walked on the zebra crossing and was about to cross the road. Suddenly a red car was pulled out of the side road and drove towards her.

The car wiped past her, she was taken aback and sat down on the ground.

The car stopped a few tens of meters away, and walked out of the car. A tall woman with long curly hair, sunglasses, and bright red lips was walking towards the old lady while talking on the phone. come.

The old lady looked at the woman who was getting closer, and suddenly her pupils shrank.

The person was wearing a white gauze and a nine-point hakama of the same color. On her chest, a red pendant drew an arc as she walked.

The pendant looked ordinary, made of thick brown rope. The only thing that stood out was the flat agate pendant the size of a ping-pong ball in the center.

The red agate seems to be a bit more gorgeous than the ones seen on the market. What is even more peculiar is the pattern of a phoenix spreading its wings faintly visible in the center of the agate.

When the light passes through, the pattern becomes clearer.

The old lady will never admit her mistake, that piece of agate is the heirloom she lost—the heart-returning stone.

The woman looked at the old lady still sitting on the ground with a silly look, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes, and she was so lucky today that she actually met the one who touched the porcelain. As he walked, he said to the person on the other end of the phone: "My dear, I will be there soon. I have some accident. You will wait for me to find you."

The person on the other end of the phone didn't know what was said. The woman smiled, her fingers curled up the necklace on her chest unconsciously, "Of course I like the necklace you gave me. I will wear it today."

The woman didn’t mean to avoid the old lady at all. She didn’t lower her voice. Instead, she didn’t know what she had heard. She raised her brows and said loudly: "I tell you, the necklace is on me now, it’s mine, whether it’s your mother or you. Wife, don't even want to take this thing."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be subdued, and the woman's expression softened. She snorted, "Okay, of course I know that you are good to me. I will pass in a while."

After the woman hung up the phone, she took out her purse from her bag, took out a stack of red tickets from it, and said to the old lady condescendingly: "Okay, don't pretend to be, let's get the money and go quickly."

After a long while, seeing the old lady not accepting the money, he suddenly lost his patience, "What do you mean, do you want to rely on me?"

The old lady stood up on the ground with one hand for a long time. Without seeing the money in her hand, she pointed to the necklace on her chest and asked, "Why is this necklace on you?"

"What necklace?" Seeing more and more people watching, the woman rolled her eyes and said uncomfortably: "Of course it was my boyfriend. Hey, what do you want to do, robbery!"

Seeing that the old lady pulled her necklace without saying a word, the woman swiftly hid and pushed the person out.

The old lady was pushed aside by her, and she was stunned, holding the car parked aside to stand still.

The woman yelled at the people around her: "You all have seen it, she is robbing me of things, I tell you, this is just a mess."

Seeing that the people around had already started taking pictures, the woman snorted and stopped giving money. She turned around and walked in the car, and soon drove her car away.

It has been a while since the woman left, and there were still people taking pictures around the old lady. Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, they gradually lost interest and dispersed.

The old lady looked at the direction where the car was disappearing, her lips trembled, and she didn't say a word for a long time.
