Chapter 143 Rare Mutton Fat Jade
Chapter 143 Rare Mutton Fat Jade
Lu You took another step back, expressionless, and walked past him.
"Hey, don't go, beautiful lady."
Seeing the person in front of her walk further and further away, Xing Shu followed behind with a leisurely expression.
Just as his well-defined fingers were about to touch the woman's shoulder.
But she seemed to have anticipated it, and moved her foot to the side first, controlling the distance perfectly.
Xing Shu withdrew her hand, which had missed its target. Her beautiful eyes deepened, and a few unknown lights flashed within them.
When I looked up again, the woman in red was nowhere to be seen on the bustling street.
Hmm, this is interesting.
Xing Shu licked his lips with a wicked grin, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.
Just as he was about to leave, he turned around as if he had sensed something.
He happened to meet the gaze of someone upstairs at Zuiyue Tower, a gaze that was both hidden and intensely possessive.
Xing Shu's lips curled into a wicked smile, her eyes filled with a hint of provocation.
A handsome young man stood at the window, his slender fingers pulling the curtain closed.
Her long eyelashes fluttered down like butterfly wings, leaving a small, beautiful shadow.
He exuded a chilling aura, clearly having witnessed the entire scene just now.

By the time they returned to their room, it was already late afternoon.
(Note: In ancient times, the hour of You (酉) was equivalent to 17-19 PM in modern times.)
Lu You sat on a wooden stool and took out the unblessed raw stones she had bought from the stall and the tools she needed from the basket.
Her fair fingertips had just grasped the carving knife, ready to begin.
【Host, do you want a one-time skill that can perfectly cut through raw gemstones without causing the slightest damage?】
Lu You paused, then parted her red lips slightly, "How much is it worth?"
Not much, just ten points is enough, hehe.
666 scratched the back of its head with its little white paws.
Lu You: ...
"Exchange it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu You could clearly see red lines and shadowy areas appearing in front of her.
These are the best points to make the incision.
With fingers gripping the knife, he cleanly and swiftly sliced along the red line. A piece of jade, gleaming with a warm, white light, quickly came into view.
【Holy crap!】
Upon seeing the piece of jade that Lu Youqie had unearthed, 666 couldn't help but swear.
[It's actually rare mutton-fat jade!!!]
Those who love jade know that mutton fat jade has been highly valued since ancient times. It is the finest and most precious type of jade.
It not only embodies the virtues of a gentleman, such as "benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, courage, and purity," but also symbolizes worldly emotions such as "beauty, nobility, auspiciousness, gentleness, and tranquility."
Its toughness and wear resistance are among the best in the jade family, and it has few impurities, so it can be described as "flawless".
Mutton fat jade is crystal clear, white and flawless. Its characteristics include being exceptionally white, bright, warm, and fine-grained.
The finest white jade is flawless, the best being "white as solid fat," and its hardness is second only to jadeite.
[Host, how did you discover this piece of jade?!]
Lu You: ...
"I just picked it randomly because it looked nice to me."
666:! ! !
How many piles of dog poop must one have stepped in in their past life to have such good luck in finding such a top-quality piece of jade?!
As time passed, Lu You finally finished carving the jade in her hands after spending an entire night.
The jade is of just the right size and is exquisitely carved. Two lines of poetry are carved on the front of the jade, and the word 'LY' is in the center of the back.
Upon closer inspection, it is truly eye-catching.
Lu You lowered her eyes, placed the carved jade into a delicate little box, and put it into the drawer.
Her beautiful fingers picked up the knife again, as if she felt no pain at all.
Without batting an eye, he made several cuts on his fair and delicate hand, and bright red blood beads gushed out one after another.
[Host... what's wrong...?]
Second update complete~ Xiaxia is online, acting cute and begging for votes!
Note: Ancient jade carving tools included iron discs (thunderbolts), toothless saws, circular saws, drills, awls, and polishing with fine wood chips, gourd skin, or cowhide dipped in pearl mortar.
However, Xiaxia knows that you cuties don't like reading these, so she'll shorten it. Just so you cuties know.
If there are any parts that are not well written, please pretend you didn't see them. All tools were replaced with a small knife. ( ̄y▽ ̄)~* *covers mouth and giggles*
——
Also, this section introducing jade is definitely not just filler; I'll say it three times because it's important.
This chapter is about 1,100 words long, and the section introducing jade is about 100 words long, which just makes up the difference.
So Xiaxia definitely didn't pad the word count! (/≧▽≦)/~┴┴
