Gu Qingyao was wearing baggy clothes and her face was covered, only revealing her eyes. She looked like a young lady.
That was why she called him Grandpa.
The old man's eyes were glued to the roasted chicken. His family had always been well-off and he had eaten countless good food. However, he had not eaten anything good since then.
This roasted chicken smelled so good!
The old man looked up at Gu Qingyao. "Daughter! I … Hehe … I want it. I'll give you something in exchange. "
As he spoke, he took out a pair of gold bracelets inlaid with jade. The style of the bracelets was very ancient and the pattern was very beautiful. It was a pair of very exquisite dragon and phoenix bracelets.
It was a very classic style, but the craftsmanship was exquisite, especially the two rubies inlaid on the bracelets. It was especially beautiful.
The old man looked at Gu Qingyao with anticipation. "How is it, daughter? Pretty, right?"
The old man looked at the bracelets in his hands and was a little reluctant to part with them. "This is the thing that I got engaged to my fiancée. It's an old craftsmanship in Shanghai. It would be a pity if the rubies were taken away. So, although the gold bank bought it, I didn't sell it. Moreover, I didn't dare to sell it."
He was a person who had been punished through labor. Although gold was a hard currency now, he did not dare to take it out. Because once he took it out, people would continue to raid his house. His life might even be in danger.
Shanghai?
Gu Qingyao's eyes moved. "Grandpa, you're from Shanghai?"
Her grandmother was also from Shanghai, so she might even know this grandpa!
The Wen family was a top-notch family and super rich. If this old man was also from the top society, he might know her grandmother.
The old man said, "Yes! But they've been gone for a long time. "
As she was from the same place as her grandmother, Gu Qingyao felt a lot closer. She was also more generous to the old man. Not only did she give him half of the roasted chicken, she also gave him a fish.
"Grandpa, this is fresh. I've cleaned it. Go back and stew some soup to nourish your body."
When the old man saw this, his eyes widened. Did he meet a fairy today?
This was too good!
The old man was touched. "My daughter, my surname is Guo. You can call me Grandpa Guo. I won't be unreasonable and refuse. Grandpa, I really need these things. Take this, thank you! "
The old lady gave the things to Gu Qingyao and hurried home with them.
These were all good stuff!
His wife hadn't eaten for a long time.
Gu Qingyao changed her clothes and went to another black market. In total, she exchanged 40 jin of rice, 50 jin of flour, 70 jin of cornflour, 30 jin of dried sweet potatoes, and 60 jin of sweet potato flour.
There were also about fifty kilograms of various coarse grains, five kilograms of cured meat, two dried fish, a dozen or so sausages, ten apples, and ten kilograms of soybean oil.
These supplies were exchanged for six hundred yuan, ten catties of grain tickets, thirty feet of cloth tickets, and a bicycle ticket. Then, there were the old items.
A full set of jade jewelry, a full set of diamond jewelry, and a set of pure gold head ornaments.
Although this set of jade wasn't as valuable as the one Grandpa Guo gave her, it wasn't much worse. This time, Gu Qingyao gained a lot.
