Chapter 144

Evaluation stone.

Maybe she already heard about the matter from the small boy, so the woman with tears dancing in her eyes thanks You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao over and over again, her body swaying on the point of falling. Each sentence is followed by several coughs.

Even though she is unwilling to sell off the twelve heirloom jade carvings, it is for the sake of survival so the woman has no other option.

Although SiFang town is small, the competition is still very intense. She can go for a few days without eating or drinking but she can’t let her son suffer with her. That’s why she is willing to sell off the twelve jade carvings.

Who knew, because the price of the jade is too high, and because the people that usually come to SiFang town are not especially rich, so the jade carvings since they were brought out a month ago, not even one was sold. Now, when the mother and son are on the point of dying from illness and starvation, someone finally comes to buy their jade sculptures. Furthermore, it’s all twelve at once. The mother and son have never seen so much money in this lifetime. It would be a lie to say they are not moved. The woman has long ago started to drop tears like rain.

After an arduous wait for the woman to finish crying, You XiaoMo is finally able to ask about the Evaluation stone.

After hearing that the customers want to buy an evaluation stone, the woman wipes her tears with a handkerchief, raises her head, and asks in surprise, “Two young brothers want to buy an evaluation stone?”

Her gaze sweeps over You XiaoMo and Ling Xiao, finally falling on You XiaoMo, “You are a mage?”

You XiaoMo pouts. So it’s that obvious? Finerings out as Ling Xiao’s hand raps on his melon seed head again. With a threatening look and narrowed eyes, he says, “Say it again!”

You XiaoMo grins foolishly without saying anything. This uncle is at the height of happiness so I won’t argue with you!

After a while, he suddenly comes back to his senses, “Elder brother Ling, what did you just say? What do you mean ‘The evaluation stones here are rather low grade. It is unable to accurately determine the level of your soul.’ Didn’t we already determine it?”
