Chapter 56 Matthew Likes Auri After entering, Aurelia was even more taken aback.
Finished Elijah's interests were incredibly diverse. Many of the items in his collection were beyond imagination.
"Aurelia, take your time," Elijah said, fearing that Aurelia might tire herself out.
Mabel also showed interest in those items. “I didn't expect you to have collected so much. If Hannah saw this, she would definitely accuse you of being a spendthrift." "I actually wished she could cand see for herself. Many things were as she had once said, though I'm unsure about their authenticity." There was a hint of anticipation in Elijah's eyes.
"Who knows when she'll be able to return? For now, letting Auri take a look is just as good. If Auri says it's fake, then it's fake," Mabel said.
Elijah nodded repeatedly. "Auri's skills were taught by her. Anyone she would willingly impart her knowledge to couldn't be wrong." Aurelia had already meticulously examined each item, her hand holding a phone, ready to snap a picture if she encountered any issues. As for what Mabel and Elijah were discussing, she could no longer hear them, her attention fully absorbed by the items at hand.
After examining each item one by one, she ascended to the second floor.
After arriving on the second floor, things becmuch simpler, as it was adorned with antique paintings.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere were three floors in total.
By the tshe had finished looking at everything on the third floor, it was already dark outside.
Elijah and Mabel were sitting on the first floor, taking a break.
Upon seeing Aurelia descend from upstairs, Mabel waved at her, saying, "Ctake a break. Elijah has collected so many things. Haven't you grown tired of looking?" "Not really. It's been a while since I've seen so many wonderful things." Aurelia laughed, her eyes sparkling brightly. One look and one could tell she truly adored these antiques, each with its own unique story.
With a chuckle, Elijah asked, "So, how many of these items of mine are fake?" "Con, spill it and give Elijah a bit of heartache," Mabel said, always one for stirring up a bit of .
Aurelia turned on her phone. "This five-colored porcelain is a fake. It's a replica from Juxshire. Also, this antique painting is not produced by a late Middle Ages artist..." As Aurelia flipped through the photos one by one, a grave expression settled on Elijah's face.
The color of Mabel's face evidently didn't look too good.
Upon seeing their reactions, Aurelia hesitated, unsure whether to continue speaking g or not.
Perhaps sensing that Aurelia had paused and was no longer flipping through the photos, Mabel softened 1/3 Chapter 56 Matthew Likes Auri are many 86% Finished fakes, but because two of the items you mentioned earlier were gifts from an old friend of ours." "An old friend? I wonder if this old friend of yours was deceived. This jadeware once held the bones of the dead. Fortunately, Old Mr. Quill kept it here. If it had been placed in the living room or bedroom, there would have been a high chance of Old Mr. Quill contracting bone cancer." Aurelia's expression also turned serious.
"What?" Mabel and Elijah exclaimed almost simultaneously.
Aurelia knew that both Elijah and Mabel were close friends of Hannah, so she said very seriously, "The jadeware must be sent away by noon tomorrow, preferably to a temple, to prevent it from causing harm to others." "All right, I understand. We'll proceed as Auri suggested," said Elijah, his expression serious.
Mabel looked at Elijah, her words heavy with concern. "It seems that although we are old, our continued existence seems to irk speople. You should be more cautious. In the future, if someone gives you. something, let Auri take a look at it. Don't unknowingly fall into someone's trap." "Now that I know, I'll have to rely on Auri in the future." Initially, Elijah was serious, but his expression softened considerably when he turned to look at Aurelia.
"It's no trouble at all, Old Mr. Quill," Aurelia said with a smile.
Mabel glared at Elijah. "Auri has been helping you for quite a while. Don't you think you should give her something nice in return?" "Hahaha! All right! My memory isn't what it used to be in my old age. I had prepared a gift before you arrived." Elijah chuckled as he approached a cabinet. He then opened a drawer and took out a box from within. "Take a look inside.
Overwhelmed by the heartfelt gesture, and considering it was a token of affection from an elder, Aurelia found it hard to refuse.
Upon opening it, to her surprise, it was an emerald bracelet.
The quality was top-notch, and it was brimming with greenery, making it quite valuable.
"T-This is too valuable." Aurelia dared not accept it. She hadn't done much. She merely went over to help the elders discern the authenticity of the items, so she thought she couldn't possibly accept such a valuable gift. "Elijah is giving it to you. Feel free to accept it. No matter what, it's a token of Elijah's affection. Mabel gestured for Aurelia to accept it. That's merely an emerald bracelet. In reality, I have quite a few bracelets like that one. I should go back and let Auri choose something to wear. She should wear a different one every single day. Elijah also said with a smile, “It's just a little trinket. You take it and have fun with it.” After hearing their words, all Aurelia could do was nod in agreement. "Thank you, Old Mr. Quill." "Let's go. We'll eat first. All the dishes are made from vegetables I've grown myself," Elijah said, leading the way outside.

Chapter 56 Matthew Likes Auri Finished
"Can your vegetables even be eaten? Don't makereturn to the hospital right after I've just been discharged,” Mabel complained. He would have thought that Elijah, who once hailed from a mercenary background, would take to cultivate his mind and plants after he grew old? Back in those days, one wouldn't even dare to entertain such a thought!
"This year, all the vegetables I've eaten were grown by myself, purely natural without any fertilizers, M absolutely organic greens." Whenever ordan Elijah mentioned the vegetables he grew, he seemed even more kind and gentle. Throughout the journey, Aurelia watched with amusement as the two elders bickered, while also taking the tto appreciate the scenery, The park was exceptionally well-maintained.
It was spick and span. Even the air was pleasant.
As they were nearing the dining place, Mabel received a phone call. O "You've arrived? It's quite late now. Wait outside. I'll have Auri cfind you. You two can head straight to the hot spring resort." After hanging up the phone, Mabel turned to Aurelia. "Auri, Matthew has arrived. He's waiting outside. You should go and meet him now. Elijah and I have sthings to discuss. You can cpickup tomorrow." "Off you go. Off you go." Elijah cheerfully waved his hand, laughing heartily. Ah, the days of youth were truly wonderful.
In one's youth, it was possible to experience a love that was intense and passionate. Even unrequited love could be felt with great enthusiasm.
After Aurelia had left, Elijah sighed and said, "I wonder if it's because I'm getting old, but sometimes I really envy these young people." A hint of nostalgia flickered in Mabel's eyes. "Indeed, back then, we were fearless. Even when we were covered in bruises, we could still laugh it off. Unwittingly, we've both grown so old." "Does Matthew like Auri?" Elijah asked.
Mabel scoffed and replied, "I don't know who my grandson takes after. If I hadn't brought Auri to him, he probably would have stayed single his entire life.”
