Chapter 530 Four Concubines and Sixteen Sons Pen Holder

Although Li Mo didn't ask much about the company's operation, Chen Feng would send him emails on time every week, mainly for work reports.So although I seldom go to the company, I can grasp the general situation of the company.

Because the Meihao Charity Fund is special and has a large amount of funds, once the money out is not properly reviewed, it is easy for people to catch loopholes.Therefore, the moral requirements for each employee are very high. You don't need to be so brilliant, but you must be deeply aware of your job position.

Zhou Wangbing will definitely not be able to stay any longer. As for whether he needs to compensate for the later repair costs of the car, that is a matter of the company's system.

Putting all those bad things aside, Li Mo asked about that uncle.

"He and my dad are cousins. You met him when I was young. He is a few months older than my dad. When my uncle was young, he worked in a flower company and was very good at cultivating flowers and green plants. Later, he talked to the boss's daughter. In love, it’s just that the boss dislikes his background and doesn’t agree with the two of them being together.”

"and after?"

"My dad said that later the girl was forced to marry a well-matched person, and my uncle was disheartened and returned to his hometown to work in agriculture. When my parents got married, my grandpa had no money at home, so it was the uncle who took him away. The money I earned was secretly supported by my dad, so the relationship between the two of them is very good. The house of the uncle’s house is also very old, and my dad has always wanted to rebuild it for him, but he is unwilling. I have lived alone for so many years. I also introduced it to him, but he refused. He said that he has already loved, and he has no regrets in this life."

Li Mo was a little moved.

Uncle Yingying's name is Liu Yingying. The house I live in is an eight-room tile-roofed house with a separate kitchen.At this time, there were no neighbors chatting outside the house. I saw Qi Xinguang leading a young woman back out of the house. One of the women, about 70 years old, stood up and smiled and said, "Yingying is here, is that his girlfriend?"

"Uncle, do you carelessly see who I am?"

Liu Hongqing pulled Xiaomo behind Liu Yingying and pointed at my face.

"I seem to have seen it, but I don't seem to have any impression."

"Uncle, I am Qi Xin."

"Qi Xin? His father's apprentice?" Qi Xin Guang looked at Qi Xin casually again, and said in a vague way, "You remember that when I came here when I was a child, I was white and clean, you guys, young commander, How did you become like that at that time?"

"Uncle, you went on a trip to Africa, and you got tan like that when you came back. The sun here is quite poisonous, and it will turn white after a few months." Xiao Mo hurriedly explained.

"Oh, he is really a big guy. It's almost ten years since I met him. Now he is shorter than you, and his body is also strong. Come on, sit down and make him a cup of tea."

"I think it's because when I went to Chuanqing, my girlfriend grew more and more beautiful. Afterwards, you have watched the TV series you participated in. Although you are the leading actor, you think you are more beautiful than the leading actor."

"It's a good thing that Lao Liu has taken a beautiful wife. Yingying and the others don't stand still, and drink some tea with you. His father brought it to his uncle from the devil city, and you also come to drink some inferior famous tea. "

The neighbors are all elderly people, and Liu Yingying squeezed out some tea leaves, which are the top-quality Taiping Houkui.Making tea in the countryside has so little care, and the old-fashioned teapot is ready before pouring a cup of boiling water.

"It's better to drink tea outside the house than in a small city. His master brought you a set of tea sets afterward. You have to go through such a cumbersome procedure to drink tea. If you find it too annoying, you will keep it at home. Used outside."

"People outside the city pay attention to drinking tea because they are too free. It's like being in the countryside. When you go out and carry farm tools, you have to go to the field to work. If you are busy with work, come here. If you don't have time to relax, come to a tea ceremony. Do as the Romans do, drink whatever you want, As long as you feel good."

Xiao Mo said with a smile.

"What he said is just right for you. He is like the eldest son of the old Zhou family. He has only retired from the city for a few years, and when he comes back, he looks arrogant. Xiao Mo, don't learn from me before. Be a man and do things. It’s better to be down-to-earth.”

"Worry, uncle, you understand very well."

"Uncle, you brought Da Mo here because you want to see this porcelain in his collection, take it out slowly and have a look."

"That's right, they sit first, you go outside the bedroom and take it out." Qi Xinguang retreated into the bedroom, holding a rectangular box made of wood after a while, then placed it under the table and unlocked it, and lay down in the wooden box. With a round porcelain.

"Uncle, come and get it."

Xiao Mo immediately stood up when he saw the porcelain, with a gleam in his eyes.I carefully took out the porcelain and placed it under the table.

Judging from its shape, the porcelain is a pen holder, with a height of about 15 cm, a diameter of about 18 cm, and a bottom diameter of about 17 cm.Porcelain, cylindrical.Open mouth, straight walls, small flat bottom.White glaze is applied inside, and seven colors are painted on the inner wall.The edge of the mouth is painted with miscellaneous treasures and brocade flowers, and the theme of the abdomen is painted with seven concubines and eighteen sons playing in the courtyard.

The pattern unfolds along the body of the tube, and there are seven men and eighteen children with different expressions. The men have plump faces and low buns, long skirts that drag the floor, eyebrows like crescent moons, and noble temperament. He plucked the strings intently, resting his chin with one hand, and unfolding the scroll with the other to observe the painting. The shape is lifelike and ready to come out.

Some of the eighteen sons listen to the piano and watch paintings, some play chess, some play, some are playing hide-and-seek, some are arranging books, and some are whispering in their ears. Childlike, vivid and vivid.

The cylinder is covered with paintings, except for a group of figures, there are no trees, flowers, stone tables, or a few stools to decorate.

Xiaomo looked at the bottom of the foot in the upper circle again, and the non-standard blue and white block letters read "Made in the Kangxi Year of Xiaoqing".

Outside Qi Xinguang's home, there is actually a genuine pen holder of the Seven Concubines and Eighteen Sons of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing that Xiao Mo had been silent, Liu Hongqing asked after a long time, "Da Mo, how about that porcelain?"

Xiaomo put the pen holder under the table, looked up at Liu Yingying and asked with a smile: "Uncle, that porcelain is called a pen holder when it is classified by function. When they watch historical dramas, they are rarely placed under the desk in the study of high-ranking officials and dignitaries." With something similar, it’s for writing brushes.”

"So it's called a pen holder." Liu Yingying nodded slightly, and then laughed at herself, "You treasured it for seventy years, and you didn't know it was a pen holder until now."

"Uncle, is that pen holder a family heirloom or did you find it from inside?"

Liu Yingying drank a cup of tea, with a hint of reminiscence on her face, she sighed after a while and said: "It was given to you by your first love. Time flies so slowly, it has been 78 years in a flash. Time is forgiving, Just wait and you'll get old."

"Uncle, does he mean that the porcelain was given to him by this boyfriend back then?"

"Yes, back then you said that the porcelain was very valuable and meaningless, and you were asked to keep it safe, but you had to throw it away at any time. Before you got married, you returned there with the porcelain. Little Mo, is that porcelain really expensive?"

Although Wuliren was present, Xiao Mo still nodded.

"Back then you said that the pattern underneath was meaningless, can he tell you what it means?"

Xiao Mo said hurriedly after being silent: "The pattern is called the pattern of seven concubines and eighteen sons, which is relatively common in official kiln porcelain during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Yingying muttered a few words, with old tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Uncle, it's been such a young age, and he has kept his promise to you, and kept it well. But judging from the implication, you should have had a deep affection for him back then."

Qi Xinguang comforted me, you feel very sad.Uncle is kind and affectionate, so the young man still thinks about my first love in his heart.

"Hongqing, I want to open up a bit. They chat first. You guys are going back to make lunch. We don't have time to drink tea together in the morning."

Several neighbors came to visit one after another, and Liu Yingying wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath and said, "You came back to the devil secretly to see you, and you lived a very happy life. Back then, your father found you a People from the right family, but the two families who came here have suffered a loss in business. You have gone back eight times when you come here, but you have never seen you again. I heard that this husband often beats you, so you divorced when you came here After you found your colleagues, they sloppily inquired about your whereabouts, and only knew that you went to Kyoto with your parents and took two children with you."

Xiao Mo and Liu Hongqing looked at each other, thinking that so few things have happened after seventy years.

"Uncle, did he go to Kyoto to look for you again?"

"Yes, so what can I do if I find you. You are poor, and you have a happy life. Is there any benefit to finding you besides adding to your troubles?" Liu Yingying drank her cup in one breath. Drinking tea, exhaled and continued, "You are so young in the past, you are all old. I only hope that you can live well and your children will be filial to you. By the way, how much is that pen holder worth?"

"It's an authentic Qing Kangxi seven-color pen holder, and the market price difference is less than one million."

"Much less?"

Qi Xinguang was slightly dumbfounded, and lowered his voice a little.That pen holder is actually worth less than a million dollars. No wonder you said that was very expensive back then.

"Uncle, he has to take good care of that porcelain." Xiao Mo had to remind me.

"Forget it, Yingying, uncle, you are alone, and you have no heirs before you die, so let him take that pen container away. Keeping it by his side is more dangerous than keeping it outside the house."

"How can this work, that is just one of his thoughts."

"I'm old, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Mo asked at this time: "Little uncle, he still wants to find you again, to see how you are doing now? If he wants to, you have nothing to do with the capital here, so there should be no chance to find you or Said to find your relatives."

Are you looking for it?It has been 78 years, what can I say before I find it?

"Da Mo is right. I have a small network in Kyoto. As long as your family stays in Kyoto, Da Mo can find us. As long as you are well, it doesn't matter what happens. He can secretly see you again. To be able to worry completely is to get rid of the knots in my youth."

Liu Hongqing's words hit my heart, Liu Yingying's expression changed slightly, and she muttered: "Can you still find you?"

"Why is it possible? Then you handed over the meaningless pen holder to him for safekeeping. If you have no chance to meet again, he will hand over that well-kept pen holder to you again. Do you think this is better than giving you There is no point in keeping it."

Xiao Mo also nodded and said: "Uncle, what Yingying said is unreasonable. If he wants, he can go to the capital with you that time. When he arrives in the capital, he doesn't have to worry about basic necessities. Your master doesn't have two vacant houses in the capital. He can live in it." Outside of this, there will be problems for a long time. You arrange someone to help him inquire, and when the time comes, the information that has nothing to do with this person, the more detailed he can say, the better."

"You, this is too troublesome. Chuanqing has been helping you in those years, paying living expenses every month. In fact, you spend a lot by yourself. I have heard it many times. You have all the money Outside the bank, when Yingying gets married in the future, you will give it to Yingying as a red envelope."

"Uncle, just spend the money your father gave him. If he had secretly given your father his savings back then, there would definitely be you and Da Mo now. If you found this , you mean that if...you provided him with old age before now, he would have 1 peace of mind."

"Thank you Yingying, my uncle is really grateful to him and his parents." Liu Yingying held back her tears, nodded and said, "Xiaomo, if you go to the capital with them, everything will be troublesome for them."

"Uncle, we are all one family, but we have to talk about two different languages."

"That's right, he used to treat you like his own boy."

"Okay, okay." Liu Yingying seemed to have removed a rock under her body, and she was less nervous at once, and the eight of them sat up and chatted for a while.

"Da Mo, your dad is calling."

"He took it."

Before connecting, Liu Hongqing said a few words, his face was full of willingness.

"what happened?"

"Your father asked you to go back to have dinner and call your uncle to come with you."

"Yingying, did he quarrel with his aunt again?" Liu Yingying asked with tears and laughter, "His aunt has a big heart, the more you quarrel, the less tempered you will be."

"It's a quarrel, you can hide it, you and Da Mo will go back to the capital in the morning, so I don't bother to quarrel with you. Uncle, you go to eat first, and then he comes back to bring some changing clothes, and you will give them to him when you get to the capital." They bought a few less sets and changed them."

"Okay, let's take the porcelain bottle and put it in the car first. When you were in Kyoto before, you followed their arrangements."

I also know how Comrade Liu and his family communicated before the two of us left. Anyway, when Xiao Mo was eating, did the aunt of the Liu family pick on me again.

"Master and wife, you and Yingying have discussed it, and you will return to Kyoto in the morning. The museums here need to open as soon as possible, and the time is still very tight for such a small number of antiques to be sorted out one by one, and then put back in the museum. When school starts a year ago, Jing Primary School and Qing Primary School may reschedule your teaching work. Anyway, if there are few things to do, come here. He will contact you in time if he has nothing to do. If you have anything to answer, contact Yingying."

"No matter how busy you are, you must pay attention to your health and eat on time."

"You'll keep that in mind."

After lunch, Xiaomo left 7 yuan for the elder lying under the bed after leaving, although it may be of little use to you.

The two cars left the village one after the other, and Xiaomo would come back before.As for this Zhou Wangbing who was still trying to beg for mercy, Xiao Mo even looked at me straight in the face.

The two cars rested eight times on the way, and it was already night before dawn when they arrived in Kyoto.Xiaomo first settled Liu Yingying outside a hotel opposite the big district, and planned to send me to live outside the house in Yanjiao on the seventh day.
