Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s
Chapter 463 It’s Really an Antique
Jiang Yanqiu explained: "He probably didn't learn much about mechanics during his college years. Learning mechanics is like learning computers; you have to start from scratch.
Usually, the only ones who can enter Lin Shaoyang’s room are you boys, Gu Qingshi, and the former Shen Shuyan.
The rest of us have no chance to interact with the Lin family, and Gu Qingshi and the others don’t seem like the kind of people who would tell the Lin family about this.
There is another possibility: the news came from Hua University, and the Lin family may want more than just books."
Chu Tingnan stood up and said, "What a coincidence! I happen to know someone in our school's admissions office. I can just give them a call and find out."
After saying that, he went to Nan Wanwu's room to make a phone call.
Tian Mi still said in disbelief: "That shouldn't be the case."
If this is true, Feng Yun wants to use the fruits of Lin Shaoyang's labor to exchange for a postgraduate place for Lin Yihang. This is too biased.
Qi Bing and Jiang Yanqiu didn't say anything. Everything was possible.
After a while, Chu Tingnan came back and said, "My wife was right. Lin Yihang originally applied for a graduate program in a mechanical engineering program, but was rejected during the interview. Later, I don't know what school it was, but he was admitted to the Computer Science Department."
Tian Mi sighed, "Isn't this also a concern for hurting Lin Shaoyang's feelings?"
Jiang Yanqiu sneered and said, "I'm afraid Lin Shaoyang has already lost all hope."
Tian Mi smiled and said, "How did you know this?"
I feel like Jiang Yanqiu is going to be right again.
Chu Tingnan explained to her, "He's not living in the villa anymore, he's renting a house. Their compound is more than half the distance from Agricultural University or Huazhong University of Science and Technology than ours. He'd rather live here than go back. Just think about it and you'll understand."
No one discussed this matter. They had no business intervening in Lin Shaoyang's affairs, so they were just chatting about gossip.
They chatted for a while, and Qi Bing came back from the toilet, holding a pot of green onions. He said happily, "My dear, it's been a long time since I last visited your house. Your family is getting more and more wealthy. You even use antique flower pots to grow green onions."
Chu Tingnan joked, "You know what my family's like. Forget antiques. Nothing in my house has anything to do with the word 'ancient'. You're even using antique flowerpots to grow onions. You're really making that up."
The valuable things in Chu Tingnan's house were long gone, and it was impossible for his family members not to know about antiques.
Qi Bing handed the onion to Chu Tingnan and said, "Come and take a look at this flowerpot of yours. Is it made of purple clay? If I'm not mistaken, it's a colorful clay flowerpot worth thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars."
"Several thousand dollars?" Chu Tingnan and Tian Mi immediately became excited when they heard it and gathered over.
Tian Mi recognized the flowerpot at once and said excitedly, "Isn't this Jiang Yanqiu's? It's an antique flowerpot? She threw it right in front of our door before. If I had known, I would have taken it for myself."
Jiang Yanqiu also leaned over to take a look, and it was indeed the flowerpot that she brought back from the north of the city.
It's just an ordinary rectangular flowerpot, mud-yellow in color and not shiny.
It was picked up right in front of the Jin family's house and used as her bus fare to the north of the city.
At that time, she was still muttering that there were many royal relatives in the north of the city in the past, and she might be able to pick up an antique, and she really came true.
Chu Tingnan shouted excitedly, "Wife, you brought antiques as a dowry when you got married, and you didn't even tell me. I used them to grow onions. If they were stolen, it would be a big loss."
Jiang Yanqiu was surprised and asked, "Is this really an antique?"
Qi Bing looked at their bewildered expressions and sighed, "If I had known earlier, I would have moved back home."
Jiang Yanqiu then said truthfully: "I went to the north of the city to inquire about the Jin family, and I stopped by the Jin family's door to pay for the fare."
Several people were speechless for a moment. This luck was unbeatable.
Especially Chu Tingnan. The Jin family is indeed the descendant of the royal family. Not only do they have so much gold but now they don’t even know about the antiques.
He has so many good things, but he still worries about money. What a miserable life he has. Now all the money goes into his wife's pocket.
Tian Mi immediately became interested and said, "Where is the address of the Jin family? Let's go to their house and take a look. Maybe we can find a bargain."
Jiang Yanqiu said helplessly: "Where can we find so many antiques? We might as well go to a scrap yard."
"I'll go take a look first. The staff at the scrap yard aren't stupid."
Tian Mi refused to listen to the advice and insisted on riding her bike for a ride before she felt at ease.
As for the result, you can imagine that they returned empty-handed.
As for the flowerpot that Jiang Yanqiu brought, it was picked up by Boss Jin by chance.
I originally planned to take it home to plant onions and vegetables in the spring, but it was taken away by Jiang Yanqiu before spring even came.
I have two naughty nephews at home, and they are at the age when they are very naughty.
The flowerpot was missing, and he thought his two nephews had taken it to play with, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
At night, Tian Mi suggested, "I see you're quite lucky. How about we go to the ghost market together tomorrow morning?"
Jiang Yanqiu waved her hands repeatedly: "Don't bother me anymore. The ghost market doesn't open until midnight, and we have to get up at two or three o'clock. Are you going to let me live?"
Tian Mi insisted and said coquettishly, "The ghost market is right over there by the clock tower, not far away. We don't need to go so early. We can just go for a walk and come back. Nothing will happen."
At four o'clock the next day, Chu Tingnan and Jiang Yanqiu were still dragged by Tian Mi and went to the ghost market with Qi Bing.
The ghost market used to be a small market selling antiques and calligraphy and paintings in the middle of the night.
But now they sell everything. They open at two or three in the morning and close before eight in the morning. Everyone calls it the black market.
However, people still habitually call the place where antiques and calligraphy are sold ghost markets.
It was Jiang Yanqiu’s first time to go to the black market. There were crowds of people inside and everyone had their faces covered tightly. It was hard to recognize them unless they were very familiar with them.
Tian Mi and Qi Bing probably don't come here often, and they both look a little nervous.
Along the way, there are people selling food, clothing, daily necessities and accommodation. The sellers put the things they want to sell in front of them, and if they like something, they will gesture and negotiate the price.
If the buyer and seller are of the same sex, they will even hold hands and bargain with their arms around each other. You would think they have a very good relationship.
This also has its advantages. At least, you don’t have to worry about someone raising the price.
Jiang Yanqiu felt that without any talent, she really couldn't survive in the black market.
Walk all the way to a small corner, and you will find a few scattered places selling antique calligraphy and paintings.
Jiang Yanqiu didn't understand, and Chu Tingnan didn't quite understand either, so the two of them just followed Tian Mi and Qi Bing and wandered around aimlessly.
Qi Bing and Tian Mi didn't dare to buy anything randomly. There were so many fakes these days that they couldn't be compared to the real ones. If they were sold on the black market, the price wouldn't be very low.
Later, Tian Mi bought a blue and white porcelain vase and Qi Bing bought a snuff bottle. When it was dawn, they went home.
After coming out of the black market, everyone was obviously relieved.
