Chapter Twenty-Eight: Correct the Three Views
"Hehe, I can't wait for you! I can't stop you this morning! Hurry up! Before your grandma comes back, I have something to ask you. The old man said as he bombarded Zhang He into the courtyard.
"Specially waiting for me, and asking me, my grandmother didn't come back. Don't... Could it be that my porcelain pieces are all real? I'm going to make a fortune, haha!" Zhang He immediately relaxed when he heard this, turned to an excited face, and asked the old man as he walked: "Did you see my few things in the morning? How is it? Are they all real?"
The old man replied with a smile: "Let's talk about it when we enter the house!" Then he stayed back in the house, let Zhang He sit down at the round table at the door, and the old man sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette for himself, and nodded at his wife, signaling his wife to speak.
Grandma Tian smiled and sat opposite Zhang He, poured water for him, and at the same time turned her head to glance at the objects on the desk as if very casually, and asked, "I don't have time to ask in detail this morning, how did you get these porcelains?" Learn from grandma. ”
Zhang He glanced at the writing desk and replied, "That porcelain bowl was bought when I was in the market?"
Grandma Tian couldn't help but subconsciously turn her head to look at Grandpa Tian when she heard this, and then asked him again, "Who went with you to buy it?"
"My mother and I, as well as two cousins from my hometown and Wu Xin from my aunt's family. ”
Grandma Tian glanced at Grandpa Tian again and asked curiously, "Your grandfather didn't go?"
Zhang He replied dryly: "I didn't go." ”
Grandma Tian asked, "Didn't you say in the morning that you were in charge of the money your grandfather wanted?"
"Yes, but my grandfather wasn't there when I bought it. It was only after I came back from the market that I took care of my grandfather's money. Zhang He replied honestly.
Grandma Tian smiled and asked, "Then why did you buy it? For home use, do you think it looks good, or did your mother let you buy it?" Grandma Tian said as she glanced at Grandpa Tian again.
"I bought it from the coax. My mom stopped me for a long time. Zhang He said with a smile.
"Coaxing?" The two elders couldn't help but glance at each other again, and Grandpa Changtian asked, "Hehe, how do you make a coaxing method?" ”
Zhang He pointed to the porcelain bowl on the desk and replied: "That's right, this porcelain bowl was originally my cousin in my hometown, and before we returned to our hometown, we saw it when we were in the market." But her family may be too expensive, so she didn't buy it. When we went back this time, she led us to the stall, and I thought it was very good-looking, so I coaxed us to buy it, and bought two, one for her, and the other for me to bring back. ”
"I also bought two!" Grandpa Tian couldn't help but glance at his wife, then turned his head to look at the porcelain bowl on the desk, and asked, "How much did you buy this?"
Zhang He replied: "I guess we were hacked! Originally, the stall owner and my cousin had offered two yuan each. But by the time we went, it was five pieces. We cut the price for half a day before the stall owner agreed to sell it to us for four yuan each. ”
"What about the porcelain plate and the vase?" asked Grandpa Tian.
Without waiting for Zhang He to speak, Grandma Tian interjected: "Didn't the child say it in the morning? There is only one piece here that is bought, and the other of the two pieces is picked up and the other is Rao." ”
"Hehe, look at my memory!" Grandpa Tian smiled, and then asked, "Which one is picked up?"
"The porcelain vase was picked up, and the plate was the stall owner's favor, because he didn't want to ask us for money, so he gave us such one. Zhang He replied as he looked at the porcelain plate on the desk.
"Hehe! The New Year's money in advance! Co-authored, are all considered your money? Dare to love these four things, one is wanted, one is coaxed, one is forgiven, and one is picked up by you. Eh, where did you pick it up?"
Zhang He immediately blushed when he heard this, and hurriedly moved his gaze from Grandpa Tian's face to the writing desk, and replied: "It's under the offering table of my grandmother's house, and the adults said that it was broken, so I don't want it, I'll pick it up." ”
Grandma Tian glanced at Grandpa Tian meaningfully, and asked him, "The adults have said no, why do you pick it up?"
Looking at Grandma Tian's eyes, this porcelain vase is really from the kiln. ”
Zhang He, who immediately caught Grandma Tian's micro-expression, suddenly brightened his eyes, and immediately danced with his eyebrows: "Didn't you touch it with your hands in the morning? This porcelain vase is interesting, it looks broken, but you can't touch it." Don't you think it's weird?"
The two elders couldn't help but smile at each other when they heard this, and then Grandma Tian asked, "Did you buy that porcelain bowl because you thought it was beautiful?" How beautiful is that plate? It's not a shame! People don't want to find money to give you a plate casually, and you admit it?"
"The white plate is a little plain, but it's only a dollar. Cheap. Zhang He replied.
"Hehe, do you know how much the dishes and bowls are used at home?" said Grandma Tian with a smile.
"I don't know. Zhang He replied honestly that he really didn't know the current prices.
"Yes, this is a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers! You can buy it if you want, and it doesn't matter if it's expensive or cheap!" Grandpa Tian sighed with a smile at Grandma Tian.
Grandma Tian also smiled and continued to ask Zhang He, "After your grandfather knew the price, he didn't say anything about you?
"When it's all gone, the bazaar is gone, and it's useless to say I'm useless. My mother stopped me too, but I couldn't stop it!" Zhang He replied pretending to be proud.
"Hehe, you kid, you have such a big idea. Grandpa Tian said with a smile.
Grandma Tian glanced at Grandpa Tian with her eyes, and then asked, "Eh, let me ask you again, since you think you like all these things, don't you just keep them? Why do you have to get up early in the morning and skip school, and you have to bring us things here and let us discern them?" What are you trying to do?"
"Yo, this Grandma Tian is not ordinary, this little bit is peeled off. Zhang He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but he replied with a cute look on his face: "What if I have a good life to pick up the treasure, wouldn't it be both rich and beautiful." You can appreciate it and make a fortune at the same time. ”
"Rich and rich! Hehe, that's the word. Grandpa Tian said with a smile. Then he asked Zhang He: "What would happen if grandpa told you that these things of yours are not valuable, they are just good-looking?"
"No, it won't all be fakes, right?" Zhang He immediately looked into the eyes of the second elder when he heard this, and at the same time really pondered in his heart, and replied after a while: "If they are not valuable, then I will give them away! Or I'll sell them for the money and pay back to my grandfather. ”
When Grandma Tian heard this, she immediately asked: "Then if Grandma tells you that these few things of yours are treasures, and you can exchange any of them for our yard, what do you think?"
"Really, are they really all treasures?" Zhang He regained his excitement, and opened his mouth to reply without too much brain: "If they are all treasures, then I will keep the oil lamp, and I will sell the other three pieces to them, exchange money, buy a house and land, and let my grandparents and my mother live a good life." ”
"Good boy, your grandfather really didn't hurt you in vain, grandpa told you the truth, you..." Before Grandpa Tian finished speaking, Grandma Tian reached out to stop Grandpa Tian and interjected: "Why did you leave that oil lamp? Just because it's bronze?"
Zhang He replied without thinking about it: "I think it smells of fireworks in the world." ”
"The smell of fireworks in the world?" the second elder couldn't help but glance at each other and repeated.
"yes. How many people have spoken and written under it since ancient times!" Zhang He said happily as he looked at the oil lamp. Immediately, he also realized that he was not interested in all things in old age, but only liked things like a home ornament, an old clothes, and a black and white photo. Because he can "feel" the heartbeat of people at that time and smell the smell of "home".
And things like the so-called official kiln porcelain, celebrity calligraphy and painting, which are high but "cold", he has no patience and interest to understand their beauty. For him, these are just a tour guide words that can be used to show off his talents, but a bunch of three-dimensional renminbi that can condense wealth. And his likes and dislikes are very similar to men and women looking for love in their youth, like is like, even if he or she is full of shortcomings in his heart, he still likes it. And if he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it, even if he is flawless or has a lot of money, he can't force people who don't like him to tug at his heartstrings.
"What you say is quite meaningful. The two elders looked at the oil lamp again.
Then Grandma Tian asked again: "Then let me ask you again, if you sell those pieces of porcelain and make money and taste the sweetness, do you want to pick up these things in the future?"
Zhang He thought for a moment and replied, "To be honest." In fact, I originally said that I wanted to learn how to read things from you, but it was really to eat this bowl of rice when I grew up. But just now you said that these things are not valuable, and then you say that they are all valuable, but I think about it, and I think that even if they are very valuable, I will not do this in the future. I still want to be a teacher or a doctor, because a teacher can be upright and a doctor can save people's lives. And most importantly, I don't want to be a money skewer at all, what I hate the most is money skewers!"
Zhang He tilted his head unconsciously, pursed his mouth, and moved his eyes to the ceiling, as if a child was angry with someone. It doesn't matter what kind of reaction the two elders who listened to him are at the moment. Therefore, it was not until he finished his speech that he found that the second elder was staring at him intently with the same surprised expression, and no one spoke immediately. So, Zhang He called softly again: "Grandpa Tian, Grandma Tian." ”
Unexpectedly, his whisper actually "provoked" Grandpa Tian stood up from the sofa and sighed at his wife: "I'll just say that this kid is right." You've always said that we've heard it somewhere, and we know how much these things are worth. He also said that we are petty money fans. If we are lost, we will help the world, and if we are poor, we will be good to ourselves. When our hearts are right, our luck is right. This time, you're looking away, aren't you?"
Grandma Tian glared at Grandpa Tian coquettishly, smiled at Zhang He with a little embarrassment, and said, "Look at your grandpa, this is almost the room." When did I say that the child is a money fan? Don't talk nonsense! I just said, no matter where Bei Bei heard it, or if he was born obsessed with this, we all have to remind the child, don't put all your mind on this, if you really become a money fan, and one day you will be beaten again, won't this be a loser?"
"Yes, your grandmother is right. Grandpa Tian's expression was rich, and he blinked again.
"What do you mean by this, are all these things true?" Zhang He suddenly sniffed out the meaning of the second old man's words.
"Your kid is really lucky, this thing that is rare for people to be poor in their lives has been picked up and hit again by your kid. I'll tell you the truth, you things..."Grandma Tian was just halfway through her words, when she saw Grandma Zhang He suddenly stand at the door of the house, and said to the house: "Hey, I knew you had to come to your Grandpa Tian's house." ”
"Yo, please come in, come in. Seeing this, Grandma Tian immediately stood up and greeted.
Zhang He also hurriedly stood up, walked up to his grandmother and said with a smile: "Grandma, why did you come back? I have been waiting for you for a long time, and my stomach is hungry." Zhang He said that he did not forget to turn around and hand Grandpa Tian a very meaningful look to Grandpa Tian.
"Hey, don't you want to be lazy and take a two-stop train today? Who knows after waiting for so long. Grandma Zhang He stood in the door, and said with a smile to Grandpa Chongtian and Grandma Tian. Then he said again: "Okay, don't disturb your Grandpa Tian here, let's go home." ”
"It's okay, don't bother. Pour you a glass of water, and we'll talk about it later. Grandma Tian said as she took out a teacup from the tea tray.
"Sister, don't be busy, you can't work today. He still has to go to school this afternoon, and I have to go back to work here in the afternoon. Grandma Zhang He smiled.
"Well, then I won't keep you. We'll talk when we're free next time. Grandma Tian said.
"Okay, goodbye to grandparents. Grandma Zhang He commanded.
"I'm sorry for your trouble, I'm leaving. Zhang He took his grandmother's hand and smiled at the second elder. And the careless Grandma Zhang He was stunned to see the bronze lamp that was placed on the writing desk, and she had glanced at it at the dinner table two days ago.
