Chapter 18: Compromise Options
When Luo Xiangnan and her son arrived at Luo Xiangdong's house, they saw a small truck in the yard that they didn't know, and they knew that the person hadn't left yet, and it should be too late, so she directly opened the door with her son and went in.
At this time, a man with a small body and a slightly chubby round face was taking the imitation brother kiln ear bottle to take a closer look. He heard the sudden sound of footsteps and the door opening, looked at Luo Xiangnan, and then looked at Luo Xiangdong, meaning to ask him who is this? What's going on.
Luo Xiangdong couldn't take the bottle out of the man's hand and hide it at this time, so he had to watch his sister come in.
Her daughter really guessed correctly, Luo Xiangnan looked at the bottle in the man's hand, and many scenes of her and Luo Xiangdong getting along with her and Luo Xiangdong when her father was still alive came to her mind.
The old father left this thought, and if he did, almost all traces of her father's stay with them would be gone. She didn't say it before, because she thought that Luo Xiangdong sold the bottle for her own money, and she didn't expect him to raise money for her daughter.
"Xiangdong, this bottle can't be sold, that's all that my dad left you, if you sell it, you'll regret it. ”
"Sister, don't you care about it?" Although Luo Xiangdong doesn't like to go to his sister's house now, he has a good relationship before.
"Xiao Luo, what's the matter with you, let me come all the way and play tricks on me?" said the man with the bottle reproachfully.
"No, no, this bottle is mine, I will sell it when I say it. You see, my sister will persuade me. ”
The person who came to collect the bottle was called Lao Hou, who had been collecting antiques for many years, and he had already seen that this bottle was genuine just now, and Luo Xiangdong was right when he told him, it was indeed a piercing ear bottle imitating Song Ge kiln. And the bottle is intact, he is about to say a few words, eat it at a lower price, and another day, it will be a lot of money. As a result, Cheng Biting Jin came out in the middle of the road, wanting to stir up this matter. Of course, this is not to his liking.
"Oh, this is your sister, who should I be? Disrespectful and disrespectful, I'm sorry, Sister Xiao Luo. The man immediately smiled.
Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, after all, this person was asked by Luo Xiangdong to come, and now he says that if he doesn't sell it, he won't sell it, and the other party doesn't care about it, not to mention this low profile, Luo Xiangnan feels embarrassed.
"It's okay, it's okay, I should be embarrassed. Let you run for nothing, but this bottle is the only thought that my father left to my brother, it's not that I can't live, and I can't sell anything. If you're angry, I can apologize to you. ”
Lao Hou listened to this and thought to himself: "What is the use of not apologizing to him? It is useless at all, why does he want her to apologize? It is only serious to take this bottle."
It's the same thing when I think so, but it's not the same thing. As soon as Luo Xiangnan finished speaking, he said: "Oh, it turns out that this is the only thought that your father left for Xiao Luo? But let's look at this, you see because Xiao Luo told my relatives to sell this bottle, I received the letter and I hurried back from the field, took the train for two days and one night, that kind of tiredness, I was afraid to think about it, I had to break my legs, and after arriving here in Luochuan, I drove over non-stop. As a result, he said he wouldn't sell it, you see this, this ......."
He intended to arouse the guilt of Luo Xiangnan's sister and brother, so that he could find another opportunity to move her.
Luo Xiangnan couldn't compare to him as a social person, and the guilt gushed out. At this time, her son felt that his mother seemed to be a little unbearable, so he said: "Uncle, my sister said that she will not use the money you sell bottles to cure her legs, and she will not need to sell it." Uncle, don't sell it, or my sister will be angry. ”
Lao Hou: "...... why is there such a thing? Xiao Luo sold this antique to treat his sister's daughter's leg?
"Xiao Luo, what's wrong with your niece's leg? I know a lot of people, tell me about the situation, maybe I can help you find a few good doctors. Lao Hou said sincerely, this time he didn't mention the bottle.
Luo Xiangnan was a little moved, but in the end, the other party was a living person, and there must be vigilance and vigilance.
"Oh, is it?" Luo Xiangdong also listened to this, and his friend did tell him. This old marquis is very sociable.
Lao Hou put down the bottle, as if he didn't want to buy it or not, and said: "Of course, whether it's our Luochuan or the province, or even the capital, I know people." But who to find has to see what's wrong with your niece. ”
Luo Xiangnan was successfully diverted by him, after all, in her heart, the girl's legs are the most important. If this man really had this way, they would not be able to ask for it.
"Of course, but ...... Hey......" Lao Hou paused, then shook his head again, and said to Luo Xiangnan: "But if I tell the truth, you may think too much, thinking that I have to buy this bottle, so I fool you with words." If you want to think so, in fact, I am quite wronged, first of all, I didn't know that this bottle was left by your old man, and I knew that I wouldn't come. Originally, I had come up with two thousand dollars to buy this bottle. Didn't expect ......"
After he saw these words, Luo Xiangnan was really embarrassed again, and Luo Xiangdong was also silent. When the goal was achieved, he continued: "Forget it, let's talk about this leg, I won't tell you, the experts I know are all from the big cities of the province and the capital, but no matter who you go to, you can't play with any money, and you need a lot of money." Even if I try my best to intercede, at most I can only give you a discount, but not much. But your daughter is still young, if you don't treat it early, won't it be delayed?"
The man shook his head as he spoke, Ye Jingtao heard him say this, and felt that he couldn't stand it this time, and if he didn't tell his sister again, the bottle might be gone after a while.
The few adults present all turned their minds, and no one paid attention to Ye Jingtao's departure. And Lao Hou is still saying: "A few years ago, I went to a friend's house of mine for a walk, and then looked at her niece, who looked so beautiful, but it's a pity that she was in a wheelchair, and she ended up marrying very unsatisfactory." Not to mention work, just earn a few mouthfuls of food, hey, although your daughter is not as serious as hers, it is not easy, what can I do in the future?"
The man sighed, looked at the Luo family sisters and brothers who all had bad faces, and felt that the fire was almost up, and it was time to add another fire.
Then he said: "When I went to collect antiques last year, the family had a son who was almost thirty years old and unmarried. I heard that he doesn't want to get married, but he can't get high or low, and the family conditions are actually very good, and his personality is very good. It's a leg, one leg is lame..."
Luo Xiangnan: "......"
Luo Xiangdong: "......"
Lao Hou: ... Hehe, fight with me?
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lao Hou made another move: "Otherwise, it turns out that the biggest price in my heart is two thousand, and now thinking about the situation of your family, it is not easy." Why don't I let it go again, 2500 lines?"
Luo Xiangdong raised his eyes to look at him, didn't reply, lit a cigarette, and slowly exhaled the smoke ring.
Lao Hou took the initiative to say again: "Either I'll let you go again and give you 2800, if it doesn't work, forget it." As you know, that's almost enough to build a small house. ”
He waited for Luo Xiangdong to say that he was willing to sell, then give money, and then take the thing and leave.
However, he was doomed to backfire. Ye Xiaochi finally rubbed over with her brother's support, she saw the old Hou when she entered the door, and she didn't need to introduce him, she told him directly: "Luo Xiangdong is my uncle, this bottle really can't be sold." If you're not satisfied, I have a solution, maybe you'd like to try. ”
Lao Hou looked her up and down, what did she want to say?
