Chapter 2 Posing for the Score
When Wei Xiaoqiao rushed to Jincheng Municipal Hospital in a hurry, Lao Wei had just been pushed out of the emergency room, and he was waiting to hand over the money and immediately undergo surgery.
When the matter came to the end, Wei Xiaoqiao didn't care about comforting Wei's mother, who was crying and wiping her tears, and was busy going through the procedures, as soon as the money was paid, she received a call from the clerk Lao Wu, and her Lao Wei had already entered the operating room.
When Wei Xiaoqiao came over, there were many employees from Yupinxuan outside the operating room, as well as a few old neighbors of Porcelain Street.
On the bench in the corner, Wei's mother wiped her tears with her hands and was crying: "Old Wei has nothing else to do all his life, he just wants to keep this shop, he always said that the family business passed down from his ancestors must be guarded with his life, who would have thought ...... I'm going to lose my life this time!"
"Uncle Wu, what's wrong?" Wei Xiaoqiao walked at the door of the operating room and asked Lao Wu, who was standing next to him.
"The people who engaged in the demolition came over again, saying that they were doing ideological work for Wei Ye, and to put it bluntly, they were here to make trouble, and the three bald men with wolf hearts and dogs took the lead in shouting, saying that if we don't move, they will smash Yu Pinxuan, Wei Ye couldn't be excited, and he was so angry that he burst his blood vessels!"
"Call your sister and let her come back, I haven't been home all these years, what's the matter!" Seeing Wei Xiaoqiao appear, Wei's mother ran over crying, hugged her daughter, and her voice was full of complaints.
"Let's call now, it will only scare my sister, and I'll talk about it when my dad comes out!" Wei Xiaoqiao said perfunctorily, rubbing Wei's mother's back with his hand.
Wei's mother sobbed and said, "Xiao Qiao, Yupinxuan is really going to be demolished, and your father can't keep it!"
"Aunt Wei, don't worry, except for a handful of shallow eyelids in our porcelain street, no one wants to demolish it, and the elders have left such a good land, and they can't be ruined by outsiders!" a neighbor persuaded him.
Wei Xiaoqiao bit his lower lip, the bulliest businessmen opened their mouths and wanted to eat the porcelain street, but on this street, as long as Lao Wei refused to nod, no one in the neighborhood would agree to tear it down, and the profiteers were probably angry and played "capture the thief and capture the king first", in order to deal with Lao Wei, what kind of lack of morality to cut off children and grandchildren have been used!
Lao Wei was pushed out of the operating room, it was already three hours later, and it was not easy to persuade Wei's mother to leave, Wei Xiaoqiao stayed outside the ICU alone, through the monitoring window, looking at Lao Wei who was full of tubes inside, and it was not until this time that Wei Xiaoqiao's eyes finally turned red.
A nurse saw Wei Xiaoqiao standing there for a long time, and came up to persuade: "Miss, we are monitoring the patient's condition, and you don't need to stay here all the time, if there is anything, we will call immediately." ”
"Thanks, I'll sit down a little longer. Wei Xiaoqiao smiled at the others, but he was still standing in place, thinking for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "My dad...... Can you wake up?"
"It's pretty stable for now, let's take a look after tonight!" the nurse replied, seeing that Wei Xiaoqiao was reluctant to leave, she didn't say anything more, and went about her own business.
When Ma Heng came over, Wei Xiaoqiao was sitting on a chair outside the ICU in a daze.
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" Ma Heng stood at the monitoring window first, looked in, and then sat next to Wei Xiaoqiao.
Wei Xiaoqiao didn't have much strength to fight with Ma Heng, so he only shook his head.
"How's the situation?" Ma Heng asked again.
After a while, Wei Xiaoqiao sighed: "I had a stroke, the blood spot has stopped, and I have to observe it for a few days, even the doctor may not be able to say it...... Can you wake up, the most optimistic, hemiplegia has to fall. ”
"Our dad will be fine, don't worry!" Ma Heng reached out and patted Wei Xiaoqiao on the shoulder.
"I'm begging you, okay?" Wei Xiaoqiao blocked Ma Heng with his hand, and wanted to be angry with him for no reason: "You have nothing to do with our family for a long time, don't be 'our father and our mother' all day long, the surname Wei can't afford to raise your son-in-law who didn't enter the door!"
Ma Heng opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, looked at Wei Xiaoqiao's expression, swallowed the words again, and only laughed.
"Miss, don't forget to pay the fee before 9 o'clock tomorrow. Just now, the nurse came over again and handed the bill to Wei Xiaoqiao.
took the bill and looked at it, Wei Xiaoqiao smiled bitterly in her heart, in less than half a day, the small 200,000 yuan in her private house was gone, and this time she had to take out more than 10,000 yuan, and there would be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow......
Ma Heng directly pulled the bill out of Wei Xiaoqiao's hand: "I'll pay all this money, you don't have to worry!"
"What's the fun!" Xiao Qiao snatched back the bill, but thinking that people were also kind, he couldn't help but give a little face, so he said: "I took your mind, but this matter is not your responsibility!"
"Is the money enough, just let me borrow you!" Ma Heng shouted: "I can take you as my own sister, what can I do to help you?"
Wei Xiaoqiao suddenly reacted and turned his head to look at Ma Heng: "Didn't you find me a job repairing flower pots?"
Ma Heng got up, glanced at Lao Wei in the ICU again, and said, "Today, you're just afraid that you won't have the heart, I'll push you!"
"What are you pushing," Wei Xiaoqiao interrupted Ma Heng and stuffed the bill into his bag: "Let's go now!"
In a club in the western suburbs of Jincheng, Wei Xiaoqiao walked in behind Ma Heng, observing the luxurious decoration around him that showed off his taste, and he could know that he was either rich or expensive when he came here, so he ...... Today's financier should not be ordinary rich.
"I'll pay the price back. Wei Xiaoqiao said to Ma Heng, who was walking in front of her.
"Want to be ruthless?" Ma Heng turned around and squeezed his eyes at Wei Xiaoqiao.
"I don't kill people, I only eat by my ability," Wei Xiaoqiao replied calmly: "Don't say that I don't give your friends face this time, I have to earn back my father's medical expenses." ”
A waiter came over, heard them report the box number, and led the two upstairs.
In the box, the gold owner had not yet arrived, Ma Heng and Wei Xiaoqiao sat on the sofa and chatted.
"Don't blame me for talking too much, my dad can't figure it out, it's the peak of housing prices, and the porcelain street is a treasure land with the wind and water, as long as the house is demolished, the street is full of millions, tens of millions of millionaires, go back and open a store in another place, as long as your dad is in charge, Yupinxuan is still the Yupinxuan." ”
"My dad ......" Wei Xiaoqiao held his cheeks in his hand and sighed: "The centuries-old house has to collapse several times a year, living in it is cold in winter and hot in summer, there is a musty smell everywhere, and the wall skin is foaming...... I can't understand why my parents don't know how to take care of themselves and change to a comfortable place!"
Ma Heng laughed, and then asked, "You don't like the old house so much, and now you have the opportunity to demolish it, isn't it just what you want?"
Wei Xiaoqiao's face was straight, and he said: "I don't like it anymore, it's also my family, and the things left by my grandparents are not allowed to be touched by others!"
Ma Heng made a gesture and hugged his fists: "Yes, I respect you as a female man who stands up to the sky!"
Wei Xiaoqiao looked at Ma Heng and wanted to laugh, but in the end there was something in his heart, so he only shook his head and muttered: "When you said this, I remembered it, turned around and freed my hands, and went to settle accounts with the turtle grandsons who killed my father!"
"It's bullish to hear this," Ma Heng gave Wei Xiaoqiao a thumbs up, and then smiled: "The developer is also in a hurry, the plot of Liumaqiao, Jincheng who is engaged in real estate knows, it looks like a piece of fat, but it is a toothy one, just sandwiched in the right, through the east and west porcelain street, hundreds of years of old streets, the top has been reluctant to move, but if you don't move the porcelain street, the Liuma Bridge is divided into two halves, and it can't operate." ”
Wei Xiaoqiao sneered: "So they play hooligans?"
Ma Heng thought for a while and said: "I heard the news that the developer of the Liuma Bridge is almost unable to hold on, and is already looking for a home, I heard that there are many people who want to gnaw hard bones, Yupinxuan...... There's going to be trouble ahead. ”
Wei Xiaoqiao was a little anxious in his heart, and he couldn't sit still, so he got up and walked back and forth in the private room.
At this moment, the door was opened from the outside, and Ma Heng jumped up from the sofa.
"Mr. Shen, I guess you should be here at this time!" Ma Heng smiled and greeted the person who was walking in.
Wei Xiaoqiao didn't follow, but only looked at the other party.
At this time, the person holding hands with Ma Heng was a man who looked about thirty years old, his skin was not bad, and his eyes were a little hanging, which was commonly known as 'peach blossom eyes', but the expression on his face was rigid, and he knew at a glance that he was not very affinity.
That Mr. Shen glanced at Wei Xiaoqiao lightly and asked Ma Heng, "Has the expert Mr. Ma invited for me here?"
"Here, let me introduce, this is Wei Xiaoqiao, the heir of the Wei family of Jincheng Yupinxuan, and my sister, not that I boast of Haikou, there is no porcelain that my Xiaoqiao can't repair. Ma Heng hurriedly introduced.
"She ......" Mr. Shen looked at Wei Xiaoqiao again, and asked coldly: "Are you sure Mr. Ma is joking?"
Wei Xiaoqiao raised her eyebrows, the guests who asked her to repair porcelain for the first time in the past also felt that Wei Xiaoqiao was young and worried that her craftsmanship was not good, but he said it so bluntly, this Mr. Shen was the first one.
When everyone was seated, Ma Heng began to advertise for Wei Xiaoqiao, Mr. Shen was a little bit unlistening, leaning on the sofa at this time, with paper and pen that he didn't know where to touch, he was lowering his head, not knowing what he was painting.
"It's a little hard to serve, let's take our time!" Ma Heng took advantage of the time to stop and take a sip of tea, leaned into Wei Xiaoqiao's ear, and lowered his voice to admonish.
Wei Xiaoqiao didn't say anything, his eyes fell on a middle-aged man who was coming in from outside and a brocade box that he was obviously holding carefully in his arms.
When the brocade box was sent to Wei Xiaoqiao, the middle-aged man looked at her suspiciously, but Wei Xiaoqiao looked indifferent, opened the lid of the box, supported the bottom with one hand and held the neck with the other, and took out the utensils inside.
What Wei Xiaoqiao is holding is a Jun kiln azure glazed bell type flower pot in the early Ming Dynasty, she once saw it at an auction, it was from a distance at the time, this time it was close, and she couldn't help but appreciate it.
The flower pot is 22 centimeters high, the azure-colored opalescent glaze is applied, the edge of the mouth is iron-brown thin glaze, the inner and outer walls can clearly see the earthworm mud marks, there are five round holes at the bottom of the pot, and the dark brown tire is exposed in the circle foot, plus the "two" word stamp, such as the old goods of the fake package.
"Miss, this thing is very valuable, wear gloves, right?" The middle-aged man looked at Wei Xiaoqiao for a long time on the side, and couldn't help but remind him.
"How can you touch it without using your hands?" Wei Xiaoqiao replied lightly, and then looked at the utensils back and forth, and then put it back in the brocade box, and said, "The flower pot is good, but it's a pity that there are fried lines." ”
"This pot is a minor problem, and Xiao Qiao can definitely handle it. Ma Heng said busily.
"Just take a look, just say you can repair?" The Mr. Shen was still working hard, and asked without raising his head.
The other party's score was big enough, Wei Xiaoqiao was in a bad mood today, but this time he had a little temper, deliberately didn't speak, and only nodded.
"Price?" Mr. Shen looked at the piece of paper in his hand from a distance, and asked casually.
If it weren't for the fact that it was to earn Lao Wei's hospitalization fee, Wei Xiaoqiao would not be too lazy to take care of this kind of master who pretended to be B, since people were rude, Wei Xiaoqiao simply stretched out his hand and compared a "1", but he just didn't say anything.
"10,000!" Ma Heng immediately helped.
Wei Xiaoqiao glanced at Ma Heng and said loudly: "100,000, no counteroffer!"
"So expensive?" Before Mr. Shen could say anything, the middle-aged man was taken aback first.
"This piece of porcelain was auctioned for almost 40 million in 08, and you also know that a few chicken claw patterns made it plummet, and I can guarantee that it will be repaired so that people can't see the flaws, so my asking price is not high. Wei Xiaoqiao said very practically.
"Where did you get so confident?" Mr. Shen finally raised his eyes and looked at Wei Xiaoqiao.
Wei Xiaoqiao didn't intend to be modest: "There is no diamond, no porcelain work, our Wei family specializes in this kind of market repair, focusing on repairing the old as the old, and you get what you pay for." ”
"Just you?" Mr. Shen took a pen and quickly scribbled a few strokes on the paper, his tone full of disdain.
Wei Xiaoqiao's face sank more and more, and this person dragged a little too much.
