Chapter 222: Family Affection
Shen Moting seemed to be in a hurry to ask for this flower pot, and before Wei Xiaoqiao could send the things over, Feng Luoer had already picked it up.
In the next few days, the matter of subway planning became more and more popular, Lao Wei should have heard a little, and he could see that he was not in a good mood, Wei Xiaoqiao could only persuade carefully, and he was also considering, and if necessary, he would ask Shen Moting.
The day before Wei Xiaoqiao went abroad, Mr. Shen called her and said that he had a good thing and asked her to come to the house to have a look.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was still a vacancy, Wei Xiaoqiao immediately agreed to come to the door.
Mr. Shen lived in Wansheng Mansion, Wei Xiaoqiao was really familiar with it, and she didn't let Mr. Shen send a car to pick her up, she took a taxi herself.
When Wei Xiaoqiao arrived, but at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, she bought a bouquet of flowers outside the community by the way, and walked in unhurriedly.
The garden of the community is well designed, looking at the green trees, the purple and red, just talking about the environment, it can be called comfortable, Wei Xiaoqiao wanted to laugh while walking in, Shen Moting said "Feng Shui is not good", and took over Ma Heng's house, thinking about Ma Heng's thousands of choices, all his hard work was cheap Shen Moting.
Thinking of Shen Moting like this, Wei Xiaoqiao couldn't help but smile on his face, but he didn't realize it at all.
Not far away is the unit door of the building where Mr. Shen lives, Wei Xiaoqiao knows the access code, wants to go in, doesn't want a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat in front of him to block the way, and doesn't leave, Wei Xiaoqiao waited for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Madam, why don't I open the door?"
The man glanced back at Wei Xiaoqiao, immediately turned his head, and then gave way to the side.
Wei Xiaoqiao was in a hurry to get in, and didn't care that the other party pulled his hat down, and when he saw that someone was out of the way, he opened the door directly, and when he walked inside, Wei Xiaoqiao looked back and found that the woman had turned around and left.
I just felt that this one was a little weird, Wei Xiaoqiao couldn't help but look at it twice, although the hat covered most of her head, but the woman's figure was still quite slim, and she couldn't tell her age.
Mr. Shen was obviously waiting for Wei Xiaoqiao, and when he saw her being welcomed in by the maid, he stepped forward with a smile and said, "Go back to your house, I heard that you are on a business trip, we really haven't seen each other for a long time!"
"Mr. Shen, you are polite, I didn't do a good job, and I should have come to visit a long time ago. Wei Xiaoqiao said, couldn't help but look around, and said, "It seems to have been redecorated again." ”
"It was Moting who prepared it for me, although the house is not as big as before, but I am enjoying my old age now, as long as I am comfortable, those pomp and circumstance are useless. Mr. Shen said, leading Wei Xiaoqiao into a study room with a glass partition.
Wei Xiaoqiao nodded, noticed a photo of Nian Nian on a bookcase, picked it up and looked at it, and said with a smile: "I've grown taller again!"
"He boarded in the kindergarten, and he would come to stay with me for one day a week, which was really not enjoyable," Mr. Shen said this, motioned for Wei Xiaoqiao to sit behind the desk, and asked, "Listen to Xiao Feng, Mo Ting went back to the hospital, and you went to see him?"
Wei Xiaoqiao laughed twice, Feng Luoer's mouth was really fast enough.
Mr. Shen also sat down, looked at Wei Xiaoqiao and said: "You broke up with Moting, I was still in it at the time, I could only be in a hurry, Moting refused to tell me if he had something to say, or Niu Jiabao told me the ins and outs, I was later released from prison, met Mrs. Mo, and scolded her, I went back to your parents, I specially apologized to them, and also explained that since my wife passed away, we have gradually drifted apart from the Xu family, and now we are ...... Basically turned his face. ”
"It's in the past. Wei Xiaoqiao replied vaguely.
"How's it going, do you have a boyfriend?" asked Mr. Shen, whose eyes flashed.
"I'm looking for it. Wei Xiaoqiao could only respond like this.
"I didn't find it, that's great," Mr. Shen laughed: "It means that we still have a chance in Moting." ”
Wei Xiaoqiao: "......"
Mr. Shen has always been very good at pointing, then stood up, opened a safe behind the desk, took out a small brocade box from it, and put it in front of Wei Xiaoqiao: "I'm free now, learn to play with porcelain with Mr. Li, just bought a pair of grape cups a few days ago, I was going to ask your father to help break it, think about him as a big expert, I turned around and walked away, and I didn't invite Lao Wei to laugh, so you help me take a look first, if it's true, I'll take this thing and go to your house for a meal." ”
Wei Xiaoqiao laughed when he was talked, and opened the brocade box casually.
There was a pair of cups upside down in the brocade box, Wei Xiaoqiao looked at the model first, and it read "Ming Chenghua year." ”
When Wei Xiaoqiao was looking carefully, the sound of a mobile phone sounded on the desk.
"Look first!" Mr. Shen took his mobile phone, greeted Wei Xiaoqiao, and walked out of the study and went to the balcony at the end of the living room.
Wei Xiaoqiao held the cup in his hand and turned around, this is a pair of blue and white doucai grape cups, typical Chenghua doucai, the cup body is painted with grape branches, the underglaze blue and white color is soft, the glaze painting is vivid and realistic, the whole shape is small and exquisite, it can be called the top grade.
"I've cut off with you, I gave everything I should have given at the beginning, don't be insatiable!" On the balcony, Mr. Shen's voice suddenly became louder, and he was very unhappy when he heard it.
Through the glass wall, Wei Xiaoqiao looked up at the balcony and immediately withdrew his gaze.
"No need, I'm fine now, I don't need anyone to take care of me," Mr. Shen said again: "You are so self-conscious, when I was in trouble, you didn't show up, and now you are running over again, what son to tell me about family affection, no need, I have been disappointed, and I don't want to see any of you again in the second half of my life!"
At this point, Mr. Shen hung up the phone.
Wei Xiaojiao pretended not to hear, waited until Mr. Shen came over, and said to him: "Mr. Shen has good eyesight, this pair of blue and white doucai grape cups is very rare, you bought the right one!"
"I was a little hesitant to buy it at the time, but when you say that, I'm relieved!" Mr. Shen regained his smile, as if he hadn't been angry just now.
Wei Xiaoqiao said again: "My dad likes to chat with Mr. Shen very much, although he doesn't speak very well, but if he sees your good thing, he will definitely be happy!"
"You say, is it appropriate for me to visit in two days?" Mr. Shen smiled, and then added: "Bring Moting with you?"
"I'm welcome at any time, but I'm going abroad tomorrow. Wei Xiaoqiao's heart actually skipped a beat.
"Where are you leaving?" Mr. Shen immediately inquired. Let's pick up the book
"An auction house in France invited me to do an appraisal through the museum I signed a contract with, and I will leave tomorrow. Wei Xiaoqiao replied.
"When is the time to let Moting send you?" Mr. Shen suggested with a smile.
"No, my brother-in-law will give it to me. Wei Xiaoqiao hurriedly replied, carefully putting the cup in his hand back into the brocade box.
The doorbell rang, and a servant went over and opened it.
After a while, the maid came to the study and said to Mr. Shen, "Mr. Shen, a lady surnamed Zhou said she wanted to see you. ”
"Let her leave, I don't want to see her!" Mr. Shen's face immediately sank.
Wei Xiaoqiao looked at the door curiously, someone almost broke in, to Wei Xiaoqiao's surprise, it was the lady she met at the door of the unit just now, and when she took off her wide-brimmed hat, Wei Xiaoqiao was even more taken aback, Zhou Zihui, who had not been seen for a long time...... appeared.
"Mr. Shen, I know I'm abrupt. Zhou Zihui lowered her head and said.
Wei Xiaoqiao looked at her and found that Zhou Zihui's temples had been dyed with hoarfrost.
"Xiao Qiao, I won't keep you today," Mr. Shen ignored Zhou Zihui, turned his head to Wei Xiaoqiao, and then took the brocade box and handed it to Wei Xiaoqiao: "Since your father likes it, take it to him to play with, and I will go and get it myself in a few days." ”
Wei Xiaoqiao knew that it was inconvenient for him to stay, so he hurriedly took the brocade box, got up and left.
When he was about to arrive at the door, Wei Xiaoqiao couldn't help but glance at Zhou Zihui, nodded to her out of politeness, and stepped out of the Shen family.
Two days later, in a small building on the outskirts of Paris, France, Wei Xiaoqiao walked into a studio with Yan Ying.
Today's work is about to begin, and Wei Xiaoqiao will identify and price a batch of ancient Chinese porcelain that will be auctioned next month.
The first lot in Wei Xiaoqiao's hand was a celadon bowl from the Ru kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty, Wei Xiaoqiao sat under the lamp and looked at all the details carefully, not daring to have any negligence.
Yan Ying watched quietly from the side, and it wasn't until Wei Xiaoqiao put the bowl down that she asked, "Teacher, the celadon of Ruyao and Longquan don't seem to be the same?"
"Ru kiln's azure glazed porcelain, added agate powder, so the color has a unique green crisp, you see its enamel is clear, like jasper, very textured, the so-called 'rain after the sun', just to describe its color. Wei Xiaoqiao explained.
After seeing a few pieces, Wei Xiaoqiao found that the quality of the lots this time was generally quite high, and she even saw the white glaze printed cloud dragon pattern plate from the Ding kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty, the glaze color was as white as ivory, and there was an extremely warm jade texture, which made people love it.
At this moment, another brocade box was sent to Wei Xiaoqiao.
Seeing the brocade box for the first time, Wei Xiaoqiao was a little stunned, and when the other party staff opened the box, Wei Xiaoqiao was very surprised, who would have thought that she would see the Shen family's Jun kiln azure glazed bell pot here.
When he returned to the hotel in the evening, Wei Xiaoqiao thought about it for a long time, but still called Shen Moting.
The phone was quickly picked up, and Shen Moting's voice came from inside: "Who called me?"
"I called," Wei Xiaoqiao replied, and then said: "It's amazing, you deleted all my numbers, why don't you just blacklist!"
"Even if I delete it, I still remember your number, and I am upset when I see your name on my phone!"
Wei Xiaoqiao laughed and said, "I want to ask you something, isn't that Jun porcelain flower pot a memorial left to you by your mother, why did you sell it?"
"How do you know?" asked Shen Moting rhetorically.
"I helped people appraise the lot, and then I saw that porcelain, you are so short of money now?" Wei Xiaoqiao asked.
"Do you really care, and plan to give me the money?" Shen Moting laughed.
"I'm sorry, I'm poor!" Wei Xiaoqiao replied, "I'm just gloating." ”
Shen Moting paused and said: "In order to raise operating funds, it can only be sold, or before the construction of the Liuma Bridge starts, Shengshi Real Estate will be dissolved directly." ”
Wei Xiaoqiao was surprised: "It's so serious?"
"It's nothing, doing business is like this, always on the verge of bankruptcy," Speaking of this, Shen Moting said arrogantly: "I don't need your sympathy!"
"Don't be sentimental, in that case, I wish you a good price!" Wei Xiaoqiao said, and prepared to hang up the phone.
"When will you come back?" Shen Moting asked.
"After the work is done. Wei Xiaoqiao replied.
Shen Moting smiled at this time: "I went to Yupinxuan in the morning and chatted with your father for a while. ”
Wei Xiaoqiao asked casually, "What are you talking about?"
Shen Moting said proudly: "Of course, it's about the demolition of your family, and today's subway plan is officially out, so you have to have a score in your father's heart." ”
After being stunned for a few seconds, Wei Xiaoqiao was furious: "Shen Moting, you have nothing to do!"
