Chapter 65: Uncle Fan, who pays attention to people

"I'm a relative of this family, are you?" the old man asked Yu Cailan.

"Oh, I'm from the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and I work part-time here. Yu Cailan saw that the old man's face was a bit like Mrs. He, and guessed that she was a relative of Mrs. He.

She guessed correctly, Mama Zhang soon came out to open the door for them, and Yu Cailan knew that this old man was Mrs. He's younger brother, surnamed Fan, known as Fan Siye.

Fan Siye entered the living room and asked, "Aren't people there?"

Zhang's mother looked sorry and said, "Sister He went out in the morning and came back at about half past nine." Brother He went to walk the birds and came back after a while. ”

Fan Siye didn't care when he heard it, and said, "That's okay, you go and get busy with yours, I'll wait for a while." ”

Jiang Xiaoyou went out with her mother after class on Saturday, so she didn't stay here the night before, and she hasn't come here yet. Zhang's mother explained a few words to Yu Cailan and went to get busy.

So Fan Siye and Yu Cailan both sat on the sofa and waited.

Fan Siye chatted with Yu Cailan out of politeness, then stood up and looked at the plum bottle in the corner of the living room, which he had never seen before, so he approached to take a closer look.

Modern people pay more attention to the luxury goods they wear, eat, and use, while the ancients were more elegant, and they would feel that hanging so much gold, silver and jade on their bodies is called cheesy. Generally, showing off wealth is to use this kind of home furnishings to show off wealth, and it cannot be said to be showing off wealth, it is a kind of life attitude.

People with a background like Mrs. He are also like this, through these furnishings to reflect a graceful or elegant bearing.

Since the plum vase can be placed there solemnly, I think it is an antiquity.

"Less, do you know what this thing is?" Fan Siye turned around with his hands behind his back and asked Yu Cailan.

Out of politeness, Yu Cailan stood up, walked to the plum bottle, and said, "This should be the plum bottle." ”

Fan Siye said "oh", and then asked, "How do you know?" He was probably a little idle, so he casually chatted with the little girl.

"There are antique books in the school library, and I've seen them there. Of course, Yu Cailan didn't see it in the library of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, but she couldn't explain anything else.

Fan Siye was interested and asked, "Then what do you tell me what this plum bottle is for?"

"The plum bottle was not originally called the plum bottle, it was used to hold wine in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not called the plum bottle at that time. In the Song Dynasty, the emperor needed to ask the teacher to lecture and study when he became an adult, and after the teacher finished speaking, the emperor wanted to set up a banquet to invite the teacher to eat. ”

Yu Cailan paused, saw that Fan Siye couldn't help nodding, and continued: "After the Song Dynasty, the banquet system was abolished, and the literati found that using this kind of bottle to insert plum blossoms matched the skinny plum blossoms very well, so they called it a plum bottle. ”

Fan Siye listened, very happy, he often felt bored talking with people, listened to Yu Cailan's words, but started to talk, took out an oval yellow rosewood bottom plate from the bag he brought, and asked Yu Cailan: "Do you know what this thing is?"

Yu Cailan saw that the plate he took out was the bottom of the wood, and the bottom of the wood inside the plate was inlaid with white flowers and green leaves and a yellow bird with some material.

She really knew this kind of antique, so she said: "This plate is a hundred treasures, but I can't tell what the materials are." ”

Yu Cailan was able to say this, Fan Siye was very happy, and was about to have a good chat with her about the exquisiteness of this hundred treasures, and Old Man He came back.

"The fourth is here?" the old man greeted Fan Siye. This time, Fan Si came to find him to go out to run errands together.

Although he couldn't get used to Fan Si's sour body, Fan Si did things in a disciplined manner, so the relationship between the two was good.

After putting down the bird cage, he told Fan Siye: "I'll go change my clothes, you wait for me for a while." Then he went to the bedroom.

Fourth Master Fan agreed, since Old Man He is back, there is no time to talk about the matter of Baibao Embedded. Fan Siye took advantage of the time when Old Man He was changing clothes and asked Yu Cailan: "How do you know this?"

In his opinion, since Yu Cailan came to work part-time, his family background may not be ideal, and now antiques are not popular, so there are naturally not many people who understand them. So where did she know about it?

"I studied Chinese medicine, and I admired the wisdom of the ancients, so I was more interested in ancient things, and I happened to see a book on this in the library, so I took it and read it. I don't know much, just a little scratch of the surface. ”

"Oh, that's not bad either. Fan Siye and Yu Cailan said a few more words, and Old Man He had already replaced the white undershirt he was wearing with a white shirt with a lapel, which looked more formal, obviously going out with Fan Siye to run errands.

When Fourth Master Fan saw him come out, he said goodbye to Yu Cailan and left the He family with Old Man He.

Yu Cailan sat for a while, Jiang Xiaoyou was sent to her grandmother's house by Jiang Chaoyang, Jiang Chaoyang watched Jiang Xiaoyou follow Yu Cailan upstairs to class, he also left, today a colleague put a full moon wine for the child, he has to go. The He family is busy this Sunday.

Mrs. He went out to calm down for a few hours, and arrived home at almost ten o'clock. She had already thought of the wording, which was just equivalent to picking blue to make up for Jiang Xiaoyou's lesson, and she had to talk to her.

She didn't wait in the living room this time, and when she came back, she put down her handbag, walked upstairs, came to the door of Jiang Xiaoyou's room, and knocked on the door.

Jiang Xiaoyou and Yu Cailan turned around, and when they saw that it was Mrs. He, they didn't know why she came up. She used to wait downstairs for them to come down.

Yu Cailan took a look at the clothes she was wearing, it was an embroidered silk cheongsam, probably not long after returning home, and the clothes had not been changed. However, no matter how good the clothes are, they can't hide her depressed look.

Mrs. He asked, "Are you done with today's class?"

"It's over, grandma, do you have something to do?" Since she knew that Mrs. He was He Chenfeng's grandmother, Yu Cailan had some premonitions.

"Well, I have something to talk to you about, Xiaoyou, since you have finished studying, your brain is quite tired, go to the yard to play for a while, grandma wants to talk to your sister Yu about something." ”

Jiang Xiaoyou rarely saw her grandmother with such a look, although she was a little arrogant, but the eyes of adults could still understand, after listening to the old lady's words, she stood up, opened the door and went downstairs.

Mrs. He said to Yu Cailan: "You come with me." With that, she walked ahead and took Yu Cailan to the guest room where she did massage therapy every day.

Mrs. He got straight to the point: "Less, you have been here for a week since you came to grandma, and I know a little bit about you, you are a good girl." What grandma has to say later, if you don't like it, don't hate grandma, grandma also has a hard time. ”

Yu Cailan listened to her opening remarks, and she could already think of what she was going to say next.

But she still said, "Grandma, if you have any ideas, just say it." ”
