If you're not mistaken, it's a snuffbox!

After snuff was introduced into our country at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, snuff bottles were gradually formed, and they reached their heyday in the Qing Dynasty, but later with the fall of the Qing Dynasty, there were fewer and fewer people who used snuff bottles, and snuff bottles gradually became a kind of 'gift', and there were almost no people who used their real functions. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

According to Shen Dahai, it was the grandfather (grandfather's father) who worked for the young master of a wealthy family when he was young, and the old snuff bottles that the young master rewarded him with are said to have come out of the palace office, and then the grandfather passed them down as family heirlooms.

There are three in total, one of which is complete, the material is jade, what kind of jade it is, they don't understand, they only know that it is very valuable, and the body of the pot is carved with patterns.

The other two are ceramic, one with a painting of a grasshopper and the other with a cabbage, but there is no lid, the bottom seems to be broken, and there is a little notch the size of a small fingernail, but fortunately it is on the edge, and there is no leakage at the bottom of the bottle.

When she was a child, her father Shen Dahai liked to hold a snuff box to show off with her and her brother in the winter, talk about her grandfather, and occasionally get in good spirits, and would mix the dried chrysanthemums and dried mint leaves collected by Cheng Parsley with borneol from the village clinic and grind them into powder and put them in the snuffbox painted with Chinese cabbage, so that when they feel that their heads are swollen, they smell it, and they will immediately be clear-sighted.

A few years ago, when the four olds were broken, the Red Guards searched her house, because someone in the village had seen his snuff bottle, fortunately, he had only seen the snuff bottle with Chinese cabbage painted on it, and the others had already been hidden by the old lady Cheng Parsley at the bottom of the city pressure box, just like that, Shen Dahai had to take out this snuff bottle with a missing horn as the 'four olds' and was smashed by the Red Guards, and Shen Dahai cried in distress for half the night, it was from the palace!

The remaining two were then more tightly hidden, and she hadn't seen them in years.

So, as soon as she saw the contents of the wicker box, she realized that it was a snuffbox.

Shen Hui couldn't help but feel a little moved, even if she didn't keep it as an antique, buy one and send it back, and when the Cultural Revolution was over, it would be good to play with Shen Dahai.

Thinking about it, Shen Hui stepped forward and said, "Can I take a look at the contents of your bag?"

Shen Hui had already noticed that the young man was not angry because the girl from the art troupe showed the snuffbox to others, but a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, Shen Hui knew that he was actually doing it on purpose, in order to attract more people's attention to his things.

Hearing this, a big smile bloomed on the young man's face, "Okay, but the conditions are the same as the one just now, do you agree?"

Shen Hui nodded, "Well, you can, don't worry, I'll buy it." ”

The young man smiled and opened the Green Army bag, "Look!"

At the moment when the bag was opened, Shen Hui, who thought that he had a lot of knowledge with his father, couldn't help but cover his mouth and stopped the exclamation that had already been exported, because there was actually a half-pack of snuff bottles in the bag!

Shen Hui yawned, concealed her gaffe, and looked carefully, there were about a dozen or so of them, in addition to the blue and white painted on the surface of the ceramic just now, there were also similar ones to her home, painted with gnats or Chinese cabbage, and painted with bamboo, beauty, most of them were ceramic, and one was glass, but there were also flaws, there was a notch on the body of the pot, one was stone, the pale cyan texture was like water flowing through the body of the pot, the texture was shiny and smooth, and I always felt that it was better than the ceramic one.

Shen Hui was surprised, although his father didn't know much at the time, but she also knew that ordinary people used bamboo, wood, gourd, root carving, etc., if it wasn't for the grandfather who made a great contribution at that time, the young master would be reluctant to give away the snuffbox, even if it was broken, it can be seen that this snuffbox is not a bargain.

But now, there are so many of these young men, Shen Hui was moved, and hesitated, should he buy them all?

She was mainly worried that the origin of this thing was unknown, and what if someone found out.

"Do you know what these are called?" Shen Hui asked, pointing to the snuffbox after all, this thing is not a popular thing, it is not that she looks down on this young man, it is really possible that he does not know snuff bottles.

Sure enough, the young man shook his head, "I don't know what it's called, I just know that it's an old antique, but it's valuable." ”

Shen Hui snorted secretly, these snuff bottles are really valuable, but this young man really doesn't know its value, otherwise he wouldn't sell it for five cents a piece, what he said is just a casual word often said by vendors, just to tell customers that his things are good.

However, the young man had no treasure and did not know it, but she missed it cheaply.

"Where did you get these things?" Shen Hui said again.

The young man rolled his eyes, "No comment!"

Shen Hui glanced at him, looked at his fingers and said lightly: "I want to buy a few bottles of mint liquid, who knows if your origin is unknown?"

The young man's ears moved, a few, that must be five dollars, enough for his family to eat and drink for a while!

"It was entrusted to me by a friend, his house was raided, he got the news in advance and put things in my house, no, it's not so serious now, his family is so poor that he can't even afford to drink water, I just thought about taking out things and selling them, after all, people have to live, I ran a lot of places, and many people like these things. So, don't worry, these things come from normal sources, and no one will come to them!"

Shen Hui stared at his eyes closely, she couldn't see anything, and she couldn't tell if what he said was true or false for a while, but it didn't matter, as long as it wasn't from an unknown source, she wanted it, even if she didn't use it, she could pass it on as a family heirloom, or play with it for her father, even if it was placed on the cabinet, it would look good.

"Well, I'll do it, but it's not appropriate here. Shen Hui pretended to bargain with him and whispered, "You follow the stream into the village, find the winter melon family living in the east of the village, wait for me in their yard, and report my name when you go, and they will let you in." ”

After telling him his name, he asked, "Wait a minute, you estimate the price of these things." ”

The young man had already heard that he was all over, his eyebrows fluttered happily, but for fear of being noticed by others, he tightened his face, and nodded busily when he heard that he was going to estimate it, "Okay, okay, you wait a minute, I won't sell it to others, I'll buy it all for you, well, how about giving you a discount when the time comes?"

Shen Hui nodded expressionlessly, so that the people in the distance couldn't judge what the two said for a while.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you, you're all, along with these!" he said, nodding on a few other things.
