Chapter 316: The Disappearing Plum Vase (Four Changes)
Meng Dongyue quietly glanced at Chu Ning, telling her to be careful, don't be calculated by the group of people led by Xi Kun. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Chu Ning only felt confused.
She didn't know the group of people who followed later, so what did people calculate for her?
Moreover, because of the restoration masters Xi Yutong and Shi Jin, Chu Ning originally had a good impression of the Xi family.
However, since Meng Dongyue gave her a signal, it will definitely not be untargeted.
Chu Ning nodded at Meng Dongyue, signaling that he knew what he knew.
The group soon arrived at the study, Wang Lao pushed the door open, and was about to introduce his study to everyone, his eyes swept through the study, and suddenly his eyes froze, and his face suddenly became solemn.
Xi Kun, who was walking behind, saw that the team stopped, not only did he not feel strange, but his expression became excited.
"Uncle, why don't you go in?" Xi Kun asked deliberately, "What's wrong?"
Meng Dongyue's heart moved, and he turned his head and glanced at Xi Kun deeply.
Xi Kun was almost frightened by Meng Dongyue's eyes, but fortunately he stabilized in time, and laughed provocatively at Meng Dongyue.
Chu Ning had also sensed that something was wrong.
She was already standing beside Wang Lao, and the situation in the study was completely unobstructed to her. With a glance, Chu Ning's gaze suddenly stopped on Wang Lao's desk.
The desk has always been one of the most important furnishings in the study.
So when Chu Ning came up to put the gift box before, although she didn't stay in the study for long, she subconsciously looked at the desk at that time.
The desk in Wang's study is a typical Huanghuali furniture. However, the desk itself should not be an antique, but the Huanghuali wood used to make the desk should have been removed from some old Huanghuali furniture.
These old huanghuali woods have been redesigned to create this desk.
Even so, though, the value of this desk is not low.
The most important reason is naturally because the Huanghuali wood used to make the desk is superb, not to mention, the craftsmen who make this desk are also of the same master level, so that the whole desk can hardly find the slightest shortcoming.
On this desk, something was originally placed at random.
There are pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and vase decorations, which are completely arranged according to the desks of the ancients.
And at this moment, everything else on Wang Lao's desk is still there, but the plum vase with plum blossoms has disappeared!
The plum vase is one of the traditional famous porcelain in China.
It has a thin mouth and a short neck, extremely broad shoulders, which are getting narrower and narrower from top to bottom, and has a thin bottom and circled feet, and its shape is very unique.
The diameter of the plum bottle is too small, and it can only be used to insert plum branches, which is also called commensurate with the thin bones of the plum, so it is named the plum bottle.
When the plum bottle was first born, it was also called a sutra bottle.
During the Song Dynasty, after the royal lectures, the emperor would entertain the ministers to eat and drink. At that time, the wine at the banquet was packed in a plum bottle, so the more widespread name of the plum bottle at that time was actually a prayer bottle.
At that time, plum bottles were often used to hold sake and were common in major sake breweries. It was not until the Ming Dynasty that it slowly became famous for its decorative furnishings.
During the Song Dynasty, the style of the plum vase was relatively simple, and in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the shape of the plum vase became diverse, the division of labor was more clear, and the royal court used more and more.
The plum vase on Wang Lao's desk is a common Song Dynasty style, and it is also produced by the official kiln, which is well preserved and of high value.
Up to now, the price of that plum bottle is hardly much lower than the glazed blue and white tea pot that Chu Ning gave to Wang Lao from Master Duchen!
There are a lot of valuable things in Wang's study, and the plum bottle that disappeared is not even in the top three. But at this moment, everything else in the study is there, but the plum bottle is missing!
Compared to the most valuable things, the most striking feature of the vanished plum vase is its location.
The plum vase with the plum plum inserted on the desk is obviously much more conspicuous than the other items.
It's gone all of a sudden, and it's especially easy to spot.
Chu Ning's eyes widened, and there was incredulity in his eyes.
The things in Mr. Wang's study were stolen?
If this thing gets out, it's obviously a joke!
Obviously, Wang Lao himself thought the same way.
"Dongyue, you go and inform people, let people watch the gate, no one is allowed to go out casually!" Wang Lao ordered directly.
Something really happened?!
Meng Dongyue didn't know what was going on, so he first responded seriously, and then said with some hesitation: "Grandpa Wang, the guests who came today have a good background. If you make such a decision rashly, if you don't give a suitable reason, I'm afraid you will offend people!"
"I'm an old bone, I don't know how many years I can live, and I'm afraid of offending anyone?" Wang Lao said lightly, "If you want to go, you will go." I'll be in charge of the rest!"
Everyone else has provoked him, and he can still control other people's feelings?!
Meng Dongyue saw that Wang Lao suppressed his anger, but he seemed to still maintain his sanity, and left.
As soon as he left, Xi Kun was no one to suppress him, and immediately came up: "Uncle, is there really an accident? Did you lose something? I said a long time ago, you have so many valuable things here, how can you casually put those people who don't know the roots? It's too easy to have an accident!"
The group of young people who followed behind Xi Kun also echoed, and their eyes were still glancing at Chu Yingluo and Chu Ning, almost saying that their father and daughter were thieves!
Wang Lao's heart was furious at this time, and he was most annoyed by others making noise in his ears. Seeing that Xi Kun and the others were talking endlessly, Wang Laomeng turned his head and said with an unkind face: "Who said I lost something here?!"
What even Meng Dongyue didn't know, how could these dumb boys know?!
Although Wang Lao is old and angry at the moment, he will not be fooled by this shallow provocation.
Xi Kun didn't expect that Wang Lao didn't follow the plot he expected, his face turned blue and white for a while, and he hesitated for a long time before he said: "Didn't you ask Meng Dongyue to close the door? This must be a big incident! I think about it, only when I lose something, will I let the people on the scene not leave!"
Thinking about it?
He clearly blurted it out!
Wang Lao snorted coldly: "I haven't seen your brain spin so fast before, but today it's so good! Since you are so smart, why don't you come and tell me what I have lost?!"
The group of young people who followed Xi Kun were intimidated by Wang Lao's momentum, and they didn't dare to come out, let alone make any more coaxing, they were as honest as rabbits.
Chu Yingluo and Chu Ning looked at each other and looked at Xi Kun calmly.
Xi Kun broke out in a cold sweat, and said stiffly: "This, how can I know this?!" Uncle, if you lose something, then we will quickly investigate! Especially those who are from small families and have shallow eyelids, so they should check it carefully!"
