Yi Gaofeng was born in the Yi family's mansion, and the original lady who lived outside with Yi Huanyan was a paranoid crazy woman who was obviously loveless and refused to give up the position of wife, Yi Huanyan was a poor little unlucky guy who was affected by his mother.
Yi Gaofeng has always believed so convictionally. There was no way, he had only heard Yi Huanyan from Hu Xianli's mouth, and no one else had discussed Yi Huanyan. Even if it is easy to get shun, he is only mentioned two or three times a year, and his name is not called.
As for why grandpa didn't live with them, why grandpa never had a good face for their mother and son, Hu Xianli said that grandpa is a pedantic old man, and the crazy woman is the one he chose for your dad, your dad doesn't love her all his life, and he has wronged himself by living with her, so he came out to live and bought a mansion.
The crazy woman died, Hu Xianli became Mrs. Yi as she wished, and Yi Huanyan, who had always heard of but had never met a few times, dragged his suitcase away after only one face.
Yi Gaofeng only remembered his back that was a few years older than him, but much shorter than him.
Since then, Yi Huanyan has lived a miserable life, leaving an eternal imprint in his heart, when he was young, he saw his mother crying, and he still wanted to find trouble with Yi Huanyan and let his son live as his mother. Now I don't think he needs to pay any attention to this so-called brother.
Yi Huanyan's mother is said to have gone to his grandfather's house after her death, and within a few months, his mother gloated and told him that Yi Huanyan was really a natural mourner, and his mother wanted to ease the relationship between husband and wife, but the relationship between husband and wife became worse and worse after he was born. His grandfather loved him, and he died early, and now his mother is dead and went to his grandfather, and within a few months, he made his grandfather's house a miasma, and his uncle turned against him.
is such a poor worm who lives alone with his mother's inheritance, Yi Huanyan, can not only go to Zhou Minxue's birthday party, but also come to such a high-end auction. Yi Gaofeng's face was ugly, and Hu Xianli hurriedly pulled him and asked him not to lose his temper in front of Yi Deshun.
Yi Deshun also felt strange when he spoke, "You don't know Huanyan's grandfather? ”
"Dad, Xiao Xiao Group has cooperated with us less in recent years, and it is normal for Gao Feng not to know." Yi Huanxin said.
Because she believed what Hu Xianli said, because Yi Huanyan and his second uncle were sent to Europe, Yi Huan was sure that Yi Huanyan would not get the help of his grandfather's family, and she didn't pay much attention to the decline in Xiao Xiao's business in recent years.
Because she subconsciously didn't want to believe that Yi Huanyan was noble, she also deliberately ignored Yi Huanyan, but now, it seems that there is still a need to pay attention.
Today's auction focuses on porcelain and calligraphy and paintings, starting with jewelry and watches, which Yi Huanyan is not interested in, and his eldest cousin at the table auctioned a set of emerald and diamond brooches.
Hu Xianli also took a picture of a diamond suit, and was satisfied to see that Yi Gaofeng was still staring at Yi Gaofeng with an unswerving face, and pulled him to whisper, "You are serious, there are many celadon in the porcelain today, you must take a picture of it and make a birthday gift for your father." ”
"Yi Huanyan's grandfather is Xiao Xiao Group, I didn't even know, you lied to me that they had no money." Yi Fengfeng said sullenly.
"They're not as good as they used to be." Hu Xianli didn't feel embarrassed and said.
"It's not as good as before, it's richer than my grandfather." Yi Fengfeng said coldly.
"You dislike your grandfather, you go to be Xiao Xiao's grandson, you see your father twice a year, and the Yi family has nothing to do with him." Hu Xianli said, "His grandfather still has a son and a grandson, how much can he give to his grandson?" Yi's is yours alone! ”
The two spoke very softly. Hearing this, Yi Gaofeng's face became better.
"This lot is a rare pink diamond ring with a 2.5 gram center diamond, FancyOrangePink, an emerald-cut ring with a brilliant face, small and delicate pear-shaped, claw-setting, and set on either side of the setting with 1.09 carats of diamonds. The starting price is 500,000 yuan, and each price increase shall not be less than 10,000 yuan. Now the auction begins. ”
The eldest cousin couldn't help but raise the price once, she said to Yi Huanyan, in fact, the color of this pink diamond is not pure, with orange color, and 2.5 grams is not very big, "But orange pink is also very good-looking, good girl, I can't help but want it." ”
It seems that many women here think so, and they have raised their cards, and when the price exceeds one million, the eldest cousin will not raise their cards, "It's too watery." The true character of a businessman in her bones still defeated the girlish heart that she didn't have much in her heart.
"You said how good it is for you to have a daughter now, and if you have a granddaughter, I can buy such a little toy to tease her." Uncle saw the birth of the stitches.
"Grandpa, look at Dad." The eldest cousin said.
"She wants to give birth if she wants to give birth, she doesn't want to give birth if she doesn't want to give birth, and such a big person still wants you to be urging behind." Grandpa said, "When Yu Ran gave birth to a second child and refused to have another child, I didn't urge you to have a son." "Yu Ran is the eldest aunt.
"Got it, Dad." Uncle can only say.
The pink diamond ring was unexpectedly photographed for a long time, and after reaching 1.5 million, there were actually only two people holding cards, one Zhou Minxue, and the other was also a young beauty in Chinese clothes.
"It seems true that the original family wants to enter the entertainment industry, and Yuan Hejing is now on the same page as Zhou Min." The eldest cousin said.
Yi Huanyan looked at it a little worriedly, Yuan Hejing Ai and Zhou Minxue were not once or twice, but Zhou Minxue would not be a character who had to compete for his strengths and weaknesses in public. Why are you a little serious this time?
Zhou Minxue raised the sign with a calm expression, and his heart had already been so stinky that people and ghosts should not be approached, today was really a bad day, Jiang Houde made her angry, and wanted to buy a favorite jewelry to coax herself to play, and that nasty ghost didn't know each other to come out and make trouble. What pink diamonds do you buy? Do you still have a little girlishness in you?
If it was normal, Zhou Minxue would have smiled, the good lot is still behind, and it has taken a lot of time for a ring, and many people are looking at them, but today they will not let it. Zhou Min thought angrily, the old lady was already unhappy, not to mention that she didn't like pure pink diamonds, so she liked orange powder.
"1,650,000 once."
"Three million once!" The auctioneer stared at the two women and almost missed Yi Huanyan's offer.
Yi Huanyan hurried to raise the price in front of Zhou Minxue, and Zhou Minxue saw him raise the price, so he stopped raising his cards.
Rong Xinda turned his head and glanced at him, "People are stupid and have a lot of money." He turned his head to Rong Chengming and said, "Brother, you will give him a discount on the commission at that time, lest he have to sell the house to make money." ”
Rong Chengming looked at him and didn't speak.
Yi Gaofeng saw Yi Huanyan raise his card, and subconsciously raised his card, because he didn't have any writing on the card, so he raised the minimum amount.
"3.01 million once."
There was a sneering laughter in all directions, Yi Gaofeng felt that his face was hot, he took back the brand and picked up the pen, and waited for Yi Huanyan to ask for a price, he must have a few points more than him.
"This ring is not worth it." Hu Xianli said, and quietly lowered her voice and whispered, "You have to focus on the porcelain in the back." ”
"3,500,000 once." Yuan Hejing raised her card for a long time, she smiled at Zhou Minxue, I know that Yi Huanyan and hello, auction price for you, I just won't let you get your wish, I am bound to win the ring, and I am bound to win the market share.
"5 million once." Jiang Houde raised his card, and his mother looked at him, "Are you crazy?" ”
"Hurry up and finish, how long has it been since a ring." Jiang Houde said disappreciably.
His attitude is natural, and his speech is also the voice of most people, and for a while, Yuan Hejing didn't know whether to continue to increase the price.
"Five million twice."
"Five million three times." The auctioneer's voice fell, and the small hammer struck three times, "Congratulations to Mr. Jiang on the 12th table for winning the lot 008 pink diamond ring." ”
The etiquette held the tray and sent the ring to Jiang Houde, Jiang Houde signed the purchase contract next to him, and looked at him with stars in his blue skirt, the pink diamond is no longer suitable for wearing at his mother's age, could it be bought to give her. It's just that Jiang Houde sat next to his father when he sat down, and there were two people between her, otherwise she would have stretched out her finger and asked Jiang Houde to bring it to her personally.
"Wait." Jiang Houde said that he took out a rose from the vase on the table, placed it next to the ring, and asked the etiquette to give the ring to Zhou Minxue at table seven.
After the etiquette was determined, Wan Ting walked towards Zhou Minxue, and after Jiang Houde took the ring, she actually didn't think about anything, and she didn't think if he would give it to her. Her eyes closed slightly, and the fucking day was over.
Etiquette handed the ring over, and she nodded coolly to let the ring be put down, and looked at the rose, although she didn't speak, the corners of her lips rose.
She didn't even need to look at Yuan Hejing's face.
"Tsk, that big fool can finally be decisive for a while." Rong Xinda said.
"Want a discount?" Rong Cheng asked.
"What's the discount? Earn more of his money and make a share of the money in the future. Rong Xinda said.
Cen Che looked at him strangely, he didn't hear that the second son was the same, ah, maybe the same as his brother, men and women are not informal.
Cen Che turned his head and glanced at Yi Huanyan, who was not very handsome, but with fair skin and clear eyebrows, he looked like a person with a good temper.
Rong Chengming asked when he turned his head, "Do you think our brothers have similar tastes?" ”
"Not really." Cen Che said, "Boss, you don't like glamorous types. ”
After a short intermission, the porcelain auction began. Yi Huanyan was actually a little bored, and his formal clothes restrained him, and he was a little bit thinking about 66 again.
The eldest cousin saw that he was a little uneasy, so she asked him what was wrong, Yi Huanyan said that she missed her son, and the eldest cousin said that it is difficult for you to take a child alone, but the boy still can't take it too delicate.
The porcelain was filmed, and Yi Huanyan also wanted to take a porcelain for his father's birthday, his father liked porcelain and azure glaze. It's not that he has much affection for his dad, it's that he only knows this among all his dad's preferences.
The auctioneer introduced a Song Dynasty private kiln of the shadow blue glaze three-legged pen washing, the starting price of 15 million, each increase should not be less than 1 million.
Yi Huanyan decided to raise his cards when he heard the word green glaze, and the first two or three were all increased by one million, so he directly raised his cards to shoot 30 million.
"30 million once." The auctioneer shouted.
"35 million once." Said the auctioneer.
Yi Huanyan turned his head to look, it was Yi Gaofeng who was holding up the card and looking at him proudly. It seems that he is going to fight with himself, and Yi Huanyan gave up raising his cards after thinking about it.
This wash is not big, and other interested ones were scared off by 30 million, and Yi Fengfeng took a photo of this wash with 35 million. He handed it to Yi Deshun, "Dad, your birthday present." ”
"Good boy." Yi Deshun said with a smile, Yi Gaofeng looked at Yi Huanyan with a provocative smile, but Yi Huanyan didn't even look at this side.
"This wash is too small, it's gone when it's gone." The eldest cousin said.
Yi Huanyan nodded, "There is still one later, I don't care, just choose any one and send it." ”
White porcelain, Qing enamel color, and finally to celadon again, this is a Song Dynasty official kiln of the blue glaze square bottle, the Song Dynasty official kiln on the market is one less piece, not much circulation. This starting price is 28 million, and each increase must not be less than 1 million.
After observing the two rounds of raising cards, Yi Huanyan raised the price of 50 million, Yi Gaofeng still wanted to raise the cards, but his mother held him down and didn't let him raise it.
This vessel is large, and it is produced by the official kiln, or there are other colleagues who hesitate to increase the price, Yi Huanyan doesn't care about raising the card again, 60 million. His attitude is very clear, he will increase the whole price, and he will come if he is brave enough.
Some people don't give up on citing 61 million once, and Yi Huanyan citing 70 million. Now no one is fighting with him anymore, Yi Huanyan took a picture of the bottle. Yi Huanyan doesn't often come out and walk around, the old still have to think about knowing who he is, and the young people don't know who he is? The grandson of the Xiao family? It's not like that.
It wasn't until the ceremony held the beauty bottle and stayed for a short time in Yi Huanyan's that he turned his head and put the bottle in front of Yi Deshun.
"Ah~ It's Yi Deshun's eldest son, the grandson of the Xiao family." Someone was stunned.
"No, according to age, there is an eldest lady in the Yi family." The young man retorted.
"It wasn't born by a mother, it doesn't count." The old man said, "The child is still a good child." ”
Yi Huanyan frowned a little, "The auction price is so high?" It's cheaper to buy it privately from a collector. ”
"It's really childish, it's too expensive to shoot it all." Grandpa said.
"I'm going to take a more expensive one for my grandfather later." Yi Huanyan said, "My grandfather is much better to me. ”
"You're so childish." The eldest cousin laughed.
My grandfather came to this auction to have a picture of Qi Baishi's plantain, he had auctioned it once a few years ago, and the final transaction price was 80 million, which was a few years earlier, and now Qi Baishi's paintings are not less than 100 million units.
Grandpa is not a collector of Qi Baishi, he just likes this banana picture. The older I get, the more I reminisce about the past, and I remember that when I got married for the first time, there was a plantain outside the house.
He and his wife were there and gave birth to their first son.
