PS: Today's first update, ask for monthly pass support.

Under the hospitality of the aunt, everyone sat down to drink water, and Baye's mother directly explained her intentions.

"You're so polite." The aunt was very grateful, and then hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Applejack said that we don't have to worry about this matter, it seems that there is a wedding company, just leave it to them to deal with." ”

"The wedding company is to welcome and pick up the bride, but the layout of the new house should be done by you, the eldest sister."

Bayeux's mother said with a smile: "Although most weddings are Western-style nowadays, some traditions cannot be left behind. For example, red dates, peanuts, longan, melon seeds, etc., should also be sprinkled on the bed. ”

"Yes, yes, this is not less." The aunt thought so, and smiled kindly: "I'm looking forward to holding a grandson next year." ”

"Therefore, what should be arranged should still be arranged, so as to please auspiciousness." Baye's mother smiled, and then eagerly discussed with her aunt whether the red double happiness should be posted on the door or the wall of the room.

Regarding this topic, Wang Guan and Baye had no room to interject at all, only obediently observed. After that, Baye's mother and aunt chatted for a while, and then decided to go to the room for a field trip, leaving Wang Guan and Baye to sit in the living room.

At this moment, Wang Guan heard the doorbell ringing, and he was somewhat surprised. Since he was sitting on the chair next to the door, he didn't have much thought, so he got up and opened the door.

The door opened, and there were two people standing outside. A man dressed in blue stolen clothes and sleeves on his arms knew at a glance that he was an old worker doing technical work. The other person is more exquisite, wearing a retro white silk gown, and holding a white paper fan with gold bones in his hand, which is very artistic.

"Huh."

At this time, seeing that it was Wang Guan who opened the door, the old worker was a little surprised: "Is Sister Yu at home?" ”

"Who?"

At this time, the aunt also heard the doorbell ringing and walked out of the room.

"Sister Yu. It's me. The old worker hurriedly smiled, but the expression on his face relaxed slightly. Obviously, he was suspicious of Wang Guan's identity just now, so he was a little nervous.

"Ah, it's Master Zhang, please come in quickly." The aunt hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, and also looked at the middle-aged man in a white silk robe next to Master Zhang with some confusion: "This is ......"

"Hello eldest sister, I'm Song Yinghua from the next building." The middle-aged man smiled and said politely: "I heard that Master Zhang said that a warm-hearted eldest sister moved here, so I came here to get to know her." ”

It's obviously a polite remark, but it makes people feel comfortable when they hear it. There will be no offending. Anyway, the aunt was very happy, and hurriedly invited the two of them in and served tea.

"Sister Yu, the things you asked me to help repair have been repaired." The old worker is also a straight man, as soon as he sat down, he put a thing wrapped in several layers of black plastic bags in his hand on the coffee table, and said with a smile: "You see if you are in the middle." ”

"Master Zhang's craftsmanship must be speechless......"

The aunt praised and unwrapped the plastic bag, revealing the contents of the bag.

The king looked over and saw that it was a wooden shrine. That is, it is a small pavilion used to worship Buddha statues and gods. The origin of the shrine is difficult to say clearly, but in the beginning, the shrine was relatively large, and the cave was to be excavated to enshrine large statues of Buddha and Bodhisattva.

Until later. I don't know whose idea it was, some people changed to use wood and stone materials to make the Buddha shrine small and exquisite, so that it is very convenient to place the Buddha shrine at home to worship the Buddha statue. The benefits of being able to worship gods and Buddhas without leaving home are obvious. Small and delicate Buddhist shrines naturally flourished.

Then, after thousands of years of development, the Buddhist shrine, which was originally monotonous in the shape of a cupboard, gradually developed into more styles. The most basic is a Buddhist shrine made in the style of a palace. In addition, there are pavilions and pavilions, etc., which are equivalent to miniature miniatures of ancient architecture.

At this time, the Buddhist shrine on the coffee table is in the shape of a pagoda, which looks like a seven-story pagoda, and the middle position is hollowed out, which should be used to place the Buddhist gods and the like to be worshipped.

The pure wooden structure of the pagoda-shaped shrine seems to be some years old, and the base is slightly cracked. Now it is surrounded by Master Zhang with a thin iron sheet and reinforced. The aunt did not praise it falsely, Master Zhang's craftsmanship did have two brushes, and the iron sheet was tightly clamped, without any traces of looseness.

In this regard, the aunt is very happy and grateful.

"A little thing, you're welcome." Master Zhang waved his hand and said, "Neighbors, it is also appropriate to help each other......

Although the current social atmosphere and neighborhood relations are getting weaker and weaker, sometimes I don't even know who lives on the other side. But in the eyes of the older generation of aunts and Master Zhang, they still attach great importance to this relationship. After all, at some point, it is definitely not an empty phrase that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

At the same time, Song Yinghua suddenly smiled and said, "Eldest sister, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, you should worship this Buddha shrine for a long time." ”

"Huh?" The aunt was slightly stunned, and nodded truthfully: "That's right, it's been a long time, it's been a thing from my hometown, it was provided by the child's grandfather back then, and then it was my turn to continue to use it until now, and it's been twenty or thirty years." ”

"Sister, you're wrong." Song Yinghua smiled and shook his head: "The Buddha shrine is more than twenty or thirty years, you have to talk about it for a hundred years." In my opinion, this thing is at least more than 100 years old. ”

"What?"

For a moment, the aunt and Master Zhang were stunned.

Next to him, Baye quietly tugged at the corner of Wang Guan's clothes, and his pretty eyes appeared inquiring. Wang Guan stared at the Buddhist shrine for a moment, and then nodded slightly, and also somewhat understood Song Yinghua's intention.

In addition, Wang Guan also has a good impression of Song Yinghua, because he is honest enough to directly point out the age of the Buddhist shrine. Unlike some black-hearted antique dealers, who take advantage of the psychology of the owner of the object who doesn't understand anything, they coax the thing to buy it at a very low price. That's not called picking and missing, it's cheating.

Of course, this is just a preliminary impression and does not mean anything. After all, as an insider, Wang Guan also knows what it means to want to capture and indulge. After secretly giving Baye a look and reassuring her, Wang Guan raised his glass to drink tea and watched coldly.

At the right time, Song Yinghua said bluntly: "In other words, this Buddhist shrine can also be called an antique." ”

"Tombs?"

Master Zhang was surprised: "It's the kind of thing that is often said on TV, very valuable?" ”

"Hehe, Master Zhang has watched TV, so he should also know that antiques are also worthless." Song Yinghua smiled, pointed to the Buddha shrine and said: "For example, this Buddha shrine, because it is a pure wooden structure, and it is not a precious material such as red sandalwood, flower pear, and nanmu, it is definitely not advantageous in price, and there is no way to compare it with the Buddha shrine inlaid with gold and silver jewelry." ”

"However, everything should also be relatively speaking, after all, this Buddhist shrine is a thing in the late Qing Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, and it is not easy to pass it down to this day, and it is well-made, and it should be a specially customized object for large families at that time."

Song Yinghua muttered: "All things considered, the price of this Buddha shrine will not be very low, and there must be many people who want it for thirty or fifty thousand." Or if you meet someone you really like, the price can be higher. ”

"Thirty or fifty thousand?" The aunt's face showed a little surprise, although she had worked hard for most of her life, the savings in the bank must have exceeded thirty or fifty thousand. But for ordinary people, let alone 350,000, it is 35000, which is not a small amount.

Besides, her son's wedding is imminent, and it is when she needs money, so the aunt naturally wants to make the wedding banquet more beautiful, so that her son can have a long face in front of colleagues and friends......

Thinking of this, the aunt also couldn't wait to say: "Big brother, you said that this small tower can really be sold for thirty or fifty thousand?" ”

"Yes, absolutely."

Song Yinghua said categorically: "If the eldest sister suspects that I am blinding you, you can go to the antique shop near the City God Temple to inquire." Even if there are black-hearted shops who are only willing to give you a few thousand dollars, and if you turn around and leave, they will definitely increase the price. Or when they meet a conscientious shopkeeper, they should quote a price of one or two thousand. ”

"This is not a pit for you, but the rules in the industry, when you receive the goods, you must habitually cut the waist and cut it. You only need to talk to him, and you can talk about thirty or forty thousand. Song Yinghua carefully taught: "Of course, there are ways to make more money, but there are also a little troubles. ”

"There are a lot of stalls in the temple, if you know someone, you can ask them to help supply and sell. Or give a cut directly, and they will definitely sell hard to the connoisseurs, and the price may exceed 50,000. ”

Song Yinghua talked eloquently, without concealing it at all.

"But I don't know anyone." The aunt muttered to herself.

At this moment, Master Zhang understood a little, and suddenly smiled: "Sister Yu, you are a fan of the authorities, don't you know someone in front of you." ”

In an instant, the aunt suddenly realized that Song Yinghua would definitely not come to the door to say these words for no reason, maybe she wanted to buy this Buddhist shrine. Thinking like this in her heart, the aunt hesitated a little and said, "Big brother, you ......"

Before she finished speaking, Song Yinghua smiled and said, "It is undeniable that I am also a little interested in this Buddhist shrine, but I am more curious about the things enshrined in the Buddhist shrine." If Sister Yu doesn't mind, can you bring me the things that are enshrined? ”

"As expected."

At the right time, Wang Guan's eyes flashed slightly, guessing that Song Yinghua was going to see the dagger. First of all, he gained the trust of the aunt through the matter of the Buddhist shrine, and then when the things were brought later, the price would be as high as he opened his mouth, and the aunt must have habitually believed it.

If you want to take it, you must give it first, this trick is very common in antique shops.

"Let's see if you're loyal or treacherous." Wang Guan secretly wondered and continued to drink tea and watch. Heroes always appear at the most critical moments. Besides, I can't tell whether Song Yinghua is kind or evil, so I don't rush and take my time.

Wang Guan was not in a hurry, but the aunt was very fast, and hurriedly returned to the room to get something, and the work came out in an instant.

"Big brother, look, this Buddha statue is enshrined in the Buddha shrine."

While speaking, the aunt carefully put things on the coffee table, only to see the Buddha statue sitting solemnly, the palms of the hands closed in front of the chest, the eyes seemed to be slightly closed, it looked like a very ordinary Buddha sitting statue...... (To be continued.) )
