Chapter 155: The Past
Meng Yi called his master full of remorse and said about the old mansion, and after being laughed at, he was told that Ye Jinglan's two pieces of furniture were repaired to him, and he happened to have an old friend who was an expert in restoration, and they would come to the capital together in two days. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After hearing this, Ye Jinglan was glad that she didn't listen to Meng Yi and went directly to the unknown senior brother, but she also saw some clues, "Senior brother, you seem to have a connection with the senior brother, aren't you afraid that the master will be angry?" ”
"Alas, after I came to the capital, he took care of me a lot, and also helped me find a lot of customers, and besides, I don't blame my brother for what happened back then, I... Don't tell Master! Meng Yi sighed for a while, he regarded his senior brother as his own brother, so it was really difficult for him to be mixed in the middle.
"Yes, I won't." Ye Jinglan nodded in response, saying that she would not make a small report, but she didn't have any feelings for that senior brother, so she wouldn't help him talk like a white lotus to solve misunderstandings or anything.
Two days later, the two old men arrived, Ye Jinglan entertained them with delicious food and drink, and let the two live in her house, and by the way, find a way to solve the repair problem.
After another three days, the two things were restored, and people knew at a glance that they were the ones that had been opened to the next generation.
In particular, this restored rosewood table is definitely a sight to behold, because this is a table in the palace dedicated to the emperor, and the pattern of the five-clawed golden dragon can only be used by the emperor.
"Girl, yes, that's good!" The two old men said excitedly.
Meng Yi muttered in a low voice beside him: "Regret, what a pity!" "His heart is dripping blood right now!
Although Ye Jinglan's table is not as good as the $35 million item at the American auction, it is definitely worth $20 million, and there is a screen!
Just these two things than he picked for a long time, happily bought things.... Alas, I don't want to, I'm thinking that he's going to vomit blood.
After that, Meng Yi left a shadow in his heart, and never went shopping with Ye Jinglan again, he was afraid that he would go crazy again, you said that if he walked in front of such a big family as his master, it would be okay, but it was a little girl, or his junior sister, how to say it, and people let him see it first.
"Hmph, I said a long time ago that your character, greedy for small and cheap and big losses, has it been fulfilled! You usually think it's a waste of time, but you know that if you are willing to spend more time, you can definitely earn more than you can do it. Wang Xuemin said with hatred that iron does not become steel.
"Yes, what Master taught me is that I must keep my eyes open and look carefully in the future."
"But Master, Senior Sister, this thing has to be done as soon as possible! Otherwise, this screen is easy to say, if this table is known, the junior sister is afraid that she will not be idle. Meng Yi was a little glad that he didn't ask his senior brother for help, otherwise the people from the museum would have to come a few times.
"Hmph, let's not say who knows." Wang Xuemin didn't think so, he felt that the little apprentice was not short of money now, there was no need to sell all the good things in a hurry, in his eyes, if this thing was kept for another two years, the price could be increased.
"I... I saw Senior Brother two days ago, so... I accidentally said that I leaked my mouth, but I didn't say that the thing was with my sister. Meng Yi said a little embarrassed, he was also too excited, and he didn't hold it after drinking a little wine.
It turned out that the mahogany furniture that Meng Yi received was collected by his senior brother, and a friend of his senior brother wanted to buy it, and then when it was delivered, the two had a meal and drank some wine.
The apprentice's words made Wang Xuemin's face change greatly, and he slapped the table angrily and shouted: "You fool, didn't I say that you should stop associating with him?" Do you think he's a good guy? Yes, he is the best at being a good person in front of those who can use it. ”
"Master, it's not right for you to say that about Senior Brother, although there is a misunderstanding between you, Senior Brother really treats me as a younger brother, and what I can be used by him is all Senior Brother is helping me." Meng Yi plucked up the courage to speak for his senior brother.
"You..." Wang Xuemin was speechless with anger, and finally drooped down when he pointed at Meng Yi, there were some things he didn't want to say, but.
"Master, don't be angry, if you have something to say, I believe that Master must have a reason for saying this." Ye Jinglan was afraid that Old Man Wang would be angry, so she hurriedly helped the person to sit down and persuaded him.
"Okay, don't be angry with your master, do you really think that your master will completely cut off relations with your senior brother because of his marriage and work? Your master hasn't said it for so many years, it's not that he doesn't know what he did, but he can't afford to lose that person! The old man who came with Wang Xuemin waved his hand and spoke for his old friend.
"What the hell is the reason for that, Master, Master doesn't tell me how I know!" Meng Yi said with an aggrieved face.
"I found out about that thing first, and then told your master, it was five years ago, your senior brother was already well-known in the circle, and at that time there was a folk treasure appreciation competition in the capital, and your senior brother participated as a judge." The old man recalled the events of the year and said slowly.
"The old man brought the family's treasure in order to treat his son's illness, and was going to sell it to his son for treatment, but he was told that it was just an imitation, and the old man was sad and planned to break the thing, but your senior brother stopped him, he said that he was willing to spend 10,000 yuan to buy the thing and let the old man take it to his son for treatment."
"At that time, 10,000 yuan was almost the entire net worth of your senior brother, and everyone was moved by your senior brother's behavior, and I was the same when I was present."
"But two months later, when I went to the south to restore an antique to a Hui merchant, I actually saw that thing again, and the Hui merchant told me that he had bought this antique a month ago with an explanation and spent two million." Speaking of this, the old man shook his head, he didn't want to believe that his friend's apprentice was actually such a person.
"You don't have to be surprised, my first reaction at that time was not to believe it, thinking it was just a misunderstanding, but when I told your senior brother that I wanted to see the imitation, your senior brother said that he lost it, and then within a few months, your senior brother went to work in the museum, although his Yue family helped a lot, but he was able to sit in this position today, but not only because of the Yue family." Wang Xuemin said calmly.
"That..."Meng Yi wanted to say that it wasn't necessarily what the senior brother did, but when he thought back to the bits and pieces of the past few years, he found that it was most likely the kind of situation that the master said, but he still didn't want to believe that the senior brother didn't have any feelings for him at all.
"Master, I don't believe what you said, some people are good people on the surface and do good deeds, but they are just because they don't have enough chips for betrayal." Ye Jinglan was extremely glad that she didn't give the thing to the other party, otherwise the other party could have said that the thing was damaged in the process of repair, after all, she couldn't keep an eye on it all the time, and then this thing worth tens of millions of dollars was theirs.
