"Okay, listen to you. I heard your uncle say that your mother inherited your father's calligraphy talent, and the calligraphy is very standard.

Second sister, I think Xiaoxiao is better than you! I can't say that I can't go to the antique shop with a smile, and I can also find the four treasures of the study, which are just for the second sister to use. ”

"How can you praise a child like this? Xiaoxiao is a strange temper, like those old things, things that ordinary children like, she can't lift her energy, no way, so she has to follow her, fortunately, she won't spend money indiscriminately, and the things she buys are great value for money. ”

Ai's mother used to save a lot of temperament, but after half a year, she was affected by Ai Xiaoyu, if you have money, you should spend it, and if you don't have money, you should make money.

"Auntie, we've been around a lot of places today, but we haven't found any special antique markets?"

"Chengdu doesn't have a formal antique market now, right? I think I've heard people say that many people trade antiques in teahouses. This ordinary person can't enter the circle of antiques, and you have to be introduced by an acquaintance. ”

"Let's go, let's go inside."

The name of this shop is 'Four Treasures of the Study', which is easy to understand, Ai Xiaoyu was the first to rush in, she had already felt that there were spiritual antiques in it.

Ai Xiaoyu walked into the store, looked around the store, touched here, looked there, looked like a wanderer, she is a person who knows how to do business, she is very smart, observant, and if she accidentally knows your goal by the other party, he will definitely sit on the ground and raise the price.

Her target should be a Qing Dynasty mahogany inlaid luodian pen holder, however, she first picked up a jade carved cloud pen holder next to the pen holder and looked at it, this should be a modern imitation, jade is also fake jade.

"Boss, how much is this tube? I'm learning calligraphy right now, and I just bought it to hold a pen. ”

The boss of this house is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a shrewd look, seeing that although Ai Xiaoyu is a child, the adults behind her are not badly dressed, so he knows how to deal with it.

"Children, this is a jade pen holder, it's not cheap, see you're a child, I'll also tell you a real price, 30 yuan, although it's a bit expensive, but it's definitely worth it!"

"Huh? Is it so expensive? Where can I afford it? And it's not a good deal! How much is the wooden pen holder next to it? ”

"This cylinder is made of mahogany, I see that you are so sincere, you can take 20 yuan."

Ai's mother saw her daughter's appearance, and knew that what she wanted to buy was this mahogany pen holder, so she came forward to negotiate the price with the boss.

"Huh? Is wood so expensive? Can you have more? My daughter just bought a brush to put it, and if the pen holder is more expensive than the brush, it wouldn't be too much, right? Or, 5 bucks, I'll buy it right away! ”

"Five pieces is not good, this is mahogany, not ordinary wood. Or, 15 pieces, you take it. ”

"It's less, 10 yuan, just 10 yuan, I'll give it right away!" As soon as Ai Ma finished speaking, she took out 10 yuan from her bag and handed it directly to the boss.

"Forget it, 10 yuan is 10 yuan, you take the pen holder, you will have to take care of my business more in the future!"

"No problem, I usually like to visit these little shops."

Ai Xiaoyu looked at Ai's mother's good look, and admired it very much, before in the countryside, her personality may have been suppressed and ruthless, but now it has become much more powerful, which is also good, bad people generally like to bully honest people.

After everyone got in the car, everyone planned to go to the last place today, Wuhou Temple. And Ai's mother never gave the pen holder to her daughter, she kept holding it in her hand to observe.

"Second sister, did Xiaoxiao really choose a good thing?"

"It's possible, but I'm still researching, I don't know much about this, I'm going to have to figure it out for a while."

"Mom, I know that I bought something good, I feel it!"

Nie Xinyuan looked at Ai Xiaoyu's energetic appearance, and really admired it, and said: "Sister Xiaoxiao, wait for us to go to the Wuhou Temple, there is a Jinli folk area on that side, it is possible that you can really pick up the leak!" ”

"Really? That's great, I'm just in time to show my skills! ”

"You kid, say you're fat, you're gasping! How can there be such good luck that has been missing? I haven't even figured out this wood carving yet. Ai's mother saw that her daughter was a little carried away and taught her a lesson.

Ai Xiaoyu didn't dare to say big things, although she knew in her heart that she was buying antiques, but she couldn't say a reason, others would definitely not believe it. She also knew that she was a little proud and complacent, and she reflected on it along the way.

After a while, the "Holy Land of the Three Kingdoms" Wuhou Temple arrived, and several people had a lot of ruins today, and they were not very interested in it, so they didn't get out of the car, and looked at it from the window to see what it looked like.

After getting off the bus in Jinli, everyone found a lively teahouse, found a corner with few people and sat down, ordered a pot of tea, and the adults chatted.

Bai Shibing couldn't sit still, he stood up as soon as he sat down, and said to Ai Xiaoyu: "Sister Xiaoxiao, let's go out and play, there is a mutton skewer there, it's so well grilled, let's go eat mutton skewers!" ”

"yes, the lamb skewers here are particularly delicious!" Bai Shijun couldn't stand the temptation of deliciousness.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, there is still ice powder over there, we will eat lamb skewers and ice powder at the same time."

Nie Xinyuan may be a little more careful, and he understands that little girls are different from boys, boys like meat the most, and girls mostly like sweets.

"Okay, after we eat, you have to go shopping with me, and I have to dig up antiques."

Although she was taught a lesson by Ai's mother, Ai Xiaoyu still wanted to look around, Jinli is really lively, and there may be surprises waiting for her in a crowded place!

"This lamb kebab tastes really good, authentic! Ice powder is also delicious and quenches your thirst. ”

"Yes, let's go buy a string of sugar gourds again, I think this sugar gourd is very good."

Several people are foodies, and they can't stop looking at the delicious food, and there are no adults around, four people, just shopping all the way, and their hands have never been empty, fortunately, a few people are smart, and they only buy one or two copies of everything, so that every snack can be tasted.

Ai Xiaoyu suddenly felt the smell of antiques from a shop called "Book Idle House", and it felt that it was about a thousand years old, very much like antiques in the Northern Song Dynasty.

She took Nie Xinyuan's hand and said, "Brother Xinyuan, let's go into this store and have a look." ”

As soon as Ai Xiaoyu finished speaking, she pulled Nie Xinyuan and walked straight into the store, she knew that the two cousins, although they were not interested in these, but for her safety, they would definitely follow. This shop deserves to be named "Shuxian", which is mostly antique books, calligraphy, and a few calligraphy and paintings, which are also not true.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, do you want to buy a copybook?"

Nie Xinyuan looked at Ai Xiaoyu's serious appearance, and knew that she might want to buy a calligraphy or something, but he could understand that this younger sister had been learning calligraphy with Ai's mother since she was a child, and now she writes very properly with a brush in one hand.

"Yes, I want to help my mother choose two notebooks, preferably the handwriting of celebrities, my mom likes to copy the handwriting of celebrities the most. Now the family has too little collection, and I want to help my mother collect some more. ”

At this time, a young man, only in his twenties, came out of the back room of the shop, and he listened to a little girl of seven or eight years old, who was seriously talking about buying a copybook, and said impatiently: "Little girl, although my copybooks here are all imitations, they are not something that you, a little girl, can afford. Let me explain in advance, the row of copybooks you see, each copybook is less than 50 yuan, I don't sell it! ”

In 1992, 50 yuan was equivalent to a family's living expenses for a month or two, but in the antique market, 50 yuan is really not expensive.

Listening to the words of this shopkeeper, Ai Xiaoyu was very happy, and as soon as he heard the young man's words, he knew that he must not be an expert, but might be the person who helped to watch the store.

In her ring space, Ai Ma can put hundreds in it, she is not short of money now, Ai Ma understands her daughter, knows that she will not spend money indiscriminately, she never controls her pocket money, there is a ring space, Ai Ma is not afraid of her daughter has too much money in her hand, and it is not safe.

Now she may be able to buy the celebrity calligraphy of the Song Dynasty, not to mention fifty yuan, she will also buy one hundred yuan, in the future, these are priceless treasures.
