Chapter 233: Family Banquet Confession
Maybe it was infected by Luo Ping's eating appearance, Liu Lulu couldn't help but taste a few more bites of the dish, but she didn't know how much salt and vinegar Xiong Xiaozhen put in the vinegared shredded potatoes, and the sour and salty taste made her really unable to swallow.
Under the gaze of the three of them, Luo Ping didn't seem to feel it at all, eating in large gulps, eating vegetables, and tears flowed down as he ate.
"Brother Luo Ping, why are you crying?"
Liu Lulu asked strangely, and quickly pulled out a tissue and handed it to him.
Luo Ping forced a smile and wiped away the tears from his eyes, "I am happy to see you and your parents living so happily together." β
It is true that Luo Ping saw that their family of three was living so happily, and he couldn't help but think of his parents, and the sadness in his heart came to his heart again.
Liu Lulu overheard the conversation between Liu Chao and Xiong Xiaozhen yesterday, and knew that Luo Ping's mother was gone, and his father was missing, he grew up in an orphanage, and when she saw him like this today, the little girl felt a little uncomfortable.
"Brother Luo Ping, don't be sad, from now on, our family will be your home, and we are all family."
Luo Ping nodded heavily and said with a smile, "Okay, from now on, you will be my own sister." β
Liu Chao and Xiong Xiaozhen looked at each other and smiled, Xiong Xiaozhen said with a smile, "I don't know if your Uncle Liu told you something." When you were just born, your parents asked your Uncle Liu to be your godfather. So, what Lulu said is really right, you are really her brother. β
Luo Ping was shocked and looked at her and Liu Chao excitedly.
"Yes, as soon as you were born, I became your godfather, so this family is also your home, and we are all family."
Liu Chao stood up with a smile, took a piece of red wine from the wine cabinet, and poured a glass for several people.
"Come, let's raise a glass together and celebrate Luo Ping's homecoming."
Luo Ping stood up with great excitement, resisted the urge to shed tears and said, "Godfather, godmother, sister, I respect you." β
Bang bang bang!
The crisp sound of the glass wine glass sounded in the room, and Luo Ping raised his head and drank the red wine in the glass.
β¦β¦
Beijing Museum.
The director, Xiao Jianmin, is 58 years old this year, and has worked in the museum all his life, rising from an ordinary official all the way up, and has been sitting in the position of director for eight years.
In the early years, he was in the prime of life, and he wanted to build the museum into a world-class museum, not only carried out a number of reforms in the museum, but also applied for a large amount of construction funds through various connections. After several years of hard work, he finally transformed the museum into a first-class museum in China, which is only one step away from his goal.
However, at the end of last year, a new female researcher accidentally crushed a piece of famous porcelain from the Song kiln when she was making instruments in CΔo. This would not have been a big deal inside the museum, as there are a few of these things every year because of problems or other unexpected circumstances.
But this matter somehow spread out, and the staff of the museum outside damaged hundreds of millions of cultural relics because of cΔo's improper work. Reporters flocked to the scene, and the matter soon appeared in the major mainstream media across the country, and for a while, in order to deal with this matter, he was so anxious that he could hardly sleep all night.
Xiao Jianmin is quite capable, and he has a good personal relationship with the leaders of the Cultural Relics Bureau, so after his efforts, this turmoil gradually subsided.
However, the related construction of the museum and the application of a number of research topics came to a complete standstill, and Xiao Jianmin later fell seriously ill, and after recovering from the illness, he completely lost his original ambition, and only thought about sticking to the rules, and retired smoothly when he reached the age.
But he didn't expect that there would be chaos in the museum again.
The precious artifacts in the museum's collection were smuggled out of the museum and replaced with highly realistic fakes!
When he first received the news, Xiao Jianmin was a hundred people who didn't believe it.
Not to mention that the museum's own mature management system can prevent this situation to a great extent, just say that the researchers and librarians in the museum know everything well.
Therefore, he would never believe that such a thing happened until he saw the conclusive evidence.
But the facts were in front of him.
JΗng Cha found a total of eighteen precious antiques from Zheng Jinsong's house, all of which he took advantage of his position to secretly take out of the museum by using the trick of exchanging a tanuki for a prince.
And that's not even counting the precious artifacts he had previously sold.
Even he himself couldn't tell how many artifacts he had taken out of the museum.
A large part of them were secretly taken out by him during the expansion of the museum, and later on, he found that these cultural relics in the collection would not be carefully screened at all, so he became more and more emboldened, and even a few national precious cultural relics made him secretly drop the bag.
Zheng Jinsong and his wife have a total of more than 30 million yuan in their bank accounts, and under their names, they have a total of five properties and three cars in the capital.
Xiao Jianmin was completely stunned.
In any way, this is definitely an unprecedented shocking case, and for the museum, for him, this case is as powerful as a magnitude 10 earthquake.
However, things are far from that simple.
Zheng Jinsong is just a researcher at the museum. He also conducts various research work in the museum, and has easy access to more than 200,000 cultural relics in the museum's collection, with nearly 100 researchers.
Who can guarantee that there is no second or third Zheng Jinsong among them?
Xiao Jianmin even has the heart to die, but he can't die, and he can't die. This case happened right under his nose, and he has an unshirkable responsibility as the curator.
JΗng Fang and the comrades of the Cultural Relics Bureau have been investigating this matter for the past few days, and Xiao Jianmin, as the first person in charge of the museum, must accompany them at all times to create all kinds of favorable conditions for their investigation work.
More critically, this investigation was conducted in secret.
This incident is far from being comparable to the researcher crushing an ancient porcelain from the Song kiln, and if it spreads, it will shake the whole country. For the sake of safety, the leadership of the Cultural Relics Bureau decided to investigate the case secretly after Xiangshangtou's application, and all information was limited to a small circle of communication.
Fortunately, it is now the eleventh long holiday, and many researchers in the museum are on vacation, and even those reporters who are everywhere seem to have disappeared.
So, this huge black cauldron is finally covered.
But despite this, Xiao Jianmin is still worried.
The museum has a total collection of more than 200,000 precious cultural relics, these cultural relics are witnesses of history, not to mention the priceless, they have an irreplaceable role in the study of China's history.
The top priority is not only to find out those fakes from the more than 200,000 cultural relics, but also to carry out it secretly, preferably before the end of the National Day holiday, which can be imagined as difficult.
The fakes that Zheng Jinsong confessed have been cleaned out, but no one knows how many fakes are still hidden in the remaining cultural relics.
The only way to do this is to screen them one by one.
However, even if those are locked in the warehouse, except for those artifacts that are difficult for even senior researchers to see, and those large artifacts, there are still thousands of artifacts that need to be screened one by one.
There are only three days left on the long holiday, and it is an impossible task to find fakes from these thousands of cultural relics in three days.
Xiao Jianmin is now crying without tears.
β¦β¦
After eating, Luo Ping helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and the family sat around the sofa and listened to Luo Ping talk about his experience over the years.
Listening and listening, Xiong Xiaozhen's eyes were red, the tissue in her hand had been changed four times, and the little beauty Liu Lulu's eyes were also swollen from crying, she leaned tightly in her mother's arms, and her tears wet the clothes of the two people.
"It's been a difficult time, but I feel like I've really grown up because of what I've been through. When I find my father, I must let him know that his son has not become a useless person. β
"Well said."
Liu Chao nodded heavily, "Your grandfather nΗinΗi went early, and your father also grew up in an orphanage." The conditions at that time were very poor, and he still failed to go to university in the end. If he knew that you not only supported yourself with your own hands, helped those children in the orphanage, but also were admitted to Jiang University through hard work, he would be very happy. β
"Brother Luo Ping, you are amazing." Liu Lulu wiped her eyes and said in a choked voice.
Luo Ping saw that she and her mother were crying sadly, and she was very moved in her heart, and she also wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she smiled and said, "But now it's okay, I've found my godfather and godmother, and I have such a beautiful sister, I won't have to worry about anything in the future." β
Xiong Xiaozhen smiled, "Yes, in the future, you will be a member of this family just like Lulu." When you graduate, you will return to the capital, and at that time we lived together as a family, happy every day, and no longer had to have the bitter pain of the past. β
After gossiping for a while, Xiong Xiaozhen suddenly asked again, "You should be twenty years old this year, did you have a girlfriend in school?" β
Luo Ping was just about to speak, when Liu Lulu suddenly shouted, "I know." β
Everyone looked at her together.
"Brother Luo Ping and that Sister Xu Ting grew up together, childhood sweethearts, you must love each other very much, don't you?"
Luo Ping smiled and nodded, causing the little girl to her little chin arrogantly towards the two adults.
Liu Chao and Xiong Xiaozhen glanced at each other, and both of them had a little disappointment in their eyes.
After chatting for a while, under Xiong Xiaozhen's order, Liu Lulu reluctantly went back to the house to review her homework. Luo Ping looked at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and he decided to say goodbye and go home.
At this moment, Liu Chao's mobile phone on the coffee table rang.
He frowned and listened for a while after connecting, and his face became very serious, "Haode, I know." Don't worry, Director Huang, I will definitely stay at the museum 24 hours a day, and always urge them to complete the screening as soon as possible. β
Seeing that he hung up the phone, Xiong Xiaozhen's face became not very good, "It's a long vacation, why do you still have to work overtime?" β
"There's no way, it's still the museum incident, the boss said, they must be asked to find out those fakes during the eleventh day, otherwise when the long vacation is over, the matter will spread out, and the boss will be passive."
"Didn't you say that there are thousands of cultural relics to be screened, how can three days be enough?"
"Look up as much as you can." Liu Chao shook his head and sighed.
The most unlucky thing was Xiao Jianmin, but their Cultural Relics Bureau was also implicated, so he had to end his vacation immediately.
He took the car keys and went out with Luo Ping.
"Uncle Liu, I'll go with you to have a look."
ps: Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish you all a happy festival in advance!
