Chapter 8 Ancient Paintings

After eating, Gu Xiaoxiao got up to pay, I didn't fight with the other party, I didn't have money, and I didn't even have the qualifications to pretend to be forced. The taste in my heart is very uncomfortable, when the business of Hejude Auction House is booming, I don't blink my eyes when I take my friends out to eat and spend a thousand children.

"Peng Peng, dad asked you,"

Taking advantage of Gu Xiaoxiao's absence, I asked my son, "Does Xiaoxiao often bring you here to eat steak?" ”

The little ones don't lie and will definitely tell the truth. Who knows, when my son heard what I said, his little face turned red, and he wanted to say something but couldn't seem to say it.

"Peng Peng, what did Dad ask you, what's wrong with you?" I find it strange.

"Dad..." the son's eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked like he was going to cry.

"Okay, Daddy won't ask you. Eat it while it's hot. "I know my son very well, and he said that my question was confirmed, but Gu Xiaoxiao must have told him not to tell me about it.

I think it's strange and incomprehensible. Gu Xiaoxiao often takes her son to eat Western food, at least a few hundred yuan at a time, and a kindergarten teacher's monthly salary is five or six thousand, how can she be willing to pay out of her own pocket?

In addition, Huang Yijia usually picks up her son after school, Gu Xiaoxiao left her son to take him to eat Western food, Huang Yijia should know about this, but she didn't tell me. Why not? Don't you think it's necessary to be small?

After settling the bill, Gu Xiaoxiao walked back to the cubicle from the counter and packed the rest of the dishes for me to take home. As a man, I still have this bit of self-esteem, and I refused. Gu Xiaoxiao didn't insist, she took it herself, and said to me when she went out to say goodbye: "Chen Pengcheng is very interested in Go, and when the professional chess player popularized Go knowledge today, Chen Pengcheng listened very seriously." I've heard that you can play Go, so you can play more with your son when you have time. ”

On the way home, I pondered Gu Xiaoxin's words, and turned from curiosity to doubt. How did the other party know that I could play Go, she must have known something about me, as a teacher, it is understandable that the parents of the students have a certain understanding, but she even knows that I can play Go, which is a bit too much.

The most important thing is tonight's meal, let alone more than 1,000 yuan, the other party just paid out of his own pocket to invite my grandfather, which is too abnormal.

When I got home, Huang Yijia had already returned, I asked her if she and Gu Xiaoxiao were very familiar, but Huang Yijia shook her head and said that she was not familiar, but she had met her son a few times when she sent her son to school and left school, and she had nothing to do with each other.

I didn't think much of it.

When I was about to go to bed at 11 o'clock in the evening, there was a movement on my WeChat, and it was the owner of the moving company in the group: Chen Yang, I have a job early tomorrow morning, do you have time?

I tried my right arm and thought it was okay, so I replied: I have time.

"Okay, tomorrow morning at half past four, gather at the entrance of the professor's garden."

"Don't worry, boss, I will be there on time."

I put my phone on the alarm, and arrived at the door of the professor's garden before half past four the next day. It was not yet dawn, and after a while, I saw the moving company's car coming in a hazy haze.

The boss's name is Mengxue, she is very young, very beautiful, and has a very toned body. She was the first to jump out of the car, and then Da Mu also got out of the car.

Da Mou is called Mu Da Zhuang, as his name suggests, he is 1.85 meters tall and has very strong muscles.

I have learned that Mengxue has been a fitness coach, and Mu Dazhuang is one of her students. Later, for some reason, Meng Xue resigned from her coach and registered with Ant Moving, and several employees were students from her previous coaching, and Mu Dazhuang was one of them.

"It's quite early," Mengxue smiled at me and instructed Mu Dazhuang, "Da Mou, you bring the car over." Keep the movement quiet, don't disturb the people. ”

"Okay."

After Mu Dazhuang went to the doorman to register, he took the car into the community.

Mengxue walked into the community, stood in the middle of the main road of the community, folded her hands, faced the road, and bowed respectfully. It's the rule.

Soon, I followed Mengxue to a villa with the house number 003. The professor's garden is very famous in Ningzhou City, the community is high-end, and the owners who live in the community are all rich people. In addition to the small high-rise buildings, there are few villas in the community.

The owner of the 003 villa is a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body and looks very shrewd. After Mengxue briefly introduced herself, the other party said: "Women don't let me have eyebrows, I really didn't expect the owner of Ant Moving Company to be a lesbian, and she is so young and beautiful." He then gave a brief introduction to the situation.

It turned out that the owner of the villa, the middle-aged man named Xia Mingguang, was a returned overseas Chinese, and he wanted to sell the villa because he was going to do business in other places. Before selling, he contacted Ant Moving Company online to give valuable furniture to relatives in the countryside.

At this time, Da Mu came over with a car. Xia Mingguang took us into the villa and told us what we wanted and what we didn't.

Those who can afford to live in villas are wealthy people, and usually, the villas are very delicately decorated, with a lot of expensive furniture and various electrical appliances. However, the villa where Xia Mingguang lives is almost not decorated, just simply paved with floor tiles and painted walls, which is not much better than the blank.

There wasn't much to it, except for a double bed and TV sofa for sleeping, and basic household appliances.

After Da Mou brought the other two guys into the house, he handed me a pair of gloves for work, and the four of us waited for Meng Xue to speak.

Meng Xue has a habit that after receiving the job, she will rush to the scene as soon as possible, and then observe the things to be moved one by one, and only after there is no problem will she give the order to move.

After I first discovered Meng Xue's habit, I thought it was strange, the boss was at home to command or go out to collect business, how could he be on the scene in person?

Later, when I talked to Da Mou, Da Mu said that there was something strange about this, and Manager Meng was serious and responsible.

But I think there must be a reason.

Meng Xue walked from the bedroom to the living room, looking at the things to be moved one by one. She looked at each object very closely, and when she walked over each object, she carefully observed it and stroked it with her hand, as if trying to find a flaw in it.

After looking at all the items, Meng Xue nodded to me and Da Mu, "Let's work." ”

"Okay." Da Mu and I responded and began to divide the work.

I noticed that when Meng Xue's gaze left the last item and ordered her to work, a trace of disappointment passed in her eyes, as if she was looking for something just now, but she didn't find it.

Da Mu and the other two guys went to the bedroom to carry the double bed, and I moved the single sofa in the living room alone. I was about to pick up the sofa when I suddenly found Meng Xue standing next to the TV cabinet, staring at a painting on the wall.

I glanced at the drawing, and my eyes were immediately drawn to it.

It is an ancient painting landscape map. The trunk of the tree is vigorous, there is a deep ravine, there is a small bridge flowing water, and there is a boy holding an ou on the bridge. Across the bridge, another boy stood with a food box and looked into the distance. There is a cave across the stream, there are stalactites hanging on the wall, there is a spring water trickling out, there is an old man at the entrance of the cave on the piano, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

In the lower left corner of the painting, there is a line of words "Peach Paradise Map".

Ancient paintings are rarely hung in modern houses, and if they are, they are also printed. And this painting, of course, is not printed, and it gives me a very extraordinary feeling.

Identification of ancient paintings, from the picture alone, if there is only a structure and a little dull, it can be identified as a copy, if there is a brushwork but no structure, it can be concluded that it is a temporary book, if the gesture is not continuous, disorganized, it is a collection of books.

I noticed that the scenery of this peach paradise picture is quite imposing, the characters are vivid and expressive, and the overall atmosphere of the picture is calm and solemn. In a word, the author's pen and ink skills are very high, and it is an excellent work.

It can't be the real thing, right?

I held my breath and my eyes fell on the paper. It was silk paper, the silk was fine and evenly thick, I couldn't help but reach out and touch it gently, the paper was like a pile of ash with signs of wrinkles.

Come close and smell it, there is an ancient fragrance. Close to the upper end of the shaft part, there are broken lines, cracks are horizontal and straight, with the axis to make a fish mouth shape, and the slightest hair.

I was taken aback, this picture of Paradise Wonderland does not seem to be a fake.

The ink color of ancient calligraphy, whether dry or fat, penetrates the paper, while the ink of the fake is floating but not real. This painting has been preliminarily identified by me and should be genuine.

"Chen Yang, you seem to be very interested in ancient paintings."

I was so focused that I forgot about my surroundings just now. Meng Xue's words brought me back to my senses, and when I saw her looking at me with strange eyes, I hurriedly said: "Where, where is there any research, but I look at the scenery above and draw it really well, just like the real thing." ”
