Chapter 24 The Skill of Inheritance

Banniang heart said, I am a designer of classical furniture, won an international award, since I was a child in the world of classical furniture for more than 20 years, if the style, although these boxes are exquisite and simple, but they really can't enter my eyes, but this carver has seen the work, the lacquer method in the Great Song Dynasty, is also very rare, so it is "not ashamed to ask".

But this kind of stinky fart can't be said, so she took out her signature smile, and her eyebrows and eyes instantly bent into the first quarter moon: "Uncle, these boxes you bought, although they are exquisite and extraordinary, their elegance is not comparable to ordinary makeup, but seriously speaking, it is not superior, I think the carving is more exquisite, and the lacquer method is also very interesting." ”

These decorative boxes, with a small use of plain paint as the background color, is naturally very elegant and fresh, very special, the old man came to the interest, twisted his beard and smiled proudly: "The little lady is knowledgeable, to say that the old body of these boxes, the style is not novel, although the carving is good, it is not that no one can do it, but this lacquer method, not the old body boasts, it is really ...... Can the little lady know why the inconspicuous box of the old body is so expensive? ”

Banniang took a small jewelry box, did not open it, only took it in her hand to look at it carefully, although only used plain lacquer, but it is also shiny, as smooth as silk, and the feel is even more delicate and lush. After looking at it for a while, Shi Niangfang said: "But this lacquer method is cumbersome and complicated, and it takes a lot of effort." However, if I have any questions, can I ask my husband for advice? ”

The old man's eyes were already wide, and he said unhurriedly when he saw the question: "You say that the little lady just asks, as long as the old body can speak, she will not hide it." ”

That is what you can't say, Banniang smiled: "Don't worry, the craftsmanship is your ability to eat, I don't dare to ask, but ask the uncle, although these boxes are fresh and elegant with plain lacquer, but if you use ink green, xia red, apricot yellow, green and purple colors as materials, wouldn't it be more extraordinary to show this lacquer method?" If you use the few colors I said, and then with exquisite painting, inlaid with suitable treasure jade ornaments such as clams and glass roses, then this small ornament box can also show the golden brilliance, even if it is placed in the best treasure shop, it will not lose its color, why does the old man use only plain colors? ”

"This ......" The old man looked at Shi Niang's shiny old eyes, which instantly dimmed, and said with a wry smile, "It's not that the old body is not used, it's really ......."

Speaking of this, the old man changed the topic and smiled at Banniang: "It's rare that the little lady is so young that she knows the craftsmanship of the old body, if the little lady doesn't give up, the box of the little lady in her hand will be given to the little lady." ”

The old man did not finish his words, Banniang knew that people had unspeakable hidden, and it was inevitably strong, but she was gone, but she was really reluctant, the twenty-first world was talking about "people-oriented", which can be interpreted in a variety of ways, but there is one thing that is fundamental: talent is rare.

Thinking of this, Banniang smiled and said: "The old man earns some hard-earned money, where am I embarrassed to really ask you to send it, I bought this box, but there is a reluctance, if the old man is willing, can you tell me where your family lives?" If there is a problem in the future, it is also cheap to ask the old husband for advice. ”

Seeing the old husband Shen Xuan, Banniang also felt that she was presumptuous, and couldn't help but apologize: "My husband blamed me for being reckless, I really respected my father's craftsmanship, so I had the intention of getting acquainted, my fourth brother likes to study these the most, if I take this box home, he will see it, it must be itchy and unbearable, and I want to get to know the old man, if I can't say it, the fourth brother will be disappointed, so I took the liberty to ask the old man to respect the residence, and there is no other meaning." ”

The old man laughed secretly, when he was old, he became a fearful person, he is now living here, 108,000 miles away from his hometown, who does others know his surname? And what is there to worry about? Besides, this little lady looks like she is only ten years old, so what bad intentions can she have? Thinking like this, the old man smiled and said: "The old man's surname is Qiao, and the little lady calls me Qiao, and now he is settled in a house surnamed Wang in the east of the city, and he rents a room to live." But I set up a stall here all night long, and if the little lady's brother is looking for me, he can only come to the night market here at night. ”

Banniang didn't say much, took the box that the old man was going to give her, called Qi Niang over, paid Lao Qiao 600 yuan, and then pulled a few people to leave.

Zeng Zijin, the fourth child of the Zeng family, was studying in the house at this time, and suddenly sneezed a few times, it was really inexplicable, this day was gradually getting hotter, and he didn't suffer from the wind and cold?

Zeng Zijin's questions about the weather were put aside for the time being, and when she was far away from her husband's stall, Qi Niang couldn't help but complain: "Eighth sister, you spent 600 yuan, what are you doing to buy this useless box?" ”

"Yes, Aunt Ba, when I look back, my grandmother knows about it, and she should scold you again." Huang'er also muttered on the side.

Banniang's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles: "The ninth brother said that he wanted to give his mother a birthday gift." It's also a little bit of our heart, isn't it? Seventh sister, do you think I'm too expensive? ”

"It's expensive," Goro, who had been putting a stump on the side without squeaking, flicked her head at this time, "Just now a guest asked the old man, but he only asked for four hundred and fifty wen." Besides, the old man also said that he sent you, so you have to pay, and you shouldn't pay more, right? What do you say if you like it, it's worth the price, my brother usually looks at you but is shrewd, not such a poor and generous person, how can you be confused this time? ”

Banniang shook her head and asked Jue'er, who had not squeaked all the time: "Jue'er, have you ever seen Ba Gu confused?" ”

"No, I didn't." Jue Lang held a large stack of fans in one hand, and a pack of Baisuo and other small items bought by Banniang in the other, and replied honestly and calmly.

"That's right, Jue'er still understands Aunt Ba," Banniang raised her little face, said approvingly, and handed the box to Qi Niang's hand, "Sister Seven, take a closer look, what is different about this box?" ”

Although there are lights on the street, it is not very real, but Qi Niang still looked at it carefully for a long time, this is bought for 600 yuan, enough for her family to eat for a few days, and after looking at it for a while, she said: "This layer is made ingeniously and exquisitely." Eighth sister, what are you buying this for? ”

Sure enough, it was a layman who watched the excitement, and Banniang shook her head: "Didn't you say it?" It's not my mother's birthday in a few days, so I'll give it to my mother as a gift. ”

Gorou was anxious to wait: "Eighth sister, tell me honestly, what are your plans to buy this box?" ”

He didn't believe that Banniang would spend 600 wen to buy such a good-looking but useless box for no reason. In fact, Banniang really doesn't have any purpose, but she can see the lacquer art in this Great Song Kingdom, and she is just happy.

"Make a good match." Banniang grinned.

She really didn't expect to be able to see this in the Great Song Dynasty in the later generations of the light of the lacquer art, and it turned out to be in their small county, the most incomprehensible thing is that she has been in this world for more than half a year, although she has not been out of the door, but there are a lot of furniture at home, those simple and simple furniture can not be compared with the later Ming and Qing Dynasty furniture, is this lacquer art, and has never seen the process of pushing the light paint. How can she not be surprised when she sees it today?

The most pleasing thing is that this lacquer art is obviously still raised in the deep boudoir and has not been promoted. This is a great joy for her. Whether she sells jewelry patterns or wants to open a restaurant, she just wants to save enough money as soon as possible, and she wants to do a furniture business, which is the point. It's a pity that she can't afford this business now.

But it's one thing to be able to do it, looking at the craftsmanship of this old man, even if he can't invite someone now, but if one day, she can really open a furniture shop, saying that this old man will be able to go out of the mountain, and he will be able to add luster to the furniture kingdom she has built.

It's a pity that her ideals can't be realized now.

Among the brothers of the Zeng family, although Jiulang is small, he has the most flexible mind, where to believe her nonsense of "forming a good fate", and was about to ask, when he saw Banniang glaring at her fiercely, he swallowed the question in his stomach.

Banniang took Qi Niang's arm: "Seventh sister, let's go shopping again, it's still early." Let's see what else needs to be bought. ”

Just Qi Niang has spent 100 Wen to buy things, Banniang threw 600 Wen in a box, Qi Niang has to buy anything more, and she just bought the things she needs, so she said: "You don't need to buy anything anymore, why don't you go back?" ”

Hong'er was reluctant to hear it: "Aunt Seven, my grandfather finally allowed us to come out, and Aunt Eighth also said that it was early, and Huang'er was a little hungry, why don't you eat something?" ”

There are a lot of snacks in the night market, Banniang's life in her previous life is comparable to that of a princess, where have you eaten this kind of street food? In the past, the second brother took her out to play, because she was hungry, the second brother was ruthless, and bought a bowl of Qibao five-flavor porridge, which cost twenty Wen, when Banniang came to this world for more than two months, it was the first time to eat such a delicious porridge, almost burst into tears, feeling that her entire taste of thunder was resurrected, full of happiness and wonderful feelings, since then, Banniang has never forgotten the snacks in the night market, in fact, those things are not necessarily delicious, she is unforgettable, is the feeling of how to lose.

At this time, listening to Huang'er's suggestion, Banniang nodded again and again, but Qi Niang hesitated: "I and the fifth brother only have the same amount of money on us, and we bought this box, plus those sundries, and now there are only more than two hundred Wen." ”

She was worried that her mother would blame her when she went back.

Banniang took her hand and shook it: "More than two hundred Wen, enough for a few of us to eat, Seventh Sister rest assured, the money is spent, and no matter how much you save it, you will not lack this money." What's more, the martial sister just said that the pattern, thirty times, I only sell three or four, and there are also one hundred and ten. ”

"That's right," Gorou nodded, "It's hard to come out, and it's time to have fun." Huang'er, let's go, the fifth uncle will take you to eat delicious food. ”

The rest of the money was still in Wulang's pocket, and Qi Niang couldn't, so she had to go with the four uncles and nephews who were excited.
