There was a sudden silence in the room, and the other couple looked at each other, maybe they didn't think about how no one wanted the baby who thought they were good?

After a while, Zhang Guoqing stood up and was about to say goodbye and leave, when he suddenly heard the woman ask, "Big brother, how much can you drive?" ”

Zhang Guoqing frowned, "Sister-in-law, listen to me, if you don't lack money, keep it." When the world changes, these things will always be as valuable as they used to be. ”

Hearing Zhang Guoqing say this, the husband and wife looked at each other for a long time, and the woman spoke again, "Big brother, you offer the price first, if it's really low, we will keep it first." ”

When Zhang Guoqing heard this, he shook his head helplessly, "One hundred catties of national food stamps, plus one hundred yuan." No more, so much money is enough for me to go to Xinjiang Province for two round-trips. ”

Saying that, he looked at Zhou Jiao, "Third brother, let's go." ”

"Big brother, wait, more."

Zhang Guoqing: If he doesn't understand these things, the other party doesn't dare to keep them, and he can't keep them, then his brain is really in water. It is impossible for the other party to have no gold in his hands, and there may be good things, but it is estimated that they will not be able to blow it up.

He sighed, "Why don't you add fifty yuan to five calligraphy and paintings?" In other words, I have not even seen anything to make such a high price, and it is also for the sake of the sincerity of my eldest brother and sister-in-law. ”

"Otherwise, you better not sell it, my brothers will definitely forget about this matter as soon as they go out tonight, and you don't have to worry about us showing your mouth. Go back and find a place to bury it, and keep a grandchild in the future. ”

"Daddy?"

The man looked at Zhang Guoqing steadily, opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally said, "You look at the calligraphy and painting first, and then add more if it is appropriate." ”

This time, Zhang Guoqing hesitated. He didn't hesitate, he guessed that the other party had already seen that he wanted those five calligraphy and paintings. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, I only know a few words." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Zhou Jiao, "Third brother, how about you take a look for your brother?" If you can get by, you need it, but if you can't do it, there's no way. ”

Seeing that Zhou Jiao began to look at the painting, Zhang Guoqing sat down on the edge of the kang and smiled at the couple who were staring at Zhou Jiao: "My younger brother learned to mount paper from the master in the provincial capital, and he is not very proficient, but he is much better than me." I'm not afraid of your jokes, without him, I usually don't dare to accept any antique calligraphy and paintings, those things can't be done without ink. ”

Seeing that the couple's attention was attracted to him, he continued: "I have a brother who spent a hundred yuan the year before last to receive a large box of calligraphy and paintings, guess what happened to him? ”

"What's wrong?"

"I almost drank pesticides. It's all fake! This is not bad, there is a buddy who was a few years earlier than me when I started, and they collected the boxes of calligraphy and painting books, and there was a year when there was a flood? It's all ruined. ”

"It's a pity ......"

Zhang Guoqing clapped his hands, "It's not." So it doesn't matter if we pack up the wood and books in this line, but the calligraphy and painting jars are all worried, in addition to the many fakes, I am also worried about accidents......"

On the side, Zhou Jiao listened to his nonsense, and unfolded five calligraphy and paintings to take a cursory look, and a smile flashed in her eyes. After seeing it, he retreated behind him, "They are all paintings by masters of the Republic of China." ”

"Yo, my brother really didn't lie to me, it's really worthless." Zhang Guoqing had an epiphany, "Okay, since you are righteous, we can't be villains who don't talk much." ”

"I don't say 150 yuan, just 160 yuan plus 100 pounds of national food stamps. How? Brother, this is really the highest price, no matter how many brothers there are, they can only say that they can't help it. ”

The man looked at his daughter-in-law, saw that she was hesitant, and looked at Zhang Guoqing, "You press sixty yuan for this painting, which is atmospheric enough!" But these jade artifacts are really good things, can you add more? ”

"Yes, big brother, it's not enough to buy a sewing machine. We don't want you more, 200 yuan and 100 catties of food stamps. ”

Zhang Guoqing looked behind him in embarrassment and winked at Zhou Jiao.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao immediately turned around and muttered in a rough voice that everyone could hear: "It's almost midnight, and the ink is still there." Give one hundred and eighteen, don't just go. ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled embarrassedly at them, "My third brother is still a child, so I let you laugh." But he was right in one sentence, just one hundred and eighteen, it's really not early. ”

Having said that, the matter was also settled, Zhang Guoqing paid them one hundred and eighty yuan and one hundred catties of food stamps, tied the pair of jars with silk cloth and handed them to Zhou Jiao.

I took out a large black bag from my bag, stuffed it into a cardboard box the size of a shoebox, then stuffed it into a wooden box, inserted it into my briefcase, and finally erected five painting scrolls on it.

Holding these things, Zhang Guoqing said goodbye to them.

walked for dozens of meters, and when he saw that there was no one around, he let Zhou Jiao enter the space. It's been such a tossing and turning on this big night, and it's almost twelve o'clock when I return to the guest house.

At this time, in addition to Zhao Chuanguang's room, Zhou Xiaozheng and several men also got together to drink and chat, and everyone else had already fallen asleep.

Zhou Jiao and her family deliberately went over to show their faces in front of her father, so that he could rest assured. As a result, as soon as I entered, I saw Zhao Dashan, who was snoring and sleeping soundly, and almost didn't laugh Zhou Jiao to death.

Zhao Yuanyuan will get married tomorrow, but her father is not at home and she is still drunk. Needless to say, it must have been her godfather's ghost idea.

"Girls can't stay up late, go to bed. Tomorrow and Xiao Wu will go early. I've already told you Uncle Dashan, and tomorrow you'll represent a few of us. ”

Zhou Jiao nodded. Her dad and several uncles couldn't have been there.

"I'll go to the military region with your five uncles for a meeting tomorrow morning, and I'll leave a car for you, and don't forget the train the night after tomorrow."

Zhou Jiao rolled her eyes, "Okay." My mother happened to be going to see the Fang family's sister-in-law. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at her when he heard the words and nodded. This kid ...... Come and play without forgetting the main thing.

"Dad, did you tell your uncles that the aluminum plant is going to be relocated?"

Zhao Chuanguang hooked Zhou Xiaozheng's neck funny, "Brother Zheng, look, my daughter is intimate." Girl, your dad has reminded us a few, you go and rest, come back early the day after tomorrow, and we'll see you in the provincial capital. ”

"Fuck off, it's my daughter."

Zhou Jiao smiled when she saw this, her father could only let go in front of these old brothers, it was really not easy to live, and he was really tired.

After returning to the room, Zhang Guoqing touched her head, "You have a lot of heart." These large factories usually allocate places to their regions and do not recruit openly. ”

Zhou Jiao raised her chin tremblingly, "I know, but veterans are not a priority." Godfather and four uncles always have cronies who retire from the army, which is a big favor. ”

Zhang Guoqing stroked her head funny, "Be careful that your parents-in-law ask you for help!" The bronze lock of the brother's house in the lobby seems to be nesting at home after graduation. ”

"Now I'm checking up and down, I'm cowardly, it's useless for anyone to say." Zhou Jiao smiled noncommittally. Smooth your hair, think of the five calligraphy and paintings at night, and cover your mouth and smile happily.

"Who is the master of the Republic of China?"

Zhou Jiao squeezed her eyes and whispered in his ear, "In the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, one painted a horse and the other painted a shrimp, don't tell me who I don't know." ”

"My daughter-in-law is lucky." Zhang Guoqing said triumphantly, "The few diamonds in it can be used as a crown for you when you pry it in the future." ”
