Chapter 452: Banquet Turmoil (5)
He likes to watch Xiao Nai's women get into all kinds of trouble. However, how could Xiao Nai ...... Suddenly here? He didn't even show up at this banquet when he did. This woman called "Mu Li", was brought over by Xiao Nai?
After all, Xiao Yi didn't know about Mu Li's stay at the Li family last night, so he thought that Mu Li and Xiao Nai were together last night, and even thought that the two of them were attending the banquet at the same time, but it was just a burst in the middle. But at this time, when Xiao Yi turned his head, he found that Xiao Nai was looking at Mu Li with a kind of scrutinizing and inquiring gaze, and he didn't seem to have the intention of stepping forward to help at this time, but his posture was somewhat similar to himself, that is: he was completely a bystander's sense of déjà vu, and he was looking forward to the plot that should develop next.
He's exploring, scrutinizing!
Odd!
Xiao Yi scratched his head, a little puzzled. According to his understanding of Xiao Nai, when this woman is in trouble, it stands to reason that he should step forward to help her out of the siege or take on this trouble.
With this man's character, he couldn't stand idly by!
chose to sit still and watch a good show, does he think ...... Does Mu Li have a way to solve it?
Xiao Yi turned her gaze to Mu Li again, but she didn't see her asking for help from herself and Xiao Nai, the two Xiao family members. The guilt on that Nizi's face now does not seem to be fake, and she obviously has no intention of evading responsibility, she took the white porcelain fragment in the old man's hand with her hand at this time, and after looking at it carefully, she said to the old man with some embarrassment:
"Or, Abel, I'll exchange this for this porcelain with you?"
Mu Li took off an accessory from his neck. Although the collar of her dress was neither high nor low, the accessories she wore around her neck were still hidden in her clothes. The necklace that Mu Li took out was not to match her clothes, it was originally her own thing that she carried with her, not specially prepared to dress up this dress. The chain of the necklace is actually very ordinary, not ordinary, it is a jade bi hanging at the lower end of the chain. The jade was a birthday gift from her aunt on her eighteenth birthday, and it was also an antique. Because this jade match the color of the neckline of her school uniform, she usually wears it all the time in school.
Right now......
I can only be sorry for my aunt, and I will try to use the birthday gift she gave me to see if I can solve the problem of this antique porcelain vase.
Mu Li can see that this Abel doesn't value money at all, what he cherishes more is rare antiques!
"Huh?" When Jian Jia saw that Mu Li took out the necklace that she usually wore around her neck every day when she wore a school uniform, and was even taken out by a few people in their dormitory who always complained about whether she could change her style, she was subconsciously shocked. It's also too ......
As soon as Mu Li's necklace was taken out, most people began to look at her necklace. The chain is made of a rope with a unique weaving technique, and it is quite delicate, and the color is also somewhat rare. Naturally, it won't be worth much. But the young lady was able to offer to exchange this object for porcelain, and it is clear that what she meant was probably that this object was also an antique. And the jade bi hanging on the chain is the point she wants to express, and everyone has already seen it at this time. Because...... That jade does look very old, but it does look like an antique!
Jade is rare! At the very least, it is a style that they have never seen in China. Moreover, it is relatively simple, it is a jade ring, and the jade body is carved with grain patterns. If you only consider its value from an aesthetic point of view, it is quite attractive, but it is not a lot of amazing jewelry.
Xiao Yi took a step closer, in fact, he couldn't help but want to go up and see what kind of jade it was. Although he doesn't understand antiques, he understands jade. He has a certain level of identification skills in real jade, fake jade and what kind of jade.
But he obviously didn't have this opportunity, because at this time, the old man was carefully examining the jade in the light.
After the old man saw it, the guests had seen that the expression on his face had gradually changed, and the look of indignation had faded unconsciously, and everyone had noticed that the look in his eyes had been replaced by a rather obvious astonishment.
"Brother, you can take a look for me." The old man suddenly trembled his hands and handed the jade to another old man of his age next to him. It was a friend with whom he had just talked about antiques and calligraphy and painting. It's not that he doesn't see anything, it's that he wants to ask for proof of his heart's judgment.
The friend nodded, took the hand, and nodded to the old man after reading it.
He didn't speak, but nodded his head to tell the old man: there was no need to doubt his own identification! Because, his judgment is the same!
This is obviously a very tacit understanding between the two. But the person next to him didn't necessarily see the interaction between them clearly, and another friend stepped forward and said curiously: "I also know a little bit, I'll take a look." ”
"Okay."
As a result, this jade was passed on in the hands of those who knew how to do it. The cheeky Xiao Yi also made such a request and got such an opportunity. Of course, he didn't know anything about antiques, he just judged what kind of jade it was. When Xiao Yi returned the jade to the old man, he already had a rough guess in his heart. Although he is not completely sure, he already has six or seven percent of the judgment. Judging from the quality of jade, this is already a very valuable piece of jade. As for the chronology......
"This young lady, you ...... thing" The old man suddenly looked at Mu Li very seriously and said, "It's a little too heavy." I'm ...... Twenty bottles can't match the value of your piece of jade. ”
As he spoke, he was busy returning the jade to Mu Li. But his gaze was reluctant to take away from the jade, and his hands were still trembling slightly. can hold the jade with one hand, but he solemnly holds it with both hands. This subtle movement shows that he is definitely a person who loves antiques and is almost crazy. At the same time, it also made people who didn't know how to do it more curious about Mu Li's jade. Many people recognized this old man, he was a master of antiques in Huaxia Kingdom, and he had obviously identified the authenticity of this jade and its value. At this time, such an attitude must be that the thing that the girl in front of her took out was really able to lose money, and his porcelain vase was not a fool or something.
"This ......" Mu Li knew that the old man had already judged the value of her jade as soon as he heard it. This jade is the jade of the national period of about 2,000 years ago in the Dragon Kingdom, and the jade quality is Hetian green and white jade, which is a kind of traditional jade ritual vessel in the Dragon Kingdom. Just looking at the age, the value of this jade is already greater than the value of the porcelain, and Mu Li also knows this. It's not that she's a master who doesn't care about this value at all, but she is willing to use jade to compensate the old man, and one of the reasons is that she can see that the old man is indeed a person who is obsessed with collecting antiques. In his eyes, whether it was the porcelain or the jade, she thought, it should be priceless.
"In that case, I'll ......," Mu Li was just about to take back Yubi and say something.
"Hey, wait......" The old man suddenly reluctantly withdrew his hand.
"......" Mu Li was stunned, and saw the old man look embarrassed. The anger was gone, but he coughed at Mu Li very embarrassedly, and said to her with a red face: "This ...... Girl, otherwise, I won't worry about your responsibility for breaking my things. You just make a price and sell this jade to my old man? Look at this, I'm really going to accept your apology, it's worth a lot, and I'm embarrassed. At my age, I can't pull my face down to bully a little girl like you. ”
"Ahem, cough ......" When the people next to him heard it, someone immediately helped their foreheads, and someone coughed dryly. Obviously, they all thought the old man's reaction and change were really funny. It seems that this jade has completely taken a fancy to him, and his love will not be inferior to that of the porcelain that he has broken.
"Yes." When Mu Li heard this, he agreed, and hurriedly replied: "Uncle, you can just evaluate it yourself and give it to you." ”
"......" and the crowd all overturned.
This...... This...... This girl is too ...... It's too polite that you don't understand, right?
They also thought that this girl would say something like "I broke your things and should be compensated", or "I don't need to be embarrassed" or something like that, showing her kind and sympathetic side to the elderly. After all, she was indeed sincere when she apologized just now.
Who will know, the old man said that he didn't blame her. She's really ...... Without even an emotional transition, he began to smile and nod and say okay?
But the old man was obviously not upset by this. The reason is naturally because he can confidently hold Mu Li's jade bi in his hand and not return it to her. At the same time, he asked for a phone call from Mu Li, and also left his phone number to Mu Li. Then, he took out a check from his pocket, wrote a number on it, and handed it to Mu Li. No one can see exactly what the numbers are on the check, but anyone can be sure that it will not be a small transaction.
And so it was settled. The old man was not ready to pursue the loss of another painting with Mu Li. But when he looked at the painting he was holding, there was still obvious regret and heartache in his eyes. When Mu Li saw it, he took the painting and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'll contact you tomorrow." I'll pay you for the loss of this painting. You don't take advantage of me, and I can't take advantage of you and bully you, an old man. ”
The old man didn't intend to ask for this remnant painting that made his heart ache, and when he saw that Mu Li took it, he only thought that she was going to use it to estimate the value of the original painting, and he didn't stop it, nodded indifferently and said, "Okay." ”
After speaking, he didn't pay attention to Mu Li, and scattered the crowded place here, and he was ready to appreciate the jade he got today.
As soon as the old man left, most of the guests began to disperse.
And Mu Li and Jian Jia finally got the opportunity to leave.
"Ah Li......" Li Zijun immediately wanted to catch up.
Mu Li took Jian Jia and quickened his pace.
She is in front, and Li Zijun is behind.
And behind, there is the "Liu Dong" who has been staring at him with very lewd eyes.
Mu Wei felt a chill at the bottom, and after speeding up and walking a few steps, she suddenly felt a pair of big hands holding her right hand when she passed a certain place.
Her left hand was holding Jian Jia.
