Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 881 Night Party
Chu Xiangqian didn't care about how fast Jinzhi spent money. No matter how fast she spent money, it wouldn't be as fast as how fast he made money.

Moreover, a girl like Jinzhi who grew up in Beijing, no matter how good she is at spending money, will have a bottom line in her heart.

If she were asked to spend thousands or tens of thousands, she might not be willing to do so.

In this respect, Feifei is very similar to her.

When it was time for lunch, Jin Yitang saw Feifei there too, and he couldn't help but give Chu Xiangqian a blank look.

Chu Xiangqian had already developed the ability to be thick-skinned. He smiled and tried to find a topic to talk about, saying that they were going to Hong Kong Island together in a few days.

Jinzhi and Jinxiu immediately pricked up their ears to listen, although Jin Yitang was still hesitant.

But after more than two months of thinking, I became very clear about it.

If my son-in-law and two daughters all go to Hong Kong Island, it would be boring for me to stay alone in Beijing.

Moreover, Chu Xiangqian also said that after winter is over and the weather in Beijing becomes warmer in spring, he will come back and live here for half a year next year.

Plus there’s a pharmacy on Hong Kong Island, which I heard is quite large and has an annual turnover of several million Hong Kong dollars.

This shop will be passed down to my two daughters and their children in the future, so as their grandfather, of course I have to go over and help take care of it.

Otherwise, a pharmacy that earned millions of Hong Kong dollars every year would have been ruined by his two daughters.

Just thinking about it, Old Man Jin felt that it would definitely affect the relationship between his daughter and son-in-law.

Not to mention, the shop and the money earned every year were directly placed in the names of the two daughters.

In the future, this shop will be enough for my father, his two daughters and their grandchildren to live in Hong Kong Island without having to worry about money.

So Jin Yitang hesitated for just a few seconds before nodding.

"Okay, let's go and take a look, but how do we accommodate Aunt Zhang? Should she go with us, or stay and look after the old house?"

Before Chu Xiangqian could speak, Jinzhi said carelessly, "Anyway, I only give Aunt Zhang 20 yuan a month.

I left her with food coupons and 10 yuan for her to eat every month, and let her stay here to look after the old house."

After Jinzhi finished speaking, she looked at Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian shrugged. It was obvious that Jinzhi didn't like Zhang Ma, so he certainly wouldn't object.

As for Jin Xiu, she listened to Chu Xiangqian completely.

Jin Yitang looked at his two daughters helplessly, sighed and said, "Okay, come back next spring, it's only a few months before or after."

Jin Xiu didn't think there was anything wrong with returning to the capital, but Jin Zhi thought that it would be best if she went to Hong Kong and never came back.

Feifei told me that her man is not only rich in Hong Kong Island, but also owns several large companies.

There are several thousand people working for him.

Also, Chu Xiangqian had mentioned before that there were two large theaters in Hong Kong Island, but they had never been managed.

He also hinted that if he had enough ability, he could manage both theaters.

When Jinzhi thought about becoming the boss lady of a theater related to her interests, she felt that her future days would be wonderful.

After lunch, Chu Xiangqian didn't dare to stay here any longer.

There were two pregnant daughters-in-law at home. They ran away as soon as they returned home. Just imagine how resentful Xue Jinglan and Gangsheng must be.

After listening to Chu Xiangqian's explanation, Jinxiu and Jinzhi knew that Chu Xiangqian was right, but they thought about the last time Chu Xiangqian came back, when they and their sisters worked together with Feifei and Gangsheng to deal with this guy.

But in the end, only Gangsheng got pregnant. She immediately felt the same as Feifei and looked at Chu Xiangqian with resentment in her eyes.

Jin Yitang, who was standing by, secretly thought that girls should not be kept as they grow up, and he actually hoped that his daughter could have a baby sooner.

He simply decided to turn away the sight and not be bothered, so he waved his hand and sent them away, saying, "Okay, you young people go have fun by yourselves, don't stay here, it's annoying just to see you.

If you want to play late, just live in the front.

I have Aunt Zhang to take care of me, don't worry."

Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi were very happy, and Chu Xiangqian certainly had no objection.

I didn’t think there was anything wrong with running back and forth.

But more women means more homes, which is still quite troublesome now.

Since Xue Jinglan and Gangsheng had not rejected Jinxiu and Jinzhi before, it was better for them to live together now than for me to stay out all night.

After saying hello to Old Man Jin, the four of them went out on three bikes.

But not long after, Jinzhi looked at Feifei sitting on the back of Chu Xiangqian's bicycle and suddenly became unhappy.

Fortunately, Letan Park is not far from Qianmen. After chatting and laughing for about ten minutes, you can see Qianmen Street.

Jinzhi could only think to herself that she would sit in the back seat next time.

Xue Jinglan and Gangsheng were a little unhappy about the Jin sisters coming to their house, but they showed enthusiasm on their faces and in words.

In fact, the two of them also understood that their men were Teddy bears, and instead of letting him go out and have fun, it would be better for Jinxiu and Jinzhi to live with them.

What the five women could never have imagined was that Chu Xiangqian had a very low bottom line.

Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e were waiting outside.

Chu Xiangqian still cares a lot about Qin Huairu, the first woman in his life.

And Lou Xiao'e was also the one he poached. His treacherous nature would always come out unconsciously when he was in front of these two women.

I stayed at home well for a long time and thought I could play a few more games of poker in the evening, but I didn’t expect that I lost too much last night.

Jinxiu and Feifei both felt that they needed a night's rest, otherwise they would overwork their brains and would feel even more uncomfortable tomorrow.

As for Jinzhi, this girl talks very tough, but when she is asked to play cards alone with Chu Xiangqian, she immediately becomes timid.

He hugged Feifei and said that he wanted to talk to her about Hong Kong Island.

When Chu Xiangqian looked at Jin Xiu, the girl hurriedly shook her head, quickly caught up with Feifei and Jinzhi, and lived in the west wing together.

Chu Xiangqian looked depressed, but he waited for the three women to leave.

But I felt proud and happy in my heart.

Da Zhuang and Hong Niu had been guarding Chu Jingrong, but Da Zhuang was suddenly stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the house.

Xue Jinglan and Chu Jingrong didn't care, just because Dazhuang was going out to relieve himself.

The intelligence of the two hounds is already the same as that of seven or eight-year-old children. Of course they understand what cleanliness and hygiene are.

But when Dazhuang left the main house in the middle courtyard and walked towards the backyard, he came to the corner of the wall.

Suddenly he jumped up and easily jumped onto the courtyard wall. He looked around and made sure there was no one around before jumping over the wall.

Run quickly towards the Luoguxiang courtyard.

Chu Xiangqian leisurely took out an oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci and drank tea while experiencing, studying and appreciating the painting skills.

It is hard to say about painting skills, and Chu Xiangqian knows in his heart that one cannot reach the level of a painter by just copying and learning.

But the ability to appreciate, besides talent, actually just comes from seeing more.

If you can understand and know exactly one hundred paintings by a certain painter, then you are basically an expert in identifying the works of this painter.

Especially for antique porcelain, the more you look at them, the better you will be able to tell whether they are real or fake just by feeling.

Combined with the base pattern, glaze color, craftsmanship, etc., the probability of holes being made is extremely small.

However, porcelain is actually the easiest to catch the eye, while paintings also require artistic conception.

This thing is the most difficult to imitate, and it may even be impossible to imitate at all. In the end, the imitation will contain the pirate's own artistic conception.

That way it's easier for people to see.

However, no matter how high the technical level of the porcelain craftsman is, he cannot express himself freely like he does when painting landscapes or oil paintings.

Moreover, each firing is done in one kiln. It is mass-produced, so forget about the artistry.

Of course, most of the porcelain fired in the official kiln was either not fired well or not good enough. The best ones were selected and the others were smashed, and this porcelain was also a work of art.

After a long time, it becomes an antique.

Craftsmen are also artists and have artistic qualities, but their paintings are very different from those of painters.

Therefore, porcelain is difficult to imitate, but once it is imitated very well, the probability of making holes is also very high.

Many veteran collectors and appraisal masters have ruined their entire lifelong reputation just because they made a mistake in making a hole in porcelain.

Jade is the easiest item to tell whether it is real or fake, and jade imitations are also the most common.

After a few decades, with the advancement of computer and printing technology, inscriptions on calligraphy and paintings have become a major problem.

Inscriptions and postscripts are very important in the appraisal of calligraphy and paintings. There are often dozens of them on a famous painting.

Many collectors like to leave their own seals on paintings.

The most famous one is Qianlong, and he was also the one who was scolded the most in later generations because he liked to stamp his seals on famous paintings.

He is an emperor, and one of the most famous emperors in the history of the Celestial Empire.

Naturally, I came into contact with a lot of paintings.

Let people curse him all they want, his achievements will be passed down through his paintings.

From this point of view, they are smarter than anyone else.

While Chu Xiangqian was looking at the oil painting, Da Zhuang appeared outside the courtyard of Luoguxiang in just over ten minutes.

He called out a few times toward the yard.

It was the end of 64 AD, and there was no more food shortage in the capital.

Even during the three difficult years, the capital never ran out of food.

Therefore, the number of dogs in the past two years has increased a little compared to the past, but it is still far from an overabundance.

Moreover, many people of this era like to eat delicious meat.

Although Chu Xiangqian himself likes dogs, he will not refuse delicious meat.

People like him are pragmatic, or rational and conservative.

It won’t be good if it is less, and it won’t be good if it is more.

I hate people who steal dogs, and I also don't like people who regard dogs as more important than their family members.

People living near the courtyard don’t care at all about the dogs barking after 9 o’clock in the evening.

However, because I love China, I love the people and I love Qiu, I am quite familiar with Da Zhuang's voice.

Especially Ai Qiu, the little girl often went to the Qianmen courtyard to play with her sister-in-law and nephew.

After having more contact with Dazhuang and Hongniu, of course I am familiar with their calls.

But Second Aunt suppressed her directly.

If Chu Xiangqian came back with his two dogs, he would definitely knock on the door.

Yan Laokou was very positive about opening the door for Chu Xiangqian.

The guy even got up and went out to look, but when he saw no one and no dog, he went home muttering to himself.

Then Da Zhuang called a few more times, and Qin Huairu was sure that he must have let one of the two hunting dogs call him, just like before.

At this time, Jia Zhang no longer cared about the matter between her daughter-in-law and Chu Xiangqian.

He even took the initiative to cover for her for the sake of money, dried meat, dried fish, rice and flour.

Although Banggeng and Xiaodang have grown up, they have always thought that their biological mother sometimes has to work night shifts.

The two children were lucky because the Jia family's life had improved, and their mother had long been the head of the family.

The influence of Jia Zhang was also much smaller.

To put it bluntly, if Jia Zhang had enough food, drink and money, her personality wouldn't be so strange.

After getting used to going to work, Qin Huairu would bring back delicious food from time to time, so she was definitely still lazy, but not like in the TV dramas where she did nothing.

If she dared not cook dinner, Qin Huairu would call the two children out and have them eat the food she brought back outside.

On the contrary, Bang Geng would sometimes secretly save some meat and bring it back for Jia Zhang to eat.

When he was little, Bang Geng had a lot of problems, but at least he knew how to be close to his family.

When he grew up, due to factors such as work, marriage, single-parent family, and the fact that he was led astray by Jia Zhang since childhood, it is no wonder that he became selfish.

Of course, some kids are born cold and indifferent.

Qin Huairu was certain that it must be Chu Xiangqian's two hounds calling him, so he couldn't sit still.

He hurriedly said to Jia Zhang, "Mom, I remembered that I forgot to tell Xiao'e something. I will sleep at her side tonight."

Jia Zhang gave her daughter-in-law a blank look, but she had no idea where Lou Xiao'e lived.

If you want to follow Qin Huairu, who is riding a bicycle but can't catch him, and if you want to catch him in the act, you have to know where Lou Xiao'e lives.

However, after Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu became as close as sisters, they would often come to the Siheyuan for dinner.

Jia Zhang also saw that the girl always brought bacon, fruit and food coupons when she came to her house.

There is never a lack of smiles on his face.

Moreover, Qin Huairu deliberately asked Lou Xiao'e to occasionally spend a few cents or one or two dollars to take away the copper coins that Jia Zhang had collected from outside.

Now, not only Jia Zhang likes this girl, but Banggeng and Xiaodang also like to have her visit.

When Qin Huairu had packed up and dressed up, before leaving, Jia Zhang suddenly said, "Huairu, Banggeng is almost 10 years old.

He will grow up in a few years, so shouldn’t we think about preparing a room for him as soon as possible?

Let him live there by himself, so that he can have a house when he gets married in the future and it will be easier for him to find a wife?"

Qin Huairu was stunned. She had never thought about this before.

But think about it, after a few years, Banggeng is really not suitable to live with me, Xiaodang and my mother-in-law.

I couldn't help but think of Chu Xiangqian's small courtyard in Maoer Hutong.

However, if he asked Chu Xiangqian for that yard, based on his understanding of that bastard, he would definitely not agree.

During those difficult times, you could eat whatever you wanted, but you were not allowed to take any food home.

Chu Xiangqian not only hates his mother-in-law, but also looks down on his own two children.

Qin Huairu could understand it. After all, the child's surname was Jia, and people of that era thought that this was raising a child for someone else.

It would be strange if you could agree to it.

So Qin Huairu directly rejected this idea, so as not to make Chu Xiangqian unhappy.

It can be seen that after having another man, the child is no longer the only one.

As long as it doesn't cross Qin Huairu's bottom line, it's okay for Banggeng to suffer a little.

Moreover, Qin Huairu herself had money, but had no place to spend it, so naturally she saved more and more.

Not to mention buying a single room of 70, 80 or 10 square meters, even a small yard would be bought without hesitation.

But even though I have money, I can’t buy a house, and I’m not even allowed to trade.

He was frowning and wondering whether he should ask Chu Xiangqian for help. Anyway, he didn't need to pay any money, he just needed to find some connections and rent a single room.

Then I heard Jia Zhang say, "Didn't Zhao Daheng from the Zhao family in the front yard go to work at the police station two years ago? When I got home this afternoon, I heard that the boy was assigned to the unit dormitory."

Qin Huairu now truly understood Jia Zhang's thoughts.
