I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 331 The Guqin of the Ming Dynasty

Song Wu never thought that one day he would have office passion in the 60s.

He had never dared to imagine such a thing, and it was impossible to think of it. However, as he learned more about this society and this era, and had more contact with the people around him, he realized that people and life are alive, no matter what historical conditions and era background, Human desires always exist.

It may be suppressed or distorted, but it must always be vented and expressed through certain forms.

And he also completely understood one thing, that is, people are really different. The life of feuding families, intrigues, and folk fireworks in the courtyard house is not the most complete reality of this society and era.

It still has a lot of materialistic and dark things, but under the turbulent tide, they are just the waves in it, not the mainstream?

Therefore, the more I interact with Sun Yuying and understand her, the more I feel that she is actually a poor person. Many things in her heart also need time and tenderness to slowly soothe.

Song Wu touched Sun Yuying's pretty red face and said to her with a smile: "I can't stay here for too long, I have to go out to work."

Sun Yuying said dissatisfied: "You are just riding a tricycle to collect rags, but you really take it seriously."

Song Wu smiled and said: "Collecting rags is a very meaningful thing in my opinion."

Sun Yuying said: "What's the meaning?"

Jin San looked at Song Wu again and nodded, saying: "The guqin is not easy to find. The key is that everyone who has it hides it deeply, and it is habitually kept for a long time. Generally, it is not exchanged with others, because the guqin is placed there. Everyone is a piano player, and it is often passed down from generation to generation."

Song Wu also nodded and said: "Please help me pay attention to it. It's best if you have it. If you don't have it, we won't force it."

Song Wu looked at his back as he turned away, and said with a smile: "It was Daping who asked me to come. She swore to me that Jin San's people do things properly and speak nicely. But being famous is not as good as meeting each other, Daping said That’s not true either.”

Song Wu said: "I won't talk too much about anything else, just the impact on culture. By receiving old things and books, I gained a lot of knowledge and knowledge, and I have a lot of influence on our country and this city." Learn more about history.”

Song Wu did not beat around the bush and said: "First find a guqin. I want the music scores or anything related to the guqin."

This man's surname is Jin, people often call him Jin San. He works in a cultural relics store. He is a proper old expert and an absolute expert in old objects.

Song Wu smiled: "That's right. I also came into contact with it through waste collection and found it to be quite interesting and valuable. But I don't understand it, and I don't have the patience to learn it, so I can only pick it up and play."

"Hey, I thought you were a rough guy, but I didn't expect you to be a cultured person. From what you said, you mean you also like to collect old things?"

Song Wu was worried about where to find the guqin? As a result, someone gave him a pillow when he was dozing off, so he quickly asked happily: "Is it safe or not?" Safety always comes first in his mind, and everything else comes second.

Sun Yuying glanced at him sideways and said, "Don't worry, he is such a coward. It's my own fault and has nothing to do with them."

Sun Yuying laughed and said: "I see, you are just joining in the fun. However, since you are addicted to food, you might as well join in the fun. Why don't I introduce them to you, and then you want to collect something?" Just go to them and show me my name, they won’t dare to trick you casually, I guarantee they can get you something good.”

Song Wu came out of the office. After lunch, he went to find the cultural relics store where Jin San worked at the address Sun Yuying said in the afternoon. The man in Jinshan had a sad face and looked to be in his 50s. The person is not looking straight, he is looking sideways with his hands behind his hands, and his speech is a bit unclear, but he can still be understood.

Jin San stopped, and when he turned around, his mournful eyebrows were flattened, and his face was full of smiles. He said happily: "You told me earlier, Daping asked you to come. Do I think so much?" Tell me, what object are you looking for?"

Song Yizheng said eloquently: "I'm not timid, but I don't want to take advantage." He knew in his heart that no matter how cautious you are at this time, you can't be too cautious. If you are not careful and think nothing will happen, you will definitely be in trouble. No matter how high you may be today, you may be knocked to the ground overnight.

Sun Yuying introduced Song Wu to a serious person. He's not the kind of person who does things secretly by himself. Moreover, he also has a serious official status.

"Come on, who are you trying to coax with your plain talk?" Sun Yuying giggled again.

When he saw that Song Wu was an unfamiliar person, he became wary and said carelessly: "If there are any business matters, you have to go to the store and talk about them. If it's about life matters, we can't talk about it. So, man Son, let’s see you later.”

Jin San laughed loudly: "I just said that it was not easy to get things. I didn't say there weren't any. There really is, but it's not a Qin from the Tang and Song Dynasties. It's just a Minqin, but it's also a real Qin. It's a famous piano. It happened that the person wanted to sell it, so he asked me to take a look at it. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

Song Wu heard that he could go and have a look, so he nodded and agreed, so Jin San went back to the cultural relics store to say hello, and the two of them rode bicycles to the West City together.

On the way, Song Wu and Jin San were walking and chatting on their bicycles, and they also learned a lot about guqin from Jin San. Only then did he realize that after a fierce historical and social vicissitudes, there were very few guqins that had survived, especially the famous ones that had been circulated in an orderly manner.

Jin San said that as far as he knows, there are currently very few people learning to play the piano. Many of the original good pianos have been lost, and no good new pianos have been produced.

Through Jin San’s introduction, Song Wu learned that currently, Guqin is roughly divided into three grades on the market.

Ranked first are the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasty royal clan instruments, which are the most popular and popular instruments. However, these instruments are rare and hard to see, and are generally kept in high esteem. ;

The second level, which is slightly inferior to the first level above, is the musical instruments made by scholars in the Ming Dynasty. There are still a certain number of them left. This kind of relatives is rare, but you can still see them. When they saw the instruments today, they probably belonged to this type.

Finally, there are the guqins from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The quality is far inferior to the first two categories, and the quantity is relatively large. However, they are often mixed in quality and require people who really understand how to play qin to select them.

When they arrived at the place, what Song Wu didn't expect was that the person they were looking for turned out to be an old lady, or more appropriately a middle-aged or older woman.

Jin San said: "This is Mr. Erlian." Song Wu quickly stepped forward to greet him. This woman felt very elegant.

Jin San introduced their purpose to Mr. Erlian, but she did not let the two of them enter the hospital. Instead, she stood at the door and looked at Song Wu up and down.

Then he asked softly: "You want to buy a piano. Why do you want to buy a piano?"

Song Wu nodded first, and then said: "I bought the piano to give it to a friend."

"Does your friend know how to play the piano?"

Song Wu nodded, "Yes. I'm learning piano now."

"Who did you learn the piano from?" Mr. Erlian always had a calm tone and a calm face.

Song Wu recalled the names of her teachers that Thea mentioned, and then said: "It seems that there are Mr. Guan, Mr. Cha, Wang Di...,"

Mr. Erlian finally changed his face, looked at Song Wu again in surprise, and then said seriously: "I thought you wouldn't talk nonsense. Let's do it this way. If you buy the piano, I can sell it to you, but I'll sell it to you first." My friend brought him over and I’ll talk to him.”

This,... Song Wu didn't expect to buy something, but he still picked the buyer. Judging from Mr. Erlian's attitude, if he doesn't like Thea, he won't sell the piano no matter how much it costs. Alas, this industry is troublesome, and there are always many inexplicable things to pay attention to.

When they came out of Mr. Erlian's house, no, I really can't say that. They didn't enter the courtyard at all. They could only say that after bidding farewell to Mr. Erlian and leaving, Jin San said to Song Wu at the next intersection: "Things like today Son, it often happens, especially when you buy a guqin, you are particularly concerned about these things, so it depends on fate and you can’t force it. Tomorrow you can bring your friends over directly and let me know if it works or not. I won’t tell you if it doesn’t work. I'll find something else for you. As for the other things you want, I'll take care of them for you. That's it for today. I'll leave first. I have to go to work when I get back."

Song Wu grabbed him and said, "You have been running with me for half the afternoon, and you have to go have a meal anyway."

Jin San smiled and cupped his hands, and said: "It will be necessary when things are done. Forget it for now, I really have to go back to work. I don't dare to take too long to say hello. I am very busy now."

Since he said so, Song Wu didn't force it, and the two of them said goodbye.

I can't go home yet, so I have to go to Xia, make an appointment with her, and find a suitable time to meet Mr. Erlian together.

He estimated the time and realized that Thea might be in the courtyard near the Huguo Temple at the moment, so he simply rode his bike to go there to have a look. If she was really there, he wouldn't have to run to Haidian anymore.

When Song Wu arrived at the elegant courtyard where the Guqin Research Institute was located. After finding Thea who was playing the piano inside, he learned for the first time that the teacher Wang Di mentioned by Thea was actually a young lesbian who was at most a few years older than Thea.

Wang Di wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, a very lean haircut, a plaid top with small lapels, and black cloth shoes, giving him an elegant air.

Thea introduced Song Wu to Wang Di, and Wang Di just nodded and smiled at him without saying anything.

Thea asked Song Wu: "Why did you find yourself here at this time?"
