Siheyuan: I am Du Shouyi

Chapter 70 Uncle Xu

Du Shouyi was complained by Xiaobei a little on the way home from get off work. He was about to explain it when he was preparing for dinner, but he didn't expect to see Li Jixiang at the entrance of the alley.

"Lao Li, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Li Jixiang couldn't help feeling a little dazed when he saw a blue parrot parked on Du Shouyi's shoulder and a beautiful girl beside him.Did this young master just come back from get off work?

But it didn't take long for him to wake up, and he leaned forward and whispered: "Master, there are good things."

Du Shouyi understood his reason for coming, and said, "Then let's go into the room and talk, it's time to recognize the door."

When they arrived at Nanfang, Du Shouyi introduced him to Gong Xiaobei with reservations.Just talking about a friend I met in the cultural and entertainment industry, those woolen yarns were also handed over to his wife to knit sweaters.

Li Jixiang looked a little weird.Gong Xiaobei was inexperienced and didn't think about "husband" at all, but there were a few small question marks in his heart.

But after listening to Du Shouyi's introduction, she felt relieved.There are not many friends who can let Du Shouyi take the initiative to lead him into the house.

Seeing her scrambling to pour water, Du Shouyi smiled and said, "Don't be so busy, you can have a meal at the deaf grandma's tonight, and Lao Li and I will have a drink here. Lao Li, sit down for a while, and I will see you off." She, by the way, prepare to order some food and drink."

When Du Shouyi came back, he had a few extra plates and a bottle of Moutai in his hand.He closed the door of the room, poured two glasses of wine and said: "Fill up first, and then drink. I've been drinking this wine for a long time, and I haven't found a drinking buddy. You just happened to be lucky today."

The food and wine are all top-grade, with the taste of royal meals in the palace.But Li Jixiang didn't ask which restaurant it was.Don't inquire about the master's affairs, this is a rule he has cultivated since he was a child.

After taking a sip of the wine, he couldn't wait to take out a small cloth bag from his arms, put it in front of Du Shouyi and said, "Master, I just collected it today. I'm really worried about leaving it outside. I brought it to you overnight." .”

Du Shouyi opened the cloth bag, recognized it immediately, and said, "Chicken cup?"

"Exactly. Ming Chenghua, absolutely right."

Du Shouyi was startled instead.There are only [-] complete Chenghua Doucai chicken cups in the whole world, and he has one-sixteenth of them?

After carefully admiring it for a while, he asked, "Old Li? How did you find out that this is not a post-imitation, can you tell me about it?"

"Of course." Li Jixiang said, holding this cup, he explained the identification of Chenghua Doucai in detail, and Du Shouyi suddenly felt enlightened.

There are many teachings in the old porcelain. It is useless to read the book alone. You must read it firsthand. Someone said.

Given a rare opportunity, Du Shouyi wandered around the back room again and picked up some porcelain calligraphy and paintings.These are all collected by himself in the past few months, and today I just asked Li Jixiang to appraise them together.

But he didn't dare to show Mi Fu's handwriting, Qianlong's finger puller, and Jinsinan's wooden dummy.These few things are of great importance and cannot be reckless.

This meal lasted three or four hours, and it was past ten o'clock in the evening when he sent Li Jixiang away.Du Shouyi came to the north room without dispelling the alcohol. This is Moutai, and he was a little bit reluctant.

As expected, Gong Xiaobei was still waiting for him. When he saw him coming in and was about to speak, Du Shouyi quickly gestured for her to keep silent.

After confirming that there was no one around, he asked Erha to stand guard in the courtyard, then took out the jade bear, jadeite finger, and the newly acquired chicken bowl cups and lined them up, offering treasures and saying: "Xiaobei, come and have a look." , These are all treasures."

Gong Xiaobei was immediately attracted by the emerald green finger, picked it up and looked at it for a while and said, "Is this what Lao Li just sent?"

"Yes, these are all great treasures." As he spoke, he started with the fingers and gave Gong Xiaobei a detailed introduction of each source.

Gong Xiaobei listened with relish, and said, "Then these are all national treasures?"

"It's not that serious, but they are all valuable." Du Shouyi calculated, and said, "It's hard to say how valuable it is now. I prepared these for future generations. When our grandchildren grow up, I guess these will be enough for them to eat." It's been in a few lifetimes."

"so much?"

"Well, Shengshi Antique, I remember telling you the truth in the middle?"

"Well, I know, but."

The concept of several lifetimes is too vague, Gong Xiaobei is a little speechless.Because she doesn't know how crazy the value-added of these things will be in the future, which a normal person can't even imagine now.

The next morning.

"Ding, the host's reward for signing in today is, 'Yanjing Hotel' Kung Pao Chicken x10."

"Sichuan cuisine has been served for two consecutive days. The system is doing something." Du Shouyi sighed after seeing the reward.

Yanjing Restaurant's 'Kung Pao Chicken' is a famous dish of Master Luo Guorong.When a foreign head of state came to visit, he ordered two copies, which is extremely rare in such occasions as state banquets.

Master Luo's Kung Pao Chicken is made from the drumsticks of young hens, which are cut into small cubes and fried after removing the membrane and tendons.How big can a chick hen be?Therefore, at least eight to ten chicken legs are used for this dish, which takes a lot of effort.

'Bombing Tokyo' and 'Kung Pao Chicken' Du Shouyi are not going to use them casually. The system seems to be a bit targeted these days, so he needs to prepare a little bit.

At noon, Du Shouyi was sure he had found the answer.

"Shouyi, Uncle Xu is coming to Kyoto for a meeting this week, and he said he would come to see me on Sunday."

Du Shouyi didn't know who Uncle Xu was, so he listened quietly.After Gong Xiaobei finished speaking, he finally understood that this Uncle Xu was a close friend of Xiaobei's father, and he had been working in the south after liberation.

After Xiaobei's parents passed away that year, this Uncle Xu was ready to adopt Xiaobei.With Gu Ling going to Beijing, this matter did not happen.Otherwise, Gong Xiaobei is probably living in a certain city in the south now.

"This Uncle Xu is from Sichuan, right?" Du Shouyi asked.

"No, it was my father's childhood. But it seems that he went to Chongqing during the Anti-Japanese War and lived there for a long time."

"Oh, I see. On Sunday, I will invite Uncle Xu to have a light meal at home at noon. I will prepare it, don't worry."

The system seemed to value Uncle Xu very much, but now Du Shouyi was looking forward to it.

In the next two days, Du Shouyi signed Master Luo's 'Qingshui Cabbage' and 'Roasted Recipe' consecutively.In this way, a table of four dishes of meat and vegetables is assembled, and all of them are Master Luo's famous dishes.

At about eleven o'clock on Sunday, Du Shouyi finally saw 'Uncle Xu'.

In order to keep a low profile, Gong Xiaobei deliberately went to the north alley, and welcomed Uncle Xu in from the back door.When Uncle Xu just stepped into the small north room, Du Shouyi almost blurted out: 'Great leader'? !

This Uncle Xu is the leader who asked Sha Zhu to come to cook. How can there be such a coincidence in this world? !

Seeing Du Shouyi's surprised look, the big leader nodded slightly at him.Now his perception of Du Shouyi was complicated.

Gu Ling specially asked him to meet last night, and told her everything she knew. The 'big leader' was at a loss after hearing it.What kind of character is this?Why does it sound so unreal?

When the two looked at each other, Gong Xiaobei introduced, "Uncle Xu, this is my partner, Du Shouyi."

Du Shouyi quickly gathered his thoughts and greeted obediently: "Hello, Uncle Xu, my name is Du Shouyi."

"Hello, Comrade Du."

The 'big leader' stretched out his hand and shook him enthusiastically.

"Hello, Uncle Xu."

At this time, a weird voice sounded, and the 'big leader' realized that there was only a big blue parrot standing on a wooden stake beside him.

"This is a macaw raised by Shouyi, named Erha. It's so smart." Gong Xiaobei introduced with a smile.

Uncle Xu had already heard Gu Ling mention this bird yesterday, so he was not too surprised to see it now.

"Erha, go to the courtyard and watch, don't let outsiders in." Du Shouyi ordered.

Erha flapped his wings and flew out immediately.Then, he stood on the wooden stake in the yard. Uncle Xu was amazed by this scene.

　I always feel a little uneasy in my heart, and feel that I have missed someone when I thank you. 'Stop the Wolf', 'No. [-] Old Nie', I'm guilty.

　　And those book friends who are left out, those book friends named with Arabic numerals, I hate mathematics, I may have ignored you unintentionally, I am guilty.

　　Add a new chapter and apologize to everyone.
