Chapter 181 Dowry Box

Chapter 181. The dowry box

The cold and smooth touch came from his wrist, and Ren Ping couldn't help but feel confused and at a loss.

According to what Yan Jiang said that day, the Tianyantong-Shanhe Baojian competition is divided into two stages, that is, all the elites who have passed the selection and recommendation to enter the final circle will have to compete twice.

The first is the qualifying competition. Each person chooses one of the seven major antique categories as their main item, and competes for rankings. Only those who rank before the test can advance to the internal competition.

Most people would consider entering the inner competition as their first goal, but Ren Ping is different. So far, he is not even sure which category to choose as his main event.

It stands to reason that Koizumi and Porcelain are the best, but some time ago, I studied miscellaneous things in depth, which is not bad, but it is very laborious.

"Ms. Wang, I don't mind cooperating with Zhiyunzhai..."

"Really, do you agree?" Wang Pei was surprised and delighted.

"However, I am not sure yet whether I will compete with porcelain as the main event."

Ren Ping followed closely.

Wang Pei was taken aback when he heard the words, and then suddenly realized: "Yes, I heard that you are also proficient in Guquan. The Mingquan Xiaotianlong, which has been rumored in the capital for a long time ago, was made by you. So you want to choose Guquan as the main item?"

"Not necessarily."

"It's not porcelain, and it's not Koizumi. Are you proficient in other categories?"

Ren Ping shook his head, but did not answer.

Fortunately, Wang Pei reacted quickly, and immediately thought that there were other people who had talked with Ren Ping about participating in the competition.

After thinking about it, although I was slightly disappointed, I still smiled:

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Ren, it would be the best if we are lucky enough to cooperate at that time. Even if we can't, Zhiyunzhai and I have made friends with you. No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as an acquaintance."

Ren Ping nodded: "Naturally, Ms. Wang is also going to compete?"

"Of course, but I am not as extensive as Mr. Ren. With porcelain as the main item, I will strive to enter the inner competition first. This has been planned long ago,"

"When I arrive in the capital at the end of the year, I just need to say hello, and I will definitely take Mr. Ren to go shopping. Not to mention, the capital is not comparable to other places in terms of industry news alone."

"Okay, then thank you very much."

Ren Ping thought that he had finally found a guide in the capital, and he felt a big stone in his heart. He wanted to clasp his fists to express thanks, but when he raised his hand, he found that his wrist was still in the opponent's hand.

Wang Pei also suddenly woke up, holding on to it for a while, and letting go immediately, he couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and slowly let go without a trace.

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Wang Pei took out a piece of porcelain from a black brocade bag beside him.

The latter had already been sent by Ren Ping to Renrenzhai's display rack, but this dowry box was still in Wang Pei's hands.

After she took it out, she pushed it in front of Ren Ping and said with a smile:

"Return to the original owner."

Ren Ping was taken aback: "Miss Wang, why be polite, I have already given you this item."

"Were you serious?"

"Of course, firstly, I accidentally broke something of yours, and secondly, you came to help me. This thing can be regarded as my thank you gift to you, which is not an exaggeration."

Wang Pei pursed his lips lightly after hearing this, and the corners of his mouth turned up, not knowing whether it was joy or hesitation.

Ping'er on the side couldn't help it anymore and glared at Ren Ping:
"What nonsense are you talking about, why does our lady accept your things?"

"What? Why can't you accept it?"

Seeing his blank expression, Ping'er was annoyed and pointed at the dowry box on the table:

"Fortunately, you are also an expert here. Don't you know the origin of this thing? Don't you know that in ancient times, the dowry box was usually a dowry given by the natal family to the daughter? Can it be given away casually? You give it to our lady What's the matter?"

When the words fell to the ground, Ren Ping suddenly realized that, as Ping'er said, this kind of boudoir stuff is indeed not something that can be given away casually. Before that, he only considered whether it was true or false, but he forgot about it for a while.

On the other side, Wang Pei still didn't appreciate Ping'er's kind reminder, and gave her a look, blaming her for meddling in her own business.

Ren Ping said sorry repeatedly while collecting the makeup box.

I wanted to change my words and say I would give that rouge box, but it was not right at first thought, it became more and more a gift between lovers, but I couldn’t think of any suitable gift for a while, so I couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed:
"I'm sorry, Ms. Wang, when the opportunity is right in the future, a generous gift will be sent to Zhiyunzhai in the capital."

"No, if Mr. Ren is sincere, this one will do."

"This one? Seriously?"

Ren Ping was almost confused by these two people.

Wang Pei pursed his lips and smiled: "That's the old calendar from so many years ago, who cares now? Besides, as long as you sincerely sent me, you've already made a move. How can you go back?"

"Okay, as long as you don't mind." Ren Ping pushed the thing forward again.

"Miss!"

Seeing Wang Pei take back the things honestly and bluntly, Ping'er on the side looked contemptuous, thinking that this love brain, even taking the dowry box, is this considered a private life?

"Miss, aren't you afraid of being questioned by your wife when you take this thing back?"

"Interrogation? What is there to interrogate?"

"Stop pretending to be ignorant. What did your wife ask you to do? Looking for talents is not about choosing a son-in-law!"

"What are you talking about? Keep your voice down!"

"Don't think I don't know, you just didn't plan to return it at all, you have to let me break this layer of joints and then do it again, scheming bitch..."

"Shut up! Damn girl!"

Forcibly covering Ping'er's mouth, before she revealed more of her secrets, Wang Pei picked up the dowry box and left, saying goodbye to Ren Ping with a smile:
"Farewell to Mr. Ren, see you in the capital."

"Okay, see you in the capital."

Ren Ping watched the two of them leave the tea bar, recalling the ignorant and inexplicable conversation just now, he couldn't help but feel a little crazy.

This daze lasted for several hours, sitting from noon to noon. Fortunately, he had nothing to do at first, so he sipped tea and waited until dusk when the sky was getting dark before getting up and leaving.

Today was another day for Ms. Mei's acupuncture. When I went out, it was cool in autumn, and soon it started to lightly rain. He didn't drive when he went out, so he simply walked in the rain.

The distance from the tea bar to the courtyard is far or close. It is a bustling city all the way.

Ren Ping walked unhurriedly like this, at first he didn't think much of it, but later on, it became more and more obvious that the two black cars followed closely behind him.

But he just didn't know, he didn't even bother to turn his head to take a look, as if to lure the other party to follow him on purpose, and when he walked to the alley outside the courtyard, he saw the reflection of the car on the lake, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly raised:

"After following you for so many days, you are really patient."

At this time, there was a person waiting outside the courtyard. When he saw Ren Ping, he rushed to meet him and gave up the umbrella in his hand:
"Mr. Ren, why don't you open an umbrella? If I had known this before, please let me know, and I will drive to pick you up."

"No, I walked over while enjoying the rain, and I didn't get drenched too much."

"Come in, the owner and wife are waiting for you."

This person was of course Mei Yuan, the housekeeper of the Mei family. After welcoming Ren Ping in, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the two black commercial vehicles hiding in the dark, and couldn't help snorting.

After a while, the courtyard door was slowly closed.
