The Charming Life of Rebirth

Ever since Xiao Lin made up his mind to go to Liulichang and Panjiayuan, he became more attentive in learning about antiques.

The things in those places are not cheap, and if you hit your eyes, you will lose more.

Besides calligraphy, painting and porcelain, Huang Wei also taught Xiao Lin how to look at jade and bronze wares.

If you want to learn any knowledge, you can take out the real objects and compare them. If you have any antiques at home, you can analyze them carefully at home. If you don’t have them at home, you can go to the museum to see them.Everything is based on the premise that Xiao Lin learns to understand.

In terms of painting, Huang Wei's requirements are much looser. He feels that apart from basic knowledge, other things depend on understanding. Xiao Lin is very talented in this regard. He doesn't want to talk too much, which limits Xiao Lin's creativity.

Time flies by while studying, and He Bin is on winter vacation in a blink of an eye.There are more and more old books and newspapers, porcelain and copper coins in Xiao Lin's hands.

Xiao Lin originally didn't plan to buy a house in the capital for a short time, but with more and more collections, Xiao Lin felt that buying a house was imperative.You can't just pile up a bunch of junk in Huang Lao's house, let alone He Lao's house.So Xiao Lin began to inquire about the market of the house.

Huang Wei knew that Xiao Lin was planning to buy a house, so he asked him, "Linlin, do you want to buy a bungalow or a building?"

Xiao Lin naturally wanted to buy a bungalow, not to mention the cheapness of the house, and the room for appreciation.However, a bungalow is not as safe as a building. He would feel distressed if he lost even one of his collections.After hesitating for a while, I decided to buy a building.

Huang Wei nodded, and soon told Xiao Lin that there was a family upstairs planning to immigrate abroad, and the price of the house was [-].

The price is really not expensive, after all, Huang Wei lives in a very good location.It's just that Xiao Lin doesn't have that much money.

Huang Wei said: "Linlin, Grandpa Huang will help you buy the house above, but you have to give Grandpa Huang a woolen porcelain tea set. Grandpa Huang has coveted it for a long time."

Xiao Lin knew that it was Mr. Huang helping him. Although Maoci would be worth a lot in the future, a Maoci tea set is definitely not worth a hundred thousand now.

I was very moved in my heart, but Xiao Lin knew that Grandpa Huang really treated him like a family member, so it would be hypocritical to refuse.He said: "Okay, anyway, the porcelain is here for you, you can take whatever you want. I will put the old books and newspapers in the new house."

Huang Lao immediately smiled.To be honest, he hasn't seen enough of these porcelains. If Xiao Lin suddenly took them away, he would feel empty in his heart.

After solving the house problem, Xiao Lin thought about it, he should go home.

One is to settle the wages for Aunt Wang, and he also wants to see relatives like aunts and uncles.

Mr. He was still worried that he would leave by himself, so he asked Secretary Li to accompany him back.Because Xiao Lin only planned to go back for five days, Mr. He asked Secretary Li to wait in L City for five days before bringing Xiao Lin back.

Mr. He always seemed to be worried that Xiao Lin would be bullied when he returned home, so he was worried if he didn't send someone to watch over him.

Secretary Li drove Xiao Lin home. The two made an appointment to meet in five days, and Secretary Li drove away.

Who knew Xiao Lin saw someone who shouldn't be here as soon as he entered the house, his third aunt.

Xiao Lin's three aunts are stingy and indifferent, which is Xiao Lin's feeling.

His parents died in a car accident. The three of them didn't expect to comfort him, a nephew who had lost his parents. Instead, they sold the ancestral property left by his grandparents for a cent.

According to the customs in the village, the ancestral property of the family is inherited by the son, that is, by Xiao Lin's father. Xiao Lin's father died, and Xiao Lin is the owner of these properties.

But because Xiao Lin was only eight years old, he couldn't do anything, so the house in the village, the yard, and the [-] acres of land owned by his grandfather belonged to the three aunts.

At that time, my aunt angrily scolded my aunts for stealing my nephew's property, which is no joke, but Xiao Lin didn't care.Those things are not worth anything, and there is nothing wrong with using them to see through people's hearts.

But that refers to the houses and land in the village.The house in the city was earned by his parents, and Xiao Lin would not allow others to touch it.

Xiao Lin's third aunt is a woman with a slightly mean face, who is wearing an apron at this time, and seems to be cooking.

Seeing Xiao Lin, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Xiao Lin is back, have you eaten yet?"

Aunt Wang also came out of the kitchen and looked at Xiao Lin with a helpless expression.

"Why is the third aunt here free?" Xiao Lin wanted to know what the third aunt was here for.

The third aunt showed an exaggerated loving smile, and said with a little reproach: "Xiaolin, your cousin found a job in the city and has no place to live. It just so happened that you were not at home, so we lived here. Anyway, the place is big, and we live here." Let’s talk about it. Besides, how can you spend money to hire an outsider? It would be great for Sangu and cousin to show you the house. My family doesn’t need money.”

The third aunt said it nicely, but it's a pity that Xiao Lin is not a real eight-year-old child, and understands the truth in it.The so-called asking God is easy but giving God away is difficult. If Sangu and the others live here, I don’t know who owns the house.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin made a bitter face: "Sangu, of course you are right, but the cost of the capital city is really too high. I don't have enough money, so I plan to sell the house."

When the third aunt heard that Xiao Lin was going to sell the house, she immediately became anxious: "You child, you are studying well in the city, what are you going to do in the capital? It costs money and no one takes care of you. Hurry up and transfer back, it happens that the third aunt is staying here. It's nothing, isn't it easy to cook something for you every day?"

Xiao Lin didn't care how good Sangu said, whether he liked it or not, anyway, no one could change what he decided.

Seeing that Sangu was going to continue talking, Xiao Lin hurriedly interrupted her and said, "Sangu, I go to school in the capital, so I can stay and work in the capital in the future. It's worth the extra money. Others can't go if they want to go."

Aunt Wang also chimed in and said, "That's right. Xiaolin was able to study in the capital because of his smartness, and others really couldn't go. Spend a little money now, and in the future you will be able to eat public food."

The third aunt immediately retorted: "I'm talking to my nephew, why do you, an outsider, get in the way? Co-authoring doesn't cost your family's money, and it doesn't hurt your back to stand up and talk. You live here for free, and you also take Xiaolin's money. You are also sorry for you."

Aunt Wang couldn't say no to Sangu, her eyes turned red immediately.

Xiao Lin sneered and said, "Third Aunt, it was my idea to let Aunt Wang come over to look at the door. Besides, it wasn't Sangu's money that I spent on selling the house. What are you so excited about?"

Xiao Lin really didn't like the aunts, so he didn't want to talk nonsense at this time.

After hearing Xiao Lin's words, the third aunt's face immediately sank: "What do you know about your family? Do you think the house is so easy to sell? Maybe you can only buy a few thousand yuan, what can you do with it?"

Xiao Lin had already made plans in his heart, and after hearing Sangu's words, he said along the way: "I've already found a buyer for the house, and I'll come to see it this afternoon."

"What?" Sangu and Aunt Wang exclaimed at the same time, they didn't expect that Xiao Lin had already found someone to buy a house.

Xiao Lin didn't pay much attention to it, turned around and left the door.

Secretary Li sent Xiao Lin to the door and went to the guest house in the city.The guest house is not far from home, Xiao Lin arrived within half an hour after walking.

Of course he would not really sell the house left by his parents, it was just for pretend.

Secretary Li heard that it was such a small matter, and readily agreed to arrange for someone to "buy a house" in the afternoon.

When Xiao Lin got home again, the third aunt's cousin had already returned.Hearing that Xiao Lin was going to sell the house, he looked dissatisfied and cursed dirtyly.

Xiao Lin looked down on this idiot cousin, and was not prepared to talk to him.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, a man in a suit and leather shoes entered the door, and Xiao Lin's third aunt hurried over: "Sir, children are ignorant, and our house is not going to be sold."

Xiao Lin sneered and said, "Third Aunt, this is my house, not yours, I have the final say whether to sell it or not."

"You have the final say? Your parents have gone, I am your elder, the house cannot be sold, what if you are cheated?" Third Aunt said sharply.

Xiao Lin looked at the third aunt even colder. When his parents passed away, he didn't think of being his elders, but now he remembered.

"Uncle, this is my parents' house. I don't have a new guardian, so I can be the master of the house. But please deposit the money for buying the house directly into my passbook in Beijing, and the school will deduct tuition fees every year."

This statement is naturally false, saying that the money is deposited in the capital is to worry about Sangu and the others' idea of ​​making a passbook.

The middle-aged man nodded and said yes, and said that the matter would be settled in three days, and Xiao Lin would vacate the house by then.

The third aunt saw that Xiao Lin was determined to sell the house and sighed that the family was unlucky, so she took her son and left.He also said that he wanted to find other people to persuade Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin was worried that the third aunt would have other tricks, so he said to the middle-aged man: "Uncle, I can vacate the house today, you must protect this house."

The middle-aged man also smiled at this time: "Kid, don't worry, someone will come to clean up the house. Then I'll send someone over in a while?"

Xiao Lin nodded.Xiao Lin had already put the house certificate in his new house in the capital, so there was no need to take it back this time.

Because the third aunt is gone, the step of pretending to buy a house can be saved.Xiao Lin wanted to avoid the third aunt, so he said to Aunt Wang: "Aunt Wang, this uncle will be moving here this afternoon. Let's go to Auntie's house."

Aunt Wang also lost her mind this time, after hearing Xiao Lin's words, she said, "Then I'll go and pack my things."

Aunt Wang was still in a daze until she got on the bus to the county. "Xiao Lin, that man hasn't given the money yet, is it okay if we give him the house?"

Xiao Lin shook his head: "Don't worry, Aunt Wang. The house book is still in my hand, and I will give him the house book after he gives the money."

Only then did Aunt Wang breathe a sigh of relief.

Because he called ahead of time, when he returned to Ming County, his aunt and uncle came to pick him up and Aunt Wang in person.

My aunt's home is in a village not too far from the county seat, and it takes less than an hour to get there by bike.

Xiao Lin hadn't ridden a bicycle for many years, and when he arrived at his aunt's house, he only felt sore back and uncomfortable.

The aunt poured Xiao Lin a glass of brown sugar water, which is the fashion for children who come over these days.

Xiao Lin took a sip with a bitter face, really not used to it.

In the capital, Mr. He and the others naturally regarded him as a big boy like He Bin, but they never expected to relive the treatment of children when they returned home.

"Your third aunt is not honest about this matter. Not long after you went to school in the capital, she brought her son into your house with big bags and small bags. Your aunt Wang wants to take care of it, but she speaks bad words. Your aunt Wang I also suffered a lot of grievances.”

As soon as the aunt's words fell, Aunt Wang quickly stopped her and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you talking to Xiaolin about this? He's from a child's family. It should be hard to hear."

The aunt stopped talking immediately, and changed the subject and asked, "Xiaolin, what do you want to eat tonight? Auntie will make it for you."

Xiao Lin knew that his aunt's family was not rich, so he said, "Let's eat corn jelly, I haven't eaten for a long time."

Auntie patted his head, "It's cold, it's not good to eat this at night. Auntie will make it for you tomorrow, and Auntie will make dumplings for you tonight."

Xiao Lin didn't want to keep his aunt busy, so he said, "Farewell, just eat steamed buns tonight."

The aunt's eyes were red again: "My Xiaolin is smart and sensible. If the second sister is still here, I don't know how happy I am."

The uncle hurriedly said: "What are you talking about, my nephew finally came here, and you made him cry again."

Seeing her aunt feeling a little sad, Xiao Lin felt uncomfortable.Although my parents have been away for several years in my previous life, I just can't let go of it in my heart.

Not wanting to cry at others, Xiao Lin changed the topic: "Uncle, how is the harvest this year?"

Uncle sighed: "No way. This year's apple harvest is bumper, and every family has several thousand catties, which can't be bought at a price."

Xiao Lin thought about it, but he had an idea, but he didn't know if it would work.
