Chapter 15 Mint Pear Blossom Tea Chapter Chapter 5

The days were long in summer, the three of them tidied up the room, and before the sun set, Ji Xiaofu was busy washing the newly purchased sheets.Yang Xiao cleared out all the garbage, and called Yang Buhui and two people to take it to the garbage recycling station. He had to explain to Yang Buhui how to sort the garbage, and went back to take the broom and water gun Ji Xiaofu bought to tidy up the yard.

Speaking of the courtyard, Yang Buhui couldn't feel that this was the green space that the city dreamed of. In front of the townhouse, there was only a space of [-] square meters. Two emaciated sycamore trees were planted, and they carried a few leaves to withstand the test of the city's scorching sun. Dejectedly, "Is this called Fengqiwu District? If a chicken falls on it, the tree will probably be broken!" Yang Buhui shook the branch and said contemptuously.

Yang Xiao smiled, "Give the real estate developer a dignity, don't tell the truth, the adult society just sees the truth and doesn't tell the truth." He greeted Yang Buhui to connect the water gun to the water pipe outside, and asked Yang Buhui while washing the car, "Baby is hurt?" Are you wronged?"

Originally, Yang Buhui was still curiously playing with Yang Xiao's high-pressure spray gun for car washing, and tears suddenly came to his eyes.

"I quarreled with my mother in the supermarket." Yang Buhui muttered softly.

"Let me hear the story." Yang Xiao said as he adjusted the water.

"Mom said she wanted to buy it for me...buy..." After talking about buying it for a long time, but didn't say anything, Yang Buhui hesitated for a long time.

"Want to buy underwear?" Yang Xiao asked.

"Yeah!" Yang Buhui hugged the broom as if trying to hide behind, as if trying to ride the broom.

"It's okay to buy, but supermarkets are full of cheap daily necessities. Let her take you to specialty stores in the future."

Yang Buhui wasn't interested in specialty stores, so he continued to hang his head and said, "Mom doesn't know what size I wear, so she asked me to take off my coat to try...I don't...I quarreled with her."

"Arguing? I can't even quarrel with her, can you? You just burst into tears on the spot, right?" Yang Xiao turned off the water gun and went to clean up the water pipes.

"Am I crying because I'm arguing? She's my mother, what can I say? It's not my fault..." Yang Buhui was relatively close to his father, and when he talked about the past few days, he began to pour beans.

"It's okay, it's okay. In fact, you are right about this matter, and she is right. It's just that your starting point is different. You see, Yuan Yuan also cares about you. She thinks it's only natural for you to buy a beautiful underwear when you are 14 years old, but she and You haven't lived for too long, and she has a generous personality, doesn't care about details, just wants to buy things smoothly, and has no scruples about your feelings. You are also right, you are a little girl, and it is better to undress in a place with so many people For the first time, we didn’t say that undressing in public is a good thing..." Yang Xiao said a few words, seeing that Yang Buhui pouted but stopped crying, "Whatever she buys for you in the future, if you don't want it, just ask for a lot of money She is a money addict, so she dare not buy things casually."

Yang Buhui smiled, and went to clean up the floating dirt on the wall with a broom in his arms.The two of them were cleaning up the last bit of rubbish in disgrace, when Ji Xiaofu came out and said that dinner was ready, and when Yang Buhui was bouncing towards the dining room, he suddenly thought that this simple life is really good.

"School will start in September!" Ji Xiaofu shook the fan in her hand, looked at the calendar, and suddenly began to worry.

Yang Xiao still huddled under the lamp to read the books he brought back from Zhang Ying in the past few days, "It's mid-July now, there is still a month and a half left, let me ask the private schools, the public schools feel that they can handle the formalities. At the gate. I've given up."

“Private school tuition is expensive!”

"Public schools are more expensive to process."

"And what grade do you plan to put her in? First grade?" Ji Xiaofu asked back on the sofa.

"Junior high school. I started studying in the seventh grade. I taught her one after another. In fact, the biggest obstacle to school is not learning, but dealing with interpersonal relationships. The biggest role of school is not to let you learn knowledge. Of course, knowledge is also important. But it’s more about adapting to living in groups.” Yang Xiao thought about it and explained to Ji Xiaofu.

"You're right and sound, but it's too troublesome. Ah! So troublesome, raising children is so troublesome! You have to worry about food, clothing and housing. You are afraid of losing it when you go out, and you are afraid of being misbehaved when you enter the house. You can't format it." Ji Xiaofu said in a tone. Sad to complain.

"The most difficult time to raise is over!" Yang Xiao was rather optimistic. "I took over her when she was six years old. She was Sister Lin who fell from the sky, and I fell from the sky... Every day I fight wits and courage with her, and I have to be busy with Mingjiao, my God!" Said Yang Xiao waved his hand at this point, "I don't want to mention it! Anyway, I'm planning to raise one, who persuaded me to give birth? I raised one and my anxiety attack broke out. My Yang family has no successor to the throne. Thank you for your kindness."

"You can do it, and at least you want to raise one. I don't want one." Ji Xiaofu said, leaning on the sofa.

"Didn't you give birth to this?" Yang Xiao muttered.

"Is that so, Yang Buhui is my own mitosis?"

"That's meiosis..."

Yang Buhui changed into a new dress that she bought yesterday, but she was still not used to showing her legs. After thinking about it, she put on her pajama pants again. Looking at this dress, Ji Xiaofu was about to speak, but Yang Xiao stopped her "It's not illegal for you to let her put it on, and she will take it off when it gets hot."

"How old is this? It's such a hot day. Yesterday I insisted on buying a long-sleeved dress. It was a seasonal sale in a specialty store. If I didn't buy the latest model, I would be treated as a stepmother." Ji Xiaofu complained.

Yang Xiao raised his head and glanced at her, "Where do you wear men's clothes? It has the same effect as Yang Buhui wearing clothes that show his arms and legs, except that others don't talk about it. You have to thank the Yuan Dynasty for being an enlightened era. Maybe you will be able to wear it in the Song Dynasty." ..."

"Okay, leave her alone."

"I went to Zhang Ying's place today and asked him to look at private schools, how about you?" Yang Xiao asked.

"Do housework. I washed a new coral quilt yesterday. I have to wash and replace it today. After washing, let it dry and fold it up. Another day! There is still an end to housework."

"What I mean is, if you have time, take Yang Buhui around, especially the school and the park. At least give her the impression that the school is nothing to be afraid of. She was taught by me in the study from the beginning, and at most Xiao Zhao would accompany her. Filled up."

"Brother, I just moved to Nanjing. I used to not be able to tell the north, south, east, and west of this city." Ji Xiaofu was also very helpless.

"Then... if you get lost, you can call the police!"

"Look for the police to arrest our two missing persons. By the way, is it child abduction?"

Ji Xiaofu swayed and closed the door, and walked back from the vestibule. Yang Buhui held Ci Hai in his arms and asked, "Mom, shall we live here from now on? Can I grow something in the yard next spring?"

"Cub, it's comfortable to live in this villa, but it's not enough to clean it. In this month, your sister will do all the housework in her life, and her waist will be broken. If you are asked to pay the water and electricity property, you will cry. Bar."

Yang Buhui scratched his head, "What is a water and electricity property?"

Yang Xiao didn't go to Jinyu Pavilion, but parked the car at the food stall and found Zhang Ying and Zhang Shuxian's table, "At least I still want to live a nourishing life for a month, I'm so tired every day, what's the matter today."

"It's all right! I just come out to get together on the weekend and have some dinner." Zhang Shuxian smiled.

"Hey, Yang Tiantong, do you plan to find a job in a college?" Zhang Ying picked up the food beside him.

"There's nothing to be courteous about, adultery or stealing, just tell me, let me go to college to sweep the streets?" Yang Xiao moved the bowl away.

"Well, I just think you have a sixth sense of discernment for Yuan porcelain. You can guess it by weighing it in your hand and looking at the quality. This is too powerful." Zhang Shuxian said and gestured a thumb, " It takes years of contact!"

"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just... I have something to do next month, but I've taken another in-service postgraduate elective course, the General History of China, I think you can do it, or you can help me take this summer class, teaching plan I have them all, you just follow along, and I won’t lose you the class fee. How about it?”

Yang Xiao poked the rice grains with his chopsticks and remained silent.

"Two classes a week, five hundred yuan a class."

Yang Xiao looked up, "Well, I'm busy...you think highly of me, so I'd rather be obedient than respectful."

"Oh, the stone in my heart has finally fallen." Zhang Shuxian asked the waiter to serve a bottle of beer, and took a big gulp himself.The three of them talked about some insider gossip about the university, Zhang Shuxian didn't doubt Yang Xiao's education, "Nanjing University? You've seen it earlier! It doesn't look like a student from a third-rate university, who studies philosophy? Hey! Disrespect, disrespect, basic subjects vision."

After drinking a bottle of beer, Yang Xiao and Zhang Ying sent him back to the entrance of the family area of ​​Jinling University. They were not in the mood to drive anymore, and sat in the community garden nearby to hide from the cool.

"You really stunned them last time!" Zhang Ying couldn't help nagging. "I always thought that the complete Yuan porcelain plate was a high imitation, but I didn't expect it to be those broken ones. How did you find out?"

"I didn't see it. Now the high imitation technology has been perfected. They all went to the sunken ship off the coast of Quanzhou to fish out the porcelain fragments, and then ground them as powder and fired them again. The pigments were also treated with radiation. Anyway As long as the carbon [-] has passed the test, it will be fine, but I don’t say I’ve tried all the porcelain from Quanzhou, at least I have seen it, and the pattern changes, and it’s within that range. The last batch of porcelain obviously had the wrong pattern.”

"My God, you have really practiced, and you have passed through it?" Zhang Ying's eyes widened.

"Oh, I just read a lot of materials, pictures and so on, so I got a feeling." Yang Xiao consciously made a slip of the tongue and said casually.

"Talent! It's really talent! I believe it." After Zhang Ying finished speaking, she continued to question, "Then you said that the weight and paint are all made according to the standard. Can you still distinguish fakes in the future?"

"It's very simple, destructive testing is enough, because the most important thing in firing porcelain in ancient times is that the fire can't be controlled. It must be fired manually and with coal and wood. There is very little coal, and it is fired with wood. The heat can be compared with the current electric stove. The elimination rate is also very high. In addition, if you are willing, scrape off the paint to have a look. If the particles are particularly uniform, it is machine-made. If it is hand-made, can he make the abrasive tool also be from the Yuan Dynasty? Test The trace element carbon fourteen."

After thinking about it, "Gold leaf is like this. In the past, gold was not purified very well, so there was no 99.99% gold. If it is in ancient paintings, it is modern. But who would cut paper for this?"

"I think you are more suitable for this industry than me anyway." Zhang Ying grabbed Yang Xiao's hand and shook it.

"Didn't you say that you are a big boss, so people believe you?" Yang Xiao gave a blank look.

"Hey, there's one more thing, don't cut your hair, people said, I like you who are so blunt and fairy-like, full of national style, please go and have a high degree of trust."

"Who are they?"

"Professor Jiang and Deputy Director Lin."

When Yang Xiao entered the house, the room was dark with no lights on. He touched the power source and turned on the light, and saw Ji Xiaofu sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed in a daze.

"Is there any food?" Yang Xiao asked while taking off his coat.

Yang Buhui came out of the kitchen and whispered, "Mom made a lot of phone calls today, and then that's it."

"The website where I used to work is closed, it's completely canceled, I'm really unemployed." Seeing Yang Xiao approaching, Ji Xiaofu raised her head and looked at her with red eyes, and said something without thinking.

"It's okay, there is a good thing, that is, I was hired as a temporary worker. I bought egg tarts and ice cream, come and eat."
