Skilled in managing a house
Chapter 223: Hitting the muzzle
Bao Chengwen is a kind-hearted elder. He doesn't talk much, that is, he only asks about Zhang Yu's family situation. In fact, he had already heard from his wife about many things. He didn't mind the fact that Zhang Yu came from the countryside. He just wanted to see how Zhang Yu was as a person.
Zhang Yu massaged Niu Yanling's arms while answering questions. The safflower oil at home and Zhang Yu's methods made Niu Yanling feel much more comfortable, and it was no big deal if she could barely move.
At this time, Niu Yanling stood up and said: "There are still two dishes that have not been fried. I will go to the kitchen to get more."
After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen.
Zhang Yu knew that although Niu Yanling's arm had softened a lot, it was best not to move it.
He stood up in a hurry and said, "Auntie, I'll do it."
"Can you cook?" Niu Yanling looked at Zhang Yu.
"I can make ordinary home-cooked dishes," Zhang Yu said.
After hearing this, Niu Yanling immediately looked at her daughter and scolded: "Look, look... Xiao Zhang knows how to cook. What will he do if he raises you like this?"
Although he said this, he was very happy in his heart. Because the daughter can’t do anything, if the son-in-law can do it and they get married in the future, the daughter can eat ready-made meals.
In fact, many mothers with daughters are like this. They like to praise their sons-in-law and criticize their daughters. This is all for the good of my daughter. I hope my son-in-law can take good care of my daughter in the future.
Bao Jiayin didn't understand this. Seeing her mother scolding her again, she couldn't help but tighten her nose, but she didn't dare to say anything.
"Auntie, don't say...good news...I'll do it..." Zhang Yu said and took off his coat.
I didn't want to, but I used too much force. When I took it off, I flicked it, and the phoenix hairpin in my pocket accidentally fell out.
With a "ding" sound, it fell to the floor.
Zhang Yu hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but Bao Chengwen, who was sitting next to him, was stunned when he saw Feng Chai. When Zhang Yu picked it up and wanted to put it back in his pocket, Bao Chengwen suddenly said: "Can you show me ?"
"Okay." When Zhang Yu saw someone saying this, he couldn't refuse and handed the phoenix hairpin to Bao Chengwen.
But in his opinion, Bao Chengwen probably didn't understand it either. At most, he found it novel.
However, after Bao Chengwen looked at it for a few times, his eyes lit up. Then he looked at Zhang Yu and asked curiously: "Where did your phoenix hairpin come from?"
"Yes, I found it in the antique market." For Zhang Yu, this was a familiar routine.
Bao Chengwen looked at Zhang Yu with doubt on his face, as if he had doubts about Zhang Yu's words.
Seeing the strange expression on Bao Chengwen's face, Zhang Yu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He asked tentatively: "Uncle, do you know this thing?"
Bao Chengwen looked at his wife and daughter and said, "Let's talk in my study."
After saying that, he took the phoenix hairpin and walked towards the room he came out of earlier.
Zhang Yu followed and entered the room. This room is not small, at least more than thirty square meters, and the entire wall is lined with bookcases. The decoration inside is also very elegant, all in ancient style. On the other side of the wall is an antique shelf with many old things on it. There are flowers and bonsai on the table and windowsill.
Bao Chengwen sat down on a chair and pointed to the chair next to him. The camphor wood chair looked very elegant and full of rich colors. Zhang Yu really didn't expect that this kind elder wearing only pajamas could be so meaningful.
At this moment, Bao Chengwen looked at Feng Chai again, then looked at Zhang Yu kindly, and said slowly: "You can't find this thing in the antique market."
Zhang Yu didn't expect Bao Chengwen to say this. It simply exposed his lie. He looked a little embarrassed and said, "Uncle, why do you say that?"
"First, this thing is made of pure gold. Second, the pearls on the hairpin are so conspicuous that anyone with a little knowledge of jewelry can recognize them all at a glance. Third, there are nine tails behind this phoenix hairpin. How can anyone who is in the antique business not know the importance of this?" Bao Chengwen said lightly with a smile.
The so-called Tao means buying something of high value at a low price. To put it bluntly, it means picking up things that are missing. The seller made a mistake and sold the product as a fake, or misread the age or something.
But this hairpin is so precious on the surface. Even if the seller is SB, it is impossible for you to pick up such a hairpin.
Zhang Yu was once again embarrassed. His lies were criticized for being completely bruised. It seems that this trick is not universal. But he was more attracted by Bao Chengwen's third point.
So, he asked with a smile on his face: "Uncle, what do you mean when you say there is nine tails behind this phoenix hairpin?"
As soon as these words came out, it was completely exposed. If you don’t even understand this, why are you still picking up leaks?
Bao Chengwen couldn't help but smile and said: "These should have just come out of the soil, but you don't look like you were fighting upside down. That's strange, that's where you got it."
Zhang Yu never dreamed that Bao Chengwen could be so powerful. He could tell at a glance that Feng Chai had just come out of the earth. Zhang Yu said awkwardly again: "It's inconvenient to disclose the origin of this thing for the time being, but don't worry, it definitely didn't come from evil ways. I will send it to the patrol room after I figure it out."
Bao Chengwen nodded slightly and said kindly: "It can be seen that you are not the kind of person who does evil things. And the child's mother also said that you acted bravely and got injured for it, which was published in the newspaper, so I believe you .What do you want to know."
"I want to know, is there anything special?" Zhang Yu expressed the doubt in his heart.
He was originally thinking about asking an expert for information, but he met him here.
"If I read it correctly, this phoenix hairpin should be from the previous dynasty. Judging from the workmanship, it should be from the late period of the previous dynasty. Although anyone can wear the phoenix hairpin, there are particularities. The nine-tailed phoenix hairpin is only allowed in the palace. The imperial concubine wears it. Although there are inevitably wealthy people who privately make nine-tailed phoenix hairpins to wear, there is no doubt that the mark on it is a complete and utter imperial gift." Bao Chengwen said with familiarity.
"You mean...this is something from the palace..." Zhang Yu was a little surprised.
He could tell the approximate age, but he couldn't tell the origin of this thing.
"That's right." Bao Chengwen nodded.
Zhang Yu looked at Bao Chengwen, then glanced at the furnishings in the room, and couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, what do you do?"
"I am an archaeologist." Bao Chengwen replied with a smile.
After hearing this answer, Zhang Yu secretly said to himself that this was really a mistake. He probably couldn't be lower than Chen Kefu and Shen Yu at this level.
Zhang Yu grinned and said, "Thank you so much, uncle, for today. I was originally thinking about who to ask about the origin of this thing, but unexpectedly I met an expert."
At the same time, Zhang Yu was also wondering why Grandma Shen Qing had the phoenix hairpin worn by the imperial concubine on her head. What could this old lady be like? More importantly, if you can wear this kind of phoenix hairpin on your head, there will definitely be other things buried with you in the coffin, and those things might be as valuable as this phoenix hairpin.
Who robbed the tomb? How did the tomb robber know that there were these things in the coffin?
