Chapter 229: Returning to Yunzhou Antique City

Soon it was time for lunch. Seeing that Pei Miao was enthusiastic about reading, Mr. Ye asked someone to send the food to the outside of the study room. The master and apprentice had a quick meal outside the study room and continued to study.

Ye Lao finally stopped writing and stretched his waist. He was old and couldn't read for a long time, and his energy couldn't keep up. He looked up at Pei Miao, who was still reading seriously. Thinking of being able to accept such a good apprentice at an octogenarian age, it is really comforting for the rest of his life, but it is a pity that Pei Miao is terminally ill. Thinking of this, Elder Ye feels deeply sorry, thinking that God is jealous of talents.

Ye Lao quietly walked to the sofa and sat half-lying, closed his eyes and rested his mind, Pei Miao read a book in silence, the room was very quiet, occasionally there was the sound of paper when Pei Miao flipped through the book.

After a while, Ye Lao fell asleep, snoring lightly.

Hearing the sound of snoring, Pei Miao turned his head and saw that Ye Lao was asleep, so he turned his head and continued to read, but when he turned the pages of the book, his movements became light and slow, and he stopped making paper sounds, for fear of waking him up Ye Lao.

According to Murphy's law, the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come. He was afraid that he would make Ye Lao sleep, and the phone rang: "I am still the same boy I used to be..."

Pei Miao was taken aback, and hurriedly took out her mobile phone, and looked at the caller ID - Li Xueyang.

He connected the phone and lowered his voice: "Hello?" At the same time, he looked back at Ye Lao and found that Ye Lao was not awake, but the snoring stopped.

Li Xueyang said on the other end of the phone: "Why is your voice so low?"

Pei Miao walked quickly to the outer room of the study, and said in a low voice, "There is someone sleeping next to you, just tell me if you have anything to do."

Li Xueyang asked: "Who is sleeping next to you? Is it a beauty?"

Pei Miao sweated wildly when she heard the words: "You're really lenient, tell me, what's the matter?"

Li Xueyang asked: "Is that beauty named Chen Wei sleeping next to you?"

Pei Miao said speechlessly, "Is there something wrong with you? I'll just hang up if I'm fine."

"I have something to do." Li Xueyang said, "But you have to answer my question first."

Pei Miao smacked her lips and said, "I don't have any beautiful women by my side. It's an old gentleman, an old gentleman in his 80s."

"Let's believe you for now." Li Xueyang said happily, "Do you want an appointment, little brother?"

Pei Miao said, "I'm sorry, I'm in Shanghai, so I can't see you."

"I know you're in Shanghai, and I've also been filming an advertisement in Shanghai recently." Li Xueyang said, "Are you on an appointment, little brother?"

Pei Miao asked, "When?"

Li Xueyang said: "Tomorrow."

Pei Miao said: "Then tomorrow, where will we meet?"

Li Xueyang said: "Yesterday you took Chen Wei to visit Yunzhou Antique City, and I also want you to take me to Yunzhou Antique City."

Pei Miao said: "I happened to meet her in Yunzhou Antique City yesterday, I didn't take her there, and you don't know anything about antiques, why are you visiting the Antique City?"

Li Xueyang grinned: "It's boring to go shopping, you like antiques, so take me to the antique city, lest you feel bored."

"All right." Pei Miao said, "Then we will meet outside Yunzhou Antique City at 08:30 tomorrow morning, okay?"

"That's great." Li Xueyang said happily, "Then see you tomorrow, if you dare to break your promise, I will curse you... incontinence."

Pei Miao was in a state of sweat when she heard the words, this girl was so unique even in cursing people, so she had no choice but to say: "Understood." After speaking, she hung up the phone.

He had just kicked the phone into his pocket when another call came. He took it out and saw that it was Wang Huijun calling.

When Pei Miao connected the phone, Wang Huijun's voice came: "Pei Miao, have you heard that the chicken bowl cup is no longer available!"

Pei Miao said: "Well, I heard that, it's a pity that I can't hold eyes for you."

"How did this happen?" Wang Huijun said depressedly, "Well said, the seller suddenly changed his mind when he auctioned off the chicken bowl cup. Such a rich person behaves like a child throwing a temper tantrum, and is not responsible at all."

It was only then that Pei Miao found out that Rongbaozhai announced to the outside world that the consignment sellers had suspended their consignments, and the chicken bowl cups would not be up for auction.

Pei Miao smiled and said, "There's no way, things belong to others, and it's up to them to decide whether to sell or not."

Wang Huijun guessed: "Is there something wrong with the origin of this chicken bowl cup? The seller is afraid of causing trouble?"

Pei Miao said: "If it's gone, it's gone, it's just saving money."

Commander Wang Hui sighed: "Oh, I can only comfort myself like this."

Pei Miao asked, "Uncle Wang, how was your recent love affair?"

Wang Huijun said: "Nothing has changed, but I hinted at her yesterday, she didn't seem to understand what I meant, this girl is really a bit slow in matters of feelings..."

Pei Miao said: "I still have to remind you that although the peach blossom catastrophe doesn't do much harm to people's bodies, emotional matters are the most sad. You...don't get too deep."

Wang Huijun said: "Don't worry, I'll be careful."

"Well, well, if there is nothing else, I will hang up the phone first, and we will talk later when I have time."

"OK, bye."

Pei Miao hung up the phone, put the phone back in his pocket, and went back to the inner room of the study.

As soon as he opened the door and went in, he saw Ye Lao sitting at the coffee table making tea, Pei Miao hurried over: "Master, did I wake you up?"

"No." Ye Lao smiled lightly and said, "I just squint for a while and wake up at any time. I'm getting older and I don't sleep well. Let's sit down and have a cup of tea together."

Pei Miao sat down beside him as promised.

After a while, the tea was ready, Pei Miao hurriedly poured the tea, Ye Lao picked up the teacup and smelled it, and sighed: "Electric appliances make tea quickly and conveniently, but the taste of this tea lacks a bit of flavor."

Pei Miao put down the teapot, and laughed at himself, "I don't know much about tea. Master, if you tell me about tea sets, it's basically playing the piano against a cow."

Ye Lao took a sip of tea, put down his teacup and said, "Then tell me something you know, about antiques, last time I was here, I tested you a little bit, and found that you have a solid foundation, good eyesight, and a hardworking person. Indeed, as Lao Huang said, he is a good seedling. The eighth day of August is my 82nd birthday. I won’t make a big fuss, but my sons and daughters will definitely need to take care of it a little bit. At that time, many experts in the circle will come. Go to the banquet, you prepare a gift that can be sold, and then present it to me in front of everyone, so that those old experts in the circle will know you."

Pei Miao nodded without hesitation: "Okay, master, don't worry, there is no need to prepare, I have a lot of good gifts in my store, and I can give you everything."

Ye Laodao: "It's not that simple to get what I said, it doesn't have to be very precious, but it must be meaningful, and it has to be something you can pick up, and when the time comes, you have to do it in front of those old experts In front of you, tell me about your experience of picking up that gift.”

"Oh..." Pei Miao nodded thoughtfully, and said, "That's no problem, many of my treasures are found through leaks, and they are all good things."

Ye Lao smacked his lips and said: "Using ready-made things, I always feel that it is not so meaningful... How about it, you stay with me for a few days, and when you are free, we, the master and apprentice, will go to the antique market or something. I will personally witness the process of picking up the leak."

Pei Miao asked in a daze, "What if I can't find the leak?"

Ye Lao smiled and said: "If you still can't find a leak by the eighth day of the eighth month, it means that there is no chance for us to be mentors and apprentices."

"I understand." Pei Miao said, "Tomorrow I will make an appointment with my friend to go to Yunzhou Antique City, Master, you should go with me, maybe I can pick up the leak."

"Okay." Ye Lao suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Will I disturb your date with the beautiful woman?"

Pei Miao panicked when she heard the words, "Did you hear everything?"

Ye Lao said: "I didn't hear all of it, I only heard part of it."

Pei Miao hurriedly said: "Actually, it's not a date, she is a friend of mine, she just likes to play, and she has no one to play with, so she came to me."

Ye Lao smiled and said: "You don't need to explain this to me. I didn't prohibit you from falling in love. I really won't bother you. Don't call me a bad old man like a light bulb."

"No, no." Pei Miao hurriedly waved his hands and said, "We are really just friends, so we can't talk about disturbing you."

"That's good." Ye Lao nodded and said with a smile, "I'm going to take a nap for a while, and I'll leave the study to you. You can make it whatever you want, just don't light it up for me."

After he finished speaking, he turned and went out.

Watching Ye Lao leave, Pei Miao was a little dazed for a moment, so he left the study to himself to build?Isn't that too generous?There are many treasures in this study.

Pei Miao suspected that there was a camera in this room, so she began to walk around the room, and at the same time opened up the domain of full concentration to check every corner of the room.

However, after he walked around, he didn't find any cameras, which also proved that Ye Lao wasn't trying to test him.

Pei Miao was immediately moved. He and Mr. Ye were the masters and apprentices who had a quick relationship. Mr. Ye trusted him so much. He really didn't know what to say. Pei Miao had no parents since he was a child, and his only relative, his grandfather, also passed away. , so he is very precious to his family, and he secretly vowed in his heart that he must treat Master well, and on Master's birthday on the eighth day of August, he must present a good birthday gift to earn enough face for Ye Lao.

Pei Miao had nothing else to do in the study alone, he could only read books, and every time he flipped through these antique books, Pei Miao would feel very comfortable from the bottom of his heart.

An afternoon passed quietly like this. When Ye Lao returned to the study, it was already six o'clock in the evening. When Ye Lao came in, he found Pei Miao still sitting and reading, so he advised him to take a rest. After all, reading for a long time It is not good for the eyes. People who play antiques must protect their eyes. Knowledge is important, and eyesight is also very important.

After dinner, the master and apprentice took a walk in the community. The scenery in the community is beautiful, the facilities are complete, and street lights can be seen everywhere.

Everyone in the community greeted Mr. Ye respectfully when they saw Mr. Ye. Mr. Ye also responded with a smile, then pointed at Pei Miao, and introduced, "My apprentice is a new recruit."

Then the other party would politely praise Pei Miao.

The master and the apprentice were sitting in a gazebo by a small lotus pond and chatting with the evening breeze. When they got home, it was already nine o'clock. Pei Miao still wanted to read, but Mr. Ye urged him to go to bed early and get up early every day. , in his house, no one was allowed to sleep late, and then, led by the nanny, he went to the room in the main courtyard.

Guest rooms are usually in the front yard, but Pei Miao's room is in the main yard, which is beyond the treatment of guests, and Ye Lao also said that this room will be Pei Miao's room from now on, and the nanny will clean it every half a month, and everyone else will be the same. No entry.

The bed in the room is an old-fashioned bed. Although it is not made of precious wood, it is very comfortable to sleep on. This reminds him of the bed that his grandfather slept in when he was a child. In the past, his grandfather also had an old-fashioned bed. Later, his grandfather followed the trend and changed the bed If he dies, he chops the old bed into firewood and burns it.

The bed was comfortable to sleep on, and it was easy for people to fall asleep. Pei Miao was obviously not very tired, but she fell asleep after lying down for a while, and there was no dream all night, and she slept until dawn.

Pei Miao picked up her phone and looked at it. It was only 06:30 in the morning. It was early in the summer when it entered the summer.

Pei Miao got up, put on her clothes, and walked to the bathroom that came with the room. The bathroom was modernly decorated, with a water heater, shower, toilet, and toothpaste, toothbrush and towels were all new.

After Pei Miao washed up, she walked out of the room. In the yard, Ye Xiangnan and Mr. Ye and his grandpa and grandson were exercising in the morning. Their morning exercise was very simple - kicking.

Extend your arms sideways, kick your feet up as high as you can, draw an arc, land on the ground, then take a step forward and kick the other foot.

Seeing Pei Miao come out, Ye Lao kicked his legs and called out: "Pei Miao, come, let's exercise together."

"Okay." Pei Miao responded and joined them in exercising. The three of them stood side by side and kicked together.

After all, Pei Miao is a Lianjiazi, kicking is really weak for him, as long as he wants, he can kick himself until his nose bleeds, but he doesn't want to show off, so he just kicks casually, as high as Ye Xiangnan's kick. up.

After the morning exercise, the three of them had breakfast together. After breakfast, Ye Lao took Pei Miao and set off to Yunzhou Antique City. Same as yesterday, there were still three cars, one Hongqi, and two jeeps.

When they arrived at Yunzhou Antique City, Ye Lao and Pei Miao got off the car, and four bodyguards immediately came to Ye Lao's side.

Ye Lao glanced at them and said, "In public, don't follow so closely."

Pei Miao also said to them: "I can protect Ye Lao's safety, don't worry."

They didn't care what Pei Miao said, but since Mr. Ye asked them not to get so close, they could only do so and retreated one after another, leaving him seven or eight meters away.

"Let's go." Ye Lao said, and walked straight to the entrance of Yunzhou Antique City, followed closely by Pei Miao, followed by four bodyguards not too far away.

After entering Yunzhou Antique City, Ye Lao asked Pei Miao, "Which floor do you plan to go to first?"

Pei Miao said, "Let's start shopping from the first floor."

"Okay." Ye Lao nodded.

Pei Miao took out her mobile phone and edited a message to Li Xueyang: "I have entered the Antique City, call me when you arrive."

He was just about to put the phone in his pocket when the message came back. It was a voice message. When he opened it, Li Xueyang's voice came: "I've arrived at the door."

Pei Miao turned to Elder Ye and said, "Master, I'll go out and pick her up."

Ye Lao smiled and waved his hands: "Go, don't let the girls wait too long, it's too impolite."

"Then I'll go." After finishing speaking, Pei Miao turned around and walked out the door.
