Rebirth 93: Break off the engagement at the beginning and marry Bai Fumei

"Uncle, get up first," Song Qingyun reached out to help the old man, and at the same time said, "It's just two bowls, I'll just pay you, it won't be a big deal!"

Obviously, Song Qingyun hasn't understood what happened, but he doesn't blame Song Qingyun. In Jiangcheng in the 90s, there was no such thing as trouble. People in Jiangcheng have always lived an honest life, especially these days. Let alone bumping into each other, even if they really bump into each other, as long as they don't damage themselves, stand up and throw themselves at each other, and say a few nice words, people will I just let you go, and no matter what happens in the future, even if I don’t bump into you, I’ll get under the wheels of your car.

"Compensate? Damn!" The uncle spat out Song Qingyun forcefully, and then grabbed the collar of Song Qingyun's clothes, "What are you going to compensate for! You think this is your family's eating bowl! This was used by the Empress Dowager Cixi bowl!"

"You can't leave today!" As he spoke, the old man grabbed Song Qingyun's collar and shouted in a crying voice while beating Song Qingyun.

Song Qingyun obviously understood the situation now. He stretched out his hand to stop the uncle from hitting his arm. At the same time, he looked at the bowl in the box. Based on his own experience, this was definitely not an antique. Chen Yang knelt down beside him and reached out to pick up the half-broken bowl from the box. This was a porcelain bowl used in rural areas in the 60s and [-]s. Not to mention the Empress Dowager Cixi, not even my mother used it!

"Uncle, please don't get excited." Chen Yang squatted on the ground and touched the old man's arm, "Let's talk slowly if we have anything to say. Did you buy this bowl?"

"Buy it?" The uncle turned back and glared at Chen Yang, "This is an antique, used by the Empress Dowager Cixi to eat and drink porridge. Find a place and buy me an exact replica!"

"This was handed down from our ancestors. Where can I buy it?" The old man held on to Song Qingyun tightly, as if he was afraid that Song Qingyun would run away.

Chen Yang observed the old man from the side. This old man was definitely an actor. Many of the other people who played porcelain only made thunder but no rain. They just howled loudly and had no tears in their eyes. This old man put on a full show. Not only did he shout loudly, but his face was covered with tears. People who didn't know it actually thought that Song Qingyun had broken something of his.

Chen Yang looked at the broken porcelain bowl in his hand. This time he met the founder of Pengci. This is called Pengci!

The behavior of touching porcelain should be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. It is said that it was invented by some descendants of the Eight Banners who were in decline in the late Qing Dynasty. These people usually walk around the busy streets holding a piece of expensive porcelain, which is of course a fake. Then he looks for the opportunity and deliberately lets the moving carriage accidentally touch him, or he bumps into you intentionally. The porcelain in his hand immediately falls to the ground and breaks into pieces. Then the owner of the porcelain will pester him with righteous words and claim that the porcelain is expensive. compensation for the price.

Over time, people called this behavior touching porcelain, which means that the first thing they touched was really porcelain.

Because the old man was shouting and making trouble, and Song Qingyun’s store was not far away, merchants from nearby shops and some people who had nothing to do strolled around quickly gathered around, saying that adults have been so enthusiastic about watching the excitement since ancient times, no matter big or small. , as long as people get together, they must see what happens.

"Boss Song, aren't you in the antique business? Just take a look!"

"Uncle, Boss Song's shop is right there. He has been selling antiques here for many years. He is an expert in this field!"

"Yes, yes," Song Qingyun said next to him at this time, "Uncle, I am an antique seller. You get up first and I will show you."

The uncle frowned slightly when he heard what was said around him. No one told him before he came that he was selling antiques! Aren't you meeting an expert? Thinking of this, the uncle suddenly became furious and shouted, "No, you are selling antiques, of course you will say that this is fake, don't do this with me!"

"I've eaten more salt than you and walked more distances. Without 50 yuan today, none of you can leave!" The old man held on to Song Qingyun tightly, as if he couldn't leave without losing money.

Chen Yang chuckled beside him, holding a broken bowl in his hand, and asked the uncle, "Uncle, are you really asking for 50 yuan? Don't say it was not used by the Empress Dowager Cixi. Even if it was, it is not worth 50 yuan." Wan!"

The uncle looked back at Chen Yang, stared at his eyes and said, "If you say it's not worth it, it's not worth it! I didn't ask for the money blindly. Someone has already bought this bowl, and they have already agreed on the price with me. I spent 50 yuan to buy these two bowls from me. I was going to give them to others today, but you broke them."

"Do you think it's worth 50?"

Let’s not talk about whether the uncle’s bowl is an antique or not. Just because someone is willing to spend 50 to buy these two bowls, you have to compensate them. Therefore, it no longer matters whether these two bowls are antiques.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang squatted on the ground and rolled his eyes a few times. He stood up, took the bowl and smiled at the old man. Then he put half of the bowl in front of the old man and said, "Sir, you said this was used by the Empress Dowager Cixi. The bowl is passed down from your ancestors, but how can you prove it!"

"Of course I can prove it!" The uncle still held onto Song Qingyun's hand, and turned to Chen Yang and said, "My surname is Li, and our ancestor is Li Lianying, who was a celebrity around the Empress Dowager Cixi!"

Ouch! Chen Yang covered his face. If you talk about some specific people, you might be fooled by today's matter. But you talk about Li Lianying. It seems that you need to be knowledgeable to deal with porcelain!

"Ha ha!"

After the uncle finished speaking, not to mention Chen Yang and Song Qingyun lowered their heads and laughed secretly, the crowd watching also started laughing. Someone stood up with a smile and asked the uncle, "Uncle, then Li Lianying is a eunuch. A eunuch doesn't even have that thing, how can he have descendants?"

"That's right, uncle, you can make up stories and get some snacks!"

"What do you know!" The uncle shouted to the crowd of onlookers, "In ancient times, there were many eunuchs who would go to the palace to work as eunuchs after getting married. Our ancestor Li Lianying stayed here first and then paid tribute. What's the point? question!"

"Otherwise, why did Li Lianying comb her hair so well that she was favored by Cixi?" The uncle asked everyone, "That's why she combed her daughter-in-law's hair at home!"

Everyone heard what the uncle said, and it was right to think about it! After all, something like this happened in history. In ancient times, people got married early. It was not impossible to stay in the palace first and then enter the palace to become a eunuch. Could it be said that Li Lianying also stayed in the palace first and then entered the palace to become a eunuch?

According to folklore, Li Lianying arrived in the capital. Because she had mastered a new hairstyle technique, she asked fellow eunuch Shen Lanyu to introduce her to the palace and became the hair-combing eunuch of Empress Dowager Cixi, and she became favored by Cixi.

In fact, Li Lianying was not specifically responsible for combing the hair of the Empress Dowager Cixi. According to records in "Palace Records", there was a eunuch in the palace who was specialized in combing her hair. "He was a rather favored old eunuch who was gentle, docile, gentle and polite. He always had a friendly smile from the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He served people in a gentle and gentle manner, just right, making the people being served feel very comfortable. The maids were very affectionate to him and sincerely called him Uncle Liu. He often brought some needlework and thread to the palace maids, which they lacked, but he did not give it to just one person, anyone could use it. When the palace ladies met him, they would sometimes greet him and ask him good luck, and he would always He returned the favor very humbly, no matter who it was to. The old Queen Mother knew that he was very popular and often said: "Go down and let them make you some tea!" "This is such a big face that the palace maids can enjoy tea. This is a very honorable thing in the palace. Eunuch Liu knelt down repeatedly and said, "I don't dare to bear it, I don't dare to bear it! "The more honor the Queen Mother gave him, the more humble and cautious he became. This was the reason why Eunuch Liu was favored for a long time.

According to this record in the book, the eunuch who was good at combing his hair in the palace should be named Liu, not Li Lianying. Moreover, Li Lianying did not stay here first and then enter the palace as he told the uncle, because he couldn't even stay after he wanted to.

After hearing what the old man said, Song Qingyun sneered, raised one hand and patted the old man's shoulder directly. Without seeing how hard Song Qingyun used it, the other hand passed through the old man's armpit and said, " Old man, you get up first, and I’ll tell you what Li Lianying is all about!”

While speaking, Song Qingyun directly lifted the old man up from the ground, holding him up with enthusiasm, pointing to the box on the ground, "There are indeed many eunuchs in history who stayed first and then entered the palace, but Li Lianying is definitely not one of them!"

"It seems that your ancestors have deceived you for several generations!"

"What do you mean?" The uncle wanted to break free from Song Qingyun's control, but although he struggled a few times, he found that he could not struggle at all, and then shouted at Song Qingyun, "You broke my bowl, you should pay compensation." I have money, and now not only do you want to not lose my money, but you also want to ruin our ancestors, and there is no royal law!"

"Li Lianying's original name was Li Jinxi. He was born in 1848, which was the 20th year of Daoguang." At this time, Chen Yang said from the side, "In the fifth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, in 1855, he became a eunuch and entered the palace in 1856. In the sixth year of Tongzhi, , was granted the title of Second Superintendent. Empress Dowager Cixi gave her the name Lianying, commonly known as Lianying. During her stay in the palace, she won the respect of Empress Dowager Cixi. The Empress Dowager even broke the royal ancestral system of "the rank of eunuchs is limited to the fourth rank" and was granted the title of Second Rank. The chief eunuch, commanding all the eunuchs in the palace."

"In the eighth year of Tongzhi, that is, in 1869, Cixi's confidant eunuch An Dehai was killed. Li Lianying was awarded the Grand Stewardship and appointed 21-year-old Li Lianying as the Grand Steward."

After saying this, Chen Yang turned to look at the uncle and asked with a smile, "Uncle, let me ask you, how does a five-year-old child stay behind before purifying himself?"

"So, you were deceived by your ancestors!" Song Qingyun laughed beside him.

Hearing what Chen Yang said, everyone onlookers immediately understood that a five-year-old child who could not yet set up a tent could stay behind. This was really being deceived by his ancestors, so they all laughed.

The uncle looked at the laughing crowd, held Song Qingyun in one hand and Chen Yang in the other, and shouted to Chen Yang fiercely, "That's my ancestor, not your ancestor. How can I not know better than you!"

"Don't worry about whether my ancestor is Li Lianying or not. Anyway, you broke this bowl. You must pay me 50 yuan today, otherwise none of you will be able to leave!"
