Three smiles

Wang Sanxiao realized that it was almost nine o'clock after breakfast, and he took Mu Xixi into Xiong Da's car. Wei Cong walked out slowly, and said to Mu Xixi: "When you get there, you need to improve your eyesight. Brother Xiao supports you, don't embarrass him."

Sitting on the seat, Mu Xixi disapproved: "My ability will only make Brother Xiao look good!"

"Must!" Wang Sanxiao praised him, raised the car window, halfway through it, suddenly remembered something, poked his head out, and looked at Wei Cong with a smile: "Think about what I told you last night. .”

Wei Cong frowned: "You..."

As soon as he spoke, Wang Sanxiao already retracted his head, raised the car window neatly, and leaned comfortably on the back of the seat: "Xiong Da, drive."

Digging out old houses is an antique lingo, which means collecting antiques in old houses with a certain age. Antiques are hidden in every corner.

When they arrived at the destination, the antique dealer had already arrived. Wang Sanxiao pulled Mu Xixi out of the car, and said with a smile, "Come to Xixi, let me introduce you. This is Boss Li from Panjiayuan Suihanzhai."

Mu Xixi stepped forward very politely, held the other person's hand, and smiled: "Hello, Boss Li, my name is Mu Xixi, just call me Xixi."

"Hello, I'm Li Hanbai. It's a small shop, not really a boss." Li Hanbai turned his head to Wang San and said with a smile, "Sure enough, it's the child brought by the third young master. He's very energetic and youthful."

"Then I'll call you Brother Han, Brother Han is over the prize," Mu Xixi held his hand, and found that Li Hanbai looked handsome and weak, but his palms were very rough, like a rough man who had been doing farm work all year round.

An old man in plain clothes was waiting at the gate of the small courtyard, hunched over, and said with a smile, "You three, come in and have a look."

Wang Sanxiao took the lead to enter the door with a cane in his hand, and almost fell down by the steps of this house as soon as he crossed the threshold. When he looked back, hey guy, the yard was even lower than the field outside.

The old man quickly reached out to help him, with a poor smile on his face: "I'm really sorry, the road outside has been repaired repeatedly, and the road has been built higher than the ground at home."

"Then your house has to be padded, so that it won't be flooded when it rains?" Mu Xixi has never seen such a shabby small courtyard. He supported Wang Sanxiao, turned his head and looked up and down in surprise, and found this alley. It must have a history of hundreds of years, and it looks very strange nestled among the tall buildings all around.

Li Hanbai's lameness experience is much richer than Wang Sanxiao's. He walked steadily into the courtyard, saw Mu Xixi's face full of novelty, and explained in a soft voice: "This alley won't exist for a long time. I heard that the approval document has been issued. The demolition will begin soon.”

It happened that there were a few shirtless young men in the yard who were moving furniture out. Mu Xixi knew at a glance that the old house was probably going to be demolished, so this old man who loves collecting was willing to sell all the antiques at home.

Looking at the size of the yard and imagining the old man's collection, Mu Xixi chuckled and said, "The demolition fee is a huge sum, and the old man wants to pay it!"

Li Hanbai laughed and shook his head lightly: "If you are lost in ancient times, you will be poor, he can't post."

The old man’s yard was moved like a kennel, but after all, he is a collector, so the interior must be decorated very artistically, Mu Xixi thought so, followed Wang Sanxiao into the main room, and was surprised, unexpectedly The old man's collection room is more like a kennel than a yard.

I saw two rooms big and small. Except for the kitchen in the corner of the small room, the rest of the place was full of antiques. It is full of things, and the ground is even more broken. There are all kinds of high-end goods, and there is not even a place to plug in.

Mu Xixi was afraid that he would damage the old man's treasure with his clumsy hands, so he stood at the door and stopped going in, but Wang Sanxiao strode in without any scruples, sat down on a rosewood chair, raised his legs, Waving the smoke and dust in front of his nose, he sneezed, wrinkled his nose and said, "What's the smell in your room, can you clean it if you have nothing to do? The living people will be smoked to death by you!"

The old man didn't care about his image when he was old, he sniffed around in front of him with his nose shaking, and smiled flatteringly: "Young Master San was joking, this is the fragrance of antiques that has been passed down through the ages!"

"Fart your mother!" Wang San scolded with a smile, "The antiques were all in the palace back then, and the catkins of the concubines and concubines were rubbed, and all that was left was the aroma of pepper orchids. You smell like a foot. Son, probably the newly bought mouse goods have not been cleaned up yet."

"Oh, San Shao, you can't blindly put a big hat on me," the old man said disrespectfully, "How many years have we known each other, and I have always followed the law and never bought things of unknown origin. It is an orderly inheritance..."

"Don't be so wordy," Wang Sanxiao was so irritated by the dirty smell in the room, he shook his head impatiently at Li Hanbai, "it's rare that Boss Li is interested in your antiques, so why don't you hurry up and tidy them up?" , Take out all the top ones?"

The old man sang to Wang San with a strange smile, then turned his head and stretched out his hand to Li Hanbai to signal: "Boss Li, this way, the most remarkable thing here is this Ming-style rosewood furniture..."

Li Hanbai worked meticulously, inspecting the furniture carefully, and Mu Xixi leaned forward to observe the beautiful patterns of rosewood at close range, and praised: "It's very good."

A young man who was helping to move passed by outside the door. He put his head in his head and asked in Shandong dialect, "You guys are buying antiques?"

The old man waved his hands viciously: "What are you looking at, move your things!"

"Keep your eyes open, how can you call it blind?" The young man smiled playfully, pointing to the old furniture in the room, "Isn't this the huanghuali, I have plenty in my hometown."

Wang Sanxiao was holding his nose and sitting on a chair to endure the day, when he heard this and raised his eyes to look at the young man, he felt refreshed all of a sudden.

Without him, the young man looks really pretty.The shirtless upper body has strong muscles, the honey-colored skin glows charmingly in the sun, and a pair of smart almond-shaped eyes reveal a smile, making people feel good just looking at them.

He looked over with a smile: "Let me guess, your hometown is...Zaozhuang?"

"Sight!" The young man laughed, showing two pointed canine teeth, pointing to a table of eight immortals, and opened his mouth to ask, "How much is this big huanghuali table?"

"Do you understand the rules?" The old man frowned suddenly, jumped to push him out, and yelled, "Experts are doing business, do you have the right to ask the price? Get out of here!"

Wang Sanxiao hurriedly raised his hand to stop his scolding, and said flatly: "What are you arguing about? Go sell your antiques." He turned his face and waved to the young man, "Zaozhuang used to be an important town, and there were many good things among the people. call?"

Although the young man doesn't understand antiques, he has been struggling in society for several years. At the very least, he is good at observing words and expressions. Xinghe'er can see that this quiet man is the highest in the room, and immediately puts his shoulders on his shoulders. After throwing the things on the table, he rushed over: "Boss, my surname is Zheng, and my name is Zheng Xiaohu."

"Oh, little tiger," Wang Sanxiao took out a business card and handed it to him, "My next Wang Sanxiao is a man who walks around the streets to help people buy and sell antiques. Cans, you can bring them to me, and I will give you a good estimate."

Zheng Xiaohu took the business card with both hands and looked at it, then tucked it into his trousers pocket with a smile: "Hey, okay, Brother Xiao, you are so bold!"

Mu Xixi stood by the side, staring blankly at Wang Sanxiao's new connection, but he felt a sense of loss in his heart, and thought very dubiously: I have such a close relationship with him, so I call him Brother Xiao, you alone A country bumpkin who doesn't understand farts, who has known him for less than 3 minutes, why is he also called Brother Xiao?

In the end, Li Hanbai bought more than 70 odd pieces of antiques. The big ones were as tall as a person's chest, and the small ones were snuff bottles no bigger than a palm.

Walking out of the small courtyard, Li Hanbai smiled at Wang San: "The commission will be called to you today and tomorrow."

"Whatever," Wang Sanxiao knew him very well, and smiled back while walking, "Are you still in arrears with me?"

"It's hard to say." Li Hanbo looked at the dilapidated small courtyard and the alleys with gray walls and tiles with great emotion, and shook his head, "You can't be poor if you know the ancients, but you will be poor if you miss the ancients. Oh, yes, you asked me to restore it last time." The bronze mirror..."

Wang San smiled with a heartbeat: "Is it fixed?"

"Hurry up, that bronze mirror of yours is relatively complicated in workmanship, and it's not easy to repair," Li Hanbai said, "You have to give me another month in terms of time."

Wang San smiled and raised his eyelids, jokingly said: "The money will be deducted."

"Then I won't do it for you," Li Hanbai gave him a look with a smile.

Wang San smiled wickedly and took advantage of him: "You never did anything to me!"

"Tsk," Li Hanbai is a gentle scholar. He blushed immediately when he heard the words. Bar……"

Mu Xixi followed behind the two, looking at this and then that, lowered his head a little depressed, and kicked the stones on the road while walking, thinking how could Wang Sanxiao just open his mouth to tease people?This Boss Li is nothing like Grandpa Qi, what kind of taste does he have?

A small stone rolled to the foot, Wang San smiled and looked back at Mu Xixi, and suddenly gasped in surprise: "Xi Xi, why are you walking with a limp?"

"What?" Mu Xixi didn't understand for a while, and after two seconds of stunned, he suddenly realized that he was following the steps of the two disabled people in front of him, and he had learned to be a fake cripple!

Hastily jumped on the spot twice, retrieved the two long legs, and said angrily: "Isn't it all learned from you!"

Wang Sanxiao gracefully turned around on the spot, held the cane in his left hand and raised his arms, using a kind of musical aria, said leisurely: "Why haven't you learned how gentle I am?"

The ridicule in his tone drove Mu Xixi crazy, but he knew he was wrong. He was so depressed that he wanted to grab the ground with his head. He blushed and walked a few steps, and got into the car, thinking angrily: Don't waste such a good word as gentle and elegant. son!

The truck of the moving company over there was full and started slowly. Zheng Xiaohu ran over, wiped his sweat, showed his smooth forehead, and said with a smile: "Hey, brother Xiao, I'll go back to my hometown when the wages are over. Show me the old stuff."

Wang San smiled and nodded: "Okay."

"Then I'm leaving," Zheng Xiaohu turned his head and ran towards the truck, waved his hand from a distance, trotted a few steps, his vigorous body was like a nimble monkey, grasping the railing on the truck body and swinging high and high. Jumped up, and in a blink of an eye climbed onto the moving truck with hands and feet.

Watching the truck drive away with a load of broken wood, Wang Sanxiao turned around and got into the car with a smile on his lips.

Mu Xixi looked at Li Hanbai's car through the window: "Brother Xiao, this Boss Li has very good eyesight. The old man has so many antiques, all he picks out are cheap but of good quality."

"That's an old fritter," Wang San smiled lightly, "Porcelain miscellaneous calligraphy and painting, bamboo and wood tooth corners, he is proficient in everything, the rare thing is that he has no greed, he is someone who has seen big winds and waves."

The two cars passed by, and Mu Xixi watched Li Hanbai's side face flash past, and felt a strange feeling in his heart. He had no reason to think that although this man was thin and frail, he was still disabled, but he had a unique style. It gives people a kind of warmth like spring breeze.
