As soon as Xu Chuan's words came out, the atmosphere in the entire study became awkward.
Chen Muyu looked at the two old men in front of him and barely managed to hold back his laughter.
Xu Chuan was completely unaware, "What are you looking at me for? Just two old wall lamps?"
Perhaps he is still a little confused as to why his two uncles look at him with such eyes.
“You, get out of here!”
Xu Sifeng pulled Xu Chuan's clothes out, his face full of dissatisfaction.
“Second uncle, did you take the wrong medicine?” Xu Chuan was not willing to go out.
"roll roll roll!"
Xu Sihai waved his hand impatiently.
Xu Chuan's neck shrank, and he didn't know where he offended these two old men. He dared to talk back to Xu Sifeng, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Xu Sihai.
He turned around and glared at Chen Muyu, and then he retreated gruntingly.
Xu Sifeng stepped forward and closed the door to the study room, "This kid has no integrity!"
“Uncle Xu, you are childish!” Chen Muyu smiled and relaxed the atmosphere.
This Xu Chuan is really funny. He scolds the old wall lamp in front of others, and they are so cool. Isn't this asking for a beating?
Even though they knew that he might have done it unintentionally, Xu Sihai and Xu Sifeng were still a little unhappy, and they didn't think much of this guy.
“Xiaoyu, please leave him alone!”
Xu Sifeng pointed to the two wall lamps on the table, "Take a good look at them. Are these really just handicrafts? They have no value at all?"
Both of them looked at Chen Muyu, and Xu Sihai didn't know whether he was smiling or not.
Chen Muyu has one head and two big heads. Looking at Xu Sifeng's appearance, it doesn't look like he is joking with him. It seems that he really thinks this thing is valuable.
But you can’t tell lies without conscience, right?
“Uncle Xu, do you think it is special? What specifically do you think is special about it?” Chen Muyu did not answer directly, but first tried to test it tactfully.
Xu Sifeng pinched his chin, "I said it is special, of course it has its own special features. These two lamps seem to be just ordinary handicrafts on the outside, but when I light them up every night, I feel refreshed.
Extraordinarily peaceful, my mental state has been obviously much better recently than before, as if I was more than ten years younger!"
"hehe!"
Xu Sihai was very happy beside him, "You are ten years younger, I really didn't notice it!"
Indeed, Xu Sifeng is not much younger than Xu Sihai, but he looks thinner.
“I mean, mental state, mental age!” Xu Sifeng said very seriously.
“Forget it, I won’t argue with you, let Xiaoyu do the talking!”
Xu Sihai waved his hand. The two had obviously been arguing for a long time and let Chen Muyu do justice.
If you support this, you will offend that. If you support that, you will offend this.
However, as long as this is not a test question that my father-in-law set for me, it will be fine.
Picking up one of the glazed lamps, Chen Muyu looked at it carefully for a moment, then pulled out the system and scanned it.
"Huh?"
Chen Muyu raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Xiaoyu, don’t speak out of conscience just to please your father-in-law!” Xu Sihai blew his beard, thinking that Chen Muyu was going to put on a show.
Chen Muyu laughed dryly.
“It’s okay, Xiaoyu, if you have anything to say, say anything!” Xu Sifeng gave Chen Muyu a small reassurance.
“Uncle, uncle!” Chen Muyu held the colored glass lamp with a serious expression, “These two lamps do seem to be just handicrafts, and they are also very common modern ordinary handicrafts...”
Hearing this, Xu Sihai smiled, but Xu Sifeng's face was full of disappointment.
"but……"
Suddenly, Chen Muyu added another sentence.
There is also a but?
Xu Sihai was stunned for a moment. Could this little guy be trying to make up a story?
“But this pair of lamps is probably more than just a pair of ordinary glazed lamps!”
Chen Muyu weighed the colored glaze lamp in his hand and led the two of them to the table, "Look, the wooden base and the colored glaze lampshade shouldn't be this heavy!"
"Um?"
Xu Sihai thought Chen Muyu was going to make up a story. When he heard this, he quickly picked up another glazed lamp and weighed it. Indeed, it was a little heavy, but it was not that obvious.
“Get a knife!”
Xu Sihai shouted to Xu Sifeng, and Xu Sifeng quickly found a paper knife from the bookcase and handed it over.
Xu Sihai held the knife, and his whole temperament immediately changed, as if he had transformed into a rigorous scholar.
The glass lamp is placed on the table, and I want to take off the lampshade first.
But the lampshade was set on the base and was very strong, and he was afraid of damaging it. The paper knife was not easy to use, so he couldn't get anything done after working on it for a long time.
“Bang!”
Xu Sihai also seemed a little embarrassed and just threw the colored glass lamp to the ground.
The glazed lampshade fell apart instantly, making Xu Sifeng next to him feel distressed.
This is a bit too rough.
It was just a glass lampshade, which was no pity at all. Xu Sihai used a knife to push away the broken glass and picked up the wooden base.
This base is shaped like a lotus platform and is about fifteen centimeters thick. It is indeed a bit heavy when held in the hand. Now that the lampshade is removed, the feeling is more obvious.
This is not expensive wood. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so heavy.
After putting it in my hands for a few turns, there are traces of splicing on the base, and it is not a whole piece of wood as imagined.
Because it is painted, it is difficult to find traces of the splicing. Most people just look at the appearance and regard it as an ordinary handicraft. How can they study it so carefully?
Even a veteran like Xu Sihai was deceived by the ordinary appearance of this wall lamp.
Scrape off the paint, and the gaps at the joints will be clearly exposed.
Xu Sihai picked up a paper knife and stabbed it in. After tinkering for a long time, the entire base finally cracked.
Xu Sifeng quickly stretched his head over and saw a small copper lamp in the shape of a lotus embedded in the wooden base.
The lotus-shaped lamp body is about the size of an adult's fist, and is used to hold oil. A small stamen protrudes from the small mouth on the top of the lotus bud, which is the wick.
This wick was leaked into the glass lampshade before, so the glass lamp can be used normally.
Xu Sihai carefully placed the oil lamp on the table, took out a pair of reading glasses from his pocket and put them on, then put the oil lamp in the palm of his hand and studied it carefully.
“Xiaoyu, you are really amazing!”
After a long while, Xu Sihai clicked his tongue, with a bit of joy on his face, "If you hadn't woken me up, I would have been blinded!"
“Look, let me just say this thing is not simple!”
Xu Sifeng was also very surprised. He also didn’t expect that there was a cave inside this glass lantern.
Hurryly grabbing another glazed lamp, Xu Sifeng threw it to the ground.
The glazed lamp broke into pieces at the sound. He picked up the base and followed Xu Sihai's example to pry the base open.
