Tian Shao took Yu Lili and Lan Lan around the campus. In fact, the scenery on campus now is far from comparable to that of later generations, but this time the main purpose was to let Lan Lan see what the university is like.
At noon, Tian Shao took them to the cafeteria to eat.
After Lan Lan sat down, she said to Tian Shao: "Sister, this place is so beautiful. I will also come here to study in the future."
Tian Shao said happily: "Then you have to study hard, otherwise you won't be able to study here."
"Sister, I will study hard and get admitted here in the future."
After dinner, Tian Shao and Yu Lili said: "Sister Lili, the children's household registration follows their mother's. If you can return to Sijiu City, Lanlan's household registration can also be transferred back to Sijiu City."
If Lan Lan's household registration was in Jiang Province, she wouldn't be able to study here unless she was outstanding. But if her household registration was transferred back to Sijicheng City, it would be relatively easier to get admitted to Beijing University. The regional differences are sometimes quite frustrating.
Yu Lili was silent for a while and said: "I will think about it carefully."
After lunch, the siblings were about to go back. When they arrived at the gate, Yu Lili took out a palm-sized box from her bag and said, "Xiao Shao, this is the same thing that Xiaochun and I went out to collect the day before yesterday. You
Let’s see how it goes?”
Tian Shao took the box and opened it, and saw a piece of jade pendant with a luan bird and cloud pattern inside. It was very exquisitely made and was white in color, with some areas having a clear color and a hint of red and yellow.
Tian Shao has never been exposed to antiques. The few genuine items in his grandfather's hands were well hidden. If it weren't for buying a house in Shanghai, she wouldn't have known that she still had antiques. But even if he is an antique novice, Tian Shao
Shao still saw that this jade pendant was unusual.
Tian Shao closed the box, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Sister Lili, this jade pendant is very beautiful, I like it very much."
Yu Lili secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as you like it. This jade pendant cost twelve yuan. If you don't like it, the money will be wasted."
"It's okay. If you think the things are good, just accept them."
Yu Lili shook her head and said: "I asked Grandpa Tu to give me a hand. I promised him that Xiaochun will buy him two bottles of good wine every month from now on."
Yu Xiaochun explained: "One winter, the old man went out to drink with others and got drunk. When he came home, he fell unconscious on the road. My sister happened to see him and asked someone to carry him home. Because of this, the old man has been
Remember my sister’s goodness.”
Tian Shao said that there was a connection here, otherwise Mr. Tu would not be able to just drink and help with the work without any reward.
Lanlan yawned profusely and was unwilling to let Yu Xiaochun hold her, so Yu Lili had no choice but to go over and take care of the child.
Tian Shao handed a thick document bag to Yu Xiaochun and said: "Here is two thousand yuan. Come to me when you use it up. In addition, there are two things I want to ask you for help with."
"Sister, if you need anything, just ask me."
What Tian Shao told Yu Xiaochun was not complicated. The first was to ask about the masons who knew how to build courtyards, and the second was to ask about the masters who were outstanding in embroidery.
This year, Sijiu City has not been completely opened up. When a large number of educated youths return to the city next year, Sanya and Sankui can be brought to Beijing. But before that, the house in Sanyan Hutong needs to be repaired. It will take a few years.
There are more people selling houses, so when the time comes, I will buy a few more courtyard houses. If you search widely, you will always be able to sell a few houses that will not be demolished.
Yu Xiaochun patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, sister, I promise to help you handle these two things."
Tian Shao hummed and said, "I'm not in a hurry. Please help me collect my things. By the way, if I encounter rosewood or agarwood furniture, you can also help me with two sets. Waiting for my house
It’s been renovated and will be used when the time comes.”
Yu Xiaochun asked in surprise: "Sister, what you bought is a house. Is it a big house that can accommodate hundreds of people?"
"There are sixteen rooms, and it can accommodate more than 20 or 30 people."
When Yu Xiaochun heard this, he immediately said: "Sister, you will be my biological sister from now on. Sister, if you ask me to go east, I will never go west."
She casually took out two to three thousand yuan, and then bought a big house in the capital. The back of this lady is incredible. Such thick thighs must be held firmly, the kind that would not be exchanged for gold.
When Yu Lili heard this, she came over with the sleeping Lan Lan in her arms, slapped him on the back of the head and said: "What are you talking about? Xiao Shao is one year younger than you, what do you mean by calling me sister? Quickly change those bad habits
Come here or I'll break your legs."
Yu Xiaochun could only beg for mercy.
After putting the three people on the bus, Tian Shao turned around and went back to school. Halfway through, she felt tired and sat on a stone chair to rest. After thinking about it, she took out the jade pendant from her bag and admired it.
Tian Shao looked at the jade pendant carefully. It looked like it was old. There were not so many fakes on the market now. She thought it should be genuine, but she didn't know whether it was from modern times or a long time ago.
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded: "Classmate Tian, where did your jade come from?"
Tian Shao was startled, but luckily she held the jade pendant firmly, otherwise she would have committed a sin if it fell to the ground and broke. She turned her head and found that the person speaking was an acquaintance. Tian Shao immediately stood up and said: "Teacher Zhang, why are you here?
"
Zhang Han's eyes fell on the jade pendant in Tian Shao's hand, and he smiled and said that he was a teacher in the archeology department of this school: "Classmate Tian, can you show me this jade pendant?"
Hearing that he was a teacher in the Department of Archeology, Tian Shao immediately handed over the jade pendant: "Professor, can you help me see if this is an antique?"
Teacher Zhang looked at it very carefully. After a while, he handed the jade pendant back to Tian Shao and said, "This is Hetian jade. Based on the workmanship and pattern, it should be from the Ming Dynasty."
"From the Ming Dynasty? It's really an antique."
Zhang Han nodded and said: "This is an ancient jade, which is of great research value. Xiao Shao, where did your jade come from?"
Tian Shao was in a good mood. Unexpectedly, she received a piece of ancient jade on her first order, which really opened the door to success. She would never tell the truth to Zhang Han, there was no way to tell the truth. She smiled and said: "My cousin gave it to me.
I liked it very much and accepted it.”
Zhang Han didn't see Yu Lili and Lan Lan just now. He thought it was really a gift from his cousin and didn't continue to ask. He smiled and said: "Classmate Tian, I still owe you roast duck. I will have someone give it to you in the evening."
Send it."
Tian Shao couldn't laugh or cry, she didn't take this matter to heart at all. But obviously Zhang Han didn't think so, he felt that what he said should be fulfilled. He was so busy that he forgot about it, but now that he thought about it, he naturally couldn't break his promise.
What can he do? Tian Shao can only accept it and say thank you.
That evening, Professor Zhang's students sent a roast duck to the dormitory.
Bao Yiqiu and Mu Ningzhen were surprised when they saw her accepting the roast duck, and asked: "Xiao Shao, didn't you say that eating people's mouths and taking advantage of people's hands are short-handed, and they will never accept anything given by others. Why did you make an exception today?"
Tian Shao explained the reason, and then said: "Don't you think it's too coincidental? Who would have thought that I would meet a professor from Peking University on the train. I always thought he taught junior high school or high school."
