In 2022, December 16th, there are still six days left before the winter solstice.
In a Chinese-style courtyard house with lake view in a community in the western suburbs of Hangzhou, Jing Kangshan first took off his reading glasses, put down the cell phone he had just hung up in his hand, looked at Suning who was concentrating on repairing porcelain and said, "Ah
Ning, I just made an appointment with Ah Zi on the phone. This year we will go back to Nancheng Jingyuan to celebrate the New Year."
"Oh? Is he sure he can come back?" Suning looked up at Jing Kangshan in surprise, and couldn't help but express his biggest worry. You must know that Jing Tong has no interest in going home for the New Year.
"Yes! I said I can make it back before the winter solstice." Jing Kangshan smiled happily and explained to Suning that he had not seen Jing Tao for many years.
"Okay! We'll rush back early tomorrow morning, and let Jingyuan Scenic Area stop operating, and repair the entire Jingyuan." Although Suning knew that Jingzi would definitely not come back, he still didn't want Jingkangshan to feel so soon.
I was disappointed, so I told my arrangement with a smile.
"Okay! Finally we can have a reunion year."
"Grandpa, are you still asking about the inscriptions and postscripts on that half volume?"
"Yes! There has been no news at all for so many years."
"Grandpa, maybe there will be news soon."
"Well, our Jing family will never give up anyway."
Although Suning knew that the half volume of inscriptions and postscripts was in the hands of Si Qing's father, he did not know the specific address of Si Qing's hometown. Naturally, he did not want to have too much contact with Si Qing. In addition, Jing Kangshan had been with him for many years.
Under his careful care, his body is very healthy, so Suning is not too eager to find this half volume of inscriptions and postscripts.
The next day, Suning first put the luggage he had packed in advance in the trunk of the car, and then took his boss grandfather to his hometown in Nancheng. At this time, Suning's car had already been changed to look up to U8, and it was entrusted with the relationship from
The experimental model obtained by BYD is mainly because Suning has already been thirsty for a long time. This car really allows the Chinese people to see a little hope for domestically produced cars.
"Aning, is this car really a domestic car?" Jing Kangshan also looked at Suning's tram curiously, feeling that it was much better than those Mercedes-Benz cars from Suning.
"Yes! And it's a new energy electric vehicle. This car finally gives the Chinese people some hope."
"Yeah! It's not easy."
Suning's U8 is the first one on the market, so it is very impressive when driving on the road. Soon we passed the expressway from Hangzhou to Nancheng and arrived at our destination. At this time, the scenic spot Jingyuan was already there.
Since the park is closed for maintenance, there are naturally no tourists' vehicles competing with Suning for parking spaces.
"Uncle Jing, Aning, are you back?" Jingyuan's security guard quickly ran up to say hello. He heard the news early in the morning that Jing Kangshan and Suning were back for the New Year.
"Haha, yes! I have decided to celebrate the New Year in Jingyuan this year, and I will check out the conditions of these houses in Jingyuan." Jing Kangshan explained to the security guard with a kind look on his face.
"Aning, let me help you with your luggage." At this time, the security guard noticed Suning who was carrying the luggage, and quickly ran forward to help Suning.
"No need! Brother Fei, it's just two suitcases."
After the grandfather and grandson Jing Yutang were busy for a while, it was already noon. Suning quickly ran into the kitchen and started making lunch. When he called back yesterday, he had already asked the staff here to prepare various kinds of lunch.
There were no ingredients, so Suning quickly prepared three dishes and one soup for the grandfather and grandson.
After the meal, Suning was clearing away the dishes on the dining table, looking at Jing Kangshan in front of him and explaining, "Grandpa, I will repair a blue and white plate from the Yuan Dynasty later. You can just go out and walk around a few times."
"Oh? Is it the blue and white mandarin duck and lotus pond pattern flower mouth plate you mentioned last time?" Jing Kangshan, who had eaten and drank enough, looked at Suning with surprise on his face, because he knew that this was a great national treasure.
"Yes! I just sent it back from London the day before yesterday. I heard that the Palace Museum has a similar one in its collection."
"That's fine! I'll visit my neighbor's house later."
The Yuan blue and white plate that Suning mentioned was very badly damaged. It was also a big job for Suning, who is now an art master. Moreover, Suning did not want to use the most common gold repair technique. He felt that such a repair would be too sorry for this returning artist.
It’s a national treasure, so Suning is going to try its best to restore it so that it leaves no regrets.
Sitting alone on his own dedicated workbench, he didn't need to wear any glasses at all due to his physique. It was impossible for any so-called subtleties to escape his own eyes. Then Suning slowly entered a state of selflessness, feeling
The porcelain in her hand is cuter than any other woman in her hand, and the pieces of porcelain in her hand feel like living elves.
Seeing his little grandson selflessly starting the repair work, Jing Kangshan smiled silently and turned around to leave. This little grandson has always been his greatest pride, and he has indeed managed to nourish his mind and mouth at the same time.
So Jing Kangshan, with a face full of relief, walked out quietly, preparing to open the door of his courtyard to visit his old neighbor.
...
What a coincidence that the heroine Si Qing also came to Jingyuan at this time, and then found that Jingyuan had been temporarily closed. Finally, after much persuasion, she was able to spend the 80 yuan ticket money as she wished.
I walked into this antique scenic manor with an extremely depressed face.
In fact, she has heard about a very good scenic spot in the suburbs of Nancheng over the years, but for so many years she has been like a clockwork machine, constantly forcing herself to work hard in the bank, and finally
She became an account manager in just three years, so it was her first time to come to this "broken garden" in front of her.
I came here this time because I just took over a customer from a resigned account manager. This customer named Zhao Feng borrowed 500,000 yuan from their Nancheng Commercial Bank. When the current repayment date comes, the amount is owed.
The customer Zhao Feng suddenly disappeared, which shows that this customer Zhao Feng is a real old scammer, so Si Qing came here this time to find the guarantor and the lender's wife Chen Lianzhi to collect the debt.
When Si Qing walked into the interior of this Jingyuan, she couldn't help but feel a little pleasantly surprised, because she found that the Chinese-style courtyard houses in front of her were worth a lot of money at first glance. If the guarantor or borrower owned a house here,
Property rights, then their five hundred thousand loan from Nancheng Commercial Bank is secured.
I saw Si Qing taking out his mobile phone to take pictures of these single-family courtyard houses in front of him, while calling and sending messages to acquaintances to inquire about the valuation of these Chinese-style courtyard houses. He only waited until he passed the door of a house and used his mobile phone to
The screen unexpectedly found that the door had opened from the inside. Si Qing, who was suddenly relaxed, could not help but imagine that a long-legged Prince Charming would appear, but soon Si Qing saw it through the screen of his mobile phone.
A long-legged... old man...
"Huh? Girl, who are you looking for?" Jing Kangshan asked in surprise as he looked at the girl taking pictures with his mobile phone.
"Ah? Uncle, where does Chen Lianzhi live?" Si Qing quickly put down his cell phone in embarrassment and looked at Jing Kangshan in front of him with a smile on his face and asked.
"Lian Zhi? You live across the lake." Jing Kangshan pointed directly at the shop across the lake and said.
"Thank you, uncle."
Looking at the back of the beautiful girl turning away in front of him, Jing Kangshan suddenly felt something in his heart. Then he remembered that his two grandsons didn't have girlfriends yet. He looked back at the man who was selflessly repairing the porcelain there.
Regarding the direction of his little grandson, Jing Kangshan thought about it for a while but gritted his teeth and returned to the courtyard again.
"Ah Ning! Ah Ning!" Jing Kangshan, who had returned, immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Ah? Grandpa, what happened again?" Su Ning was frightened and suddenly his hands trembled, and he responded to Jing Kangshan in a depressed voice.
"Aning, go to your sister Chen's place and help me get a bag of tea." Jing Kangshan felt that the things he was considering were more important, so he still asked Suning in a loud voice.
"Grandpa, didn't I tell you that I'm busy? Why don't you just go for a walk by yourself?" At this time, Suning said a little depressed, feeling that Jing Kangshan was just an old kid now.
"What's wrong! Aning, I can't control you now?" Jing Kangshan came to Suning and suddenly asked with wide eyes.
"Uh? Okay! Okay! Okay! I'll go now! My respected grandpa, what kind of tea do you want to drink?" Suning could only put down the pieces of porcelain in his hand, dumbfounded, then stood up and looked at the old man in front of him with a smile.
Child.
"Dahongpao."
"Okay! My respected grandpa, please wait a moment!" Suning reluctantly put down the pieces of porcelain in his hand, then got up and ran out of the courtyard quickly.
Seeing that the little grandson was finally fooled, Jing Kangshan lay down on the lounge chair in the corridor triumphantly, imagining that his grandson was about to have a chance encounter with a girl. He felt that his plan and magical operation were so perfect.
But just as Jing Kangshan's butt touched the reclining chair beneath him, he saw his little grandson coming back panting.
"Grandpa, here you go! The Dahongpao you want." Suning pretended to be breathing heavily and handed a package of Dahongpao to the confused Jing Kangshan.
"Huh? So fast? Did you fly there?" Thinking that in less than a minute, Suning could actually run back and forth?
"You ran over! It's guaranteed to be the top Dahongpao." Suning directly put the Dahongpao in Jing Kangshan's hand.
"Humph! I don't believe it! I want to check it carefully." Jing Kangshan still opened the paper bag in his hand with doubts on his face, feeling more and more that the grandson in front of him was dishonest.
"Just take a look! Then I'll go back and repair the market."
"Huh? This Dahongpao is really good! It seems that Lianzhi is finally willing to buy good products instead of defective products that fool tourists." Jing Kangshan showed a surprised expression when he opened the paper package, and he couldn't help but feel satisfied.
He laughed, but he still couldn't understand that his grandson's movements were too fast.
"Yeah! Yes! Yes!" Suning, who had returned to the workbench, began to continue working while casually dealing with this somewhat inexplicable grandfather.
"No! Did you see a beautiful girl when you went to your sister Chen's place?" Jing Kangshan soon realized something was wrong, and then looked at Suning who returned to the workbench again and asked.
"Ah? I saw it! I saw it! They are as beautiful as flowers." Suning just took out a pack of Dahongpao from the space world. How could he be in the mood to go to Chen Lianzhi's place opposite, let alone see anything beautiful?
A girl, no matter how beautiful a girl is, is not as important as restoring a national treasure by herself.
"Hey! You are such a piece of dead wood! You don't know how to ask a girl for her contact information." At this time, Jing Kangshan patted his thigh with regret.
"Huh? Grandpa, after doing this for a long time, you are worried about your grandson and your daughter-in-law again?" At this time, Suning also belatedly noticed Jing Kangshan's intention.
"Hmph! Aning, you are already thirty-three this year. It's time to think about getting married and having children." Jing Kangshan looked at Suning helplessly, feeling that all of Suning's girlfriends were not suitable, and he only wanted this grandson to be able to
Stabilize the situation as soon as possible, "How many of your girlfriends are suitable for marriage? The one named Song Yi is quite good, but he is much older than you and has a child. He must give it to me before he dies.
How about having a great-grandson for fun?"
"Okay! I will consider this matter." Suning shook his head helplessly. Being urged to get married every day was really annoying.
"snort!"
...
At this time, Si Qing had already arrived at Chen Lianzhi's shop, and wanted to ask about Zhao Feng in a subtle way, "Madam boss, do you also sell lanterns in your shop?"
"Yes! The lanterns are made by my husband's lantern factory, and other handicrafts are made by other masters." At first, Chen Lianzhi did not doubt Si Qing's purpose, because their scenic spot was really busy, which was not the case in the original play.
That deserted and ruined garden.
"Oh? Boss lady, where is your husband now?"
"Do you know my husband?" Chen Lianzhicai realized something at this time, and then looked at Si Qing with a defensive look on his face.
"Ms. Chen, I am Si Qing, the account manager of Nancheng Commercial Bank. Your husband Zhao Feng loaned 500,000 yuan in our bank, and the guarantor's name is you, Ms. Chen." Si Qing stopped pretending at this time.
Instead, he took out his business card and handed it to Chen Lianzhi.
"That's it! I know! It's mainly because I've been too busy these days. I'll go to your bank to repay the loan tomorrow." Now Chen Lianzhi is a real rich woman, and she really doesn't look down upon this little money. It's true.
Because the scenic spot was too busy, she forgot about it.
"Ah? Then Ms. Chen, I'll be waiting for you at the bank tomorrow morning." Si Qing couldn't help showing an expression of surprise when he saw Chen Lianzhi in front of him being so cheerful.
"Well, it just so happens that our Jingyuan Garden is closed for renovations these days, so I have time to go over and take care of this matter."
"Ms. Chen, you are really a role model for our female generation. You can actually spend so much money at once." At this time, Si Qing couldn't help but flatter him. He felt that a powerful woman is really too cool.
Those who rely on men to feel sorry for themselves are a hundred times stronger.
"What's the point? We have a lot of tourists in Jingyuan, which means I have no future, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to your bank for a loan." Chen Lianzhi felt proud when he heard the Si Qing in front of him praise him.
He explained with a smile.
"Haha, Ms. Chen, I see there are quite a lot of products in your store. Can I take a look around?"
"Manager, you can do whatever you want."
After feeling relaxed, Si Qing naturally began to take a closer look. Since the guarantor in front of him was so refreshing and neat, he naturally wanted to consider buying some small gifts to repay this customer. Then he casually visited Chen Lianzhi's shop. Suddenly,
I saw a very beautiful handmade lantern, and there was a jade pendant hanging under the lantern. Speaking of it, it was Si Qing's fault. He went straight to touch the jade pendant, only to hear a crisp "pop" sound.
, the jade pendant fell directly to the ground and broke into two halves.
"Ah? Ms. Chen, this...I..." At this time, Si Qing could be said to be completely confused, and then turned around with a wry smile and looked at Chen Lianzhi for explanation.
"Manager Si, how could you be so careless?" In fact, Chen Lianzhi's jade pendant was damaged to begin with, and he had been worried about the high maintenance costs and was reluctant to repair it.
"Ms. Chen, I didn't expect that this jade pendant was not tied securely." Although it felt like something was wrong, Si Qing was still a little confused and wanted to explain.
"Okay! Manager Si, I won't blackmail you either! You just need to help me repair this jade pendant."
"Ah? Thank you very much, Ms. Chen."
"That's right! The grandsons of the Jing family across from my house are good at restoring antiques. You should go to their house and take a look. They must have returned by this time."
"Ah? That's good! I'll find someone to fix it for you now."
The smart Si Qing was certainly aware of the anomaly in this matter, but thinking that Chen Lianzhi promised to go to the bank to repay the loan tomorrow, and even if it was confirmed that this matter was a porcelain incident, the other party's request was not too excessive.
Qing gritted his teeth and decided to take advantage of this hidden loss.
Returning again to the Chinese-style courtyard opposite Chen Lianzhi, Si Qing unexpectedly found that the door of the courtyard was open, and then stepped directly over the high threshold and walked into the courtyard. Then based on the information provided by Chen Lianzhi, he shouted loudly, "Grandpa Jing?
"
At this time, Jing Kangshan was sitting on the recliner in the corridor and sulking, tasting the top-quality Dahongpao "bought" by his grandson. Then he looked at Si Qing in front of him with a face full of astonishment and surprise and said, "Uh? Girl, what's wrong?
Is it you?"
"Hello! You must be Grandpa Jingkangshan Jing?" Si Qing asked with a smile, looking at the leisurely Jingkangshan in front of him.
"Uh? I'm Jing Kangshan, what can I do for you?"
"Grandpa Jing, my name is Si Qing, and I am the account manager of Nancheng Commercial Bank. I just broke one of Chen Lianzhi's jade pendants in the store opposite, so can you help me repair it?"
"Oh? Show it to me." Jing Kangshan doubtfully reached out to take the jade pendant in Si Qing's hand.
"Yes, it can be repaired! But there may be traces of repairs." Jingkangshan knew that Si Qing had been touched by a touch of his hand, but he was not prepared to expose his neighbor Chen Lianzhi.
"Okay! No problem! As long as it can be repaired."
"Haha, Aning! Aning! Aning!" Jing Kangshan shouted at the top of his voice with a wicked smile on his face.
"What's wrong? Have you finished drinking Dahongpao?" Suning, who was busy, felt really depressed. She didn't know what happened to Jingkangshan today.
"Aning, come out quickly! We have a guest at home."
At this time, Suning felt a headache and put down the repair work in his hands. Then he got up and walked out with a depressed expression. However, when he saw the so-called guest at the door, Suning couldn't help showing a surprised expression.
Realizing that Jing Kangshan was actually trying to bring himself and Si Qing together, he suddenly felt that he and this Si Qing might be really destined.
"Hey! This little girl asked you to help him repair the jade pendant." Jing Kangshan proudly handed the jade pendant directly to Suning and said.
"Oh? It may take three days, and the maintenance fee is four thousand yuan." Suning looked at the damaged jade pendant, and then told Si Qing a time and price.
"Girl, what did you say?" Jing Kangshan then turned to look at Si Qing and asked.
"Huh? So expensive?" Of course, the young worker would be a little surprised by this quotation.
"Girl, repairing this jade pendant is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also requires the use of gold powder. This is what everyone often calls gold repair, so the price is naturally very high." Suning explained without any impatience. After all, it was still
Si Qing needs to make his own decision.
"Okay! Just can you speed it up as much as possible? It's best to fix it tomorrow. Besides, I can add money."
In fact, the reason why Si Qing was so eager to repair the jade pendant as soon as possible was because she realized that Chen Lianzhi was a very extraordinary woman, and it was too easy for Chen Lianzhi to agree to repay the money today, which made Si Qing feel that Chen Lianzhi was not there.
Playing tricks on her, and then thinking about repairing the jade pendant as soon as possible, so that I can personally take Chen Lianzhi back to the bank to repay the money tomorrow morning.
"This..." Of course, Suning didn't know what Si Qing was thinking. He looked at the jade pendant in his hand again, and then reluctantly agreed, "Okay! I'll work overtime for you today! I promise.
You can get it tomorrow morning, and I’ll charge you a thousand yuan for the expedited fee.”
"Okay! Give me a WeChat account, and I'll transfer the money to you first." Si Qing was still very reluctant to part with 5,000 yuan at once.
"Grandpa, just use your WeChat."
"Huh! How did I, an old man, get WeChat? It's not easy for a little girl to work and earn money. You can just give them a half." At this time, Jing Kangshan immediately got up and left the courtyard, just to give Suning
He Si clears the space.
"..." Seeing his old grandfather Jing Kangshan, Suning had no choice but to go back to the house and take out his mobile phone, then handed it to Si Qing, who was full of little stars, and said, "Girl, you yourself
Once the operation is completed, just give me two thousand yuan."
"Ah? Thank you so much." At this time, Si Qing quickly took the mobile phone from Suning in surprise.
