The west wind and north wind were raging, and the haze was relatively serious, which was not suitable for outdoor sports. Roberto did not go out to see the scenery and play, and spent most of the day teaching Oscar Chinese and explaining ancient and modern Chinese culture.
Although Oscar has a flexible mind, because the Chinese language is broad and profound, an ordinary word can have N pronunciations and can have N meanings. The so-called drawing inferences from one example is completely inappropriate, and it is difficult to learn. Fortunately, the results are quite good, as long as you don't
Conversations involving too profound topics can be basically understood.
In the morning, Roberto gave Oscar a lesson first, then went to do indoor exercises, had lunch, and in the afternoon, rested in the guest room and watched the news, and then took a nap after watching the lunch news.
Oscar didn't have to attend Chinese class at noon and just played with his computer. Miro was also playing on the computer when he heard his phone ringing. He picked it up and saw a message. He couldn't help but smile and opened his eyes. He quickly turned off the computer and went back to his room to change clothes.
After tidying himself up, Milo informed Enzo, the old housekeeper, that his child was nearby. He would go take a walk with the child and he would call back if anything happened.
Enzo, the old butler, nodded with a smile, meaning one thing: Go quickly, don't keep the little girl waiting.
Oscar looked at Brother Milo pitifully: "Brother Milo, can you take me with you?"
"No, your Chinese is too poor. Stay in the hotel and learn Chinese conscientiously. When you can speak Chinese as fluently as English, you will have many opportunities to accompany the cute little girl for walks, meals and travels."
"I..." Oscar curled his lips. How many years and months will it take until he can speak Chinese as fluently as English?
Milo would not relent just because Oscar had a pitiful look in his eyes, leaving the poor child who wanted to be his follower and leaving in a carefree manner.
He took the elevator downstairs from the guest room and walked out of the hotel. The handsome young man ran straight across the street and looked around somewhere. He found his child under the eaves outside a store. The cute little Lele had a baby hanging on one shoulder.
He was carrying a backpack, carrying a foam box, and eating barbecue skewers.
The little Lolita wore a light purple coat, no scarf, and no dust mask. Her exposed face was pink and tender, with bright and black eyes, like an elf.
Finding the cute little loli, Milo's light blue eyes overflowed with a gentle smile, and he hurried over.
After an unpleasant incident occurred in the swimming pool, Le Yun stopped learning to swim in the middle. She went to the locker room to change clothes, retrieved her valuables and left. She walked to the place where the handsome Milo lived and went shopping.
She didn't eat anything at noon, so she bought some kebabs on the way to fill her stomach. Just halfway through eating, she saw handsome guy Milo running over, smiling and waving his little arms: "Handsome Milo, I'm here! You are handsome again.
"
The handsome guy is slender and tall, with fair complexion and a handsome face, black hair and blue eyes. He wears a royal blue knee-length windbreaker and a white scarf. He is elegant and noble, mysterious and cold, and has more style than a celebrity.
The smile in Milo's blue eyes couldn't be contained, and it overflowed all over his face. He quickly ran to the pink and cute little girl, took off the white scarf from his neck and tied it around the little one's neck: "Why don't you come out in such a cold day?
Wear a scarf and you won’t be afraid of frostbite.”
"I didn't feel cold." Le Yun was extremely sad. Why did everyone always say she was underdressed when they first saw her? She didn't feel cold, so she didn't want to wrap herself up like a cotton baby.
Milo couldn't help but wrap the scarf in a circle to cover the little Lolita's white and tender neck. He also used the excuse of helping her to style her hair, touched her little head, and raised the corners of her mouth happily: "It's better if you don't feel cold."
Wear something, defense is the most important."
Well, Le Yun accepted the lecture resignedly and raised the skewers higher: "Miro, do you want two skewers? A handsome guy who doesn't like skewers is not a good man."
"Of course." Milo was in a high mood. He took a bunch of spicy skewers and took one bite. He talked while eating: "Lele, when did you come? Have you had lunch?"
He did not help the little one carry a backpack. Xiao Lele said that her backpack was as important as the small bags carried by beauties. It contained her personal belongings and some essential gadgets for those who want to learn medicine.
"I came to the central area at the invitation of a friend to do something. After finishing my work, my friend had something to do, so I played by myself. I went to a swimming pool for a while and missed lunch time, so I decided to have snacks as my main meal."
"Naughty boy, how can you not eat a regular meal when you are growing? Let's go have something to eat. I know there is a small restaurant nearby that tastes very good."
Milo shook his head. Little Lele was already short. If he always skipped three meals a day, he would not be able to keep up with his nutrition. How could he grow taller?
Le Yun was not hungry, and would rather eat all kinds of snacks than go to eat. As a result, well, the handsome guy Milo's words "you won't grow taller if you don't eat" dug into her heart every minute, and she went to eat unwillingly.
The handsome guy chose a small restaurant with a northern local flavor. There were few people in the afternoon, it was relatively quiet, and the food was served quickly.
Milo was not only proud of having successfully brought the little Loli into a restaurant for dinner, but Little Lele's Achilles' heel was her height. She was sure to hit her right where she was, and the feeling of poking someone's Achilles' heel was quite good.
He had lunch, and to avoid embarrassment to little Lele Loli, he ate with him. Leyun was not polite, so she just chopped it quickly and finished half of the dish by herself. She left some for snacks, so she didn't go crazy.
Stuff something inside.
After coaxing the little Lolita kid to eat, Milo didn't have any objections to the rest. The two of them walked around to eat, and then the handsome guy sneaked into a big shopping mall and brought back a lot of snacks, plus a furry dog.
A fluffy, fat, long-eared rogue rabbit toy.
"Aw, Milo, I'm not a three-year-old child anymore." Holding a snow-white long-eared rabbit with a three-petal smile on its arms and a carrot, Le Yun really wanted to roll to the ground in protest.
Why does Luo always like to buy stuffed toys for her? She is not a little princess who loves to cry and can be coaxed with toys to make her happy. She is a female man who only likes to shake her fists, and cute stuffed toys do not match her.
"Hmm, I know that little Lele is not three years old, but thirteen years old and one year older. What does it matter? Little Lele can just hold the toy as a hand warmer."
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Look at the cute little elf-like loli holding a big rabbit, Milo smiling warmly, and little Lele holding a toy.
The child is the most beautiful and adorable. Letting her work as an advertising model selling toys can inspire the princess dream in everyone's heart and make her fall in love with plush toys.
Leyun's protest was ineffective, so she could only hug a big rabbit as a hand warmer. For this reason, she didn't talk to the handsome Milo for about five minutes and just ate snacks.
Little Lele showed a childish look, and Milo smiled brightly. He handed the delicious food to her and asked her to take the snacks to calm down her anger. He felt that when the little Loli bit the food hard, it must be like biting him to vent her anger.
When the two of them were having a good time shopping, Roberto woke up from a nap in the hotel. Oscar immediately complained: "Father, brother Milo forgot his friends when he saw sex. He abandoned his wife and son and left us happily to find his friends."
You guys, you are so arrogant, you don’t want us."
Roberto stroked his forehead: "Oscar, your idioms about forgetting friends and abandoning wife and children are totally useless. Go check the dictionary yourself and see the explanation. Enzo, has Milo's child been here?
?”
"I obviously used it correctly." Oscar wanted to cry, but he clearly expressed it perfectly.
Enzo, the old butler, could hardly hold back his laughter and reported to the old gentleman: "Sir, Master Milo's friend did not come to the hotel. Master Milo received a message saying that the Oriental girl was nearby. He went to take a walk with his friend. Just now
Not long ago, I called back and said that I would come back with my children to have dinner with my husband in the evening."
"Really?" Roberto was extremely happy, with a cheerful smile on his always serious face: "Enzo, inform the hotel butler to send the menu. We will study the dinner dishes carefully. We can't treat the beautiful and lovely oriental girl.
Discourteous."
"Yes, sir, I will inform the hotel's personal butler right away." Enzo happily agreed and immediately called the hotel's dedicated butler who arranged the VIP room.
The hotel's personal butler received the call and at the guest's request, quickly brought the menu to the VIP room and accompanied the guest to select dishes. For example, certain dishes in the Manchu-Han banquet required advance reservations and could not be made at that time, so the guests were entertained at short notice.
Needs to be discussed.
Oscar also joined in to contribute his opinion. The four of them made thousands of choices and worked for more than an hour before deciding on the menu. The hotel's personal butler took the order and arranged the private rooms.
Le Yun didn't know that because she accepted the invitation from handsome guy Milo to have dinner together, Roberto made great preparations in advance. She and the handsome guy walked around a few times and went to Panjiayuan to play.
It was too cold, so there were not as many vendors setting up stalls in Panjiayuan as there were in autumn. Since it was a weekend, it was not deserted.
This time, Le Yun simply wanted to gain experience, not just look for something with aura, so she did not go to the booths, but went to shops that specialize in antiques and old furniture.
Milo didn't want to buy anything. He just wanted to go shopping with his little friend. The little girl was very interested in old furniture and visited one house after another. She was very interested.
The little Loli didn't buy anything, she just admired it. Even if she had something she liked, she couldn't move it. They were all large furniture such as tables, chairs or chaise longues.
After visiting more than a dozen old furniture stores, I felt tired and moved to the antique store area.
After visiting several stores, she walked into an antique shop. Le Yun looked around and found an interesting thing - a jade Buddha sitting on a lotus platform.
The white jade Buddha sitting on the lotus platform is the Tathagata Buddha weighing flowers and smiling. It is only ten centimeters high. The lotus platform is about the size of a palm. It is exquisitely shaped and lifelike. It is priced at 12.99 million.
The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a Tang suit jacket, which fits the image of an old antique shop very well. He is always polite to customers, and he is not surprised by the arrival of a foreign friend.
When the petite girl asked to have a look at the Jade Buddha, he looked at her twice, put on gloves, carefully opened the glass cabinet, took out the Jade Buddha, and placed it on the table covered with red velvet for guests to appreciate antiques.
, calm down, take a step back, and ask the guests to appreciate it.
One of the rules of antique shops is that you cannot pick up antiques with your hands. In that case, if one party misses, the person responsible cannot be identified.
After the waiter stepped away a little, Le Yun picked up the Jade Buddha and picked up a small flashlight to look at it. From the top of the Jade Buddha's head to the lotus platform, she looked at it front and back, and then turned it over to look at the base of the lotus platform.
After reading it several times, Le Yun smiled: "This is not true, it is worth thirty thousand at most."
"Little girl, this is a mutton-fat jade Buddha. It has been professionally appraised." The waiter did not directly say that the young guest was talking nonsense and explained the facts seriously.
Milo stood next to the little Loli kid, and he had one thing in mind: no matter what she said, he believed it.
"My words may be hard to accept, but facts are facts. What is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true." Le Yun looked at the curtain at the back of the shop calmly and calmly expressed her opinion: "Professional appraisal
When extracting the sample, you scraped off some jade powder from the base and did the test, right? If you are not sure, you can ask your boss, I think he should know the identification process very well."
The young guest spoke resolutely, and the waiter looked at the young guest strangely. How did she know that the boss was in the store? The corner of his eyes slanted towards the door curtain leading to the inner room, and he hesitated. While he was hesitating, he raised the bead-woven door curtain, and the crisp handicraft
Amidst the clanging sound, an old man in about sixty years old in a blue Tang suit lifted the curtain and came out.
The waiter hurriedly ran over to greet him. The old man waved his hand and walked towards the counter. The gentle tapping sound of his leather shoes on the floor was slow and rhythmic.
Walking to the counter, Mr. Ji looked at the two customers again. Just now he only saw their general outlines. When he took a closer look, one was a foreigner and the other was an Oriental. The girl with an Oriental face was as white and tender as jade, and her skin was smoother than mutton-fat jade.
.
The little girl was holding a stuffed animal, and her appearance was incompatible with the confidence with which she spoke.
"Little girl, this Jade Buddha just came back from the appraisal center yesterday. You said it is not authentic. Do you have any evidence?"
The old man's voice was light and had a touch of coercion, which was the majesty and authority of a highly respected person in the industry, developed through years of immersion in the antique world.
"This jade Buddha, starting from this position, the thin layer on the bottom is real mutton-fat jade, and the top is connected up," Le Yun said confidently, turning the bottom over and pointing it out to the old man.
One scratch after another: "The raw material for carving the Jade Buddha is not jade. The surface is coated with a layer of gum resin mixed with jade powder. To verify whether it is authentic, just wash it with a certain kind of water."
Jingde has been working in the industry for more than ten years. This is the first time I have heard someone say that gum resin is used to fake mutton-fat jade. His calm face almost broke the news. Isn't the little girl afraid of blowing up the world when she talks nonsense?
"Little girl, you will have to bear the consequences for speaking nonsense." Ji Lao's eyes were deep and sharp. The little girl's eyes were watery and lively. People with eyes like that don't look like the masters of nonsense. But, look
He looks too young and lacks a convincing first impression.
"If I tell a lie and it cannot be verified to be true or false, I will buy it and publicly apologize to your store. If I verify that it is false, the old gentleman only needs to sell it to me. What is the price? I will only pay 10,000
."
"Okay, I'll take your word for it, and you two will follow me to the back." Mr. Ji was silent for about ten seconds, made up his mind, picked up the jade Buddha that the little girl had put down after appreciating it, and invited the guests to come in, which no other clerk could do.
An important place to enter.
Yingde was shocked, the boss actually believed it?
Le Yun showed no signs of timidity, and walked into the passage that led to the inside with her head held high. Milo's expression remained unchanged, and he calmly followed the footsteps of the little Lolita.
There is a small storage room behind the curtain, and there is a staircase leading to the second floor. Ji Lao led the two guests up the stairs to the second floor.
The second floor is as wide as the store on the first floor, and the huge place is filled with various shelves, storing a variety of antiques, pottery, jade, and bronze items.
A small office was separated by glass on one side of the wall, with a set of tables and chairs in the middle of the hall, a set of Eight Immortals tables for office use, and a cabinet containing various appraisal tools.
Ji Lao led the two guests into the studio and sat down. He picked up an empty box for the Jade Buddha and placed it on the table. He poured a glass of boiled water for the two guests.
Milo helped the little Lolita hold the big rabbit. His gentlemanly demeanor and nobility oozed from his bones. Even if he drank a glass of boiled water, he would still be so elegant. It was more elegant than drinking jade syrup. He looked like a noble in every gesture.
style.
Leyun was not a noble, nor was she a country bumpkin who had never seen the world. She did not drink boiled water. She put the bag on her shoulder on her knees, took out a pack of pills and a pack of medicinal materials, took out a pill and a handful of medicinal materials,
Soak it in your own drinking cup.
The little girl opened the package to take the medicine, and a fragrance wafted out, making Milo's blue eyes shine. It smells so good! Can it be eaten?
The aroma was elegant, Ji Lao's eyes changed slightly, and the pills in the little girl's hands didn't look like ordinary things.
After sealing the package, Le Yun moved some of the water cups in front of the shop owner: "Old sir, please boil these two things in an electric kettle for a while, and then soak the Jade Buddha in water. An unexpected picture will appear. These medicines
It is non-toxic, it can even be said to be a good detoxification medicine, and it will not cause damage to jade, copper and iron. If you are not worried, you can try it with something while the water is boiling."
Ji Lao nodded, picked up the cup, walked aside, poured the water and medicine into the electric kettle for making tea, then took it to the water dispenser, added water, and put it on the base to turn on the electricity to boil the water.
The little girl's water cup could no longer be filled with medicine, so he poured the little guest another cup of boiled water and waited patiently.
Le Yun was not nervous at all. She took her hand warmer, the big-eared rogue rabbit, from the handsome guy's arms, drank a few sips of boiled water, and smiled while waiting for the water in the electric kettle to boil.
When the electric kettle is heating, the pills slowly melt, and the aroma becomes more and more fragrant. The smell is refreshing and refreshing, as if you have just taken a bath and your whole body is clear.
When the water boils, the aroma fills the first floor.
Ji Lao's surprise intensified, but he remained calm. After a while, when he heard the little girl say "that's enough," he went to unplug the power supply himself and poured water into a tea bowl.
Place a heat-insulating mat on the Eight Immortals table and place the bowl head on the table.
In order to test whether the potion was really harmless to the antiques, he picked up a piece of jade of low purity and put it into the bowl. The jade showed no reaction. He took it out with tweezers and observed it. There were no cracks under a magnifying glass.
After completing the preliminary test, Mr. Ji took out the Jade Buddha and slowly put it into the potion. He stood at the table and observed. The Jade Buddha sank into the potion and was fine at first. After about a minute, the water seeped into the jade.
Strings of white bubbles emerged from the Buddha's mutton-fat white meat, and the bubbles became more and more numerous. The water surface seemed to be boiling, making a thin gurgling sound.
Ji Lao's face is getting darker and darker, his eyebrows are tightened, and the jade Buddha is bubbling, which means there is something wrong!
