The bald man hurriedly grabbed Gu Dong.
He took out the bag from behind him.
He said anxiously, "Hey, don't be in such a hurry.
Don't be in such a hurry, I have other good things here.
If you don't like this, you can change it. Come, take a look. Let's take a look at the others. "
Gu Dong looked at the Ai Cao hesitantly.
The Ai Cao said obediently, "Then let's take a look. Maybe there really is something fun."
"Yes,
Yes, take a look again.
Maybe there's something that this girl likes. "Although the bald man was smiling on the surface, he didn't know what to say.
However, he had already rolled his eyes at the two of them in his heart.
If you know, I'm selling antiques. If you don't know, you'll think I'm a grocer setting up a stall!
There weren't many things, only six or seven in total. Other than the incense burner, there was also a pair of small wine cups.
A fan pendant.
A broken dial and a few copper coins from the Han Dynasty.
At first, the Ai Cao thought that Gu Dong was buying an incense burner from the Ming Dynasty. However, after seeing Gu Dong's reaction, she realized that it was her man.
She really didn't know anything.
She was just picking for fun.
Picking and choosing.
The Ai Cao chose the fan pendant and asked for a few copper coins. In the end, she bargained for three yuan before leaving and took the incense burner away. Anyway, these things were all from a certain era. Just leave them there. Maybe they would be useful in the future.
After leaving the bald man and walking a short distance, the Ai Cao stopped and asked Gu Dong quietly, "When did you start to like these things?"
"No, I just saw him and another person acting mysteriously just now. I heard something, so I went over to take a look out of curiosity." "Isn't there a saying that the golden age of prosperity is the antiques of troubled times? I was just trying my luck. I didn't know anything, and I couldn't tell if it was real or fake." "Sigh, just those few things just now cost me nearly ten yuan."
Gu Dong felt a little heartache. Although he had money in his pocket now, his money didn't come from the wind. At this time, he was desperate to split the money. Ten yuan was really a lot. Some families didn't even have that much extra spending for half a year.
When the Ai Cao saw Gu Dong's distressed expression, he raised his hand and patted his head. However, when he realized what he had just done on the street, he immediately retracted his hand. His face was red as if he had eaten chili.
However, her adorable behavior and amusing appearance made Gu Dong's mood very good. He tried hard not to laugh, afraid that his wife would be even more embarrassed. However, her curved eyebrows and the way she looked at the Ai Cao clearly showed that she wanted to laugh out loud.
"Let's go!" The Ai Cao raised his leg and pretended to kick him.
"Haha, haha …" Gu Dong couldn't hold it in any longer. Why was he acting like a flustered bunny? He looked so cute.
On the way back, the Ai Cao finally stopped blushing and calmed down. When the two of them got out of the car and walked back home from the village, he said seriously to Gu Dong.
"I think your thinking is right. In the future, if you encounter such things, try to accept as much as you can. Gold in a golden age and antiques in troubled times have always been right. Generally speaking, after a country is established, it will gradually enter a stage of stable or rapid development. If you have extra money, you can buy more of these things when you are free. "
The Ai Cao sincerely suggested to the shareholders.
"But I don't know anything. Just like today, I just wanted something rare. That baldy was talking about dynasties, workmanship, and what rank of officials used these things. I was so stupid that I didn't understand. I felt like I was being cheated. "
Sometimes, the reason was just a sentence, but when you tried to do it, you didn't realize that you didn't know anything. Gu Dong didn't want to be cheated and spend more money for nothing.
The Ai Cao looked around and saw that there were no pedestrians on the road. She quietly whispered into Gu Dong's ear: "That small incense burner just now is more than 100 years old. And that fan pendant. Don't look at it because it is dirty and shivering. When you get home, you will know that it is really a good piece of jade.
If the Ai Cao didn't learn this kind of knowledge in school, the Ai Cao wouldn't be able to tell which era it was from, what it represented, and what it was worth. But the Ai Cao had seen many things in her previous life. She could tell if something was good or bad.
For example, that jade pendant. It was stained and couldn't be seen clearly. But when the Ai Cao touched it, she felt that the quality of this thing was not too bad.
"Hey, how could I forget? I don't know, but someone in my family knows!" She happily took a bite of the Ai Cao's beam! "Haha, then I will ask you if I want to buy anything in the future!"
Gu Dong was very excited. The Ai Cao didn't refute, but it wasn't that easy to carry out the plan. After that, the Ai Cao followed Gu Dong to the city a few times to see if there were any calligraphy, paintings, antiques, hairpins, jade pendants, and the like. The two of them wandered around randomly. After a few times, they found that there were only a few people. Most of the things in their hands were shoddy.
Seeing that the black market wasn't working, the Ai Cao remembered the time when she took a book from the old junk collector. Then, she wandered around the big junkyards with Gu Dong. In order to not be recognized, the two of them even dressed up. They put on the tattered clothes they hadn't worn in a long time and smeared black ash on their faces. From afar, people would know that they came from the countryside.
The two of them took advantage of the fact that the countryside people were poor and didn't have money. So, they came to the junkyard to buy things. In a week's time, as long as the Ai Cao liked the things she found, she would bring them back and put them in Zhuangzi.
Very soon, Mugwort's school started. Gu Dong was extremely reluctant to send Mugwort to school, but he had no choice. In his grandfather's words, Mugwort was the hope of the Gu family now. Whether the Gu family could make a comeback or not was all dependent on his wife.
On the first day of school, the county's high school was quite lively. There were a few big red words on the door to welcome the new students. Most of the students were from the county or nearby. Only Gu Dong followed closely behind the Ai Cao.
"You should go back. I have already registered. Zhuang Yan will take me. You should go back first. If you are late, you will miss the bus." The Ai Cao pulled Gu Dong's clothes and persuaded him to go back.
Gu Dong didn't want to leave. He couldn't bear to leave. Looking at the boys laughing and chatting in the school, he stared at them so hard that his eyes could bore holes through them. But even if he was unwilling, he still had to go back. The Ai Cao had to live in the school and could only go home once a month.
Don't be reluctant to spend money. You have to know that the money I earn is for you to spend. I saw your school's lunch today. If you want to eat white flour, look for Jiang Yuan if you don't have enough tickets. Don't eat sorghum or black cabbage stalks and cornbread. Also, that dish 1 is like pig's food. It's simply … "
The Ai Cao never knew that a man like Gu Dong could be so long-winded. But she was not annoyed. Instead, she listened to Gu Dong carefully. She knew that Gu Dong cared about her. If she acted like she did not care, not only would she make him worried, but she would also hurt him.
Finally, at the last moment, Gu Dong reluctantly waved goodbye to the Ai Cao in the afterglow of the setting sun.
After sending Gu Dong off, the Ai Cao went back to the dormitory to pack her luggage.
Their school was like a large courtyard house. The three rooms on the north side were classrooms for Year One, Year Two, and Year Three. Due to the small number of students, it was possible to have one class per grade. The three rooms on the right side of the classroom were where the teachers worked. The left side of the classroom was a storeroom and a library. The row of rooms facing the classroom was the kitchen that was filled with smoke and fire.
As for the living quarters, they were all in the backyard behind the classrooms. The layout was the same, but they were all dormitories. The Ai Cao's dormitory was on the east side, next to the second year girls. The whole class lived in the same room and shared a bed.
This was the Ai Cao's first time living in this kind of bed. She was curious, but she was also not used to the lack of privacy with a group of people.
When the Ai Cao walked into the room, she found that most of the people who came early had finished packing and were chatting together.
"Hey, whose things are inside? Has the person come yet? It's not good to take up space if they don't come! " A girl with two ponytails wanted to pull the things in there to the side and put her things in there.
"Ah, I'm coming. Sorry, I just went out. These are my things, my bed." The Ai Cao saw that someone was pulling her things, so she quickly answered and ran over.
There were a total of 16 girls in their class. The door of the dormitory faced the west. The wall on the east side was a window, and there were a few tables under the window. The south and north sides of the wall were shared beds, and there were eight people sleeping on each side.
Zhuang Yan was experienced. He was afraid that the Ai Cao would not be used to it, so he helped her get the innermost spot by the wall. This way, there would only be one person outside, and it would be better.
However, there was more than one person who wanted a good spot. Even though the Ai Cao put her things in there, there were still people who wanted to move their things in there and replace the original owner.
"I'm sorry, but these are my things. Thank you." The Ai Cao politely took a small package from the girl with two ponytails and put it back in its original place.
"Oh, it's yours. Why didn't you come earlier? You're taking up space and can't let other students use it!"
"I came early. Didn't you see? My quilt and mattress are all here. It's just that I didn't make it. But if you had come a little earlier, then the things in this shop might have been yours by now. "Mugwort's white and tender face tensed up as she spoke to the twintails with a serious expression.
Although Gu Dong always said that his wife was arrogant and soft, sometimes she looked like a child who had not grown up. Her temperament was like a spoiled rabbit. However, even if she was a rabbit, she would not let others bully her.
In her previous life, she was the youngest in the family and was also a girl. Therefore, the whole family spoiled her and made her temperament a little soft. However, she had been by her mother's side for 15 to 16 years. She had seen and heard a lot.
