Siheyuan starts from the stationmaster

Chapter 31

That person finally gritted his teeth and made a certain decision. He walked towards Bai Zirui briskly, and shouted urgently: "Young man...Young man, just wait a moment."

When Bai Zirui heard someone calling him from behind, he stopped and turned around, seeing Yan Bugui in tattered clothes, chasing after him out of breath while calling out to him.

Bai Zirui waited for him to come to him, looked him up and down and teasingly said: "Third Master, you have changed your career from being a teacher to collecting trash."

Seeing Bai Zirui's playful gaze, the man said with both a smile and a smile, "What third master? Young man, do you know me? Yes!"

Then he seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized: "Young man, do you live in the courtyard of the Red Star Rolling Mill dormitory at No. 40 Nanluoguxiang?"

Bai Zirui said with some doubts: "Third Master, we just met this morning, and you pretended not to know me this afternoon. What are you doing?"

The man smiled and said: "Young man, I'm not the old man Yan Pugui, the third master in your yard. The Hou Su'e you helped borrow money just now is my daughter. My surname is Hou, and everyone calls me Poor Hou."

When Bai Zirui heard the man's self-introduction, and then saw that he had the same face as Yan Bugui, he was a little dumbfounded.

In his heart, he thought with ups and downs, what's going on?Didn't I have my soul transmigrated into the TV series "Love in the Courtyard"?But why did the tattered Hou in the TV series "Under the Zhengyang Gate" mess in.

He then thought that these two TV series both told the story of Forty-Nine City, and the time period was not far from each other. Could it be that the characters in these two TV series lived in the same land.

Bai Zirui has watched the TV series "Under the Zhengyang Gate", and knows that the "Ragged Hou" in the TV series is the grandson of the prince, and his ancestors have passed down many good things.

If you meet a prodigal, you will definitely lose all of these things, but Poor Hou is a real lover of antiques, he would rather pick up trash than sell these treasures, and he has been collecting antiques throughout his life.

Poor Hou is the most open-minded person in the TV series "Under the Zhengyang Gate". He doesn't pay much attention to money all his life, but he only loves antiques. People who are not moved by external objects are persistent, measured, and kind-hearted.

In the 70s, Zattered Hou walked around the streets with a snakeskin bag. He was called collecting tatters, but he actually collected antiques. His knowledge of antiques was as good as that of the old man Guan, the admiral of the Nine Schools.

Bai Zirui planned his future after the soul transmigrated, among which was a collection of antiques, but he was afraid to do it due to the lack of a famous teacher to guide him, but now he has a master who comes to his door automatically, which makes him very happy Get mad.

Bai Zirui looked at the tattered Hou happily, his burning eyes were like seeing rare treasures, this kind of gaze made the tattered Hou feel a little dazed.

"Cough...cough" He coughed twice, waking Bai Zirui out of his excitement.

Bai Zirui pretended not to know him and said: "Old man, I'm sorry, you look so much like the third master in our courtyard, I misunderstood you, what is the relationship between you and the third master in our courtyard? Why? You look exactly alike."

Poor Hou waved his hands and said indifferently: "We are three twin brothers with the same mother. Besides me and the third master in your courtyard, there is another one who is playing foreign movies at Zhengyangmen."

After hearing his words, Bai Zirui felt turbulent again, wondering if he was talking about the son-in-law in the TV series "Little Women Under the Zhengyang Gate".

He quickly came to his senses this time, all the people and events happened in Forty-Nine City, and he was in the same era. It seemed that he would take some time to go to Xu Huizhen's tavern to experience it.

Poor Hou said curiously: "When the three of us celebrate the New Year, we take turns to get together at each house. I have also been to your courtyard. Why didn't I hear that old third child mention you?"

Bai Zirui replied politely: "Master Hou, hello! I have been in Baoding with my father before, and it was a coincidence that I only returned to the courtyard in the past few days."

Broken Hou asked: "You lent money to my daughter just now, and she wrote you an IOU. Why did you throw away the IOU after you left the hospital?"

Bai Zirui asked suspiciously: "Master Hou, how do you know so clearly?"

Poor Hou explained: "I happened to be collecting tatters in the alley near my daughter's house, and I saw you rushing to the hospital with my daughter with my worthless son-in-law on your back, so I followed and saw you I lent her money and received the IOU, why did I throw away the IOU when I got out of the hospital?"

Bai Zirui replied without hesitation: "Uncle Hou, I originally wanted to give the money to Sister Hou directly, but she refused to accept it, so I had to say that I lent it to her, and she wrote me an IOU before accepting it with peace of mind." Next, I didn't intend to ask her to repay the money, so I threw the IOU out of the hospital."

Looking at his sincere face and piercing eyes, he can see that Bai Zirui is not lying with his eyes. He said solemnly: "Young man, then I will take the place of my poor boy." Thank you for your life-saving grace, daughter and son-in-law who are useless."

After saying that he wanted to bow to him, Bai Zirui hurriedly supported him, and said without hesitation: "Master Hou, I can't afford this big gift from you, it will cost my life, and saving someone's life is worth doing." The seven-level pagoda is a good thing to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and others will do the same."

Broken Hou took out the IOU, and said gratefully: "Young man, you have done such a great deed, you must let me know your real name!"

Bai Zirui said brilliantly, "Master Hou, you have seen through all this. My name is Bai Zirui, and I am the deputy director of the XXX Recycling Station under the Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office."

After listening to his work, the broken eyes were full of light, revealing an inexplicable brilliance. After thinking for a moment, he said, "That's good! I'm a little older, please call you Zirui! You have helped my daughter so much. I also send you a gift and hope you don't delay."

He put the snakeskin bag on the ground, took out a few thread-bound ancient books and handed it to Bai Zirui. Bai Zirui was elated when he saw it, and he said with a delay, "Master Hou, what are you doing? I just did it with a little effort." It was just a favor."

Broken Hou stuffed a few thread-bound ancient books into his arms, and said loudly, "Zi Rui, this is a gift from the elders that cannot be resigned. There is no reason to take back what I sent from Broken Hou, just accept it!"

Bai Zirui pretended to accept it helplessly, but his heart was ecstatic. He picked up the books and read them: "Chinese Ancient Coins", "Chinese Ceramics", "Chinese Bronze Wares", "Northern Song Copper Coins", "Yuan and Ming Dynasties" Qing Dynasty", "Antique Appreciation" and other books on identifying antiques.

He roughly flipped through these books, and there were some experiences written in tatters, and he said happily: "Master Hou, you gave me all these treasures."

Broken Hou said with a smile: "Give it to you. If there is something you don't understand, go to the place where I live in the first room on the right hand side of No. 137 Yanzhi Hutong."
