Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

"Ding ding ding..."

"Grandpa, your phone number."

"Lao Geng from the Forbidden City Museum." Yang Guangcheng took out his phone.

Just as he was asking whether the experts at the Forbidden City Museum had made a mistake, his friend at the Forbidden City Museum called him.

Old Geng.

The ceramic identification experts at the Forbidden City Museum are very skilled.

Yang Guangcheng has a very high level of ceramic restoration skills and is a recognized master in the industry. He is often invited by the Forbidden City Museum to help repair damaged ancient ceramics, and he is friends with many people in the Forbidden City Museum.

"Hey, Lao Geng, what do you want from me?"

"I'm in Yanzhi Hutong, Qianmenlouzi."

"now?"

"Can I bring a few people with me?"

"Okay, see you later." After hanging up the phone, Yang Guangcheng said, "Old Geng said that the Forbidden City Museum bought back a batch of newly unearthed cultural relics in Panjiayuan today, but he was not sure about them, so he asked me to go over and help take a look."

Yang Feng said: "That's it, it's very likely that the Forbidden City Museum has really made a mistake this time."

The experts who can enter the Forbidden City Museum are all of high level.

Since even the ceramic experts at the Forbidden City Museum are not sure, it can now be basically confirmed that it was a real mistake.

"My Lord, Uncle Kun, could you please come with me to the Forbidden City Museum?"

Yang Guangcheng did not identify the Tang Sancai horse that Yang Feng bought as a replica.

The items were identified by Hou Bolang and Yang Yukun, and Yang Guangcheng hoped that they could accompany him to the Forbidden City Museum.

The rag-and-bone Marquis smiled and said, "What do you think, kid?"

Yang Yukun smiled and said, "Master, I will listen to you."

"Then go and take a look. I'll go see my old friends too." Hou Polan also has a few old friends in the Forbidden City Museum.

It's been a while since we last met, so I took this opportunity to visit the Forbidden City Museum to see my old friends.

Yang Feng said: "Grandpa, can I go and take a look?"

"Let's go together."

"Okay." Yang Feng put away the replica of the Tang Sancai horse.

Although this thing is a replica, the person who made it is indeed very skilled and it has a certain collection value.

I spent so much money to buy it, I can’t just smash it.

Keep it, learn from your mistakes and remember this lesson.

Yang Yukun drove with his master, following Yang Guangcheng and Yang Feng, and soon they arrived at the Forbidden City Museum.

"Old Geng."

"Old Yang, you are finally here. Lord Hou, Director Yang, you are here too."

Lao Geng knew Hou Polan and Yang Yukun. He had also visited the Yaguan Museum and the Kunping Museum more than once.

Putting aside the identities of Hou Polan and Yang Yukun as directors of a private museum, this master and disciple are also well-known antique appraisers in the city.

Yang Yukun greeted, "Master Geng."

Marquis Papo said, "Old Geng, I heard from Old Yang that you received a batch of Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines and Tang Dynasty sancai. Are you a little undecided?"

"Yes."

"If even your Forbidden City Museum ceramics expert group can't determine it, then it must be fake, right?"

Master Geng said, "We all feel that there is something wrong with this batch of things, but we can't tell what's wrong. So we have no choice but to ask Lao Yang to come over and help take a look."

Marquis Papa said to Yang Feng, "Boy, take out your Tang Sancai horse and show it to Old Geng."

"Okay, my lord." Yang Feng took the Tang Sancai horse off the carriage and said, "Master Geng, please judge for yourself."

"You found this Tang Sancai horse in Panjiayuan today, right?" Master Geng could tell at a glance that this Tang Sancai horse was from the same batch as the Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines and Tang Sancai they bought in Panjiayuan.

Yang Feng nodded: "Yes, Master Geng."

"Old Yang, Lord Hou, Director Yang, so you have already figured out whether this Tang Sancai horse is real or fake?"

"Old Geng, I have some bad news for you. This Tang Sancai horse has been identified by Lord Hou and Uncle Kun as a replica, and the replica was made no more than one year ago."

“Is it really a replica?”

"I didn't notice it. It was the Marquis and Uncle Kun who noticed it." Yang Guangcheng immediately told Master Geng, bit by bit, where the Tang Sancai horse was.

"I understand, that's how it is." Master Geng suddenly realized.

A single leaf blocks the view of the mountain. After Yang Guangcheng's guidance, the clouds and fog cleared and the true appearance of this Tang Sancai horse was revealed.

Master Geng walked quickly into the room and re-identified the batch of Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines and Tang Dynasty sancai porcelains bought from Panjiayuan one by one.

Yang Guangcheng said, "Old Geng, take a breath."

Master Geng didn't have time to answer Yang Guangcheng. He thought of the batch of Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines he bought from Panjiayuan two years ago. They were exactly the same. "Old Yang, Lord, Director Yang, I don't have time to entertain you today. I have to go to the History Museum soon."

In addition to their Forbidden City Museum, other sister institutions such as the History Museum also spent a lot of money to buy a lot of Northern Wei pottery figurines and Tang Sancai.

The Northern Wei Dynasty pottery figurines and Tang Dynasty tri-colored glazed pottery they bought were imitations, so those bought by sister institutions such as the History Museum most likely also had problems.

Master Geng was too busy entertaining Yang Guangcheng and the others at the moment. He would treat them to a meal after this matter was settled.

Yang Guangcheng said: "Lao Geng, you go ahead and do your work, we will withdraw first."

The Broken Marquis said, "It has already happened. Don't let your anger ruin your health at your old age."

Master Geng sighed: "Alas... the country spent so much money, but ended up buying a bunch of imitations. I feel so sorry for the country and the people."

Yang Guangcheng comforted him, "You are also worried about the loss of cultural relics, and you are not the only one who made mistakes. The counterfeiters are too skilled. If it weren't for the Marquis and Uncle Kun not noticing something wrong, I would have thought it was real, so don't blame yourself too much."

Yang Yukun, Master, Yang Guangcheng and Yang Feng stayed for less than twenty minutes before leaving. Master and Yang Guangcheng went to visit other friends, while Yang Yukun and Yang Feng left the Forbidden City Museum.

"Grandpa, I will go back to the store and visit you and grandma some other day."

"Go back."

Yang Yukun and Yang Feng separated at the gate of the Forbidden City Museum and went back to their homes.

Before he got home, Yang Yukun received a call from Xu Jingping.

Xu Jingping, Xiao Zongzi, Pingping and Xiao Yumi came back from Simatai. They didn't see him at home, so they called to ask him where he had been.

…………

"Dad is back!"

"father!"

"Woof woof woof...!"

"I'm back." Yang Yukun jumped out of the car and said, "Kids, I haven't seen you for a day. Do you miss your dad?"

"think."

"So good." Yang Yukun rubbed the children's heads and said, "Dad will make whatever you want to eat later."

"fish!"

"drumstick!"

"Braised pork!"

"Okay." Yang Yukun entered the room and said, "Wife, what do you want to eat?"

Xu Jingping smiled and said, "Let me think about it. Boiled beef, I also want to eat mutton."

"No problem, I'll go make dinner." Yang Yukun came to the kitchen.

It's almost four o'clock, and it's time to prepare dinner.

Spicy sliced ​​fish, braised chicken legs, braised pork, boiled beef, clear-cooked lamb, and stir-fried goose eggs, that's about six dishes.

"Wife, Xiao Zongzi, Pingping, Xiao Yumi, it's time to eat."

"coming."

"smell good."

Xu Jingping said, "I forgot to wash my hands before dinner. Go wash your hands."

"Ok."

Little Zongzi, Pingping and Little Yumi laughed and ran to wash their hands.

"Have a meal."

"Really delicious."

Xu Jingping said: "Xiao Xia has a boyfriend."

"Is this true?" Yang Yukun asked in surprise, "This girl has such a carefree personality, just like a boy. All the boys treat her as a buddy, so who would treat her as a girl?"

"Really? He was her classmate in high school, named Li Chaoyang. He was admitted to another city for college and is working there. They ran into each other at a class reunion a while ago. He had fought with Xiaoxia at school back then."

When we went to Simatai for a drink yesterday, Xu Jingping heard He Chunyan say that Xiaoxia was dating someone. Even He Yongqiang and Xu Huizhi didn't know about this, and neither did He Lixia and the others.

This girl did a very good job of keeping it a secret and didn't tell them.

Xu Jingping went to ask Xiaoxia, and when she realized that she could no longer hide it, she confessed the truth to her.

They are indeed dating each other. They are classmates at Guangqumen Middle School and they have even fought before. I didn’t expect that they would end up together.

"Have you seen Xiao Xia's partner?"

"I haven't seen him. He said he works for a state-owned enterprise in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. He said he would introduce him to us when he returns after the Chinese New Year."

"I didn't expect Xiao Xia to find a partner. This is a good thing. It should be made public."

The father-in-law, mother-in-law, He Yongqiang and Xu Huizhi had been worried that He Xiaoxia would not be able to find a partner given her carefree personality. Now they can rest assured and wait for this girl's wedding. (End of this chapter)
