1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 116 Return to the junkyard

The small courtyard deep among the flowers is still as peaceful and warm as ever.

Su Guilan led Little October under the grape trellis in the courtyard. One kept talking about the old calendar, and the other took the trouble to listen attentively.

As November approached, the leaves of the grapes fell to random places in the courtyard from time to time with the wind.

Pomegranates, crabapples, and jujube trees are also catering to the changing seasons, letting the autumn wind change their colors.

"Mom, why don't you take a rest for a while?" Luo Tao practiced calligraphy in the study for a while, but was really defeated by his mother Su Guilan's nagging and had to come out to let her rest for a while.

"What, this or that? You started to dislike me." Su Guilan said angrily.

"Mom, I don't mean to disdain you. I'm asking you to take a break and drink some tea to moisten your throat. It's up to you to see where you want to go." Luo Tao was so scared!This old lady Su Guilan is always on the line.

"Don't do this, hum, I don't know you yet, come on, little October, let's go out to play."

Su Guilan said that she had left Luo Tao behind, and then pulled Little October next to her to go out.

"No." Little October's voice was milky, and she jumped out word by word.

"Hey, what's the matter? You little monkey wants to go to the house and remove the tiles. It's really useless to hurt you." Seeing this, Su Guilan was full of complaints, and she didn't forget to slap little October's butt a few times.

"Grandma, bad." Little October curled her lips, her eyes full of grievances, and if she wasn't careful, tears might burst out.

"Good guy, if you cooperate with me to take care of you every day, I will become a bad person in the end."

Su Guilan held Little October and asked him.

"Haha, Mom, you are a bad person. You are always the most kind person in the world."

"Stop being so playful, and don't wear a high hat on me." Su Guilan was too lazy to pay attention to Luo Tao, then turned to Little October and said, "Let's go, I'll bring Da Ma with you, okay?"

Little October didn't respond, so he walked to the wooden horse and wanted to take it away.

This wooden horse was made by Lao Zhangtou at a furniture store after Little October turned one year old. The boy liked it very much when it was first delivered to him.

At first I was a little afraid of needing someone to support me, but after playing for two days, I became a lot more courageous. As long as the little guy doesn't pay attention, he can go up by himself.

This wooden horse is a bit like a childhood sweetheart. Most bamboo horses are easy to make. Children who don't have the conditions can use a stick or a bamboo pole to think of themselves as the mount of a general with millions of troops.

Those who can afford it will install a horse head on one end of the bamboo pole and a small wooden wheel on the other end. This ride is really majestic.

The bamboo horse is only suitable for older children. A kid like Little October who is just over one year old will not be able to control it. However, this wooden horse is not easy to ride. It is completely suitable for a kid like Little October who has just learned to walk. Toddlers.

I don't worry about falling when I ride it, the chassis of the wooden horse is very stable.

"Slow down, don't fall." Luo Tao looked at Little October, whose expression changed as if he were flipping through a book, and happily took Su Guilan's hand and walked out in a hurry.

No one responded, and an old man and a young man went out, leaving Luo Tao alone in the courtyard, which was quite embarrassing.

One person stayed in the courtyard for a while and became a little bored. When he returned to the study, he looked at the calligraphy practice on the table and lost all interest.

I have been practicing this word for more than half a year and have been taught by many famous experts. I have made rapid progress, but it is a pity that I cannot read it.

well!It’s hard to describe in one word.

Thinking about it, I might as well go out for a walk. This practice of calligraphy is not something that happens overnight. It is also good to go out and relax. I haven't gone to the alley for a long time. I don't know what the scene is like now.
As soon as the cart is pushed, it's gone as soon as it's gone. It's not like I'm going anywhere before today. It's only right to go to the right place when buying things.

……

"Hey, what kind of wind has brought you here today? There are only a few visitors here."

"What? Master Sun is not welcome." Luo Tao joked.

"Hehe, don't dare dare."

"You smoke, come take a look if you have nothing to do. I haven't been here for a long time. I wonder why you are alone today and where are they?" Luo Tao took out a cigarette and handed it to Sun Li, not forgetting to ask about what was going on.

"Hey, these cigarettes are enough for the table. How can you get rich? When will you take my brother with you?" Sun Li took the cigarettes handed over by Luo Tao and couldn't help but envy.

"Hey, where are you going to make a fortune? This cigarette is just for show. If you like, you can smoke it."

"Hehe, you're a rich guy, so I won't be polite." This guy didn't have any humility in his mouth or hands. He was so quick, he just touched it quietly and put it into his pocket.

"Brother Sun, where are the people in the station today? Why are you the only one?"

"Oh, they went to participate in organizational activities, so they left me to look after the house and sort out the goods."

"Why are there still activities now?"

"You ask me, where do I know where to go? I heard from the superiors, but I heard that some positions above are about to be moved." Sun Li said the last words in a low voice, and then did not continue the next chapter.

"Oh, Brother Sun, I don't know if there are any good things recently!"

Luo Tao did not go down to ask whose position was to be moved and who was given important positions. It was better not to know much about this matter, and ordinary people could just mind their own business.

"There are no good things, but there are a few pieces of furniture that no one wants. Why don't you take a look?"

"Oh? There's nothing else in the station, calligraphy, painting, porcelain jars and whatnot?" Luo Tao asked him, he hadn't been here for more than a few months, how could the warehouse be cleared so quickly now?
"Are you asking about these things? These things have become rare items now. Those Hong Kong businessmen and foreigners just like it here. One of them came here a few days ago and bought hundreds of things."

"Okay. Brother Sun, it's not like you don't know that I also like these things. Please save some for me next time."

"Brother, I can't be the master of this matter, you know that."

This innocent face, I believe you, you have no idea how many pieces you have stolen and sold?

"Hey! Brother Sun, don't I know what you are capable of? You are indispensable for things to happen."

"Haha, brother, are you deliberately trying to make me ashamed? Our relationship is heresy." These words were really brilliant.

"That's it, that's it. Brother, I'm a quick talker. Please bear with me. How about I treat you to a drink when you have time?"

"Hey! I'll be waiting then." Sun Li grinned.

"You still don't know who my brother is, and where are those pieces of furniture?"

"Oh, come on, I'll take you to see it. If you like it, just invite me over."

"Hey, I'll thank Brother Sun first."

"Ahem, you're being polite again, aren't you?"

Luo Tao followed him to a warehouse. There were actually several flower tables and chairs placed randomly. Luo Tao brushed off a layer of dust and looked at the wood and workmanship carefully.

Typical Beijing work, mahogany wood, a pair of Ming Dynasty Ruyi moire armchairs, two pairs of half-piece rosewood tables, and a greenstone screen that looks like ebony.

The ebony texture is not obvious, and it is easy to crack. It has such characteristics on this insert screen, and it should not be fake.

"Brother Sun, I want all of these things, don't be embarrassed!"

"Ahem, today you are deliberately trying to make me angry and take advantage of my family."

"Hehe, Brother Sun, you are still very smart, I admire you." Luo Tao heard that he was so generous, as if he didn't belong to his family, so he couldn't help but want to flatter him for free.

It took the two of them two or three trips to get everyone on the bus.

After being busy with nothing, the two of them chatted about the old days and walked around again, not to mention that there were really gems covered in dust.
