If Yang Chen and Silly Pillar were good friends, then Yang Chen and the old rat were friends who forgot their age.
The more he understood the old rat, the more Yang Chen felt that he was a rare talent.
Faking antique calligraphy and paintings was just a means of making a living. Old Rat's appreciation of antique calligraphy and paintings was his true level.
In addition, the old rat's family's ancient construction skills were also very precious.
In the future, Yang Chen planned to let the old rat personally preside over it and build a magnificent courtyard house for him.
Even if it couldn't compare to Prince Gong's residence, it couldn't be too far off.
"Old Rat, I'm busy…"
"You brat, you don't come to the temple for nothing. The moment you came, the crows next door immediately cawed non-stop. Hey, hey, there's no one holding a funeral nearby.”
"Old Rat, have you found your wife?”
"I don't like the older ones, and the younger ones don't like me. Why couldn't he find a virgin girl to be his wife?”
The two of them would definitely tease each other when they met.
The old rat was talking, and Yang Chen was vomiting while rolling his eyes in response.
To be honest, other than the looks that his mother brought up, Old Rat was definitely a man of indomitable spirit.
"Old Rat, I plan to go to Xiangjiang in a few years. I heard that the place is not only open, but also has a polygamy system.”
"Xiangjiang? Why didn't he have a place to return to when he was old? Why should I go?"
"If you don't go, how are you going to marry a virgin? How could he have a few sons? Without a wife or son, when you close your eyes and can't open them again, who will take care of you in your old age?”
Yang Chen really didn't say it casually, but gave the old rat a preventive shot in advance.
After going to Xiangjiang, Yang Chen was ready to let the old rat fake the fake while engaging in the antique calligraphy and painting business.
Such a capable person, such a good helper, Yang Chen did not want to miss it.
After some jokes, Yang Chen took out all kinds of materials that he had brought with him.
"Oh? What is this?"
"It's all prepared for you. No matter what, you're an elder. The ham is a high-quality Xuanwei ham. The canned food is imported from abroad. I didn't bring the wine. You have to save the 120 jars that you took last time. As for rice, white flour, and vegetables, I'll get my men to bring them to you later.”
"Haha, looks like we can have a good new year this year.”
What Yang Chen did not know was that the old rat was very touched in his heart, but he did not say it.
As a 'five guarantees household', before meeting Yang Chen, the old rat could only basically fill his stomach.
But now, what Old Rat ate and drank every day was a rare commodity in this era.
After paying his respects to the old rat in advance, Yang Chen took his leave.
However, before he could enter the courtyard house, Honest Xu followed him.
"What happened?"
"Master, the peanuts and melon seeds have all been sold out.”
"Me? How could he be so fast? A total of 16 tons…"
Yang Chen did not expect the peanuts to be so popular.
This also proved that this era really lacked all kinds of living materials.”
Who wouldn't prepare some non-staple food like peanuts and melon seeds during the new year?
Those who had the means would prepare more. After all, visiting relatives would also give them face.
"Alright, I'll look for you tomorrow. I'll try to get dozens of tons tonight.”
Yang Chen didn't let Xu Honest give him the money, but let him keep it well, in case other creatures were temporarily transferred.
The next morning, Yang Chen brought 50,000 catties of spiced peanuts and 50,000 catties of spiced melon seeds to find Honest Xu and left the above materials.
One day, two days, three days, four days... Unknowingly, the rolling mill also had its annual leave, and there was only a week left before the Spring Festival.
Today was the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. According to tradition, today was the day to worship the Lord of the Kitchen Stove.
On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, I sweep the house, and on the twenty-fifth day, I grind beans. At twenty-six, he killed the pig and cut the meat of the year. At twenty-seven, he killed the chicken and rushed to the market. Twenty-eight cakes were steamed and steamed. Twenty-nine steamed buns. First, the 30th of the year was naturally New Year's Eve.
That being said, every family had different conditions, so it could be summed up in this sentence: "Buy New Year goods for the New Year."
The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month was also known as the Little New Year.
That morning, Yang Chen and Lan 'er changed into a new set of clothes and then rushed to the Lou family with gifts.
Yang Chen and Lan 'er would not spend New Year's Eve at the Lou family, so Yang Chen wanted to reunite in advance on the day of the new year and celebrate the new year in advance.
Lou Cheng's parents also thought so and arranged it this way.
"Uncle, Auntie, Happy New Year.”
" Father and Mother Lou, Lan 'er wishes you all a happy New Year. I wish you all the best in life and health. I wish you all the best in whatever you eat. I wish you all a happy life every day…"
"Haha, Lan 'er is so obedient. Here, this is a big red packet from Dad Lou.”
"There's also one here with Nanny Lou."
Father Lou and Mother Lou wanted to recognize Lan 'er as their goddaughter. Yang Chen did not object, and Lan' er also agreed. At present, it was just a missing link.
Therefore, Lan 'er addressed them as Father Lou and Mother Lou.
The reason why she called him that was mainly because Lou Xiao'e thought that her godfather and godmother were not as close as her parents.
Lan 'er had a red packet, Yang Chen also had one. After taking the red envelope, Lan 'er followed her parents to the living room, while Yang Chen went upstairs alone.
In the boudoir, Lou Xiao'e, who was wearing a simple cheongsam, was leaning against the door.
A daughter dressed up just to wait for her lover.
At this moment, Yang Chen really wanted to take out his camera and take a picture of the scene in front of him.
"Good sister, could it be that your boudoir is empty and lonely? Is it cold?"
"My good brother, are you thinking about some family's daughter?”
Look, this couple is showing off their affection? He really wanted to give them a few tight slaps.
