Power and Wealth

Seven o'clock.

With the sun setting and dusk approaching, the glorious night gradually covered its head.

Villa No. 1 of the Standing Committee of the City Council, a vegetable fragrance drifted out of the kitchen door seam, and the fragrance sprayed very well. In the living room, Xie Huilan took a blood pressure meter to measure Han Jing, who had just been discharged from the hospital in the morning. Xie Jing and Xie Lan Xie Hao were all looking at each other. Soon, the drip sounded clear and the blood pressure came out. "Pulse 76, blood pressure 70-110, normal. ”

Xie Jing relieved herself.

Han Jing smiled softly: “I told you everything was fine, don't worry. ”

Xie Huilan squinted and slowly unwrapped the measuring belt on her mother's arm. “It's time to eat. Drink the medicine first, Xiao Hao. Go get a glass of water. ”

“Hey!” Xie Hao immediately turned upside down.

Han Jing patted Xie Huilan's hand on the back. “I knew you would call your brother. Why don't you go? By the way, where's Bin? Are you coming today? ”

Xie Huilan smiled, “I called him and he said to come over, but I just called a few more times. My phone may be dead, I can't turn it on, I don't know what to say. I'll try again.” Go ahead, touch the phone dialed the number, a few seconds later Xie Huilan put the phone down, his eyeballs narrowed, "or shut down, my mother dared to be late for her big life, and kept the whole family waiting for him, this little bin! ”

Han Jing touched her hand, "Something must be going on over there. ”

Xie Huilan stood up to his mother and said, "Go to the table. Let's eat without waiting for him. ”

She looked at the watch and frowned. Mrs. Han was hospitalized last night. Xie Huilan accompanied her to bed. But Dong Xuebin, the grandson-in-law recognized by the old man, went from the hospital without even saying hello. She couldn't see anyone during the day. Who would have thought that night would not come? It's Auntie's birthday. She doesn't turn it on when it's so important? Isn't this a bit big?

Over there, Boss Xie Guobang, Penis Xie Guoliang and Lao San Xie Guojian also came down the stairs.

Xie Guobang, look down, “Xiao Dong hasn't come yet? ”

“He's in a bit of a hurry.” Xie Huilan gave Dong Xuebinyuan a sentence, "Almost there. ”

Xie Guojian is a lieutenant general. People are straightforward. When he heard the words, he frowned: “What time is it? What could be more important than your mother's life? ”

Thank you very much.

Xie Huilan smiled and looked at the past. “Uncle, you have a problem with that. The local political axe is not the same as the army system. This is a peacetime. You don't have much going on there. I know that, but it's different in different places, right? Everything should put the interests of the people and the interests of the country first. If there is an earthquake over there, Bin and I will come back to wish my mother life. Don't say the people refuse. My mother will have to slap me, don't you think?” It smells like gunpowder.

He also felt that Dong Xuebin had lost his manners this time, but when he saw his sister's expression, he didn't say a word. He didn't want to scold her. His sister's temper was well known to the family. He was also a teacher when he was young, so he was always a little afraid of his older sister.

Han Jing stared at his daughter, "Huilan! How can I talk to your uncle? ”

Xie Guojian was pissed off. “You're a short guardian. He's late. Can't I say a word? Huh?”

Xie Guojian's wife, Xi Lifen, quickly pulled him off, “You don't have to say anything. ”

As soon as Xie Hao slapped his head, he made a paused gesture. “Dad, sister, how did you two choke? Eat. Eat. Eat.

Xie Guoliang smiled, “Third, come on, let's eat. ”

It can be seen that everyone is in a bad mood because of the loss of the sandstone bodhisattva statue of Tianlong Mountain Cave.

The bell, the bell, the telephone at home rang.

Han Jing immediately stood up, "... I'll get it. ”

Everyone knew that Han Jing was waiting for this call, so Xie Huilan helped her through, “… Hello. ”

“Sister-in-law, I'm Xie Guoyue, I heard about your body... how is it? ”

Han Jing's eyes didn't fade easily. “Ah, my sister-in-law is fine... hmm, hmm... thank you... hmm, you also pay more attention to your body..."

Han Jing has actually been waiting for Mr. Xie's phone call. Every year, when she was born, the old man would call. Years like this, there is no exception, but this year... but not this year. Han Jing's nose is a little sour. She put up with it. After hanging up the phone, she sat back at the dining table, took a breath and smiled. She greeted the children on the table. Thank them for coming to congratulate herself.

Everyone sees it in their eyes, it hurts in their hearts.

It was supposed to be a happy day, but now… for a while, the atmosphere on the table was a little silent.

Ding-dong, ding-dong, the doorbell rang. Xie Hao jumped out of the chair immediately, went out and looked at the monitor, opened the door, “Brother-in-law, are you here? ”

Dong Xuebin had some asthma. “Are you late? ”

Xie Hao lowered his voice: “Be careful. My sister just had a fight with my father over you.” He said it briefly.

After listening, Dong Xuebin felt warm in his heart. I didn't expect Huilan to be so tight on himself. "Uh, blame me me. Look at this mess. Huilan too, how can you talk to elders? Hi.” He quickly changed his shoes with the door, stepped on the cotton slippers and walked in panting. Dong Xuebin was exhausted on this day. His body and spirit were tightened for a long time. When he came, he took another short run, and he was sweating.

Everyone looked at him as soon as he entered the living room.

Dong Xuebin took a bag and apologized. “I'm sorry, I went to prepare a gift for my aunt, my phone ran out of electricity. This, I will punish myself with a cup and punish myself.” I poured myself a glass of wine, and Dong Xuebin grunted it out, one drop left.

Han Jing moaned with a smile: "Just come. There are not many guests. Sit down. ”

Sit down, Dong Xuebin winks, winks, sweats, what atmosphere is this?

It was supposed to be a happy birthday banquet. Xie Jing felt it was all her responsibility. If she hadn't lost her bodhisattva statue, she wouldn't have... Thinking about it, Xie Jingxin stabbed herself. As soon as she reached out, she took the porcelain from the kiln from the side and turned the conversation around. “Auntie, wish you a long life, a porcelain, and don't know if you like it.” Just hand it over.

Han Jing took a look and said, “Okay, thank you for being quiet, huh? ”

Xie Hao and Xie Lan and others also gave gifts. Han Jing thanked them together, "It's beautiful, thank you very much. ”

It is said that it should be Xie Huilan's turn to deliver something. However, she was not planning to come to wish her life this time. There are still things in the county, because Han Jing suddenly arrived in a hurry and went to bed with the hospital. Of course, she did not have time to go shopping, so Xie Huilan smiled and glanced at Dong Xuebin's face. The stall was empty hands, which means it is your turn.

Dong Xuebin would like to clear his voice and slowly open the cloth bag. “Auntie, this is my little heart and soul with Huilan...”

The buckle was unbuckled. Xie Hao and Xie Lan and others looked at it and wanted to see what Dong Xuebin had prepared a gift for the whole day.

One second… two seconds…… what's inside finally reveals itself.

When they saw the statue of Bodhisattva, everyone was stunned.

Xie Huilan shouted, “Buddha statue? Where'd you get it? ”

Dong Xuebinxin said where else could I get it? Then he handed it to Han Jing, who was a little stunned, “Auntie, wish you good health and happiness every day. ”

Han Jing took it and touched it with a nostalgic touch, "Xiaobin, thank you, you have a heart. ”

What's the reaction? Dong Xuebin couldn't cry, his heart was wrong, why aren't you excited?

Xie Huilan looked at him with a smile. “You can do it. There is only one sandstone bodhisattva sitting in Tianlong Mountain Rock Cave that has been excavated, and it has been in the hands of the old man and my mother. Even the imitation is hard to find in the market. Did you take a day to find one? Oh, it's kind of like the real thing. Um, there's a divine rhyme, too. The material seems to open the door, too? Nice. Is that a copycat? It's gonna take at least a hundred grand to get this coloring, right? ”

Xie Hao also focused, “Same as real. ”

Dong Xuebin almost fell off the chair. Fuck me, man, I tried so hard to steal it from the book, how can it still be called true? It's fucking true! However, Dong Xuebin is also aware of their attitude, like "Qingming Upper River Map", which exists in the Palace Museum, so you really need someone on the market to come up with a exactly the same "Qingming Upper River Map", you don't even have to think about it to know it is a fake, the same reason.

Han Jing knew that Dong Xuebin was in the mind, but the high imitation was still a high imitation. Even imitation could not be true. Besides, Han Jing's depressed emotions were hooked up again, his heart ached, he quickly put things away, and he didn't look again. She knew that the true Bodhisattva statue would never come back, and all she had to do now was adjust her mind quickly and stop thinking about it.

”- [sic]“ Aunt, this statue of the Bodhisattva...

Han Jingqiang smiled: “I like it a lot, I'll give it to you later, huh? ”

“No, I mean this thing...”

Cilliffen interrupted: "Oh, eat while it's hot. ”

Xie also frowned and looked at Dong Xuebin. The heart said you didn't see the look on Auntie's face. Why are you still talking about Buddha like a Buddha statue?

Xie Huilan touched him with his hand under the table and stopped him from saying it.

The atmosphere on the table was made a little low again.

After being interrupted several times, Dong Xuebin became depressed. I'll go. Dude, I can't even say that.

Suddenly, the plasma TV behind him sounded like a piece of news. Xie Hao's ears were fine. After listening to it, he stunned. Hurry up and turn up the volume of the TV.

Just a line at the bottom of the image - a major theft at the Tokyo National Museum!
