Yi Anan and Zhan Nanhui were not in a hurry and just waited.
The shadow floated outside for a while, and seeing no movement inside, it gradually became impatient, and actually knocked on the roof with an unknown object.
Zhan Nanhui took the pickaxe in his pocket, reached out through the window, and threw it hard at the roof. There was a plop, and then the thing became silent.
After waiting for a long time and making sure there was no sound outside, Zhan Nanhui left.
The pickaxe was thrown onto the roof and fell down again, stained with blood.
The bloodstains are very fresh and don't look like those from a ghost.
"It seems we have found a treasure!" said Zhan Nanhui.
Yi Anan nodded: "Take all the boxes away tomorrow, and I'll let Master take a look at the contents of these two boxes first."
Zhan Nanhui nodded.
Before the second day broke, Zhan Nanhui found a car and pulled all the boxes into their yard.
Yi Anan first took the painting "Night Rain in Xiaoxiang" and a few bottles to see Old Lady Tao.
The weather had been hot these past few days, and Old Lady Tao had been feeling increasingly uncomfortable. When she heard that there were ancient paintings to be seen, she perked up and showed them to Yi An'an.
"This is indeed a genuine work by Yuan Jiang, but I have never heard of this work. It is possible that it was a work that Yuan Jiang gave to me at that time." said Old Mrs. Tao.
"These bottles are indeed from the official Ru kiln, that's right, but these styles are not common, they seem to be custom-made." Old Mrs. Tao frowned slightly, "But this Ru kiln is not something that ordinary people can use, and it can be customized..."
Mrs. Tao's eyes suddenly flickered: "I thought of an allusion, just listen to it as a well story!"
Yi Anan nodded and listened attentively.
"This Ru kiln is the color that Song Huizong dreamed of and asked the official kiln to produce. But there is also a saying that when Song Huizong was young, he once loved a woman who played the role of Yan Yu Qing. Her daughter did not enter the palace, but lived an ordinary life with Song Huizong for half of her life outside the palace. Later, Song Huizong missed this woman very much, but she died young, so he ordered the production of this Ru kiln." Old Lady Tao's eyes flickered, "There is a story circulating in our circle that this woman still has descendants alive."
Yi An'an was stunned for a moment. This house only dates back to the Qing Dynasty and has little to do with the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the two boxes contained things from both the Song Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. They looked more like a collector's things.
"Keep these things for now. They will always be useful." said Old Mrs. Tao.
As long as it's authentic, it's fine.
Yi Anan agreed.
Even when someone came to deliver food, Old Mrs. Tao had no appetite.
"Master, let me make you some side dishes." Yi Anan volunteered.
Old Mrs. Tao nodded.
Yi Anan went to the kitchen and gave the kitchen attendant a tip of 20 yuan, and then he cooked one meat and one vegetable.
Yi Anan went to cook, while Old Lady Tao stroked the Ru kiln porcelains, seemingly thinking about something.
Yi An'an's cooking skills are good. After eating some, Old Lady Tao felt much better. She said to Yi An'an, "Keep these things for now. Don't tell anyone else for now. When I get there, I'll check the origins of these things for you."
Yi Anan nodded.
When Yi Anan returned to the house, Zhan Nanhui was missing. It was after midnight before Zhan Nanhui came back.
"I have been guarding there for half a day tonight, but I didn't hear any more 'ghosts'. Either the 'ghost' is injured, or he already knows that the things have been taken away by us." Zhan Nanhui said.
Yi Anan talked about what she told her when she went to see Old Lady Tao today.
"Just stay here for now. I'll ask you to pay more attention." Zhan Nanhui said.
Yi Anan nodded and talked about going back to Yanzhen.
It is now the end of August, and Kyoto University is scheduled to start school on September 11. Yi Anan plans to go back to check out the hot pot restaurant. Besides, she has to go to school in the capital, so she has to make some simple arrangements with Yan Zhen.
Zhan Nanhui was a little hesitant. He couldn't leave now because of Yi Aiguo's matter, and couldn't accompany Yi Anan back to Yanzhen.
"I'll let 그 accompany you back so that if there's anything you need, you can bring it back together." Zhan Nanhui said.
"It's enough to have ingots!" Yi Anan said, "I have to stay for another week when I go back, which is very inconvenient."
Zhan Nanhui thought about it and agreed.
However, he still had to find someone to protect Yi An'an in Yan Zhen. After all, after these incidents, Yi An'an was still in danger.
"Also, please take care of my master. I feel like her health is getting worse." Yi Anan was a little worried.
"I will pay attention, don't worry." Zhan Nanhui said.
Yi Anan nodded.
It seems she has to go and come back quickly.
Zhan Nanhui bought Yi Anan a sleeper ticket for the next day, and she arrived home at 11 o'clock that night.
At the station entrance, Tang A'ren drove a Red Flag car to pick up Yi An'an, saying that the car was sent by Zhan Nanhui.
Yi Anan smiled, and she knew that Zhan Nanhui had already arranged things here.
It is indeed more convenient to have a car.
After arriving home, she simply washed up and spent the night in silence. Early the next morning, Yi Anan went to Convenience Street.
There are already two hot pot restaurants on Bianmin Street!
Yi An'an was stunned for a moment. She had only been gone for more than a month, and the policy of vigorously developing the private economy hadn't come yet, and already here came a competitor?
When Yi Anan walked into the store, she saw Chen Yanmei looking down and counting the money.
Chen Yanmei has been sleeping in the store these days, working very hard. When she heard someone coming in, she immediately greeted them with a smile. When she saw Yi Anan, she immediately said, "Thank you, you are finally back. I was so anxious!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worried about having a competitor?" Yi Anan asked with a smile.
"You can still laugh. Look, our store has only been open for a month, and there are more than a dozen competitors next door, and their prices are cheaper than ours!" Chen Yanmei said.
"Really?" Yi An'an raised her eyebrows. It was already very rare to be able to open a store next door, and it could be cheaper than theirs. After all, their ingredients were all specially supplied by the town government, and some were obtained by Wang Daning. In this era of material shortages, there should be no place better than hers.
"How are you doing recently?" Yi Anan asked.
Chen Yanmei showed the account book to Yi An'an: "The business is still okay. There are at least 20 tables a day, and I can save 50 yuan, but it's not as good as the first half month after opening."
Yi Anan took a look and thought it was pretty good.
"There's no need to lock them up. Let's do our own thing. We have choices. More people come here to eat. Just keep calm!" Yi Anan said.
With Yi An'an as the backbone, Chen Yanmei felt much more at ease, so she nodded and asked people to prepare for lunch.
Yi Anan walked over with nothing to do, and saw a pretty figure standing in the hot pot restaurant next door. She was wearing a big red skirt with big waves. She turned around and actually smiled at Yi Anan.
It’s that Chen Sisi!
