After returning home, Linglong took out all the things she bought from Liuli Street to admire.
Some need to be cleaned again.
Since she bought these things because she liked them very much, she didn't pretend to be generous and give them to others as gifts when she left the compound.
The other people in her in-laws' family that she likes may not like them, so why should she bear the pain of giving them up?
When she needs to give a gift, she will naturally choose the right one.
Seeing how much she liked these things, Zheng Tiansen laughed.
"If you like, I'll accompany you around more often when I'm free."
"Okay, okay."
She studied history herself, and she has a different feeling towards these things that have been accumulated over the years.
Whether it is for research interest or collection, I am willing to buy it.
She had already decided to customize a treasure cabinet for her home, and would display all the treasures she bought in the future in the cabinet.
It not only has decorative effect, but also makes it convenient for her to play with and appreciate it.
Of course, such a treasure pavilion should be placed in the study, and people who are not very close to you will not be allowed to come in and see it easily.
When she was working at the Cultural Relics Bureau, Linglong became more thoughtful and asked her colleagues if they knew any masters who were proficient in antiques. After all, this was the Cultural Relics Bureau, so they should have more information in this area.
After she asked this question, several colleagues laughed.
"Linglong, you also said that this is the Cultural Relics Bureau, and we have experts in the field."
"Really? Where?" If it was in the bureau, that would be more convenient. She could ask for advice whenever she had time and improve her knowledge in the relevant area.
With the guidance of her colleagues, she sent her children to school early after lunch, and then hurried to the family area of the Cultural Relics Bureau, bringing a bag of fruit and a few cans of food, and visited an old expert in the bureau.
The old expert is old and has suffered a lot in the past few years. His health is not very good. He is now semi-retired and only comes when the bureau needs him.
The old expert was a little surprised when Linglong, a stranger, first came to his door.
After she explained her purpose, the old expert did not agree immediately. He just asked her to sit down and asked her in detail.
The old expert’s surname is Wei. He is over 60 years old and looks very thin, but his eyes are bright.
When I learned that Linglong was a college student who just graduated from the history department this year, I had a much better impression of her.
After learning that she wanted to learn about cultural relics and antiques, but only because she liked collecting them, her tone softened.
However, the old expert quickly raised a question.
"They say that gold is cheap and antiques are plentiful. Although the prices of antiques have been generally low in recent years, if they're really good, they won't be too cheap. This is a hobby that costs a lot of money. Are you sure you want to stick with it?"
Linglong, who had never mentioned her private affairs in the unit, became frank when faced with the old expert's doubts.
"To be honest, I do some business and make quite a bit of money every month. I'm not exactly rich, but I can still afford a few things I like. And I also know that I should spend within my means."
If she can't afford something that is really too expensive, she won't buy it. She is not that persistent. She can only get the greatest satisfaction by developing her hobbies within her ability.
Expert Wei was a little surprised. "You're so young, you work for a government official, and you're still running a business?"
It's no wonder that he was doubtful, because in today's environment, people generally look down on those who do business.
"Don't worry about you always laughing at me, my original intention was to earn more money to make the living conditions of my family better."
Expert Wei laughed. "This is human nature. Why should I laugh?"
After just a short chat, Linglong felt that she and Expert Wei had a perfect rapport.
Although Expert Wei is an expert in cultural relics research, he is not old-fashioned and pedantic.
Before coming, she was a little nervous, thinking that if Expert Wei had a weird personality and was difficult to get along with, then she would just give up studying.
It's not like she wants to achieve great things in this field, so she has to put herself in a difficult position to study.
Good job, Expert Wei is much better than she imagined.
After chatting for a while, Linglong accidentally saw the clock hanging on the wall in Expert Wei's house and exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh, it's getting late, Mr. Wei. I have to go to work first. I'll come visit you when I have time."
"Okay, let's go."
Expert Wei smiled and sent Linglong out, feeling pretty good.
After he retired, he felt quite lonely at home.
He was married, but his wife died during the war, and he has been single ever since, without children.
If you stay in any field for a long time, you will gain some experience.
He happens to be smart and willing to work hard.
He once had a great reputation in the industry, but that fame also brought him some backlash.
It was only because someone came forward to help him that he was able to survive to this day with his old and frail body.
It’s just that in some aspects, my mind has become less concerned and I just want to live a quiet life.
Even though he has semi-retired, there are still people who come to him for advice in recent years.
But most of those people are very utilitarian.
The only reason he wanted to clear his confusion was to make a profit.
He was disgusted by this.
That's why when Linglong expressed her purpose today, he didn't agree immediately. It was only after he learned about Linglong's situation and ideas that he changed his mind.
He used to be a professor in a school, and he was happy and willing to learn from him out of genuine interest.
Even after Linglong left, I was already looking forward to her next visit.
As for Linglong, the family quarters of the Cultural Relics Bureau was not far from the unit, but by the time she passed by, she was already late.
In fact, she was so immersed in the conversation with Mr. Wei that she forgot to check the time.
But when she arrived at the office, no one blamed her for this, and Linglong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
A leisurely unit also has its advantages.
No one even asked her why she was late, as if no one cared much about it.
Sitting in the office, thinking about the conversation between herself and Mr. Wei, Linglong laughed and was glad for her bold visit.
If Linglong didn't have to pick up the kids and go home to cook after work, she would have liked to sit with Mr. Wei for a while.
She talked about this with Zheng Tiansen in the evening, and he admired his wife's initiative.
"You found yourself a teacher so quickly."
"Of course. I will do my best to do what I want to do."
"Then you should study hard, maybe you will surpass me soon." He joked.
Linglong was full of confidence. "Just wait, when I learn a lot, I'll show you how to do it."
After saying this, Zheng Tiansen mentioned other things.
"Sister-in-law Aihong asked you."
Linglong felt a little guilty when she remembered that she hadn't been back to the family quarters for several days.
"Let's take a break this time and go back to stay for a day."
"Okay, that's what you said."
"Yes, I said so." Unfortunately, she had just wanted to take a rest and then visit Mr. Wei to learn, but now she could only lean back.
