Du Feng smiled bitterly, "Mom, I understand what you mean. Besides, I don't want to take over your job now."
Du Feng is not a fool. Du Ming and Yang Li have worked for so many years to get their current salary and benefits.
If he were to take over, he would have to start as an apprentice.
I don’t know how long it will take to reach their salary level.
After hearing what Du Feng said, Yang Li asked again, "What about the money and tickets?"
"No, there's no use for me."
Everyone: ...
After a moment of silence, Yang Li finally spoke, "How about I find someone to introduce you to a girl tomorrow?"
Du Feng looked helpless, "Mom, why are you talking about this again?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense again, Du Hong also tried to smooth things over, "Mom, how about letting my second brother think about it again and let him give you an answer tomorrow?"
"Okay." Seeing this, Yang Li also sighed and looked at Du Feng, "Then give me an answer tomorrow."
Du Feng also nodded in agreement.
Yang Li no longer had the heart to talk. "Okay, it's getting late. Let's all go back and rest."
After everyone returned to the room, they had different thoughts.
Du Hong's heart was filled with joy and sweetness, and the corners of her mouth would unconsciously rise when she lay on the bed.
Yang Li and Du Ming were a little worried. They lay on the bed and looked at each other for a long time.
Du Ming said, "Do you think we made a mistake in choosing to let our second son take care of us in our old age?"
Yang Li was silent for a moment, then said helplessly, "Do we have any other choice? The eldest is serving in the army, and we don't know if he'll ever come back. The third one is even worse than the second one."
After hearing this, Du Ming sighed and closed his eyes. "Okay, go to sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Yang Li responded and closed her eyes.
As for Du Feng, he couldn't sleep at all while lying in bed, his mind full of thoughts about whether or not to go on a blind date.
Only Du Sen had no worries and fell asleep quickly.
...
In the middle of the night, Li Xu suddenly opened his eyes.
I got up, got dressed and went out.
All the way to the black market.
I found Ah Hu, a black market person, and asked, "Ah Hu, can you still exchange fine grains for coarse grains?"
Ah Hu shook his head and said, "It can't be changed."
"No way, you don't have any coarse grains now?"
"Almost. Originally there was still some, but as you know the current situation, our boss stopped the trade and said that the remaining coarse grains should be kept for the brothers as life-saving food. And there are a lot of people who want to exchange fine grains for coarse grains tonight."
Li Xu raised his eyebrows, "Oh, your boss is quite righteous."
"That's right, otherwise why would he be our boss?"
Although he couldn't see Ah Hu's expression when he spoke, Li Xu could hear a strong sense of pride in his voice.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, then you go ahead and do your work. I'll go take a look around."
Then I went to the black market for a walk.
Sure enough, I didn’t see anyone willing to exchange coarse grains for fine grains.
Originally, Li Xu wanted to exchange some coarse grains for Mr. Li and others, but now no one is willing to exchange.
Although coarse grains are not as nutritious as fine grains, who cares about that nowadays?
Nothing is more important than having more food to eat now.
Eat one more bite, and maybe you can survive.
Then Li Xu wandered around for a while.
There are a lot of people here tonight.
Many people also came with their household items to exchange for some food.
But no one was interested.
Li Xu had also looked at them, and most of them were common things.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a man holding a long box in his hand.
Li Xu couldn't help but become interested.
After all this time, this is the first time I've seen someone on the black market carrying a long box.
Li Xu stepped forward and asked the man, "Excuse me, what's in this box?"
The man was also wrapped tightly, with only his eyes showing, but judging from his figure, he should be quite old.
Seeing Li Xu asking, the man looked him up and down, then said, "Calligraphy and painting."
"Hmm?" Li Xu became even more interested. "Is it an antique?"
After seeing the man nod, Li Xu's eyes seemed to light up, and he quickly said, "There are too many people here, it's not convenient, can we find a corner to chat?"
Since coming to this era, Li Xu has never deliberately collected antiques.
But now that we've met, there's naturally no reason to miss it.
You know, these antiques can be passed down from generation to generation.
After hearing this, the man said in a dull voice, "I want to exchange for food. Do you have any?"
"have."
The man then asked, "Are you willing to change?"
"If it's good, yes."
When the man heard this, his voice trembled and he urged, "Come on, let's find a place to talk."
After saying that, he took Li Xu to look for a place to chat.
There's nothing I can do, he's been here for quite a while.
Many people also asked about what he had in his hand.
But when they heard that they had to exchange it for food, everyone turned around and left.
Li Xu was also the first person he met who said he was willing to exchange food.
How could he not be excited?
After the two of them found an empty corner.
Li Xu asked, "Can I see this?"
The man didn't refuse. He put the wooden box on the ground and opened it.
Take out a scroll from it.
Then he asked Li Xu to help hold one end, while he held the other end and slowly unfolded it.
After unfolding a short section, Li Xu suddenly said, "Alright, alright, put it away."
"Huh?" The man was stunned. "You don't want it anymore?"
There was an indescribable sense of loss in his words.
"Yes, put it away first, don't damage the painting."
Hearing what Li Xu said, the man immediately rolled up the painting and put it into the box with great energy.
Then he asked hesitantly, "Why did you stop reading halfway?"
In fact, Li Xu doesn’t understand this at all.
He was afraid that there was a blank scroll inside, so he asked to take a look.
When it was unfolded a little, I saw a lot of seals on the painting.
This made him quite convinced.
Besides, what can you see in the dark?
But Li Xu certainly couldn't say it directly, so he coughed twice and said, "I've seen enough, make an offer."
Unexpectedly, the man not only did not offer a price, but instead asked excitedly, "Just by looking at that short section, you can tell that this is a painting by Xiangguang Jushi?"
Li Xu subconsciously asked, "Who is Mr. Xiangguang?"
man:...
After saying this, Li Xu also reacted and looked at the man with a wry smile.
The man was silent for a moment before asking, "Whose calligraphy and painting do you think this is?"
Li Xu thought about it and said hesitantly, "Mr. Xiangguang?"
The man was silent again, and after a long while he finally said, "Then do you know who Hyun Jae is?"
