Chapter 20: Repairing the Rosewood Screen
Huo Chichi walked downstairs with short legs and without looking back. When she reached the stairs, she stopped.
But still didn't look back.
"Second brother is also very tired of repairing the screen. After I sell the screen, I will pay you the labor fee."
After saying this, Huo Chichi left Yiyuan without looking back.
Huo Qing'er stood by the window upstairs, looking at the stubborn little figure walking away outside the garden with a livid face.
At that moment, he felt as if he had lost something?
But what exactly it is, he himself can't tell.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Huo Qing'er raised his eyebrows. He was the only one in the world who could repair the red sandalwood screen.
He was sure that Huo Chichi would come back on his knees to beg him.
But it was too late. He would not give Huo Chichi a chance, let alone forgive her.
The next day, Liyuan.
Huo Chichi leaned against the wooden gate of Liyuan and ordered the servants coming and going.
"Slow down when you enter, and don't knock down the screen. What you have in your hands is not an object, but two hundred million."
The servants are even more cautious. If there is a bump, they cannot afford to pay for it.
At this time, Qin Chu walked out with a confused look on his face and looked at Huo Chichi who was busy with things, a little puzzled.
"Chichi, what are you doing?"
Huo Chichi picked up the red glass lamp and azure porcelain vase on the ground and skipped towards Qin Chu.
"Uncle, Chichi will tell you later, it's time for you to carry these two bottles in."
He reached out and handed the glass cup and porcelain bottle to Qin Chu, and then said: "Uncle, these two bottles are worth over 100 million. If you take the time to sell them, the money will be regarded as my investment in the Qin family."
Taking the red glazed lamp and the azure porcelain bottle, Qin Chu was stunned at first, and then his eyes gradually brightened. In the past two years, the Qin family had not declined, and he often visited Qingfeng Pavilion. He clearly remembered that Qingfeng Pavilion was auctioning red glazed glass.
When it was lit, it caused quite a stir.
Many famous collectors wanted to buy it, but eventually the red glazed lamp fell into the hands of the young master of the Ye family. Later, I heard that Huo Qingyi spent a lot of effort to buy the glazed lamp from the young master of the Ye family.
Now the red glazed lamp was actually obtained by Chi Chi.
"Chichi, how did you get the red glazed lamp from Huo Qing'er?"
Steal it!
But he couldn't say that, so Huo Chichi told Qin Chu tactfully.
"Grandpa felt sorry for me and asked each of the Huo family to give me 60 million in pocket money. Huo Qing'er was so poor that he used antiques to offset his debt, so I just took two of them."
Qin Chu suddenly felt that his old face was very glorious. Chi Chi was becoming more and more accommodating to Qin Shu, and Bingxue was so smart that he could get high-quality products whenever he picked them up.
Huo Qing'er's nose was almost crooked with anger. He recalled how Chi Chi and that brat Ye Chengjin played tricks on Huo Qing'er in Qingfeng Pavilion two days ago. Qin Chuxiao's shoulders trembled.
"Huo Qing'er isn't mad, right?"
After thinking for a long time, Huo Chichi's angry face appeared in Huo Chichi's mind: "It's almost as if he's not crazy."
On leaving Liyuan that day, Huo Chichi told Qin Chu that he wanted to have his own studio in Liyuan with a comfortable bed.
Qin Chu agreed immediately and quickly made room for Huo Chichi.
The red sandalwood screen was also moved into Huo Chichi's studio.
"Uncle, I have to work now, so don't disturb me if you have nothing to do."
The silk texture of the red sandalwood screen was seriously damaged, and she had to work very hard to repair it.
"Okay, uncle, I won't disturb you."
Huo Chichi nodded and began to work hard.
Qin Chu exited the room and gently closed the door.
Time seemed to have stood still. The repairs on Huochichi began at around nine o'clock in the morning and continued until four o'clock in the afternoon. No food or water was consumed during the process.
Qin Chu was a little worried. Although Chichi was very good, he was still a four-and-a-half-year-old boy. He was in an important stage of body growth and could not go hungry even after a meal. He opened the studio door worriedly and looked inside.
.
The small-breasted dumpling was wearing plain casual clothes, squatting with his back to her, concentrating on repairing the screen.
He didn't even hear the door open, but his serious look made Qin Chu's heart flutter.
This child grew up in a poor environment and was often abused by his adoptive parents. When he returned to the Huo family, he was not taken seriously. He was only four and a half years old and should have lived like a little princess, but they forced him into the appearance in front of him.
With a sigh, Qin Chu said distressedly: "Chichi, get up and eat something first."
Huo Chichi turned to look at Qin Chu, but did not stop moving his hands. Seeing Qin Chu's worried look, he comforted him and said, "Chichi is not hungry. Let's have dinner. Uncle, please help Chichi call grandpa."
, tell her I won’t go back tonight, and I will work overtime to repair the screen tonight.”
Seeing her determined look, Qin Chu stopped trying to persuade her and gently closed the study door again, then went to call Huo Zhenting.
Huo Zhenting agreed, but asked Butler Zhang to deliver Huo Chichi's clothes and daily necessities.
It wasn't until dinner time that Huo Chichi came out of the studio with a yawn. He didn't feel hungry when he went to work, but when he was free, he heard his stomach growling.
Qin Chu smiled and shook his head, carried Huo Chichi onto the dining chair, and hurriedly ordered the servants to bring the food to the dining table.
He was so hungry that Huo Chichi ate like a hungry tiger attacking a wolf.
Qin Chu immediately turned into a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Huo Chichi.
"Eat slowly, don't choke, and drink some soup."
Huo Chichi stuffed the meat buns into his mouth and nodded in response.
After a while, Huo Chichi's belly was round and round, she rubbed her belly and said.
"Uncle, when will the Qingfeng Pavilion hold the auction?"
"Qingfeng Pavilion opens at irregular times every week. The next opening should be in five days."
Huo Chichi raised his eyebrows in thought. When he took pictures of the red sandalwood screen, many collectors were very excited. However, due to the serious damage, the collectors felt that there was no hope of repairing it, so they did not dare to take pictures.
Now that the red sandalwood screen will be repaired soon, the collection value will increase significantly. The problem is that people have to believe that this screen is really restored as before.
"Uncle, I will repair the screen tonight and ask Qingfeng Pavilion to take it for appraisal. I believe this screen will definitely fetch a good price."
"Don't worry, uncle will definitely take care of it."
Huo Chichi nodded, she believed in her uncle.
"Uncle, I will continue to repair the screen. If I don't come out, don't go in and disturb me.
And the most important thing is, Chichi needs to catch up on his sleep tomorrow, so don’t wake me up, wait for me to wake up hungry and eat."
Qin Chu shook his head helplessly and agreed.
But in the future, Chichi must change his daily routine, otherwise he will not be able to grow taller.
Huo Chichi's repairs were not completed until the early morning of the next day, and her eyelids were already fighting. She didn't have time to change into her pajamas, so she threw herself on the soft big bed and fell asleep.
