397 In this volume, reincarnation is fortunate to meet with life
The son of the river worker was also in his teenage years old. He threw this jade pendant every day as a stone and smashed it into glass, but the magic weapon was a magic weapon and it was not damaged at all. Later, the man's son was born, and the jade pendant became a toy for the next generation of children, and grew up with the grandson of the river worker.
It was not until after the reform and opening up that the grandson of the river worker and the owner of the jade pendant finally realized that it might be a very valuable thing. Since ancient times, the processing center of Hetian jade has been in Suzhou. Now the handicraft market is booming again. Many ordinary Suzhou residents also knew that the value of ancient jade might be very high. This person also asked a friend to ask the jade master to see this jade pendant. It happened in the 1990s. At that time, someone bid to buy it, but he did not sell it.
This jade pendant did not continue to become a toy for children, but was collected by the owner of the jade pendant and carefully wrapped it with a piece of velvet cloth and locked it in the drawer of an old cabinet. The man's surname is Fan, and he is now the chef of Menghu Meifrog Hotel in Guanqian Street.
History is like a joke, and it is like experiencing a strange cycle. Cheng Tianle mobilized the demons to search for so long. In the end, Xiao Shao almost exhausted all his magical power to help him, but he actually returned to the starting point of Cheng Zong's practice. Cheng Tianle's earliest cause was that he accidentally ran to the Meifrog Hotel in Menghu to do odd jobs. It was Master Fan who proposed to Boss Wu to hire him.
Cheng Tianle did not promote the jade pendant this time, but just drew patterns to tell the demons to do it privately. Although several demon cultivators could meet Master Fan every day, Master Fan was just an ordinary person and did not know or participate in this matter. If Master Fan saw the patterns drawn by Cheng Tianle at that time, there might not be any of the subsequent twists and turns.
Xiao Shao left this message, where did she go? She exhausted her spirit and magic power, but did not completely dissipate. Instead, she hid the spirit in the spiritual charm of this scroll world, but could no longer condense into shape. Cheng Tianle understood the way of spiritual cultivation. If she was excessively damaged or used her natural magic power to consume it, the spirit body would dissipate.
Xiao Shao is the spirit of the painting. He is nourished by the spirit of the mountains and rivers and has not completely disappeared, but without the help of others, he will not be able to reconstitute and appear again for a long time. It may have to wait for hundreds of years to appear in the painting. But Xiao Shao also told Cheng Tianle. If he breaks through the realm of Dacheng Zhenren, he can sacrifice the feelings of the mountains and rivers in this magic weapon, which can help Xiao Shao condense into the form, just like he did when he helped Zi Hao.
After receiving this message from the world of the scroll world, Cheng Tianle burst into tears without realizing it. I am afraid no one knows what kind of emotion he has for Xiao Shao. How many people in the world can have the experience of the 21 years of experience in the false realm? Looking back, they first met again, it seems to be a false realm but not a false realm. They have been together in the scroll world for a short time.
Xiao Shao, the painting spirit, has a different temperament than ordinary people. Cheng Tianle made a promise to her and she immediately took action. Cheng Tianle didn't expect that she was so straightforward in doing things. She did not use her natural magical powers while practicing merits and regaining her skills, and slowly finding out the whereabouts of the jade pendant. In that case, it would probably take a long time.
Xiao Shao consumed all his magical power at one time, and had been scattered in the spiritual charm of the painting world and replenished it, directly telling Cheng Tianle the answer he wanted. Cheng Tianle wanted to see Xiao Shao again. Either wait for hundreds of years, or break through the realm of Dacheng Zhenren, to sacrifice and refine the charm of the landscape in this painting, and use his magical power to help Xiao Shao recondensate and form.
But if he did not break through to the realm of Dacheng Zhenren and had a higher level of cultivation, he would never have a lifetime of hundreds of years. The search for the jade pendant was to open the cave in Yu Daoyang, make up for the shortcomings of the magic tricks, and have real Dacheng magic powers. Xiao Shao did this to help him fulfill this wish as soon as possible, and if Cheng Tianle failed to achieve his wish in the end, it would mean that he would not be able to see her again.
Did he really not see Xiao Shao? No, this painting of landscape sentiment is Xiao Shao's breath and figure. And Cheng Tianle also knew that although Xiao Shao could not condense and form, he could see him, feel him, and know everything he did when he entered the painting world. Walking in the painting, this landscape style is the look she stared at him, and he was also lingered by her ubiquitous aura, and she could see his tears at the moment...
Cheng Tianle never expected this situation in advance. He regretted that he asked Xiao Shao for help so recklessly. He agreed to her request, so she helped him like this. Cheng Tianle murmured to this world and said to the world of the painting in his soul: "Xiao Shao, wait for me, I will definitely help you reconcile and form. In his lifetime, he will definitely try to bring you out of the painting. When he can't see you again during this period, he will always be with you in this world of painting..."
When Cheng Tianle withdrew from the world of painting, he realized that his tears were covered with tears, wiped away the tears, walked out of the ancient house back garden, and his eyes became unprecedentedly deep, even so deep that it was a bit difficult to understand. Cheng Tianle, who was once heartless, had never looked so worried.
...
Master Fan is quite annoyed recently. He was born in the 1960s and is now in his fifties. He has a low level of education. After graduating from junior high school, he studied cooking and became a chef. He had been working as a cook at the age of 20. He had been working as a big spoon in a state-owned restaurant for more than ten years, and has been working from an ordinary chef to a level 3, level 2, level 1, and level 3. Later, the unit was reorganized. Master Fan was strong and had professional skills at the time, so he went out to find another job and was still a chef.
Boss Wu's hotel was not originally opened on Guanqian Street, nor was it called Menghu Meifrog. Master Fan has been working with Wu Yanqing for almost twenty years. Since the Menghu Meifrog Hotel opened on Guanqian Street, he has been a chef. His life is spent on the stove cutting board, frying, cooking and frying. It is both busy and fulfilling. The chef, waiter, and other miscellaneous things have changed one round after another, but Master Fan is still here. His chef's time is longer than the signature of this hotel.
Wu Yanqing does not come to hotels often. Master Fan often has the final say in any small matters in daily life. He is very respected here and has a sense of accomplishment, as if he can find the meaning of life and the value of existence. Master Fan’s monthly income now totals 7,700 to 8,000, which is not low for ordinary working-class people.
His wife is an ordinary worker in a state-owned enterprise. She just retired last year. Their salary and pension combined are about 10,000 yuan per month. If it were just an old couple to live, it would be very comfortable.
But the actual situation is very nervous now, because Master Fan's son Xiao Fan is facing the problem of getting married and starting a career. Master Fan doesn't read much, has a low level of education, and has worked in the restaurant kitchen all his life. Perhaps out of a mentality of making up for his regrets, he certainly hopes that his son Xiao Fan can make a name for himself. Xiao Fan is very smart and has had very good academic performance since childhood. He was admitted to a university in Nanjing. After graduating from undergraduate studies, he went to Shanghai to study for a postgraduate degree.
Now Xiao Fan is already in his third year of master's degree and will graduate in less than half a year. He is hesitating whether to continue to study for a doctorate or start a job? On the other hand, a more important question is that Xiao Fan had a girlfriend two years ago. Soon after getting along, he moved out of the dormitory and rented a house to live together. Now it's time to talk about marriage.
The girl planned to stay in Shanghai to work, and the unit had already contacted her. Xiao Fan would stay in Shanghai for both her doctoral degree or her work. The first problem she faced was the house. The couple hoped to buy a house with relatively convenient transportation, at least two bedrooms or more, so that it would be convenient to work in a metropolis, and at least not spend a few hours on the road every day. If you have children in the future, you can also bring Lao Fan and his wife to take care of them. These are very realistic considerations.
But in this way, the location of the house cannot be too biased and the area cannot be too small. In Shanghai, how expensive is the house price? The couple found a lot of places that basically meet the requirements. They have seen new and second-hand houses, and the full payment is at least 2 million yuan. The down payment for the mortgage, decoration and marriage preparations must be given 700,000 to 800,000 yuan at a time.
Master Fan’s life is very simple. He usually works in a restaurant and does not need much expenses for food and clothing. He still has hundreds of thousands of savings on hand. However, he is responsible for his son’s college and graduate school. In the past two years, Xiao Fan has rented a house outside to buy various daily necessities, and the expenses are quite large. Recently, his savings have not increased but decreased.
Now that his son is going to get married, this request made Master Fan very embarrassed. He has seen that girl, who is Xiao Fan's graduate classmate. In Lao Fan's eyes, he is a senior intellectual. He is worthy of his son. He is also pretty and beautiful. Although his temper is a bit reserved and spoiled, it is not a big problem. Modern urban men and women can have a relationship for two years, and Xiao Fan is optimistic about her.
But Lao Fan can't afford the money. The total savings of the old couple are only more than 200,000 yuan. Unless they sell their house in Suzhou, they go to Shanghai to buy a new house and live with their son and daughter-in-law. But Lao Fan is unsure of such a life. I don't know if the two generations can get along with each other, especially whether the relationship between their daughter-in-law and their spouse can be harmonious. I have seen many family conflicts around me.
Besides, his current income is pretty good, but if he quit, he can only get a socially coordinated pension insurance. The old couple only has about 4,000 yuan. The full payment of the house in Shanghai is still not enough, so he has to continue paying the mortgage. Do you have to find another job as a chef in Shanghai?
Master Fan is an old Suzhou native. He is unwilling to leave the place where he has lived for most of his life, nor is he willing to sell his house and lose his future retreat, and he is even more unwilling to leave Menghu Meifrog Hotel so early. In the 1950s, he remembered a "family heirloom". A jade pendant his grandfather picked up when dredging Shantang River channels...)
