The Xu family's old house is not far away, and it can be reached in five minutes by car. Xu Shisan drove the car, and Gu Xingzhao's car was left in the Antique Street.
Sitting in Xu Shisan's car, Gu Xingzhao felt comfortable everywhere and had a good sense of space. The key was that this car had a sense of low-key luxury, and he felt like he had been sublimated. No wonder Xu Shisan was so rich but only drove this car.
She suddenly wanted to replace her car worth 400,000 yuan, even though she had bought it not long ago.
Gu Xingzhao: "What brand is your car?"
Xu Shisan smiled, "Red Flag National Salute."
Red flag national ceremony?
Gu Xingzhao pursed her lips. It was a very unfamiliar name. She had done a lot of research on buying a car before, but had never heard of this brand.
She immediately took out her mobile phone, opened the browser and searched for it. The price that jumped into her eyes made her gasp and she quietly exited the browser.
Suddenly I felt that people like me who don't have much money in their pockets should be more pragmatic. That car worth 400,000 yuan is already very good. It can be driven for more than ten years. There is no need to change it.
At this moment, Xu Shisan next to him suddenly asked, "Do you like this car?"
Gu Xingzhao seldom asked me anything, but if he asked, it must mean he was interested.
Gu Xingzhao pulled his lips and smiled awkwardly, "It's OK."
The main reason is that I don't have much money in my pocket, so I can't like it.
Xu Shisan: "If you don't mind a second-hand car, I'll give it to you. I just happen to want to buy a new car recently. It's boring to always drive the same one."
Gu Xingzhao was silent: "No, just asking casually."
If she hadn't just searched the price, she might have accepted it.
Not to mention second-hand, even if it was third-hand, she really couldn't afford it.
Why is Xu Shisan like a boy who gives away money?
The car quickly drove to the old house of the Xu family. It was made of blue bricks and black tiles, with arches and flying eaves. Xu Shisan led Gu Xingzhao on a path paved with bluestone slabs.
Looking along the road, the doors and windows are all made of classical wood carvings. Walking along the stone road, you can see that the courtyard is decorated exquisitely and elegantly, with a pool of clear water and an ancient style, which is in line with the style of the Xu family's business.
Gu Xingzhao sincerely praised: "Your house is very beautiful."
Xu Shisan smiled, "When my grandfather was here, the house didn't look like this. It was renovated a few years ago. If you had seen it before, you would definitely not praise it."
Gu Xingzhao immediately became curious, "Did you renovate it?"
Xu Shisan: "No, I don't go back to the old house very often. Only my uncle lives here. He renovated it."
Gu Xingzhao thought secretly that Xu Shisan's uncle had quite good taste and seemed to be a very stable person; at least he wouldn't wear a flowery shirt.
She followed Xu Shisan through the courtyard and vaguely heard the clear sound of bells. Until they walked up a winding corridor and saw the wind chimes hanging on the corridor, she suddenly realized.
At this moment, she saw a straight figure walking from a distance and entering an attic. The man was wearing a black Zhongshan suit.
Gu Xingzhao felt that the silhouette flashed by and looked familiar. "Who was the man in black just now?"
Xu Shisan: "My uncle, don't worry about him."
As he spoke, he scanned the electronic lock of the door in front of him, verified his fingerprint, pushed the door open, and said in a welcoming manner, "This is my treasure house."
Following him into the treasure house, Gu Xingzhao saw a dazzling array of antiques, at least hundreds of them. He immediately forgot about the uncle from the Xu family whom he had just met.
The treasure house is very large, and in the display case in the center is the game console-like thing that Xu Shisan had shown Gu Xingzhao before.
The more Gu Xingzhao looked at it, the more he felt that this was the game console he had given to Lu Xingyao, and his emotions became a little weird.
Xu Shisan was still talking to her. "I don't see any collectible value in this thing, but since I can remember, it has always been placed in this display case in the middle, and there is no record of its origin."
As he spoke, he leaned against the display case. "I actually looked for a lot of information, but none of it matched, so I seriously suspect that this is just an old game console. Maybe it was left behind by a modern person who traveled through time!"
Gu Xingzhao felt a little guilty for some reason. "It's probably just a coincidence. How could it be possible to travel through time? This isn't a novel or TV show."
Xu Shisan smiled and glanced at the time. It was still early, only eleven o'clock. If he wanted to keep Gu Xingzhao until noon, he could naturally invite him to have lunch with her.
"I'll go get something to drink. You watch for a while."
"good."
Hearing the footsteps leaving in a hurry, Gu Xingzhao walked to the display cabinet next to him. There were many things in it. Like the game console just now, there was no text indicating the source. Many of them looked very similar to the things he had sent to the Lu family, especially the crutch. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt.
Another round of slow footsteps sounded behind him, and Gu Xingzhao asked, "Xu Shisan, do you think this thing looks like a cane?"
The voice that answered her was not Xu Shisan's, but another voice that sounded strange yet somewhat familiar.
"It is very similar."
Gu Xingzhao was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and saw a man in a black Zhongshan suit. It was the man he had just seen outside, Xu Shisan's uncle.
Her eyes moved upwards and fell on the man's face. She was stunned for a moment.
The man had a high nose bridge, and his thin lips were slightly red against his fair skin, with clear lip lines. His deep eyes seemed to be soaked in snow water. They seemed gentle, but there was a sense of indifference. His black hair was combed meticulously, revealing a sense of rigor.
While Gu Xingzhao was still stunned, the man had already walked up to her and stopped, as if he had blended into the quiet and quaint environment around him.
He glanced around and finally landed on Gu Xingzhao. He asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
Gu Xingzhao came back to his senses immediately. Looking at the man in front of him with red lips and white teeth, he became nervous unconsciously and swallowed his saliva. "I..."
"Uncle!" Xu Shisan's loud voice immediately attracted the attention of both of them.
He walked quickly towards Gu Xingzhao with two bottles of drinks in his hand, stuffed the drinks into Gu Xingzhao's hand, and stood aside to introduce the man in the Zhongshan suit, "Uncle, this is my girlfriend. She is interested in antiques, so I brought her in to have a look."
The man paused for a moment and nodded, "Yeah."
Xu Shisan introduced Gu Xingzhao with a smile, "A Zhao, this is my uncle, just follow me and call him that."
Gu Xingzhao laughed dryly twice, and after a while, under the gaze of the two, he said dryly: "Hello."
Not to mention that I am not Xu Shisan's girlfriend, so I can't shout along with him.
The most important thing is that she couldn't call the man in front of her "uncle" no matter what.
Because this younger uncle of the Xu family has a face exactly like Lu Xingyao who calls himself "ancestor" every day.
