************
Fang Bo is in his fifties. When the founding of the People's Republic of China, Fang Bo's parents gave up their property in Southeast Asia and returned to the country to build their motherland. Unexpectedly, the country started a riot in the country after just over ten years.
Fang Bo's background was of course directly swept into the five black categories, and finally sent him to the countryside with his grandfather who was criticized and criticized for his labor reform.
Fang Bo, who was born as a young master, could not bear such suffering? If he had not had his grandfather's protection, Fang Bo would have chosen to commit suicide like his parents.
Later, Uncle Fang became a teacher and friend with his grandfather, and learned a lot of antique appraisal skills from his grandfather. After a few years after the change of opening up, Uncle Fang found his relatives overseas and brought him abroad.
Because of the movement, Fang Bo was delayed and never married for life. Later, he came to America and opened an antique shop in Flushing and took root.
It was the relationship between her grandfather and her teacher and friend that made Fang Bo take great care of Jin Muchen, so Jin Muchen was not worried that Fang Bo would lie to him.
When Jin Muchen pushed open the door of Fang Bo Antique Store, Fang Bo had just returned from buying vegetables outside. When he saw Jin Muchen entering the store, Fang Bo was stunned.
Fang Bo is now alone. Although he is only in his fifties, his hair is already gray and his figure is not tall. His face can still see the traces of suffering that year, but he looks very good.
"You boy, the sun is rising to the west? Why do you think of me, the old man today?"
Fang Bo's tone was a little angry, obviously blaming Jin Muchen for this guy. Jin Muchen felt very guilty even though he hadn't come to see him for so long.
"Hey! I'm really sorry for Uncle Fang, some time ago..."
"Hey! I know, are you young people busy? I just said casually, don't take it to your heart."
Fang Bo's understanding made Jin Muchen feel even more guilty.
He realized that when he first arrived in New York, he lived in a family hotel set by the school. Not long after, he moved out of the family hotel designated by the school. He lived in Fang Bo for several months, and Fang Bo had never confiscated his rent.
It was here that he completed his year of preparatory studies and was admitted to Columbia University. It was at that time that he met Ma Ling.
However, Fang Bo didn't like Ma Ling very much, and he was fascinated by Ma Ling's beauty, so after he officially became boyfriend and girlfriend with Ma Ling, he made an excuse and said that Brother University was too far from Flushing, so he moved out of Fang Bo's house because of the need for school.
Ma Ling is also a very smart girl. She has long noticed that Fang Bo doesn't like her either. It was under Ma Ling's instigation that he came back to see Fang Bo less and less. Now, thinking about himself before, he is really a bastard.
So he really couldn't find an excuse to explain his previous behavior just now, but fortunately, Fang Bo didn't mind at all.
"It's almost time, I'm a little hungry. Let's go out for dinner and come back."
Although Fang Bo's face was very serious, his eyes were filled with smiles. He had no children and no children, and Jin Muchen was the grandson of his great benefactor. The grandson of his benefactor who was both a teacher and a friend came to visit him today, and he was of course happy.
Looking at the enthusiastic Fang Bo, Jin Muchen said a thousand words to his mouth for a moment, but he didn't know how to say it, so he could only be pulled out of the store by Fang Bo.
Fang Bo’s antique shop usually has the best business on weekends, but now it is not yet time for dinner, but Fang Bo goes out to eat and doesn’t even do business anymore. This friendship really makes him feel like a hot stream that suddenly surges into his heart.
I want to eat Chinese food in New York, but the Chinese takeaway shop on the street doesn’t count, but there are only two places, one is the Chinatown in Manhattan and the other is in Flushing.
However, Manhattan's Chinatown is mainly based on Cantonese cuisine and Chaozhou cuisine. In recent years, it has been taking some high-end routes to try to cater to the appetites of foreigners, so neither Jin Muchen nor Fang Bo like the taste there very much.
In the Flushing area, with the influx of new immigrants from the mainland in recent years, the trendy hotels across China have bloomed everywhere.
What are Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Northeast cuisine, Xiaofei sheep chain hot pot, and even kebabs, as long as you can imagine, there are everything here.
It is very fond of immigrants in other parts of mainland China, and every weekend, the business of various hotels here is generally very popular.
Because it is close to New Jersey, many Chinese in New Jersey will come here to have tooth sacrifices on weekends.
Although it was only 10:30 in the morning, Jin Muchen and Fang Bolai's Little Pepper Sichuan Restaurant were already full, and the hall was full.
Fortunately, Fang Bo was an old customer here, so he greeted the waiter, who quickly opened a small bag for them on the second floor.
Before Fang Bo could order the dishes, these authentic Sichuan dishes were served like running water.
Jin Muchen hasn't eaten such authentic Sichuan cuisine for a long time, so there is no need to be polite when he is with Bo Fang, and the two of them have a feast together.
After eating half full, he called a few bottles of beer, and then he started to slow down and started chatting while eating. Jin Muchen also told Fang Bo about his recent situation.
After hearing this, Fang Bo also comforted him a few words.
"What do you say about that child Ma Ling? I didn't pay much attention to her a long time ago. That girl is too purposeful. When she was with you, her purpose was not very pure. Unfortunately, you couldn't listen at that time..."
Although Fang Bo's tone was very quiet about the breakup between Jin Muchen and Ma Ling, he could tell that he was very happy. Jin Muchen was the grandson of an old friend, so of course he didn't want to see his benefactor's grandson fall into a woman.
Fortunately, the two of them broke up, and Jin Muchen's losses were not huge. Jin Muchen could see through it now. A woman who can only share the joys and sorrows cannot be sad for her.
"But so are you. If something happened at your home, why didn't you say hello to me, and just went to school to go to the school to go off the school? This delayed the study, but it was a big deal!"
It can be heard that Fang Bo is really concerned about Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen could only nod helplessly.
"Brother Fang, I understand everything you said, but who made such a sudden incident happen to my family? I can't do anything about it. It's like this. I can't add burden to my family. I'm not too young. I can't always ask for money from my family. It's time to give back my parents."
After Jin Muchen said that, Fang Bo thought about it, and then said, "Well, you kid chose to take a year off from school. It's better to go out and exercise yourself. It's better to be in contact with society than to stay in school and not to contact the outside world."
Fang Bo agrees with Jin Muchen's choice to leave school and make money to support his parents. He has been in the United States for more than 20 years and has seen many American college students rely on themselves when they go to college, and earn all their tuition and living expenses.
So at this time, he thought that Jin Muchen's choice was right, and young people should exercise.
"By the way, you come to me today, what's going on?"
Only then did Fang Bo remember the main topic. In fact, the arrogant Jin Muchen followed him all the way to the hotel, and he never left the small box in his hand. He felt that this kid had something to do.
Jin Muchen finally waited for the opportunity, smiled, then took the small box over, and carefully handed it to Fang Bo.
"Some time ago, when I was working, I got an unexpected opportunity, but I was not sure, so I would like to ask Bo Fang, you can help me with my palms."
Fang Bo smiled and took the small box, then opened it, and saw the yellow-bottomed and pastel-colored open bowl inside. He picked it up with three fingers, but he muttered in his mouth.
"If you had learned more from your grandpa, you would have to ask me for advice after learning your own skills? What? Now you are suddenly enlightened and you suddenly want to play with antiques?"
In fact, Fang Bo has been worried about the inheritance of his antique knowledge. Nowadays, young people are willing to learn this. He actually has the intention to let Jin Muchen and himself learn this antique knowledge, but after several tests before, this kid lacks interest.
Now that this kid is enlightened and suddenly plays with antiques, he still feels very happy.
However, he suddenly stopped talking, and then his originally joking expression suddenly became serious. He originally thought that this kid had just taken away an antique and must have been deceived.
After all, what good things can he receive from a newbie who is not even in the door? But as soon as he started this bowl, Fang Bo felt something strange. It was not that this bowl was wrong, but that this bowl was too right.
"Well, the carcass is processed in fine and light, with fine texture, fine whiteness and moderate weight. The glaze is moist and even, smooth and white, bright and flawless. There is a small squid and short thin line on the edge of the bowl, which has been simply repaired, and there is chicken claw pattern at the bottom, which is quite complete. The production process and the style of the times are obvious, the patterns are vividly portrayed, and the lines are smooth, and good things are good! It is a good thing to open the door! Hey, boy, where did you collect this good thing?"
After hearing Fang Bo's comment, Jin Muchen felt a big rock in his heart, and immediately became happy. He said that he was picking up a bargain, but he got it right!
