Chapter 1238 I'll Take Care of Your Son

Jia Haixia knew about the funding for Zhu Xiaoliang, after all, it was Jia Haixia who discovered the child.

She looked at the woman in front of her curiously and said, "You are Xiaoliang's mother, right?"

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother nodded hurriedly, looking embarrassed and uneasy.

As if she had thought of something, her eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "You are the only female fake master in the Antique Association, right?"

Jia Haixia was speechless for a while.

She said helplessly: "Can you just call me Sister Jia?"

The word "Master" sounds nice, but it feels particularly strange when paired with her last name.

So she usually likes people to call her "Sister Jia" rather than calling her by her name.

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother was slightly embarrassed, and then said: "I actually like antiques very much, but those things are too expensive and I can't afford them."

“So I often read some books on identifying antiques.”

"I bought the book you just published especially."

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother hurriedly turned around to look and then she remembered that the backpack was upstairs.

He turned back and said awkwardly: "I put all the books in my backpack upstairs."

“I saw it all the time I was in the hospital.”

Jia Haixia was a little surprised and asked a few questions out of curiosity.

The questions are all about what is written in the book.

What she didn't expect was that Zhu Xiaoliang's mother answered it very readily.

I can't say that every word is correct, but the general content is correct.

Jia Haixia was shocked.

It seems that this woman has indeed read her book carefully, and can even be said to have memorized the book by heart.

She couldn't help but get excited and asked, "When did you start liking antiques? Why do you like these things?"

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother smiled awkwardly and said, "When I was a child, my family also had a lot of antiques."

"My family was doing pretty well at that time. But then we played Landlord and gave away all our belongings."

“My parents also got a bad component because of it.”

"Over the years, I have been confined to the countryside because of this background, but I have also had the opportunity to be exposed to more things."

"I hid all that stuff secretly."

“Once the environment improves, I heard that antiques can be sold for a lot of money.”

“In fact, I also wanted to know how much these things could be sold for, so I started researching on my own.”

"After all, it costs a lot of money to find someone to identify it."

"After studying it, I found that there are so many tricks in it. The more I read, the more I liked it. Then I dove in."

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother said this awkwardly, and became more and more excited the more she spoke.

When Jia Haixia heard that there were old things in her house, she became interested and said:

"If it's convenient for you, you can bring those things over to me and I can help you identify them for free."

"Of course, if you want to sell it, I can buy it back at the market price."

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother nodded desperately: "Really? That's great."

"It's just that those things are all in my hometown, not in Yanjing City."

"I have to go home to get them, and they say they are worthless junk."

"Every time I fiddle with those things, my family would scold me and say something about me."

"But fortunately, the child's father has passed away. My son and I are the only ones left at home, and no one dares to speak out."

After a pause, she asked again: "Master Jia, can I learn from you in the future?"

"It's just that I don't have money to pay for tuition now, but I can write an IOU."

"If I have the opportunity to make money in the future, I will definitely pay the tuition."

Jia Haixia couldn't help laughing when she heard that.

"There's no rush to talk about these. We can chat slowly."

"If you are really interested in this and have talent, I can take you in as my apprentice."

"As for tuition fees, we'll talk about that later."

"Let's cook first, otherwise my daughter-in-law will starve."

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother nodded hurriedly before she realized what was going on.

Puzzled, he asked, "You said she was your daughter-in-law? But why did she call you sister?"

Jia Haixia smiled and said, "We got along very well with each other, like real sisters, so we became sworn sisters. After that, she became my daughter-in-law."

"We will discuss our own affairs."

"Don't worry about that."

Zhu Xiaoliang's mother smiled awkwardly.

She really didn't expect that city women were so good at having fun.

But this was someone else's private matter, so she didn't ask too much.

When the meal was ready, Jiang Wan went upstairs to find Xiao Liang for dinner.

Then I found that Zhu Xiaoliang was concentrating on writing a program, with his ten fingers dancing quickly on the computer.

When Jiang Wan saw this scene, the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up.

Unfortunately, her computer has no internet access.

It is very difficult to access the Internet these days. Even if you have a phone, you still need to apply for an Internet cable and then dial up to the Internet.

It took a lot of effort to climb up, but I fell down again after just a few minutes.

And this is only available in the urban area of ​​Yanjing City. You can't go to some places in the suburbs even if you have money.

The bottom line is that the network equipment is not perfect.

She had heard from Makino that the country was ready to invest in network construction and was putting a lot of effort into it.

So it is estimated that the network will be built in one or two years.

Despite this, Jiang Wan didn't actually hold out much hope.

She stood at the door and watched for a moment.

She tried to call out, but found that Zhu Xiaoliang was so focused that he ignored her.

She also knows that once a programmer gets inspiration, even ten cows can't pull him back.

If you don't finish writing this paragraph, or don't write down this inspiration before doing other things, you will forget it completely in the blink of an eye.

So Jiang Wan didn't call him and turned around to eat.

When eating, she would take a bowl and leave some food out, cover it with a lunch box, and then wrap it with a towel to keep it warm.

Wait until Zhu Xiaoliang finishes his work and then give it to him.

When Zhu's mother heard that her son was busy, she was a little surprised.

She said a little awkwardly: "My son's academic performance is not very good, and I don't know where he learned this."

"I don't pay much attention to him at home, especially recently because I was sick."

"At that time, he learned a lesson from the old man next door, and would go there whenever he had nothing to do."

“I don’t even know what I learned.”

Jiang Wan asked, "Is the neighbor grandpa he mentioned the one from your hometown?"

Mother Zhu nodded.

He sighed and added, "That's also a teacher who graduated from university."

"He was demoted to the countryside when the re-education camp was launched a few years ago."

"He lived in a cowshed for a while, and after he was rehabilitated, he refused to return to the city."

"They said the mountains and rivers in the countryside are beautiful, the food is good, and it's better than going back to the city where there's nothing to eat. So they stayed in the village."
