    Seeing that Meng Zitao was very interested in her son's toys, Leng Hui was somewhat excited, thinking, her son's toys couldn't be some kind of treasure, right?  If it is a baby, how much is it worth?

    Despite Leng Hui's fantasy, after a while, Meng Zitao put the tumbler on the table. Seeing everyone looking at him intently, he smiled and said, "This tumbler is indeed quite old. I guess it dates from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.  It might even be used by the princes in the imperial palace in the late Qing Dynasty."

    Hearing this, Dajun was a little surprised: "The prince is still playing with this thing?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "You don't think so much now. At that time, this was a good thing. Ordinary people couldn't afford such a thing, and there was no place to buy it."

    Speaking of which, in the late Qing Dynasty, the number of toys in the palace increased dramatically. This was because Emperor Tongzhi was only 6 years old and Emperor Guangxu was only 4 years old. Immediately afterwards, Puyi "inherited Emperor Tongzhi Zaichun and concurrently  He ascended the throne when he was only 3 years old.

    Although they are emperors, they are still children. In order to make the little emperor happy, it became a clever trick for the concubines, eunuchs and maids to tease them with various toys.  As a result, the number of various toys in the palace increased day by day, and some foreign toys were also presented.

    Leng Hui asked: "Then how much is this toy worth?"

    Meng Zitao said: "Well, how should I put it? These kind of things are generally collected in museums. Few people sell them on the market and few people collect them. They are unpopular collections, so I am not sure about the value, but the basic value is not  It would be too expensive because it¡¯s made of celluloid.¡±

    Seeing that everyone didn¡¯t understand what ¡°celluloid¡± was, Meng Zitao explained it again.

    I heard that this was made of table tennis materials. Leng Hui was very disappointed. It seemed that this thing was really not worth much.

    Meng Zitao then asked: "Sister-in-law, I wonder if you can tell me the origin of this roly-poly?"

    Leng Hui said: "My mother gave it to me to play with when I was a child. I have always played with it well. Some time ago, I saw it when I went back to my parents' house and gave it to my son to play with."

    Da Jun took the words and said: "Her family used to be a big businessman, and it declined during the Republic of China."

    Meng Zitao nodded and continued: "Although this thing is not valuable, it is still a souvenir. You can put it on display at home. Maybe the value will increase after a while. In addition, it is best not to give up on this thing."  For kids to play with.¡±

    Many friends who are familiar with celluloid know that celluloid will emit the smell of camphor, because celluloid contains camphor. For example, some table tennis balls will smell this smell when they are brought in front of you.  Because of this, you can tell whether it is made of celluloid by smelling it.

    Even if not, rub it quickly with your hands to heat the object. As long as it is made of celluloid, it will smell like camphor.  Most resins do not have this camphor smell.

    Seeing that everyone was still confused, Meng Zitao said, "I just said that celluloid contains camphor, which has some influence on children."

    Hearing this, Leng Hui suddenly became anxious and quickly said that she would put her things away when she got home.

    While they were talking, Dajun¡¯s mother came with food again. Dajun¡¯s father saw that it was getting late, so he quickly invited Meng Zitao to the table and prepared to eat.

    Even though the dishes on the table are all served in big bowls, which don¡¯t look like much, Dajun¡¯s mother¡¯s craftsmanship is beyond praise. Let¡¯s just talk about the sesame water tofu skin that was served just now. It was really soft and delicious, with a unique flavor.  ; The bean curd beef that follows is ruddy in color, with a strong rotten meat flavor, and is fragrant; the Mandarin fish in Weishui has fresh and tender meat, pure taste, and endless aftertaste of eating.

    ¡°And so on, Meng Zitao felt that this meal was even comparable to Xu Jianwei¡¯s restaurant, and he ate it to his heart¡¯s content.

    When arriving at Dajun's house, drinking is of course inevitable. Dajun's drinking capacity follows his father's, and his father drinks more than him. His face does not change even after cup after cup, and his eyes are still very clear, as if he drank.  Just like water.

    Meng Zitao certainly has no pressure on wine. He can drink wine as water now.

    So, after the meal, the three of them drank quite happily. If Dajun's third aunt hadn't come over, the three of them would have drank for a while.

    Dajun¡¯s father put down his chopsticks and asked, ¡°Yueqin, have you eaten?¡±

    "I've eaten, and the matter has been taken care of." Yu Yueqin nodded, and then said: "I really have to thank Junzi and this young man for this matter today. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to get back the money I was defrauded of.  ¡±

    ¡°?; In order to put on a show, Meng Zitao and the others simply went home to have breakfast, and then headed to the hill. During this period, they tacitly agreed not to mention this matter, because talking about it at this time would not achieve a good effect.  .

    Seeing the hill in the distance, Meng Zitao paid attention to his surroundings and found that the figure of the man just now had disappeared.

    Seeing this, the two of them felt free to follow the path to the top of the hill.

    Because some villagers plant some crops at the bottom of the hill, the path is not deserted. However, as you go up, there are more weeds on the path, but the shape of the road can still be seen. This is mainly because of the holiday.  , children will come here to play and have some game.

    However, when we reached the top of the hill, there were almost no people coming here because of the ancient tombs, and the path was no longer visible, and the surroundings were overgrown with weeds (Remember the website address: www.  hlnovel.com
