Zhou Xiru was stunned. She came for the "spiritual jade". Of course, it would be even better if Tang Bohu could have the whereabouts of "The Begonia Spring Sleeping Picture". Of course, the key is to get the complete collection of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival".

Academician Li’s half map, what the hell is that?

She knew that the Academician Li mentioned by Cao Tianxiang was her grandfather Li Yinghong.

For some reason, Zhou Xiru suddenly felt that the Li family seemed to have declined. Her fairy-like mother was just a doctorate.

As for her, Lu Yiwen made a fuss and he didn't graduate from college.

She was thinking about whether to wait to spend this period of time, and she would study hard and take a doctorate degree no matter what?

"Ms. Zhou, didn't you come for the map of the Sky Garden?" Cao Tianxiang asked in a daze.

"No!" Zhou Xiru smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, I want to ask you, are you holding the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" in your hand?"

Cao Tianxiang couldn't help but smile and said, "Ms. Zhou, where do I have such a thing? The only few versions of the manuscripts on the market are either in the hands of private collectors or in museums. I really don't have them."

"You have a copy of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", you always have this one?" Zhou Xiru smiled and said, "I have collected a few copies. If you want to collect them all, you also like to collect them. Naturally, you understand that even if it is a copy, it needs to be complete."

"I know this thing, but it's not in my hands." Cao Tianxiang said, "That copy seems to be something from the Qing Dynasty palace and it was circulated. Zimo's child should have told you that during the Republic of China, our Cao family had a family once, and another volume was taken away by our great-grandfather, including a picture of "The Begonia Spring Sleeping Picture" copied by a court painter in the Qing Dynasty."

Zhou Xiru said, "Mr. Cao, your family is so arrogant!"

"If it is really arrogant, there must be original works, not copy." Cao Tianxiang said with a smile.

"Where is the spiritual jade?" Zhou Xiru asked, "At that time, Cao Xiangqin was holding a colorful stone in her hand?"

"Yes!" Cao Tianxiang laughed out loud when he heard Zhou Xiru say this, "Miss Zhou, you have to know that my ancestors were a literati and a literati who wrote novels."

"This..." Zhou Xiru smiled embarrassedly, "You can't say that, "Dream of Red Mansions" is a good book."

"Dream of Red Mansions is naturally a good book!" Cao Tianxiang smiled, "But, Miss Zhou, you don't know anything. Generally speaking, literati, especially those who write novels, accidentally saw something, and then they had a big idea. In this way, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, come to my house to see the spiritual jade?"

Zhou Xiru's eyes lit up, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Director Cao is righteous. A young literary woman like me who studies art likes me, likes a spiritual jade."

When Xu Zhizhi and Professor Wang heard Cao Tianxiang say this, they all knew that the so-called spiritual jade was not a good-looking thing, but Zhou Xiru was in a hurry and they were embarrassed to pour cold water on her.

"If Miss Zhou likes it, I can give up my love!" Cao Tianxiang laughed.

"You're serious?" In an instant, Zhou Xiru's eyes lit up.

"Yeah!" Cao Tianxiang smiled, "Miss Zhou is just a stone that is not good-looking and colorful, but the ancestors carefully passed it down and kept it."

When Zhou Xiru heard him say this, she was suspicious, but she didn't ask anything.

"Director Cao, you have finished talking about the serious matters between Miss Aru, let's talk?" Professor Wang raised his glass to him.

"Professor, Wang Houzi has been paying attention to me repeatedly - if you want to collect antiques on the road, you must serve you well. Don't be polite. Just give me instructions if you have anything to say!" Cao Tianxiang said hurriedly.

Professor Wang couldn't help laughing and said, "Director Cao, you are the director of Jingdezhen Museum. I am just an ordinary archaeology professor. You are too polite. I'm just asking about Guixu Map?"

"Ms. Zhou said just now, it's not for this map." Cao Tianxiang said with a smile.

"I really don't know this map." Zhou Xiru smiled and shook her head, saying, "My goal is spiritual jade. Of course, it would be even better if I could receive the real Tang Yin's "Bear of Begonia Spring Sleeping Picture".

Cao Tianxiang said: "Miss Zhou, I think the "Spring Sleeping Begonia" may also be a fabrication of Master Cao."

"Don't your family have a copy?" Zhou Xiru smiled, "Since there are copies, there will naturally be authentic works."

Cao Tianxiang shook his head and said, "The book "Dream of Red Mansions" has not been completed. There are countless copybooks and various printed copies outside. I have to say that Master Cao is very powerful at this point."

"At the beginning, "Dream of Red Mansions" was also sought after by high-ranking officials! Then, it is reasonable for a painter to draw "The Begonia Spring Sleep" with Tang Yin's painting technique."

Zhou Xiru couldn't help but smile and said, "Director Cao, what do you mean, I don't want to find it anymore, I'll draw one by myself?"

"Haha!" Cao Tianxiang smiled, "Okay, Professor Wang, Miss Zhou, Mr. Xu... After dinner, go to my place to sit and see my collection?"

In an instant, Zhou Xiru's eyes shone.

"Director Cao, are you bringing a weasel into the chicken coop!" Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.

"I don't know who it was yesterday, but I was thinking about Director Cao's famous porcelain." Zhou Xiru cursed with a smile, "Do you still have the nerve to talk to me?"

One meal is a meal that makes you happy. Everyone is smart and never mentions the story of fighting the ancients.

After dinner, Cao Tianxiang invited them to his collection room and cooked tea to entertain them.

Zhou Xiru visited the treasure room of the Cao family like a small museum, with envy on her face.

Fortunately, Xu Zhiyi was obsessed with porcelain, but the things he collected must be intact and beautiful. After all, he is a face-controller.

"Miss Zhou, look, is it this thing?" Cao Tianxiang took out a small brocade box from the drawer and sent it to Zhou Xiru, saying, "The so-called spiritual jade."

Zhou Xiru was curious and opened the brocade box. Sure enough, there was a "stubborn stone" in the brocade box.

Yes, that's right, it's just a stubborn stone. This stubborn stone is just the size of a pigeon egg. It's red or red, black or black, green or purple or purple, and it's also a little yellow. It's really reliable to lean on the colorful colors.

As for the base material, Zhou Xiru judged that it was really jade material, but it was a little rough.

As for Hetian jade, it is important to be white as cream and moist as crispy. This jade must not be matched.

Zhou Xiru held it in his hand and immediately followed, the system gave the identification result - the spiritual jade.

Seeing the system's identification results, Zhou Xiru was a little confused. This... is the legendary spiritual jade? What is the system doing?

Could it be that there is any mystery in this jade?

Or maybe this jade is the inspiration for Master Cao to write "Dream of Red Mansions", so the system also identified it as the spiritual jade.
