Chapter 60
While taking the two of them into the house, the old uncle shouted to his wife in the kitchen with a full heart: "Cui, add two more chopsticks, there is a guest!"
"Okay, okay, got it. β
A long-haired woman wearing an apron poked her head out of the kitchen, and when she saw Chu Fengping and Wang Yunshi, her first reaction was stunned, and then she showed a friendly smile and nodded at the two of them: "This young man and little girl are so handsome, come, sit down quickly, Lao Liu, you go and pour two cups of tea, I'm too busy here!"
"You know, you still need to say such a trivial matter?"
Uncle Liu muttered, and brought out the best Longjing tea stored at home, for fear that Chu Fengping and Wang Yunshi would be dissatisfied, "Two, our family is not as good as the metropolis, there are no delicacies from the mountains and seas, don't dislike it!"
"How is that possible? If I'm not mistaken, this tea is the best tea that you can't buy on the market. β
"Yo, the young man is very discerning, and you also like to drink tea?"
"Like. But it's just a little bit of a surface, not professional. β
......
It was only a few minutes after entering the door, and Chu Fengping and Uncle Liu had already chatted as if they had known each other for many years. Wang Yunshi sat next to Chu Fengping, silently sending Longjing to her mouth, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart-why is this surnamed Chu so familiar?
If you want to have a meal, you can say that you want to have a meal, but you have to pretend to be pitiful and say that the car is broken, and you don't know what you are thinking in your heart.
The two chatted and chatted, and the topic somehow came to the history of the house.
Chu Fengping smiled at the Longjing and asked casually, "Uncle Liu's origin of this house is not simple, right?"
"Well, why did you say that, young man?"
Looking at him with a shocked face, Uncle Liu's eyes and eyebrows were full of relief and joy, as if he had met a confidant who was rare in a hundred years during the Bo Yazi period, and he did not have the slightest displeasure at being peeped at in his privacy, but was even more excited.
"It's very simple, when I walked in just now, I roughly browsed the layout of the uncle's house, and it was very elaborate and exquisite. Although it may not seem like much at first glance, when savored, there are carefully arranged details everywhere. β
"For example, the southeast flower pot and the big tree planted in front of the door all echo each other with the nearby mountains and rivers, and the pattern is quite good. In a word, Feng Shui is excellent!"
"If the eldest uncle is just an ordinary person, it is absolutely impossible to arrange the house so exquisitely......"
The chatterbox was opened, Chu Fengping chattered non-stop, his mouth was like a river, and the light in Uncle Liu's eyes deepened, and Wang Yunshi was in a complicated mood - why didn't she find out that Chu Fengping was still a person who could read feng shui?
went out to hunt for treasures with Chu Fengping, but he saw many unknown sides of him.
Hearing the end, Uncle Liu slapped his thigh with excitement, and his voice was raised a lot: "Ouch, young man, you and I are really destined! To tell you the truth, my grandfather's grandfather used to be an official to the third grade, and he was a Qing official who was praised by everyone in the Qing Dynasty! Not to mention City A, only a few nearby urban areas are within his jurisdiction. β
Before he finished speaking, Uncle Liu's wife walked out of the kitchen with a plate of fragrant home-cooked food.
As soon as she heard that Uncle Liu was bragging again, she immediately frowned: "Old Liu, you almost have it! The hero doesn't mention the courage of the year, the past has long passed, and it's no fun to mention it again!"
Indeed, the Liu family was once very brilliant, and this house was also passed down by Uncle Liu's grandfather's grandfather.
It's just that in the next few hundred years, there will be wars and coups d'Γ©tat, and when everything has calmed down, Liuli Village is no longer what it was back then.
"How can you say that it's boring? The great fame of the old ancestor can't be forgotten by our descendants!"
Uncle Liu disagreed, waved his hand, obviously not listening to his wife's words.
The sister-in-law rolled her eyes, turned around and went into the kitchen again.
Several people continued to chat, and Wang Yunshi also interjected a few sentences from time to time, but more often she silently listened to Chu Fengping looking for a topic - she was full of thoughts about her own auction, where did she still have the heart to participate in the exchange between the two old men?
I don't know when I'll finish this meal and when I'll really start collecting antiques......
Ten minutes later, a variety of side dishes filled the table.
While they were sending delicious food to their mouths, they chatted about the shortcomings of the family.
Chu Fengping took a big bite of rice and ate it very fragrantly: "Uncle and sister-in-law, are there only two of you in this family?"
"Hey, I have a son who went to the city to work, and he usually lives in a rented house, and only during the Chinese New Year will he go back to the village to reunite with us for two days. Speaking of this, Uncle Liu couldn't help but sigh long, "Alas...... I don't know what that kid is doing now, has he been bullied......"
The sister-in-law's face was also ugly, and she echoed with a wry smile: "In these years, everyone is the master of the flames, if there is no money in hand, he will be bullied wherever he goes, not to mention that our son is from a rural area and has no support." β
They also want to be like other parents, using their accumulated connections to smooth out the stumbling blocks on the road to the future for their sons, but God does not fulfill people's wishes, the uncle and sister-in-law have planted the land in Liuli Village for most of their lives, and there are no connections in the city!
Chu Fengping's heart moved.
Yes, although the principles of "equal treatment" and "non-discrimination" have spread all over the streets, there is still a long way to go to actually implement them.
"Uncle and sister-in-law, don't be sad, as long as you have the strength, it will be a matter of time before you get ahead!" Chu Fengping grinned, stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, "Oh, look at me, I am also a rural child, but now I not only have an inexhaustible monthly salary, but also find such a beautiful girl as a girlfriend!"
Wang Yunshi also nodded yes: "Yes, as the saying goes, gold always shines!"
They originally intended to comfort the uncle and sister-in-law, but who knows, after the words fell, the uncle and sister-in-law glanced at each other, but their mood was even lower.
It turned out that Uncle Liu's son had a falling out with his girlfriend who had been talking for several years not long ago, and he completely blew it.
The uncle and sister-in-law had already regarded the girl as their own daughter-in-law, and when they heard that the two had broken up, they immediately became anxious, and only after carefully investigating the reason did they know that the girl disliked Uncle Liu's son's poor family, no car and no house, and ran away directly with an old nouveau riche who could be her father.
Chu Fengping was speechless after listening to the ins and outs.
God, Uncle Liu's son's experience is too similar to him, and even his girlfriend is as virtuous as Li Renyu.
"Money is really hard to do. Chu Fengping thought for a moment and asked, "Uncle and sister-in-law, why don't we sell something to make up for it first?" After all, things are dead, people are alive, so it's important to live a good life first!"
