Chapter 245

"Aunt Li, you go get busy first, I'll handle it here!" Yan Qing said, looked at Mrs. Wu and sighed lightly, and said, "Mrs. Wu, these three paintings can be returned, but!" Before you return the silver taels, you have to answer me two questions, what do you think? ”

As soon as the woman heard that Mrs. Su was willing to return her money, she softened and got up, walked up to Mrs. Su happily and nodded in agreement: "Mrs. Su, you say, don't worry!" Whatever you ask, I will answer truthfully"

"Auntie don't say it, I just remembered it!" Yan Qing glanced at her, smiled and rolled up the calligraphy and painting and asked, "Auntie came to return the calligraphy and painting, presumably Mr. Wu still doesn't know, right?" ”

"I got it in front of him, what's the matter? The donkey's head spent all the money on buying calligraphy and paintings, and see if these messy paintings could be eaten? The woman's face sank, and her tone was full of anger and arrogance, completely forgetting that she had taken other people's brocade and made three handkerchiefs.

Such an annoyed arrogance attracted the attention of the painters in the hall, and even Qing Song, who was entertaining the painters, was inexplicably surprised.

Aunt Li heard the commotion in the back hall, hurriedly dropped the basket in her hand and walked out.

Yan Qing glanced at the two paintings and calligraphy on the counter, because the original wrapped calligraphy and painting of the cloud brocade was marked with the signature of the buyer, but now the weaving cloud brocade is gone, and only three paintings and calligraphy are left in front of her, she naturally does not know who the aunt is for to return the calligraphy and painting, she smiled slightly and asked: "Auntie, where is the weaving cloud brocade that wraps the calligraphy and paintings?" ”

"Oh!" The woman didn't think Mrs. Su was a good talker, and she smiled awkwardly, "That... The material is very good, I use it to make a veil."

The alley was narrow and long, sandwiched between whitewashed walls and tiles, not large enough to fit a horse-drawn carriage aisle.

During the temptation in the art gallery, Yan Qing had already guessed that Mr. Wu was a pseudo-rich man, but she didn't understand what Mr. Wu wanted to do through this alley. What's more, he still has the calligraphy and painting he bought from Hongyantang in his hand, since she came with her, she must find out to rest assured.

Just when Yan Qing was puzzled, Mr. Wu walked out of the alley, she hurriedly stopped and stood at the entrance of the alley, and saw Mr. Wu take out a key from his sleeve pocket, and walked to the opposite row of courtyard houses, one of which had "Fu" on the door.

Mr. Wu opened the lock, and suddenly poked around, and didn't see his unreasonable mother-in-law come back, so he hurriedly entered the courtyard happily with calligraphy and paintings, and closed the courtyard door.

Yan Qing saw this and followed out of the alley, she walked outside the courtyard gate, looked inside through the crack in the door, and didn't see anything clearly? Looking at this place again, it is obviously the place where the common people live, and since it has been confirmed that Mr. Wu is a pseudo-rich man, then he must be right to return here.

Back to the gallery.

The children were standing in a row in front of the door, anxiously looking forward to the back of the teacher's wife on the street, Aunt Li came out of the hall and persuaded them not to move, so she had to let Mr. Su call them into the house.

Yan Qing lifted the curtain and saw her husband say a few words to the children, and the children obediently went back to the house.

"Let's stop here!" She said to the groom.

"Okay!" The groom stopped the carriage and took the money.

"Lady!" When Su Jin saw that his lady had finally returned, the stone in his heart fell safely, he held his lady's cold hand in his palm, and asked her, "Listen to Aunt Li, is there something wrong with the lady going out?" What made the lady leave before she had time to say hello to her husband? ”

Yan Qing looked at him and smiled: "Husband, this matter is related to Mr. Wu, let's go into the house and talk slowly."

"Good!" The two of them returned to the gallery together, and Aunt Li saw that Xiaoqing came back safe and sound, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly turned around and worshiped God.

Yan Qing told them: "I went out with Mr. Wu, and my husband accompanied Mr. Wu back to his house that day, but he didn't come back for a long time in the teahouse, because Mr. Wu was actually a pseudo-rich man..."

"Pseudo-rich?" Aunt Li didn't understand what interrupted her and asked, "Xiaoqing! This pseudo-rich? What is the meaning? ”

Yan Qing smiled and made an analogy and explained: "For example, a person is obviously very poor, but he wants to pretend to be rich in front of others, Mr. Wu is like this!" ”

"Huh?" Aunt Li suddenly thought of surprise and said: "He is a pseudo-rich man, and he specially came to our gallery to buy calligraphy and paintings, he won't have any intentions, right?" We've been unlucky enough to be unlucky enough these days, but don't let anyone murder us behind our backs, I'm really afraid."

Hearing Li Meizi say this anxiously, Feng Zicheng couldn't help but say with a worried face: "Xiaoqing followed behind Mr. Wu, did you find anything unfavorable to the gallery?" ”

"I don't know if the clues of the discovery will bring disadvantages to the gallery? If my guess is correct, the courtyard where Mr. Wu entered was where he lived, and since he entered the door, I stood outside the door for a while, and I didn't hear any movement inside."

Listen! Aunt Li and Feng Zicheng breathed a sigh of relief, and she said, "That's good!" You're back. Let's pack up and go back, it's not early today, the children are hungry when you come back, right? ”

"We're not hungry!" The children endured hunger and pretended to be firm, and after speaking, they looked at each other, and then looked at the master and the master and nodded firmly.

"Good!" Yan Qing knew these children too well, and now she is becoming sensible, she smiled and said, "Okay! Then let's pack up and go back, Aunt Li, you and Uncle Feng will also go to the private school for dinner tonight! ”

Aunt Li agreed affectionately and said, and a few people began to clean up the calligraphy and paintings downstairs and on the second floor, and the children were not idle, and they all sensibly helped the teacher and grandmother.

The day passed.

On the third day of the second consecutive bad luck, early in the morning, Su Jin came to the gallery one hour in advance, and neither did he find anything unlucky, nor did he find anything unusual.

As soon as they entered the door, Luo Yitou saw Mr. Su and Mrs. Su walking over and said: "Mr. Su and Mrs. Su are just right, Luo sent someone to check, and the second lady of Qi Mansion left the house angrily on the afternoon of the day of the ascension, and it is known that she returned to her mother's house, and the old lady only learned about it afterwards, it is true."

"According to that, it wasn't Second Mrs. Qi's doing, it seems that I misunderstood Second Lady!" Yan Qing hesitated for a moment, suddenly thought of it and said with a smile: "Luo Yantou, Xiaoqing still has something I want you to help you check."

Luo Yitou smiled and looked at Mr. Su and said to Mrs. Su: "Mrs. Su doesn't have to be polite, if you need to find out something, just say it."

"Check someone!" Yan Qing said that she had written Mr. Wu's address, and she folded the white paper in half and handed it to Luo Yitou and said, "Luo Yitou only needs to find out his origin and his recent whereabouts."

Although Luo Yitou had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask much, since Mrs. Su asked him to check the origin of this person, there must be a reason, he put the paper away and said with a smile: "Please Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, don't worry!" This matter will be handed over to Luo, and within a day, not to mention his origin and whereabouts, even his eight generations of ancestors will be found out."

"Then there's Lauro's head!" Yan Qing smiled and looked at her husband.

Su Jin understood what his mother meant, took out some broken silver from his sleeve pocket, and sent Luo Yitou and others out of the gallery and said: "It's hard work Luo Yitou and a few big brothers, forgive Su for not being able to get away and invite you to drink tea, these are a little bit of Su Mou's heart, Su Mou will invite you again another day"

How dare Luo Yitou take Mr. Su's silver taels, if this is known to the son, he will have to count him, he smiled and pushed back the silver taels: "Mr. Su is too polite!" In recent days, if the son hadn't been busy with the case, how could he have come to Luo to serve"

Su Jin said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of Luo Yitou's jokes, in Su's heart, he has long regarded Luo Yitou as the eldest brother, and these silver taels are not a tribute, so he should be the younger brother to invite Brother Luo to tea."

"That's good!" As soon as Luo Yan heard that Mr. Su actually exalted him like this, how could he have brushed off Mr. Su's kindness again, and it was definitely a great pleasure to be able to call Mr. Su a brother. He took the money and asked Brother Su Xian to rest assured: "You explain my affairs, when the eldest brother must find out as soon as possible, if that Mr. Wu dares to have the slightest evil intentions towards Hongyantang, the eldest brother will not be the first to spare him."

"Thank you so much, Brother Luo!" Su Jin said gratefully.

After sending Luo Yantou away, the gallery was able to regain its calm for the time being, and Su Jin was inconvenient to think too much, so he had to wait for Brother Luo's news first, and then think about it in the long run.

Luo Yantou was really happy to do things, and he swore in the morning that he would find out Mr. Wu's origin and recent whereabouts within one day, and brought news in the afternoon.

He happily walked into the gallery and told Mr. and Mrs. Su: "I found it, but it's just a mouse sparrow."

"Rats? What do you mean by that? Although Su Jin learned from his mother's words that Mr. Wu was actually a pseudo-rich man, he was not humble to the point of being a rat.

"Mr. Su doesn't know, Mr. Wu is just a family member of Xiangfu, and his whereabouts recently are very simple, every day between his home and Xiangfu, and he suddenly became obsessed with calligraphy and painting two months ago.

"Is that so?" Yan Qing said with doubts.

Seeing that Mrs. Su seemed to be puzzled, Luo Yitou suddenly thought of something and said: "By the way, Mr. Wu bought calligraphy and paintings in Hongyan Hall, so his wife is very suspicious..."

"That's right! I think so too! Yan Qing said with a smile.

Aunt Li came out of the back hall with tea, and when she heard the conversation between Luo Yitou and Mr. Su Xiaoqing, she hurriedly came over and urged: "Then in this case, Luo Yantou hurriedly went to find out, in case she did anything unlucky."

"Hmmm! That's what the aunt said! Luo Yan said without further ado: "That Cheng, when I find out, I will definitely return Hongyantang to an innocence."

Luo Yitou said, without waiting for Mr. Su and Mrs. Su to say anything, he hurriedly walked out of the gallery with two subordinates.

The matter has become clear.

Su Jin and Yan Qing can also rest assured, and now they have to wait for news from Luo Yantou.

The alley was narrow and long, sandwiched between whitewashed walls and tiles, not large enough to fit a horse-drawn carriage aisle.

During the temptation in the art gallery, Yan Qing had already guessed that Mr. Wu was a pseudo-rich man, but she didn't understand what Mr. Wu wanted to do through this alley. What's more, he still has the calligraphy and painting he bought from Hongyantang in his hand, since she came with her, she must find out to rest assured.

Back to the gallery.

The children were standing in a row in front of the door, anxiously looking forward to the back of the teacher's wife on the street, Aunt Li came out of the hall and persuaded them not to move, so she had to let Mr. Su call them into the house.
