Chapter Twenty-Six: A Green Hat
Seeing the middle-aged man's action, Hu Lai knew that Ling was right, there must be good things in this man's bag.
Seeing the middle-aged man's vigilant eyes, Hu Lai smiled and said, "Uncle, don't be nervous, I just see that you are a little familiar, come, drink a bottle of water first." ”
While talking, Hu Lai handed the middle-aged man a bottle of water.
The middle-aged man looked at Hu Lai and found that Hu Lai had an honest face, so he relaxed his vigilance.
However, he still didn't accept the water handed to him by Hu Lai, thinking that he didn't fully believe Hu Lai.
Seeing that the middle-aged man was so cautious, Hu Lai could only take the initiative.
"What is Uncle afraid of, it's just a bottle of water, can I still poison it?" Hu Lai was still smiling.
As soon as the middle-aged uncle heard Hu Lai's words, he licked his chapped lips.
Then he gritted his teeth, took the water in Hu Lai's hand and unscrewed it directly, and then drank it violently.
After a fierce pour, the middle-aged man's haggard complexion moisturized a lot.
"Thank you, young man." The middle-aged man wiped the water stains on his lips and said, his words full of gratitude.
Hu Lai still smiled and said, "No thanks, maybe we really know that." ”
Saying this, Hu Lai beckoned the middle-aged man to sit down, and at the same time ordered some food.
The middle-aged man became suspicious again and looked at Hu Lai vigilantly.
He couldn't understand why the young man in front of him was so kind to him, with water and food.
"Uncle is not a local, he should be from Qingyun and County." Hu Lai said calmly.
His words were naturally deceiving the middle-aged man, but this address was the moment when the middle-aged man received the water just now, and Hu Lai saw it in the middle-aged man's heart.
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he began to look at Hu confidently and seriously.
"It's really Qingyun and county, and so are you?" The middle-aged man said, his tone full of curiosity.
Hu Lai poured a glass of water for the middle-aged man, and then said, "Of course, otherwise how would I look familiar with you." ”
"And I'm from Niuwa Village in Qingyun County, I see that my uncle is familiar, it should be near Niuwa Village."
This information was naturally obtained by Hu Lai at that moment.
However, there is only this for the understanding of middle-aged men, after all, the time of contact just now is too short, and Hu Lai can only pick and choose the key points to check.
And a person's ancestral address and the names of their spouse and children are often the most important thoughts of a person.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard Hu Lai mention Niuwa Village, the middle-aged man suddenly became excited and grabbed Hu Lai's hand.
"I'm from Niuwa Village, young man, what's your name?" The middle-aged uncle said excitedly.
"My name is Hu Lai, but I shouldn't know my uncle, when my uncle was my age, I was still a child." Hu Lai said with some jokingness.
"yes, yes." The middle-aged man said, "I haven't been home for a long time, and I didn't expect to meet villagers from the same village here. ”
Speaking of which, the middle-aged man had memories and pain on his face.
When the middle-aged man recalled the past, Hu Lai used five seconds of mind-reading time, and through the middle-aged man's kung fu of grasping his hand, he understood the middle-aged man's recent experience and some innermost secrets.
It turned out that the middle-aged man's name was Wu Youfu, and he was originally a very rich villager in Niuwa Village.
But then his wife cheated on him behind his back and got along with a man in the next village.
And what's even more tragic is that Wu Youfu and his wife's only son are not his.
Under such a strong blow, Wu Youfu couldn't accept it all of a sudden, so he fell ill.
When Wu Youfu's illness recovered, he went through the divorce procedures with his wife, and the child who called him his father for a few years was also taken away by his wife.
In addition to being sad, Wu Youfu packed up his things and left Niuwa Village.
Because Wu Youfu felt that he had no face to stay in the village anymore.
When he arrived in Shangcheng, Wu Youfu met his current wife.
But unfortunately, now this wife is seriously ill and urgently needs money for treatment.
So Wu Youfu continued to help her with his own treatment, although he was not cured in the end, but the woman was moved by Wu Youfu and finally married him.
But the good times didn't last long, a few days ago, his wife's health had problems again, and the hospital found out that her condition had deteriorated.
If you want to be cured, you need a lot of money, which is the bad news of the end times for Wu Youfu, who was originally restrained in life.
So in desperation, Wu Youfu thought of gambling.
But what he didn't expect was that this gamble was a loss of money, and the gambling sieve just now was his last little savings.
Without money, he didn't have the courage to face his current wife, so he didn't go home for three days.
Knowing this, Hu Lai developed a strong sympathy for Wu Youfu.
Although he doesn't support gambling, people often want to fight hard when they reach a dead end, so Hu Lai chose to forgive Wu Youfu at the moment, and at the same time wondered if he could do something for this middle-aged man.
Although these memories are many, for Hu Lai, they are just momentary events.
So when Hu Lai fully understood the ins and outs of Wu Youfu, Wu Youfu was still silent in his memories.
"Uncle, take the liberty of asking, why did you become so downcast." Hu Lai asked.
Although he knew Wu Youfu's life experience, Hu Lai still pretended not to know and asked.
"It's hard to put into words." Wu Youfu said, his tone full of exclamation.
While the two were talking, the food was served, and Wu Youfu was not polite at the moment, so he picked up the bowl and ate it.
After gobbling up the meal, Wu Youfu thanked him vigorously.
"Uncle, if I'm not mistaken, you must have lost a lot of money there." Hu Lai stopped Wu Youfu, who thanked him, and said.
Wu Youfu's face twitched, and he looked very painful.
"yes, all the money is lost."
Seeing that Wu Youfu admitted it, Hu Lai knew that he could make the next plan.
"I'll find a way to help you win your money back, but you have to promise me one thing." Hu said, with mystery on his face.
Looking at Hu Lai's mysterious expression, Wu Youfu was very puzzled.
He didn't understand what Hu Lai wanted him to promise.
However, thinking that he could win back the lost money, Wu Youfu agreed.
"Then it's decided." Hu Lai stretched out his hand and said.
Wu Youfu and Hu Lai clapped their hands, indicating that it was decided.
"How much did you lose?" Hu Lai asked, although he knew the number.
"Six thousand." Wu Youfu replied honestly.
"Wait a minute." Hu Lai said with a smile, and then walked towards the gambling sieve stall.
Wu Youfu wanted to follow, but was stopped by Hu Lai.
His own secrets, he didn't want anyone to know, even that person couldn't find out.
When he came to the gambling stall, Hu Lai squeezed in directly.
When he saw the way of gambling here, Hu Lai secretly said in his heart, "It seems that the ability I gained from my promotion to the Mind Reading Technique is very helpful now." ”
