Chapter 114: The aftermath lingers
The unnamed cemetery in the back mountain was overgrown with weeds, and Chu Yigong sat in a wheelchair and personally instructed his son, daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter and nephew to clear the weeds and add new soil. The gloomy situation here was revealed as the ancient locust tree was dug up and cut down, and the evil qi was quickly vented, making the surrounding people feel inexplicably relaxed.
These are all done by Wang Mengxiong according to the requirements of the girl surnamed Hu to instruct Chu Yigong, Master Chu is ashamed that this girl died innocently due to his ancestors, and he was tortured, and he was grateful that although she couldn't help herself, she had always kept a good heart and did not kill her family, so she accepted Wang Mengxiong's requests one by one, and worshiped sincerely.
With the worship of everyone in the Chu family, the cigarettes curled and the paper ashes flew, Wang Mengxiong saw the girl comb her hair in a trance, put on beautiful new clothes, and waved goodbye under the hand of an equally beautiful woman, and then the two disappeared into the air with the paper ashes blown by the wind. When he rubbed his eyes and looked at it again, he found that there was nothing left, as if it had just been his hallucination. But deep down, he prefers to believe that it is the girl's mother who comes to pick up her daughter in person, whether it is to heaven or hell, as long as the mother and daughter are together, it must be happiness.
When Master Chu said goodbye to Wang Mengxiong, taking advantage of the fact that the people around him were not paying attention, Wang Mengxiong said lightly, "Master Chu, if there is a better candidate, the housekeeper of your mansion can be replaced!" ”
"Certainly, definitely, Steward Hu has been doing it for so many years, I will send him back to the countryside to recuperate, and when the little divine doctor comes to treat the old decay with acupuncture, it is estimated that you will not be able to look at him!"
Chu Yigong understood the meaning of his words, if it weren't for the hard work of Steward Hu for so many years, he would have been sent to the police station to be accompanied by the prison of male and female servants surnamed Qin. After all, he had also heard of the relationship between Steward Hu and the maid, and he didn't care about it before, but now leaving him is leaving a timed **, maybe when he will hurt others and himself.
When parting, Chu Yigong handed Jing Dingcheng a package and asked him to hand it over to the little divine doctor. Jing Dingcheng checked it, it was very heavy and hard, knowing that this was the reward given to Wang Mengxiong by his old friend. Although he purely planned to help, he was curing diseases and saving people, and by the way, he also did the work of exorcism, and it was natural to receive a little payment, so he did not refuse.
Sitting in the car home, Wang Mengxiong took the package that Jing Dingcheng put in his hand, opened it and only took two rolls of Dayang, and pushed it back without touching the rest.
"I will give a copy of these two volumes to the school and a copy to the Gu family class, and I am grateful for their kindness. As for the rest, you help me give it to Brother Jiuguang, after all, the Axe Gang is a start-up, and he has a lot of money there, and this money can solve the urgent need, and it can be regarded as really playing a role. ”
Jing Dingcheng knew that Wang Mengxiong looked down on money, so he smiled and accepted it for Wang Yaqiao. "It's okay, it's all yours anyway, it's just the left hand to the right hand. But Brother Jingyuan's legs, you still have to pay attention and run a few more times. Although he is a businessman, he has a good personal relationship with Lu Yongxiang, the envoy of the Songhu Protector, and he can make him owe you a favor, which is more expensive than gold. ”
"Then you still accept so many people?" Wang Mengxiong was a little puzzled.
"It's different!" Jing Dingcheng said with a smile. "He's a rich family, and that's a drop in the bucket for him. What's more, you also helped him solve the potential hidden dangers and get the house, even if it was just a little reward. But if you come to the door for treatment in the future, it will be a proper favor. After all, we are going to level the family house for him, and treating the sick and saving people is an extra gift, and he will receive this favor! ”
Back in the big world, Wang Mengxiong handed over the scroll of the ocean to Gu Chuanbiao, asking him to bother to find a good restaurant, and planned to invite all the people in the Gu family class to have a big meal. Regardless of whether he is really missing or not, this friendship must be returned. Jing Dingcheng is right, sometimes human favor is more precious than gold. Chu Yigong's favor is valuable, and his favor is the same, maybe even better.
It's just that after the performance that night, Huang Chujiu, who is the big boss of the big world, did not let Gu Chuanbiao spend money to entertain guests, but boldly invited everyone to the garden restaurant outside the building, which can be regarded as celebrating Wang Mengxiong's immortality.
The downstairs of the garden outside the building was originally a new stage opened by Huang Chujiu and the comprador Jingrun Sanhe, and the business was once very hot. Later, New World and Great World opened one after another, and the business here was greatly affected, and even the garden with the roof of the building outside the building was changed to the original use for entertainment and sightseeing, and was transformed into a private club by Huang Chujiu, specially used for banquets to friends in the circle. This time, he heard that Wang Fan of the Gu family class had saved Chu Yigong's family, and he vaguely heard that Chu Yigong and Lu Yongxiang, the escort envoy, had a very personal relationship, so he made every effort to invite everyone here for dinner.
The rest of the Gu family class had never come to such an upscale place to dine, and they were all excited. When I took the elevator from the first floor, I looked east and west, and it was completely a standard look like an old hat entering the city. However, this kind of iron fence sliding door elevator is very backward for Wang Mengxiong, who is accustomed to seeing various high-end elevators in later generations. However, going up to the sixth floor, there is still some novelty. The rooftop of the original five-storey building was covered with a huge glass canopy. There are several small and delicate pavilions dotted around, as well as some exotic flowers and bonsai of mountain rocks, creating the effect of a hanging garden. In the middle is a fountain fish pond where water gushes out and flows into the pool, where some goldfish are stocked and swim freely.
Gu Chuanqi took Wang Mengxiong's hand, ran around looking at the novelty, and kept exclaiming. However, in Wang Mengxiong's opinion, this thing can no longer be fake, it is to deceive the ordinary people living in these metropolises, and the novelty is not attractive. From the original playground full of tourists to a private club, you can see the rise and fall of the period. What's more, he was born in the natural sect and advocates the way of nature. If this is really the scenery of green mountains and buildings outside the mountains, maybe he can still have some interest, and the simple artificial scenery is meaningless to him.
However, the chef invited by Huang Chujiu is still very capable, and the dishes in Shanghai are made by him extremely exquisitely, and the taste is also very unique, which makes people appetite. It's just that most of the people in the Gu family class are from a bitter background, and when they start eating, it is like a whirlwind, although this kind of side dish is exquisite, but the portion is too small, so that everyone eats up many plates, and starts to look at the kitchen again, waiting for the food to be served.
Gu Chuanbiao looked at Boss Huang who was entertaining abruptly, rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "Boss Huang, the brothers have never seen much of the world, they are all big-bellied men, and they don't look good, which makes you laugh." ”
Huang Chujiu is worthy of being a businessman, and his ability to grasp the scene is very strong, and he waved his hand to the waiter behind him: "Inform the kitchen, don't use these small plates to serve, all of them are replaced with large pots, don't ask for exquisiteness, only require enough portions, go quickly!" ”
"Got it, sir, here it goes!"
Soon a large pot of food came up, and everyone started together, and they were quite satisfied. Wang Mengxiong has increased his meal a lot because of his martial arts. However, Gu Chuanqi, as a girl, eats no less than him, which is a bit ugly. Fortunately, everyone is not an outsider, and they were a little restrained at first, but seeing that Boss Huang was so easy to speak, he naturally let go, and the guests and hosts dispersed happily.
