Chapter 175: "Yanfu" (A very magical name for the helmsman)

Mrs. Zhao's polite tone surprised Zhao Xiucai, Mrs. Zhao and the fake foreign devils, and Zhao Sichen, who was in charge of serving tea and pouring water on the side, was even more frightened into a cold sweat.

But Tang Ning didn't care, and replied with a faint expression: "It's nothing, it's just luck, I met a few American friends, helped them a little favor, and then made some money." ”

"So you're working in a foreign company now?" The fake foreign devil asked in surprise, but he solved a doubt in his heart, because as far as he knew, working in a foreign bank did earn a lot of money, at least in a poor place like Weizhuang, it was enough to show off his wealth.

But to his surprise, Tang Ning actually shook his head and said, "I just said that we are friends, if I work in a foreign company, then I will become their employees." ”

"So, what did you do for them to give you so much money?" The fake foreign devil asked.

Tang Ning hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's inconvenient to tell you this. Then Zhengse said: "Correct you again, I am friends with them, FRIEND, do you understand?" ”

Tang Ning jumped a sentence of English words coldly, and everyone present was stunned, but fortunately, the fake foreign devil really studied in the foreign school, and he reacted after a little stunned: "FRIEND, ah, understand, understand, friend." ”

Then he proudly explained to the others: "Ah Q, ah no, Mr. Gui said FRIEND is a British word, which means friend." It may be because this English sentence made him approve of Tang Ning's words, so even the title was changed from Ah Q to Mr. Gui.

But Zhao Xiucai heard that something was wrong, so he asked: "Ah Q, didn't you just say that you were friends with Americans?" How can it be said in English? ”

Before Tang Ning could answer, the fake foreign devil rushed to show off and said: "Xiucai, you don't know, this American actually speaks British, but it is slightly different, just like the difference between our Shaoxing dialect and Henan dialect, although they are both Chinese, but they are not exactly the same." ”

After listening to the fake foreign devil's answer, Zhao Xiucai nodded and said to Tang Ning: "It's really impressive, Ah Q, you are really amazing now, you can even speak English." ”

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just luck." Tang Ning replied modestly.

"Then do you plan to stay in Weizhuang or go to the city in the future?" Zhao Xiucai asked.

Tang Ning pondered for a moment, and then replied slowly: "I have to stay in Weizhuang for a while, because my American friend said that there will be a big incident in China recently." ”

"Oh? I don't know what's the big deal? Zhao Xiucai asked curiously.

"They didn't elaborate on this, they just told me to find a safe place to stay for a while, and when the situation stabilizes, everything can go on as usual." Tang Ning pretended to reply mysteriously, but in fact, he was referring to the Xinhai Revolution.

Originally, the Zhao family didn't take what Tang Ning said seriously, but within a few days, Mrs. Zhao suddenly received a long letter from the lord in the city, in which the lord actually condescended to the noble and arranged a "turning parent" with him, after reading it, Mrs. Zhao pondered for a long time, and then summoned his son Zhao Xiucai and his daughter-in-law, and said to them with a serious expression: "Be careful about everything recently, it seems that Ah Q's American friend did not lie to him." ”

Zhao Xiucai asked puzzledly: "Dad, what's going on?" ”

Mrs. Zhao didn't answer, but handed the long letter to his son, and after Zhao Xiucai read it, he exclaimed in shock: "Oh my God! Is it true that the revolutionary party is doing so? ”

Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly and said: "Of course it's true, otherwise why would the dignified old man transfer his family's property to our Weizhuang, otherwise why would he be related to me?" In the past, even if I went into the city to meet him, he didn't bother to see me. ”

"So, what do we do? Why don't we find a place to hide? Mrs. Zhao said with a flustered expression.

Mrs. Zhao waved his hand and said, "Don't panic, since Master Juren and Ah Q's American friends all think that our Weizhuang is safe, then we don't need to move, just guard here." ”

Then he instructed: "Son, you arrange for Si Chen and Bai Yan to go to Hebu at three or four o'clock tomorrow night to pick up the canopy boat of the old man's house, and madam, you go and hide all the gold and silver in our house in case of emergency." ”

The two of them were about to go down, but suddenly Mrs. Zhao stopped them again, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You say, do we want to make friends with this Ah Q." ”

Zhao Xiucai nodded and replied: "Dad, you are right, there are Americans behind this Ah Q, not only are they well-informed, but with this talisman, no one dares to do anything to him easily, so there are only benefits and no disadvantages in befriending him now." ”

"Well, that's what I thought too, but how do I befriend him? I don't think he's short of money right now. Mrs. Zhao said with some sorrow.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhao on the side rolled her eyes, leaned over and whispered: "He is not short of money, he is always short of women, or let's send Mother Wu over to him, didn't he shout that he wanted to sleep with Mother Wu before." In the end, Mrs. Zhao covered her mouth and snickered.

"It's a good idea, but can Mother Wu agree? After all, she would rather die than follow Ah Q before. Mrs. Zhao said with a frown.

Mrs. Zhao waved her hand and said, "Is it this time and that time, at that time, Ah Q was poor and had nothing, so who would follow him?" But now it's completely different, even if Ah Q is not the richest in Quanweizhuang, but it must be the most willing to spend money in Quanweizhuang, so how can Wu's mother not want to follow him to enjoy happiness? Don't worry, it won't take half an hour, and I will definitely be able to persuade Mother Wu. ”

Then he sighed and said, "I'm afraid that now it's someone who doesn't agree." ”

"Why would he disagree? Didn't he like what Mama Wu liked before? Zhao Xiucai asked curiously.

"It's still the same sentence, at this time and that time, Ah Q at that time was too poor, so he didn't dare to find too good, Wu Ma was already a high climb for him, and now people are rich, this man's family, as long as he has money, he will be bold and have a high vision, maybe he will want to find a young one. Didn't you see that even your father wanted to beg for a little one. As she spoke, Mrs. Zhao glared at Mrs. Zhao, and it was obvious that her previous anger had not subsided.

"When have you been still thinking about these old sesame seeds and rotten grains, I haven't asked for it." Mrs. Zhao said angrily.
