Chapter 224: Dialing
In front of the dim window, there stood a thin shadow, dressed in black, like a resurrected corpse, standing there motionless.
Lin Wanrong's hair stood on end, her eyes were wide open, and she was only one step away from screaming. Rao is he boasted of his courage, and in the face of the scene in front of him, he was so frightened that he held his breath.
"What, what kind of person-" Lin Wanrong's voice trembled slightly, her whole body was cold, cold sweat flowed all over, and she hurriedly shouted to cheer for herself.
The black shadow like a dry corpse moved slightly when he heard the voice, and a hoarse voice came: "Are you awake?" ”
It turns out that you can speak, hearing the dry corpse speak, Lin Wanrong's heart relaxed, as long as it is a human being, Lao Tzu has nothing to fear. I couldn't see the man's true face in the darkness, but the voice sounded familiar. Lin Wanrong hesitated for a moment and said, "You, who are you?" ”
The black shadow smiled hoarsely and said, "What, after being away for a few days, don't you even know me?" ”
He walked a few steps before he lived, and the bright moonlight outside the window reflected on his face through the screen, and the first thing that fell into Lin Wanrong's eyes was the empty eye sockets.
"Wei, Uncle Wei?" Lin Wanrong was surprised, almost unable to believe her eyes.
Lao Wei smiled and said, "Finally, you still have some memory, haven't forgotten me." ”
How can this Uncle Wei learn to be haunted and walk silently? Lin Wanrong wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, the last time she was so frightened was when she met Qing Xuan, but that time she was shocked after being frightened. This time, apart from horror or horror, people really can't be compared.
"Uncle Wei, the set you played is really scary, if you change to a cowardly one, you may have fainted by you." Lin Wanrong sighed and said with a smile, Lao Wei is his savior and his first relative here, and he is naturally very cordial when he meets him.
Old man Wei laughed a few times: "Wan Rong, your courage is not so small, right?" I've seen you do things with a lot of guts. ”
"Where, where, I am a timid man. Uncle Wei, where have you been these days, and when have you returned to Jinling? Lin Wanrong got up and asked Uncle Wei to sit down.
The moonlight shone faintly on Lao Wei's face, his wrinkled cheeks were pale and scary, and his empty eyes made people feel frightened, but Lin Wanrong felt very kind.
"I only arrived in Jinling tonight, and I remembered that you were on an errand in the Xiao family, so I thought I would come to see you. Light the lamp, you candleless, and be careful that my countenance frightens you. Old Wei said with a smile.
The old man finally had a little conscience, Lin Wanrong laughed: "It doesn't matter if you light the lamp or not, I will talk to my uncle like this, and I am happy." ”
Old man Wei has lived in the dark all the year round, and he has long been accustomed to the dark, and after listening to Lin Wanrong's words, he was a little moved in his heart, this young man, although he was a little slippery, was very straightforward to others. He sighed and said, "I'm just passing by Jinling this time, and I'm going to leave to see you." ”
Lin Wanrong was taken aback: "Uncle just came back, why is he leaving again?" Uncle, don't worry, I earn some silver now, and there is no problem with peace of mind for your retirement, you don't have to worry about me. ”
Old man Wei laughed, he was very relieved, and grabbed Lin Wanrong and said: "Wanrong, I have no children and no daughters in my life, but I met you in my old age, which can be regarded as fate." ”
Lao Wei has a strange personality, Lin Wanrong has known it since he got along with him, and when he heard what he said, Lin Wanrong also sighed: "Uncle Wei, although I am a thick-skinned person and a little spicy, I take the word "kindness and righteousness" very seriously. You are my savior, treat me like a nephew, if I don't repay you, then is it still a human being? Uncle, don't worry, I have already earned a lot of silver, when the time comes, I will marry a few more wives, have a few more sons, and then pick one for you to be your grandson, follow your surname Wei, do you think it is good? ”
According to Lin Wanrong's thoughts, the old man Wei has the grace to save his life, and it is natural to repay him, he has several wives, and he can have a bunch of sons, and there is nothing to succeed a surname Wei.
Lao Wei has a special identity, has been lonely for many years, and has long been accustomed to seeing all kinds of things in the world, in the early years, he didn't know how much he flattered, but Lin Wanrong was different, and he still treated him so generously without knowing his identity, which really touched him. He pursed his lips a few times, and finally laughed loudly: "Okay, good, Wanrong, I really didn't misunderstand you." has morality, common sense, and strategy, and is really a good seedling. ”
Lin Wanrong couldn't help but smile when she saw him speaking strangely: "Uncle Wei, don't praise me anymore, these are the shortcomings I hate the most." ”
Lao Wei gave a thumbs up and said, "I forgot a little, you are very cheeky, hehe." ”
The old and young laughed heartily, and Lin Wanrong seemed to have returned to the situation when she first came to this world and chatted with Old Man Wei every day. It's just that the world has changed a lot now, and he has gradually changed himself and slowly integrated into the world, how can he not be emotional.
Uncle Wei said: "Wan Rong, I have heard about your affairs in the Xiao family, foiled other people's conspiracy, helped the Xiao family come back to life, and made friends with Xu Wei, very good, you are a hundred times smarter than I imagined." ”
Lin Wanrong said embarrassedly: "Uncle, these are all boasted by others, and I am not so good, at most ten times smarter than you think." ”
Lao Wei listened to him joking with himself, and felt very cordial, and laughed and said: "No matter who is bragging, no matter how smart you are, in short, you have done a good job in the Xiao family, this is known to everyone, and even the master has been paying attention to you for a long time." ”
"Master, what master?" Lin Wanrong said.
Lao Wei glanced at him meaningfully and said, "This master, I told you. ”
Lin Wanrong suddenly realized, isn't he going to be the son of a big family, Lao Tzu is now in the Xiao family, and he is also a big family, what kind of master is that, I am not rare.
Old Man Wei seemed to see through his thoughts, and sighed slightly: "Wanrong, everyone has no way to choose their own fate. You're in the middle of it now, and it's impossible to get out. Do you know why I asked you to come to the Xiao family? ”
"I don't know." Lin Wanrong shook his head honestly.
Lao Wei glanced at him with a smile: "This Xiao family is not an ordinary place, it has extraordinary significance to that master. Have you seen Mrs. Xiao? ”
Nonsense, I'm now a member of the board of directors of the Xiao family, can I not see Mrs. Xiao? But what you said is the opposite, with my status today, it should be Mrs. Xiao who came to see me, hehe.
Seeing Lin Wanrong nodding, Lao Wei continued: "Seeing Mrs. Xiao's current appearance, you should know how beautiful and moving she was when she was young, right?" ”
Why did you get involved with Mrs. Xiao? Could it be that there is some gossip between that master and Mrs. Xiao? Mrs. Xiao looked noble and elegant, could it be that she was also a romantic figure back then? Damn, Lao Wei, you gossip party, isn't this slandering the beautiful image of Mrs. in my heart?
Lao Wei naturally didn't know what he was thinking, and sighed: "When I was in Beijing, Miss Guo was sixteen years old, but she was already like a flower like a jade, and she was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. As soon as the master saw Miss Guo, he was shocked, although he was much older than Miss Guo, he was still nostalgic. ”
Speaking of the past, a look of reminiscence flashed on Lao Wei's face, Lin Wanrong listened to his wife's gossip, and suddenly thought of the eldest lady. Xiao Yuruo, a girl, has also inherited her mother's mantle, and after a few years, will someone arrange her gossip like this?
"This master is a man who does great things, and under the admonition of his advisers, he has to put aside the thoughts in his heart and deal with them with all his might. The situation in Beijing was chaotic that day, and under this delay, Mrs. Guo promised Miss Guo to Xiao Ge's son, who got married on the same day and left the capital the next day. By the time the master learned this information, Miss Guo had already followed her husband and was far away in Jiangnan. ”
Lao Wei said hoarsely: "This master really likes Miss Guo, and when he saw her married, he naturally felt unspeakable, and Miss Guo naturally became a concern in his heart." That's why I said, if you help the Xiao family do good things, it will be of great benefit to you. ”
Khan, I don't have that heart at all, I want any good. Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "So Miss Guo empathized and said goodbye?" That master is quite infatuated. ”
Lao Wei shook his head and said: "It's impossible to say empathy, because at that time, this master and Miss Guo were friends of poetry, and the age difference between the two was huge, and Miss Guo never thought about it." Speaking of which, this master is unrequited in love with Miss Guo, and he wants to wait until the big things are decided, and then come to the door to propose. Where did I think that I missed the opportunity like this? ”
said it halfway, it turned out to be unrequited love, Lin Wanrong thought disdainfully, Lao Tzu also had a crush on Li Jiaxin, hehe.
"This, Uncle Wei, what the hell are you doing? How do you know so much of the insider? Lin Wanrong asked directly.
"If you have the chance, you'll know." Lao Wei smiled: "Right now, as long as you keep one thing in mind, the more you help the Xiao family, the more beneficial it will be to you in the future." ”
I don't need you to say this, Yushuang is my wife now, and I have to help if I don't help.
"Wanrong, how is your relationship with Xu Wei?" Lao Wei asked suddenly.
"Oh, it's not bad." Not only is it good, his little wife is still a big matchmaker made by me.
Uncle Wei nodded and said, "Befriending Xu Wei is also a great help to you." In the future, when I came to the capital, these are all used. Seeing Lin Wanrong nodding, he said again: "Have you remembered what I said?" ”
Lin Wanrong smiled: "Of course I wrote it down, Uncle Wei, I've always done this." ”
Lao Wei said meaningfully: "Okay, very good." Wanrong, you must take a long-term view, and remember that your opponent is not here, but in the capital. ”
Rival? Capital? What do you mean? Lin Wanrong was suspicious, but Lao Wei had already stood up and said with a smile: "I came to see you today, these things have been explained almost completely, the rest is up to you, I will leave." ”
He patted Lin Wanrong on the shoulder, walked out quickly, jumped out of the house in the blink of an eye, jumped onto the high wall, and disappeared into the moonlight.
