CHAPTER XXIV
Zhou Yi's second uncle's house is also in Dongcheng, located in the Lotus Community.
This Lotus Community is a relatively good community, and one of the houses that his mother picked for him before was in the Lotus Community.
In the north of December, the time has just reached five o'clock, and the sky is getting dark.
According to the promise, Zhou Yi went to the Lotus Community to pick up his parents.
When I came to the vicinity of the Lotus Community, I saw my parents and a middle-aged man talking at the gate of the community from a long distance.
There was talk and laughter, and the two sides seemed to have a good chat.
Zhou Yi didn't have the hobby of eavesdropping on other people's conversations, and waited until his parents finished talking to the middle-aged man before the other party left and drove the car over.
When his parents got into the car, Zhou Yi glanced at the Lotus Community and asked curiously.
"Mom, who was that person just now, I had a lot of fun chatting with you."
Mom and Dad sat in the back row together, and when they heard what he said, they raised their feet and kicked the seats.
"How do you speak, you kid? That's your second uncle. ”
"Forehead ......"
Zhou Yi touched his nose and was a little speechless.
My second uncle? This one seems... I'm not really impressed.
When was the last time I and my second uncle met? Five or three?
Forget it, it's been too long to forget.
"Ahem! Mom, you don't blame me, did you say that my second uncle came to our house as long as I can remember?
Besides, it's your fault for this, you didn't take me to see it during the New Year's holiday, how do I know that the other party is my second uncle. ”
This time, my mother didn't answer, but sighed, recalling her relationship with her three brothers over the years.
They are brothers and sisters, and they also loved themselves the most at the beginning, but now everything can't go back.
Dad understood Mom's intentions, reached out and held the other party's hand, and didn't say anything.
Zhou Yi, who saw all this through the rearview mirror, closed his mouth and acted quietly as a driver.
After driving for a while, Zhou Yi couldn't help it after his mother recovered, and asked curiously.
"Mom, can you tell me how my dad caught you back then? Curious. ”
When my father heard what he said, his face straightened, and the principal was possessed in an instant.
"Don't ask about adults, children."
My mother fell into the reminiscence again, and smiled for a while.
"When your father chased me, he didn't have the twists and turns and sweet words of your young people now......
He said a word, a promise, and then I was with your dad. ”
Zhou Yi is even more curious, is Dad still a master of picking girls? In a word, a promise can get my mother.
"What?"
"Ahem! Adults and children don't care! ”
Mom gave Dad's white look.
"What? What I said at the beginning, why don't you dare to admit it in front of my children now? ”
As he spoke, he looked at Zhou Yi again and said with a smile.
"I met you in college."
Zhou Yi exclaimed without waiting for his mother to finish speaking.
"Mom! Did you still go to college? ”
It's no wonder that he was so surprised, but his mother had never told him about his education for so many years, and his mother, like the aunts and aunts around him, had developed the image of a rural woman in his heart.
In fact, my mother is indeed a rural woman, but who stipulates that rural women can't be college students?
"How can you talk like a kid, who said your mom and I didn't go to college? I'll tell you that I'm just like your father, but I'm a top student who graduated from Tuodu University. ”
Zhou Yi feels that his three views are gradually being subverted, and his mother is a top student at Qidu University? How did this come to be like this?
Look at my father, who also graduated from Dudu University, and became the principal of an elementary school 20 years ago.
Ahem! Although I haven't been promoted because I don't know how to be a person, I haven't been down, have I?
"It's not Mom, are you a fake as a top student at Capital University? How did you get mixed up so badly? Could it be that I was expelled from school for falling in love? ”
Mom raised her foot and kicked Zhou Yi's seat again.
"I'm like this? I'm not doing this for you now, but what's wrong with me doing this? Are you disgusted? I have a daughter-in-law and forget my mother. ”
Zhou Yi felt that he was going to suffer if he continued to talk, so he hurriedly changed the topic.
"Mom, you haven't said what kind of ecstasy my dad poured on you back then......
Sensing his father's sharp gaze, Zhou Yi quickly changed his tone.
"No, what did my dad tell you back then?"
Mom fell into reminiscence again, and slowly told their love story back then.
"I met your dad in college, and your dad was a good student, talented, and handsome...... In the words of you young people, your father at that time was the school grass of our Tudu University.
It's not just me, there are more girls who like your dad.
Later, I deliberately came to meet your dad a few times, and then I met your dad.
Usually we discuss the problem of learning, and this comes and goes.
Later, when your dad found out who I was, I asked if he would like to be with me. He only said one word. ”
Mom paused and looked at Dad.
Zhou Yi also turned his head to look at his father and asked.
"Dad, what did you say? Let's talk about it. ”
It's rare that Dad didn't Xun Zhouyi, and his face also showed a look of reminiscence.
"With me, I may not be able to give you a lot of wealth, but I won't let you suffer, I will let you do what you like, and I will make you happy........."
Mom answered with a happy smile on her face.
"It was only after listening to your father's promise that I would make up my mind to be with your father despite the opposition of my family.
You'll know after that, and I've been taking care of you little bastard since I had you. ”
"Forehead ......"
After listening to the love story of his father and mother, Zhou Yi didn't know what to say for a while.
No wonder my mother doesn't do anything, my father doesn't say anything, no wonder after so many years, even my father, who was trained by my mother to be like a grandson, didn't reply a word.
Dad really keeps his promise, he has never made his mother suffer over the years, and he has never quarreled with his mother once. I didn't let my mother do anything that my mother didn't want to do.
In addition, according to my mother, it seems that my mother became a rural woman because she took care of herself?
Get! It's my own reason.
For some reason, Zhou Yi inexplicably thought of Xinhan, and thought of the baby kiss that his mother and Xinhan's mother had ordered when they were both born.
"Mom, are you worried that your son and I won't have a daughter-in-law when I grow up, so I ordered a baby kiss with Uncle Xin."
The atmosphere in the car fell into an eerie silence for a while.
Zhou Yi's heart suddenly sudden, could he really guess it?
Because it was already late to go home, Zhou Yi did not go back to Zixuan Pavilion again, but stayed at home.
I didn't say anything all night, and after breakfast the next morning, I gave my mother the key to the Xinyayuan house and went back to the ancient town.
When I came to the ancient town, parked the car, and pushed the door to enter Zixuan Pavilion, I found that there was an invitation at the door.
Zhouyi is no stranger to this invitation, it is an invitation from the antique store of Wanjie opposite.
As I said before, the Wanjie Antique Store is just a pretense, and its essence is to trade through the Wanjie Building.
Wanjie Building will hold a Wanjie auction on December 31 every year, and this invitation is the Wanjie auction.
Zhou Yi had received an invitation two years ago, but he hadn't gone to participate for various reasons, and he didn't plan to go this time.
is different from his father, who can't be a man, Zhou Yi picked up this invitation even if he didn't go to participate.
Back at Zixuan Pavilion, he casually threw it on the table, opened his notebook and prepared to see what he was going to do next.
He also sat down on his front foot, and Yang Xuan walked in on his back foot.
"I'm back."
Closing the notebook he had just opened again, he nodded.
"I'm back."
Yang Xuan came to the table and took out a bag of documents from the back.
"This is the contract, keep it!"
When Yang Xuan put the documents, he saw the 10,000 auction invitations that Zhou Yi left on the table at will, pursed his lips, and said sourly.
"Invitations? This aspect of the project is really well done. ”
Zhou Yi knew that the No. 8 pawnshop was in competition with the Wanjie Building opposite, so he didn't care about Yang Xuan's sour tone, and shrugged his shoulders and asked.
"Tell me, what's there other than sending me a contract?"
Yang Xuan didn't answer immediately, but reached out and picked up the invitation to the Ten Thousand Realms Auction on the table, came to a chair on the side and sat down, before answering.
"It's not the auction that happened this year."
The auction of the worlds held by the Wanjie Building?
Zhou Yi couldn't help frowning, although the No. 8 pawnshop was in competition with Wanjie Lou, but every year the invitation to the Wanjie auction would also send Yang Xuan such a one, but Yang Fan had never been to it like Zhou Yi.
What does that mean now? Could it be that in addition to taking action against the main god space, the No. 8 pawnshop also has to start a war with the Ten Thousand Worlds Tower?
To be honest, Zhou Yi is really not very optimistic about the No. 8 pawnshop.
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Not for you! ”
Zhou Yi was even more puzzled, what is it for himself? This is as if he has a leg with Yang Xuan.
"What the hell do you mean? Could it be that your No. 8 pawnshop is going to war with the Ten Thousand Worlds Tower? ”
Yang Xuan heard this, and the black line in his head was launched, and the Wanjie Building? He wanted to, but the group of people above didn't dare at all.
"Don't talk nonsense! Although our No. 8 pawnshop and Wanjielou are in competition, they are healthy competition, how can there be a war? ”
Zhou Yi was speechless for a while, with his understanding of Yang Xuan, he knew that the other party was definitely speaking with a clear conscience now.
"What the hell is going on? Don't sell it to me. ”
Yang Xuan shrugged his shoulders and stopped selling Guanzi.
"Well, didn't you promise to help you find the whereabouts of the Voidheart? Now I found it, this time the Ten Thousand Worlds auction held by the Ten Thousand Worlds Building has the appearance of the Void Heart, if you want to get this thing, you must go to this auction this year. ”
"There will be a Void Heart in the auction of all worlds, how did you know that?"
"Through the eighth ......, of course"
Yang Xuan blurted out subconsciously, and hurriedly stopped halfway through speaking.
"You don't care how I know, you just need to understand that there will be a Void Heart in this auction of all worlds. Void Heart, do you want to go this time? ”
After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Yi to answer, he continued.
"Whether you go or not, I'm going to this auction anyway."
"Oh?"
Zhou Yi became interested, with the relationship between the No. 8 pawnshop and the Wanjie Building, Yang Xuan actually wanted to go to the Wanjie auction? Problematic!
"You're going too, is there anything you're interested in in this auction besides the Void Heart?"
Yang Xuan replied ambiguously.
"Perhaps."
Yang Xuan was inconvenient to say more, so Zhou Yi naturally didn't ask again, thought about it and nodded.
"Since the Void Heart will appear this time, then I'll go and see it.
It's a shame to say that after being a neighbor for three years, I've never met each other. ”
Yang Xuan pursed his lips disdainfully when he heard this.
"The people of Wanjielou are different from our No. 8 pawnshop, they are all proud, not to mention you, even I have only met the owner of Wanjielou once."
After chatting for a while about the Wanjie Tower and this auction, Zhou Yi thought of Hongjun who was still in the Tianyuan Great World and asked.
"By the way, I forgot to ask you how the situation is in the Tianyuan Great World?"
Speaking of this, Yang Xuan also slapped his forehead.
"If you don't say it, I almost forgot, Hongjun seems to be in trouble in the Tianyuan Great World, and he hasn't started to extract the three thousand laws of that world yet."
Hongjun is in trouble?
Hearing this, Zhou Yi frowned, it has been almost a month since Hongjun left, and he has not yet started to go out to extract the law, and it is estimated that it will take the year of the monkey to wait for the other party to finish extracting the law of three thousand.
"Trouble, what trouble? Can it be solved? ”
"I don't know what the trouble is, in short, this trouble is not small, otherwise with Hongjun's strength, it would not be possible to make no progress for a month."
"Is that so? That's a real problem......"
Zhou Yi fell into deep thought, originally thinking that after reaching the Tianyuan Great World with Hongjun's strength, he should be able to capture it with his hands, and he would be able to extract the three thousand rules in a short period of time.
But looking at the situation now, it is estimated that a year and a half is impossible.
It seems that nothing can be hanged from a tree.
"Do you dream of contacting Dao Ancestor? I want to ask him about the situation in the Tian Yuan Great World. ”
Yang Xuan had long known that Zhou Yi would ask like this, so he nodded without the slightest surprise.
"He has an invitation to pawnshop number eight, and I can bring him to pawnshop number eight, but only in pawnshop number one."
"Okay, let's go to your side now."
After saying that, Zhou Yi got up and pulled Yang Xuan outside.
Yang Xuan was dragged up by Zhou Yi and said helplessly.
"I said... Let's go, can we stop pulling and pulling? It is easy to cause misunderstanding when people see it. ”
When Zhou Yi heard this, he instantly let go of the hand that was holding Yang Xuan, picked up the tissue on the table next to him and wiped his hands with disgust.
"You're saying this as if I want to take advantage of you."
Yang Xuan shrugged.
"Who knows?"
