Chapter 199: The Narrow Road (I)
The mansion of the Jin Bancheng family is not as big as the Xun Mansion, probably because his wife died early, and he has not continued the string, so he lives too big, but is lonely.
As soon as you walk through the middle courtyard, you will arrive at the living room.
He first asked Xinghua to pick up himself, and then instructed the cook to fry two dishes for her, while he sat alone in the living room drinking tea.
"Hasn't the inner loser come back yet?"
The housekeeper Wu Da heard the old man's question, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I went to Chunhualou yesterday to ask, and he came back tonight, but he was just ......."
"Hmph, the money is gone." Jin Bancheng slammed the teacup on the table and looked at the courtyard indignantly.
The housekeeper stopped talking, and waited for Jin Bancheng's mood to ease down a little before he said in a loud voice: "Master, young master...... Young Master......"
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Young master, he wants to bring home the top card of the Chunhualou and marry her as a second room."
"What!" The teacup that Jin Bancheng had just dropped was picked up by him again, and this time he threw it directly on Lin, and it was shattered.
When the housekeeper saw him making such a big fuss, he hurriedly played a round to let him dissipate his anger.
"What kind of sin did I Jin someone do in my last life, and gave birth to such a thing!" Jin Bancheng's tears flowed down, and Wu Da hurriedly helped him to sit down.
"Come and blame me, his mother died early, and I was busy doing business, so he was so rebellious, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!"
After Xinghua washed up, she looked in the mirror and looked at her own shadow reflected in it, and sighed for a while.
She was originally thin skin and tender meat, but after this period of wind and rain, she seemed to be dozens of years old.
Sighing softly, after putting on clean clothes, she walked out of the boudoir slowly, ready to tell Xunfu Rao's granddaughter what happened before and after.
Before he could reach the living room, he heard Jin Bancheng sighing there, and his tone was a little whimpering, probably crying.
When he was hesitating to go in, a child behind him tapped Xinghua's shoulder.
"What about eavesdropping?"
It turned out to be a baby, and when she sent her sister out of the house last time, she saw this child.
The baby is the son of the housekeeper Wu Da, because he is usually busy taking care of the master's shops, so he neglects to take care of the baby.
Every time Xinghua saw him, he was covered in dirt.
They are all seven or eight years old, and they still have a pestle on their heads; On the dirty face, there is still a child's unique immaturity.
Two big watery eyes, I don't know, I thought it was a girl.
"Eh, you scared me to death." Xinghua deliberately pretended to be frightened, and patted her chest with her hand.
The baby was really deceived by her, and quickly apologized, seeing that Xinghua ignored him, he was so anxious that he even had a little red eye circles.
Xinghua "poofed" for a while, lowered her head and looked at him, a little mischievous: "Teasing you, why do you really believe it?" ”
"Sister Xinghua likes to tease people", the baby pouted and twisted her head again.
But the child is always a child, and the change of face is faster than the change, and after less than a minute, as if nothing happened, he hurriedly asked how the apricot blossom became so dark.
Apricot blossoms are so dark because they are more exposed to the sun during this time. After hearing Jin Bancheng's words again, he curiously asked what happened to the baby master.
"My dad, Brother Wenbang likes a prostitute and wants to bring it home, it must be this thing that makes the master angry."
When Xinghua saw the golden list, she thought she was a good person, and she was still half happy for her sister at that time.
Now that I learned that he was this kind of person, I was embarrassed for a while.
"Apricot blossoms? Come on, the dishes are done. ”
Hearing Xinghua and the baby playing outside, the old man wiped his tears and called Xinghua in.
Seeing the roast chicken and stewed meat on the table, Xinghua was gluttonous and swallowed saliva.
"Eat, eat, it's all for you, this kid has suffered a lot on the road."
Xinghua's eyelids drooped, pursed her lips, and shook her head gently: "Master, I came here to find my sister, and it's not too late to eat when I see her." ”
"Let's eat first, your sister is not allowed to come back."
"What? Where did my sister go? ”
Jin Bancheng explained: "I went back to my parents' house, and I didn't answer her when I asked, I thought I was bullied by my rebel." Originally, I was going to go to the government to drink, but for this reason, I waited at home for the stinky man to come back and clean him up. ”
"Sister really has nothing?"
"I saw that my daughter-in-law's eyes were red, she should have cried, maybe she also knew that something was going on at home, and she didn't come out because she was afraid that I was worried."
The two of them were chatting, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Jin Bancheng raised his head and smiled at Xinghua:
"Come, let me introduce you, this is my nephew, Wang Wu."
Xinghua looked up, and when she saw him, she was half stunned. Secretly sighed that it was really a narrow road, how did she know that this bad species was actually related to the Jin Bancheng family.
Wang Wu was still smiling, but he was also stunned when he saw the apricot blossoms. After hesitating for a few seconds, his smiling face resurfaced and asked Jin Bancheng to introduce him.
It's not so easy to be a thief, not only must you be bold and careful, but you must also be able to understand the Tao at critical moments, and occasionally pretend to be stupid.
Jin Bancheng, the uncle moxibustion, is also busy on weekdays, so he basically doesn't go to relatives much.
He didn't know anything about Wang Wu's person, looking at the person Wang Wu was wearing, talking like a dog, he really thought it was his own, a talent who fell off the list.
"Let me introduce, this is Xinghua, my maid. Eh, Xinghua, since Xunfu has declined, and my nephew has never been married, it is better to ......"
"Impossible!" Xinghua's eyes were red at this time, and she glared at this well-dressed beast viciously, biting the roots of her teeth.
Heart, if you hadn't robbed me of my money with your brother, I wouldn't have ended up so badly.
Jin Bancheng asked puzzledly: "Are you two old acquaintances?" ”
"Yes."
"It's not ......", Wang Wu picked his nose a little unnaturally after finishing.
Jin Bancheng saw that he must be lying, so he asked him seriously what was going on.
"My uncle, yes, I lied, but I think it was all a misunderstanding."
"Did you and your brother misunderstand when you snatched my package?"
"Grab the bag?" When Jin Bancheng heard this, he turned his head to look at his nephew and asked, "You honestly explain to your uncle, is it true that Xinghua is it?" ”
Wang Wu made a bitter face, pretending to be innocent and said: "Yes, yes, but, but it was all my brother who instigated me!" ”
"How do you explain what happened next?" When Xinghua said this, tears had already fallen down her eyes, and her face was white and red for a while.
Wang Wu, who rolled his eyes, immediately had an idea and explained:
"Hua'er, you have to believe me, he also brought up that matter later. Or...... How else would he have died at the hands of the goblin? ”
