Chapter 160: The Outer Room
"Shopkeeper Yin, can you know Wei Changmao?"
Tong Shuangxi asked.
Shopkeeper Yin didn't think about it: "Is it Wei Changmao, the patriarch of the Wei family?" ”
Before cooperating with Tong Shuangxi, Shopkeeper Yin inquired about Tong Shuangxi's origins, and even he inquired about the fact that she was once the concubine of the eldest young master of the Wei family, so when he heard Tong Shuangxi ask like this, Shopkeeper Yin first guessed it.
Tong Shuangxi nodded, and then asked, "Shopkeeper Yin, can you know what kind of person this person is?" What are the things that are talked about on weekdays? ”
Fuguichun dim sum shop has been in the town for so many years, and the shopkeeper Yin has also been the shopkeeper for thirty years, so he should know something about the Wei family.
"I don't dare to say, but this person is proficient in general affairs, and he is also sleek and sophisticated, when the Wei family has not yet entered Beijing, this person will go to our rich spring dim sum shop every day, and what he wants is the most precious dim sum in our shop, and then after the Wei family moved to the capital, Wei Changmao became the patriarch of the Wei family.
After that, the Wei clan was cleaned up drastically, and as a result, several Wei families in the side branch sold their houses and moved their land, and some people said in private that Wei Changmao had overshadowed the property of those families, and then drove people out of the Wei family.
"Later, Mrs. Wei took the two young masters back to the town, and Wei Changmao restrained a lot, and kept wandering between the clan and the two young masters of the Wei family, and slowly this patriarch also made a little reputation."
The shopkeeper Yin didn't tell Tong Shuangxi about it, but told Tong Shuangxi everything he knew.
Tong Shuangxi was grateful, Shopkeeper Yin regarded himself as his own person, so he treated each other so sincerely.
Seeing that Tong Shuangxi thanked him, the shopkeeper Yin waved his hand and said: "Although I shouldn't ask, I still have to say something, that Wei Changmao is a villain and a gentleman, and he can't provoke as much as possible." ”
Shopkeeper Yin sincerely persuaded and said, as the so-called harmony makes money, in the business field, people like Wei Changmao generally can't have deep contact.
Tong Shuangxi understood the kindness of the shopkeeper Yin, but she didn't say much about it, so she only got up and thanked her, and was ready to leave.
"By the way, there's one more thing that comes to mind."
Shopkeeper Yin hesitated and didn't say anything, but looking at Tong Shuangxi, who was about to leave, he thought about it for a while, and it was better to say it.
"Wei Changmao doesn't have any hobbies on weekdays, he likes to visit the Yaqu Pavilion, there is a girl in this Yaqu Pavilion, Wei Changmao ransomed her at the beginning of the year, and bought a small house for this girl on the westernmost street, it is said that Wei Changmao loves this outer room very much."
Shopkeeper Yin said this a little uncomfortably.
Tong Shuangxi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly thanked the shopkeeper Yin, and this trip was finally not in vain.
Tong Shuangxi bought a few dim sum from Fuguichun's dim sum shop and went to Wei Bowang.
Wei Bowang was drying clothes in the yard, and when he saw Tong Shuangxi coming, he asked her to wait for him in the house.
Tong Shuangxi, in the spirit of currying favor with the owner, wanted to snatch the clothes to help dry them, but looking at the pair of eyes in the courtyard looking straight at him, Tong Shuangxi hurriedly took three steps and did two steps to escape into Wei Bowang's house.
How much peach blossom debt has Wei Bowang provoked, Tong Shuangxi felt that his back was about to be seen.
"I guess you're coming over in a few days, what's going on, what's going on?" As soon as Wei Bowang entered the room, he closed the door first, and then asked.
Tong Shuangxi didn't talk nonsense, so he told Wei Bowang everything that Shopkeeper Yin said.
Wei Bowang listened to Tong Shuangxi's words, thought about it and asked him, "Do you think the person who harmed me is Wei Changmao?" ”
Tong Shuangxi nodded and shook his head: "I'm not sure, but I feel that Wei Changmao must have a problem, I have seen Wei Changmao's wife and three daughters, none of them are the rich and noble style, Wei Changmao can take out so much silver to raise the outer room at once, I can't help but say that it doesn't make sense." ”
Tong Shuangxi expressed his opinion.
Wei Bowang nodded, Wei Changmao is also familiar with him, he will find himself to discuss during the New Year's Festival or anything in the clan, as for his character, Wei Bowang has never paid attention to it, but he has also heard that Wei Changmao, the patriarch, is poor in his family...... Tong Shuangxi's words make sense.
"So what are we going to do next?" Wei Bowang is the least good at dealing with these things in the house, in the past, the affairs of the Wei family were handed over to the Wei Fang clan to take care of, and he has never been so careful.
"Let's start with Wei Changmao's outer room first!" Tong Shuangxi already had an idea in his heart.
Wei Bowang looked at Tong Shuangxi suspiciously.
Tong Shuangxi pointed to a few pastries on the table, and then said, "Let's go and send snacks to the little lady of the Wei patriarch!" ”
……
The red lady has been about to suffocate to death for the past half a year, and she knew that she was going to live such a life now, how could she not be coaxed by Wei Changmao to do this outer room.
Wei Changmao is also generous to himself on weekdays, but he doesn't go here on weekdays, and he can't go there, so he just stays in this small courtyard and doesn't go out.
The red lady used to live a bright life, but this sudden good family style made her go crazy......
On this day, she had lunch and just wanted to go out for a walk, but was stopped by the fierce mother-in-law in front of the door.
"Bold, you dare to stop our red lady!"
Xiaocui is the maid brought out by the red lady from Yaqu Pavilion, and her feelings are different.
"Miss Xiaocui, don't scare me, Master Wei said, it's best not to go out today, so as to save yourself from bumping into people who shouldn't be bumping!" The mother-in-law said mercilessly.
The red lady gritted her teeth, what person shouldn't be rushed, isn't it the tigress in Wei Changmao's house!
Just as the red lady was about to go back to the house in a huff, she heard a little girl's voice outside the door: "This is the red lady's yard?" ”
As soon as the red lady heard this, she wanted to respond, but the woman directly covered her mouth.
"What a red lady, a green lady, you are looking for the wrong person!" The mother-in-law looks fierce, and it was not easy to get this errand, but she can't just throw it away, so she is conscientious in doing things.
"We are the young men of Fuguichun's dim sum shop, according to the instructions of Wei Changmao Wei, come over to bring snacks to the red lady!" Tong Shuangxi said unhurriedly.
When the woman heard this, she let go of the hand holding the red lady, thinking in her heart that this red lady really likes to eat the dim sum of the Fuguichun dim sum shop, and she let go of her suspicions.
"Just give me a snack!" The mother-in-law was still not at ease, so she opened the door a crack, and then stretched out her hand and said.
Tong Shuangxi glanced at the back of the door, and said: "Auntie said that it was funny, Master Wei was in a hurry, saying that we should send the dim sum to the red lady, since someone has settled the bill, I don't know if the aunt can pay me the dim sum money first!" ”
