Chapter 159: I'm Waiting for You in Spring (1)
Seeing that the old lady was crying and emotional, the two little daughters-in-law were busy comforting her and always staring at him. After thinking about it, Shopkeeper Ye had no choice but to stand aside and wait patiently.
It's not the time to go.
Fortunately, after waiting for a while, two other men who looked about thirty and looked about the same age as the shopkeeper Ye appeared, and they first confirmed that the old lady was safe and normal, and then exchanged opinions with the two little daughters-in-law and whispered.
Only then did he walk up to the shopkeeper Ye and said gratefully: "This big brother, thank you for coming here thousands of miles to deliver the letter." According to what you just said, there is a good chance that that person is the lost eldest brother of my family. Only, where is he now? I hope you can show us the way, or show us the way. If it is verified, there will be a lot of thanks. ”
When the shopkeeper Ye saw that these two people were dressed extraordinarily and spoke clearly, he knew that they were businessmen. Counted, it can be regarded as a peer. And people are also in a hurry to find someone, and it is not rude to do this before.
So he said sincerely, "I'm really sorry, I can't show you the way, because my son is also lost, and I am looking for it everywhere." However, you can go to Qingshan County from here, and he is there. ”
Hearing that the shopkeeper Ye began to talk about her son's whereabouts, the old lady immediately stopped crying and listened carefully, for fear of missing a word.
The two little daughters-in-law looked aggrieved, just because the old woman had just taught them a lesson, saying that they had stopped her from looking for her son and almost delayed the big event.
If you want to say this, you can't blame the two of them, just because the old lady has been very old for the past two years, and sometimes she is even a little delirious.
Last year, for example, a swindler came here, saying that he wanted to take the old woman to find her son, and that he could not let the family know, and that he needed to bring five hundred taels of silver. The old lady did as she was told, but naturally she was deceived.
Although their Jin family is not short of these five hundred taels of silver, they can't always be deceived like this, and silver is a trivial matter, if those liars have any disrespect for the old lady because of this, then it is really what they don't want to see.
Fortunately, now this matter is finally a bit eyebrow-raising, according to what Shopkeeper Ye said, there are eight or nine points that are true. They have received many clues over the years, but none of them are true.
And the shopkeeper Ye said this, but he got it all right, but the surname Jin was a little strange. Their uncle was several years old when he was abducted, but he must remember what his surname was.
"Sister-in-law, do you think it will be fake again this time? To say that although the latter characteristics are correct, but this one, the person said that his surname is Jin, which is not right. ”
The person who was called the sister-in-law by the little daughter-in-law had not yet spoken, and somehow, the old woman heard this. I only heard her say angrily: "Usually I always say that you are stupid, but you just don't believe it." Our family name is Jin, and his pronunciation is inaccurate, Jin and Jin, doesn't this sound the same. ”
When Shopkeeper Ye heard it, he felt that what the old woman said made some sense.
To say that in the county jail that night, he chatted with the middle-aged man only out of curiosity and boredom at first. And his mentality was wrong at the time, and it is not surprising that he heard it wrong.
Seeing that he had found a family member for that man by mistake, Shopkeeper Ye felt gloomy for a moment. Why is it so easy for people to find relatives, but it is so difficult for him to come here.
It's just that he ignored that the middle-aged man was in his forties, and the old woman in front of him looked at least sixty. If we don't meet again, I don't know if I will have a chance in my lifetime.
He was more happy for that person, though.
Who could have known that he just chatted with him for a few words, saying that looking for each other's relatives was just comforting each other, where would he have expected that he would really find a home for each other.
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Ye said: "Qingshan County is easy to find, you just need to go all the way south." By the way, there's one more thing I think I have to tell you. ”
Shopkeeper Ye only cared about being happy for the other party, but he forgot the most important thing. Besides, it's better for him to talk about it now. Although it sounds painful, you must be mentally prepared for it.
If he didn't say anything, when they arrived in Qingshan County and learned the truth, it would be a bolt from the blue.
Shopkeeper Ye didn't intend to avoid the old woman, so the voice was loud enough, which made the second and third children of the Jin family very headache. Obviously, what Shopkeeper Ye is going to say next will definitely not be a good thing, and they don't want their mother to know.
However, it is clear that their mother has heard it.
The old woman's surname is Wang, and she is called Mrs. Wang.
She gave birth to four children in her life, three sons and one daughter. The two sons are the two in front of them, and the daughter has long been married to the capital. As for the one in the county jail in Qingshan County, it was her eldest son who had been lost for more than 30 years.
Sure enough, as soon as the shopkeeper Ye finished speaking, Mrs. Wang immediately said: "Say it, my wife can stand it." So much has passed, what else can't be thought of. ”
"This big brother ......"
"You don't have to worry about him, I can stand up if I say it's going to stand it. It doesn't matter if my son is a beggar or something, I don't dislike it. ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper Ye said: "Your son was abducted by Huazi a few years ago, and it just so happened that Huazi was a gentleman on the beam, specializing in doing some things like chickens and dogs. So, so he also followed...... Do this kind of thing. ”
Seeing that the old lady's two sons looked at him flatteringly, Shopkeeper Ye said more tactfully. Rao is like this, the old lady still looked distressed when she heard it. Her precious son is actually doing such a thing!
I just heard the words behind me and almost fainted.
"He's lucky, he's good-handed. You must know that many of the abducted children were broken by the flower child, and even gouged out their eyes and begged along the street for him to squander. It's just that he was caught stealing from a large family and sentenced to 30 years in prison. According to him, he was imprisoned when he was ten years old, that is, he could be released next year. ”
After speaking, Shopkeeper Ye breathed a sigh of relief. It's obviously good news, but it has to be mixed with this bad news.
Jin Lao Er and Jin Lao San looked at Mrs. Wang very nervously, thinking that she would collapse. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang didn't cry, but just gritted her teeth and said, "Did you catch that flower?" If you get caught, just tell me where he's being held. I'm going to have to do something vicious to get rid of this evil breath in my heart. ”
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Ye said, "Where is it so easy to catch." According to your son, Hanako was in his thirties when he kidnapped him. If you are still in the world, you are afraid that you are already dying. It's even harder to catch such a person. ”
But the old lady Wang did not give up, and said persistently: "Then I told you that the person's characteristics are not?" "Speaking of this, it's almost gnashing of teeth.
Shopkeeper Ye said according to his memory.
"You, hurry home and write down these characteristics, be sure to write them down in detail, and distribute them. Let's just say that our Jin family has a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, no matter who it is, as long as this thief can be caught, then 1,000 taels of silver will belong to him. You, hurry up to the county government to send these materials over, and ask your third uncle to think of a way to release this information. ”
I have to say that Mrs. Wang's IQ and momentum are online, and she is no longer the crazy woman who occasionally goes crazy because she lost her eldest son.
This Hanako made her son end up like this, squatting in prison for thirty years in vain, since this is the case, she also has to find out this person by all means, so that he can also taste the taste of squatting in prison when he is old.
Didn't someone say that the only way to solve worries is to take revenge.
After doing this, I thanked the shopkeeper Ye again, and then I went home with my two daughters-in-law who were already scared.
Mrs. Wang's two daughters-in-law, the second daughter-in-law's surname is Zhang, and the third daughter-in-law's surname is Li, and they are all a little apprehensive at the moment. Originally, because of the loss of the eldest brother they had never met, the old lady had already begun to show signs of confusion, which made the Zhang family very happy.
After all, the old lady has been in charge of the family for most of her life, and it is time to abdicate and make way for Xian. Although her father-in-law is not the boss of the Jin family, as long as the legendary boss does not go home, then she will definitely be in charge of the family in the future.
To say that over the years, the Jin family has made many efforts to find the boss of the Jin family on a large scale, but unfortunately, he seems to have evaporated from the world, and there is no news. Now it's good, a leaf shopkeeper appeared out of thin air, and it also brought good news.
However, for Zhang, where is the good news, this is simply a bolt from the blue. The duck that I wanted was suddenly about to fly away, and no one would be happy.
Compared with Zhang's unhappy face, Mrs. Wang can be said to be very excited, and as soon as she got home, she began to tell her subordinates to pack up their things. I didn't need to ask to know that the old lady was in a hurry to go to Qingshan County to see her son.
However, it would take more than ten days to go from here alone, and neither the Zhang nor the Li family would want to go. However, if Mrs. Wang insisted on going, they would not dare not follow.
Just the unfilial piety is pressed down, and it depends on them to go out. Mrs. Wang didn't ask them to dig up meat to make medicine for her, but just accompanied her to other places. Whoever it is, will support the old lady.
After thinking about it for a long time, the two reluctantly went back to the room and packed their things. When they saw it just now, Mrs. Wang became angry, and no one could resist it.
Instead of confronting her, it is better to go to Qingshan County to be a filial daughter-in-law. And they haven't been far away, so they should go out to see and see.
In the evening, the second and third children of the Jin family came back, and they all said that the matter had been done. Hearing this, Mrs. Wang nodded, and then said, "Well done, this is the only big thing we can do for your eldest brother." Come and sit down, I have something to say. ”
After the two sons and daughter-in-law sat down, Mrs. Wang said, "Over the years, I am most sorry for your eldest brother." If I hadn't been negligent in the first place, he wouldn't have been targeted by Hanako. It's okay to say that he is doing well, but now he is still in prison. Thirty years, he has been squatting in it for thirty years, you say, how many thirty years have there been in this life? ”
"Yes, mother, the eldest brother is so pitiful. Everything is fine at home, we have everything, but he is still in prison. ”
Mrs. Wang said so, and Jin Lao Er and Jin Lao San also hurriedly expressed their positions.
"Fortunately, I found your eldest brother before I lost my breath. I have already packed my things during the day, and early tomorrow morning, I will go to Qingshan County. It's okay for me to go alone, but it is inevitable that someone will poke your backbone and scold you for being unfilial. So, let's discuss it now, who will accompany me to Qingshan County. ”
Mrs. Wang's words are obvious, the brothers can only keep one, and the other must follow.
It's just, how to choose? For a while, the two looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do.
"By the way, we're going, but we're going to live in Qingshan County, rent a yard, and live there for a year. When your eldest brother is released from prison next spring, we will take him home with us. Mrs. Wang added.
It can be said that several people had already guessed that Mrs. Wang would go to Qingshan County, but they didn't expect that this trip would be a year.
Zhang and Li looked even more incredulous, as if they had been struck by lightning, stroking their chests and shaking. To say that it was only ten days and half a month, they could bear it no matter what. It's good now, it's a year, a whole year.
Both began to wail in their hearts.
According to Mrs. Wang's meaning, there is one room to stay in the second and third rooms, after all, the family's business is inseparable from people. So the question is, which room will remain?
To be honest, no one wants to follow to Qingshan County. This walk is a year, which means that he is far away from the Jin family's business. Although there are dividends, and there will be no less, it is only serious to control the family business with your own hands.
If you don't handle this kind of thing yourself, you can't rest assured.
Seeing that no one was silent, Mrs. Wang had an expression that I knew would be like this, and only said in a half-loud voice: "I also know that it is difficult for some strong people to want you to follow me to live in Qingshan County for a year. However, it is none other than your eldest brother in prison. Didn't I say before that after a hundred years of me, you four brothers and sisters can continue to work together, or you can split up. If you don't split up, then continue to pay dividends according to the shares of 3331. Now, I'm going to change that decision. ”
Hearing this, the second and third rooms were a little surprised, you know, this decision was the result of discussions with Mrs. Wang when the old man of the Jin family died. For so many years, everyone has paid dividends according to this ratio.
As for the boss's share, Mrs. Wang took it, saying that she would give it to him at one time when she found him. However, everyone knows that the old lady is very shrewd, and she did not die, but bought a lot of land and shops.
Now I don't know how much money there is. His eldest brother said that he had suffered a lot, but once he came out, he could enjoy it.
Now, Mrs. Wang actually wants to redivide this distribution ratio, which is directly related to her own interests, and the second and third rooms involuntarily sit up straight, looking like they will immediately oppose if they are unfair.
Mrs. Wang looked like she was watching a play, and she was not in a hurry to announce her latest decision. She can see that what bullshit is a brother, everything is empty in front of interests.
Didn't they all hang their heads just now for fear of being followed by her to Qingshan County, and now they are all as energetic as eating ginseng.
At the end of the day, it's not for a good word.
After satisfying everyone's appetite, Mrs. Wang said: "No matter who of you is willing to go to Qingshan County with me for a year, and take your eldest brother home with you, from tomorrow, the dividend will automatically increase by 10 percent." Correspondingly, the house that is unwilling to go will have a 10% dividend reduction from tomorrow. ”
This move is not ruthless.
To say that the Jin family's industry is still quite large, the 10% dividend is already quite considerable. It's just that I lived with Qingshan County for a year, and there will definitely be a lot of losses during this period.
However, this is only a one-year loss, but it can be exchanged for an increase of 10 percent of the profit every year for the rest of your life.
Thinking of this, Zhang said without hesitation: "Mother, I will accompany you with Xianggong." Of course, I didn't take a fancy to the money to accompany you. I was thinking that the eldest brother was also pitiful, alone in the prison. I, as a second sister-in-law, naturally want to go and see it. Mother, my baggage has been packed, and I can leave early tomorrow morning. ”
Zhang's words made Li's teeth itch with hatred, but he couldn't find anything wrong. Who made her react a beat slower? And Zhang's mouthful is a big brother, making her seem to be wholeheartedly thinking about everyone in the Jin family, so that the Li family has no way to bite her.
Mrs. Wang naturally didn't believe Zhang's words, but she didn't need to believe anything, she just needed results.
The eldest of the Jin family has been in prison for 30 years, even if he follows her home next year, after all, there is a stain, and he doesn't know anything about business, so it will be impossible to be in the position of being a family member.
All she can do is to keep him safe for the rest of his life.
As for the second and third children, they have already married and become fathers and mothers.
The third child is used to being a little bad by her, but the second child is somewhat like her, and the business is doing well. If the four brothers and sisters can unite after she leaves and do not separate their families, it will naturally be the best ending.
But if the family is divided, it is nothing, the boss's share of dividends has been dotted all these years, buying a lot of land and shops, and there will be rich returns without much care.
As for the second and third children, although their own skills are not large, they have a group of capable people, and they can survive if they invest well. As for the fourth child, he has already married his husband's surname, and he is also a powerful one, and he has purchased a lot of Zhuangzi and shops over the years.
Therefore, Mrs. Wang did not object to Zhang's enthusiasm and this decision, anyway, no matter how it was divided, the silver was still flowing within the Jin family.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang looked at Zhang lovingly and said, "Good boy, you still have filial piety, I thank you on behalf of your eldest brother." Then it's decided, let's disperse, go back to rest, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning. ”
The second child of the Jin family has a single name, and the third child is a sincere word. At this moment, the old lady suddenly felt that the names of the two should be exchanged. After all, the third child is treacherous and slippery, and he really can't deserve a sincere word.
No, as soon as Mrs. Wang returned to the room with the support of the maid, Jin Cheng stopped Jin Hao and said, "Second brother, you are still very good, and you made this decision quietly, which caught me off guard." ”
No matter how powerful Zhang is, it's just a little clever, in the end, it's just a straw bag with a lot of lust. It's okay to be clever in front of subordinates, but it's not okay in front of experts.
Therefore, today's decision was definitely made by Jin Hao.
He had already seen that as soon as Mrs. Wang finished speaking, Jin Hao kept giving Zhang's envoy a look. That's not it.
Hearing this, Jin Hao said: "Third brother, if you say this, if your mother knows about it, your mother will be angry." They are all brothers, a family of flesh and blood, is it wrong for me to accompany my mother to Qingshan County to wait for my eldest brother to be released from prison? I know that if you want to rob you, I can't rob you at all, but that kind of life and that kind of place is not for you, because you can't stay at all. So, don't say that I robbed you of your chance, because it's simply that you gave up this opportunity. ”
In the face of Jin Cheng's aggressiveness and confusion, this time, Jin Hao chose to fight back directly.
was exposed by his second brother, Jin Cheng was not angry, but said with a smile: "Then, I will wish the second brother a safe journey in advance." ”
Jin Hao was right, he didn't plan to follow from the beginning. Life here is a hundred times more comfortable than outside, and in the year that Jin Hao and Mrs. Wang are away, he and the Li family can reap a lot of benefits, and it is almost worth it when you think about it.
Li had figured it out a long time ago. As soon as Mrs. Wang leaves, she can officially take charge of the house. Speaking of which, she has been suppressed by the Zhang family for so many years, and it is time to vent her evil anger.
Early in the morning of the second day, Mrs. Wang was ready for everything. Originally, she only prepared a carriage, but because she brought too many things, she had to temporarily add another carriage to follow.
Among these things are the things that she and the second room family usually use, but more of them are prepared by Mrs. Wang for the boss of the Jin family. For example, all kinds of hometown snacks, clothes he wore when he was a child, gadgets he played with, and so on.
In this regard, Zhang Shi felt very uncomfortable, but she didn't dare to show her dissatisfaction at all, after all, she proposed to follow her.
She has the ability to make trouble, and Mrs. Wang may turn around and kick her out of the car. Others don't know, but she does. Her mother-in-law was famous for her power when she was young, otherwise, she would not have kept the family business and carried it forward after her public death.
This kind of person is definitely not easy to mess with.
She quarreled with Jin Hao for a long time last night, blaming him for why he made this decision. Jin Hao was unusual, and did not quarrel with her, but just said: "Is there an unmarried woman of appropriate age in your mother's family?" ”
Hearing this, Zhang immediately understood, closed his mouth in a witty manner, and quickly combed through his mother's relatives one by one in his mind.
Her eldest brother, who is still in prison, is already middle-aged, to put it bluntly, she is very old, and it is really hard to say whether she can have children.
The Jin family's generation of heirs is extremely difficult, except for the fourth child of the Jin family, who has already married, who has given birth to two children, she and the Li family have still not come out for so many years.
Jin Hao's meaning she understands that the eldest brother will definitely get married after he is released from prison, although he is old, he is better than having a rich family, and it is not difficult to marry at all, and many people want to marry in.
In this way, it is not good for either her family or the third family.
After all, there are no absolutes, what if someone asks for a man? That is the only grandson of the Jin family's generation. I also know what Mrs. Wang will do if I think about it.
The old lady originally felt guilty about her eldest brother, although he couldn't be the head of the Jin family, but if he gave birth to a grandson, the old lady would definitely hand over the power of the family to that child.
However, if the eldest brother's wife is from Zhang's maiden family, it will be different. Now that the Zhang family has helped her, she will naturally return the favor.
No matter how bad it is, compared to the old three-in-one, they have already won at the starting line.
