Chapter 130: Emergency Calls
I asked her, "What did Zhang Zhenren say?" ”
The proprietress said: "He said, your destiny is sinful, and your destiny is six yang and three yin, if someone is willing to help you repay your debts, you will become a great heavenly yin destiny." Only with such a personality can you master the Netherworld Treasure. In addition, Zhang Zhenren also said something that I can't understand, he said, the thirty-six stars are divided into yin and yang, when the stars reach eighteen yin and eighteen yang, our industry can usher in the first balance in thousands of years, but if the stars are wrong, the balance is no longer, and chaos covers the sky. ”
I thought about it for a moment and said, "Boss, I don't know much about the affairs of the life character, but what do you mean by repaying the debt?" ”
She was silent for a moment before she continued, "You came into this world with sins, and I don't know what kind of sin it is. All I know is that my two brothers and sisters have helped you pay off your sin and their own debts. ”
Speaking of this, she fell silent again, and it took a long time before she spit out a sentence: "My two senior brothers died in the same year that you came to Bohai Bay. ”
"Dead?" I couldn't help but be shocked: "Did they die because of me?" ”
"It's because of you, and it's not because of you. My pair of brothers have a very special fate, they are destined to live no more than fifty years old, even if they don't have you, they will die, but it is because of you that they can die as they deserve, and there are no regrets in this life. ”
When I said this, the tone of the proprietress seemed a little melancholy, but I could hear a rare detachment.
I asked the proprietress "If they were still alive, the Netherworld Treasure wouldn't have recognized the master, right?" ”
The proprietress shook her head: "I don't know. All I know is that the two of them were sent to you to make meritorious deeds. If it weren't for you, they might have died in a secret prison in Shunan. In fact, you don't have to blame yourself for the two of them, they should thank you for giving them a chance to see the light of day again before they die. ”
Seriously, I only understood half of what the hostess said.
But I also know that there are many things in the industry that I can't understand now.
All I can do is accept it silently, and when I have been in this industry for a long enough time and know enough about this industry, many things will naturally be understood.
The proprietress let out a long breath and smiled at me again: "Did you come to me this time just to expose me?" ”
I also laughed: "Of course not, there is one thing, I want the boss lady to help." ”
"Say it."
"Boss, have you heard of the Wuling Zhang family?"
"Of course I've heard of it, and I've also heard that the family plans to keep Zhang Dayou in Bohai Bay so that he can be monitored."
"We have left Zhang Dayou behind, and he will live here in the furniture city for a while. I will now let Liu Xiaohui keep an eye on him, and every once in a while, he will come to report to you on Zhang Dayou's situation, and ask you to write the content of his report and forward it to me as a briefing. ”
The proprietress frowned suddenly: "Liu Xiaohui? Is he reliable? ”
I sighed helplessly: "At the moment, he is the most suitable person." ”
As I spoke, I kept an eye on the hostess's reaction, for fear that she would disagree.
Although I had already thought that if she didn't agree, I would tell her that if she was willing to help me, I would use the power of the family to bring more business to the furniture store.
But now it seems that my past understanding of the proprietress is probably all wrong, maybe she is not a money lover at all.
Fortunately, the proprietress nodded at me after a little hesitation: "Okay, although I can't trust that Liu Xiaohui, I can trust you." By the way, are you going to eat at my house? ”
I immediately laughed: "Didn't I come here to eat?" It's been a long time since I've eaten the food cooked by the hostess, and I've been hungry for this bite lately. ”
The proprietress smiled slightly, then got up and walked towards the staircase, saying as she walked: "You come back today, Lao Lu must be happy." Also, don't tell Lao Lu about me, he is not a person in the industry. ”
I caught up with the proprietress in three steps and two steps: "Boss, in fact, I don't understand, why did you find a person outside the industry to marry, aren't you afraid that he will be involved in the grievances of the industry?" ”
The proprietress said: "Disaster does not affect the family, it is a rule that everyone in our industry must abide by, although this rule is not written, but no one dares to violate whether it is the right way or the evil way." Once someone violates it, it will become the public enemy of the entire industry. It is precisely because of the existence of this iron law that people in the industry can get married and have children like ordinary people, and occasionally live a peaceful life. ”
That means that even if I marry Xiaohui, I won't hurt her.
From the time I entered the house to the present, I have almost unanimously not contacted her, and she has not contacted me, so my relationship with her must have ended in a long time.
As soon as I stepped up the stairs, the proprietress suddenly stopped, turned to me and said, "There is one more thing that I feel compelled to tell you." ”
I didn't speak, just nodded at the hostess.
I heard the proprietress continue: "You know, I know, and the second master also knows what I said to you today, but I can't let more people know." ”
I frowned slightly: "Do you mean, those words that Zhang Zhenren once said?" ”
The proprietress shook her head: "I didn't mean that. Let's put it this way, the words that Zhang Zhenren said back then were known to almost everyone in the entire industry, and people in the feasible industry thought that you didn't know. Do you understand what I mean? ”
I nodded, "You mean, I'm going to make people in the industry think I'm still a newcomer who doesn't know anything." ”
Hostess: "That's what it means. ”
"But you mentioned the second master just now, does he also know that I will come to you today?"
"The second master didn't know that you would come today, but he knew that you would come sooner or later, and he also told me that if one day you find out my identity, I must tell you the ins and outs of the matter. These things should have been told to you by the second master, but the internal situation of your family is complicated, even if he wants to talk about it, he needs a suitable time. ”
"Boss, why do I think that you seem to know more about the family than I do?"
The proprietress smiled at me: "Of course I know the family, after all, thirty years ago, I was also a servant of the family." ”
As she was talking, Boss Lu's voice came from downstairs: "Liu Xiaohui, why did you come to my store?" Get out of here, I'm not welcome here. ”
I looked at the hostess and hurried downstairs.
Boss Lu heard the footsteps on the stairs, and immediately turned his head to look, and when he saw me, a smile suddenly appeared on his face that was still fierce just now: "Why are you back?" ”
As soon as I saw him, I couldn't help but smile on my face: "Come back to eat." ”
Boss Lu jumped up to me, took my hand and said, "It's good to come back, haha, I haven't seen you for another month, I miss you." Let's have a drink today. But speak first, drink to drink, you can't be like before, as soon as you drink too much, you go crazy. ”
I hooked Boss Lu's shoulder: "Don't worry, my wine is much stronger now than before." ”
While talking, I saw Liu Xiaohui standing at the door of the store with a twist, staying or leaving, so I said to Boss Lu: "Liu Xiaohui was brought by me, anyway, if he eats alone, it is just more pairs of chopsticks, so don't drive him away." ”
Hearing me say this, Boss Lu immediately frowned: "No, Zhang Ruofei, what's going on with you, first Li Ergou, and now Liu Xiaohui, how did you get mixed up with their gang." ”
I waved my hand and said, "Don't say that, in fact, Li Ergou is very good, isn't it, with the help of me and Ergou, Liu Xiaohui has also reformed himself, and he will definitely not make trouble for the neighbors in the future." ”
Boss Lu looked at Liu Xiaohui suspiciously, and Liu Xiaohui immediately smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, I have reformed myself, and I will definitely not cause trouble in the future." ”
Boss Lu didn't believe him at all, and turned his head to me again: "Is what he said true?" ”
Without waiting for me to speak, the proprietress came over and said to me and Boss Lu: "You two will talk for a while, I'll go cook, it just so happens that there are still a few big bones at home, and I'll stew you sauce big bones." ”
After speaking, the proprietress went to the backyard, and Boss Lu stared at the door of the backyard, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
I patted him on the shoulder: "Old Lu, what's wrong with you?" ”
Boss Lu pointed to the back door and said to me in surprise: "She, she, she...... The tigress actually took the initiative to cook, do you think it's strange? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of the proprietress came from the backyard: "Who is the tigress!" ”
Boss Lu hurriedly shrunk his neck, as if the boss's feather duster would fall on his head in the next moment.
It wasn't until he confirmed that the proprietress hadn't rushed out of the backyard that Boss Lu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to me, "Do you think that she is a little wrong today?" ”
I was going to say, "Why is it wrong for people to take the initiative to cook?" Do you really want the proprietress to be like usual, and drive you into the kitchen with a feather duster as soon as the meal arrives? ”
But just as he was about to speak, the mobile phone rang sooner or later.
I took out my phone and saw that it was a man who called, and I made up my mind to have a meal at Boss Lu's place, afraid that she would let me rush back to the store for a trivial matter, so I hung up directly.
I just hung up here, and within a few seconds, Yan Yanan called again, and I still hung up.
Recently, Li Huaishan and I have not left the old alley, but as long as we leave for more than an hour, Yan Yanan will call us to urge us to go back, and the excuse is very consistent every time, either there is no soy sauce at home, or there are no green onions at home, let us buy it back quickly, otherwise she will not be able to cook.
If you don't have soy sauce, you can't use salt, and if you don't have green onions, you can't use garlic and ginger.
Li Huaishan and I also knew that Yan Yanan was staring at us closely, and he was anxious to urge us to go back, because he was afraid that we would delay our practice, so he followed her most of the time.
Seeing that I didn't answer the two phone calls, with the character of Yan Yanan, she shouldn't call again, which will probably be holding her breath, thinking about how to clean me up.
Just thinking so, Yan Yanan called again.
Listening to the rapid ringing of the mobile phone, I gradually realized that something was wrong, and after a little hesitation, I still chose to connect.
As soon as he was connected, Yan Yanan shouted on the other end of the phone: "The day after tomorrow is the ten-year festival of our old family, you come back quickly, otherwise it will be a big trouble!" ”
