003 The second uncle returns
I boldly walked into the door, but I saw a middle-aged man standing in the hall, wearing a black tunic suit, tall, with slightly white sideburns, and a temperament that was both good and evil.
At the same time, I noticed a long scar on the back of his hand.
I was a little confused, I felt as if I had seen the person in front of me, but I couldn't remember it for a while.
There was also a woman sitting on a chair next to him, her face was covered with a purple veil, her body exuded a rich and fragrant fragrance, her eyes were watery and charming, and when she saw me, there was a smile in her eyes, "It's Xiao Lu, I haven't seen you for so many years, you have grown up." ”
I looked at the scar on the man's hand again, and then at his face, and something came back to my dusty memory.
I remembered that this person was my second uncle, and he hugged me when I was a child.
Since I can remember, my grandfather and second uncle have had a very harmonious relationship. But since the second uncle met the masked woman, everything has changed, I don't know why, grandpa is very opposed to that woman marrying into the Lu family, and the second uncle has quarreled with grandpa for this.
When I was eight years old, my grandfather and my second uncle quarreled again because of this, and the quarrel was very intense, and my grandfather beat my second uncle, and the scars on his hands came from this.
The second uncle ran away from home in a fit of rage, and I haven't seen him since. When my grandfather was alive, I would be angry when I heard the name of my second uncle 'Lu Qingchen', so I didn't dare to persuade him.
I suddenly thought that my grandfather had passed away, and my second uncle had not come back to take care of his old man's death.
By the way, he's coming back to share the inheritance! It dawned on me that although he and his grandfather had a falling out, after all, they were related by blood, and legally speaking, he had a certain right of inheritance. Although Grandpa is not rich, the house and antiques left behind are still quite valuable.
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a trace of contempt and hostility towards my second uncle.
The second uncle greeted people with a smile and said a lot of polite words. I couldn't figure out his intentions for a while, and I was polite and perfunctory. Suddenly, he changed his words and said, "Xiao Lu, the second uncle came back this time and actually had a very important matter to discuss with you for a year......
I sneered in my heart, hehe, is it finally going to show the fox's tail.
The woman, politely I should have called her second aunt, smiled and said, "You uncle and nephew talk, I'll go make a pot of tea." ”
Lu Qingchen said with a thoughtful smile, let's go, I'm more familiar with the family.
"Heh, I haven't been back for ten years and still remember having a home. Second uncle, you have a good memory. I couldn't help but sneer, and remembered that I had already drunk a belly of tea at Lao Dao's place, and said, "No need, if there is anything wrong with the second uncle, you can just say it." ”
The second uncle didn't think it was angry, and said with a smile: "Then I'll get straight to the point." Actually, I came back this time for only one thing, and that is to deal with your grandfather's legacy. ”
Seeing the anger on my face, the second uncle continued: "But you don't have to worry, although I, Lu Qingchen, am not good, but I will not have no conscience." I don't want any real estate antiques left by your grandfather, I'll give them to you, I just need one thing......"
I sneered in my heart, would you be so kind?
The second uncle said: "Do you look at me like a joke?" ”
I would rather give up my entire inheritance, but the thing I want must be precious. Maybe there is indeed such a valuable thing among the things left by my grandfather, but I don't know about it.
However, when the second uncle spoke, I was still stunned.
What he wanted was that fish-shaped ancient jade!
The surprise receded, and I could only smile bitterly.
Originally, there were two pieces of fish-shaped ancient jade, but one has been sold, and I want to use the remaining one to save my life, but at this time, the second uncle came back, and he also wanted this piece of ancient jade!
Seeing my strange expression, the second uncle said resolutely: "I will do what I say, as long as the fish-shaped ancient jade is in hand, not only do I not want other inheritances, but I will leave immediately, and I will never step into the Lu family again in this life." ”
He said it so well that it didn't seem like a joke at all.
If it weren't for my life, I would have agreed to him right away and let him go. Unfortunately, I can't.
"I'm sorry second uncle, Gu Yu was left to me by my grandfather, and it can't fall into the hands of others. Although you are the son of his old man, you have not fulfilled your obligation to support, and it is impossible for you to want that. I said firmly.
Lu Qingchen didn't expect me to refuse, anger and surprise instantly swept across his face, and then turned into a smile: "Nephew, do you want to fight with me?" Okay, I'll play with you. Since you don't give it, I'll stay here, and one day if you are willing to give, I'll leave. ”
Ignoring me, he took the woman's hand and walked out, and soon heard his flirtatious voice coming: "So our dad is still good to me, for so many years, my room is still left, it seems that as long as I clean it, I can live in......"
My face twitched, is this guy asserting sovereignty to me.
At night, I had something on my mind, and I couldn't sleep, so I sat under the lamp and caressed the ancient jade.
I can't help but wonder, is this piece of ancient jade very valuable? It's valuable, but it's not as high as a national treasure, but why would the second uncle go to the trouble to get it? Or is there a treasure map hidden in it? I went back and forth for a long time, but I couldn't get the point.
I am also faintly worried, the second uncle, this person, can't act with common sense, it is both good and evil, in case he can't get Gu Yu, I don't know how he will deal with me.
But my life is more important than that. As for what he's going to do with me, that's for later.
I made up my mind in my heart, anyway, I first took Gu Yu to the old Taoist method and retired this terrible doll, and then I made plans.
However, I still thought too ideally, of course, the next day, from the moment I opened my eyes, the second uncle followed me like a hanged ghost, he went wherever I went, and I had no chance to go to Lao Dao at all.
I was so anxious that I had to pretend to be indifferent.
In the evening, the second uncle was in the courtyard to cool off, but he was actually watching me, and I was sitting in the house thinking about what excuse to use to go out.
Suddenly, I heard someone calling out to me at the door.
When I walked out the door, I saw that it was my best friend, the fat man. I saw him 'fully armed', carrying a flashlight, bamboo tongs, and a bamboo basket on his back, and happily calling me to catch the yellow eel. At seven or eight o'clock, it is the time for the yellow eels to go out to feed.
I was overjoyed, went back to the house, took Gu Yu, and went out with the fat man. The second uncle didn't doubt it, but he said disdainfully that he was not doing his job.
"Lu Ming, you didn't come when I called you before, why are you so happy today?" Walking on the field path, the fat man waved his fat hand to drive away the mosquitoes around while lighting up the lights.
I said that I suddenly remembered that there was something else, so I won't catch the eel, you can go by yourself.
The fat man was puzzled: "Why? ”
I was a little impatient, "Don't ask why, thank you for today." ”
The fat man stopped, his brows furrowed, and his eyes narrowed into slits, "Are you in any difficulty, you tell me." Maybe there's something else I can do to help you. ”
I smiled wryly, "You can't help." ”
The fat man scratched his head and said, "Even if you can't help, you can tell me." One person counts short, two counts long, unless you don't think I'm a friend, right? ”
I couldn't talk about him, and after thinking about it, he was not unreasonable, so I told the fat man about what happened during this time.
Within a few minutes, the fat man's expression changed seven or eight times, and when he saw that I was telling the truth, he was skeptical.
"Originally, I didn't believe in these things, but the matter is pressing, and if I don't believe it, it won't come to pass." I sighed.
The fat man thought for a while, threw away the bamboo basket and pliers, "This kind of thing is better to believe it or not, I won't catch this yellow eel, let's go with you." Brother can only help you get here. ”
I was moved, and suddenly his fat face was filled with the holy light of righteousness.
At this moment, I suddenly felt someone following behind me, and I turned my head to look.
I saw that under the moonlight, the man smiled weirdly, "Good nephew, where do you want to go?" ”
