Chapter 4: A Mysterious Letter
I was going to inquire at Agui's house, but after hanging up the phone, I left my backpack after eating at Agui's house, and I left my phone when I left, and by the way, I gave him some money, so that Agui had any news from the fat man, and he must call me back.
Out of the mountains, just have the same day's air ticket, take the plane at eight o'clock in the evening to go back to Hangzhou, modern high-tech is good, remember the first few times are to catch the train to transfer to the car, the intestines along the way are knotted tragic situation, can't help but smile bitterly, I damn it, why was it in the first place! As soon as I got out of the airport, a black Audi pulled up in front of me, and I was startled by the suddenness of the arrival.
Subconsciously took a step back, I stared at the Audi in front of me with some vigilance, this is the old Audi A6, when it first came out, it was worth more than a million, and now it is no longer sold on the market, but it has become a hot collection for some fans, the shape is square and low-key, if it is not for the four rings in front, no one will associate it with the beautiful Audi of the model.
The car window slowly rolled down, revealing a thin face, high convex cheekbones, sharp eyes staring at me, I don't know this person, just his eyes I don't think it's simple, I have seen a lot of large and small characters in recent years, and the people in front of me are not ordinary.
Before I could react, the person in the car said calmly: "The second master asked me to pick you up and get in the car." He pushed the car door open from the inside, and I got into the car, and I wondered even more, what happened, who would send me an urgent letter?
The person driving was expressionless, there was nothing to say all the way, I had few opportunities to meet the second uncle, in my image, the second uncle was a luxurious person, but his luxury was not conspicuous, most of the time he wore white or Tibetan Tang costumes, only when he went out to change some normal clothes, his residence was my grandfather's real estate, and now it has been turned into a small white villa, among the three sons of my grandfather, my father is honest Bala, my third uncle is reckless, just my second uncle, when he was young, it is said that he harmed many girls, and has everyone's aristocratic atmosphere, Later, it was probably too conspicuous, and I was educated by my grandfather, and I was very low-key after that.
Our Wu family's roots are in Changsha, so the second uncle rarely leaves the boundaries of Changsha, and there is a small property in Hangzhou, which is regularly taken care of by only one hourly union, and I occasionally help to take a look. The car turned around and drove into an old tube building in the southern district, which was about to be relocated, but someone proposed to retain the characteristics of the times, and the two groups of people were fighting for it, and those old buildings are still standing in a forest.
After a while, the low-key old Audi stopped at the entrance of the laneway, the man got out of the car, walked in front of me, and walked quickly in front of the road. Suddenly, the person in front of him turned his head, glared at me with sharp eyes, and frowned: "Second master is in a hurry, you hurry up." "I tossed enough this day, walked a day on the mountain road, and then booked a plane ticket non-stop, and accidentally overturned it while drinking saliva on the plane, what kind of sin did I make.
I followed him in a depressed mood, the corridor was dark, there were not many people living in the dense tube building, there were sporadic lights, the second uncle's house was on the first floor, as soon as I entered, there were a few dishes on the table, and the second uncle was sitting in the position smoking, wearing a white Tang costume at home.
I called the second uncle when I entered the door, he raised his head, beckoned to me, and said, "Sit down and eat first." "The black-faced god behind me directly closed the door, and finally locked it, and I immediately felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
I sat down under the second uncle, and the second uncle put out the half-smoked cigarette and said to the black-faced god, "Old Lei, sit down." The black-faced god nodded expressionlessly, turned to the wall, and pulled the curtains tightly before sitting down.
A year ago, when the second uncle came to Zhangjia Gulou to save me, he brought all the good hands around him, and I didn't see this old thunder at that time, where did he come from? Seeing my scrutinizing gaze, the second uncle spoke: "Lao Lei is a partner I met when I was young, I haven't seen him for more than 20 years, and now he is with me for the time being." "What are you doing together, the second uncle didn't say, in short, this black-faced god named Lao Lei is very polite, and after sitting down, he eats with chopsticks by himself, more comfortable than me.
I poured a glass of wine for the second uncle, and added a glass in front of Lao Lei when I was done, seeing that the second uncle had a good attitude towards him. He raised his head and looked at me expressionlessly, stretched out his hand to push the wine glass in front of the second uncle, and then buried his head in eating expressionlessly, I stared, what the hell is this? , he's a relative of the little brother, right?
The second uncle waved his hand and said, "Lao Lei can't drink wine, eat first." During the banquet, the second uncle chatted with me about some family life, and asked me about my plans for the future, I thought about it and told him what I thought, and he muttered: "I don't care about the third child's affairs, but it's not so easy for you to bleach, and those people under you will definitely rebel." "I also want to get this, the antique ware industry, the real money-making transactions are in private, those really good things are not allowed to be traded for money, if you want to do business on the surface, the handicap must shrink by at least fifty percent, but if you don't do this, I really don't know how long I can last, maybe I can't last ten years, I have to go to prison and squat.
The water is too deep, I'm just an ordinary person, at best a little money, if it weren't for the experience of the past few years, I am a person who will get goosebumps when I see a chicken, and it is already good to be able to manage my own shop, and I want to take over the entire industry of the third uncle, I don't think I have that ability.
With a wry smile, I saluted the second uncle with a glass of wine, and said: "Second uncle, it's not that my nephew is not angry, you have watched me grow up since I was a child, you know what kind of goods I am, if you really don't care about the affairs of the hall, the third uncle's hard work will be ruined sooner or later, you should help me, no matter how you let go, you have to give me a trick." ”
The second uncle drank wine, frowned when he heard it, and said, "Have a virtue with your father." After speaking, he suddenly paused, glanced at me, and said in a deep voice: "I do know what kind of goods you are......" stopped halfway through, changed the topic, and talked to me about family life.
The meal was unhurried, I had no bottom in my heart, looking at the second uncle's appearance, it didn't seem like he was in a hurry, so he said tentatively: "Second uncle, you are in such a hurry to call me back, what about the letter?" ”
At this time, we also ate about the same, and when I asked, he put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth and got up and said, "You come with me." I went into the study with him, this study was a little shivering, compared with the second uncle's small villa like a slum, there was a row of bookcases against the wall on the right, and there was a narrow wooden table with paint peeling next to the window, he took out the key in his pocket, opened the drawer and took out a white envelope and handed it to me, saying, "See for yourself." ”
I thought that the second uncle had read it in advance, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry to find me, but I didn't expect that this letter had not been opened.
This is not an express delivery, but the oldest kind of yellow paper envelope, the seal is glued with glue, the receiving address written on it is my shop, and the mailing address reads: 303, Building 1, Old Dormitory, Nanwei Road, it seems that it was sent by the city, and the sender's name was not written, but the following words were written in a conspicuous position in the envelope: Innocent and pro-Kai.
Obviously, this letter was for me to see, so the second uncle never opened it, and he was staring nervously at the envelope in my hand at the moment.
This letter was originally nothing special, but as soon as I looked at the handwriting on the letter, I instantly understood the reason why the second uncle was so nervous. Looking at the familiar self above, I couldn't help but pinch myself, it really hurts!
But I will never admit the handwriting, I do the rubbing business, and I have a sharp ability to distinguish notes, this font ...... This font turned out to be the handwriting of the third uncle!
I opened my mouth wide and looked up at the second uncle, only to see that he was staring at the letter in my hand, and said, "Big nephew, look at what the third brother wrote...... Damn it, this kid is still alive! ”
My mind is in a mess, after the dispersion of the Western Queen Mother Country, the third uncle has not returned yet, it has been nearly a year, he was still bitten by the neck of a pheasant at that time, plus the group of people who stayed to take care of him, they are all in Cao Ying's heart in Han, I almost have no hope for the survival of the third uncle, and now the letter that appeared in front of my eyes suddenly made my head full of meat and vegetables, first of all, great joy, and then followed, it was deeper doubts...... If the third uncle is still alive, why doesn't he come forward? What's going on?
For a moment, my mind was in a mess. Seeing me like this, the second uncle sighed and said, "You can't see anything when you stare at it like this." I reacted and hurriedly tore open the seal.
