Chapter 9: The Second Uncle's Lie

The next day, a ray of sunlight shone on my face, and I squinted to see that it was already bright. I moved my body a little and found that I didn't know when, I was covered with a quilt, and I thought it must have been made by Kong Xue.

I lifted the quilt and sat up, and found that the bed had long been cleaned up, and Kong Xue was not in the house. I called Kong Xue's name twice, but no one answered, where can I go this morning?

I was muttering, and as soon as the door opened, Kong Xue walked in from the outside and smiled when she saw me, "Wake up?" ”

I nodded, "yes, where have you been?" ”

Kong Xue raised the bag in her hand, "Go buy breakfast." With that, Kong Xue walked into the house and put the things in her hand on the table, "There is no kitchen here, otherwise, I can show you my hand, the things I make are delicious!" ”

I wanted to go over and help, but I was pushed aside by Kong Xue, "There are disposable toiletries in the bathroom, you go quickly, and you will eat in a while!" ”

I had to turn around and walk to the bathroom, I looked back at Kong Xue's busy figure, and suddenly there was a little trance, this scene was like living a life, and I began to inexplicably begin to look forward to the future life.

Kong Xue looked at me stunned, "What are you looking at!" Go ahead! ”

"Ahh

......

After breakfast, I asked Kong Xue, "What are your plans, do you have any plans for this time?" ”

Kong Xue shook her head and sighed, "Alas, where can I go?" I don't know. Speaking of these, Kong Xue's expression was a little gloomy, "When I was in Linxia, although I didn't tell anyone about my father's affairs, Brother Tao probably also saw a clue, and before I left, he said to me that if I had any questions about those things in Qilian Mountain, I suggested that I could go to Tang's house." But I really don't want to go to that kind of big family, I think the Tang family is more serious than the Kong family. ”

Hearing this, I nodded, about these, I have also heard Lantern Xiao mention that his father Tang Zhendong is fighting with his uncle because of the competition for the position of the head of the family.

Kong Xue continued: "But there is no way, the Kong family and the Tang family are also world friends, and it is the best choice for me to stay at the Tang family for a while." And I came to you, which can be regarded as entrusted by the Lantern Festival, to talk about things between you, and I wanted to be a peacemaker. But listening to you, I also think there is something wrong with the Tang family! ”

Hearing Kong Xue say this, my heart suddenly felt a little lost, it turned out that Kong Xue came to me because of me and Lantern Festival. But I thought about it in my heart, but I couldn't show it, I sighed and said: "Lantern Festival is also true, you just finished your father's funeral, how can I trouble you because of this kind of thing!" But," I pretended to be casual and said, "Then after talking to me, are you really going to Tang's house?" ”

Kong Xue didn't speak, just looked at me, "Do you think I should go?" ”

I immediately shouted in my heart: Of course I shouldn't go! But I shrugged my shoulders and said stiffly: "How do I know this, anyway, the Tang family is targeting me, so I shouldn't do anything to you!" ”

Kong Xue smiled slightly, then frowned, "Actually, listening to you, I also think that the Tang family is a bad person!" I decided not to go! ”

When I heard this, I quickly nodded my head like a chicken pecking rice, "That's it, you don't have to go to Tang's house!" I can help you too! Regarding those questions about Qilian Mountain, Tang Zhendong understands, my second uncle understands, Tang Zhendong doesn't understand, and my second uncle also understands. My second uncle knows astronomy, geography, and people, can pinch and calculate, and can cure all diseases! ”

Kong Xue snorted and laughed, "Why do you say that your second uncle is like buying wild medicine!" After laughing, Kong Xue thought for a while, "In that case, I'll stay for the time being, you won't bother me, right?" ”

As soon as Kong Xue's words fell, I stood up all of a sudden, "How come!" Let's go, I'll take you to my second uncle today! ”

I went home first, changed my clothes, took a shower, and left a note for my parents, saying that I would go to my second uncle's for a few days. After that, I went to the hotel to pick up Kong Xue and went straight to my second uncle's pharmacy.

On the way, I called my second uncle, and when I didn't expect it, my second uncle actually went out.

The second uncle told me that he had obtained a batch of good medicinal materials through his relationship, and this time he went to see the goods, and if it was suitable, he would pay, and asked me what I was looking for him?

I told my second uncle: "Kong Xue is here, I'll take her over, there are some things I want to talk to you about." ”

The second uncle was very surprised when he heard this, and then asked if there was anything important.

I told the second uncle that I couldn't say a word or two, so I had better wait for him to come back.

The second uncle asked us to wait for him in the store for two days, and asked me to entertain Kong Xue well, and if I used the money, I would pay directly from the store, and finally the second uncle laughed and asked me, is it his nephew and daughter-in-law, this is settled?

I was so frightened that I quickly hung up the phone, and looked at Kong Xue who was standing next to me in embarrassment, and I didn't know if she heard it.

When I arrived at the second uncle's pharmacy, as soon as I entered the door, the young man in the pharmacy saw me, "Yo! Brother Ran is here! You're here to find the second master, right? Unfortunately, the second master went out! ”

I nodded, "I already know, I'm not as early as I came!" ”

The young man smiled, "Yes, the second master has been here almost every day this month, but you have just gone out in the past two days, and you are here!" ”

"When did my second uncle leave?"

The young man said, "The day before yesterday, it was still the ticket I took for the second master." ”

"Where can I get a ticket?"

"I want to think about it." As he spoke, the young man pondered, "Oh, I remembered!" It's Beijing! ”

"Beijing?" I'm a little strange, as far as I know, there is no big market for medicinal materials in Beijing, why did the second uncle go to Beijing to engage in medicinal materials? Forget it, whatever, this old man has a lot of strange ways!

The young man looked at Kong Xue next to him, "This beautiful sister is my sister-in-law, right?" It's just like a star! ”

Kong Xue didn't know if she was dizzy by this kid's praise or what, so she nodded with a smile, "Thank you!" ”

I quickly patted the guy and said, "Okay! Hurry up and get busy! Let's go sit inside for a while! "But the heart is beautiful.

I took Kong Xue into the second uncle's tea room, made two cups of the second uncle's good tea, and served Kong Xue a cup.

Kong Xue took a sip lightly and nodded, "I didn't expect the second uncle to be quite emotional!" ”

I also took a sip, although I don't know how to taste tea, but this tea is really delicious, "My second uncle is a person, his hobbies are too extensive, bronze porcelain snuff bottles, acupuncture and moxibustion musical instruments, cameras, tea and wine calligraphy, there is nothing he doesn't like." ”

Kong Xue and I sat opposite each other, drinking tea and chatting, and this kind of life was really comfortable.

Slowly, a few magazines on the table caught my attention, this monthly magazine is called "Antique Market", and my second uncle subscribes to it throughout the year. Today is the 10th, this magazine is published on the first day of every month, and the latest magazine of this month is placed on the table, but even the plastic seal of the magazine has not been opened. This is not the style of the second uncle!

Kong Xue saw that I was fascinated by the magazine on the table, so she asked, "What's wrong with you?" Thinking about things? ”

I pointed to the chores on the table and said, "Second Uncle has always been a magazine when he gets it, and he will open it immediately without hesitation. But this time it's unusual! ”

Kong Xue smiled, "Are you making too much of a fuss!" Maybe you just forgot to dismantle it, are you too sensitive! ”

"It shouldn't. You don't know my second uncle. "I shook my head, and my gut told me that this must not be normal." The second uncle left on the 8th, from the first to the eighth, so many days, this book was placed on the table, with my understanding of the second uncle, it is impossible for the second uncle to read this magazine, unless he is not here these days. ”

Kong Xue waved her hand, "No, you forgot that the guy outside told us just now that the second uncle came almost every day this month, but he went out in the past two days." ”

I nodded, "So, there must be a reason why the second uncle didn't go to demolish it." I thought for a while and said to Kong Xue: "Under what circumstances are you not going to read a new book?" ”

Kong Xue was slightly stunned, and her eyes rolled, "In the case that the book in my hand has not been finished yet." ”

"That's right!" I reached for last month's magazine and said, "Maybe the answer is in this magazine!" ”

We opened the magazine and flipped through it, and found a feature article about an auction that caught our attention because one of the pages of the article had been torn off.

I pointed to the article in the magazine and said, "It seems that the second uncle deceived us!" ”

Kong Xue frowned, "You mean to say that your second uncle didn't go to the medicinal herbs, but went to this auction?" No, even if he goes to the auction, he doesn't have to lie to us. ”

"But now it seems, it is!" I started to feel a little uneasy.

Kong Xue looked at me and said, "Could it have something to do with what you experienced recently?" Shall we check? ”

I shook my head decisively, "I have already decided that no matter what happens again, I will not be involved in that kind of thing!" Besides, the second uncle just went to the auction, not to the inverted fight, there would be no danger! Let's not bother! I closed the magazine and set it aside, "I don't want to go through that again!" ”

Kong Xue hesitated for a moment and said, "Aren't you curious about what the torn page is?" ”

"This," Kong Xue said, I hesitated again, I really responded to that sentence, curiosity kills cats, but once people's curiosity is mobilized, especially for people with strong curiosity like me, that feeling is like a hundred claws scratching my heart!

I looked at Kong Xue's expectant look at me, and said, "Then let's ...... it."

Before I finished speaking, Kong Xue jumped up all of a sudden, "Okay! I'm going to buy a new magazine and we'll know what's on this page! Kong Xue said as she ran out of the store.

I heard the young man at the door greet him warmly: "Sister-in-law, go slowly!" ”

"Holy! Do I want my second uncle to give him a salary increase! ”
