Chapter 196: About Entering the Matter!
Mr. Wen pondered for a moment and responded, "The Wang family in Willow Lane has only one family of four. The couple brought two sons. The man in the family is called Wang Xinqiu, and he helps Zhang Luo with some business at the Wang family's ancestral house on weekdays, and they also have a cloth village and an antique shop in their own house, and they are wealthy.
"Wang Xinqiu can write and paint, is an excellent person, and has a wide range of friends, but the only thing that is criticized is that he is in the Wang family. Few people know why he became rich, and there is a vague legend that he joined the family back then to repay his kindness. ”
The Li family didn't speak for a long time, and based on these alone, no one dared to be sure that this was Boss Li.
In the end, it was Mrs. Li who took a deep breath and said, "It's not a trivial matter, the second child still goes to the vicinity of Wang's house and waits, you always have to see it with your own eyes to determine if it's your eldest brother." ”
Li Lao Er nodded, "Okay, mother, don't worry, I'll inquire carefully after I go." ”
Mrs. Li thanked Mr. Wen, Mr. Wen waved his hand and said with a smile, "I didn't help anything, it's been too long, and I can't alarm the Wang family, so it's not easy to inquire." ”
He didn't want to talk much about the Li family's privacy, so he told Jiaren a few more words, and then everyone dispersed to sleep.
Mrs. Cui was not there, and Mr. Wen didn't have to avoid suspicion, so he lived next door.
Early the next morning, Li Lao Er left with Mr. Wen.
After entering the new capital, Mr. Wen went to do an errand, and Li Lao Er went to the vicinity of Willow Alley, found a teahouse, and asked for a pot of tea and a plate of snacks.
The teahouse may have been around for some years, and the tea customers are all neighbors in the neighborhood.
Bird walkers, music listeners, tea drinkers brag, it's very lively.
Li Lao Er was dressed in general, but his bearing was not like that of a person in the market, and the old man at the next table was gossiping, so he pulled him and asked, "This gentleman looks at the face of life?" Are you visiting relatives or friends around here? ”
Li Lao Er bowed his hand and said with a smile, "Uncle Lao asked, Uncle Lao's eyes are really powerful, I am really not a local." Previously, with the relocation of the capital from the north, there was always suffering on the road, and it is difficult to describe it in detail. In short, now that there is one person left, I will walk around and see the beautiful landscapes and simple folk customs in the south of our Yangtze River. ”
The old man was praised for two sentences, and the conversation became even more interesting, so he simply sat down with tea and snacks, and chatted with him for a few words.
"Mr. looks not very old, but he has also studied, find a job in this city, marry a daughter-in-law, have two children, and settle down."
Li Lao Er smiled and poured tea for the old man, and said nonsense, "I think so too, I have a lady in the yard where I settled recently, and I must come to the door to be a son-in-law." I couldn't stand her noise, so I hid out and quieted down. ”
The old man glared at that time, "Whose family is it, you tell me, I'll help you out!" Such a shameless thing as a fatality, even a lame and blind person is unwilling to do it, how can you force you to be a good reader! ”
"That's it, this old woman is too lacking in morality, it's really a shame for our new capital." A middle-aged man sitting at the table next to him also sat over with a bird cage and patted Li Laoer's arm familiarly.
"Brother, you can't be tempted, it's not a good thing to be rich, a dignified man, how can you live by looking at the Yue family's face!"
Li Lao Er pretended to hesitate and asked, "Not necessarily, there should be a lot of money, and life is good?" ”
It happened that the teahouse guy came to add water and said with a smile: "What Mr. said is good, and he has a good life." We have a family in this alley, who gave birth to two sons, and the husband and wife are harmonious, and ordinary people can't catch up with other people's lives. ”
The old man said, "You mean the Wang Yuanwai family?" That's different! ”
Li Lao Er suppressed his beating heart and asked casually, "What's the difference, aren't all the men who are rich greedy for wealth?" ”
"Wang Yuanwai is not!" Not only the old man, but also the middle-aged man spoke up against it.
The old man frowned, and said, "Wang Yuanwai is a rare good man, he values love and righteousness, and he has no choice but to join the Wang family, he is different from other sons-in-law." ”
"Yes, I have known Wang Yuanwai for a few years, and I heard that he joined the Wang family in order to repay his kindness." Middle-aged people also agreed.
The gossip in the old man's stomach has been held back for many years, and when he saw that Li Lao Er was a stranger, it would not reach the ears of the Wang family, so he lowered his voice and said: "It's not just because of these, Wang Yuanwai is a foreigner, he came to us more than ten years ago, and he may have encountered danger outside the city, broke his head, and almost died." Master Wang happened to come back from going out and ran into it, so he rescued him, and he didn't spend less money to help him pick up a life.
As a result, Wang Yuanwai's brain hurt so much that he forgot where his home was, so he wanted to find an errand and stay to recuperate slowly. Master Wang suddenly became seriously ill, and there was only one orphan girl left in the family, so he naturally remembered it and refused to close his eyes. In the end, it was Master Wang who spoke, and Miss Wang knelt down and begged Wang Yuanwai, and Wang Yuanwai only entered to repay the favor. ”
The middle-aged man was surprised, "Ah, so that's the case, I've only heard a few sentences that haven't been so detailed, I only know that it was entrusted by Master Wang when he was dying." ”
The old man was proud, "I was very familiar with Master Wang back then, and I wanted to send him on the last journey, but I made a witness." Master Wang is also lucky, this son-in-law has really not lost anything, he has not had anything to do with flowers and grass for so many years, and he has added two grandsons to the Wang family to continue the incense. ”
"Yes, with the ability of the king, if you don't get into the trouble and go to the test for fame, you will definitely make a difference."
"Even now on the side of the Wang family, I heard that Wang Yuanwai is also very valued."
The old man and the middle-aged man, you and I are talking about it lively, but Li Lao Er is almost sure in his heart that this Wang Yuan is his eldest brother, Li Zhensheng!
The old man and the middle-aged man probably felt that they had snubbed him, so they hurriedly pulled him to persuade him.
"Wang Yuanwai is like this, it is indeed rare, most of them are rich, and life is not easy, you have to be cautious."
"Yes, if there is a way out, you can't get into trouble. We have suddenly become a new capital, and there are many people pouring in, and you really have no way out, so it doesn't matter which shop you go to to make an account. ”
Li Lao Er hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you Uncle and this brother for your concern, I won't get into trouble, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to hide out." When I get back, I'll change places and find a good job. ”
"Hey, that's right." The old man and the middle-aged man have a sense of accomplishment, as if they have saved a runaway youth!
Li Lao Er couldn't help laughing, and poured tea for them again, at this time, the tea guest sitting by the window, someone shouted and greeted, "Wang Yuanwai is back?" Come in and have a cup of tea? ”
The shopkeeper of the teahouse also walked to the door and greeted with a smile, "Yes, Wang Yuanwai, come in and have a cup of tea, the new good tea arrived yesterday." Originally, I thought of sending someone to my house to tell you, but I didn't want you to pass by today? ”
A clear voice replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you shopkeeper, here you are." ”
The old man and the middle-aged man had just finished gossiping, and they were a little weak-hearted, and they lowered their voices and muttered, "Wang Yuanwai came back early today, didn't he come back in the afternoon in the past?" ”
Li Lao Er couldn't hear this anymore, he trembled his hands, propped up the edge of the table, and slowly turned his head...
Three more offered, the weather is not good in the change of season, the treasures should pay attention to keeping warm, ask for a five-star praise and book reviews to urge more, in short, what do you want, Mo Da!
