Chapter 272 Guess where his courtyard came from? 【Monthly Pass】
"What are you shouting for? Everyone has left. Go to the Palace of Hell to call him back." The door of the residence next door opened, and an old lady with little feet on crutches said to Old Mu.
"He's gone? Dead?" Lao Mu asked.
"Isn't that right? I've been gone for a few days," the old lady said.
"Why are you leaving now? I have something serious to do with him, and I won't wait for a few days." Lao Mu said.
"Ouch! Whose unlucky child are you? Are you talking in human language? I have to tell you in advance that I am going to die. If you are an unlucky child from my family, I can beat you to death. Get out! Look at you.
This naughty kid is upset.
If you don’t leave, I will lie on the ground and say you hit me. I believe it or not, there is no surveillance here. If you talk nonsense next time, you unlucky kid, be careful to be struck by lightning and kill you." The old lady said angrily to Old Mu.
When Lao Mu heard this, he kept apologizing to the old lady, and then hurriedly ran away with Zhao Mingyang. He knew he had said the wrong thing, so why did he say such a stupid thing.
Zhao Mingyang was also confused. Sitting on the battery car before, Zhao Mingyang's mind was full of thoughts, especially when he heard Lao Mu knocking on the door and shouting the three words "old man" and living in a courtyard in this prime location.
What Zhao Mingyang was thinking at the time was that he was going to meet the legendary old man. In novels and movies, any old man who lives in a place like this is the standard boss character.
Zhao Mingyang was a little excited for someone who could shake up the situation with just one hand. If the old man wanted to recruit him as his grandson-in-law or something, he would rise to the top in one fell swoop.
It turned out to be a good thing. He left. How long has it been since Old Mu came to see the old man?
It’s true that people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations, and things in the world are unpredictable.
Wait, Lao Mu was not notified when he left, so he is no longer an acquaintance.
"Um~ Brother Mu, who is this old man to you?" Zhao Mingyang looked at Old Mu and asked.
"I'm a drinking buddy." Lao Mu said.
Zhao Mingyang(⊙o⊙)…
Drinking buddy?
How do you say this? The friend value of their relationship is equivalent to ~ but not as good as **.
"What should we do now?" Zhao Mingyang asked.
"Let's find a place to eat. It's almost six o'clock. You're not hungry. Let's chat while we eat. I'm thinking of ways. How did this old man leave in such a timely manner? Damn! He still owes me several drinks.
It’s a shame, I’ve lost blood!” Mu Tong said, with a sadness that couldn’t be hidden on his face.
Mu Tong found a seat at the park's riverside restaurant. A waiter quickly came over and asked, "Brother Mu, what are you going to eat today? What are you going to drink?"
"Bring me a bottle of wine that I saved for you, four cold dishes and two hot dishes, that's it. Is there any money left in the card? If not, tell me, I'm recharging it."
"If you have money, Brother Mu, Mr. Qiao came here a while ago and helped you top up 20,000 yuan. He said that when you come, he will tell you that he no longer owes you wine, but he won't come for a while." The waiter said.
.
When Mu Tong heard this, he laughed loudly and said: "This old guy is okay, he is a showman. He will not come back in the future. Little Huzi, serve the wine! Bring the best wine I have left here for you."
"Okay! I'll get it ready for you!" the waiter Xiaobu left.
Zhao Mingyang could see that Mu Tong could not hide his loneliness and sadness.
There are many restaurants and bars along the river. This restaurant is the favorite place of Mu Tong and Mr. Qiao. This is where they first met.
The two started drinking together, and they had been drinking for two or three years. They called themselves fox friends and fair-weather friends. They would not help each other in times of trouble. They would only drink and brag and talk about happy things, or talk about unhappy things, and scold each other for next time.
Keep drinking and make drinking friends regardless of seniority.
They didn't go to each other's house to drink, they always came here to drink. It was only in the past six months that the old man had trouble with his legs and feet, so Mu Tong went into the old man's house to drink.
Recently, I did come to see the old man for a drink. I didn't expect him to leave.
Zhao Mingyang looked at the scenery in the lake and the tourists coming and going, and listened to the songs. There were already singers singing at this point. There are always guests here all year round, and guests from all over the country gather here.
Of course, the food and drink consumption is not low, for example, these four cold dishes and two hot dishes cost 300 yuan.
In addition, Mu Tong and Mr. Qiao are both picky and can't drink bad wine. They both start with a bottle of 200 bottles. If they are in a good mood, they can have a bottle of wine each, and they basically spend most of their time drinking, one bottle for each of them.
If the two of them have a meal and a drink, the starting price will be five hundred. The two of them joked about two hundred and fifty before.
Now that his old friend has passed away, Mu Tong inevitably feels a little melancholy.
When the wine arrived, Zhao Mingyang took a look. It was not a top-notch wine, but it was also very good. The market price was three to four thousand a bottle.
Mu Tong opened the wine, and the waiter brought two small wine bottles, similar to the white wine bottles used to hold sake. He divided a bottle of white wine into half for each person, and then gave each of them a small wine glass, a small wine glass that can be used for one sip.
.
Zhao Mingyang poured a glass of wine and said: "Then let's toast to the old man who has never masked his face."
"Okay! Here's a toast. This guy left just as soon as he said he wanted to leave. It's boring. But there will be a day. I said I would drink this bottle of wine when I have a girlfriend to celebrate with him. I won't say it anymore, just drink." Mu.
Tong poured a glass of wine, clinked the glasses with Zhao Mingyang, and spilled the wine on the ground, which was a sign of respect in his heart.
The two filled the glasses again and clinked them. Mu Tong said: "Usually, Lao Qiao and I can sit here and drink for an hour or two, playing all kinds of tricks. Do you know why we are looking for this old boy when we are looking for Huajia?"
Zhao Mingyang shook his head to express his ignorance, and Mu Tong said: "It starts with the current head of the Hua family, Hua Linglong, or to be precise, it starts with Hua Linglong's mother's generation.
Although the Hua family has a great business, there is one thing that seems to have been bothering their family, that is, there was no male in their family a long time ago.
Moreover, the family is not very prosperous. Either the other children and grandchildren have no children, or they have only one or two children, and they are all girls.
Hua Linglong's mother was in the 1960s, when their family's main business was still on Hong Kong Island, and they all lived in Hong Kong. At that time, Hua Linglong's mother was young, and according to today's standards, she had some potential as a female Aquaman.
I accidentally won the bid, fell in love with Mr. Qiao, and got pregnant. The child I was pregnant with was this Hua Linglong.
Mr. Qiao is Hua Linglong's biological father, but because Mr. Qiao has average conditions and abilities, and the Hua family doesn't want their property to flow out of the family, Hua Linglong's mother and Mr. Qiao are not allowed to be together.
Afterwards, I gave Mr. Qiao a sum of hush money, and he used the money to do some business on his own. He came back in the 1970s. Mr. Qiao's family was originally from the imperial capital. When he was young, he and his parents went to Hong Kong Island.
According to Mr. Qiao, he and Hua Linglong’s mother met in a dance hall. He was twenty-three or four years old at that time. Hua Linglong is now thirty-one or two years old, much older than him, and she has never had children.
, because she couldn’t get pregnant, so she got pregnant with Mr. Qiao.
Can you guess where Mr. Qiao’s yard came from?”
"How did it come?" Zhao Mingyang asked curiously.
"Because after having Hua Linglong back then, Hua Linglong's mother thought it would be easier to get pregnant since she had given birth to a child, but it turned out that it was useless and she couldn't get pregnant.
She couldn't get pregnant even if she was with many people. Do you think it's strange that she could get pregnant when she was with Mr. Qiao?
The Hua family found Mr. Qiao again. Mr. Qiao was doing nothing here at the time, but he also had the name of an overseas Chinese and wanted to do some business. He also wanted to start a family. Hua Linglong’s mother told Mr. Hua
, if you have a child with her, give him a house plus two pounds of gold.
You have to know that at that time, if you could have two pounds of gold, it would be a bad thing. It was the Hua family who bought this house as a gift to him through their connections."
Zhao Mingyang·······
This old man ~ turned out to have worked so hard to get a set of courtyard houses, cowhide, worthy of another toast to him.
Sometimes not every old man who lives in a courtyard can make clouds and rain with his hands, but he may also get a huge sum of money by relying on his own luck and spending some energy...
