V049 Not only is there a pie in the sky, but also a trap!(1/2)
The old man's tone was neither salty nor bland, and it was obvious that he had no hope at all for the enthusiasm shown by his eldest daughter-in-law.
"Dad, look at what you said. I'll call Daming and his wife right away, and then I'll tell Cen Zheng not to go home on New Year's Day. Our family is reunited in the army."
As he said this, Xu Man took out his cell phone and called his son with a smile on his face.
"Hey, son, I'm at grandpa's house. It's New Year's Day this year. Our whole family is spending it in the army. Well, we are a big family. It's so lively. If you have any trouble, you will push it. Everyone is happy.
Have a great New Year..."
Huo Rongying saw her eldest daughter-in-law pretending to be happy and smiling, but she didn't say anything to stop her. Anyway, there were some things that, as long as they were not done too much, the old man was always so tepid and turned a blind eye.
A one-eyed attitude. Besides, on a day like New Year's Day, family reunion is more important than anything else, so there is no need to pay too much attention to various details.
"Dad, it was a pity that you didn't go to the last charity auction. I heard that Dongye from the Zhan family is back."
Having agreed on the New Year's Day matter, Xu Man began to pretend to chat about the family affairs, in order to expose the fact that the jade bracelet left by Granny Xia Chu was also auctioned off, but he was afraid that speaking directly would sound like a snitch.
I can only look for opportunities by wandering around like this.
"I went to Zhan's house and saw that boy. After meeting him once, he returned to Shenyang. Why do you talk about him so well?"
The old man is so smart that he naturally knows that what she said is not quite right. He really doesn't have time to do it. He might as well watch the military channel for a while. Of course, when he was thinking about his eldest daughter-in-law, he suddenly talked about the Zhan family.
My son thought he was asking someone to protect the matchmaker. If he had guessed correctly, he would have to think about how to reject the offer. He must not do something that is easy to complain about at this time.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just looked at Dongye at the charity auction last time and didn't have time to say hello, so I asked."
Charity auction? The old man looked at Xu Man.
"Auction?"
"Yes, it's an annual charity event. It's a pity that you didn't go. This year our family was a blockbuster at the auction."
Xu Man pretended to be mysterious as he spoke, while the bad water in his stomach started to swirl.
"What's the meaning?"
The old man's curiosity was piqued by these words, he raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to ask.
"Xia Chu sold the bracelet that her brother-in-law gave her and sold it for several million. The whole audience was shocked at that time. One bracelet sold for three million!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Huo Rongying stood up suddenly, and then screamed:
"What did you say?"
The sound was so loud, like an anti-aircraft gun, that it shocked Xu Man so much that he didn't even dare to move. Coupled with the nagging expression on the old man's face, it was really scary to death.
"Dad, don't get excited. Co-authoring, you... don't you know about this?"
Xu Man barely controlled the fear in his heart and continued to fan the flames. He thought to himself, get angry, the angrier the better, the angrier the show will be, the more interesting it will be!
"I know what the heck! She is really going to rebel. How dare she have the guts to sell the bracelet left by Dandan?! What a fool! Give me the phone call! I
You have to ask this little girl what she wants to do in the movie!"
Huo Rongying's temper was fierce and cruel, far beyond Xu Man's expectation. However, obviously, the effect is naturally better. A trace of proud smile flashed in his eyes, but on the surface, he still had to pretend to be a good wife and loving mother.
The appearance comes.
"Dad, don't be angry, don't be angry. After all, Xia Chu is young and ignorant, so don't get angry. If you have anything to say, everything will be happy for the family."
It's okay if I don't persuade him, but if I persuade him, the old man will be even more angry.
"Isn't she sensible? Is she still a baby who hasn't been weaned? Call her quickly and tell her to come back to the mansion right away. She's got a big belly and she's become bolder. She's grown so damn big.
So brave!"
The big palm hit the marble coffee table hard, and the force was so strong that the teacup on it shook. There was a crisp sound when it hit, and Xu Man shivered subconsciously in fright.
This old guy looked older, but he was still so lively and lively. Looking at Huo Rongying with his eyes, Xu Man cursed.
Wang Ma, who had been busy all the time, saw that the old man was so angry, and she became anxious. She was afraid that something would happen when Xia Chu came later, so she had no choice but to secretly inform Huo Censixi...
"Hello? Is this Officer Lu? I'm Wang Ma. Can you give the phone number to the Second Young Master? I have something urgent to call the Second Young Master."
Lu Yuan was afraid that something important had happened at home, so he quickly took his cell phone to Huo Censi's office and asked the chief to answer the call.
"Hey, Wang Ma."
"Second Young Master, please come back quickly. Something is going to happen at home! The old man is furious when he finds out that Xia Chu sold the bracelet. He just called Xia Chu. I guess she is on her way here.
Woolen cloth!"
Huo Censi was stunned for a moment, and then a look of murder filled his eyes. Why did the old man know about this matter?
"Okay, I understand. I'll rush back right away. Mother Wang, if anything happens, please help me to persuade her."
"I understand, Second Young Master, don't worry."
After secretly talking on the phone in the kitchen, Wang Ma returned to the hall and waited, her heart agitated, fearing that something big would happen.
"Dad, don't be angry. Don't be angry. I'm going to call Xia Chu and ask her to come. Please don't be angry."
The second-hand girl who was on vacation at home at this time was cleaning the house with rubber gloves. Xia Yu's incident made her feel particularly depressed, so she wanted to use this to divert her attention. Suddenly, her cell phone rang, and she had to
Stop what you are doing.
"Hello?"
"Xia Chu, I am your sister-in-law, are you free now?"
Listening to the voice on the phone, Xia Chu frowned slightly. What was this old woman calling him for when she had nothing to do? She was afraid that something was going to trick him again. Why was this person not idle all day?
Is it attached to myself or something else.
"Is something wrong?"
"Well, I'm at the mansion now, dad said -"
Before he could finish what he said, the old man snatched the cell phone from his hand.
"Hurry up and come to my mansion immediately. I have something to ask you!"
That sharp tone made Xia Chu stunned. What happened to this old man? How could he be so good-natured and speak so harshly?
Xia Chu's little head is not stuck on his neck. If he thought about it more deeply, he would know the trick. He slapped his thigh and secretly screamed "Oh no!"
This old woman must have gone to the old man and told her about the bracelet. Otherwise, how could the old man talk to her in such a tone?
"Dad, I'm going now, please wait for me for a while."
After putting down the phone, he hurried to the mansion. When he got out of the taxi and looked at the door in front of him, Xia Chu felt a little frightened. He thought, it's over, what should I do now?
The old man can't forgive himself even if he tells the truth. Even if he tells the truth, it only means that his wife here is not tolerant and generous, and there is no other problem at all!
Moreover, the old man, a traditional and somewhat feudal person, must not understand the idea of jealousy. Moreover, to say the least, no matter what, you should not sell the relics of your deceased mother-in-law, even if they are
Doing good deeds! It just doesn’t make sense! Now it’s a matter of whether to be reasonable or not, to be affectionate but not ruthless, and we can only wait to die! This is it!
Xia Chu, Xia Chu, you have provoked some kind of plague god recently. You are doing bad things one after another. Could it be that you have been possessed by the plague god recently? Your mind seems to be exploding, and you don’t know what to do at all.
.
"Forget it, stick out your head with a knife, shrink your head with a knife, and you will die!"
He slapped his head hard, took a deep breath, and then took steps...
"Xia Chu is here."
Seeing Wang Ma's loving smile, Xia Chu nodded with a wry smile, feeling extremely heavy. He changed into slippers at the entrance and walked into the living room. He saw the old man sitting on the sofa with a solemn face, next to him.
Xu Man was sitting on the small sofa, with an obvious smile on his face that feared that the world would be in chaos, which made Xia Chu feel disgusted.
Sure enough, this old woman started making trouble when she wasn't paying attention. She was really shameless and shameless. She didn't understand how there would be any sense of discomfort after doing something like this that was harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself.
"Dad, are you looking for me?"
The old man looked at Xia Chu with an even sharper look. He was completely different from the person who clamored to play chess with her a few days ago. That kind of seriousness made the hairs all over Xia Chu's body stand up. Thinking about it, she felt so angry.
!
"I heard that you sold the bracelet Cen Xi gave you? Is that right?"
Every word was as cold as an ice knife, pinning Xia Chu there, motionless.
Swallowing with difficulty, he instinctively stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips. In the end, he could only tremble and say one word from his mouth.
"yes"
This affirmative answer made the old man's pair of gray eyebrows come together instantly, forming a Sichuan shape.
"Okay, very good! You are so brave! How dare you sell your mother-in-law's belongings?!"
"Bang!"
With a big hand clap, the cups on the coffee table collided violently. Obviously, this time, these cups were not lucky enough and they immediately shattered.
Wang Ma was so frightened that she twisted her hands like twists. Her eyes couldn't help but look at Xia Chu with sympathy. It seemed that this time, the old man was really angry. The consequences would be disastrous...
This brutal scene made Xu Man feel happy. If she had known how influential this bracelet was, she would have used it long ago. Why wait until now? Of course, it's not too late to use it now! Even if she doesn't use it this time
Let her die, at least she will have to peel off a layer of skin!
"Dad, I'm sorry. It was my negligence. I'm sorry. You can punish me however you want. Just please don't be so angry. I..."
