Chapter 156 155: Lu Hongxia’s invitation

Author: He went to steal the tower

When Zhou Wenliang left, Xu Guangkun was also uneasy. He wanted to follow, but Zhou Wenliang refused and gave a lot of excuses. Cai Genhua also tried to persuade him. Anyway, it was in his Zhou family.

Just apologize, Cai Genhua is the least worried.

Cai Genhua chatted with Zhou's mother, and while chatting, she talked about the recent tragic experiences of her family, and she wanted to borrow some money.

But Zhou's mother had been reminded by Zhou Wenliang a long time ago that the family had no money. The child's marriage had used up the family's money, and now she borrowed money from the eldest daughter to support him and the young couple.

Although Cai Genhua was not happy, she thought about it. The Zhou family had held a lot of weddings before, with eight tables, all arranged at the turn of the day. What a wealthy family.

Maybe with her eldest daughter taking care of her, maybe the Xu family is not as good as hers now.

After Zhou Wenliang came out, he went to the Huguo Temple Trust Store.

"Mr. Lin, he's here again." Zhou Wenliang called as he entered.

Mr. Lin was cleaning the glass counter. Hearing the sound, he glanced at him and said, "I'm off to the east shift. Come back tomorrow."

"Hey, you didn't lock the door. Anyone who comes is a guest, so there's no point in chasing people out."

Because Zhou Wenliang often came there to buy antiques, he became familiar with that old man Lin. Now that there are good things there, he usually keeps them for him.

Is that old man a good person? Usually Zhou Wenliang comes to him for appraisal of antiques that Zhou Wenliang is not sure about.

Seeing that the old man ignored him, Zhou Wenliang came over with a smile, leaned on the counter, took out his gold watch, hung the watch chain on his leg, swung it on his finger, and asked: "Please take a look and give me a slap in the face for this junior."

Mr. Lin pushed up his glasses, took a look, and said: "In the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, I had a gold watch.

180 yuan a piece, he also has two yuan, should I beg for it?"

Zhou Wenliang was surprised: "No, can you have a gold watch? I'm only 180!"

The old man didn't talk nonsense to him, turned around and took out two gold watches from the east side of the glass counter on the right, without the watch chain, placed them in front of him and said, "Can I beg for those two pieces?"

The piece from the Xianfeng period was sold to you for 260 yuan, and the piece from the Republic of China period was sold to you for 180 yuan because of scratches on the watch body. Neither of them are correct as I said."

Zhou Wenliang took a look and found that they were all good, especially the piece from the Republic of China period, which was more exquisitely made, but the enamel on the outer shell was seriously rubbed.

"I was cheaper, so he begged for the two dollars.

Wrong. Did he come and let me see that watch? His pocket watch said to be one of the four great princes of the Republic of China.

I showed him, and he was not fooled."

Old man Lin curiously picked it up and looked through it, then took a magnifying glass from the shelf behind him and looked at it carefully with his pocket watch.

The old man had a weird temper and he was not to be disturbed when he was watching carefully. Zhou Wenliang started chatting with the clerk next to him. They only had one cigarette per person, and Old Lin was amazed.

Zhou Wenliang came over curiously and asked, "How are you, old man? What's the point of that watch?"

"Have you heard of Mr. Yuan?"

Zhou Wenliang chuckled: "Old man, I look down on him! Who doesn't know about the second young master of Yuan? Who doesn't know about the second young master of President Yuan's family?"

"Yuan Kewen, the second young master of Yuan..."

Without further ado, if you want to know more about Yuan Kewen, you can go to Baidu Yidong.

The old man started talking eloquently, and Zhou Wenliang became more and more surprised the more he listened, because the old man's pocket watch was Yuan Kewen's personal belongings, and he had given the pocket watch to his father, Yuan Datou's sixth aunt.

It sounds like quite a story, and I don’t know whether it’s true or not, so I’ll enjoy listening to it.

Speaking of Yuan Datou's sixth concubine, her original name was Ye Zhen.

The woman was originally the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Jiangning. She was knowledgeable and courteous, and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. However, her family fell into decline and she was forced to live in a brothel. The hardships she went through gave her a maturity that was not in line with her age.

It is said that Yuan Kewen, a literary young man who was only 16 years old, came here on business and fell in love with him at first sight in a brothel.

The two have a common language.

It can be said that we feel like old friends at first sight, miss each other so much, and fall in love with each other.

Wrong, Ye Zhen was sixteen years old at that time. She was as beautiful as a lily on the bank of the river, young and innocent.

How can a little girl resist a rich, talented and handsome young man?

She soon fell in love with her, and the two of them had a sweet relationship in Jiangning, and Xu Dong stayed with her forever.

When it was time to say goodbye, Ye Zhen gave him a photo of herself, hoping that the person she loved would never forget her and live up to her.

Yuan Kewen repeatedly promised that he would come back to marry Ye Zhen, and Buxiang was determined to bear Ye Zhen's feelings.

He placed Ye Zhen's photo close to his body and thought about countless plans on the way back to Beijing, begging Yuan Datou for permission to get married.

But when he saw Yuan Datou's face, Yuan Kewen was discouraged without even opening his mouth.

He didn't know what to say. He was clearly going on business, so why did he get mixed up with a woman?

Not a brothel girl!

There was something on his mind, so Yuan Kewen was a little absent-minded. When Yuan Datou asked, Yuan Kewen hesitated and couldn't answer many questions.

Yuan Kewen didn't dare to mention that thing at all.

But no, God’s will plays tricks on people!

The photo in Yuan Kewen's arms fell out.

Ye Zhen's beauty attracted Yuan Datou, and he asked his son who this woman was.

Yuan Kewen was so panicked that he made up random stories: Ye Zhen was the beauty he had found for his father.

Yuan Datou was overjoyed after hearing this, and his previous bad temper disappeared.

A few months later, Ye Zhen and others received the betrothal gift from the Yuan family. The people in the brothel were so excited when they saw the wealth that they didn't know how to ask questions, so they married Ye Zhen out of nowhere.

Ye Zhen thought that this was Yuan Kewen's marriage proposal, so she happily married her.

It wasn't until the wedding night that she knew that she would not marry Yuan Kewen, but become Yuan Datou's sixth concubine.

Everything is a foregone conclusion. Ye Zhen, who is holding her breath, is determined to secure her position as the Sixth Aunt. Every month she hears Yuan Kewen respectfully call her "Sixth Aunt".

After that relationship, Yuan Kewen indulged himself even more. He seldom showed his sincerity, but he treated every girl wrongly, which was regarded as a waste of tenacity and justice.

As for that misunderstood relationship, a photo was left on the pocket watch to remind Mr. Yuan of his first love.

After Yuan Datou died of illness, the watch was given to his sixth aunt.

I didn't know what happened at first, but the pocket watch wandered around and ended up in Xu Guangkun's lap.

Xu Damao said that his father brought it from Xiangdong, but seeing Xu Guangkun's nervous look, he didn't want to deny it.

Zhou Wenliang didn't know exactly what happened, but the pocket watch was indeed Yuan Kewen's, so it had value.

Old Lin also liked the pocket watch, but Zhou Wenliang said it was not his, and he took it for appraisal and would not sell it.



Zhou Wenliang took it in his lap, looked through it, kicked it into his pocket, and went back to tell Xu Guangkun, "I showed it to someone and they said it cost 180 yuan for a worn-out gold watch."

Xu Guangkun's face turned red and he said angrily: "It's shabby, then... I don't know anything, he won't sell it."

He turned around and begged to leave. Zhou Wenliang didn't stop him, but Cai Genhua said right there: "Xiao Liang, if it can't go up any more, can it be a gold watch?"

Zhou Wenliang shrugged and expressed embarrassment: "It's not that he accepts it, he's also a middleman, and he also knows our situation. He talked to us for a long time, and he didn't tell us whether the price we offered at the beginning was 160 yuan.

Dry mouth..."

Cai Genhua asked him to negotiate the price again, but the offer was too little. She also said that Xu Damao had a good relationship with him, and she couldn't just watch him being arrested. I begged him to find a way.

Zhou Wenliang was unhappy when he heard that he had to help with my family's affairs. We didn't even say a word of thanks, which was a shame for him. Now he's playing the emotional card. I have a good relationship with his family, right?

Cai Genhua walked away disappointed, and Zhou Wenliang smiled.

If I want to get out of the business as soon as possible, I can sell it to a trust store, but the price offered by the trust is more than 160 yuan, which is what Old Man Lin said.

Trust shops in Beijing also have their own external measurement of prices, and whether they have rules on what kind of prices they charge and how much they charge.

If you find someone you like, then you don’t have to specify how much you want to give.

There are very few people like that in Bu Nao.



The next day at work, when Zhou Wenliang arrived at the archives department, he saw Lu Hongxia standing at the door. Seeing him from a distance, she smiled and waved her legs.

Zhou Wenliang rode over and asked in surprise: "Hey, what a rare visitor! Welcome to Miss Lu to inspect the work of the Archives Department."

Lu Hongxia covered her mouth and laughed loudly, came over and hit him, and scolded him with a smile: "What's the matter, don't you want him to come over?"

Zhou Wenliang parked the car, turned around and looked at her, and said with a smile: "Why Keke, he welcomes me every day."

The two of them entered the Archives Department office in amusement, and Zhu Hongmei brought two cups of tea. They chatted and asked about business matters.

"Liangzi, he is getting married to Xu Kunqiu. I will definitely ask him to come when the time comes."

Zhou Wenliang was stunned for a moment, then went to say: "That's no problem, I'm getting married. If I don't let him go, he will be worried about me."

"Haha, don't worry, I will let anyone who doesn't let me go."

Cai Xukun married Lu Hongxia? Li Huaide agreed?

Zhou Wenliang walked and leaned on the chair, touching the dongba.

Sun Xiuxiu.

Sun Xiuxiu came to the steel rolling mill, and Li Huaide, who had always mistakenly thought that the two were together, agreed.
