Cheng Dehai felt aggrieved. This was the biggest loss he had suffered in more than ten years.
He wanted to talk to Laoguan.
It’s not that Lao Guanjian likes to enlighten people or likes to be nosy.
But Cheng Dehai repeatedly expressed that he wanted to provide for him until his death. As for why, Lao Guanjian understood in his heart.
But at this age, his son left the mainland, and he also wanted someone to die with.
So he pretended to be confused and accepted Cheng Dehai's 'goodwill'.
In the backyard, the Cheng family and the Guan family were next to each other. If anything happened, Cheng Dehai would go and chat with Lao Guan.
I felt so depressed today that I went to see Lao Guan without even eating.
"Uncle Guan, you are already drunk. I even asked you to come to my house to eat."
When Cheng Dehai entered the door, he saw a man drinking alcohol alone, with half a bottle of Erqu, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of braised tofu.
They should all be bought from small street restaurants. Anyway, there is no fire at home.
Lao Guantou looked up at Cheng Dehai and said calmly: "Sit down, drink some. I only have half a bottle left. I gave it to me as a gift yesterday. If you think it's too little, go buy another bottle."
"Uncle Guan, I just came to ask you to come to my house for dinner. Since you drank by yourself, I will chat with you for a while."
Lao Guanguan smiled and said: "I am now buying some old things, such as antiques, calligraphy, paintings, porcelain and furniture. I am not short of money. I don't want to go to your house to eat every day. I haven't reached the point where I can't walk anymore."
"Oh~ you said this is an affair. Since you don't want to go, then tomorrow, I will ask Aimei to cook a meal and bring it to you. There are several residents in the backyard, and we are the only ones close to each other. We should take care of you.
of."
"Okay, hey, I like hearing this, so I'll be waiting tomorrow. Oh, look how listless you are?"
"well……"
Cheng Dehai let out a long sigh and was about to detail the areas where Cheng Guanli was ignorant, but when he turned his head, he saw that a landscape painting by Wen Zhengming on the wall was gone.
"Hey~ Uncle Guan, I remember there is a painting by Wen Zhengming on the east wall. You picked it up and we had a drink to celebrate. Why did you put it away?"
At the old juncture, he glanced at Cheng Dehai and curled his lips and said, "I was shocked by the ceremony."
"Ah? He wants to leave?"
"And the volume of Dong Qichang's running script you gave me. The calligraphy I gave him was considered as offsetting the debt of Jianwen and Jianwu for living in his house for three years. The painting was considered as my personal apology. If I am wrong, I am wrong. I must do things.
It’s such an embarrassing situation, even though he asked for it, I admit it! Guanli, this guy is very capable, and he even said that he would provide for me until the end of his life!”
"This... alas..."
Cheng Dehai hurriedly covered his heart.
He really didn't expect Cheng Guanli to come to Laoguan to clean up.
He deceived the superiors and forced others to arrange work for Cheng Guanli, and also reported to the factory director that Cheng Guanli would not go to work, wanted to take the college entrance examination and go on a blind date, and he was able to seize the opportunity to do these things step by step.
If he hadn't been exposed by Su Ying in the end, he would never have been punished this time.
Even though he was punished, he felt that it was Cheng Guanli who got lucky and met Su Ying for help, otherwise he would have to go to work in the machinery factory honestly this time.
Therefore, although he was depressed today, it was all due to his bad luck and he did not take Cheng Guanli to heart.
Now that I know that Cheng Guanli has come to Lao Guanli and is leaving without mentioning a painting, and is also leaving with a volume of calligraphy that he gave to Lao Guanli, I am really angry and annoyed.
That scroll of calligraphy was really his long-term plan to catch the big fish. Knowing that Laojun liked antique calligraphy and paintings, he gave away the only one he had in his family.
Just to picture the house after death.
Now not only are the calligraphy and paintings gone, but Cheng Guanli seems to also have the intention of painting the old juncture house.
Cheng Dehai instantly felt as if he had lost Jingzhou due to carelessness, or as if Cheng Guanli had raided the camp at night and stolen away his hometown.
I cursed secretly in my heart: This Guan Lier, you really underestimate him, it’s so yin! It’s so yin!
At the old juncture, he saw something strange, his eyelids drooped, and he said calmly: "Dehai, you said that the volume of Dong Qichang's running script was given to me at the beginning. I paid off the debt for Jianwen and Jianwu for three years. You can't blame me, right?
?”
"No, how can I? I just want to honor you. I feel unworthy for you. Guanli'er, this little bastard, is so little. He dares to ask for anything like his grandfather, so I have to give him a scolding.
!”
"Okay! Are you lecturing him or me? Since you gave me the word, it's my business who to give it to. If you don't thank me for repaying Jianwen Jianwu's debt, why don't you blame Sang and Huai?"
"Oh, my dear uncle, that's not the case. I really mean to watch the ceremony. Come on, you can have a drink and stop talking, so that I don't make you angry again by talking too much."
Cheng Dehai walked away clutching his heart, curling his lips at the same moment, and continued to drink his own small wine.
"My heart hurts now? Then there will be times when you will feel pain!"
Cheng Dehai staggered back to the house, looking at the table of food cooked by his wife Liu Aimei, and had no appetite to eat it.
"Master, hurry up and eat. I know you were punished today and I'm not happy. Our mother specially asked me to cook some dishes for you. You and me, please drink some wine and don't take it too seriously."
"Oh! I'm so angry!"
"Hey! Dehai, what's wrong with you?" When Mrs. Cheng saw her son like this, she quickly ran over and asked.
"Mom, you don't know. In the past two days, I feel that I have taken the lead and controlled the situation. I didn't expect that this guy Guan Li'er was dishonest. Yesterday I went to Uncle Guan's house to take away two paintings and calligraphy, saying that they were worth Jianwen Jianwu.
I have lived in his house for three years. Among the debts is the scroll of Dong Qichang’s calligraphy that my father hid before he was alive. Don’t you think it’s irritating?”
"Ah? This kid has really changed. Oh, forget it, isn't it just a scroll of words? It's not worth being angry about."
"Oh! Mom! You don't know the value of that scroll of calligraphy. It's not like four years ago. Gold was bought in troubled times, and antiques were bought in prosperous times. Nowadays, antiques, calligraphy and paintings are priced at one price per day. The running script my father hid during his lifetime is from the Ming Dynasty.
I’d like to show you Dong Qichang’s authentic calligraphy and painting. Alas, I haven’t taken away the furniture in his house in the past few years, but he wants to take away my calligraphy and painting. I’m really angry!”
Jianwen said: "Dad, don't be angry. What's the big deal? I'll go to his house with Jianwu later and ask for it back, right?"
"It's easy for you to say. I already gave that word to Uncle Guan, and Uncle Guan gave it to him. If he doesn't give it to you, how can you still snatch it away?"
Jianwu curled his lips and said, "What's that? It was originally hidden by my grandfather during his lifetime."
"Okay, okay, you two don't cause any trouble, you can eat, I can't eat any more!"
The more Cheng Dehai thought about it, the angrier he became. The more he despised Cheng Guanli, the more he felt that he had suffered a loss this time.
"I haven't had any trouble in the past twenty or thirty years, and this time I fell into the hands of a young boy. I, I, alas! I'm going to risk everything. Jianwu, go to the middle court and call your Aunt Liu over."
"Okay, dad, don't be angry, I'll go right away."
After a while, Aunt Liu came to Cheng's house.
Cheng Dehai sighed and said: "Sister-in-law, the girl who came yesterday is called Su Ying. She is the niece of the director of our machinery factory, so I said it is impossible for her to be interested in Guanli due to her family conditions, but Su Ying seems to be interested in Guanli.
I told the factory director, "Hey, I'm not interested in you being single. I don't care about this. Don't come to me to discuss who you want to marry in the future. You can figure it out on your own."
"Ah? This... okay, okay, me, me, I will figure it out myself."
After Aunt Liu left, Cheng Dehai said to Jianwen Jianwu again: "Don't go to watch the ceremony today. If I get angry tomorrow, you two can go and vent my anger on me and teach him a lesson. In that way, you won't take responsibility and punish him in the future."
If he loses the fight, you, Aunt Liu, must have shouted so loudly that all these alleys know about it. If you jump in line and get into a fight when you come back, his marriage to Su Ying will be completely ruined." This chapter has been completed!
