After Brother Bao left, on the surface, the matter was resolved smoothly, but Huan Xin always felt something strange, as if something bigger was going to happen.
The third uncle picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He pushed the 20,000 yuan that Huan Xin took out back to Huan Xin and said, "You'd better take this money back. After all, it's my money to buy jade."
When they arrived, Su He insisted that he would return the money, saying that he would never ask for such money no matter what. Although they were poor, they still knew the difference between right and wrong and would not do anything for money.
Huan Xin knew that Su Changhai's hospitalization and treatment for his leg injury would definitely cost a lot of money. For Su He, Su Changhai must not be able to work recently, so the pressure will fall on Su He alone.
On the body, Huan Xin couldn't help but frowned when he thought of this. He pointed at the 20,000 yuan and said, "Third uncle, if I solve your problem, the 20,000 yuan will be regarded as a reward."
The third uncle was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Why do you have a grudge against money? Are you pushing this little money around?"
Huan Xin said in a very clear-cut manner: "Some money can be taken, and some money can't. If this is the money from selling jade, even if I take it back, it will be contaminated by the cause and effect. But if this is the money to see things, I will treat it as your boss."
The reward is good."
The third uncle nodded, no longer trying to persuade his heart, he could just say whatever pleased him, the important thing was to see what was going on.
Huanxin took a sip of tea and said to her third uncle, "Please tell me what's going on?"
At this time, after Brother Bao left, Boss Xu quietly sat down at their table. After nodding his head and saying hello to Huan Xin, he sat next to the third uncle in a polite manner like a junior and stopped talking.
The third uncle thought about it for a long time and said that it was a long story, so he really told Huan Xin a very long story.
The third uncle's real name is Xu Tianhao, and he and Boss Xu's father, Xu Tianfu, are brothers. Before liberation, the two of them worked as apprentices at Baoshunzhai, the largest antique shop in Huhai at that time.
At that time, the two teenage brothers were still highly regarded by the shopkeeper. The elder brother Xu Tianfu was not only smart and quick to learn anything, he was also kind-hearted, energetic in his eyes, and very discerning. This was
In the eyes of the shopkeeper, it can be said that he is a key talent to be cultivated.
Although he is not as good as his brother, he can still endure hardships and does some hard work without any complaints. In this way, the two brothers have established themselves in Baoshunzhai. After a few years, they can be regarded as the "old men" of Baoshunzhai.
At that time, Baoshunzhai's business was booming, and there was an endless stream of business going from north to south. At that time, Xu Tianfu had already been promoted from a waiter to a receptionist, and he was looking forward to the arrival of someone every day.
This person was the youngest daughter of Boss Liu, a famous capitalist in Huhai at that time. Mr. Liu was very fond of antiques. He would come to Baoshunzhai every now and then to browse around. If there was anything he liked, he would immediately buy it.
, never counteroffer.
And every time Boss Liu is accompanied by her youngest daughter Liu Manling. Liu Manling is just twenty-eight years old. She is as beautiful as a lotus, and her snow-white skin almost makes Xu Tianfu dream like a dreamer. She is like a fairy.
There was no rich girl like him that a poor boy like him had ever seen. From the first time he saw Liu Manling, Xu Tianfu fell in love with this girl and fell deeply in love with her.
But the status of the two is completely different. Although Miss Liu is still very easy-going, Boss Liu is personally received by the shopkeeper every time, and his brother Xu Tianfu is responsible for accompanying Miss Liu.
Liu Manling often wears a dress and skirt, and occasionally wears some cheongsam. Her graceful figure can always attract the attention of all men, including of course Xu Tianfu and Xu Tianhao.
The third uncle paused, glanced at Boss Xu on the side, and then said that although he was still a teenager at the time, he still understood women, but he was still too young at the time.
As her brother was still in his youth, he was about the same age as Miss Liu. Over time, Miss Liu was also attracted by Xu Tianfu's rich knowledge of antique appreciation. Naturally, she knew a lot about antiques since she was a child, and she also had many collections of treasures at home.
.
The two became good friends. From then on, his brother Xu Tianfu secretly vowed that he would be successful in his life and marry the eldest daughter of the Liu family when he had money. Xu Tianhao, who was the younger brother at that time, also supported his brother.
Xu Tianhao was deeply moved by his decision to give the remaining wages to his brother every month.
But things are unpredictable, and Huhai soon ushered in liberation. For those capitalists, it was like a nightmare. They began to escape desperately, and Boss Liu's family was already in a mess, and everyone was frantically scrambling.
The treasures of the family, and Boss Liu also packed several large boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings, ready to be shipped to a factory that has been operating in Taiwan for many years. For some unknown reason, Boss Liu did not bring his favorite little daughter Liu Manling with him.
Due to the turmoil of the current situation at that time, rich people all wanted to escape by boat, so Liu Manling was abandoned in Huhai...
When Xu Tianfu saw Miss Liu again, several days had passed. At that time, Baoshun Zhai had long been closed, and the owner and shopkeeper had fled early.
One night, Xu Tianfu and his younger brother were planning to escape from the city first, but he remembered that the shopkeeper had not taken everything with him before leaving. He thought of going to Baoshunzhai at night to see if there was anything left.
It was something valuable, so I took Xu Tianhao with me to prepare for the two brothers to search it.
When the two of them arrived at the back door of Baoshunzhai, they were surprised to find a ragged girl huddled next to the back door. Judging from the girl's appearance and figure, she looked very much like Liu Manling.
Xu Tianfu quickly stepped forward to check. Unexpectedly, this person was really the former Miss Liu, but at this time, Miss Liu seemed to be greatly frightened and was in a trance.
Xu Tianfu naturally didn't care so much, so he hurriedly guarded the door and brought Miss Liu into Baoshun Zhai.
Under Xu Tianfu's patient comfort, Liu Manling's mood finally stabilized. She threw herself into Xu Tianfu's arms and burst into tears. She told about her experiences of being homeless these past few days, saying that her only valuable jade bracelet had also been stolen.
He was robbed, but fortunately he was fine...
Later, Xu Tianfu learned about the situation and stood up without hesitation, saying that he would take care of Liu Manling for the rest of her life. Liu Manling, who was desperate, was also moved by her brother Xu Tianfu at this time, so she naturally became Xu Tianhao's sister-in-law.
A few people really found a lot of good things in Baoshunzhai, so Xu Tianfu took Liu Manling and his younger brother, and took the treasures they found, and escaped from Huhai overnight and came to the home of a distant relative in the countryside. It just happened that this
The daughter of a relative fell ill and died two days ago, and before she could be buried, Xu Tianfu made a plan and simply gave the relative a lot of money and asked Liu Manling and Li to replace the dead girl.
The relative saw that Xu Tianfu had brought out the bad Ocean, and this place was extremely remote. At that time, Huanghua's eldest daughter rarely went out, and usually did not go out of the house, so there were very few people who knew this girl.
As soon as the relatives put their minds together, they readily agreed.
In order to protect Miss Liu, Xu Tianfu could only do this, otherwise her identity would cause big trouble, so Xu Tianfu thought of this trick and directly asked Miss Liu to replace the daughter of his deceased relative, so there was no more Liu Manling in the world.
