On the second day, the snow stopped early. Wu Zheng opened the door and saw that there was only a thin layer on the ground. Coupled with the unmelted snow piled up in the shade of the corner from a few days ago, it was actually
It's not too thick either.
The servants got up early in the morning to clean the road. When the masters got up, the snow had almost been cleared. At least, there was no snow on the ground in the main road, courtyard and path. If it hadn't been for several people around
There was still snow on the tree that had lost all its leaves, so one could have thought it had never fallen at all.
The fireplace in Hua's house is very useful. You can't feel the cold outside at all when you stay in the house. It's like heaven or hell.
After a while, several maids came over to help him get dressed. This is the moment Wu Zheng looks forward to most every day. Why? I don’t know, he can’t explain it himself. He just likes it. It’s out of curiosity and desire for the opposite sex.
Can't stop.
Since Luochen refused to serve, Mr. Hua told the housekeeper that there would be no more arrangements. Luochen has a down-to-earth young master's temperament, and he dares to draw a sword and kill people if he is not careful. Speaking of which, there has never been a murder case in their Hua Mansion. I don't want to think about it now.
Yes, I don’t want to do it in the future.
Mrs. Hua dressed up gracefully and luxuriously every day, but she did not feel unkind. On the contrary, Mrs. Hua often showed her love for Wu Zheng and the others.
No, Mrs. Hua was standing by the dining table early in the morning, waiting for the three of them to come over. The old housekeeper wanted to send someone to urge them, but Mrs. Hua refused. Speaking of which, the old housekeeper just opened his mouth and mentioned it.
He really didn't dare to send anyone to disturb the playboy's purity. The old butler knew better than anyone what his young master was like.
Fortunately, the old housekeeper has already figured out everything Mrs. Hua says and does, and knows that Mrs. Hua will definitely refuse, so he dares to ask. In fact, to put it bluntly, the old housekeeper is walking on the edge of a knife. The entire Hua family is the best at acting based on their faces.
It's him. Otherwise why, with so many servants in the Hua family, he is the only one who is the housekeeper.
The three dudes came to the dinner table lazily. In the past, Wu Zheng was the one who had the most difficulty getting up. But now it has changed. The dude has become the person who hates getting up the most.
The dining place is in the main hall. Fortunately, the distance is not far. We just pass by a few side halls. Old Man Hua and Mrs. Hua come here together every day, which saves Mr. Hua a visit. But even they can't
Come on, given the character of a playboy, he is too lazy to pay a visit.
Speaking of which, the old man's residence is extremely spooky, but he is not a solitary man. He is used to the bustle of his youth, which makes him unable to take time off when he is old. He has a fixed hobby, and he always likes to spend time in his spare time every day.
Take the servants of the mansion with you
Looking for fun. Why is he a servant of the mansion and not his best friend? Speaking of which, it brings me to tears again. Old Man Hua is a stubborn person, and his temperament honed in the business world is not annoying. I haven’t felt it yet.
Now that I am older, I realize that I have no friends.
He doesn't know how to recite poems or write, nor does he know how to play chess or cards. His only hobbies are listening to music and watching plays. He thinks that he has been a leader for many years, but his life is so boring when he is old. He only regrets that he didn't study more back then.
Door entertainment methods.
When the three Mr. Hua arrived, Mrs. Hua and Old Man Hua had been waiting for a long time. Mr. Hua was not ashamed, it seemed that this kind of thing happened often before.
Hua Gongzi bowed to his grandfather and mother before sitting down. Although he was bohemian and elegant, he still couldn't neglect this minimum etiquette. Wu Zheng and Luochen also followed suit. Wu Zheng was pretty good, at least.
before
I have done it. When I arrived at Luochen's place, my movements seemed stiff. Luochen usually lives in the forest and has never seen many people. It is already a miracle that they can talk, and the playboy no longer expects him to do anything else.
Nothing else.
I thought it was just a small talk, and then the three young ladies would take the opportunity to sneak away. However, something unexpected happened suddenly. Mrs. Hua asked: "When will you go out today? It will be cold after it snows. Remember to wear more layers."
Clothes." It seems to be a few ordinary caring greetings, which is very suitable for a mother's tone.
However, this is what Old Man Hua does
He picked up other meanings in his ears. Before the three of them could answer, Old Man Hua put down his chopsticks and pretended to be serious and asked: "You three are going out today."
Playboy didn't hide it, nodded and said: "Yes."
"What are you going for?" Old Man Hua asked again.
"Just take a look around." Naturally, it is impossible for the playboy to say that he wants to sell land, otherwise the old man in front of him will have his legs broken. Just imagine if the property that he has worked hard for most of his life is to be sold.
, how do you feel?
Although the playboy dared to do it, he didn't dare to say it. According to his own words, if he found an excuse, it wouldn't be pretty if he said it.
Old Man Hua pondered for a while, and then asked: "Can I go out with you?"
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, the food in Hua Gong's mouth almost spit out in one breath. Are you kidding me? Going to the street with him, Hua Gong would subconsciously refuse. If he really took the old man Hua out shopping, what else would he do?
Selling land? How to lose money?
Just as Mr. Hua was about to refuse, Mrs. Hua also spoke: "Why don't you take your grandpa out for a walk." Mrs. Hua's face was so kind that people couldn't bear to refuse.
Hua Gongzi glanced at Wu Zheng and found that this guy was putting food in his mouth and was not listening to the conversation at all. He turned back to look at Luochen and decided to forget it. He didn't expect this guy to have anything to say.
What else could he do? Old Man Hua looked at him expectantly, and Mrs. Hua looked at him expectantly. Mr. Hua squeezed a bright flower on his face and said with a smile: "Of course we can come together, grandpa."
It’s something you can’t ask for.”
"Hahaha." Old Man Hua laughed wildly, his teeth sticking out so far, his chin almost tilted up and he flew into the sky.
Young Master Hua was trembling in his heart, wondering if this was disrespectful to his elders? He had no choice but to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. It was his own blood, wasn't it? No, it should be
Are you trying to trick yourself? This is his bloodline, isn't it?
After dinner, Mr. Hua specially put on a stylish dress. He wore it during the last Chinese New Year, and he just took it out to show off today. Originally, Mr. Hua always relied on a carriage to go out, but today, he didn't wear it either.
I know where the courage came from, and he actually said he wanted to walk.
The playboy has no objections, he doesn’t dare to have any objections! Speaking of which, I haven’t gone shopping with my grandfather for a long time. I still remember that when I was a child, I was often carried by my grandfather, riding on his shoulders, and went out to play. That feeling,
It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced it. It’s been so long that I’ve almost forgotten it.
Old Man Hua slapped the servants again, and none of them were allowed to follow him. He was going shopping with his grandson, which made him happy just thinking about it. The old housekeeper felt relieved today. With Old Man Hua watching, he was not afraid of what his young master would do.
The matter of selling land. So under Mrs. Hua's soft eyes, several people embarked on the journey.
It had snowed, and the weather was a little colder than before. Especially the moment I came out of the warm room, the cold wind hit my face. This cold wind was also evil. It penetrated specifically into the neck, making me shivering with cold.
.
Wu Zheng wore a thick cotton coat and wrapped himself tightly, fearing that he would expose a little bit of flesh and be stung by the cold wind. Looking at Luochen, who was still dressed in black, Wu Zheng felt cold.
I don’t know what kind of obsession Luo Chen is with this piece of clothing, and I don’t even think about taking it off and changing it all day long.
Wu Zheng tried to imagine what it would be like if he put it on himself. He would probably be frozen into a popsicle. Wu Zheng just thought about it and felt that he couldn't stand it. Forget it, let's give in to reality and wear more clothes.
As you enter old age ahead of schedule, wrap yourself up. As long as you wear thick enough clothes, the cold wind will not penetrate.
Hua Gongzi and Hua Laotou were walking in front. Along the way, Hua Laotou would shout: "Grandson, look at this." Or: "Grandson, look at that." In short, the word grandson is inseparable.
Whenever Hua Gongzi hears this word, his eyelids can't help but twitch. Why does he feel that it sounds so awkward? Although he is a grandson, he is not a grandson! Someone else's home
Every child has a nice and cute name. My grandfather would only call me grandson. But I had to bite the bullet and agree.
Along the way, there were a lot of people coming and going, and they also passed by a stall performing acrobatics. In fact, these acrobatics are not uncommon. The performers are usually practitioners with poor talent. These people all know that they have no potential.
So he came out to make a living. Such cultivators are rare in other places, but they are not uncommon in Beiliang City.
After seeing the excitement, Old Man Hua was in a good mood and rewarded him with a lot of money. Not only did he arouse the thanks of the busker, but also a burst of sighs from the surrounding crowd. Old Man Hua has never resented the envy of others.
The more others admire her, the happier she becomes.
At this point, Wu Zheng also understood who Hua Gongzi learned his character from. It turned out to be passed down from his ancestors. He just didn't know how it was passed down. It was passed down from one line, and it was passed down from male to female.
There were many sellers of candied haws on the street. Taking advantage of the cold weather, these vendors rushed out to sell. This was the first time Wu Zheng had seen such a fierce competition.
On the side of the road, a child was salivating, staring at the round and red candied haws, unable to walk. The mother of the child was holding the child's hand, trying to drag her home.
Pulling and pulling, he also said: "Damn it, don't go home yet."
The child was unhappy. He looked aggrieved and looked like he was about to cry. The child shook his mother's hand and howled: "Mom, I want to eat candied haws."
This scene is not uncommon in Beiliang City. Playboy has seen it many times. It is human nature. It is normal for children to be disobedient and act arrogant.
Wu Zhengzhi took a breath, rushed over, squatted next to the little boy, and said, "Eat, eat a big place, are two people enough?"
The little boy laughed through tears and said, "That's enough. Thank you, brother. Brother is so kind."
Wu Zheng touched the child's head, and then said domineeringly to a vendor selling candied haws next to him: "Here are two bunches of candied haws."
The vendor hurriedly took two bunches and handed them over. Wu Zheng took them and handed them to the little boy, and then touched the little boy's head.
The child was very sensible. He took it and handed it to his mother. The mother also thanked Wu Zheng for a while, which made Wu Zheng feel warm in his heart. Until the mother and son were sent away, Wu Zheng's
There was still a smile on his face. It felt so good to see the mother and son leaving happily.
Wu Zheng, in a good mood for the day, turned around and saw the hawker just now. Wu Zheng subconsciously wondered why the man didn't leave, and then suddenly remembered that he hadn't paid yet. No wonder he didn't pay.
Let's go, there's no reason why you can't give money for nothing.
Wu Zheng took out his sleeves and found that he really didn't have a penny. Helpless, Wu Zheng had no choice but to look at Hua Gong with hope. Hua Gong was already surprised by Wu Zheng's behavior, but now that he saw it, he was still surprised.
Such a reckless and stupid look.
The playboy dug into his pockets, and it seemed that he had no money. The playboy shrugged and spread his hands, indicating that he was helpless. Wu Zheng was about to cry, wondering what he had done. Now
Fortunately, I can’t regain my face if I don’t have money.
The hawker stared at Wu Zheng impatiently. He raised his hand in the air for a long time and was about to ask for money. Wu Zheng was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, and he wanted to get close to the hawker with a shy face.
At this time, Old Man Hua threw out a piece of silver. He did not realize that Wu Zheng had no money, but simply wanted to show off his wealth. It seemed that this was not enough, so Old Man Hua said again: "No need to look for it.
"
The hawker's eyes suddenly glowed with gold, and he quickly thanked him. At this point, he did not forget to look at Wu Zheng with disdain, as if to say: "You are the only poor guy who wants to pretend to be selfless."
Wu Zheng also lost his temper, so he went up and snatched a large handful of candied haws. He didn't know how to be grateful for giving the man so much money. If he didn't take some back, wouldn't it be a loss?
