Chapter 74 His Third Uncle Really Doesn’t Do Anything
Wuxie sighed a lot in his heart, and suddenly remembered something.
Uncle San locked up Uncle Jie in a small dark room for more than ten years!
Is this really okay?
This love is too scary...
When Wuxie thought about staying in a small room for more than ten years, he couldn't help but shudder and mourned for Jie Lian in his heart.
His third uncle is really useless!
How can you treat your lover like this? Aren’t you afraid that your partner will run away with someone else... Oh, he is locked in a small dark room, so he may not be able to run away.
But no matter what, you can't treat people like this.
For him, Uncle Xie even gave up his position as heir and everything he had!
Can't Third Uncle be a little gentle and considerate to women?
A trace of sadness welled up in his heart. If this wasn't his third uncle, Wuxie would have put a sack on him, beaten him up and reported him!
Unfortunately, Wuxie still can't be so cruel as to kill his relatives for the sake of justice...
Someone suddenly slapped him on the head. Wuxie was stunned for a moment, and then he saw his grandmother looking at him with blame.
"I know you don't want to hear these old tunes, but at least respect me as an old man. What are you thinking about? I've called you so many times, but you can't come back to your senses."
Wuxie smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
"I'm still thinking about that TV show, grandma. What do you think would happen if the hero locked up the heroine for more than ten years?"
Wuxie tried to speak, but was met with a roll of the eyes from Grandma Wu.
"There's still more than ten years left. If they keep doing this, they'll definitely end up together in a few years! By then, either the girl will be frustrated to death, or the boy will go crazy.
My dear grandson, you must know that their way of loving is wrong, and you must never learn it.
In other words, we just watch it the way the TV series is filmed. If this situation really happened in real life, the two of them might become enemies."
Grandma Wu carefully and earnestly instructed Wuxie, fearing that he might lose his mind and go astray.
Wu Xie felt that his grandmother thought too highly of him. With the physical and mental state of a fragile college student like him, he was still trying to follow his third uncle's example of forced love?
Impossible, absolutely impossible! It's more likely that he was forced than that he forced others.
In order to reassure his grandmother, Wuxie nodded repeatedly and quickly expressed his opinion.
"Don't worry, grandma, I'm just asking casually." His uncle is the one who doesn't behave like a human being and doesn't force love on others. He is innocent but a good boy!
After receiving the guarantee, Grandma Wu felt relieved a little, and then told Wuxie that she wanted him to stay for a few days and accompany her.
He thought that there was nothing to worry about if he returned to Wushanju. With or without him as the boss, he would not be able to sell the fake goods he had stockpiled.
Wuxie agreed immediately because he also missed his grandma.
Moreover, he had food and drinks and people to serve him in the old house, and the uncles and aunts in the old house all spoke so nicely. It was definitely better than staying in Wushanju, eating instant noodles all the time and waiting to die like a stay-at-home.
Every room in the old house was kept bright and clean. Even though Wuxie hadn't lived there for a long time, the servants had always been cleaning.
Standing at the door, looking at Wu Sansheng's room next to him, Wuxie suddenly thought of something.
He remembered that when he was a child, he had encountered his third uncle several times. A while ago, he was still in the east of the old house. When he ran to the west yard, he found that his third uncle was talking with his second uncle in the yard in front of the study without blushing or breathing heavily.
At that time, he thought it was because he ran slowly and his short legs could not keep up with his uncle's long legs, so his uncle took a long detour and arrived earlier than him.
Now that I think about it, it doesn’t make sense.
Wujia's old house is not small. There are only two ways from the west yard to the east yard. One is the shortcut he liked to take when he was a child, and the other is to go around the back door and then come in from the front door.
If you take a detour, you have to walk a long way, and most people have to run to catch up with the children who take the shortcut.
Although his third uncle is not an ordinary person, but a hidden master, according to the temperament of the old fox, he will definitely not show his fox tail in public!
Wuxie knew his third uncle too well. That man would definitely keep the fact that he knew martial arts a secret and would never reveal a single thing until the most critical moment!
Thinking of how he had found his third uncle near his second uncle's study many times, Wuxie's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he already had some guesses in his mind.
Needless to say, there must be a secret passage between his second uncle's study and his third uncle's room!
And his second uncle should also know about his third uncle playing the small dark room game with Uncle Jie.
Uncle San goes back to the old house several times every month. Maybe Guan Jie Lianhuan’s small dark room is in the old house, and it is right where this secret passage is connected!
In this way, when Uncle San has to go out for something and cannot take care of Jie Lianhuan, he can ask Uncle Er for help. Uncle Er can also help cover up what is going on between them from the outside world and tell them in time if there is any movement.
Wuxie took a deep breath, feeling relieved and a little secretly happy.
Unexpectedly, one day he would be able to see through the evil plot that his third uncle had been hiding!
Hahaha, finally he wasn't tricked by his third uncle!
Wuxie looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, trying hard to suppress the crazy upward curve of the corners of his mouth.
Isn’t that old fox Third Uncle playing hide-and-seek with him now?
Isn't he still deliberately plotting to trick him into going to the Paracel Islands even if he has to use an outsider like Aning?
He saw that this old fox was hiding in the old house and had never gone out!
Disappearing in the eyes of outsiders, and secretly running here to date Uncle Jie?
Haha, very good!
This time, he must teach his uncle a lesson!
Wuxie walked up to his uncle's room with a proud look on his face. Just as he was about to go in to look for the secret passage, he discovered that there was a big lock on the door.
Wuxie felt a little unwilling to be locked outside like this, so he lifted up the padlock and took a look at it.
It should be a new lock that was recently launched. It looks like it is extremely difficult to open.
He could only unlock some simple exquisite locks, old-fashioned mechanical locks like the Luban lock that had routine unlocking methods. This kind of new large iron lock was not within his business scope.
Although he couldn't get in, Wuxie was not discouraged.
Are you kidding? Is Wuxie the kind of person who gives up so easily?
Especially in this situation where he might catch his third uncle in the act, he must find that secret passage today!
There is an entrance and an exit, this is a complete secret passage. He can't enter his third uncle's room, so can't he enter his second uncle's study either?
Taking advantage of the fact that Wu Erbai was not at home, Wuxie trotted all the way to his second uncle's study.
The several study rooms in the old house are filled with antiques, calligraphy and paintings that can be displayed for people to appreciate but are not that valuable, as well as various famous Chinese and foreign classics. The same is true for my second uncle's study room.
Because there were no secrets, there were so many servants in the house, and they all knew some martial arts, and there was no need to worry about thieves, so the study was not locked.
This makes it convenient for Wuxie to come in.
