Chapter 657: Wang Jiawei's Incident
Wan Lao Si straightened the man and didn't bother to go out with Wan Lao Er to get wine. The two of them quickly carried the man to the backyard, one on each side.
"Fourth brother, isn't this my brother-in-law? We didn't find him after they moved to the city. How come he suddenly appeared in the city again? And he's so drunk. What happened?"
Wan Laoer was busy pouring water for Wang Jiawei and wiping his face.
Wan Laosi changed into clean clothes and frowned as he looked at Wang Jiawei lying on the bed.
"I guess something happened at home. He wasn't like this before. It looks like he's drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Don't worry about him for now. He's drunk as a jellyfish and you can't get anything out of him. Let him sleep and ask him when he sobers up."
Wan Laosi stepped forward to cover Wang Jiawei with a blanket, then pulled Wan Laoer out of the room.
The two of them just ate some potato noodles in the shop. Wan Laosi asked the kitchen to add two cold dishes. After the two brothers had eaten and drunk their fill, it was almost time to close the shop.
The next morning, the two brothers got up early. Both of them had something on their minds and couldn't sleep.
"Second brother, go see if my brother-in-law is sober."
Wan Laosi pushed open the door of Wang Jiawei's room and saw Wang Jiawei still sleeping soundly on the bed.
"The person hasn't woken up yet, what should we do? We have to go to the human traffickers today and try our luck. Even if there is no suitable one at the moment, we can ask the human traffickers to keep an eye out for him. If there is a suitable one, he can send a message so that we can buy the person as soon as possible. This is the top priority." Wan Laoer spoke out what he was thinking.
"Brother, the store needs people too. How about I stay in the store and you go to the human traffickers to take a look. If you like something, don't buy it yet. Let the human traffickers keep it for a while and I'll go take a look."
"Okay, that's all we can do. Where is the dental clinic?"
Although Wan Laoer had been to the provincial capital, he had not been to many places and had never bought anyone. He certainly had no idea about the pawnbroker business. Moreover, the pawnbroker business had many intricacies that were beyond the ability of a rough guy like him to handle.
"I heard it was in Changping Lane in the west of the city. I'm not particularly sure about the details. Where did our family buy people? You can go there and ask for the answer yourself."
As the two were talking, the person on the bed opened his eyes.
Wang Jiawei had a hangover and his head was aching badly, so he groaned unconsciously.
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Si quickly turned their heads to look, and saw Wang Jiawei covering his forehead with one hand and supporting himself on the bed with the other hand, trying to sit up.
"Brother-in-law, are you awake?" Wan Laosi reacted quickly and hurried forward to support Wang Jiawei.
After Wang Jiawei recovered, he began to look around and the person in front of him.
Nowadays, Wan Laosi and Wan Laoer are dressed differently than before. In addition, his life is better, so Wan Laosi has become much stronger and has more flesh on his face than before. Wang Jiawei didn't recognize Wan Laosi at first, but he recognized Wan Laoer.
"Second brother, fourth brother? I...where am I?" Wang Jiawei's voice was a little hoarse, and his head was still a little dizzy due to being drunk.
"Brother-in-law, this is our shop. You drank too much yesterday and fell in front of our shop. My second brother and I saw you and brought you back. Are you feeling better now?"
Wan Laosi explained what happened in a few words. Wang Jiawei shook his head vigorously, trying to think about what happened last night, but his mind was blank. It was obvious that he had drunk too much.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry. I'll go get you a cup of tea to sober you up."
Wan Laoer hurriedly went to pour a cup of tea and brought it over, and Wang Jiawei drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking a cup of tea, Wang Jiawei felt much better. His originally dry throat became moister and it didn't hurt to speak anymore.
"Second brother, fourth brother, thank you." Wang Jiawei no longer had the high-spirited vigor he once had.
"Brother-in-law, what happened to you? Why has there been no news from you after your family moved out of the town? We also went to the address that Sister Jing left for our home, but the yard was empty. What happened?" Wan Laosi was very anxious. Although Qiu was not Grandma Wan's biological daughter, she was half-daughter, and Grandma Wan often thought about her. Wan Laosi had been doing business in the capital for half a year and had also been keeping an eye on her, but there was no news.
Now when he was about to give up, someone suddenly appeared at the door of the shop.
Wang Jiawei is a seven-foot-tall man. He never shed a tear when he was seriously injured, but now he is crying like a woman.
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Si were dumbfounded. What on earth had happened?
"Brother-in-law, tell us what's on your mind and we can all help you. Our family is well off now and we can definitely help you. Where is my sister Jing? And my little nephew, where is Qin'er?" Wan Laosi was anxious, but Wang Jiawei cried even more sadly after hearing that.
Wan Laoer took a towel and handed it to him. Wang Jiawei wiped his face and finally stopped crying.
"Second brother, fourth brother, I won't hide it from you. My family encountered a sudden change two years ago. I have been in a daze ever since. I don't have the face to look for you. I can only drink and eat every day and wait for death."
The second and fourth elders of Wan were both extremely shocked. What was the sudden change? What kind of change could have caused the leader of a sect that had weathered many storms to become so decadent?
"Brother-in-law, don't be anxious. Just talk slowly. No matter how big the change is, as long as people are still alive, everything will be fine." Wan Laosi didn't know what had happened to the Wang family. He could only guess a little from Wang Jiawei's few words.
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Si were both patient and each moved a stool to sit down.
Wang Jiawei had been feeling very depressed in his heart for the past two years. Now that he finally met someone he could talk to, it was like he had opened his mouth and couldn't stop.
"Two years ago, I took Jing'er and the children to visit Jing'er's family in Beijing. Just in case, I brought fifty guards with me. They were all former experts of the Cheetah Sect. But we ran into bandits before we entered the border. After a fierce battle, there were less than five of us left. My child was hacked to death by the bandits, and Jing'er was also insulted on the spot. In the end, I tried my best to rescue Jing'er, but I was stabbed dozens of times. My injuries were almost as serious as when your family rescued me."
"Fortunately, the remaining brothers fought hard to get me out. With my last breath, I took Jing'er to the nearest clinic. I fainted at the time, and when I woke up, I found that Jing'er had changed and had gone insane. I was too badly injured to take care of her, so I had to have someone tie her up. I spent several months recuperating in the clinic in that town before I was halfway recovered."
"Later, I took Jing'er back to my home in the city, and found that my home in the city had long been occupied by someone else. It turned out that all this was planned by my enemies. But now I have no one and no money. The little money I have left is only enough to rent a small courtyard to support Jing'er and me. I wanted to ask my brother for help, but my brother led a caravan to the outside world and will not be back for ten or eight years."
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Si sighed after hearing this and hated the enemy to the core. What kind of hatred could make the bandit kill an entire family?
