Chapter 77 Lao Yang: I never expected
Jie Lian also heard the sound of the window opening. He looked up and saw that it was his second brother Wujia. He smiled awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Brother, I'm sorry to bother you again. This is an emergency..."
Wu Erbai was furious when he saw him like this, and spoke in a rather unfriendly tone.
"Don't call me second brother! Isn't it enough that you are my brother? You cause trouble for me all day long!
You and the third brother are both more troublesome than the other. I finally managed to squeeze out some rest time, but it was all wasted on you!"
Jie Lian couldn't think of any good words to say in response and could only give an awkward smile.
But Wu Erbai's face became even darker.
"Having fun in the pool? Hurry up and get out!"
"oh."
Jie Lian responded and then stretched out his hand towards Wu Erbai.
"Brother, can you pull me up? The bottom of the pond is full of mud. My feet are stuck in it and I can't move my strength."
Wu Erbai glanced at Jie Lian's still wet and black dirty hands, with unconcealable disgust in his eyes.
She took out a white handkerchief from her pocket and covered his dirty hands, then took out a tissue and spread it over her own hands. Their hands were held together through two layers of barriers.
Jie Lian's mouth twitched, wondering if his second brother's mysophobia had gotten worse again...
After pulling Jie Lianhuan up, Wu Erbai took three steps back, fearing that the dirty water and mud on his body would splash onto him.
"What's going on between you and Xiao Xie? How did he find the secret passage? Did he see you when you came out?"
Wu Erbai had a stern face and began to settle scores. Jie Lian had been a little afraid of this second brother Wujia since he was a child. At this time, he did not clamor to change clothes first, but thought carefully.
"No, I haven't been out for the past two days. Did something go wrong with Third Brother, or did Xiao Xie accidentally discover the mechanism?"
Wu Erbai snorted coldly.
"Discovered it by accident? Do you believe that?
The desk is connected to a specific sensor mechanism, but it can only be opened when the right front foot is fixed and the table top is rotated to a 26-degree angle with the wall.
Come on, tell me, how can he open it by accident?"
Jie Lian was left speechless, but he couldn't think of any other reason.
"Let's just leave it at that this time. Be more careful next time. I'll find you a new resting place so you don't get caught again."
"Thank you, thank you brother."
Jie Lian stepped forward gratefully and wanted to shake his hand, but Wu Erbai quickly took a big step back.
"No, the greatest thanks you can give me is if you don't cause me any trouble."
Besides, Jie Lian was splashed with mud and smelly water, and Wu Erbai even suspected that he was taking the opportunity to seek personal revenge.
"Be careful with your plan. If something goes wrong and I have to clean up the mess, I'll skin both of you."
Wu Erbai's words were half threatening and half intimidating, but Jie Lian nodded repeatedly and made a secret decision in his heart.
Wuxie can still wander around now, it must be because he has too much free time. It seems that he and the third brother don't need to leave Wuxie so much rest time, and they will directly start planning the next level~
After enjoying a few days of comfort in the old house, Wuxie was driven out by his grandmother.
The reason is that Wuxie has grown up, is sensible and can take care of himself. He is a big boy who can be independent. It is time for him to go out to work and start his own business... Besides, he won’t be able to find a girlfriend if he just stays in the old house.
Wuxie seriously suspected that the main point of his grandmother's words was the last sentence, and everything before that was nonsense.
When leaving the old house, Wuxie was reluctant to leave and looked at his grandmother eagerly. However, the old lady Wu, who had already gotten over her eldest grandson's curiosity, was not shaken at all and gently and firmly locked him outside the door.
Wuxie returned to Wushanju in shame. Before he could decide what flavor of instant noodles to eat for lunch, someone blocked his door.
At first, Wuxie was very cautious, fearing that the customer who bought fake goods from him would come to block the boss and want to put him in a sack and beat him up. Later, after exchanging a few words, he found out that this was actually a childhood friend he hadn't contacted for several years.
To say that we were childhood friends isn't entirely accurate.
He only remembered that this Jie Laoyang seemed to be from a branch of the Jie family. He had met him several times when he was a child and they had a lot of fun every time. But then his third uncle did that thing, and the relationship between the two families became distant, and they never met again.
After we grew up, we still had some contact, just bragging to each other over the Internet. We got along well and this guy was considered a brother of his, but for some reason he suddenly disappeared a few years ago.
Wuxie was very happy that his childhood friend came to see him, and decided to treat Lao Yang to a big meal!
After checking his assets, he opened his severely anemic wallet and feebly spat out a fifty-dollar bill. The bank card in the corner of his wallet didn't dare respond to Wuxie's hopeful gaze.
Wu Xie was silent for a moment, then made a decision instantly. For lunch, they would have beef noodles with pickled mustard greens and chicken and ham sausage, and a pickled pepper chicken claw for each person...
Ten minutes later, Jie Laoyang looked at the instant noodles with half an intestine in his left hand, and then looked at the unopened pickled pepper chicken feet in his right hand. His face showed a complicated expression, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
He... He originally thought that Wuxie, a young master without a family, should live a life of luxury, luxury cars and a big house. If he wanted to persuade him to follow him to Qinling Mountains and take the risk of going into the tomb, it would be very difficult.
The result was totally unexpected!
The only child of the Wu family for three generations, a rare person among the Nine Sects with a high level of education and a university education, he has recently gained fame and is rumored to be the third master who can inherit Wu Sansheng's legacy...
That’s it? !!!
Jie Laoyang was puzzled and shocked!
At this moment, he was already 80% sure that he could persuade Wuxie to go to Qinling Mountains with him to find the tree he had always longed for.
There is no way. Poverty is a very terrible disease. The most obvious symptom is that it makes people ignore dangers. When it comes to money, their IQ and vigilance drop significantly. Wuxie is very likely to be "terminally ill".
This food was only slightly better than what he had in the police station, but it was already the best food Wuxie could serve to entertain guests. Jie Laoyang simply couldn't imagine what kind of life Wuxie usually led.
In fact, Wuxie is not so poor that he can only entertain guests with instant noodles.
But he can't cook, so he can't buy groceries and cook them himself, or even have someone cook for him.
With this little money, if he goes to a big restaurant for a meal, his food expenses for this month will be gone. There are still a few days before his second uncle posts for him, and by then he will be left with nothing.
He had enough money to go to a small restaurant, but he didn't want to go out now. Besides, the food there might not be clean, and might not be as delicious as instant noodles. He felt it would be better to eat instant noodles at home.
At least the noodles you make yourself are clean (probably), and it saves time, effort, and money, and you can choose from a variety of flavors.
