Chapter 547: The Old Wei Family’s Double Insurance and Romanee-Conti



"Uncle, this is the Guangxu official kiln. The client bought it at an auction and had it appraised by a professional. It's a good item."

"Auntie, didn't you say you had insomnia recently? This is the jade Buddha I bought from Kaifu Temple when I went to Hunan Province. I heard it's very spiritual and can calm the mind."

It was not until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month that Zhao Liying finished her work and returned to the Magic City. As soon as she arrived at Yunhua Mansion, she opened the New Year gifts for Wang Yunping and his wife.

"Good boy, you are not a stranger, why do you still buy things, spend money and worry."

Wang Yunping had long been under Zhao Liying's control. She was happy to see her, not to mention such a thoughtful gift. She held on to it and wouldn't let go.

Zhao Liying also hugged her affectionately: "Look at what you said, you are so good to me, shouldn't I respect you? Besides, my mother called me and said that you sent a lot of New Year's goods to our family, and I didn't say anything polite to you, why are you being polite to me?"

"Work hard, we are a family, no need to be polite, come and bring it to Auntie, I will post it on WeChat Moments."

Wang Yunping was happily wearing the jade Buddha, and Zhao Liying cooperated by finding angles to take pictures of her. Wei Shan stared at the official kiln and couldn't pull his eyes away.

Only Wei Yang was standing alone: ​​"No, there is no gift for me?"

"We're together every day, what gift do you want?"

Wang Yunping waved her hand to send her son away, and still wanted to take a photo with Zhao Liying. However, such a photo could not be posted on WeChat Moments, or Zhao Liying's face could be covered with a pattern to prevent someone from posting it online.

"We need gifts when we are together. Life should have a sense of ritual."

Wei Yang was unhappy. He said, "I either have nothing or I am left alone. What's the use of it?" Zhao Liying watched him throwing a tantrum with a smile. After the fun was over, she took out a small box from her bag.

"Don't worry, I won't forget you."

Wei Yang opened it and saw that it was a rosewood bracelet with a wooden Buddha amulet tied on it. Zhao Liying introduced it to him.

"I bought the bracelet, but I went to the temple to have it blessed. I can wear it or keep it at home."

"Why do you suddenly like this?"

"Pray for blessings, just in case it helps."

Zhao Liying is not superstitious, but she doesn't reject it either. After hearing her friend recommend it, she tried it. The main reason is that it has a good meaning and it is decent as a gift.

Wei Yang nodded. On this point, his attitude was very similar to Zhao Liying's. He did not support it, but he did not oppose it either.

It is better to believe it exists than not to believe it exists! It is not a big deal to worship it at ordinary times, just think of it as a wish for good luck and peace of mind.

Wang Yunping was quite impressed by this and told Wei Yang to keep the bracelet well and not to damage it so as not to ruin his fortune. She also said that she would go to Lingyin Temple to pay her respects when she had time.

There are also local temples in Shanghai, such as Jing'an Temple and Jade Buddha Temple, as well as Taoist temples such as City God Temple and Baiyun Temple.

Wang Yingping was not bound by Buddhism or Taoism and was very practical. He would worship any god he saw and worship more often to whoever he thought was spiritual. He could switch between Amitabha Buddha and Wuliang Tianzun very smoothly.

However, she still believed in Lingyin Temple the most, mainly because it was famous and popular. Putuo Mountain was also an option, but it was a little far away.

Comrade Lao Wei is better in this regard. He does not worship gods, but he worships his own ancestors. He goes back to his hometown to visit the graves at least once a year without fail.

In this way, the Wei family has double insurance, with the support of the ancestors below and the support of the Buddhist and Taoist gods above.

But in this regard, Wei Yang's family is just joining in the fun, and something is better than nothing.

The wealthy people in Guangdong and Fujian build all kinds of ancestral halls to worship their ancestors, and that's a grand scene.

Wei Yang also heard about a big boss who built his own temple and hired a bunch of monks to pray for him and his family. Boss Wei didn't know whether he was devout or he was afraid of retribution because he had done too many evil things.

"Look at Liying. She even bought us gifts, but your own son didn't do anything."

After Wang Yunping admired the gift from her daughter-in-law, she started to criticize her son. Boss Wei felt so aggrieved.

"Mom, this is so heartless."

"When I buy something for my family, you always scold me, saying I'm a spendthrift and don't know how to show off my money."

"Now you think I'm not filial. How come you're always right?"

Wang Yunping said confidently: "I am your mother, so what if I am right?"

"Okay, okay, I can't win against you."

Wei Yang begged for mercy and took out two bank cards from his wallet: "We have everything at home, and you keep nagging me about what to buy. I'll just stop bothering you. Each of us has 5 million yuan, so we can buy whatever we want."

Wei Shan was delighted. Just as he was about to reach out to take the cards, Wang Yunping slapped his hand. Then the two cards were snatched away, and the financial power was forcibly seized.

"The child honors me."

Comrade Lao Wei wanted to argue, but Wang Yunping glared at him:

"What do you need so much money for? You're buying bottles and junk. I'll keep it for you. Ask me for it when you need it."

"That's...very strenuous."

Wang Yunping is now very wealthy, and if he wants money, he has to have a good reason, and he is prone to being nagged.

In contrast, Lao Wei naturally wants to keep the money and spend it however he wants.

Wei Yang pretended not to see the confrontation between the old couple. In fact, he knew that his mother was not afraid that Wei would spend money recklessly, but that there were too many temptations for men with money, so she had to keep an eye on them.

In this regard, she should have received the support of her eldest aunt Wei Xia, who has been sister-in-law to Wang Yunping for decades and has a very good relationship. She also doesn't want to have another illegitimate brother-in-law for no reason.

Originally, Wei Yang was secretly supporting his father's escrow, but was later discovered and stopped by his aunt and mother.

Boss Wei had no choice. After all, it was also his father's fault for being dishonest. If he had always behaved himself and never overstepped the line, he would not have been punished so badly.

But at least Comrade Lao Wei has no shortage of money as long as he is honest. His uncle is even worse off. Sometimes he doesn't even have money to buy cigarettes.

Every time Lao Wei was in a bad mood, he would go to his brother-in-law to drink, and listen to his uncle's miserable life, and his mood would immediately improve a lot...

Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.

The doorbell rang, the housekeeper went to open the door, and then brought my aunt and her family back.

There is no twenty-ninth day this year. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. According to the usual practice, my aunt and her family will come to Wei Yang's house to celebrate the New Year. Even though this year is considered late, if my aunt hadn't been busy with the restaurant, they would have come a long time ago.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

My cousin interacts with Zhao Liying the most and is the most attached to her sister-in-law. She won't let go of her once they meet and even asked for her to sign stills from the movie "Strategy of the Ming Palace" to give to her roommates in college.

The cousin is now a college student, but his grades are not as good as his cousin's. Wei Yang found someone and spent money to get him into an undergraduate school.

Compared to the cousin who is still noisy, the cousin is now calmer and more reserved than when he was a child. He also wears glasses and looks much more gentle.

"My mom told me that you found a girlfriend?"

Seeing that his cousin kept looking at He Tianxia who was entertaining his uncle at the table, Wei Yang took up a cigarette and handed it to him. The latter put it in his mouth skillfully, then remembered where it was, and quickly took it down again, saying with a red face and a deflated stomach.

"No, they are all friends. My mom and aunt are just guessing."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We're in college now, and this isn't puppy love. Just keep talking about it."

Wei Yang smiled and shook his head. His eldest aunt was quite strong-willed, and perhaps because she saw that her nephew was too romantic, she was quite strict with her children. His cousin was also a bit timid, so he never dared to fall in love too early.

In fact, the child is good-looking. Wei Yang is so handsome, so the Wei family’s genes are naturally very strong.

Especially my cousin, she has a good foundation and knows how to dress up, so she is qualified to be an artist in Coral Entertainment. My cousin is a little worse, but he is also a handsome boy. If he is more confident, he may be able to compete for the school hunk.

He is handsome, has a good temper, his family gives him a lot of living expenses, and he can occasionally get some gold coins from his cousin. It is easy for such a boy to find a partner in college.

The cousin was a little embarrassed by Wei Yang's questioning. How could a young man like him withstand the questioning of an experienced person like Wei Yang? He could only blush and shift the blame to others.

"Brother, it seems my sister has someone she likes too."

"What?!"

Wei Yang's face changed. As mentioned before, because he is the only son, he has been close to his eldest aunt's family since he was a child. Although they are cousins ​​in name, they are actually treated as his biological brothers and sisters.

If your younger brother takes away the cabbage from someone else's family, the older brother will definitely be happy.

But Boss Wei couldn't laugh anymore when his own cabbages were eaten by other people's pigs.

"When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier? What if someone cheated you?"

Wei Yang was so angry that he hit his cousin on the head. How could a brother not have any vigilance at all?

My cousin covered his head and said aggrievedly: "She wouldn't let me say it, and the two of them seem to be fine now. The man didn't like her."

"That's good."

Wei Yang breathed a sigh of relief, but then he felt a little unhappy. He didn't like her? Why did he not like my sister, Wei Yang?

She has a pretty face and a decent figure. Although her education is not from a 985 or 211 university, she is from a first-tier university and has a good family background. She also has a rich brother who is a high-ranking official in Beijing or sells oil. How could she be so arrogant? Wei Yang did not alarm the elders and asked his cousin and Zhao Liying to go upstairs to question them.

Hearing this, Zhao Liying was not surprised at all. Wei Yang suddenly realized that the two of them were in contact frequently, and if his cousin had some troubles that she wanted to talk to her family about but couldn't tell her mother and aunt, this sister-in-law who was so good to her would become the first choice.

Wei Yang felt relieved when he thought of this. Since Zhao Liying didn't tell him, it meant that the problem was not serious, otherwise the latter would never have hidden it from him.

At this time, the cousin was furious because of her cousin's betrayal. She chased him madly with a pillow, vowing to knock the traitor to the ground.

"What's going on?"

Wei Yang looked at Zhao Liying. Just as she was about to speak, her cousin rushed over and pleaded pitifully, "Sister-in-law, you promised me not to tell."

Zhao Liying could only respond to Wei Yang with a helpless expression, but Boss Wei looked at her smiling eyes and had an idea.

"That guy shouldn't be G."

Zhao Liying couldn't hold back her smile this time, while her cousin looked desperate and her cousin was extremely shocked.

Wei Yang was so amused when he saw that he had guessed correctly that he said his cousin's conditions were so good that the possibility of being rejected was really low.

If it is a sincere refusal, there are only a few reasons.

For example, if someone has a girlfriend, but your cousin probably won’t ask around and find out, or maybe she is not interested in girls, this is more private, and if it is kept secret, maybe only the person involved knows about it.

After all, Wei Yang had been reborn and was knowledgeable. After a little thought, he guessed the reason. He could only sigh that his cousin was unlucky. She had finally changed her mind, but ended up changing the wrong person.

"Brother, you must keep this secret for me. I can't afford to lose face like this."

The cousin begged desperately, and Wei Yang nodded in agreement. He was not a person who liked to gossip, but his cousin was different. He often betrayed his cousin.

So my cousin went aside to negotiate.

Wei Yang was lying on the bed, thinking about his previous state of mind and sighing: "I used to think it was better to have a daughter, because she was cute and pretty, but now I think it's better to have a son, because at least I don't have to worry about him being kidnapped."

"yes."

Zhao Liying nodded and said in a sad tone: "If I run into a scumbag who has multiple girlfriends at the same time, I will be so angry that I will die."

Wei Yang: “…”

Who do you choose?

However, to be honest, if he met a son-in-law like himself, he would either skin him alive or break his legs.

But the key point is that he is now a son-in-law, not a father-in-law, so he thinks he should be tolerant and treat others with kindness...

Zhao Liying did not go home for the New Year this year, mainly because she had to start working in Shanghai on the second day of the Chinese New Year.

However, after the Lantern Festival, she should be able to make some time to go home and visit her parents.

After filming "Strategy of the Ming Palace", Zhao Liying can take a short break. Not only can she visit her parents, but she may even be able to take them out for some fun.

Strictly speaking, this should be the first time Zhao Liying celebrated the New Year at Wei Yang's home.

In previous years, Zhao Liying would usually rush back to Langshi and never spent New Year's Eve with Wei Yang.

However, he sometimes left late and sometimes came early, and participated in many of the Wei family's Spring Festivals. He also spent the Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival together several times. The whole family did not feel strange or solemn and accepted this situation calmly.

Even the eldest aunt, who always had some complaints about Zhao Liying, didn't say much, but just asked Wei Yang and Liu Shishi privately.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Wei Yang and Zhao Liying played cards with their mother and aunt, a real game of three mothers teaching their children.

Two are my biological mothers and are comparable to my biological mothers, and one is my daughter-in-law!

So Wei Yang just paid the money that night, and Zhao Liying also gave some cards to Wang Yunping and her aunt from time to time.

In the end, the two sisters won with great joy, and even their cousins ​​who served them tea and water received four to five thousand yuan in tips each.

The next day, Zhao Liying took her family shopping, while Wei Yang stayed at home to deal with New Year's greetings. As for the greetings he should make, they had already been taken care of before the New Year.

When the group came back in the evening, my cousin came over excitedly with her cell phone in her hand.

"Brother, you are on the trending search."

"Is this something rare?"

Wei Yang was very disdainful. He couldn't even count the number of hot searches he had throughout the year. Other stars would love to have them, but he was fed up with it.

"Then tell us, is Romanee-Conti delicious?"

"What Romanee-Conti?"

Wei Yang was stunned, took the phone and saw that it was a hot search for the movie "The Mermaid" which was released today.

The producer was interviewed and talked about gossip, saying that many expensive props of the crew were provided by private individuals. Among them, he mentioned the bottle of Romanee-Conti worth one million yuan, which was the collection of a producer and was later bought by another big boss.

At that time, many people in the comment section gossiped about who the boss was, and soon an insider anonymously revealed that the person who bought the wine was Boss Wei.

"Brother, have you drunk this wine? What does it taste like?"

"No, this wine is not for drinking. It is for collection and value preservation. I put it in a friend's winery."

Wei Yang said casually, "I'm kidding. He could say that the bottle of wine was opened by that bitch Fan Xiaopang, and the two of them had some fun with it. If he turned around, Zhao Liying would surely kill him."

So this wine must have been collected and cannot be taken out.

Damn, I have to buy another bottle later to prevent the truth from being exposed. Okay, I'll buy a few more bottles.

The million-dollar red wine brings different feelings and excitement to people. Fat Fan was particularly cooperative that day. I can try with other people later...
