Chapter 0048 Blue Bricks and Black Tiles
"Stop talking nonsense!" Wang Ruoyu was furious. "Our Wang family is looking for a son-in-law because I have an unlucky fate. What does it have to do with attracting wealth?"
At this time, a voice interrupted lazily, "Who is this kid who is talking nonsense? Miss Wang has an evil fate, which is extremely evil. If it is not resolved in time, the entire Wang family will be in danger!"
The one who spoke was the fat Master Wu who looked like a groundhog. He was twirling his moustache with his fingers and looked quite lazy.
Wang Ruoyu took a breath, calmed down a little, and said in a cold voice: "Several masters have calculated my fate, and they all gave the same result!"
I chuckled and said sarcastically, "It's not unfair to say that you're stupid. You've been sold and you're still counting money for others!"
Wang Ruoyu was furious when he heard this and started to curse, "You stinky boy, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Seeing that the time was almost right, I became serious and said, "Your fate is quite bad. You have the evil star of loneliness, but it's not that serious. At most, you have a bad temper, are a bit fierce, and have few romantic opportunities, so it's not easy to find a boyfriend!"
"What are you talking about, punishing your parents and your family? How can you be so capable?"
Wang Ruoyu was stunned by what I said, but the others present burst into laughter.
"Where did this brat come from? He's giving orders and talking big. He thinks he's a master!"
"That's right. He probably doesn't know who Master Wu is. How dare he show off his skills in front of Master Wu!"
"I think he's just here to make people laugh!"
…
I waited for them to finish laughing, then I calmly said, "If my sister-in-law really had a lonely evil spirit, you guys would have been killed long ago. How can you still talk nonsense here?"
"Fuck! How dare you curse us!" a young man yelled.
But no one else agreed with him, and Wang Ruoyu's face turned pale.
In fact, the logic here is very simple. If Wang Ruoyu's fate was really as bad as the Wang family said, and she was unlucky for her parents and relatives, then in the more than 20 years since she was born, several members of the Wang family should have been killed. How could they have waited until a few years ago to find a son-in-law to break the deadlock?
"Master Wu, what do you say?" Wang Ruoyu suddenly turned his head and looked at the fat man.
Fatty Wu's fair face turned slightly red, and he snorted coldly, "Miss Wang, I don't know where this wild boy came from, what can he know!"
"Daughter, you must not be rude to Master Wu. How can you believe other people's nonsense about this matter!" Wang Shounian also said with a gloomy face.
I smiled and said, "A few years ago, your Wang family was in debt and on the verge of bankruptcy. But after you recruited a live-in son-in-law, your Wang family suddenly changed its fortunes. In the following years, it has been thriving. Why is this happening?"
"If you still can't figure it out, then you are hopelessly stupid!"
Wang Ruoyu glared at me fiercely and asked her father Wang Shounian: "Dad, is what he said true?"
But Wang Shounian was stubborn and insisted that these were all coincidences and that this was absolutely not happening.
The other members of the Wang family also surrounded Wang Ruoyu, talking to her at once, and all of them urged her not to believe others who were trying to sow discord between them.
Seeing this, I said to Zhu Xiaomei, "Sister Xiaomei, there is nothing to talk to these people about. Let's go. "
"But..." Zhu Xiaomei was unwilling, and after I gave her a look, she kept silent.
When we came out of the Wang family villa, Zhu Xiaomei couldn't help asking, "Are we leaving just like this?"
I motioned to her to wait a moment. Not long after, I saw a person hurriedly coming out of the villa, looking around, and when he saw us still standing on the roadside, he walked over quickly.
"Where are you going, sister-in-law?" I greeted her with a smile.
The person who came was Wang Ruoyu. She glared at me fiercely and said, "If you keep yelling, I'll tear your mouth apart! Is what you just said true?"
I asked her back, "Did you drive?"
She was stunned: "Open, what for?"
"Then drive us to a place and you will know whether what I said is true or not," I said.
Wang Ruoyu looked at me and without further ado, took out his car key and pressed the key. Suddenly, the lights of a blue Porsche on the side of the road turned on.
The three of us got in the car, and I asked her to drive to the Wang family's old house in the west of the city.
"What are you going there for?" Wang Ruoyu asked.
Zhu Xiaomei also looked over.
"Not sure yet, let's go check it out first."
After I finished speaking, I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes.
In the afternoon, I visited a few antique shops and went to Wang's house with Zhu Xiaomei. After a lot of conversation, I actually felt a little tired, sleepy and weak, which had never happened before.
I started to study hard with my third grandfather when I was ten years old, and my basic skills were very solid. Let alone several trips like this, even after the repeated chases and fights in Wuliang Mountain, I would not be so sleepy.
Zhu Xiaomei probably noticed it too, and asked me with some concern: "You don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
I saw Wang Ruoyu glance at me in the rearview mirror and smiled and said, "Nothing happened. I just stayed up late and didn't sleep well."
The car headed west, and around nine o'clock in the evening, we finally found the place.
The Wang family's old house is said to be located in the west of the city, but in fact it is almost in the suburbs.
A large courtyard and two old houses with blue bricks and black tiles, which look quite shabby.
Unlike the He family, which has been a wealthy family for generations, the Wang family was just a small landlord in the early years and only became rich in recent decades.
The courtyard in front of us is the house where the Wang family lived before they became rich. Of course, no one lives there anymore, but it has been preserved to prove that they have not forgotten their roots.
Several plots of land nearby have been bought by the Wang family. There are not many houses around, and it looks pitch black.
Wang Ruoyu parked the car on the side of the road, and the three of us walked to the old house.
"Ah, why is there a light?" Zhu Xiaomei screamed.
Through the rusty courtyard gate, a faint yellow light was emitted from the old house inside.
"Don't make a fuss. Our family has hired someone to look after the old house." Wang Ruoyu said unhappily.
She immediately patted the door and shouted, "Is anyone there? Open the door, I'm from the Wang family!"
The area was very quiet, and her voice was very clear in the night and could be heard from far away.
After calling out several times, I heard a creaking sound, and the door of a room was opened, with a light on inside.
"Who is it?" asked an old voice.
Wang Ruoyu said she was the daughter of the Wang family and came to see the old house.
"etc."
After a while, a figure came out of the house, holding a lantern in his hand. He walked slowly into the yard and asked a few more questions. After confirming that we were from the Wang family, he quietly unlocked the door.
