Who would marry into the family after being reborn?.

Chapter 69: Earn money and make friends, lure the thief into the trap

When the old man heard this, he thought the girl was a smart person.

Not only did he understand his good intentions, but he also knew to call for help.

Wu Xiuchun called the gatekeeper of the meat processing factory.

This was the first emergency number her second brother Wu Wei left for her. If this number couldn't be reached, she would have to call the second emergency number and go to the canteen in the family quarters.

Fortunately, as soon as the call was connected, the guard of the meat processing factory responded immediately: "Master Wu is here, I will go and call him for you."

Wu Xiuchun breathed a sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and gave a look of gratitude to the two old cadres who had not left yet.

After a while, Xiuchun called the security guard again.

The phone was picked up immediately, and Wu Wei couldn't wait to ask: "Third sister, what happened?"

Xiuchun didn't say much: "Second brother, I'm on East Street, and I just sold the stool. Are you free to pick me up?"

This silly girl, at this time, still asking if I am free.

Even if the sky falls, I have to put my third sister first.

"Just stay where you are, I'll be there soon."

After Wu Wei hung up the phone, he didn't even go back to the factory site. He went straight to the carport, pushed the 28-inch bicycle, and headed for East Street.

He knew exactly where Xiuchun's stall was.

So in a short while, he and his car arrived in front of the stall.

But the stall had already been occupied by someone else, and Wu Wei was looking around.

Then he saw Xiuchun standing next to the public telephone, waving at him: "Second brother, second brother, I'm here!"

Wu Wei rushed over, grabbed Xiuchun, looked her up and down and asked, "Are you okay?"

With Wu Wei by her side, Xiuchun felt relieved and the feeling of being on edge disappeared.

He bowed to the old man next to him and said, "Thank you, old man."

Only then did Wu Wei notice the old cadre and his daughter. He reached out for a cigarette and was about to walk over to them to show his friendliness.

The veteran cadre actually wanted to take it.

After all, since he retired, no one has offered him cigarettes for a while.

This feeling is so long-lost and wonderful.

Suddenly, his daughter interrupted him and said, "My dad doesn't smoke!"

Wu Wei quickly put away his cigarette, not even smoking himself, and just thanked them: "Thank you for protecting my third sister."

The old cadre looked around and didn't see the man, so he took the opportunity to say, "Young man, you should have other Huanghuali furniture at home, right? Can you take me to have a look?"

Wu Wei subconsciously wanted to refuse.

After all, the threat from the third sister has not been resolved yet, but he let the wolf into the house.

Isn't this just looking for trouble?

But on second thought, there is no such thing as a thief on guard against thieves for a thousand days.

If possible, it is not impossible to lure the wolf into the house and catch the turtle in the jar.

What's more, the old cadre and his daughter, who had just helped their sister, were really obsessed with antique furniture.

It’s really hard to refuse.

"Then please follow me, both of you."

On the way back to the courtyard on Bayi Road, Wu Wei kept his attention while walking.

Occasionally, I have to deal with the words of old cadres.

There was indeed no sign of anyone following us.

After opening the door of the courtyard, Wu Wei turned around and locked it, and even took a special look back.

It's like a joint.

Still not found.

When he returned to the yard, the old cadre was already touching the eight-immortals table hanging in the yard and looking at it carefully.

You can tell from the concentration that he really likes it.

Only his daughter was standing beside him with an impatient look on her face.

Xiuchun counted out the money and stuffed it directly into Wu Wei's pocket, saying, "Give it to Qiaoqiao in the evening."

Wu Wei picked out a hundred yuan and stuffed it into the third sister's pocket, saying, "This is for you. Don't go out to sell things for the next few days." Xiuchun was puzzled: "Why?"

But as soon as she said it, she understood.

Even so, he still stuffed the ten big unity notes back and said, "I can make money myself."

The old cadre on the other side watched for a long time, finally straightened up, held on to the round table, and gasped for breath from exhaustion.

"Young man, did you also repair this table?"

Wu Wei nodded: "Nothing can be hidden from your discerning eyes."

"Not bad craftsmanship!" The old cadre praised, patted the table and said, "I want this table too. Name your price."

Wu Wei said generously: "You know what you are talking about. Just name a price and I will never bargain."

"One price, 4000 yuan. I want it."

The old cadres are really generous.

As a result, the daughter said, "Dad, I don't have that much money."

The old cadre glared at him and said, "Good things are hard to come by. You don't have any money, can't you ask someone to bring it to you?"

"Besides, such a big eight-immortal table, don't we need to find someone to carry it back?"

Wu Wei immediately made the decision: "You have a good eye. I'll take your price."

The middle-aged woman went out angrily to make a phone call.

At this time, the old cadre took the opportunity to get close to Wu Wei and pinched his fingers at him.

Wu Wei immediately understood what he meant and offered a Yipinmei tea to the old cadre, and also lit one for him.

The old cadre took a deep breath, exhaled a long puff of smoke and said, "Young man, what's your name?"

Wu Wei quickly said, "My last name is Wu Wei. May I ask your name? I think you look familiar."

The old cadre nodded at Wu Wei, but did not say anything: "My last name is Zhong. You may have seen me in the newspaper before, but now I have retired to the second line. This is the only fun thing left."

Wu Wei's heart moved. He actually remembered an old cadre in the county named Zhong.

Could it be the recently retired high-ranking county official, Secretary Zhong Xian?
Even if he retires, he should still be supported by the Municipal People's Congress in his retirement.

Where do you find the time to tinker with antique furniture?
However, Wu Wei did not ask further questions about this issue, but said respectfully: "Old Secretary, I remember it now."

But Mr. Zhong just put down his hand and said, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."

Seeing that his cigarette was finished, Wu Wei quickly took out a refill.

But then I heard hurried footsteps coming from the door.

Mr. Zhong immediately acted like a thief, fanning everywhere to disperse the smoke, but his attempt to cover up the truth only made it more obvious.

Even so, it is of no avail.

When Zhong Ying, the daughter of Mr. Zhong, came back, she smelled it and asked, "Dad, did you smoke?"

Wu Wei immediately stepped forward and said, "Mr. Zhong didn't smoke. I was addicted to cigarettes, so I smoked."

Zhong Ying glanced at Wu Wei, then looked at her old father.

He snorted softly and said, "Wait."

Unfortunately, there is no place to sit at home. The only two stools have just been bought by Mr. Zhong.

Wu Wei could only point at the two wooden stools and say, "You two sit down and wait."

Within half an hour, a man who looked like a secretary, with a bag under his arm, came to the door.

As soon as he saw Mr. Zhong sitting in the yard with his arms and legs spread, he came in immediately.

Zhong Ying took the handbag from the secretary and counted out 4000 yuan, which took her a long time to do.

He handed it to Wu Wei: "Here."

Wu Wei took it and put it in his pocket without counting.

Then a man who looked like a driver came in from outside the door and, together with the secretary, carried the round table away.

The brother and sister went out and saw a jeep parked at the door.
