When the man saw Wen Meijiu, he lowered his head and was about to leave. Wen Meijiu, who was walking towards him, felt it was strange and reached out to grab the man, but the man ran even faster.

"Hey, why are you running?"

She felt that the person looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was for a moment.

Hearing Wen Meijiu's shout, the young man standing opposite felt that something was wrong with this man, so he pounced on him and pinned him to the ground.

"You are a deceitful old widower. You are not a good person at first glance. You deliberately come to deceive people like us who can't even afford to eat at home. What is your intention?"

He pressed hard on the man, but the young man didn't let up at all and kept cursing him.

Wen Meijiu was still wondering who he was, but when he saw the boy catch the man, he ran over to see what was going on.

She suddenly lifted the Dongpo hat on the man's head, opened her eyes wide, and asked curiously:

"Uncle Wang, why are you here?"

Uncle Wang is the groom of Young Master Wang's mansion and also Buer's father. Wen Meijiu doesn't understand why he appears here and why he runs away when he sees her.

"Haha, it's Miss Wen, nice to meet you."

Uncle Wang was pinned down by the young man. When he saw Wen Meijiu, he bowed awkwardly and greeted her with a silly smile.

"Little brother, let him go quickly, he is one of us."

Wen Meijiu reached out to pull the young man who was pressing on Uncle Wang, but the young man was still a little unconvinced.

"Sister, how do you know this kind of person?"

"He's not a bad guy, let him get up first."

Wen Meijiu persuaded the young man to leave and pulled Uncle Wang up from the ground.

Wen Meijiu looked him up and down. Not to mention, he was dressed like that. If she hadn't found his back familiar, Wen Meijiu really wouldn't have recognized him.

"Uncle Wang, what are you doing?"

Wen Meijiu looked him up and down. He was wearing a cloak on the outside and a patched straight-leg gown on the inside. He also had a Dongpo scarf on his head. The overall combination looked a bit funny.

You say he is poor, poor people don’t wear this.

You could say he was dressed like a wealthy man, as his shirt and cloak had patches on them, which didn't fit the stereotype of a wealthy man.

Uncle Wang looked at Wen Meijiu looking at him, then he lowered his head to look at himself. After looking for a while, he sighed helplessly.

"Just bought it from two people."

Wen Meijiu immediately understood. No wonder the combination looked so awkward. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

At this time, Jin Xiang caught up with him, panting and leaning forward, saying:

"Sister, he just cried poor and tried to trick our father into giving him a letter.

Fortunately, you came back in time, otherwise my father would have been fooled."

Wen Meijiu just asked Uncle Wang why he was dressed like that, but Uncle Wang didn't tell him the reason, so he must have some unspeakable secret.

Uncle Wang is the groom of Young Master Wang's mansion. Young Master Wang is so mysterious, so it is not surprising that Uncle Wang behaves like this. As for whether her father was deceived, it is not convenient for her to explain to Jin Xiang in front of Uncle Wang.

"Jinxiang, it's okay, this is Uncle Wang."

Jin Xiang was stunned and looked Uncle Wang up and down several times, wondering how her elder sister could know such a person.

Uncle Wang came out, of course, to do things for Young Master Wang. Now that things have gone wrong, he can't stay here for long, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Young Master Wang.

"Miss Wen, I have something else to do here, so I'll take my leave now."

Uncle Wang bowed to Wen Meijiu, turned around and was about to leave, but Wen Meijiu called him from behind.

"That Uncle Wang, I just met Brother Bu Er, he is coming to my house for lunch at noon."

I met Master Wang and Uncle Wang on the street at the same time. They must have gone down the mountain together and should meet somewhere later.

Young Master Wang said he would go to her house for lunch at noon, so does Uncle Wang have to go there too?

It was almost noon now. Wen Meijiu was unsure and could not mention Prince Wang directly, so he mentioned Bu Er indirectly.

Bu Er is with Master Wang, so Uncle Wang should understand what she said.

Sure enough, Uncle Wang's back froze, then he turned around and walked back.

"Did he really say that?"

Wen Meijiu was afraid that Uncle Wang would not believe it, so he nodded seriously and said:

"Brother Fuji is looking at the exquisitely crafted carriage, right?"

This time Uncle Wang completely believed Wen Meijiu's words. When they parted, Young Master Wang said he wanted to go to the coffin shop to see how the custom-made carriage was going.

After standing there and thinking for a while, Uncle Wang felt that even if what Wen Meijiu said was true, he would still meet at the intersection of East Street as agreed beforehand. However, the task assigned to him by Young Master Wang had not been completed yet.

After taking a quick look at Wen's father lying on the ground against the wall, Uncle Wang had a new plan.

The young man wanted to write a letter and send it out, but his handwriting was easily recognizable, so he wanted to find someone to write it for him. This would be safer and would not expose his whereabouts because of the letter.

Uncle Wang readily agreed to this matter, but after looking around, he found that there were four men writing letters on the street. The first two were found to be men who had been setting up stalls here for a long time, and only the young man and Wen Meijiu's father were newcomers.

There were two gentlemen who had been setting up stalls here for a long time. One of them had someone playing chess with him, and the other was talking to a woman who was doing business next door. Based on the principle that the fewer people who knew about it, the better, Uncle Wang came over here.

He took a liking to Wen Meijiu's father at first sight. Although Wen Meijiu's father was a disabled person, he was older and had more experience. If there were some secrets, he could help polish them.

Of course, beforehand, Uncle Wang had never thought that this was Wen Meijiu’s father.

The young man opposite was too young, and Uncle Wang didn't like him at first, so he just passed by him. The young man took the initiative to solicit business and asked Uncle Wang a question. Uncle Wang also asked if he would write for him without money, but was rejected by the young man.

Just refuse if you want to, the young man kept staring at him, even a little jealous.

Uncle Wang thought that if he paid Wen Meijiu's father to write a letter, the young man would be so angry that he would die and would definitely hate him with gnashing teeth.

If someone comes to ask about the letter-writing in the future, won't the young man have to give him away to vent his anger?

To be on the safe side, Uncle Wang lied and said he wanted to inform his uncle of his death.

One is to test the character of Wen Meijiu's father, and the other is to make the young man feel more balanced after losing his business.

He thought that if Wen Meijiu's father agreed to help write the letter, he would secretly pay the money after it was done, or even give more, which would also shut him up.

Now that we know this is Wen Meijiu’s father, things will be much easier.

Wen Meijiu once served the young master. Since he dared to let her go, he must trust her.

Since he is trustworthy, I feel more at ease asking Wen Meijiu's father to help copy the letters.

Uncle Wang pulled Wen Meijiu aside, turned his back to her and whispered in her ear:

"Did the Master ask me to go with him?"
