The Age of Rebirth: The Cannon Fodder Elder Sister Brings a Sister to Counterattack

Mrs. Wu went to bed after applying the cream, leaning against the wall and said, "Sister Yu told me today that her aunt's house had a copper stove that was an antique, and it sold for 50,000 yuan. His aunt's two sons divided the money, and turned around and went to see it." Buy land and build a house."

"Sister Yu said that her aunt put the copper stove on the long table in the living room, and she could see it when she entered the door. She was very emotional and said that she didn't know that such an insignificant thing was worth a lot of money."

Brother Wu put away the newspaper in his hand, turned to look at Aunt Wu and asked, "Then how did her aunt find out that the incense burner is an antique?"

Mrs. Wu said with a smile: "It was her cousin who brought a friend to play at home. The man saw this copper stove and wanted to buy it, and he offered 1,000 yuan. Ms. Yu and Auntie wanted to sell it, but his little uncle grew up. My heart said that this is an ancestral thing and cannot be sold."

"Her little uncle asked relatives to find an expert, and it was identified as an antique from the Ming Dynasty, or something from the royal family."

Brother Wu thinks that Aunt Yu and Ms. Yu's family are also very lucky, a censer sold for so much money.

Sister-in-law Wu said casually: "Oh, it would be great if my parents collected an antique or something back then. Sell it and exchange it for money, so we don't have to worry about money anymore."

Brother Wu laughed, and said, "My parents don't know anything about antiques, and they were old/four/old back then, so I didn't dare to keep these things at home."

That's all that Mrs. Wu said, she didn't expect her in-law's family to have any good things.

After turning off the lights, the husband and wife lay down.

Just as Mrs. Wu was about to fall asleep, Brother Wu suddenly sat up.

Mrs. Wu was so frightened that she clutched her chest and said, "What are you doing? It will scare people to death."

Brother Wu said: "I remember when I was young, there was a picture of a tiger descending the mountain in my father's room. Later, my father's friends said that this painting was made by a famous artist. After that, I never saw this painting again."

Sister-in-law Wu lost all sleepiness in an instant, and said, "Hand of a famous artist? That must be an antique too. Zhengrong, where is that painting now?"

Brother Wu said: "Dad likes that painting very much. He must be reluctant to destroy it. It should be put away."

Mrs. Wu urged: "Hurry up and call Dad, where is this painting?"

Brother Wu was also very excited and got up to make a phone call. But when he picked up the phone, Mrs. Wu stopped him.

Sister-in-law Wu said: "If we ask Dad that, that woman will definitely become alert. In this way, let's take Wu Bo back tomorrow."

"also."

Three days later, Father Wu was shocked when he saw Brother Wu's family of three: "Why are you here?"

As soon as Wu Bo saw Father Wu, he rushed up and hugged his arm: "Grandpa, I miss you."

During the years when Wu's mother was ill, the old couple lived next to each other, and he was responsible for picking them up on weekdays. The same is true, the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is still very deep.

Mrs. Wu said enthusiastically, "Dad, Xiaobo said he missed you, so we brought them here."

Father Wu is not stupid, he knows it must not be that simple. After welcoming them into the house, sit down and ask what's the matter.

Mrs. Wu asked, "Dad, where is that woman?"

"Your Auntie Du went shopping with someone. There are no outsiders at home, so if you have anything to say, don't beat around the bush."

Only then did Brother Wu ask about the painting.

Father Wu didn't think much of it, saying that the painting was sold.

Mrs. Wu's complexion changed drastically. Whoever acted so quickly, the first person she suspected was Du Meilian.

Brother Wu's heart sank, and he asked, "Dad, when did you sell it? Who did you sell it to?"

Father Wu didn't hide it either, there was no need for it: "The year your mother had the operation, she sold it. At that time, the operation fee was still more than two thousand. Zhengqing borrowed money from a friend, so that your mother had the operation in time. As I said, the operation He didn’t need to pay for the fee, so let him take the painting and sell it, and the money from the sale can be used to pay off the debt.”

"How much did you sell for?"

"I sold it for 3,000 yuan, and gave Zhengqing 2,000 yuan to pay off the debt, and he remitted the rest to me. At that time, I didn't have any money on hand, so I used it to make up for your mother's health."

Mrs. Wu's heart ached: "Why did you sell it? Why did you sell it?"

And it only sells for 3,000 yuan. She heard that famous calligraphy and paintings are very valuable, and they must sell for more than 30,000 now.

Father Wu glared, and said, "If you don't want to pay for the operation, I can only sell the paintings. Otherwise, do you want me to borrow money by licking my old face? If my old friend knows, the three sons will be born together. I can't even get together the thousands of medical expenses, where should I put my face?"

Brother Wu apologized with a smile, and then asked, "Dad, besides this painting, do we have any other old objects in our house?"

Father Wu shook his head and said, "No."

Sister-in-law Wu did not give up: "Dad, think about it carefully. Maybe there is, but you don't remember."

"No, if you don't believe it, look for it at home."

To Wu's father's surprise, Mrs. Wu really found her at home.

Father Wu was so angry that he couldn't breathe smoothly.

Brother Wu saw that Father Wu had something good or bad, so he quickly grabbed sister-in-law Wu and prevented her from turning over again.

Because the couple didn't get what they wanted, they took the train back the next day.

Sister-in-law Wu still didn't give up, so she called Wu Zhengqing after asking someone to inquire about it.

Wu Zhengqing's heart skipped a beat. It was exactly as the aunt had expected. After knowing about it, his elder brother and sister-in-law came to ask: "Yes, I sold the painting five years ago, and I found a friend to sell it through a line."

Mrs. Wu said, "Zhengqing, that painting was painted by a famous artist. Even five years ago, it cost more than three thousand yuan."

What's the meaning? He thought he was greedy for money from selling paintings. He used to respect Mrs. Wu quite a bit, but ever since she refused to let Mother Wu live at home after the surgery, Wu Zhengqing understood. This sister-in-law also did a good job on the surface, and when it was her turn to contribute money and effort, she pushed back and forth.

Wu Zhengqing said: "I have a receipt and a remittance slip here. If my sister-in-law doesn't believe it, I can make a copy and send it to you."

"Zhengqing, you misunderstood, I didn't mean that..."

Wu Zhengqing didn't want to hear her say it anymore: "If you still don't believe me, you can come to Yangcheng and I can show you the original copy. Well, I'm quite busy here, so I won't talk about it."

Before Mrs. Wu could reply, he hung up the phone. That afternoon, Wu Zhengrong called him to apologize.

Wu Zhengrong said: "Zhengqing, I'm sorry, your sister-in-law recently heard that someone else's incense burner was sold for 50,000 yuan, and then kept talking about our painting, like a madman."

He was actually very sorry, if the painting hadn't been sold, it would have sold at least 100,000 yuan now. If I had known at the time, I would not have listened to my wife's nagging, and had collected all the medical expenses. Alas, money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier!

Half a month later, Wu Zhengqing was dealing with a case. Hearing Father Wu came over, he was puzzled.

Welcoming him into the house, Wu Zhengqing poured a glass of water and handed it to him and asked, "Dad, are you bringing that woman to play again?"

"No, I came alone."

Wu Zhengqing frowned and said, "At your age, you are running around alone, what if something happens to you?"

Father Wu didn't answer him, but put the black bag in his hand on his desk, and carefully took out the contents. There are three things in total, wrapped tightly.

After unraveling layer by layer, the true contents of the things were revealed, a flower pot, a teapot, and a large colorful bowl.

Wu Zhengqing's face was very ugly: "Dad, where did you get these things?"

Father Wu said: "Where can it come from? Of course it was bought from someone else. You can find someone to identify it and see if it is real?"

Wu Zhengqing felt that he was too unreliable, and said, "Now the so-called antiques sold at the stalls outside are all fake. Dad, you must have been cheated."

Father Wu said angrily, "I didn't buy it from a peddler. I bought it from a friend or relative. It cost me 3,000 yuan."

"Aren't you an expert you know? You can ask him to help me identify it and see if it is true?"

Wu Zhengqing thought it was a fake, but was urged by Wu's father all the time, and finally had no choice but to take him to find that expert.

What turned out to be unexpected was that after the appraisal, these three things were all true, and Wu Zhengqing was dumbfounded. His dad was lucky too.

Father Wu asked: "Master, can you give me an estimate for these three things?"

"Do you want to sell?"

"Well, it's going to be sold."

The old master smiled and said: "If you really want to sell, I can help you contact the buyer. As for how much to sell, you can discuss it yourself."

"Then how much do you think you can sell it for?"

The old master thought for a while and said, "The three items together should sell for about 50,000 yuan."

I bought it for 3,000 yuan, and sold it for more than ten times, what a huge profit!

Wu Zhengqing disagreed with the sale, and took him and his belongings back to the house where he lived.

In the third year since he came here, the institute allocated a house to him, with one room and one living room of more than fifty square meters, although small, it was enough to live in.

After closing the door, Wu Zhengqing said, "Father, antiques will become more and more valuable in the future. After ten years, these three items will cost more than 500,000 yuan."

Sanya said that if the calligraphy and painting were sold in Hong Kong, they could sell for at least 500,000 yuan. Fortunately, he left it for Miao Miao as a dowry, so if he sold it, he would regret it to death.

Father Wu said: "Zhengqing, I want to sell these three things and buy two houses near Tianxiu's house."

"Why did you buy two houses next to Xiu'er?"

"The house is in your name."

"Buy me?"

Father Wu nodded and said, "Yes, I bought it for you, but I can live in it when I'm sick and unable to move."

Wu Zhengqing's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked, "Dad, what happened?"

Father Wu waved his hand and said, "Nothing happened. Your eldest brother and your sister-in-law are unreliable, and your second brother brought a child to live in the army, and now you can't count on him. When I get too old and can't move, I can only count on you."

Wu Zhengqing's expression was ugly, and he asked, "Dad, what did that woman do?"

Father Wu said calmly: "She didn't do anything, she just tried every means to ask me for money. But we each get what we need, and there is nothing to blame."

"Then what did you mean by what you just said?"

Father Wu didn't hide it from him, and said: "I went to visit your Uncle Chen a few days ago, and accidentally found a bruise on his arm. He said that he accidentally knocked on the side of the bed and injured it. I can't tell the difference."

"Who pinched it?"

"Who else, it must be his wife."

Wu Zhengqing knew that Uncle Chen had fallen out with his previous children because of his current wife.

Immediately Wu Zhengqing understood, and he said, "Are you afraid of following Uncle Chen's footsteps in the future?"

Father Wu did not deny that at this age, he was afraid that no one would care about him when he was old: "I go out to play now, but she doesn't let me go. She said that there will be a lot of places where I will use a lot of money in the future, so I need to save money."

The problem is that he can pay for all the medical treatment, and his three sons are doing well, so he doesn't need to worry about it, and he doesn't need to save money at all. The so-called saving money is for her son and daughter.

Half of his pension is enough for the expenses of four people, but what Du Meilian wants is not only food and clothing, but also wants to save a dowry for his daughter and a dowry for his son.

Wu Zhengqing glanced at him, and said sarcastically, "Dad, isn't this what was expected? They don't want money, so they still want you?"

Father Wu was silent, and said: "I'm in good health now, so I don't worry about it. I'm just afraid that, like Uncle Chen, I can't walk and can only lie on the bed. The people who have to serve me don't want to abuse me, so I might as well die early! "

Wu Zhengqing understood what he meant, but he didn't respond: "Dad, don't worry, if she doesn't take good care of you, we will definitely not spare her."

"If you don't pick me up and scold him, then I will be the one to suffer."

Father Wu said: "I know, you can't make a decision on this matter. You should discuss it with your wife first, and then restore it to me."

Wu Zhengqing refused to admit this, and said, "Dad, don't talk nonsense, you haven't remarried yet!"

Father Wu looked at him, and didn't continue talking about it: "I'll go back tomorrow, if asked, don't say I've been here."

"Dad, are you so afraid of that woman?"

Father Wu shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid of her, but I'm afraid that your sister-in-law will find out, and then there will be chaos."

Seeing him like this, Wu Zhengqing felt uncomfortable. That night he didn't sleep because he thought about it.

The next morning, Wu Zhengqing sent Wu's father to the train station. While waiting for the train, Wu Zhengqing said: "If you really lie in bed and are abused by others in the future, I will definitely pick you up and take care of you. But the premise is that you must break away from that woman and give me your pension, otherwise I don't care."

The so-called separation from the relationship naturally refers to divorce. Otherwise, the pension will be held by that woman and he will take care of it, so he won't be taken advantage of.

Father Wu felt relieved: "Okay."

That night, Wu Zhengqing called Sanya and told Sanya about it.

"Is he expecting you to take care of himself?"

Wu Zhengqing hurriedly corrected her statement: "Xiu'er, my dad has a high pension, so it's no problem to hire two nannies to take care of him; besides, we don't have to pay for illness, and he can cover all the medical expenses."

"Xiu'er, he is just afraid that if he can't move, the woman will leave him alone. If he hires a nanny, he may abuse her if no one is watching. He wants to live next to me. I go to see him several times a day, and the nanny won't Dare to think badly."

Sanya just thought it was ridiculous: "Since you are so worried, why bother to marry again?"

Wu Zhengqing said: "He thought that woman was a good person, but he didn't expect that she was just pretending."

Sanya couldn't help sneering. It was not a good idea to go on a blind date with Wu's father so soon after Wu's mother died. If he is kind, he will never look down on a man whose wife has left behind and wants to marry again.
