Chapter XII
Unexpectedly, after Third Uncle Mo Junyi left, Second Uncle Mo Junhua's family also came to visit.
Because Mo Zihan was discharged from the hospital yesterday, the news of her memory loss spread. So today, the few uncles had all brought things to visit. Mo Junbao was very satisfied, whether it was for show or for sincerity. He felt that his weight in this family was not light.
"If it weren't for your father, would they remember you and your mother? How dare you not take your father seriously! I'll give you guts! Your father is not old yet! Get your wings up first!" When Wang Fengying received Mo Junhua's call, Mo Junbao muttered to Mo Zihan unwillingly.
Mo Zihan ignored him and helped Wang Fengying move the round table into the courtyard.
"Zihan, go to Aunt Wang's house next door and ask for our four chairs back. He had already borrowed it for three days. Why didn't he know how to return it?”Wang Fengying set up the tables and chairs and began to cook in the courtyard.
In fact, because Mo Junbao went out to drink all day, he didn't eat at home at all. Therefore, Mo Zihan and Wang Fengying only ate a mouthful of food in the house, in Wang Fengying's bedroom, or they went back to their rooms with their bowls and chopsticks. In short, it had been a long time since a family had gathered together to eat.
Mo Zihan agreed. Wang Fengying said," It's right next to this house!" Right, it was made of light yellow wood with a back.”
"Got it." Mo Zihan pushed open the door and walked out of the courtyard. He went to the door next door and knocked on it.
After a while, the door next door opened a crack. It was a woman in her forties. She was a little bloated and had a wide face. She should be the Aunt Wang that her mother had mentioned.
"Aunt Wang?" Mo Zihan called out tentatively.
The woman opened the door and looked at Mo Zihan from head to toe. She said with a fake smile," Old Mo's daughter, are you feeling better?" I heard that he was hospitalized?"
Mo Zihan didn't want to waste his breath and said lightly," I'm here to get a stool."”
"What chair?" Aunt Wang was obviously stunned for a moment before she asked with widened eyes.
Mo Zihan frowned slightly." Three days ago, my mother lent you four chairs. There were guests at home today, so she asked me to come and get them.”
Aunt Wang paused for a moment and smiled. You mean that chair! Hehe, I have guests at home today too. Help me tell your mother to lend it to me for another day.”
She thought that Mo Zihan would leave, but she was standing at the door and said lightly," Aunt Wang, where's the chair?”
Aunt Wang's smile stiffened as she looked at Mo Zihan, wondering what was wrong with this girl today.
"The chair is in the room!" However, she blocked the door and didn't let Mo Zihan in." Aiyo, go back and tell your mother that I said it! Lend it to me for another day. How about this, I'll borrow two chairs for you next door in case of emergency?”
Hearing this, Mo Zihan frowned even more, feeling that something was wrong. If it was an ordinary person, they might not think too much about it, but Mo Zihan would not let go of every expression, every detail, and the meaning of every word she said.
Originally, he would usually take a chair, but the other party had shown many unusual aspects, so Mo Zihan could not help but think too much.
At this moment, there was a buzzing sound behind him. The wheels of the truck rolled over the uneven road and squeezed into the alley, stopping in front of Aunt Wang's house.
A young man jumped out of the car excitedly. When he saw Aunt Wang at the door, he said excitedly," Mom! I've checked it. It's just as I thought. That chair is worth a lot of money!”
Aunt Wang quickly winked at the young man. Only then did the young man see Mo Zihan standing at the door. He smiled and asked," We have guests?"”
Aunt Wang wailed in her heart, but she smiled and said," This is Old Mo's girl.”As he spoke, he pointed to the room next door.
The young man was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said," So what? Little girl, I've taken a fancy to those chairs in your house. Let's go and find your family's adults to name a price!”
It turned out that Aunt Wang's son had come home to visit a few days ago. He had coincidentally picked up the chair that Aunt Wang had borrowed from Mo Zihan's house. He felt that this chair was quite old and was very likely to be an antique, so he had taken it out to have it appraised. However, she did not expect to meet Mo Zihan today.
The other party obviously did not take Mo Zihan, a child, to heart. Moreover, this young man was quite rich when he was doing business outside. He was not afraid even if Mo Junbao offered a price. He obviously did not have much scruples about these people who had never seen big money before.
Ignoring Mo Zihan, the young man strode towards the Mo family next door.
It was Wang Fengying who came out to open the door. He obviously had some impression of the young man and greeted him with a smile," Little He, isn't this? You haven't lived in the courtyard since you were young, but you still remember your uncle and aunt?”
Wang Fengying welcomed the young man into the house with a warm expression. The young man had a superior smile on his face as he pretended to be friendly." Aunt Wang, Uncle Mo." I don't come to your palace for no reason!"
Mo Junbao, who was sitting at the side smoking, became vigilant when he heard that. He hoped that he would not borrow money from him.
The young man with the surname He smiled and said," It's like this. Two days ago, I saw a few chairs at my mother's house. The style and appearance were quite likable, so I got someone to appraise them for me. They were some old chairs, but they weren't antiques. But I just can't put it down! I'm here today to ask the two of you for a price! I wonder if you can transfer those chairs to me!”
Mo Junbao rolled his eyes. He really didn't know much about this thing.
"Xiao He, name your price.”Mo Junbao took a puff of his cigarette. He looked like he knew what he was doing and could not scare anyone.
The young man chuckled." I'll give you 30,000 yuan. Of the four chairs, two of them were actually imitations. They were probably matched by your family to look good. 30,000 yuan is not low, Uncle Mo.”What he said was the truth. There were only two of the really good things.
"What?" Mo Junbao widened his eyes. Those broken logs were worth 30,000 yuan?!
In the past, he even wanted to sell it to a junk collector. He thought that if this Xiao He was honest and offered a few hundred yuan, he would really sell it! Now, those new furniture and good-looking chairs could be bought for a few hundred yuan!
The young man frowned, thinking that Mo Junbao was too little. However, compared to the value of the chair, what he gave was indeed a drop in the ocean.
"Uncle Mo, how about this? Because I really like it, I'll give you a maximum of 40,000 yuan! The price couldn't go any higher. If you could find a chair that cost 40,000 yuan in the entire Lan City, I would kick your head like a ball!”The young man said firmly, afraid that Mo Junbao would raise the price again.
Wang Fengying was also shocked by the price, but her brain worked faster than Mo Junbao. She quickly whispered," Doesn't our second son like to study antiques? Don't be in a hurry to set the price. Wait for him to come and see!”
Mo Junbao's eyes immediately narrowed." Him? It wasn't that he hadn't seen this chair before, but why hadn't he said that it was valuable? Alright, alright, alright, stop making a fuss. None of our brothers are good-hearted. They can't bear to see our family do well!”
Mo Junbao stood up and asked with a smile on his face," Xiao He, forty thousand yuan in cash?”
The young man heaved a sigh of relief and smiled brightly." Of course, Uncle Mo! We're old neighbors. We can discuss everything. Just say the word and I'll immediately withdraw the money for you.”
"40,000 yuan?" Mo Junbao asked uncertainly.
"40,000!" The young man's smile widened.
At this moment, the girl who was standing by the door with her arms crossed suddenly said," Can I take a look at that chair first?"”
Her voice was still a little hoarse.
