Chapter 547 The old Wei family’s double insurance and Romanee-Conti
"Uncle, this is the Guangxu official kiln. The consignor bought it at the auction house and had it appraised by professionals. It's a good thing."
"Auntie, didn't you say that you have been suffering from insomnia some time ago? This is the Jade Buddha that I specially invited at Kaifu Temple when I went to Hunan Province. I heard that it is very spiritual and can calm and soothe the mind."
It wasn't until the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month that Zhao Liying finished her work and returned to Shanghai. As soon as she arrived at Yunhua Mansion, she opened New Year's gifts for Wang Yunping and his wife.
"Good boy, you're not an outsider. Why are you buying things? Spending money and worrying about it."
Wang Yunping has been manipulated by Zhao Liying for a long time. He was happy to see her, not to mention that she had such a thoughtful gift and would not let go of her.
Zhao Liying also hugged her affectionately: "Look what you said, you are always so kind to me, shouldn't I be filial to you? Besides, my mother called me and said that you would send a bunch of New Year's goods to our family. , I’m not even polite to you, why are you being polite to me?”
"Work hard, we are a family, no polite words, come and bring it to Auntie, I will send it to Moments."
Wang Yunping happily carried the Jade Buddha. Zhao Liying cooperated and found an angle to take pictures of her. Wei Shan stared at the official kiln and couldn't pull it out.
Only Wei Yang stood alone: "No, don't you have my gift?"
"Together every day, what gift do you want?"
Wang Yunping dismissed her son with a wave of her hand, and wanted to take a photo with Zhao Liying. However, such pictures could not be posted to Moments, or Zhao Liying's face could be covered with patterns to prevent people from spreading them randomly on the Internet.
"We also need gifts when we are together, and we need to live with a sense of ritual."
Wei Yang was unhappy, or not at all, so it didn't matter if I was left alone. Zhao Liying smiled at him acting up, and after the excitement was over, she took out a small box from her bag.
"Don't worry, I won't forget you."
Wei Yang opened it and saw that it was a red sandalwood bracelet with a wooden Buddha amulet attached to it. Zhao Liying introduced it to him.
"I bought the bracelet, but if I go to the temple to have it consecrated, I can take it with me or leave it at home."
"Why are you so good at this all of a sudden?"
"Pray for blessings, just in case it helps."
Zhao Liying is not superstitious, but she doesn't reject it either. She heard from a friend that it was good, so she gave it a try, mainly because it has a good meaning and is decent as a gift.
Wei Yang nodded. He and Zhao Liying still had similar attitudes on this point. They didn't admire it, but they didn't object either.
It is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist!
It doesn't take much effort to pray at ordinary times, just think of it as asking for good luck and peace of mind.
Wang Yunping liked this idea very much, and asked Wei Yang to put the strings away, otherwise they would be broken, which would hurt his luck. He also said that he would go to Lingyin Temple to pay homage when he had time.
There are also local temples in the capital, such as Jing'an Temple and Jade Buddha Temple, as well as Taoist temples such as City God Temple and Baiyun Temple.
Wang Yingping does not adhere to Buddhist teachings and is very practical. She worships gods whenever she sees them, and worships more gods whenever she feels like them. She switches between Amitabha Buddha and Infinite Heavenly Lord very smoothly.
However, she believed in Lingyin Temple the most, mainly because Lingyin Temple was famous and popular. Putuo Mountain was also OK, but the road was a bit far.
Comrade Lao Wei is better at this. He doesn't worship gods, but he worships his ancestors. He never fails to return to his hometown at least once a year to visit his grave.
In this way, the ancestors of the Wei family are supported below, and the Buddhist and Taoist gods are supported above, which can be said to be double insurance.
But when it comes to this aspect, Wei Yang and his family are just joining in the fun, which is better than nothing.
Rich people from Guangdong and Fujian build ancestral halls to worship their ancestors, which is a big scene.
Wei Yang also heard about a big boss who built a temple and raised a bunch of monks to pray for himself and his family. Boss Wei didn't know if he was pious or if he committed too many sins and was afraid of retribution.
"Look at Liying, she even knows how to buy us gifts, but your own son has not done anything at all."
After Wang Yunping finished cursing the gift from his daughter-in-law, he started to attack his son again. Boss Wei felt aggrieved.
"Mom, this is so heartless."
"Usually when I go to buy something at home, you always scold me, saying I'm a prodigal, I don't know how to show off when I have two dollars."
"Now you think I'm unfilial, why is it all your fault?"
Wang Yunping said confidently: "I am your mother, so it's all my fault."
"Okay, okay, I can't compete with you."
Wei Yang begged for mercy and took out two bank cards from his wallet: "I have everything at home, but you are nagging me about what I want to buy, so I won't bother with it. I have 5 million per person. I can buy whatever I want."
Wei Shan was happy. Just as he was about to reach out to take it, Wang Yunping slapped his hand. Then the two cards were snatched away and he forcibly took over the financial power.
"My children respect me."
Comrade Wei wanted to argue, but Wang Yunping glared:
"What do you need so much money for? You want to buy bottles and junk. I'll hold them for you. Ask me for them when you need them."
"That's... quite laborious."
Wang Yunping is now very wealthy, but she actually gives money to her if she wants it, but she has to have a justifiable reason, and she is easily nagged.
In contrast, Lao Wei naturally hopes that he can take the money and spend it however he wants.
Wei Yang pretended not to have seen the confrontation between the old couple. In fact, he also knew that his mother was not afraid that Old Wei would spend money randomly, but that the man was too rich and tempted too much, so she had to supervise him.
In this regard, she should have the support of her aunt Wei Xia. The latter had a very good relationship with Wang Yunping's sister-in-law for decades, and she did not want to have an unruly sister-in-law inexplicably.
Originally, Wei Yang secretly supported his father's small treasury, but later he was discovered and was stopped by his aunt and his mother.
Boss Wei couldn't help it. After all, he blamed his father for being dishonest. If he had always followed the rules and never violated them, he wouldn't have been treated so miserably.
But at least Comrade Wei is not short of money as long as he is honest. His eldest uncle is even worse. Sometimes he doesn't even have money to buy cigarettes.
Every time Comrade Wei was in a bad mood, he would go to his brother-in-law for a drink and listen to the miserable life of his eldest uncle, and his mood would immediately feel much better...
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.
The doorbell rang, and the housekeeper went to open the door, and then brought the aunt's family back.
There is no twenty-nine this year. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. According to usual practice, Auntie and the others will come to Wei Yang's house to celebrate the New Year. It is even late this year. If Auntie hadn't been busy working in the restaurant, the family would have come here long ago.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
My cousin has the most contact with Zhao Liying, and she is also the most attached to this sister-in-law. She never lets go once they meet, and even asks for autographs of stills from "Strategy of the Ming Palace" to be given to her college roommates.
His cousin is now a college student, and his grades are not as good as his cousin's. Wei Yang found someone and spent money to finally get an undergraduate school.
Compared to his cousin who is still noisy, my cousin is now calmer and more reserved than when he was a child. He also wears glasses and is much more polite.
"I heard from my mother that you have found a girlfriend?"
Wei Yang saw his cousin looking at He Tianxia who was entertaining his uncle on the table, so he picked up a cigarette and handed it to the latter. The latter held it in his mouth skillfully, then remembered where it was, and quickly took it down again. He said with a red face and a flat stomach.
"No, it's all friends, my mother and aunt just guessed."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We're in college and it's not puppy love. Let's talk about it."
Wei Yang smiled and shook his head. His aunt was relatively strong, and maybe she saw that her nephew was too romantic and was strict with the children in the family, and her cousin was a bit timid, so she never dared to fall in love early.
In fact, the child looks good. Wei Yang is so handsome, so the genes of the old Wei family are naturally very good.
Especially my cousin, who has a good foundation and knows how to dress up, and is qualified to be an artist for Coral Entertainment. My cousin is a little bit worse, but he is still a handsome boy. If he is more confident, he might be able to compete for the school crown.
He is handsome, has a good temper, has a lot of living expenses from his family, and can occasionally get some gold coins from his cousin. Such a boy is easy to find a partner in college.
Wei Yang is very supportive of his cousin's desire to fall in love and experience the beauty of love, and men must experience women to grow up.
My cousin was a little embarrassed when he was questioned by Wei Yang. A young man with a tender face like him was no match for the questioning of an experienced driver like Wei Yang, so he could only divert the trouble to the east with a blushing face.
"Brother, my sister seems to have someone she likes too."
"What?!"
Wei Yang's expression changed. As mentioned before, because he is an only son, he has been close to his aunt's family since he was a child. Although he is called a cousin, he is actually regarded as his biological brother and sister.
If your younger brother takes someone else's cabbage, he will definitely be happy.
But when his baby cabbage was eaten by someone else's pig, Boss Wei couldn't laugh anymore.
"When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier? What if someone deceived you?"
Wei Yang was so angry that he gave his cousin a thumbs up. How could he be an elder brother without any vigilance at all?
The cousin covered his head and said aggrievedly: "She didn't let me say it, and the two of them seem to be fine now. The man didn't like her."
"That's good."
Wei Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt a little unhappy. Didn't he like it? Why does he look down on my sister, Wei Yang.
He needs a good face and a good figure...it's not bad. Although his academic qualifications are not 985 or 211, he is from a theater. His family situation is also good, and his brother is a top rich man. His family is a high-ranking official in the capital or an oil seller. So crazy?
Wei Yang called his cousin and Zhao Liying to ask questions upstairs without disturbing the elders.
Hearing this, Zhao Liying was not surprised, and Wei Yang suddenly realized that the two of them were in constant contact. If my cousin wanted to talk to her family about something that was bothering her, but she couldn't talk to her mother and aunt, this sister-in-law who was very good to her would be the first person to talk to. select.
Thinking of this, Wei Yang felt relieved. Since Zhao Liying didn't tell him, it meant that the problem was not serious, otherwise the latter would never hide it from him.
At this time, the cousin was already furious because of his betrayal, and he chased the traitor crazily with a pillow, vowing to knock the traitor to the ground.
"What's going on?"
Wei Yang looked at Zhao Liying. Just as the latter was about to speak, his cousin rushed over and begged pitifully: "Sister-in-law, you promised me not to tell."
Zhao Liying could only give Wei Yang a helpless expression, but Boss Wei looked at her smiling eyes and had an idea.
"That guy shouldn't be G."
Zhao Liying couldn't hold back her smile this time, while her cousin also looked desperate, and her cousin was extremely shocked.
Wei Yang couldn't laugh or cry when he saw that he had guessed correctly. He said that his cousin's conditions were so good that the possibility of being rejected was really low.
If you sincerely refuse, there are only a few reasons.
For example, if someone has a girlfriend, but I guess my cousin won't be able to find out clearly, or she is not interested in girls, this is more private, and if it is kept secret, only the person involved may know about it.
After all, Wei Yang had been reborn and was well-informed. With a little thought, he guessed the reason. He could only sigh that his cousin was unlucky. He finally changed his mind, but ended up with the wrong person.
"Brother, you must keep it a secret for me. I can't afford to embarrass this person."
The cousin begged, and Wei Yang nodded in agreement. He was not a gossip, but his cousin was different. He often betrayed his cousin.
So, my cousin went to the side to negotiate.
Wei Yang was lying on the bed, thinking of his previous state of mind and sighing: "I used to think it was better to have a daughter, who is cute and beautiful, but now I think it's better to have a son, at least I don't have to worry about being abducted."
"yes."
Zhao Liying nodded and said in a faint tone: "If I meet a scumbag who has nothing to do with his feet, he will be so angry that he will die."
Wei Yang: "..."
Who do you want?
However, it is true that if he met a son-in-law like himself, he would have to cut off both of his legs.
But the key point is that he is now the son-in-law, not the father-in-law, so he feels that he should be tolerant in running the family and treat others in a harmonious way...
…
Zhao Liying did not go home to celebrate the New Year this year, mainly because she had to start busy work in Shanghai in the second year of junior high school.
But after the Lantern Festival, she should be able to free up time and go home to visit her parents.
After "Strategy of the Ming Palace", Zhao Liying can take a short break. Not to mention visiting her parents, she might even be able to take her parents out for some fun.
Strictly speaking, this should be regarded as Zhao Liying's first time celebrating the New Year at Wei Yang's house.
In previous years, Zhao Liying usually rushed to Corridor City and had never experienced New Year's Eve with Wei Yang.
However, he sometimes leaves late and comes early sometimes, and has participated in many Spring Festival celebrations of the Wei family. In addition, he has also spent several Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival together. The whole family does not feel strange and solemn, and they accept it very calmly. in this situation.
Even the aunt, who had always criticized Zhao Liying, didn't say much. She just asked Wei Yang and Liu Shishi privately.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Wei Yang and Zhao Liying played cards with their mother and aunt, a genuine game of Sanniang teaching their children.
Two are biological mothers and comparable biological mothers, and one is a daughter-in-law!
So Wei Yang only paid for it that night, and Zhao Liying also gave Wang Yunping and her aunt some cards from time to time.
In the end, the two sisters were so happy that even the cousins who served tea and water received four to five thousand yuan each in tips alone.
The next day, Zhao Liying took her family to go shopping, while Wei Yang was at home to pay New Year greetings. As for what he should do, he had already done it before the New Year.
When a group of people came back in the evening, my cousin came over excitedly with her mobile phone.
"Brother, you are on the hot search."
"Is this something rare?"
Wei Yang was very disdainful. He had countless hot searches all year round. He was tired of other celebrities asking for her.
"Then tell us, does Romanee-Conti taste good?"
"What Romanee-Conti?"
Wei Yang was stunned, took the phone and looked at it. It turned out to be a hot search for the movie "Mermaid" which was released today.
The producer was interviewed and gossiped about it, saying that many of the expensive props for the crew were provided by private individuals. Among them, he mentioned that the bottle of Romanée-Conti worth millions was the collection of a producer and was later spotted by another big shot. Buy away.
At that time, many people in the comment area gossiped about who the boss was, and soon an insider anonymously revealed that the person buying the wine was Boss Wei.
"Brother, have you drank this wine? What does it taste like?"
"No, this wine is not for drinking. It is collected to preserve its value. I put it in a friend's winery."
Wei Yang said casually, joking, he could say that this bottle of wine was opened by Fan Xiaopang and that girl, and the two of them had a little fun. He couldn't be killed by Zhao Liying if he turned around.
So this wine must have been collected and cannot be taken out.
Damn it, I have to buy another bottle later to prevent the secret from being exposed. Well, buy a few more bottles.
Millions of red wine gives people a different look and excitement. Fan Xiaopang was particularly emotional and cooperative that day. You can find someone else to try it later...
