1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 427 A newcomer came to the alley

Facing such an imposing lady, how dare Luo Tao say anything against his will.

"You're always right."

He agreed to her words with a smile and turned around to leave this place of right and wrong.

My mother, Su Guilan, is not an ordinary person. She grabbed the white short shirt that Luo Tao was wearing and said, "Where are you going? Why don't you explain yourself clearly?"

Luo Tao paused and thought: I thought you always understood.

He turned around and said to her with a smile:
"Isn't it obvious that there are lice on the bald head? It's because Little October likes you, otherwise why wouldn't he kiss me or anyone else?

...This is all due to your wise teachings. "

Luo Tao has never flattered others for a long time, and this time he praised me alone, if it weren't for her personal innate conditions that limited her and some inexplicable mystery.

As a son, Luo Tao will definitely praise his wife as the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady in the sky and the enlightened Guanshiyin Bodhisattva.

At her age, she is at a stage where she is enjoying family happiness. It would be better to praise her than her children and grandchildren even if she is praised ten times.

She originally liked to hear a few flattering words.

Since Luo Tao reported to the police, he has transformed from an alley gangster into a young man with clear aspirations, knowledge, morality and wealth.

It can be said that in Banqiao, including Xinjiekou, she is a person who is bathed in sweet words every day.

Su Guilan enjoys everything now, but she also has her own intelligence and knowledge.

That is, in her words: We sisters can promote each other's business and help each other when we have difficulties, but there is one thing that we are not allowed to talk to her. I want to get to know Luo Tao through her.

If you want to get to know yourself, she won't make connections.

The old lady is not a fool. After decades of hard times, not to mention how powerful she is, she has also developed extremely high defensive abilities.

Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.

She didn't want to harm her son because of her talkativeness.

"I need you to praise me. Go away and don't delay me from making shoes for the little girl."

I don’t want to take a few glances at the little October brothers and sisters from a distance.

She also held a half-finished tiger-head cotton shoe in her hand, with the word "auspicious" embroidered on the outer upper. Presumably the outer upper of the other shoe had the word "ruyi" embroidered on it.

The workmanship of these tiger-head shoes is exquisite, and the materials used all depend on the family's background. Not only is it labor-intensive, but it is also very labor-intensive.

Every stitch represents Su Guilan's love for the younger generations.

Starting from the sole, it is first made into a thousand-layer layer, and then the sole and the body of the shoe are integrated. This requires hand sewing stitch by stitch.

Luo Tao and Zhu Lin were initially opposed to Su Guilan and the others making cotton shoes for little girls. In their opinion, it was very impractical to make children's cotton shoes by hand.

Totally unnecessary.

This is not just empty talk, but there is some basis for it.

If I have to give an example, let’s take Little October.

Su Guilan bought a lot of the clothes that Xiao Shiyue wore when she was a child. Because children grow quickly, some clothes don't fit before they have been worn for a long time.

If you don't want to throw it away, give it to your neighbors!I am afraid that they will have random thoughts.

Based on this situation, I had no choice but to save it every year, waiting for Uncle Qin's arrival, and he would give it to the children of relatives in the countryside to wear.

Of course, there will be other New Year gifts every year, otherwise if you just give them a few old clothes, you might get scolded by someone behind your back: the Luo family in the city, this distant relative, is a family that is full of arrogance.

Don't be too kind when supporting close relatives, don't be famous when supporting Guangde.

Human feet always develop faster than human height.

For example, the author used to wear size [-] shoes. More than ten years later, he has grown a lot taller, but now he still wears size [-] shoes.

I also want to have a pair of big feet, but my height does not allow it.

Seeing the old lady's happy expression, Luo Tao felt satisfied.

"Hey! You're always busy."

What is filial piety?
In this life, Luo Tao thinks that his parents are healthy and in good health, and that they are happy every day.

Luo Tao ran to his daughter and son, while Zhu Lin accompanied Su Guilan and Sister He, asking them for advice on shoemaking techniques.

-----

"Dean Xu, please ask someone else to take care of this matter.

I only have half a tael of sesame oil in my stomach, so I can play with myself. But if you ask me to appraise calligraphy and paintings for the Forbidden City, you think too highly of me. "

It was a bright and clear day today, and I wanted to go out for a walk. As soon as I had the idea, I was robbed on the way.

Deputy Director Xu of the Palace Museum should now be said to be Acting Director Xu. Since the death of Director Wu in 1983, the seat of Director of the Palace Museum has been vacant for more than a year.

Dean Xu is the First Vice-President of the Forbidden City, and until the superiors send a dean to come, he will act on his behalf.

As for why he was not chosen, it may be because of his age.

It was the first time he visited the Luo family's door, and the two of them became familiar with each other.

After he entered the room and took a seat, he went straight to the point and invited Luo Tao to appraise a batch of calligraphy and paintings for the Forbidden City.

When Luo Tao heard about this job, he didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately declined the offer.

Although Luo Tao's vision is considered to be the best in the industry, this job is too risky, and it may be thankless if he does it well.

Luo Tao has a large collection. Don't let anyone scold him if something goes wrong after he comes out of the palace.

If not for any other reason, it was just to avoid suspicion.

When he heard that Luo Tao declined the matter, he became a little anxious. He complained to Luo Tao with a grimace at such an old age.

"Mr. Luo, I promise that someone is here to invite you sincerely.

The calligraphy and paintings collected from below in the past two years... and the original calligraphy and paintings of the Forbidden City can really be said to be countless.

To tell you the truth, the current manpower in the Forbidden City is completely inadequate to properly identify these calligraphy and paintings!

As for your appraisal level, I still know it well, otherwise I wouldn't come to ask you. "

"Oh!"

That's what he said, but he still didn't want to go.

Smiling, he gave him another cup, "You have tea!"

Since meeting him for the first time, Luo Tao has identified him as a very old-school scholar. He behaves and talks like a scholar from the Republic of China, and his tea-drinking movements are so smooth.

While waiting for Luo Tao's answer, he said: "Good tea..."

“…Good tea is good tea, but if I don’t meet someone who understands tea like you, it would be in vain.…”

----

"Dean Xu, please allow me to think about it for two days. There are too many things to do these days... I'm afraid that we won't be able to handle both ends by then and give in to Dean Xu's kindness."

Seeing what Luo Tao said, Dean Xu could only smile wryly, and drank a few more cups of good tea at Luo's house for his own benefit.

Luo Tao is different now, and he can't ignore it like before. If he does, he may really shoot himself in the foot.

"Well, Mr. Luo, you are busy. There are still many things in the courtyard waiting for me to deal with.

You stay! ! ! "

Why did this sound so awkward to me? It seemed like he was particularly polite to the corporal and took time out of his busy schedule to treat me.

"Okay, you go slowly."

At the gate, Luo Tao walked down the steps and watched him leave the depths of flowers.

As soon as he turned around and climbed up the stairs, he heard someone calling him from behind.

"Mr. Luo, who is that person? The score looks pretty big."

Just by hearing this voice, Luo Tao knew who it was without even looking back.He turned around and said with a smile: "Oh, Xiao Wei!"

Pointing to the direction Dean Xu was leaving, he smiled and said, "That person's profile is pretty big, people from the palace."

This Xiao Wei just moved to Baihua Shenzhen at the beginning of this year and lives in No. [-] courtyard opposite the Luo family.

Li Sijun from Courtyard No. [-] was promoted to another place. He heard that the treatment was good and he was given a house and a car.

I just heard about this, but I don’t know whether it’s true or not.

So the family left the capital, and the three bungalows left by his family were resold by others.

Their family is not native to the capital either.

I also came to see Luo Tao at first, but because the origins of the three houses in his family were unknown, they only had a written agreement signed between the original owner and his family.

Luo Tao refused.

Without Butcher Zhang, we can't say that we have to eat pigs with hair on them.

After a sudden change, he sold it to Xiao Wei and her family.

I had only met her a few times, and I knew her surname was Wei.

But he didn't know how old she was, and she looked young, so Luo Tao just called her "Xiao Wei", mainly because she didn't object.

I don’t know what kind of job I can do to have enough money to buy a house.

She is dressed coolly and has a great figure. Looking at her for a long time will make you feel guilty.

These girls are not good people.

Judging from the few steps she took, this was a woman who had definitely seen the world.

Since moving here, I have seen her coming in and out all the time, and I haven't seen anyone else.

"Oh, no wonder it's so outrageous." After learning the answer, she changed the subject with a smile and said, "Have Mr. Luo eaten?"

Luo Tao thought it had not been three hours since breakfast, what kind of food should he eat now, and looked up at the sky.

He said in confusion: "It's still early for lunch today, right? What, you haven't had breakfast yet?"

She looked embarrassed and patted her head, "Look at my brain, I'm just asking some nonsense.

You are busy, I have other things to do. "

I don't know why she changed the topic so quickly, and then said: "Okay, you are busy." He saw her twisting her waist and entering Courtyard No. [-].

I thought to myself, I'm not familiar with them, so it would be awkward to say hello.

Luo Tao murmured again, "There are so many beautiful women in this alley, Wang Er's bad wife is enough to be eye-catching, here is another one.

well!I don’t know whether I am happy or sad. "

Uncle Luo walked up the steps back home with his hands behind his back. When he opened the door, he saw the person he least wanted to see at this moment.

Luo Tao felt guilty for a moment and pretended to be frightened, "Oh, aunt, you want to scare me to death!"

Patting his little heart, he closed his eyes.

She said fiercely: "Why didn't I scare you to death?"

He pulled Luo Tao twice and closed the door with a "bang!"

"Say, what pretty girl?"

Luo Tao swallowed a few mouthfuls of water, knowing that his daughter-in-law was suspicious again.

I was cheering myself up in my heart. I couldn't admit to a pretty girl even to death, "What pretty girl? You must have heard wrong."

"I heard you right, and I saw you chatting happily with the new neighbor opposite.

Why don't you explain this? "

Luo Tao reacted quickly and put his hand against her head, "You don't even have a fever. Why are you talking nonsense? People greet you politely, but you can show off your face to others. That's too low for the capital." Human face."

He smiled again, took her plump and delicate hand, and said, "You know how to think nonsense every day... you can't think of good things."

After Luo Tao said this, she should have figured it out.

He asked a little stupidly: "Do I have it?"

"Hey! You are the queen of our family, how could you have... you are stupid for three years after being pregnant for one year." Luo Tao tapped her nose.

"Go, I don't have a good word to say." She even raised her eyebrows, feeling very...

This tenderness did not last long, and he said seriously: "I can tell you, stay away from that woman in the future, and don't let people think that we are familiar with her."

Zhu Lin lay down next to Luo Zhilian's ear and whispered a few words.

"What? That Xiao Wei is Wang Erbao's concubine." Luo Tao was shocked.

Is there any reason for riding a horse?

Wang Erbao has good teeth, and many people are jealous because he has a big Mongolian figure in his family that is comparable to that of a goblin. Now he has provoked a hot girl.

Like Mr. Luo, he is young and promising, handsome, has a successful career, and has a happy family...

The only way to relieve his hatred is to say that God is Wang Er's bad father.

She showed an unsearchable look and whispered: "Please keep your voice down. I heard other people say this. I don't know whether it is true or not."

Hey, this daughter-in-law, after spending a long time with those aunts, she has also learned that the East has the home and the West has the home.

She lost her temperament as a queen at all.

The environment really affects people.

Luo Tao must have a good talk with her about this matter. It is not a good thing to ruin the queen's temperament. "Don't listen to the wind and the rain...it's not good to gossip behind your back.

Nothing will happen from now on. Let’s read and draw at home, and don’t gossip with those aunts. "

She said coquettishly: "It's not like I want to hear it,... Aunt Tang and Aunt Feng took my hand and told me, it doesn't matter if I don't want to hear it."

"These two old ladies are the same. They dare to spread any nonsense... the world has only been peaceful for a few days."

……

……

In the blink of an eye, the couple was chatting very passionately about this matter at the screen wall.

"You're right. That daughter-in-law has been with him for several years, so there's nothing going on."

Luo Tao sighed and regretted it, a good piece of fertilizer.

"They also said that they are getting divorced now."

"Hey! How come you know everything?"

Zhu Lin smiled triumphantly: "Women can hold up half the sky...how can I not know, apart from you and Dad in our family, even Little October knows about this."

"Wang Erbao's face was scratched by his wife when they had a fight..."

When it came to gossip, Zhu Lin didn't hesitate to give in and spoke eloquently.

Luo Tao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect so many bad things to happen in the alley these days.

Luo Tao thought about this bad guy for a moment. This kid really looked a bit like Xu Damao from the beast courtyard.

He has done a lot of bad things, and his wife is still not pregnant after being married for a long time.

It is said that this boy is normal in that regard, and the position below has not been attacked by the enemy.

It’s not like I can’t give birth to a child.

well!It seems that we still have to borrow a chicken to lay eggs.
