The happy life of the landlady

Chapter 184 Xu Deyu's Good Brother

"Xiao Wu, today is NO.18."

As early as the moment Wen Jiaqing came in, Xu Deyu pretended to be busy, as if he hadn't heard his words, and looked at the thick stack of documents in his hand with a slight frown.

Wen Jiaqing pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, his slightly squinted eyes flashed light quickly, but the corners of his mouth curled up into a slight smile, and reminded: "Xiao Wu, I need to call the little sister of Xu's family and ask her to take the things directly. Is it okay to send it over?"

Depend on!
Xu Deyu raised his head abruptly, glared at Wen Jiaqing, who was helping others, and did not hesitate to use his poisonous tongue skills: "You want to go home and take the blame? That's right, your family already has a corrupt businessman, If there is another lawyer who plays black and white to defend corrupt officials, I don't know how angry your old man will be."

Wen Jiaqing looked at Xu Deyu in surprise: "Xiao Wu, don't you know that my old man has agreed to let me be a lawyer?"

"..." Damn it!
No wonder this guy has become more and more arrogant recently, it turns out he has nothing to fear!

Xu Deyu took a deep breath, and asked angrily, "When did it happen?"

"Tsk..." Wen Jia took aim at the attractive bright red apples placed on Xu Deyu's table early in the morning, stepped forward to take one without hesitation, took a big bite without bothering to peel it with a knife, and felt Seeing the unique sweet scent of apples that spread from the tip of his tongue to his whole body, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and the smile on his face became a little more sincere because of this: "Xiao Wu, you don't care too much about your only partner right?"

After saying that, Wen Jiaqing reached out to the other apples, but was slapped away by Xu Deyu: "Little Si, you are enough!"

"Ah?" Wen Jiaqing blinked, pretending to be puzzled, and looked at Xu Deyu carefully. The strange look in his eyes made Xu Deyu immediately retract his fingers, and kept stroking the top of his arm out of thin air. The hair on end stood up, and said angrily: "If you disgust me again, I will ask Xiaojuan to send a lot of things to the Wen family!" Let you experience for yourself the "deep affection" of the Xu family to the Wen family.

"I can't ask for it." To Xu Deyu's surprise, Wen Jiaqing not only agreed happily, but also said with a smile: "If you can get a lot of fresh and delicious fruits without any effort, I think the old man will be more satisfied. I'm partnering with you." opened this law firm."

Xu Deyu had a flash of inspiration: "Could it be, that's how you persuaded your old man?"

"So what?" Wen Jiaqing was not ashamed, but said triumphantly: "As long as it works, it doesn't matter if the method is old-fashioned or not!"

In fact, until now, Wen Jiaqing still feels that this matter is so dreamy—you know, although Mr. Wen and Mr. Xu are good friends, but Wen Jiaqing grew up so old, he never thought that Mr. Wen would be in Mr. Xu’s house one day. Under the leadership, his personality became more and more lively, and he quickly transformed into an out-and-out foodie in a short period of time.

In the past, Wen Jiaqing felt that the word "foodie" was definitely a derogatory term.However, since Mr. Wen mentioned from time to time that although Xu Lijuan's skill is not as good as that of a five-star chef, the home-cooked dishes he makes have a unique kind of home-cooked food that makes people feel the taste of happiness after eating. Some fresh vegetables and fruits brought back from Xu's house made Wen Jiaqing deeply feel the profound meaning of the word "foodie", and at the same time, Wen Jiaqing keenly grasped the great opportunity to poke the weakness of the Chinese old man.

Of course, it is precisely because Wen Jiaqing himself has tasted those fresh vegetables and fruits, and those greenhouse vegetables on the market that have been fertilized with unknown amount of fertilizer and ripened, or picked from the ground and have not yet matured. Compared with the transportation for a period of time and the storage of freshly ripened vegetables and fruits, Xu Lijuan specifically confessed that the six provinces of L, S, H, Z, G and X were purchased in remote small villages. Farmers in the fields and forests only use plant ash, do not apply chemical fertilizers and do not use any ripening methods to grow vegetables and fruits, so that they really have the taste of vegetables and fruits!

"Give me the money!" Xu Deyu didn't know that so many thoughts had passed through Wen Jiaqing's mind in a short period of time.However, this did not prevent him from following Wen Jiaqing's words, stretching out his right hand with the palm facing upwards, and glaring at Wen Jiaqing, this good-looking villain who took advantage of it: "Otherwise, I'll tell my old man."

"Cut!" Wen Jiaqing took a bite of the apple: "Xiao Wu, you're already this old, you still have the nerve to report in front of the old man?"

"It's not as good as you." As soon as Xu Deyu thought that the pile of things that Xu Lijuan sent was already on the way, he would be filled with depression and helplessness.Since he couldn't live a good life, then of course Wen Jiaqing, who could be said to have single-handedly caused this, couldn't stay out of it.

As if Wen Jiaqing didn't hear the meaning behind Xu Deyu's words, he continued to eat the apple with his head down.As a result, only the sound of Wen Jiaqing biting an apple was heard in the whole room, and there was nothing else. Ling pretended to be busy and looked at the lawyers and assistants in Xu Deyu's room from time to time. The fire of gossip in their hearts blazed up as if they had been splashed with several barrels of boiling oil, and the eyes they looked at each other were full of "you understand" emotions.

Of course, because everyone knows Xu Deyu and Wen Jiaqing's dark-bellied nature, Wen Jiaqing ate a whole apple, and smoothly got a lot of other fruits, and walked out of Xu Deyu's office contentedly At that time, what I saw was a busy scene where everyone lowered their eyes.

Gee!
Wen Jiaqing glanced at the bustling crowd, secretly thinking: These guys really think he doesn't know? !Even in such a busy season, there are mood gossips, it seems that one or two are still too busy!Or should I pick up a few more orders tomorrow and come back to do it?

Wen Jiaqing, who had these thoughts in his head, looked at Xu Deyu who also raised his head in the room when no one noticed, and the two quickly reached an agreement.

So, for the next period of time, the employees of the entire office were so busy that they wished they had three heads and six arms.However, to the surprise of Xu Deyu and Wen Jiaqing, this kind of busyness not only did not eliminate the fire of gossip in everyone's hearts, but also made them discuss more enthusiastically in private, and the topic was quickly discussed by Xu Deyu. The bosses of the two firms, Yu and Wen Jiayou, have deviated from Xu Lijuan, who will let the courier deliver something every three or five times, and regularly ask the driver to deliver a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits as benefits for everyone every month. On the little princess of the Xu family.

No one who can work under Xu Deyu and Wen Jiaqing is a fool, and those who think that although Xu Lijuan has good luck against the sky for various reasons, it is hard to say whether she has used up all her life's luck and so on. Compared with other people, they firmly believe that Xu Lijuan is a phoenix that has successfully completed Nirvana and is about to soar into the sky.

Of course, these are all for later.

At this moment, Xu Deyu was grimacing, begging for forgiveness to Xu Lijuan on the other end of the phone: "Xiaojuan, Fifth Brother only took on a few big cases a while ago, and I'm really busy recently, so you can help me with my grandfather's work." Say a few good words in front of me, and then Fifth Brother will give you a gift that you absolutely love, will it work?"

"Fifth brother, do you think I'm someone who can be easily bought with a small gift?"

Xu Lijuan rolled her eyes: "You don't count, how long have you not returned to the old house? Grandpa is so old, he should be surrounded by his children and grandchildren, and spend every day leisurely, but you are holding your finger Do the math, elder brother, second elder brother, third elder brother and my elder brother seldom go home once a year. Only you, eldest cousin and second cousin are in the capital, but you don’t see each other several times throughout the year. People who know you are busy will still Comfort and comfort grandpa, saying that you young people have your own careers, grandpa should feel relieved and proud. People who don’t know you are busy will think that you think grandpa is too annoying, and you don’t want to listen to his chattering words. They are fooling around outside under the banner of busy work, one and two are unfilial sons!"

"Xiaojuan, is fifth brother like that?" Xu Deyu felt as if his whole body was soaked in the juice made from bitter melon, and his breath was full of bitter taste, even the foodie who had tasted countless delicacies His tongue can no longer distinguish other flavors, "When the fifth brother finishes his work, he will definitely return to the old house for a few months. Until grandpa gets tired of my daily 'colorful clothes entertaining relatives'" Behavior, drove me out of the old house impatiently, so I left obediently, okay?"

"Talk this to grandpa, and see if grandpa will believe you again!" Xu Lijuan really doesn't know how to evaluate Xu Deyu, who used her actual actions to demonstrate the story of "Wolf is Coming", " Anyway, grandpa is in a bad mood recently, so you should pray with three sticks of incense every day that you won't be approached by grandpa, otherwise...hehe..."

"Xiaojuan, my dear sister, can I ask you not to laugh like this? You make me feel so stressed..." Xu Deyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and endured the bursts of pain that ran across his back. Yin Feng continued to plead in a low voice: "Fifth Brother has been really busy recently, you don't know why that nasty Wen Jiaqing got into trouble, and suddenly took on several major criminal cases..."

"Wen Jiaqing?" No matter before or after rebirth, Xu Lijuan heard this name from Xu Deyu for the first time.In the previous life, when the Xu family was in decline, Wen Jiaqing had already become an important barrister in the entire Hua Kingdom. He had extended a helping hand to the Xu family more than once without asking for anything in return, and countless people from the outside world praised the Wen family's sincerity and loyalty to others.And only Xu Lijuan, who has become A Piao, understands why Wen Jiaqing has treated Xu's family so heartily all these years.

In this way, he can give all his friendship for the brother he recognizes, which is envied by everyone no matter before or after rebirth, and Xu Lijuan is no exception.It is also because of this that after being reborn, Xu Lijuan will spare no effort to restore her sisterhood with Yu Jiayi, in order to want a friendship that will never betray like Wen Jiaqing treats Xu Deyu.

"Hmm." Xu Deyu didn't know that so many thoughts had turned in Xu Lijuan's mind in a short period of time, and he seriously explained Xu Lijuan's confusion: "He is the fourth of the Wen family."

"Oh, it turned out that it was the third brother Wen who was very rebellious. He didn't listen to the words of his parents and elders and quietly escaped from the family's protection. He was fighting outside alone like Brother Fu."

This...why is it so wrong?

Without waiting for Xu Deyu to ask the doubts in her heart, Xu Lijuan asked again with a smile: "Fifth Brother, do you have a good relationship with Fourth Brother Wen?"

Xu Deyu replied subconsciously: "Who has a good relationship with him!"
"Oh... I understand..." Xu Lijuan purposely prolonged her words, but Xu Deyu's face turned black again when she heard it, and she couldn't help warning: "Xiaojuan, don't think about it."

"Fifth brother, what do you mean by thinking wildly, what do you mean not thinking wildly?" Xu Lijuan asked back with a smile, her slightly narrowed eyes were filled with cunning, which made Ding Dong, who was lazily lying on the wool carpet basking in the sun, couldn't help but shudder. Shivering, her back turned cold, and she looked in surprise at Xu Lijuan who was obviously smiling, but couldn't hide the calculation in her eyes.
