A car accident, our family of three crossed
Chapter 80 What kind of secret book is this?
Holding the picture album she had taken out of Hang Shuheng's study in her arms, Hang's mother hurried into the city early. She asked along the way and found the location of the Wanjia Woodworking Workshop. After hesitating for a while, she finally walked in.
The shop clerk was dozing off at the counter with his head on his hand. He perked up when he saw someone coming into the store. But when he saw how the country woman Hang's mother was dressed, he instantly lost interest in greeting her.
The things in their shops are all sold to wealthy people in the city. How could a country woman afford them?
At that moment, he drove the man away in a bad tone: "Do you have something to do? If not, get out and don't interfere with our business. You can't afford these things. Get out, get out."
After entering the city, Hang's mother lost the aggressiveness she had in the village. She shrank back and said hurriedly, "No, I have something to do. I really have something to do. I'm going to find Manager Wan."
"Looking for Manager Wan?" The waiter seemed to have heard a huge joke. If she wanted to look for Manager Wan, she could just look for him. Who did she think she was? "Nonsense, do you think you can see Manager Wan? Look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are. Go, go, go, get out, or don't blame me for being rude." The waiter said as he walked out from behind the counter and pushed her out.
Hang's mother was pushed back repeatedly. If this happened in the village, she would have thrown a tantrum, but now she could only retreat while saying, "I really have something to ask Manager Wan. I have something to give to him." In order to prove that she really had something to give to Manager Wan, she took out a picture album from her arms.
"What is this?" The waiter looked at it suspiciously and reached out to take it. Of course, Hang's mother couldn't let him take it. This thing could be exchanged for twenty taels of silver. What would she do if he took it and didn't return it?
"I can't give it to you." Mother Hang put the book back into her bosom and said defensively, "This is something that Steward Wan asked me to find. I won't give it to anyone except Steward Wan."
The guy was still skeptical, "You just brought a piece of junk here and said you wanted to see Manager Wan. How do I know if what you said is true? You have to tell me what you have here!"
"It's a secret, a secret book." Hang's mother looked around and said in a low voice.
"Are you talking about the secret book? Really?" When the guy heard it was a secret book, he immediately became serious.
"Really, really." Hang's mother nodded repeatedly, "Then, can I see Steward Wan?"
The clerk thought for a moment and said, "Wait here, I'll have someone go and inform them."
"Oh! Okay, okay." Hang's mother stayed in a corner stiffly.
Soon, Manager Wan hurried over, and he felt relieved when he saw Hang's mother. He had just agreed to this matter yesterday, and he thought he would have to wait a few more days, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly. After just one night, the woman had already done it.
Manager Wan couldn't hide his excitement, and invited Hang's mother into the reception room, and asked the waiter to bring tea and snacks. Seeing Hang's mother wolfing down the food, Manager Wan felt extremely disgusted, but he still waited patiently for her to finish eating before getting straight to the point.
"Sister-in-law! Did you get the secret book...?"
Hang's mother almost choked after eating so much that she stiffened her neck and drank several cups of tea before she calmed down and burped. When she heard Manager Wan ask about the secret book, she quickly took out the picture album from her arms and handed it to him with a flattering look on her face.
Manager Wan excitedly took the album and couldn't wait to open it to check. There were indeed some furniture designs inside, but as he flipped through the pages, the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He turned the pages back in disbelief until he reached the last page, then turned back from the last page, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
Mother Hang was thinking about the twenty taels of silver, and only thought that Manager Wan should fulfill his promise after looking at the album. She did not notice that Manager Wan's face was becoming increasingly gloomy.
"What, what is this? What on earth is this?" Manager Wan was furious and threw the booklet onto the table. "This is not a secret book at all."
Hang's mother was so frightened that she said hurriedly, "How can this not be a secret book? Isn't there a furniture pattern on it? This is what you said."
"These are just some common furniture patterns. These patterns can be found everywhere. They are not secret manuals." Manager Wan said angrily, "I shouldn't have placed my hopes on a woman."
When Mrs. Hang heard what Steward Wan said, it seemed that he was not going to fulfill his promise. She became anxious and said, "Steward Wan, this is the money you asked me to steal. You promised me..."
"Silver?" Manager Wan patted the booklet and said angrily, "You use this thing to trick me, and you still dare to ask me for silver. Now, take your things and get out of here."
"Oh, Manager Wan, you can't do this. I stole the things because you told me to. You have to give me the money." Hang's mother felt that the money was getting farther and farther away from her. She was very anxious. "I stole all the things and gave them to you. How can you regret it? If my son finds out that I stole his album, he will turn against me. You are harming me!"
"Hmph! You can sell out your son for a mere twenty taels of silver, and you still care about falling out with each other? You are truly the most shameless and shameless woman I have ever seen. Come, kick this shameless woman out." The friendship was overturned in an instant. Manager Wan showed his disgust without hiding it, and called for someone to kick her out.
"No, Manager Wan, how can you go back on your word and deny your promise? Manager Wan, how can you do this..." Hang's mother was pushed and shoved away, and kept shouting at Manager Wan, but she was outnumbered and eventually kicked out of the shop. She wanted to go in and fight for it again, but how could she accept that the twenty taels of silver would not be given to her.
However, there were two fierce-looking men blocking the door of the shop. Seeing that she was still trying to break in, they threatened her, "Get out of here now, or we will be rude to you." As they said that, they rolled up their sleeves and rubbed their hands together.
No matter how unwilling Hang's mother was, she didn't dare to force her way in. If that big fist was aimed at her, she would be killed with one punch. Although she was greedy for money, she still valued her life.
With an unwilling heart, she finally left Wanjia Woodworking Workshop reluctantly.
Just as Hang's mother left, Wan, the butler, came out of the shop. He found out that the eldest young master stayed in the house outside last night. He went there to report to the young master the result of his failed attempt to buy the secret book, and to confirm the identity of the young master's new favorite.
If her identity is indeed the woman's niece, with this relationship, if the young master's new favorite comes forward, the secret book may really be purchased.
Wan Baolu was woken up by a servant in Zhang Cuiju's bed. He had been awakened too late last night and was feeling sleepy. Steward Wan came and said he wanted to see him about something important.
He came out cursing and putting on his clothes. When he saw Manager Wan, he said angrily, "Manager Wan, you'd better have something very important to say..."
