Chapter 371 Fake Tong'er's Father
Originally, I wanted to say that it would be fine to leave the capital on my own after the mission's visit ends in a few days, but considering that, Kaiyang would be sad.
Hearing this, Mrs. Qi glanced at her husband and said, "Xiaoduo, don't think too much, it's not because of this."
Hearing this, Wei Junpei opened his mouth and hesitated. He said to Hong Xiaoduo: "It's about the fake Kaiyang thing. , Let’s not talk about the unpleasantness. As soon as I came back, I heard that Tan Jijiu from Qishan Academy was made sick by our family. What happened?”
“Grandpa, he was the one who said something rude to my mother. "First, Kaiyang couldn't hold it back." Kaiyang responded in a low voice.
Seeing his grandson's appearance, Wei Junpei hurriedly said: "You did the right thing. He is my good grandson, Wei Junpei. Unfortunately, I was not there at the time and did not see his deflated appearance with my own eyes."
"Hey, Grandpa, you Don't you blame me for not respecting elders?" Kaiyang was a little surprised.
Wei Junpei laughed: "You are defending your mother, and my grandfather is not an old fool. Why should I blame you?"
Hearing this, Kaiyang immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes. Fahrenheit looked at Looking at her son's cute little appearance, she lovingly dipped the freshly peeled shrimps in the seasoning and fed them to her son's mouth.
"Thank you, mother." Kaiyang opened his mouth to bite the shrimp into his mouth after thanking him. It was at this moment that he really removed the barrier in his heart in front of his family.
"That boy from Prime Minister Dong's family is quite sensible now, but he doesn't..." Mr. Wei was just halfway through speaking when the concierge came to report that the Sixth Young Master from Prime Minister Dong's residence had arrived.
Wei Junpei tugged at his beard speechlessly, saying that this man couldn't help but talk about it.
“Where are the others?” Wei Zizheng asked quickly when his father didn’t respond.
Hearing this, the concierge pointed to the door with his hand.
I really don’t blame him. He really knows that his young master calls that uncle and he is very close to him. He doesn’t dare to hang out outside the house when they come. I wanted to invite people to the living room to wait, but they insisted on following me!
"Uncle Yuefan is here." Kaiyang couldn't sit still after hearing this, got up and walked out the door.
Hong Xiaoduo always paid attention to the reactions of the people in the Wei Mansion, and saw that they did not frown or look displeased at Kaiyang's actions, which made him feel more relieved.
Everyone left their seats and went outside. When they saw the situation outside, they were all stunned.
"Master Wei, Madam." Dong Yuefan greeted a few people with fists in his hands, and then winked at Hong Xiaoduo.
If they hadn't known that this boy really regarded Hong Xiaoduo as his sister, the Wei family would have just winked at him and ordered their subordinates to beat this deceiver out.
What's wrong with Prime Minister Dong's son? It's not okay to molest the benefactor of the Wei family in public in their Wei family!
"When we were at the villa last night, didn't you and Kaiyang both say you liked watching fireworks? I just wanted to let you two have a great time watching it. Unfortunately, there are still several months before the Chinese New Year, and everyone I haven't done it yet.
I took my people and searched all the firecracker shops within a hundred miles of the capital, and I just wanted to give them more money. Let the artillery craftsman rush to make some, but after asking, I found out that making fireworks and firecrackers requires gunpowder, and that thing needs to be registered and approved by the yamen before it can be purchased. The procedure is quite troublesome.
So, let's just make do with these. See?
If there is a chance in the future, I can do more?" Dong Yuefan pointed to the fireworks tube beside him and said with regret.
After hearing what Dong Yuefan said, the eyes of everyone in the Wei Mansion became much softer when they looked at him. Just because of a word from Kaiyang and Xiaoduo, he mobilized all his troops to look for fireworks everywhere!
No wonder I didn’t hear anything about him. It turned out that he was busy with this. He is really an unscrupulous guy, but he is doting on his own children!
So, we were only halfway through dinner, and we were watching fireworks in the yard. If it wasn’t the New Year or the festival, there were so many fireworks!
Looking at Kaiyang taking the thick incense prepared by Dong Yuefan and lighting the first firework twist under his guidance, Hua and her mother-in-law Qi exchanged glances with each other and resisted the urge to step forward. to stop it.
Fireworks explode into the sky, blooming colorfully, one after another. The entire night sky lit up, and the light reflected on the faces of everyone in the yard. Master Wei and Qi, Wei Zizheng and Hua, a family of four from two generations, seemed to have discovered for the first time that fireworks are so beautiful.
After the first fireworks ended, Hong Xiaoduo lit the second one. This one's fireworks were like a meteor shower and like fireflies dancing in the dark night.
Immediately afterwards, Kaiyang lit the third one, and Hong Xiaoduo was next... Exactly half an hour later, the yard was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the air was filled with mist and scraps of paper. Slowly falling to the ground.
At this point, Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang, one big and one small, were still holding the thick incense, looking around to see if there was anything left that had not been lit. Dong Yuefan almost said, wait until the Chinese New Year for you two to order and watch enough, but he thought that Hong Xiaoduo would not stay in the capital for the Chinese New Year, and he would leave the capital for the border military camp in a few days, so he would definitely not be able to celebrate the Chinese New Year. He was back, so he couldn't say this promise.
It is precisely because of this that he went through such trouble.
After seeing Dong Yuefan off and not having any more dinner, Mr. Wei asked Hong Xiaoduo if he was tired. If not, he could sit in his study.
Kaiyang habitually raised his feet to follow, but Hua grabbed his sleeve and shook his head slightly. Only then did Kaiyang realize that his grandfather had something to tell his mother alone, and he should be the one pretending to be one of his family members. thing.
As soon as Hong Xiaoduo arrived in the study, two bowls of shredded chicken noodles were brought to him from the kitchen.
One old man and one young man showed off their faces by purring, and then Mr. Wei started talking about business.
It turns out that the reason why he left the capital was to find the son of the fake Tong'er's father, Shao Huaiqing, who was Qi's cousin and the sister-in-law of Wei Junpei.
Wei Junpei told the people he sent out at that time that after finding Jiang Yumin, he told them directly that the counterfeiting had been exposed, and if he still wanted to see the child again, he should do it himself.
However, the people who came back reported that Jiang Yumin had died of illness a few years ago, and her husband suffered a stroke in the spring of this year and was bedridden and was delirious.
So I found Jiang Yumin’s eldest son, Shao Huaiqing. I first conducted a secret investigation and found out that Shao Huaiqing had five children in total. The youngest one was about the same age as Kaiyang. He hadn’t seen much of it a year ago. It is said that Because he was weak, he was sent back to his hometown to be raised.
After confirming these, the people sent by Master Wei formally met with Shao Huaiqing and told him about impersonating the grandson of Wei Shangshu.
But Shao Huaiqing refused to admit it, saying that he didn't understand what was said and had no choice but to escort him back. He was placed in a village outside the capital. When Wei Junpei went there, he didn't see the boy. Instead, he ordered someone to interrogate him for what he heard next door.
It turns out that when Shao Huaiqing was a boy, he heard his father beating and scolding his mother when he was drunk, and then he learned that he was not the biological son of the sixth-rank magistrate.
So, Shao Huaiqing went to question his mother, but his mother Jiang Yumin refused to tell. Shao Huaiqing went to his grandmother to find out.
After learning that his life experience was so miserable, but his biological father was a high official in Beijing, Shao Huaiqing was very unwilling. He wanted to obtain fame and went to Beijing to appear in front of his biological father and tell him his life experience, thinking that he would Recognize him.
However, for several consecutive years, his reputation has declined.
A year ago, when Gu Shangshu returned to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors, he passed by the place where Shao Huaiqing's cheap father worked. As a local official, he had the opportunity to receive the Shangshu. It was a rare opportunity.
During the banquet, the accompanying officials scolded Wei Junpei in order to please Shangshu Gu. The magistrate of Shao County might have been a little drunk at the time. I don’t know what he said specifically, but the old fox Gu Shangshu smelled something strange and went to meet Shao alone. After chatting with the county magistrate, he approached Shao Huaiqing and said that as long as he was willing, he would help him get everything that originally belonged to him.
Shao Huaiqing had long known from his mother that his biological father was stubborn and old-fashioned. He would rather have his reputation damaged than accept his mother.
So, Shao Huaiqing followed Gu Shangshu's suggestion and arrangement and handed over his youngest son to the people sent by Gu Shangshu.
Every other matter was arranged by Gu Shangshu’s people.
Hong Xiaoduo also knew what happened next.
After hearing what Mr. Wei said, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but smile and said: "Uncle, do I want to congratulate you? You can be considered to be full of children and grandchildren."
When Wei Junpei heard this, he glared at her and said, "I only have one son, Wei Zizheng, and one grandson, Wei Kaiyang."
"Then I would like to ask my uncle how he dealt with it in the end..."
