Chapter 1403 The Old Man’s Thoughts
Then Mu Lao died unjustly.
Everyone among them knows that every work in Gumuxuan is the result of Mr. Mu’s own hard work.
Gumuxuan also accepts special customization.
Mu Lao is a true master of wood carving.
Although he always says that he is still some distance away from being a true woodcarving master, in their eyes, Mu Lao is an absolute woodcarving master.
Whether in terms of technology or artistic ethics.
Mu Lao deserves it.
Maybe they are unprofessional.
However, anyone who has seen the old man carving...will have the same idea -
The old man's sincere devotion to wood carving alone is enough to make people admire him.
……
"This little Zhou..."
Some people sighed and shook their heads.
"Who is it?"
Some people were angry, "Is it really that deceptive?"
"I don't know if Mr. Zhou knows about this?"
Some people also raised doubts.
……
There was a lot of whispering around, but Mu Lao didn't pay any attention.
Before he even stepped into the antique shop, Mr. Zhou, attracted by the noise at the door, came over to greet him. "Lao Mu, Aying, how did you find time to come to my place?"
Mr. Mu runs Gumuxuan. He doesn't hire anyone in the shop, just two old people looking after it.
Except when the store is closed, the two old people rarely go out of the store.
Especially when two of them come out together.
Old Zhou's heart moved, and he looked past the two old men in front of him and glanced at the people outside who seemed to be gathering around him. He had some guesses in his mind.
He looked at the old couple again, frowning slightly, "Old Mu, Aying, did something happen?"
"Let's talk after we go in."
As he walked along, Mu Lao's mood regained some calmness.
Besides, it is not known whether Mr. Zhou knows about what his son has done. Mr. Mu does not have the habit of venting his anger on others.
"Ah, oh."
Although Mr. Zhou was puzzled, he quickly nodded and said, "Come in then."
……
The old lady closed the shop door behind her.
The light in the room suddenly dimmed.
Mr. Zhou was stunned and looked at the closed shop door, but didn't say anything.
I didn't ask the old lady why she closed the door.
The solemn expressions on the faces of the old couple Mu were obvious.
He thought, maybe something really big had happened?
But what big thing do you want to tell him?
Mr. Zhou was puzzled.
Could it be... that this big event has something to do with him?
……
"sit."
Mr. Zhou motioned for the two elders to sit down, then picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea.
"Drink tea."
He pushed the teacup in front of the two elders and said, "You came just in time."
"The water has just been boiled."
Mu Lao was not in the mood to drink tea.
There is no detour plan.
He is a straightforward person.
"Old Zhou, do you know what your son did?"
Mu Lao went straight to the point.
After knowing that, he was in a bad mood, or rather, terrible.
The words that came out of his mouth sounded a bit hard.
……
"weekly?"
The old man was surprised.
Zhou Zhou is Xiao Zhou’s nickname.
Because both Mr. and Mrs. Zhou had the surname Zhou, they gave their son this nickname.
However, due to my resistance, now only Mr. and Mrs. Zhou call me Xiao Zhou.
"What's up with him?"
"What did he do?"
Mr. Zhou's expression also became solemn.
He just guessed wrong.
Isn't this matter related to him? It's actually related to his son?
He had no choice but to treat his son's affairs seriously.
……
"You really don't know?"
There was a hint of sharpness in Mu Lao's eyes.
Mr. Zhou did not evade the question, "I really don't know."
"Don't keep me in suspense."
"What happened to Zhou Zhou?"
"What did he do?" "During this period of time..."
Mr. Zhou fell into deep thought, "Nothing went wrong..."
……
"He bought a new car."
Mr. Mu's inexplicable words left Mr. Zhou confused.
Mr. Zhou nodded hesitantly, "Yes, Zhou Zhou bought a new car a few days ago."
"……What's wrong?"
Is there any problem with his son buying a new car?
"Did you give him the money to buy the car?"
Mr. Mu did not answer Mr. Zhou's question, but continued to ask.
"no,"
Mr. Zhou shook his head, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up a little, "This was bought by the kid with the money he earned from picking up bargains."
There was a hint of pride in his words.
"Ah."
Mu Lao couldn't help but sneered, "The money earned from picking up leaks..."
"Did he tell you that?"
"Yes."
"Is there anything wrong?"
The smile on Zhou Lao's face disappeared, "Old Wood, don't be so sarcastic."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
"What do I want to say?"
There was a hint of anger between Mu Lao's eyebrows, "What I want to say is where did your son get the money to buy a car!"
"he……"
Mr. Mu controlled his emotions and recounted the whole incident in detail to Mr. Zhou.
He also realized from the previous conversation that Mr. Zhou had no idea what his son had done.
Even Mr. Zhou was deceived by his own son.
Money earned from picking up bargains?
What a great excuse!
……
The more Mr. Zhou listened, the uglier his expression became. There was still some disbelief in his eyes. "Really?"
"Could it be a mistake?"
"Zhou Zhou would never do such a thing."
"He told us that the money was earned from a chance to make money."
'He can't lie'
Zhou Lao murmured in a low voice.
The hands on the table clenched into fists.
That child.
"Whether it's true or not, just call Xiao Zhou over and ask him and you'll know."
Seeing Mr. Zhou's look, Mr. Mu felt a little reluctant.
But Xiao Zhou's behavior really crossed his bottom line.
He won't back down.
"I hope that's not true."
"I watched Xiao Zhou grow up."
“He shouldn’t be like this.”
Mu Lao paused for a moment, but did not say the word, ".'s child."
"If I'm wrong, I apologize."
"but-"
Mu Lao said word by word, "If Xiao Zhou really did this..."
"I have only one request."
"He went to get the wood carving back."
"I want my wood carving back."
"I'll give Xiao Zhou a different gift."
“But it won’t be a wood carving made by me.”
"oh oh."
Mr. Zhou responded blankly, then smiled bitterly, "I want the wood carving back."
This is not easy to do.
He went to the person's house in person and explained that what he was selling was not a Qing Dynasty wood carving, but a modern wood carving.
The other party will find it very confusing, right?
Maybe you will even suspect that they have ulterior motives?
Another thing is that most of the money the other party paid for the wood carving was used by Xiao Zhou to buy a car.
Mr. Zhou felt quite pressured to come up with 500,000 yuan at once.
He shook his head.
Will not.
He believed in his son.
My son would never do such an extreme thing.
Old Wood just misunderstood.
Yes, that's right, there is definitely something wrong about this.
After Mr. Zhou tried hard to convince himself, he took out his cell phone and called his son.
