Chapter 9-4
Qin Fang never thought about this problem.
In his opinion, his great-grandfather and great-grandmother are the most ordinary and immoral old men. Could it be that they have secrets?
Moreover, is this secret related to Si Teng?
It's incredible and ridiculous.
Si Teng said: "I was buried in Nangqian, and you are about to kowtow to the so-called ancestors."
I know Shao Yankuan, and his factory once had business dealings with the town where your great-grandfather is. Do you think this is just a coincidence?
Anyway, I don't believe it.
Your father asked you to go to Nangqian, and it was impossible for you to go door to door. Have you ever given you any clues?"
Qin Fang thought for a moment: "My father said that you can find someone named Jia Guihong. The area around Nangqian is a Tibetan settlement area, and there are very few Han people, so even though it has been many years, it is still not difficult to find out carefully.
Unexpectedly, the Yushu earthquake in the past few years affected Nangqian, and many villages had moved to the site.
Do you know this Jia Guihong?”
Si Teng was obviously quite unfamiliar with this name: "Is there only a name?
What else have you said, what does this person do?”
"It is said that he was a rickshaw driver... and he was traveling three at home, and people usually call him Jia San."
Si Teng didn't say anything anymore, but judging from her expression, Jia San was obviously a sudden appearance without trace. What else did Qin Fang want to say when his phone suddenly rang.
It was Shan Zhigang who called him, and he said that Qin Fang had already asked him to inquire about Shao Yankuan's descendants.
Shao Yankuan's descendants were actually the ones he had in Shanghai. They had been in the middle of the old generation, and they had never left the area of the old Huangpu District after being influenced by the older generation, who would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong.
After inquiring, I found out that my fate was not very good, but I would not be in a bad state. My great-grandson was named Shao Qing, who was in his thirties. He had a small restaurant in less than 20 square meters on Yunnan Road, a famous food street in Shanghai, which also made boxed lunch takeout.
When Qin Fang and Si Teng arrived, it was noon on the third day. When the takeaway in the lunch city was the busiest time, Shao Qing had a pair of aprons on his clothes and sat at the counter to answer the takeaway phone call: "Which building?"
Is it the one behind Leffus?
Three servings of Kung Pao Chicken Dice Gourd Rice, the right amount is right, the Alla Order Rice is delivered with fruit, the honest and affordable amount..."
The phone hung up and looked up and saw Si Teng and Qin Fang, with a smile on their faces. There was also the insight and hesitation unique to the businessman: "Are you two... having a meal?"
The temple cannot entertain the great Bodhisattvas. These two guests, especially the female guests, don’t seem to be able to condescend to eat in a small and broken store like their own.
Si Teng didn't speak immediately.
She previously thought that since she was Shao Yankuan's grandchild, she would have some traces of his shadow, eyebrows, eyes, words, and things.
Unexpectedly, it was completely different from Shao Qing in front of her. She was thin and had her facial features tugged together. Her eyes were full of wise and merciless. This sudden huge contrast made her feel a little dazzled for a moment.
If you don’t eat, then you’re not a guest?
Why are you blocking the door? Do you still want to do business?
Shao Qing was not as enthusiastic as before: "What are you doing?"
Seeing that Si Teng was a little lost, Qin Fang understood her mood quite well. He cleared his throat and spoke for her: "You are Mr. Shao, are you?
Do you have time?
There are some things about your great-grandfather Shao Yankuan, we want to know about it."
"Isn't my brain?"
Shao Qing felt that he was having a crazy problem, "Nonggang arrest?"
Qin Fang couldn't understand Shanghai dialect, but he knew it was not good things, so he was not angry. He smiled at Shao Qing, took out his wallet, and red banknotes with a 100 yuan coupon were stacked one by one on the counter.
After five pictures, Shao Qing's face calmed down, his eyes hesitated, and he looked at Qin Fang and Si Teng. He seemed to be unable to understand, but it was not so thorny. Qin Fang saw it and continued to add it to him. When he was about a thousand, he stopped.
"Mr. Shao, there are some things about your great-grandfather Shao Yankuan. We want to know about it, the price is easy to discuss."
Shao Qing was a little stunned, and his Adam's apple rolled gently, glanced at the stack of banknotes quickly, and quickly moved away, but he couldn't help but glance back. Si Teng glanced at Qin Fang and chuckled slightly.
Shao Qing invited Qin Fang and Si Teng to the second floor. Like many shops converted from old lofts in Shanghai, the first floor business and the second floor living room were very cramped, and it was very cramped when you turned around.
Shao Qing made tea for them, Lipton's tea bag and boiled water were brewed with a large cup of green. Because Qin Fang made it clear that he didn't understand Shanghai dialect, Shao Qing began to try to speak Mandarin very badly.
"My great-grandfather was so angry that he had to take away the family's money and even my great-grandmother's jewelry. He fled Taiwan with his third wife, and no one in his family said that.
The grandma later found out that she was so angry that she fainted on the spot.
Is it ruthless and unrighteous? Is it a slaughter?
If you don’t bring your wife, you will be so ruthless and unrighteous?”
"After my grandmother woke up, she couldn't swallow it in one breath. The clothes that my grandfather didn't have time to take away were cut by her with scissors and made into mop cloths. Later, she cut the photos and cut them from her neck. After cutting them, she took them out and threw them away. After throwing them back, the stool was not hot yet. My third uncle ran in from outside and shouted, "It's very good to wash, it's very bad to wash, it's very bad to cover the boat!"
"I later learned that the Taiping Wheel on my great-grandfather collided with the Rong freighter, and there were no people on the boat. I heard that those days, the wrecked sea were all the victims' suitcases - when I fled to Taiwan, I brought all my wealth... Oh, I'm talking about it, and I'm talking about my third uncle."
"My grandma's eyes were straight and her legs were weak when she heard this. She didn't respond for a long time. The third uncle pinched the man and pinched him back. After waking up, she cried and shouted at the sky and asked someone to pick up the photos, but she couldn't find them all. As she put them together, she only found a few photos."
Shao Qing can only remember this about Shao Yankuan. Of course, these are not worth the money they received, but what should I do? Those who don’t know can’t be edited.
In order to make up for it, he enthusiastically asked the two to drink tea: "Drinke more, drinking tea is good for the health..."
Si Teng asked him: "Are those photos still there?"
Shao Qing was very sure: "When my grandma died, I burned two pieces, but the rest were left, there must be some, I will flip through them."
He rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, bent down and drilled under the bed, stepped on the stool to the top of the cabinet. After that, he excitedly brought the album to the album: "I have a bribe, I'm here."
It is indeed an old photo album, with frosted paper protective paper, and the photos are all with lace and corners. Si Teng took it over and opened it. The first few pages are all Shao Yankuan, either wearing a suit or a wool coat, and there is also a picture leaning against an old car with a tall figure and thin lips. Although the photos have been soaked in the water for a while, it does not prevent him from seeing that this is indeed a handsome and elegant man. I believe that at that time, he will be the one who can also be the one who can confuse the wife and lady.
Continue to flip back, this one is really strange. It is the size of a complete photo, but there is obviously someone on Shao Yan's wide edge that has been cut off.
Qin Fang looked at Si Teng, and saw that she had no objection, so he helped her turn the page back. This time, almost the moment she opened it, Si Teng changed her face. She reached out to hold the page down, staring at the person on the edge of Shao Yankuan.
That man, wearing a bulging Taoist priest robe, may rarely face the camera, and always seems a little embarrassed to put his hands and feet without knowing how to put them.
Taoist robe?
In the midst of lightning, Qin Fang suddenly reacted: "Master Qiu Shan?"
"Um."
Taoist Master Qiushan and Shao Yankuan?
Qin Fang vaguely felt something was wrong, but hesitated for a while and then flipped back. There was no photo of Shao Yankuan.
There were indeed only a few pictures. Qin Fang turned back another page, pointed to the photo of the person who had been cut off and asked Shao Qing: "Is this the third wife?"
"I took all the photos of my third wife, but I didn't leave them behind. I guess I knew that my grandmother would hate her, for fear that she would leave the photos and be used to stab the villain by her grandmother... This is a photo of my second wife."
Si Teng suddenly asked: "Do your grandmother dislike the second wife very much? Why did she cut off her photos?"
"This is not cut by the grandma, it was cut by the grandma himself."
Shao Qing seemed to suddenly remember something again, and took it out and told it to others as if he offered treasures.
"I heard that this second wife is very weird, and has a strange origin. She is not close to anyone in her family. Sometimes she will not see each other for several days inexplicably. Every time she doesn't see her, her grandfather never asks anyone to look for her... Later, I heard that the second wife was pregnant and was almost born, and suddenly she left somewhere and never came back.
After several months, there was a Taoist priest... Look, it was in the photo below. He came to find the great grandfather. He asked someone to find all the things that the second wife used to burn. There was also a photo of the second wife who had to burn them all. The Taoist priest said that there were others in the photo, but it was not good to burn them together, so he cut them and left them."
"I can't figure out what's going on, why are I involved with a Taoist priest? There are many relatives in the family. Some say it's a husband, some say she will do evil ways... You also know, superstitious in that era... When I was a child, my grandmother scared us with her second concubine."
Si Teng took the photo out of the corner of the card. It was obviously just a cut hole, but she looked at it for a long time and finally asked Shao Qing: "Do you know what the second concubine's name is?"
"Name..." Shao Qing was asked, "It's really not clear. I heard that his surname is Shi or Si..."
Si Teng laughed, she was so angry that she was laughing. Shao Qing was a little nervous when she smiled, and she shrank back uneasyly.
Si Teng said: "No matter how, Shao Yankuan knelt down and proposed to marry into your Shao family, how could he not even know the name of someone else?
You remember, her name is Si Teng."
At that time, Shanghai not only popular films, but also Beijing operas. If the actors in Beijing and Tianjin really became famous, they all got Shanghai Baiwai. There were many theaters in Shanghai and famous actors in Liyuan, and the limelight was overwhelming movie stars.
Shao Yankuan often took her to watch the show. The stage was performed on that stage, sometimes the white snakes flooded the golden mountain, sometimes Guan Gong protected his wife for thousands of miles, and the beautiful and ugliness of the golden mother-in-law, and the gorgeous oil paints curled her face, and the eyes were hanging, and her outfit was dazzling. One appearance won the whole hall and started singing.
She was quiet when watching the show, and after watching it, she always liked to say, "It's all fake."
