Chapter 252: Busy supporting the family in the foreign land
Uncle Zeng Bao couldn't figure it out, and neither could the Japanese.
After the things were shipped back to the mainland, things turned out to be even more exaggerated than Lu Pingsheng had expected.
Not only do all the major local departments want to get a piece of the pie, even the nobles are eyeing it, and it is said that the royal family has also expressed interest.
For this reason, the things had been kept at the dock, waiting for them to compete. However, the news leaked out somehow, and they also experienced two small-scale robberies during this period.
It was not until ten days later that the masters finally reached a consensus, divided the cake, and prepared to register and distribute it.
But their finance minister opened the box with joy, and was slightly stunned when he saw it was full of stones.
"Is this some new treasure?" He turned and asked the person who was recording beside him.
A man wearing glasses and looking like a scholar came closer to take a look and said seriously:
"This should be a precious stone from the East, its value is inestimable."
The finance minister was delighted. "Yoshi! Take note of a box of precious stones from the East."
The recorder next to him quickly wrote it down.
But the person who was looking through the list of property handed over by the Hirata family frowned slightly.
Then he thought: Maybe there were too many things and something went wrong.
In addition, when these things were in the market, they were embezzled by someone, so the order might have been disrupted.
But when they opened the 30th box of precious stones, even the fool knew something was wrong.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer pulled the scholar behind him and asked, "Why are there so many stones?"
The stones in the box are actually broken stones that can be easily picked up from the riverside.
One box can be considered special, but thirty boxes in a row are...
The scholar also felt that something was wrong, so he quickly ordered someone to open the remaining ones.
The angry and terrified voice startled the people outside who didn't know what was going on.
----------
After a freezing rain, the temperature suddenly dropped.
Three of Wei Ran's classmates fell ill at once, and it was said that many people in the school were suffering from colds and coughs.
Wei Miao waved his hand and decided not to go to school.
In her opinion, health is the most important thing and living a healthy life is better than anything else.
At home, Xu Ayu was in confinement after giving birth, Uncle Wu was recuperating from his injuries, and Wei Ran, Wei Ling and Ping Mei were all lying in bed.
Fortunately, Wei Li took the initiative to take on the task of taking care of the young patient, and she ran around Dr. Xue like a qualified little nurse.
"Li Mei is patient and careful. She is a potential doctor."
Doctor Xue took the temperature of the three little ones and changed Uncle Wu's dressing. Then he washed his hands and chatted with Wei Miao.
After Li Mei washed her hands, she handed over a clean towel. Dr. Xue wiped the water droplets off his hands and rubbed the pretty girl's head.
"Thank you, Li-mei."
"You're welcome!" Li Mei answered generously, with two blushes on her cheeks, looking very cute.
Wei Ada asked Dr. Xue, "Do the children need to take medicine today?"
Doctor Xue shook his head and said with a relaxed expression:
"Children recover quickly. If they are fed well and given a good night's sleep, they will be full of energy."
Wei Miao saw Dr. Xue off and saw from afar Lu Pingsheng, wearing a windbreaker and carrying things in his hands, walking towards them.
She calculated the time and found that half a month had passed since the incident. It seemed that the truth had finally been exposed.
Lu Pingsheng exchanged a few words with Dr. Xue, and then saw the little kid in a gray-blue cotton jacket with his eyes rolling around.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Pingsheng walked forward and handed her the chestnut cake in his hand.
Wei Miao took the two chestnut cakes and muttered, "It's not enough."
Lupin laughed angrily, "This is not for you, this is for the patients."
Wei Miao curled his lips.
Every time Wei Ada saw Lu Pingsheng, he rubbed his hands with joy and was very enthusiastic.
"Mr. Lu seems to have gained some weight."
After Wu Ma brought the hot tea, Wei A Da stared at Lu Pingsheng's round face and said.
Lu Pingsheng pinched his face subconsciously and chuckled, "I have nothing to do these days. I eat and sleep, sleep and eat, so I naturally gain weight."
Wei Ada expressed his opinion sincerely, "Being fat is good, and fat people are blessed."
Lu Pingsheng murmured in his heart, is it really so obvious?
As an intelligence officer, being fat is not a good thing. What if you can't run fast when escaping?
In the past week, in order to find out the situation in the local area, I have been eating and drinking too frequently with those bastards from the General Administration of Customs.
It seems he needs to restrain himself.
If Wei Miao knew that Lu Pingsheng wanted to restrain himself in things, he would definitely not understand.
Lu Pingsheng exchanged a few words with Wei Ada, and after failing to invite him to have lunch, Wei Miao took him to the study.
After entering, Wei Miao stretched out his hand.
Lu Pingsheng knew her character and took out two large yellow croakers from his briefcase and gave them to her.
"Thank you." Wei Miao smiled happily with sweet dimples.
Lu Pingsheng raised his hand to check the time and said to Wei Miao:
"Let's go check out your store across from the police headquarters and treat Deputy Chief Inspector Wu to a meal."
Lu Pingsheng told Wei Miao not to worry about this matter, and Wei Miao knew that Lu Pingsheng would take care of it.
Now that someone is taking care of her, she is naturally happy to have some free time.
After all, on the surface, she is Lu Pingsheng's little follower.
The two of them went to see the three sick kids, and were able to go out safely only after they promised the little follower Weidong that he would bring her pear syrup candy.
When I was walking at the intersection, I happened to see Uncle Zeng Bao getting out of a car.
His face not only looked pale, but also a little tired.
Xiao Qian supported him step by step, his face full of worry. When he saw Wei Miao and the others, he just greeted them and thought about going home quickly to prevent the young master from catching a cold.
The man carrying a suitcase next to them was wearing a long gown, with a smile on his fair baby face and a strange arrogance flashing in his eyes.
After getting in the car, Wei Miao looked at the backs of the three people and said:
"Mr. Zeng seems to be ill."
Wei Miao is very sensitive to smells. Uncle Zeng Bao has always been in poor health, but he is taken good care of by Xiao Qian and looks no different from an ordinary person.
Lu Pingsheng originally wanted to say that it is normal for people with many schemes to have poor health.
But he thought about the huge aftermath, which would be very troublesome for a normal person, let alone someone with poor health.
The two of them tacitly stopped talking.
The car turned a corner and arrived at the gate of the Police Headquarters where Wu Ziyang was.
After waiting for a while, they saw Wu Ziyang and a woman in a dress coming out together.
The two of them were talking and laughing, and seemed very familiar with each other.
Wei Miao opened the car door, "Little Angkor, here."
Wu Ziyang strode over, and Wei Miao could see the woman's appearance clearly.
Wu Ziyang looked at her with eyes wide open and laughed, "How is it? Does it look like you?"
Lu Pingsheng was a little surprised when he looked at the woman in front of him with long and narrow eyebrows, a turned-up nose, red lips, and dimples when she smiled.
This is simply the adult version of A Miao in women's clothing.
"Let me introduce you. This is Xiaolin Ying, Xiaoya's former classmate."
When Lu Pingsheng heard the Japanese name, no matter what he thought in his heart, a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Ah Miao, go ask your mother and her family if they have any relatives in Japan."
Wei Miao tilted her head and looked at Xiao Lin Ying who was looking at her with a smile, and also grinned.
This made Lu Pingsheng and Wu Ziyang gasp.
They had never seen two people, one big and one small, who looked so alike. Even when they smiled, the depth of their dimples were almost the same.
