Chapter 2336 - 2337: Absolutely Not Clean
The next moment, an elderly man of similar age to Qin Pojun appeared in his sight.
The old man was wearing a gray cotton jacket, and his face, marked by the passage of time, was speckled with age spots. His seemingly cloudy eyes occasionally flashed with a sparkling glow, indicating that he was still in robust health!
Upon seeing this old man, Qin Pojun immediately let out a light snort: "Who do we have here, it’s none other than Wei Turtle!"
"But don’t worry, even if you die, I won’t!"
In the capital city, the only person who could joke with Qin Pojun like this, and whose surname was Wei, was none other than the old man of the Wei family, Wei Sanqian!
Wei Sanqian gave a calm smile: "So you’re saying you’re even more of a turtle than I am?"
"I’m no turtle, I’ve evolved to a higher level than you!" Qin Pojun snorted.
"So you’re a tortoise then?" Wei Sanqian softly said, "In that case, we could say we’re kin!"
In Huaxia, there’s a saying that goes, ’a thousand-year turtle, a ten-thousand-year tortoise,’ which describes longevity.
Not giving Qin Pojun a chance to speak, Wei Sanqian shifted his gaze to Ye Xunhuan and softly said: "Young Ye, now that you’ve seen me, give me a call of ’grandpa’!"
Although Ye Xunhuan had vaguely guessed Wei Sanqian’s identity, upon hearing these words, Ye Xunhuan felt at a loss for words.
Why is it that people nowadays all want to be called grandpa, and love making others call them grandson?
"What kind of grandpa do you think you are!" Qin Pojun immediately snorted: "Xunhuan, just call him an old man, no need to be polite to him!"
Wei Sanqian shook his head helplessly and said: "Old Brother Qin, that’s not right. Doesn’t my grandson call you grandpa..."
"I never asked him to call me that!"
Faced with the stubbornness of Qin Pojun, Wei Sanqian had no way to deal with him.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan immediately said: "Grandpa, you chat with Grandpa Wei, I’m going out for a walk!"
With those words, Ye Xunhuan lifted his foot and quickly left the scene.
Although Ye Xunhuan didn’t know why Wei Sanqian had come here, he could guarantee that Wei Sanqian definitely wasn’t here to argue with Qin Pojun.
Moreover, these two old men were of similar age and had been both friends and rivals in the past. Now that they’ve aged, even if they still bicker, they won’t do so today.
After all, today is the most important day in Huaxia—Chinese New Year!
Watching Ye Xunhuan’s departing figure, Wei Sanqian sighed softly, then turned his gaze to Qin Pojun and said somewhat enviously: "Old brother, Phoenix really gave you a good grandson, I’m so jealous!"
Hearing this, Qin Pojun’s face immediately filled with a sense of pride, and he swaggered as he spoke: "Of course, a dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, unlike your son who only knows how to dig holes!"
Wei Sanqian couldn’t help but twitch his lips; he found Qin Pojun extremely annoying at the moment.
"You old thing, stop bragging, and you still talk about dragons and phoenixes!" Wei Sanqian said disdainfully: "Your genes must be twisted, otherwise how could you have a daughter like Phoenix!"
"Damn it, I’ve got strong genes..."
"Yeah, right, I used to know what you were like!" Wei Sanqian said scornfully: "In today’s terms, you were just an idiot!"
"You..."
"Luckily, Phoenix inherited more of her mother’s genes; otherwise, if she’d inherited yours, she’d be doomed!"
Three black lines slowly appeared on Qin Pojun’s forehead: "Wei Sanqian, are you here today to pick a fight with me?"
"If I could piss you off to death, I wouldn’t mind arguing with you!" Wei Sanqian said proudly.
"I won’t die, just to piss you off!" Qin Pojun snorted coldly: "Why are you here, say what you’ve got to say, or get lost if it’s nothing important!"
Faced with Qin Pojun’s unfriendly attitude, Wei Sanqian didn’t bicker with him, but said somewhat head-achingly: "Old Brother, I’m troubled by something!"
Upon hearing these words, Qin Pojun’s face lit up with a smile and he seemed very interested as he asked: "What’s troubling you, tell me and make my day!"
This was Qin Pojun finding his happiness in others’ misery without any disguise!
However, Wei Sanqian didn’t hold it against him, after all, they’ve been rivals for half their lives and understood each other well.
"It’s my little rascal!" Wei Sanqian said with a troubled expression.
"Wei Zixu?"
"Who else could it be but him!"
"What did he do now, getting into trouble again?"
"This time I wish he did get into trouble!" Wei Sanqian said helplessly: "Even if he got into a fight with Rumeng and you gave him a beating, I’d be more than happy!"
Hearing this, Qin Pojun sensed that Wei Sanqian might really be facing a troubling issue, so he stopped joking and earnestly asked: "What exactly did he do?"
Wei Zixu, the madman of the Wei family, was someone whom almost no one in the capital wanted to associate with or befriend; he was practically a lone ranger.
Wei Sanqian sighed slightly and said: "You know, I’ve always had headaches over this kid’s marriage. Didn’t I talk to you last time about finding someone for him..."
"I know about this, that girl is pretty good, deserving of your grandson." Qin Pojun immediately interrupted: "What, did she reject him?"
"If she rejected him, that would’ve been just fine!" Wei Sanqian said full of melancholy: "But isn’t today the first day of the new year? I took him to pay a New Year’s visit, hoping they’d get to know each other!"
"That sounds right!"
"But who would’ve thought this foolish boy, after realizing what I was up to, directly told the girl he had a girlfriend, and told her to give up, even said she was unattractive, and that she’s wasting air by being alive..."
Qin Pojun couldn’t help but burst into laughter: "Then you got kicked out, right?"
The girl whom Wei Sanqian found for Wei Zixu was also known to Qin Pojun. Although her family wasn’t top-tier in the capital, they were quite decent, and the girl herself was quite good-looking. Most importantly, she had a very gentle temperament.
"We didn’t get kicked out, but later I asked that kid. He told me he had a girlfriend. I asked about her background, and he knew nothing!"
"Didn’t you look into it?"
"I did, but it’s full of holes!" Wei Sanqian sighed again: "That girl is definitely shady!"
