chapter 4 Dog meat on the table

by Aurora 17:51,Nov 20,2023


the Knuth Family is somewhat famous in Cloud city, a mini third-tier city. Although compared with those big aristocratic families, it is not worth mentioning, but compared with Blind Clinton and John Wilson's small shop, it is simply a chaebol-like existence!

Why is John Wilson uncomfortable? Because the Knuth Family is where he will marry in the future, in other words, John Wilson is the future uncle of the Knuth Family! A poor boy who would lick his lips even if he drank sugar water, but wants to marry into a big family that is neither in the upper class nor in the lower class. To outsiders, all the vicious scenes in those marriage-in-law novels will immediately appear before their eyes!

Of course, John Wilson knew that this marriage was like boiled water to him. He would not get married, nor would he be serious with the Knuth Family. He just didn't want to disobey his father and be a Blind Clinton! What's more, Lilli Knuth didn't look at herself at all. She had said it first, and whoever played it seriously would die badly.

Why did a poor boy from North City get involved with a rich girl from The western the city?

In fact, the origin of this incident is a bit strange. It happened three years ago!

It is said that the old man the Knuth Family was critically ill at that time, so he asked "Blind Clinton", the famous "Mr. Yin and Yang", to come over and show him the cemetery. I don't know what kind of bad luck Blind Clinton had, but he somehow managed to make Mr. Liu recover. Mr. Liu burst into tears with gratitude and asked Blind Clinton if he needed help. He said that the Knuth Family would definitely satisfy him.

Who would have thought that Blind Clinton made a shocking statement and said: Please bring my adopted son into your marriage!

the Knuth Family considers itself a small and famous family, so naturally the whole family is opposed to it. No one wants to let a poor boy who plays with ghost tools enter the Liu family. However, Mr. Liu was so proud of his face that he kept his word. In the end, he abided by his words and insisted on appointing Lilli Knuth , the eldest daughter of his youngest son Geek Knuth, to John Wilson as his fiancée.

Originally, this was already a "dark moment" for the Knuth Family, but for some reason, this matter was reported to Cloud city's entertainment tabloids and city forums. It caused an uproar and was used by several large and small newspapers and magazines. The headlines reported on the engagement ceremony the Knuth Family! John Wilson still remembers the headline on the black and white paper like an obituary: The wealthy the Knuth Family has entered the funeral industry in Cloud city; the cold-faced daughter sacrificed her life to become a blind young lady!

The vicious ridicule made the Knuth Family extremely ugly! On the day of the engagement, not only were there no guests, but most of the Knuth Family didn’t come to attend!

From that day on, John Wilson became a joke and a source of conversation for everyone in Cloud city. The name "Blind Young Master" was originally a joke in the neighborhood's alley, but now it has become known throughout the city. It has been passed around, and there is an additional prefix in front of it - the soft-boiled Blind Young Master!

Today is the day when Mr. Liu moves to his new villa, and it is also the Dragon Boat Festival. According to the Knuth Family's custom, there are three festivals and two birthdays a year, and all clan members must be present. Therefore, John Wilson, a low-class future uncle, has to appear in the hall of the Knuth Family like a human being. The best situation is that he hides in a corner and spends the night doing nothing. The worst situation is that he has to face a group of cross talk. Of course , the Knuth Family is a group, he is the cross talk...

After uncle Green left, John Wilson took a shower, put on his only suit, and went straight to the Knuth Family on his big feet!

"Hey, the fourth master's future brother-in-law, the blind young master, is here!" The disciple of the Knuth Family winked and smiled!

John Wilson had long been accustomed to the tone of the Knuth Family. Even though the person who laughed at him was just a gatekeeper, John Wilson still smiled indifferently and entered the gate alone!

By the time John Wilson arrived at the hall, the entire the Knuth Family family had already arrived. Only Mr. Liu, his wife and Lilli Knuth had not arrived!

As usual, no one cared about John Wilson's arrival, and John Wilson also understood the situation, put down his things and walked to the corner alone.

"Hey, isn't this Wang? Wang Jie... Ba? Why don't you go into the crowd!" Suddenly, a loud voice attracted everyone's attention.

The person standing in front of John Wilson and speaking was Mr. Liu's second son, Aldrich Knuth. He was also the third figure in the Knuth Family business and was responsible for public relations and channels.

Mr. Liu has four sons in total, and they are called "loyalty, filial piety, justice", preceded by the word "Quan"! John Wilson's nominal father-in-law Geek Knuth is the fourth child, so John Wilson has to call Aldrich Knuth the second uncle!

"It's me, second uncle. My John Wilson, not Wang Stutter!"John Wilson knew that the storm was coming again, but he still stood up and said politely!

Such cowardice made everyone chuckle.

"Hey, John Wilson or Wang Stutter, A Mao or A Gou, who cares!?" As soon as Aldrich Knuth said this, everyone burst into laughter, Aldrich Knuth still didn't finish his meaning and said: "Boy, today's housewarming, what did you bring to your grandparents? Good stuff?"

John Wilson said calmly: "I feel ashamed to say that I can't compare to you. I only brought two kilograms of snacks to the old man..."

"You ask me to tell you what you are good at. Young man, guarding a dead man's shop. How can our the Knuth Family's uncle do this? Besides, these cheap snacks are high in sugar and fat. Are you trying to make my father and I Are you happy because your mother's diabetes and high blood pressure have relapsed?"Aldrich Knuth scolded with a cold face, and threw the snacks that John Wilson had placed on the table into the trash can!

John Wilson was a little embarrassed and lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry, second uncle, I didn't think about it that much..."

"What's the use of apologizing to me? You're stammering. You've brought a lot of embarrassment to our the Knuth Family. Can you stop being so shameless and have such a shameless attitude?"Aldrich Knuth shook his head and said with a sly smile: "Let's do that. In order to make the old man and the old lady happy, I will give you the gift I prepared for the old man. If you can recognize a word on it, I will give it to you as a gift to honor your grandparents, and also make Lilli Knuth look good, okay?"

Everyone knows that this is just another game. Aldrich Knuth not only wants to be in the limelight, but he also has to step on this loser's nose to gain the limelight!

John Wilson was not stupid, but he had no choice. Blind Clinton had told him not to offend the Knuth Family no matter what! Regardless of whether it is foolishness and filial piety, or whether he is a bitch, he has to listen to the Blind Clinton anyway!

"Why are you so embarrassed, second uncle, I..."

"Don't be embarrassed! I haven't finished speaking yet. The premise is that you must know a word above. If you don't know a word, then I'm sorry, I can't give you this calligraphy and painting. You have to perform a show! I listen. He said that blind fortune tellers are good at dancing. You and your blind godfather have also learned it, right? Why don't you show us your skills? Haha!"

"Haha, this loser is going to do a great dance!"

"I really don't know why he has the nerve to come. Is our the Knuth Family short of two kilograms of snacks?"

"Hey, he is so poor that he can only afford rags! Hehe, the filial second brother has an idea, it's fun!"

The crowd laughed and whispered, but John Wilson was like a light on his back!

"Second uncle, you are interested, but I have prepared the gift, so I won't bother you to worry about it!" While the relatives were gloating over the misfortune, a cold voice came from the door!

It's Lilli Knuth!

John Wilson raised his head and looked at Lilli Knuth, feeling relieved!

To be honest, he and Lilli Knuth had not met many times since they got engaged. If it weren't for the three festivals and two birthdays, he would have forgotten what Lilli Knuth looked like!

On the day of the engagement, Lilli Knuth coldly told John Wilson that he knew John Wilson was also innocent, but she would not really marry him out of pity and let him give up. If this kind of engagement relationship continues like this, when the two old men who are in charge of this farce, Mr. Liu and Blind Clinton, are put to death, they will break up! Lilli Knuth also told John Wilson to rest assured that on the day of separation, John Wilson will not lose a penny of the money that belongs to him! But please don't have any crooked thoughts!

The money Lilli Knuth mentioned was actually the property of the Knuth Family!

When Mr. Liu chose Lilli Knuth to recruit a son-in-law, Geek Knuth refused to agree to anything. He also hoped that his daughter would find a rich son-in-law to improve his status in the Knuth Family. But Mr. Liu was anxious and said that only if Lilli Knuth and John Wilson got engaged, would there be property belonging to Geek Knuth's family. Otherwise, not a dime of all the Knuth Family ancestral property would belong to them! Geek Knuth had no choice but to agree to the marriage!

John Wilson had no reason to disagree with Lilli Knuth 's words. Because he could agree to the engagement just because of Bill Clinton! If Bill Clinton dies, nothing will matter to him!

Today, Lilli Knuth is dressed solemnly yet stylishly. She has long black hair, a shawl as thick as black, and a white gauze skirt. Her skin, which is already crystal clear as jade, reveals a cold and quiet beauty against the backdrop of the white gauze!

Lilli Knuth came over and glanced at himself coldly. Only then did John Wilson realize that his gaze was a bit rude just now!

"Xiaoshan, what's wrong? Are you feeling sorry for your fiancé? Who's out there?"Aldrich Knuth said with a half-smile, "Recently, after your grandfather made you the manager of the branch, you are a bit arrogant!"

"What are you talking about!"Lilli Knuth said expressionlessly: "You are my second uncle and the superior of the head office. I don't dare to be rude to my second uncle for personal reasons! However, no matter how bad John Wilson is, he is still my fiancé. , it depends on the owner to beat a dog, not to mention he..."

"Just know that he is a poor dog. Dog meat is dog meat. He will never make it to the table!" A fat woman with heavy makeup came out and snorted: "Your second uncle is just having a fight with this Little blind Man who sells paper. What a joke, why do you want to refute your face? Do you still know the relationship between seniority? If you feel embarrassed, just break the engagement with this bitch!"
