古董下山 (ENGLISH: Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain)

Chapter 14 - Good Days Are over Part 2

And so, Wei ChengShu watched as his own dog happily followed WeiXi out the door.

Not long after, the sounds of hammering could be heard from outside. 

Butler Zhou almost collapsed earlier when WeiXi asked him for a wooden plaque and a hammer to make a sign at the front entrance. Now seeing that second master also didn't try to stop him, he stomped the floor with worry: "Now what are we going to do. Sir is going to come home to his house in this kind of state, he's going to blow his temper for sure!"

Wei ChengShu hesitated and decided to follow after him after all. Immediately he saw two people busy at the gate. WeiXi swung the sly hammer and seriously looked for a good position. Every so often he hammered a few hammers in a favored spot, selecting really carefully and finally found the most satisfactory place. Without even turning his head, he addressed the little white face with a fit body: "Disciple, go bring me the sign I wrote."

But this person never needed to move. Mike, who was nearby watching their every move, instantly jumped up.

He found with unmatchable accuracy the sign that Weixi needed. It was a wooden sign. On the top, ink was used to write the three large characters of TaiCang Sect. Wei Chengshu subconsciously appraised it and thought that the writing was pretty good, but this wood, why does the board seem so familiar?

Butler Zhou rushed out of the house with tearless sobs, and cried: "Why did you even dismantle the doors ah!"

Wei ChengShu: "......"

The size of the board made it very difficult for Mike to carry in his mouth. The only way is to bite onto a corner and drag it along the floor, but this didn't discourage Mike one bit. Rather, he was working at it like a hard earned treat. He was ready to fight when faced with the butler blocking his way, baring his teeth, staring intensely with a crazed look in his big blue eyes.

Butler Zhou wasn't brave enough to get on this little boss's bad side and had no choice but to step around him to work on WeiXi, grabbing his arm. He was so troubled he almost knelt down: "Eldest master, eldest master, you can't do this ah, eldest master. We can ignore the fact that you dismantled the door but what's the meaning of hanging it outside like this?? When Sir gets home, he's going to be mad for sure!"

WeiXi didn't listen to any of it and said: "You came at the perfect time, the door is too unstable. Hold this place steady for a second."

Butler Zhou ran back in to talk to Wei ChengShu: "Second master, quick, you have to think of something. Have you forgotten how angry Sir was the last time Madam had people change out the sofa cushions?"

Of course Wei ChengShu has not forgotten. His head is hurting even worse now than when he first woke up hungover. He stared in front of him expressionlessly, thinking never before in his life had he experienced such a speechless situation: "What kind of idea could I have?"

Butler Zhou really felt like crying now. He watched helplessly as WeiXi continued to instruct Tuan JieYi to twist metal wire onto the door. In an act of total desperation, he took out his cell phone and dialed Wei TianYi's number.

Wei TianYi was currently attending an Expo and happened to be in the middle of a meeting. In the morning, his son's rebellious attitude almost angered him to death. Now he was very dissatisfied with the butler's untimely call: "What's so important that you have to call right now!"

Butler Zhou apologized and after stating the chaos at home, Wei TianYi sounded like he was about to collapse immediately: "What! Tell that rabbit bastard to stop immediately!"

Phone in hand, butler Zhou looked towards their family's second master. Wei ChengShu hesitated for a second, then took the phone and walked towards WeiXi. He said, very seriously:  "Dad has something to say to you."
