Chapter 177: Renovating the Old House to Get Out

"... Zhou Laixi's family is expelled from the clan!"

The moment Taigong announced the decision, Zhou Laixi collapsed to the ground, his face full of despair.

Confiscating property and expelling the clan is tantamount to a death sentence for any family.

Although Zhou You's family was not included in the family tree, the old house was still there and the relationship was not completely severed.

In Zhou Lai Xi's situation, he has completely become a lost dog.

"Please spare me, this is unfair to me."

Zhou Laixi cried with tears and snot, and this time he was really crying, without any falsehood.

He begged, and when he saw Zhou You, he suddenly realized, "This kid must have deceived you with his sweet words, Grand Master, listen to my explanation."

Slandering and sowing discord were his specialties, but he didn't expect that he would fall into the trap and have his house stolen by a young boy.

Zhou You watched his performance quietly, still thinking about making a comeback. I’m afraid he doesn’t know what dimensionality reduction attack means!
You are the tool used by Grandpa to do his dirty work, and I, the young master, am his master. How can you turn the tables based on this relationship?

The grandfather waved his hand and said, "Stop talking. The clan rules are merciless. It's also your fault for not living up to my trust."

Zhou Laixi's sons wanted to act tough, so they surrounded him and said, "Grandpa, you are getting old and confused."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tie Niu behind Zhou Laiwei took a step forward and punched without saying a word.

Several big men gathered together, all using the boxing techniques inherited from their families, but their styles were very different.

Tie Niu fought with a completely reckless style. He did not dodge when fighting against many enemies alone, and his punches were as strong as hammering iron or pounding rattan.

Bang, bang, bang, the sound of fists biting flesh was so terrifying that it even made an echo when it hit bones.

A moment later, Zhou Laixi's sons fell to the ground again. This time they were seriously injured and could not get up at all.

"Tie Niu, throw it out of the door and don't dirty the ancestral hall."

At Zhou Laiwei's command, the young man Tie Niu picked up a few whining guys in each hand and threw them out of the gate like dead dogs, splashing a lot of dust on the ground.

Now it's completely quiet.

Zhou Laixi's fate was doomed from the beginning.

The ancestral hall was opened, ancestors were worshipped, incense was burned, and the grandfather knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes, saying to the ancestors that Zhou Laixi, an unfilial descendant, had ruined the family tradition and oppressed the clan members. His crime was unforgivable and he should be expelled from the family...

The tribesmen looked filled with hatred, and looked at Zhou Laixi with eyes that seemed to wish they could eat him. It was obvious that this guy was in trouble.

With a stroke of the brush, the names of Zhou Laixi and his son were crossed out on the genealogy page, and their branch had nothing to do with the Zhou family from then on.

During festivals and ancestor worship, people are not even allowed to get close to the ancestral graves.

"Don't cry, I'll take you out."

Zhou Laiwei stepped forward, picked up Zhou Laixi, who was as soft as mud, and threw him out of the door with a little force.

Zhou Laixi rolled on the ground several times, his silk coat was covered with mud, but his arms and legs were not broken.

Several sons helped Zhou Laixi up, and they limped out of the village, walking farther and farther away.

Zhou You touched his chin. This fourth uncle is quite a character.

Others couldn't see it, but Zhou You knew it clearly. Zhou Laiwei's throw directly broke Zhou Laixi's internal organs, which was similar to the effect of Zhou You's previous punch.

Zhou Lai Xi didn't even have the chance to harbor hatred and seek revenge, as his health deteriorated rapidly and he died suddenly within a few months.

After Zhou Laixi's family was ousted, it was Zhou's father's turn next.

"Laifu, you have been wronged over the years. Well, considering your sincerity, I agree to let you return to the family tree."

The old man looked around with a kind look in his eyes, "Does anyone have any objections?"

No one questioned it and it was passed unanimously.

Old Man Zhou was so excited that he burst into tears and kept saying that Taigong was a kind and righteous man and that he had been deceived by the villain Zhou Lai Xi in the past.

The dark clouds have been cleared away and the blue sky is visible again. Nothing is as good as having your own family!
Zhou You's mouth twitched as he watched. With his father's low EQ, he would have been taken advantage of without his help.

The tribesmen also realized that the real turning point of this matter lies with Zhou You.

After talking to him, Taigong immediately changed his attitude 180 degrees.

The truth is: Grandfather loves this younger generation very much, doting on him to the heavens. "Laifu, come back home more often and get closer to Laiwei."

Just now, Taigong said that Zhou Laiwei was the next recorder he appointed and the head of the Zhou family.

Zhou Laiwei seemed to know something. When facing Father Zhou, his cold face melted a little and he showed a forced smile, "Brother Laifu."

Old Man Zhou returned to his clan family and was immersed in unprecedented happiness.

Zhou You finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, as he finally put his mind at ease.

Next…

“Repairing the old house?”

During dinner in the evening, Old Man Zhou was very excited as he recounted what had happened during the day, with a tone that said good people will be rewarded.

When he suddenly heard Zhou You suggest renovating the old house, he was stunned and began to think about something.

"Dad, this is what I think. My relatives are all having a hard time, so I'd be happy to help them if I can."

"Let's get some more money together and spend some money to repair the old house. Let the villagers help us, pay the wages and provide food, so that everyone can earn some money, at least a few feet of cloth and three taels of meat."

The purpose of proposing to renovate the house is to stay in the hometown for a longer period of time, and to find something for my parents to do so that they don't have to keep an eye on him all the time.

How can I go to Moyun Village to get the treasure if I can't get away?

Father Zhou suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "What a good idea, You'er, you have a really smart brain."

Now that he has returned to the clan and is living a good life again, he cannot let the old house fall into disrepair; he will have to repair it sooner or later.

My son also said that repairing the house requires manpower, so asking family members to help would give them the opportunity to earn some wages and also gain a good reputation.

This is a best of both worlds thing, just do it.

The next day, Old Man Zhou went to Zhou Laiwei to discuss the house renovation.

The old house is too dilapidated. Although it is said to be renovated, the actual project is equivalent to tearing it down and starting from scratch.

Bricks, tiles, wood, stones, lacquer, nails, grain, oil, rice, flour, etc. must be purchased in sufficient quantities before construction begins.

Recruiting people is easy. Zhou Laiwei can control the situation and selects young and middle-aged people who are honest, loyal and capable.

"Dad, I'm going to stay at Grandpa's house for two days and talk to him."

Father Zhou was busy buying supplies and arranging staff. Even mother was busy running around. She didn't even raise her head when she heard him say, "Go and take good care of Grandpa."

Everyone in the village knows that Grandpa loves his son very much. The Lai Fu family is so blessed!

Grandfather's House...

"Don't kneel, Grandpa. It would be embarrassing if others saw you."

When seeing Zhou You, Taigong's first reaction was to kneel down, but was persuaded by Zhou You.

Taigong laughed and said, "There are not many people here, usually not many people come here."

"Young Master, whatever you want to do, just go ahead and do it. I will cover for you."

Zhou You nodded, "Okay then, I'm going to be out for a few days. Tell others that I'm staying at your house. Keep it a secret for me."

"How many days are you going to go?"

Zhou You calculated, "Three to five days at most."

"Okay, Young Master, go ahead."

Taigong agreed readily.

Everything was prepared, his father was too busy repairing the house to pay attention to him, and his grandfather also testified for him.

Finally, we can set off to Moyun Village to retrieve the treasure.

After Zhou You left the village, he called out the virtual face in the armory and squirmed his whole body to transform into the appearance of Lu Zhigang.

The second alias Yan Ping has not yet been developed, and it is not time to use him yet. Lu Zhigang still has to take action to do this kind of thing.
