90s: You are all reborn, who will spoil you?

When Xie Yan saw this, her brows furrowed and a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

She gently put down the family tree in her hand, and her fingers tapped unconsciously on the armchair, making a subtle and rhythmic sound, which was the outward manifestation of her chaotic thoughts.

She needed time to digest it. Just a dozen lines of text made her feel like she had traveled through time and space, met the ancestors of the Xie family, and felt the oppression of the old era.

In fact, the so-called clan is a scary thing, right?

She remembered that Lin Luping had said in her previous life that there was a family at the foot of the mountain, also surnamed Xie, who were collateral relatives of the Xie family not recorded in the genealogy.

When she was in her teens, Xie Jianhua took her back home, and the family suddenly disappeared.

She asked her parents out of curiosity, but Lin Luping told her a long time later that the Xie family at the foot of the mountain had gone to Taiwan.

Xie Yan's great-great-grandfather was the descendant of Xie Gaoyuan who remained in the country. Many years ago, Xie Gaoyuan's descendants came to the inland from Taiwan to look for relatives. They tried every possible means to find out a little information about the Xie family.

When the Xie family from Taiwan traveled through mountains and rivers to Xiangjiazhai, Shiweng Village, Lianghe Town, they saw the Xie family at the foot of the mountain at first sight.

Once the two sides recognized each other, the Xie family's collateral relatives at the foot of the mountain pretended to be Xie Yan's lineage and followed them to Taiwan, so Xie Yan saw people who lived well suddenly disappear during her childhood.

Thinking of this, she recalled an old story.

Lin Luping seemed to have mentioned that the Xie family members living at the foot of the mountain were also expelled from the family tree and driven down the mountain by her great-grandfather.

She didn't know what had happened and no one told her, but she later felt that it was a good thing for her relatives at the foot of the mountain to follow Xie Gaoyuan's descendants to Taiwan to develop.

After all, Taiwan at that time was richer than the inland areas.

Xie Gaoyuan's background seems to be developing very well in Taiwan.

Xie Yan put down the family tree in her hand. While she was thinking, Yang Qin had already gone to the orchard.

Xie Yan couldn't help but want to go out for some fresh air and feel the vitality and vigor of nature.

So she took a step forward, walked through the familiar bluestone road full of traces of time, and came to her grandmother's orchard.

The orchard in summer is a fairy tale world kissed by the sun.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled light and shadows, adding a bit of mystery and fantasy to this green ocean.

Yang Qin planted grapes, hairy peaches, and green plums in the orchard for summer, and pears, grapefruits, oranges, and persimmons for autumn.

We also planted the old-fashioned, ungrafted watermelons in the fields, and one watermelon could even grow to about 20 kilograms.

Xie Yan strolled along the path in the orchard. The soil under her feet was soft and moist, and occasionally she could see a few small insects busy flying through the grass.

She reached out and picked a ripe peach. The surface of the peach was covered with fine hairs and had an attractive pink color.

Xie Yan carefully peeled off the peach and took a light bite. The sweet juice burst out in her mouth, making her intoxicated.

In a corner of the orchard, Yang Qin was busy pruning the branches of the fruit trees. Her movements were skillful and powerful, and it was obvious that she liked this kind of life very much.

Xie Yan walked over and called softly, "Grandma."

Yang Qin raised her head and saw Xie Yan. She was a little confused: "Yan Yan, why are you here? Have you finished watching? Do you want to try the plums that grandma just picked?"

Xie Yan took the plum handed to her by her grandmother. The plum had thin skin and thick flesh, and was sweet and sour, leaving a lasting aftertaste.

"Grandma, why on earth did you ask me to look at the family tree?"

When Yang Qin heard Xie Yan's question, the scissors in her hand paused slightly, then she shifted her gaze from the fruit tree in her hand and looked at Xie Yan quietly.

The summer breeze blew gently, lifting a few strands of silver hair from her forehead. Yang Qin's eyes were full of years of precipitation and tenderness.

"Yan Yan, I asked you to look at the family tree because you are your father's heir."

Yang Qin's voice was low and magnetic, and she seemed to see other people through Xie Yan's face.

"Each of us has the responsibility to understand our own family and our own history. Only in this way can we understand where we come from and where we are going. And the person who receives the family tree will be the patriarch of the next generation of the Xie family."

When Xie Yan heard this, the plum in her hand slipped unconsciously and rolled onto the mud at her feet, but she was completely unaware.

She opened her eyes wide and looked at her grandmother in shock, as if she had heard the most incredible thing in the world.

Becoming the patriarch of the Xie family? In her opinion, this was simply a huge joke.

"Grandma, I've never thought of becoming a veterinarian, or rather, I've never thought of becoming a doctor." Xie Yan's voice was somewhat indifferent, and she quickly waved her hand to refuse, "So I'm not my father's heir."

Seeing this, Yang Qin's face showed a smile of determination.

She slowly walked to Xie Yan, bent down, picked up the fallen plum, gently wiped off the dirt on it, and then handed it to Xie Yan again.

"Yan Yan, don't be so quick to refuse. Your talent is the best among the children of this generation. Only you can inherit the future of the Xie family."

Xie Yan took the plum from her grandmother's hand, but had no intention of tasting it.

Her thoughts were like fallen leaves blown away by the wind, drifting everywhere.

She recalled the horrific or tragic stories in the family tree, and the ancestors who gave everything for the family.

She even thought of the details of her father’s death in her previous life. Just this flash of inspiration made her feel cold all over!!!

"This is the new China. There is no need for clan power." Xie Yan's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but every word revealed her determination.

Yang Qin patted Xie Yan's shoulder gently, with encouragement and trust in her eyes.

"Yan Yan, you can do it. I've observed you for a few days, and you really can do it."

Having said that, Yang Qin paused, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, she continued, "You are the most suitable person in my mind."

Xie Yan listened to Yang Qin's words and looked up at her, her eyes flashing with naked rejection. "Grandma, I refuse."

After saying that, Xie Yan turned around, took firm steps, and ran towards the small house at the edge of the orchard.

There, there are several heavy family tree volumes.

Back in the cabin, Xie Yan was breathing heavily.

Her memory returned to her past life...

In her previous life, she was almost eaten up by her relatives.

When she saw the family tree, she felt that the records on it were terrifying.

But when she connected the family tree, clan leader and so on, she realized the fear belatedly and was so frightened that she was shaking all over.

In his previous life, Xie Jianhua gritted his teeth and lived with Lin Luping for Xie Yan, and the two of them had even reached the point of fighting each other.

From the time Xie Yan was ten to eighteen, her parents had fought countless times.

From the beginning, she would run out crying and knock on her neighbors' doors, asking them for help.

Later, whenever Xie Yan saw two people fighting, she would quietly close the door and ignore them.

After all, one of them was determined to get her custody, while the other refused to divorce and said he was enduring for her.
