[Rebirth] Medical Family

There is no need for Ou Zixi to worry about business. According to Lu Jingnian, he only needs to take care of the store he opened with Oscar.

Although the cosmeceuticals encountered various resistances after they were launched, his and Oscar's shops were not affected much. On the contrary, the business has been thriving. Whether it is the medicinal restaurant on the first floor or the beauty salon on the second floor, there are a lot of customers every day.

Oscar was also in the shop when Ou Zixi went. Seeing him alone, he asked him, "Where's my cousin? Didn't he come back today? Didn't he come with you?"

"Go to Beijing."

"Going to Beijing again?" Oscar was a little surprised when he heard that, "Why did you suddenly go to Beijing again?"

Ou Zixi told him about the phone call, and Oscar was even more surprised: "Why did he suddenly change his attitude? It can't be a trap, right?"

"What kind of trap could it be?" Ou Zixi shook his head: "What else can we be tricked by?"

"...Forget it, my cousin is not such a careless person, and if something is wrong, I won't let them talk about it."

Although Ou Zixi was also a little worried, he felt that Lu Jingnian should be able to handle this matter well, so he didn't think too much about it.

Then three or four days passed like this. On this evening, Ou Zixi and Oscar were having dinner in the store. The person who had been to Beijing for several days and hadn't contacted him finally called, with a brisk smile in his tone: "Zi Xi, the matter has been settled, very smooth, the preliminary cooperation intention has been negotiated, and the contract will be signed in two days."

"So fast? You haven't met a liar, have you?"

Lu Jingnian smiled even more happily: "Little doctor, why do you always think that I will meet a liar?"

Ou Zixi pouted, he wasn't the only one who said that, Oscar still suspected that it was a trap, it really went too far.

"Don't worry, I'm not a liar. Next month, our products will be available in department stores across the country."

Lu Jingnian comforted him, but Ou Zixi was still a little skeptical: "Then did you ask why they suddenly changed their attitude?"

Mentioning this, Lu Jingnian was also very puzzled: "I asked, but they didn't say it clearly, but I heard what they said, it seems that someone is behind to help us."

"Help us? Who will help us?"

"I don't know. They didn't say anything. In fact, I can't figure out who would help us in this way. Moreover, this company has always been a partner with Ruiling and has a lot of business dealings. Before, it was because of Ruiling's face that they rejected us. Now They would rather offend Ruiling and cooperate with us, and the people who help us behind the scenes are really big, and they can immediately make such a 180-degree turn in their attitude."

"...Oh, forget it, let's talk about it when you come back."

Ou Zixi hung up the phone, feeling even more surprised, could it really be that Grandma Chen?

While Ou Zixi was on the phone with Lu Jingnian, Oscar on the side was boringly pressing the remote control to switch TV stations, but at this time, almost all channels were broadcasting news from CCTV, and there was really nothing interesting, so in the end, just forget it and turn the remote control on. Throw it aside and watch the news.

Both of them were eating with their heads down, and didn't notice what was broadcast on the news, until an employee in the store exclaimed: "Boss Ou, isn't that your product?"

Ou Zixi and Oscar looked up at the same time, and the TV news was broadcasting that the leader of a certain country was going to an African country for a state visit, and he was giving a meeting gift to the leader of the other country and the wife of the leader. One of them is their hardcover set of cosmeceutical and skin care products. Others include silk, tea, etc., all of which belong to the quintessence of Chinese culture.

Ou Zixi's eyes widened in surprise. The smile in the news was gentle and elegant. The Vice Premier of the State Council who was shaking hands with the leaders of other countries turned out to be the Grandma Chen he had met in the village that day!

Seeing that Ou Zixi was already stupid, Oscar pushed his arm: "Brother Zixi, what's going on?"

Ou Zixi came back to his senses and shook his head, also with a hellish expression.

"Then why do our things get such high treatment? Such a good thing can't just be luck, okay? Don't you know? Does my cousin know?"

Ou Zixi lowered his head and continued to eat until the news was over, and the employees in the store went to work after eating, and then whispered to Oscar who was still muttering about what happened in the village that day.

Oscar was so surprised that he almost rolled his eyes: "You mean you ran into a private visit from a national leader? She is still your grandma's old friend?"

Ou Zixi smiled and nodded: "I even invited him to dinner at home, and then I accidentally mentioned the cosmeceutical, and she said she would find a way to help me, but I didn't take it seriously at the time, thinking she just said it casually."

"No wonder, before my cousin spent so much time running and broke his leg, those people refused to cooperate, but now he suddenly changed his attitude, and even called directly from the head office to ask my cousin to sign the contract..."

As Oscar spoke, he felt like he was dreaming, and he couldn't help but look at Ou Zixi with admiration: "Brother Zixi, with you, my cousin will really turn around."

"..."

Ou Zixi didn't know what to say at all for a moment, no wonder she felt that Grandma Chen looked familiar that day, she had seen it on the TV news before... But in the end, it should be considered a great good thing, right? ?

☆, Lu Xiaogong goes home

With the help of this noble person from heaven, things went much smoother. Before, Lu Jingnian ran around begging for cooperation with them, but now business came to him one after another, letting him choose. Before returning from Beijing, he said he was going to Shanghai to talk about the next partner.

Listening to his strong nasal voice on the phone, Ou Zixi was worried, "You're sick again, don't work too hard, you can't finish the business, come back quickly if you can't hold on."

The person over there smiled, although the nasal voice was heavy, but with a smile that couldn't be concealed, "Zixi, don't worry about me, I won't let my body break down, I'll go back in a few days."

"Love comes back and doesn't come back."

Ou Zixi hung up the phone, but when he looked up, he saw Oscar looking at him with malicious intentions and smiling, and suddenly became angry: "What are you laughing at?"

"Brother Zixi, do you always talk like this with your cousin?"

Ou Zixi was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Oscar lowered his head and grinned sullenly, duplicity, speaking completely ruthlessly, and he would only do this to his cousin.

It has been a month since Lu Jingnian came back. During this period, the two kept calling each other every two days. Lu Jingnian did not talk to Ou Zixi about business matters, but he often talked about where he went today and what he ate. Add a sentence: "It's not as delicious as your cooking, little doctor."

On the day Lu Jingnian came back, he called Ou Zixi before boarding the plane. Ou Zixi was in the store at the time. He heard from Lu Jingnian that he would be home in three hours. He repeatedly confirmed with him that he would not run away because of a phone call today, and he got a positive answer. Afterwards, he said "Safe trip", hung up the phone, took the key and was ready to leave.

Oscar called to stop him: "It's only two o'clock, why don't you leave?"

"Go back, your brother will be back in the afternoon."

Then without telling him too much, I went to the supermarket to buy ingredients when I left the store.

When night came, Lu Jingnian finally dragged the huge suitcase and opened the door of the house. The smell of vegetables filled the room, and when he heard the sound, the people in the kitchen poked their heads out: "Come back Alright, wash it off and eat right away."

At that moment, Lu Jingnian really had the urge to burst into tears.

The four dishes and one soup are already on the table, light and delicious stir-fried shrimp, fresh and refreshing water bamboo and fresh vegetables, braised steak with soft meat and sauce, tender and delicious lemon-flavored sea bass, and the last dish, rich and delicious Scallop rib soup.

Ou Zixi put the bowls and chopsticks on the table and motioned him to sit down: "Didn't you always complain that the food outside is too greasy and unpalatable? Eat it."

Lu Jingnian, who was sitting at the table, was stunned for a moment, took his hand, and pulled him to his side. His hands touched his waist. The little doctor was still wearing an apron on his chest, but there was not much smell of oily smoke on his body. For a moment, Lu Jingnian felt his nose A little sour, after a long time of silence, I finally choked out a sentence: "You seem to have lost weight."

Ou Zixi pushed his head: "You are thinner, thin and sloppy."

Lu Jingnian laughed: "It's okay, is it that exaggerated?" But he knew that the little doctor probably committed another cleanliness obsession.

"Don't be serious, let's eat first, the food is going to be cold."

Ou Zixi said so, and Lu Jingnian was also happy to accompany him. In fact, he was still a little dizzy after sitting on the plane for several hours. stand up.

Ou Zixi asked him while picking up vegetables, "Are you cured?"

"It's much better," Lu Jingnian said with a smile, "I've signed six contracts this month, all of them are big distributors, not only have physical stores, but also telemarketers, and even people from Hong Kong have come to invite us to discuss cooperation Intention, the harvest is not bad, right? It won’t be long before our products can be seen everywhere in the market.”

Ou Zixi ate calmly: "That's good, the matter is finally settled."

"I still want to ask you. I've heard what Oscar said. It's all thanks to the help of your nobleman that this matter can go so smoothly."

Ou Zixi smiled dryly, and said with a little embarrassment: "Actually, I really don't know her very well."

It's only been that one time.

Lu Jingnian didn't take it seriously: "She's giving you a lot of face by being willing to help you like this, and it's impossible for her to really get to know each other. She's also afraid of getting into trouble, isn't she?"

Ou Zixi nodded, although the other party did help them a great favor, but from the beginning, he had no intention of contacting them later, and of course they were very knowledgeable and would not trouble others.

After dinner, Ou Zixi went to wash the dishes and asked Lu Jingnian to go take a bath, but Lu Jingnian didn't do it, but posted it to disturb Ou Zixi's work, so he pasted it to his ear and whispered: "Don't clean up, go take a bath with me first. go."

Here it is again, Ou Zixi secretly rolls his eyes, it's like this every time, he insists on dragging him to wash with him, even if he won't agree nine out of ten times, but Lu Jingnian just refuses to let it go, he has to repeat this every time Boring to propose.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, you go in first, and I'll get the clothes."

When the goal was achieved, Lu Jingnian smiled secretly in his heart, even if nine times out of ten he would not agree, but as long as he agreed once, it would be an extra benefit.

Lu Jingnian obediently went into the bathroom. Ou Zixi took the clothes and dawdled outside for a while before pushing the door of the bathroom. As soon as he turned the handle, the door was pulled open forcefully from the inside, and his slippery hand stretched out to hold it grabbed his wrist and pulled him in.

Ou Zixi stepped on the water in the bathroom and almost slipped. When he fell forward, Lu Jingnian hugged him with both hands and hit his chest.

The other party had already taken off his clothes and hugged him naked, the clean clothes in Ou Zixi's hands fell all over the floor.

Lu Jingnian ignored him, bullied him and pressed him against the door and kissed him. Ou Zixi pushed his shoulder twice, but if he couldn't push it away, he had to forget it, and closed his eyes in despair.

No matter how many times he has done it, Ou Zixi will still feel shy at this time, and his face will turn red immediately. Lu Jingnian hugged him and kissed him for a while, and finally let him go, sticking to his ear and chuckling: "It's very nervous?"

"The clothes fell on the floor." Ou Zixi answered the wrong question.

"Don't worry about it, just throw it in the washing machine for a while and change into a clean one."

"Obviously it's clean..."

Lu Jingnian didn't want to entangle him with such a small problem, so he kissed him again.

Ou Zixi closed his eyes again, it was too shameful to do such a thing in the steaming bathroom, even if there were only the two of them here, he was still embarrassed.

"I'll take my time, don't be nervous." After a pause, Lu Jingnian said softly again: "Zixi, I miss you very much this month."

Ou Zixi's heart moved, and he slowly relaxed his body.

Lu Jingnian comforted him patiently. Ou Zixi couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. He didn't reject or even like doing this kind of intimate things with Lu Jingnian, but he was more used to doing it on the bed instead of in Yuba like this. In the blindingly bright bathroom, he was forced to have almost nowhere to hide.

Being pressed against the door, he raised one foot, opened his body and was entered, felt the kisses falling on his body, and was hit by someone under his body, Ou Zixi, whose body is very sensitive, still couldn't help moaning softly Yin took a breath, and the hand on Lu Jingnian's shoulder unconsciously grasped tighter and tighter.

In the steaming mist, Lu Jingnian looked at Ou Zixi's blushing face, feeling a little satisfied in his heart, kissed him again, licked him slowly to comfort him, and the movements under his body became gentler than ever before.

An hour later, Ou Zixi, who was too tired to move, collapsed on the bed. He had already changed into clean pajamas. After he was satisfied, the man who was satisfied with his smile walked back and forth in the room to pack his things, reminding him from time to time: So fell asleep, got up and blow-dried my hair."

"You're really diligent today." In the past, he was obviously lazy every time he came back and refused to pack the messy luggage. In the end, Ou Zixi, who couldn't see it, mostly helped, but today he was so diligent that Ou Zixi would even look sideways.

Lu Jingnian smiled cheekily: "I'm more energetic today."

"..." I really had the face to say.

Lu Jingnian took out the signed contracts and handed them to Ou Zixi. Ou Zixi didn't know much about this, so he just glanced at them casually. They were indeed the top-ranked companies in China, and even he was impressed. So he asked Lu Jingnian out of curiosity, "So... is this just letting you go?"

"Otherwise, what can I do? I said that he can't cover the sky with one hand, and he himself is in a bit of trouble now, so he doesn't care about me anymore."

"What trouble is he having?"

Lu Jingnian, who was packing his clothes, turned his head and glanced at him: "Why are you so concerned about his affairs?"

"Just asking casually," Ou Zixi pouted, "I care about you."

Lu Jingnian smiled, climbed onto the bed, squeezed Ou Zixi's nose and kissed his lips again: "Don't worry, he has no time to trouble us now, he made a wrong investment decision earlier, and he was under a lot of pressure within the company's board of directors , now all the treasures are put on the project of that resort, but when the first phase of the project will be completed by the end of the year and the second phase will start, they will probably come to you again to talk about demolition. "

"Ignore him." Ou Zixi said firmly.

"The demolition fee is a lot of money." Lu Jingnian reminded him funny.

"I don't care about the money."

Lu Jingnian smiled even more happily: "Yes, you are also rich."

The contracted medicine field alone has tens of millions of income every year, who cares about the demolition fee.

☆、The third uncle committed suicide

After the market was opened, things went smoothly. In that whole year, their business was booming. The popularity of their products was even more exaggerated than what Ou Zixi had imagined before. There were rave reviews from all sides, and the sales of their products were monopolized in just a few months. At the top of the market, various orders are continuously coming from all over the country and even overseas. Lu Jingnian is still running everywhere, busier than before. Later, he introduced foreign capital to expand the scale, and he was so busy that he could hardly walk. Stained.

Fortunately, everything is moving in a good direction.

Ou Zixi's own store business is also getting more and more prosperous, plus the annual income from the mountain medicine field, it is indeed as he said, he is not short of money.

But he is not short of money, which does not mean that those who are rushing to demolish his house to build a resort will not come to him.

The first phase of Ruiling's project in the village next door to them is about to be completed, and the second phase is about to start. Now all the people in the village have been evacuated, leaving only Ou Zixi and the third uncle's family.

It dragged on for more than a year, no matter how the demolition party raised the price, or even threatened and lured, the third uncle just refused to let go. As for Ou Zixi, he was pestered several times, but in the end they all returned in vain. The attitude is that you will never move, no matter how much money you give.

In the middle of the night, when Ou Zixi and Lu Jingnian were sleeping in a daze, the phone rang loudly. Lu Jingnian turned over and pressed Ou Zixi's arms, not wanting to talk to him. After all, he could stay at home for a few days. Was disturbed by something.

But the phone rang persistently, over and over again, and finally Ou Zixi got annoyed, threw off the quilt and sat up, turned on the bedside lamp, and got out of bed to answer the phone.

The crying voice on the other end of the phone was Mao Douer: "Master... woo... my grandfather drank the pesticide... and now he is foaming on the ground and can't get up... woo... Master..."

Ou Zixi was startled when he heard this: "Where's your mother? Is there anyone else in the village?"

"No... Mom left two months ago and hasn't come back... Woo... The village is empty..."

Mao Douer's mobile phone was given to him by Ou Zixi in the village half a year ago, so that he could contact him conveniently, and it came in handy now. Ou Zixi became anxious when he heard this, and told him: "Call 120 for an ambulance, I will Go now."

Lu Jingnian on the bed also wobbled and sat up. Seeing Ou Zixi getting dressed in a hurry, he asked him in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"Modou'er called, saying that third uncle drank pesticide." Ou Zixi said while throwing the clothes on the ground on Lu Jingnian: "Hurry up, get up too, take me back to the village, go now."

While putting on his clothes, Lu Jingnian muttered, "Why did he drink the pesticide? Did he commit suicide?"

Ou Zixi shook his head: "Modou'er was crying on the phone and couldn't explain clearly. I don't know. I told him to call 120."

"In a ravine like your village, 120 can't make it through..."

"That's why I told you to take me back, hurry up!"

Fifteen minutes later, the two of them took the elevator directly to the underground parking garage. Lu Jingnian drove and took Ou Zixi back to the village.

Before driving, Lu Jingnian glanced at the clock, it was one o'clock in the middle of the night...

The car was bought more than half a year ago for the convenience of business negotiations. Originally, every time Ou Zixi went back to the village, he would take the bus and never let Lu Jingnian give it to him. Today he had no choice but to worry about it in the middle of the night.

Lu Jingnian glanced at Ou Zixi leaning against the windowpane looking out of the window, frowning in a daze, and sighed inwardly.

When the two of them arrived at the village, it was already past three o'clock. The car drove directly into the village and stopped at the third uncle's house. Ou Zixi opened the door and got out, first running into the yard.

The third uncle fell on the ground in the main room, Mao Douer squatted on the ground and kept crying, when he heard the footsteps, he turned his head and saw that Ou Zixi was coming, and immediately rushed forward, crying, "Grandpa is dead!"

Ou Zixi was stunned for a moment, walked forward, squatted down next to the third uncle and looked, the body was already hard.

Lu Jingnian also walked in, frowned when he saw the situation before him, and asked Mao Douer: "Did you call 120?"

"I hit it..." Mao Dou'er choked up and said, "I don't know the exact location here, they couldn't find it, and then grandpa died..."

Lu Jingnian had no choice but to see Ou Zixi squatting next to the third uncle's body in a daze, and went up to give him a hand: "Everyone is gone, don't look, let's carry him to the bed and send him to the mountain for burial tomorrow."

Ou Zixi nodded, and asked Mao Douer, "Do you know why Third Uncle drinks pesticide?"

"...Dad signed a contract with those people, took the demolition money and ran away, and grandpa was so angry that he drank pesticide."

"..."

The third uncle's son came back last time and beat his wife and quarreled with his father, and then disappeared without a trace. Unexpectedly, when Maodouer mentioned him again, he was so angry that the third uncle drank the pesticide.

"What about your mother?" Lu Jingnian asked him, "Why are you alone at home?"

"My mother ran away with someone a few months ago, and my sister, I can't get in touch with her either."

Mao Douer's older sister is Wang Xiaoqing, who disappeared early in the morning after her engagement with Ou Zixi was broken off last time.

Lu Jingnian thought that the child was really pitiful, and felt a little sympathetic in his heart, and asked Ou Zixi, "What should I do?"

"Let's take him to live with us first, and we'll talk about it after we bury the third uncle tomorrow."

Lifting the cold body of the third uncle onto the bed, covering the body with a quilt, and closing the doors and windows, Ou Zixi and Mao Douer led back to their home.

Mao Douer was still sobbing and choking, Ou Zixi felt uncomfortable seeing him like this, coaxed him and let him sleep on his bed.

It was almost dawn, Lu Jingnian looked at Ou Zixi who could hardly open his eyes, and said to him, "Hurry up and sleep, sleep for a few hours, and wait until dawn to wake up and talk about other things."

Ou Zixi pouted at Maodouer who was next to him: "The three of us can't seem to sleep."

"Take him to sleep, I'll go to the next room." Lu Jingnian said helplessly.

After sleeping and waking up, it was past nine o'clock. The first thing Ou Zixi did when he woke up was to call a few workers in the medicine fields on the mountain to help. Let's do it, we can't just bury him so casually.

Looking at Ou Zixi's panda eyes, Lu Jingnian knew that he must not have slept well last night, so he pinched his face and asked him, "What about this brat? You can't just ignore him, right?"

Mao Douer is kneeling in front of the third uncle and crying again. Several workers are busy putting on his shroud and carrying him into the coffin. The person who pestered him to agree to sign the demolition contract bought it and put it in his home, and now it really comes in handy.

Ou Zixi thought for a while and said, "Take it into the city, that's the only way to go."

"..." Lu Jingnian said heartily, he knew this was the case, although he sympathized with the child, he really didn't want anyone to interfere in the world of two of him and Ou Zixi.

Because of the hot weather, the third uncle's body was already smelly after only one day, so without further delay, I went to the neighboring village to invite the funeral ceremonial team to come, and in the afternoon, a group of people carried the coffin up the mountain .

Ou Zixi's expression was a bit serious, although he wasn't very sad, it was just a bit embarrassing.

Lu Jingnian looked around, and asked him out of words: "The cemeteries in your village are all here, where did those people move after taking the demolition money?"

"I heard from the third uncle before that there are some who are near here, and some who have gone to the town or entered the city."

"Those people should have taken a lot of money, right? Speaking of which, why is Third Uncle so stubborn? Didn't he just move somewhere, and commit suicide?"

Ou Zixi sighed lightly: "Their ancestors have guarded this place for thousands of years, and if they fail to guard it in his generation, he feels ashamed to see their ancestors."

"..." This kind of concept is indeed beyond the comprehension of people like Lu Jingnian.

After the burial, they had dinner on the mountain again. It was already dark when they came down from the mountain, and it would only be tomorrow to go back to the city. When Lu Jingnian saw that Mao Douer wanted to sleep with Ou Zixi again, he was unhappy and kicked him out: "Go to the next room. , I have something to say to your master."

Mao Douer refused, Lu Jingnian stretched out his hand and rubbed his head; "Hey, go to the next door. If you want to go to the city with your master, you have to stay at my house. You have to obey me obediently."

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, Mao Douer could only reluctantly go to sleep in the next room, Ou Zixi was annoyed: "It's so embarrassing of you to argue so much with a child."

"He's not young, he's j♡j years old," Lu Jingnian said, and asked him again: "You don't really plan to adopt him, do you? It seems impossible for you to adopt him."

"Master Tian and his wife, who are the kitchen helpers in the store, have always wanted to adopt a child. I'll take Maodouer to show them. If they agree, Maodouer is also willing to let him adopt, and I can help take care of him."

That's more or less.

"I said, now you are the only household in the whole village that hasn't signed a contract with them..."

Ou Zixi didn't know about Lu Jingnian's reminder. Instead, he asked him: "Do you want me to sign with them? If you want, I will."

"Actually, if you are the only household left, you won't be able to procrastinate for long." Having said that, Lu Jingnian felt a little unhappy: "Let's procrastinate first."

Ou Zixi smiled, he didn't care anyway.

☆, the tomb of the prince

Early the next morning, Ou Zixi was the first to wake up and saw that Lu Jingnian was still asleep. Thinking that he must be quite tired after working all day yesterday, he let it go, thinking about going to the kitchen to warm up the food he brought down from the mountain yesterday. After a while, he was called to get up again, but when he walked out of the room, he saw that the door of the room next to him was open, and Mao Douer was gone.

Ou Zixi was startled, and shouted several times, but no one answered, and hurried back to the room to wake Lu Jingnian.

Lu Jingnian was still in a drowsy sleep, when he opened his eyes, he saw Ou Zixi's anxious face, he was a little surprised, "What's wrong?"

"Madou'er is gone, get up quickly, let's look for it."

So Lu Jingnian could only hurriedly get up, put on his clothes, jump out of bed and follow him out to find someone.

The two first went to the third uncle's house, but found no one, then searched all over the village, and finally found the person by the pond behind their yard. The child was squatting by the dry pond in a daze.

Ou Zixi breathed a sigh of relief, walked forward but couldn't help but began to complain: "Why did you get up early in the morning and go out without saying hello, we thought you were missing and looked for you everywhere."

The red-eyed Maodou looked up at him: "I'm sorry, I wanted to say hello to you, but you didn't wake up..."

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Ou Zixi couldn't say anything to blame again, so he could only forget it, rubbed his head, then squatted down beside him, and asked him, "What time did you get up?"

"It's past four o'clock...I can't sleep."

Seeing him like this, Ou Zixi felt a little uncomfortable, and comforted him: "Don't think about those sad things, I will take you back to the city in a while."

Mao Douer turned to look at him: "Master, will we come back in the future?"

"I have to come back every month to take care of the herbs. If you want to come back, just come with me when you don't have to go to class."

"Then will you sell the house to those people too?"

Just as Ou Zixi was about to say no, Lu Jingnian, who had already reached the middle of the dry pond while they were talking, suddenly yelled at him: "Zixi! Come and see these!"

Ou Zixi raised his head to look at him in surprise, seeing Lu Jingnian standing in the middle of the pond, waving at him, he got up helplessly and walked over.

There were still some fragments of the messy and withered water plants on the ground. Lu Jingnian gestured with his feet to show him the fragments on the ground that could no longer tell whether they were porcelain or pottery, and asked curiously: "Didn't you say that there are Tang Dynasty pottery in your village last time?" Something? Are these too?"

Ou Zixi only glanced at it and said, "Yes."

"Don't you find it strange?"

"What's strange?"

"Why are there so many of these things in your village?"

Ou Zixi looked at him in confusion: "I don't know..."

Lu Jingnian raised his forehead and was thinking about what to say. Mao Douer, who came with Ou Zixi, squatted down, picked up a piece of debris in his hand, and started talking to himself while looking at it: "Grandpa used to say that our ancestors started from the Tang Dynasty. I moved here, and I still have a family tree at home.”

When Lu Jingnian heard it, he became interested: "Could it be possible that your family still has a family tree handed down from more than 1000 years ago?"

Mao Douer nodded: "I heard from Grandpa that there are, but I haven't seen them."

Lu Jingnian blinked at Ou Zixi: "Shall we visit their house?"

Ou Zixi frowned: "This is not very good, after all, it belongs to their family..."

"What's the matter?" Before he finished speaking, Lu Jingnian interrupted. Lu Jingnian pushed his arm and walked forward: "Let's go, go and have a look."

The third uncle's house is really nothing to see. Since his son ran away, the daughter-in-law didn't bother to take care of the house, and she secretly took and sold valuable things. Now it can be said that the family is poor and empty, and all that is left are some junk. Ou Zixi, Lu Jingnian and Mao Douer searched through boxes and cabinets, but they couldn't find the ancestral family tree that Mao Douer said.

Finally, Ou Zixi suddenly thought: "Isn't there an abandoned ancestral hall in our village? It's just over the back mountain."

When he said this, Mao Douer also remembered: "That's right, I used to go there with someone to catch mice to play, and then I was beaten up by my grandpa."

The ancestral hall is at the foot of the back mountain, with thick iron locks and no windows. From the outside, the door under the eaves is full of spider webs, and the iron locks are even more rusty. I don’t know how many years no one has come. pass.

Fortunately, they had expected this situation, and brought all the tools that pliers and shovels could bring.

After Lu Jingnian was busy, the iron lock finally snapped with a click, and the creaking sound of pushing the door slowly resounded, accompanied by a musty smell.

The ancestral hall is very small, about the size of Ou Zixi's family yard. It is very messy, with weeds and spider webs everywhere. Be clear about what is written.

In the end, Maodou'er got under the table and found the tattered and yellowed booklet hidden in the drawer that had been half eaten by mice.

Lu Jingnian took it and read it, but he couldn't understand the words on it. Ou Zixi took it in his hand, flipped through it, and said in surprise, "This is the last revised version in the late Qing Dynasty. The earliest record is indeed from the middle of the Tang Dynasty."

It was the era when he came...

"Then who lived in this village before?"

Ou Zixi flipped through the book in his hand for a long time, and finally sighed softly: "Tomb guard."

"Huh? Are you sure?"

"I'm sure, it's all written on it. This village is all descendants of the tomb keeper who stayed here back then... A feudal king of that era was buried here."

"..."

Ou Zixi read the book for a while, thinking to himself that he was sent to the guillotine because of the factional disputes in the court, and the disaster started from here, and he really didn't expect...

"Ruiling has invested a large sum of money in this resort project, and that person has put all his treasures on this project. Now their first phase of the project is about to be completed, but the funds have not returned so quickly. The phased project will also be started, and a large sum of money will be invested at that time, and then it will be revealed that there is an ancient tomb of a Tang dynasty vassal here, then it is not something they say that they can stop working without stopping..."

Ou Zixi finally understood what he was thinking: "So you want me to sign a contract with them, let them start the demolition and groundbreaking as soon as possible, and then wait until their money is almost invested before exposing the matter of the ancient tomb
