Dexing Hall
Dusk, autumn rain
Aunt Fu and the waiter had left, and Yang Zhen was counting the accounts alone. An uninvited guest knocked on the closed door.
"You are indeed here." The visitor took off his raincoat and bamboo hat, revealing a dignified appearance.
"Uncle Fugui?" Yang Zhen raised her head: "But what happened last time?"
"No," Chen Fugui shook his head: "I just wanted to tell you about this."
In the main hall of the backyard, on a table, Chen Fugui took out a rattan box from a storage bag, which contained two dishes, a pot of wine, and a basin of rice porridge.
"I still remember the first time I met you, little devil, and asked me for spiritual rice porridge. This time I made a pot specially for you, come and try it."
He took out two bowls and filled one bowl each for Yang Zhen and himself. He mentioned wine again, poured himself a glass, and drank it all. Afterwards, Hula Hula drank most of the bowl of porridge.
"Why don't you drink?" Seeing that Yang Zhen just looked at him and didn't make a move, she couldn't help but asked strangely.
Yang Zhen picked up the porridge bowl with a smile and took a few sips.
Although he is kind to Chen Fugui now, he does not fully trust this person. At this time, there was no one else present, so he had to be a little wary when facing a monk.
Just now he secretly let Yiyi get out of the space. If Chen Fugui had done anything evil, Yiyi's lightning would definitely make him miserable.
Yiyi also has an innate ability, she can identify and resolve various wood toxins. Shicai Yiyi had already sent him a message that there was no problem with the rice porridge. Only then did he drink it with confidence.
Chen Fugui took a bite of food and got to the point:
"My Chen family's ancestral dagger was not given to me by the Zhu family."
"Oh? How did they reply to you?"
"At first, the elder said that this was already the property of the Zhu family and I had no right to redeem it. Later I added 50 spiritual stones and begged hard, but they excused themselves and said that the property had been damaged. I said that it was okay to damage it, but it was okay to leave it damaged. My aunt gave it to me and my aunt recognized it. But the elder got angry and said he had thrown it away a long time ago. He scolded me and kicked me out."
It turned out that not long ago, when Dexingtang's profit exceeded 1,000 gold coins, Yang Zhen obtained Aunt Fu's consent and exchanged 40 spirit stones for Chen Fugui, asking him to redeem the Chen family heirloom to repair the relationship between him and Chen. The relationship between grandmothers.
Chen Fugui was overjoyed and rushed to find the Zhu family, but unexpectedly he was met with disappointment.
"That dagger of yours isn't some kind of treasure, right?" Yang Zhen asked curiously.
"Probably not," Chen Fugui hesitated: "The one I asked someone to appraise is a first-level medium-grade magic weapon, with a maximum of 30 spirit stones. Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Let me ask you something. , can you answer me honestly?"
"What's the matter?" Yang Zhen vaguely guessed.
"Have you ever lost your memory?"
"Why do you ask that?" Yang Zhen asked without answering.
"Hey, you are just dishonest. To tell you the truth, last year the Zhu family specially asked me to test whether you have lost your memory."
"Then how did you reply to him?"
"At first I didn't believe you had amnesia. That night at the Taoist temple you called out my name. But then I figured it out. Maybe it was my aunt and sister-in-law who mentioned me in front of you. Anyway, you are a cunning little kid. Quite frankly, I don’t know whether you have lost your memory or not. But the answer I told the Zhu family is that you have lost your memory and have completely forgotten the past."
"Why?" Yang Zhen was a little surprised.
"No one is a fool." Chen Fugui drank several glasses of wine and said slightly drunk, "I wonder if you know some secrets. Your mother may have run away because of this. The Zhu family wants to deal with you but is worried about Zhao "Jia, I must have noticed something was wrong with you later on, and wanted to find out if you still remember the past. In this case, why don't I help them."
After saying that, he looked at Yang Zhen with a half-smile.
"Then I would like to thank Uncle Fugui for his kindness." Yang Zhen neither admitted nor denied it.
"Haha!" Chen Fugui laughed heartily: "You baby, you are a good person, and you always repay your kindness. I have seen the changes in my aunt and sister-in-law in the past year. I, Chen Fugui, don't have much ability, so I know A person who repays his kindness with kindness..."
He suddenly put his face in front of Yang Zhen's eyes and said mysteriously: "You have to be careful, the Zhu family may not give up on you."
Yang Zhen was shocked: "Why do you say that?"
"Some time ago, on the harvest day, I took my wife back to Zhu's house and met your mother's former manager of the village. His name was Zhu Liangfeng. He was the one who came to me to test your memory loss last year. I haven't seen this boy for more than half a year. I don’t know what he did. When he saw me, he kept asking me insinuatingly, how do you know my aunt, does this Dexing Hall belong to my sister-in-law, or yours, etc..."
"How do you answer?"
"Tell the truth," Chen Fugui spread his hands and said sarcastically, "hiding and hiding will arouse suspicion. Anyway, they all know that my aunt and I have conflicts."
"Tell me," he analyzed: "If he doesn't have any thoughts about you, why does he care so much about you as a child?"
Yang Zhen remained silent, not entirely convinced.
Who knows if Chen Fugui's words were meant by the Zhu family to test him? After a year of silence, is the Zhu family going to cause trouble again?
He felt that it was unlikely. If there was any action, it would have been implemented long ago. Why wait until now?
He is close to completing the body training technique, plus the Black Iron Token, Snow Silk Clothes, and Yi Yi, the hidden little lightning devil, ordinary Qi training monks may not be able to get a good deal if they really take action against him.
"A son-in-law like me is an outsider in the Zhu family." Chen Fugui didn't know if he could read his mind and continued: "They won't let me know what they do. For example, recently, I noticed that there seems to be something in the Zhu family. It's such a happy event, and the elders couldn't hide the smiles on their faces. But when I asked about it, I couldn't explain clearly..."
Finally, he took out forty spiritual stones from the storage bag and placed them on the table: "If you haven't redeemed anything, you can take these spiritual stones. I've kept them here for a long time, and I'm worried that I won't be able to bear to spend them."
Seeing his sincerity, Yang Zhen did not shirk: "You can go and inquire about your heirloom. I will always keep these spiritual stones for you."
Chen Fugui nodded gratefully, chatted for a while, and left.
…
A few days later, Yang Zhen and Aunt Fu boarded the spaceship bound for Zhoucheng again.
In the past six months, as Dexingtang's wealth has increased, Yang Zhen has taken Fu with her every time she went to Zhoucheng. After all, Grandma Chen was old and couldn't afford the expensive ferry ticket, so she only went there once.
They still buy the bottom position. Although the spiritual stones earned now are enough to afford a seat above, even a box. However, Aunt Fu disagreed. It would be better to save a little bit. Yang Zhen is also willing to choose the bottom warehouse. It is always better to be low-key. Besides, he is also used to meditating in the bottom warehouse and then going to the space to talk to Yiyi.
Although it is a bottom warehouse, there are pros and cons, and the location next to the window is undoubtedly the best. Yang Zhen and Aunt Fu were both arranged by the window. There is no other reason. The Zhao family now holds 40% of the shares in this spaceship and is the largest shareholder.
Unlike those general managers in the past who only guarded one-third of an acre of their own land, Qin was very enterprising. After some investigation, she found that Feizhou Passenger Transport was a profitable business, so she boldly invested in it. In addition, if she found some other businesses in the county to be profitable, she would also find ways to get involved. This woman has an almost natural desire for spiritual stones.
The five-hour journey was very boring. Fu quickly fell asleep leaning against the window, and Yang Zhen also quietly entered the stone space.
He didn't know that in the dark corner, a pair of eyes were secretly watching him...
