"Ye Jinxian" was stunned on the spot. He covered his face and froze on the spot. It took him a while to wake up. Then he raised his eyes and stretched out his hand to punch the old man.

Unexpectedly, Jin Huijuan next to her suddenly knelt down at this moment: "Uncle, calm down! If you have done anything wrong, please forgive me for the sake of your nephew and wife."

"Ye Jinxian" quickly came back to his senses, retracted his fist abruptly, and carefully searched the information in his mind.

Ye Jinxian only had two uncles, and they had met them when he had just "borrowed the corpse". Where did these uncles come from?

Although he was doubtful, he did not dare to get angry. He only covered his face and glared at the old man.

"You don't have to look at me like that! There's no need to be so unangry!" The old man was so angry that he pointed at "Ye Jinxian" with shaking hands, his whole body shaking.

When Jin Huijuan saw him, she stood up and helped him sit down. The old man leaned on the table, stared at Ye Jinxian, and breathed for a long time.

"I know that you only recognize your eldest uncle and your third uncle, and never recognize me as your second uncle. That's right! Who told me to be adopted into the Fang family since I was a child? My surname is Fang, unlike your mother and your two uncles. My surname is Wang! It's normal for you to deny me." As he said that, the old man couldn't help but become sad and burst into tears.

Jin Huijuan winked at "Ye Jinxian" and comforted the old man softly: "Uncle, please don't say that. We are young and didn't know much about the affairs of our elders in the past. A few months ago, my mother-in-law led the two of us I just learned about this story when I went to visit you.

"It is said that the Fang family was very kind to the Wang family at the beginning. The Fang family did not have any children, so they adopted you. We couldn't recognize each other at first, but who knew that the Fang family's elders had passed away one after another since last year, and there was no bond anymore. Only then do I dare to recognize you..."

Jin's words cleared up "Ye Jinxian's" confusion. But those few slaps just now came out in revenge. Without saying a word, he dragged a chair far away and sat down, intending to wait and see what would happen.

Unexpectedly, his calmness only angered his second uncle even more. He pointed to "Ye Jinxian" with trembling fingers, looked at Jin Huijuan and said:

"Look! Look at how angry he is! He's complaining that I hit him. He's feeling aggrieved but doesn't dare to explode. He's holding back his anger!

"You don't have to be angry! Of course you know why I beat you! Normally, my uncle is older and my uncle is younger, but it turns out they are all trying to trick me! It's just because I'm childless, old and widowed, and I have a lot of money in my hands. It’s just about the Fang family’s money and property!”

"Uncle, look at you, how can you say such a thing! Jin Xian and I would never dare to have such unkind and unjust thoughts!" Mrs. Jin quickly retorted warmly, while bringing a cup of hot tea to the old man, and at the same time, " Ye Jinxian" winked.

Money industry? "Ye Jinxian" moved in his heart, his face softened a little, following Jin's eyes, he clasped his fists and reluctantly called "uncle".

Unexpectedly, the sound of "uncle" seemed to touch the old man's heart, and he immediately sobbed and shed tears again, crying and saying:

"You don't have to call me uncle. Why did you ever think of me as your uncle? After you came back, the boss and the third child have been seeing each other all over the past two days, but they didn't come to see me!

"I know, I am an embarrassing person! Your two uncles are not willing to mention me, for fear that I will come to divide the Wang family's property again. Your mother also doesn't mention it easily. After all, my surname is Fang, not Wang. So you all intend to I have forgotten it, and no one will let you see me.

"But how could I compete for the Wang family's wealth? The Fang family's property is already worth thousands of gold, how can I value the three melons and two dates of the Wang family?

"And even if my surname is Fang, all of the Fang family have died, and I have no children. Among these children, I like you the most, and I will naturally give this property to you in the future. I only hope that you can take care of me and support me in my old age." Send to the end.

"Although I didn't tell your mother clearly about this before, I had made up my mind. Who knew that something like that would happen to you later. Your mother immediately separated from me.

"Now that you are back, you are not even allowed to see me. I think I didn't make it clear before. She is angry with me. After all, she doesn't regard me as a brother and doesn't want to recognize me..."

At this point, the old man burst into tears.

After hearing these words, "Ye Jinxian" couldn't help but make quick calculations in his mind. What this old man meant was that he wanted me to have two wives. I will support him until his death, and he will give me the Fang family's property. And the wealth in this industry has reached several thousand gold! This is a sure-fire deal!

As for the relationship between him and the Wang family, it is quite clear. The Wang family's son was sent to the Fang family for adoption, and they only met Ye Jinxian a few months before his death. No wonder I've never heard of such an uncle before.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise his eyes and take a closer look at the "uncle" in front of him. Seeing that although his skin was dark and his face was pockmarked with black moles, he was dressed in brocade clothes and had an extraordinary bearing, so he hesitated to believe him a little more.

So "Ye Jinxian" put on a big smile, stood up and sat next to the old man. Although the slap on his face hurt a lot, he didn't dare to show any resentment. He stretched out his thick, calloused hands to hold the old man's arm, and called "uncle" affectionately.

"Humph!" The old man Xu was really angry. He snorted coldly and looked away.

"Ye Jinxian" looked up at Mrs. Jin and saw her standing respectfully with her eyebrows lowered, as if she was too frightened to say anything.

Today she was going out to have a meal, and then she met an uncle...

"Ye Jinxian" narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little suspicious in his heart. So he pondered for a moment, then said after careful consideration:

"Uncle, don't be angry, or your anger will damage your body. You also know that I have had this adventure because of great fortune. Although this body has become one with me, it is a descendant after all, and sometimes it is unclear and unexplained. Very bright.

"It must be that my mind is covered in dust and my memory is unclear. I do have a vague feeling that I have forgotten a lot of important things in the past two days, but when I look into it more carefully, I can't think clearly for a while. I think this incident with my uncle is one of them.

"Today my uncle taught me a lesson. Although I am still a little confused, I have some shadows in my heart. Although I don't completely remember my uncle now, I beg your uncle for the sake of me coming back from the hell gate. , please forgive me. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve tasted Meng Po soup, but my nephew’s memory is indeed not as good as before.”

Jin frowned slightly, but still stood there with lowered eyes and respect.

"You really can't remember me?" The old man seemed very sad and disappointed.

"Ye Jinxian" thought of the words "Fang family's property" and "among these children..." and quickly added:

"No, you are my biological uncle, so of course I remember it. It's just that no one mentioned it before so I can't remember it. It's because my soul has returned and my heart is dusty. Now that you taught me a lesson, I vaguely remember it again. Now. Uncle, please don’t be angry."

"Alas!" The old man wiped the corners of his eyes and patted "Ye Jinxian's" hand, "Child, do you know why I hit you as soon as you entered the door?"

"Of course because I forgot about uncle."

"How can I be such a stingy person? The reason why I hit you is because you are angry! Look, what is this?" As he spoke, the old man reached out and took out a piece of paper from his arms and slapped it on the table.

"Ye Jinxian" took a closer look, but it was an IOU that read, "To pay off gambling debts, I borrowed a thousand taels of silver from the gambling house." The signature was clearly signed with the three characters "Ye Jinxian."

"This..." "Ye Jinxian" felt a trace of doubt in his heart. He slowly withdrew his hand and looked at the old man with a wary look, not as affectionate as before.

Seeing him like this, the old man sighed again, picked up the IOU and threw it into the tea bowl. The tea suddenly turned into ink, and the IOU was immediately stained.

"Uncle, this is..." "Ye Jinxian" looked at the old man hesitantly.

"Oh! My child, you have to change your habit of gambling!" The old man sighed, like all the dedicated old fathers in the world, he was worried about his children.

"When you started to fall ill, Yu Da from the casino was afraid that he would lose the money, so he almost went to look for you at home. Fortunately, I have some friendship with Yu Da, and he also knew that your mother and I were brothers and sisters, so he asked before going to ask for the money. Came to me first.

"When I saw this IOU, I realized that you are a gambler on weekdays and have lost as much as a thousand taels. You were so ill at the time. If you let Yu Da go make trouble, wouldn't it kill you immediately?

"So even though I was angry, I still paid you the gambling debt. Who would have thought that within a month you would..."

The uncle seemed very sad when he said this, and the tears came again and couldn't stop flowing.

After a while, he rubbed "Ye Jinxian" and said happily: "Fortunately, thanks to the blessings of gods and Buddhas, you are back again. I show you this IOU, not because I want to ask you for a debt."

"Including those slaps just now, do you really think that uncle is so stingy and angry at you just because you didn't look at me?

"I want to teach you not to gamble again in the future! It's a bottomless abyss, and even a fortune of ten thousand yuan can't fill it! If I don't teach you a lesson, how can you remember it?

"Now that the gambling debt has been repaid and the IOU has been released by me, no one is allowed to mention this matter in the future! You can live your life in peace and contentment, study hard and make progress!"

This heartfelt statement is truly sincere. Anyone can see that the second uncle cares deeply about "Ye Jinxian".

Not to mention a living person of flesh and blood, even a clay sculpture or wood sculpture would shed tears after hearing these true words.

"Ye Jinxian" lifted up his robe and fell to his knees with a plop, his eyes red with emotion: "My uncle is so sincere to me, and every lesson he teaches is for my own good. How can my nephew be so ignorant?

"Don't worry, uncle. My nephew will definitely change his old bad habits and never gamble again. My nephew will definitely pay back the thousand taels of silver in full!" After saying that, "Ye Jinxian" raised his face to look at his second uncle.

This last sentence is actually a test. If the second uncle hears that he wants to pay back the money and agrees immediately, then he will have to think about it carefully.

Unexpectedly, the second uncle laughed and stretched out his hand to help him up: "I don't need you to pay back! I don't need that little money! Besides, my property will be yours in the future, and this money will be given to you sooner or later."

"You just need to remember my words and make progress. My uncle is still counting on you to take care of you till the end of your life!"

A thousand taels of silver was just "a decent amount" to him? Then the Fang family's property can be considered a wealthy one!

"Ye Jinxian" was agitated in his heart, rolled his eyes, fell to his knees again, lay on his uncle's lap, and said more sincerely than before:

"After having a sincere conversation with my uncle, my heart suddenly became brighter. It was as if the dirt that had covered my heart before had disappeared, and the confusion of the past two days also disappeared. This shows that my uncle and I have a deep fate, and my uncle and I are even more... It's a noble person.

"Uncle, don't be angry again. Today, my chaos has been eliminated and my memory has returned. I will be as filial to my uncle as before. A hundred years from now, my uncle will also be as filial as I said before."

"Do you remember everything that happened before?" The second uncle seemed very excited.

"Yes, I have already remembered it, thanks to my uncle's teachings."

"Then you also remember me as your uncle?" The second uncle seemed to still have doubts.

"Yes, don't worry, I remember my uncle. You are my mother's second brother. You were adopted into the Fang family, my grandfather's benefactor, when you were a child. My mother only introduced me to you a few months ago!

"Although these were still vague when I first met you, after chatting for a while, I now remember them all, and they are clear!"

"Then you used to bet and owed debt..." The second uncle seemed very worried and wanted to confirm again.

"Don't worry, uncle, I will never gamble again! I will change..."

Before "Ye Jinxian" finished speaking, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open, and then a person rushed in. He stepped forward and grabbed "Ye Jinxian" by the collar, then opened his bow left and right, and then continued with "Ye Jinxian". Slap him in the mouth several times.
