Qin Xiao had gradually become accustomed to Lingxi at this time, and in this mountainous village, eating winter melon and eggplant in summer and radish and cabbage in winter was also at ease for him. But the most headache for Qin Xiao is the dozens of children who go to school in Makou Village Primary School, because the educational resources are really scarce, looking at these mountains and rivers all year round will be monotonous and boring, and the most fundamental thing is that it will make people feel a sense of comfort.

Imagine, if you are a person who travels in the universe and suddenly one day you are trapped on the earth for a lifetime, you will feel that life is hopeless, and the people who have been living on the earth will not feel how boring it is to live on the earth, because he does not understand the outside, and he does not even see the small "world" of the earth clearly. In the same way, if we imagine a cosmic person looking at the earthlings, we can understand what others think of these children in the mountain village.

And now, the old man Xie Yunhai has completely recovered his normal language communication ability, so he comes to play with him every day when Qin Xiao is busy. After the leaders of the county and township learned of this situation, they all came to ask the old man about his plans, but the old man had a very good relationship with Qin Xiao, and he was reluctant to go to the nursing home. Qin Xiao also felt that the thinking of this old man isolated from the times must not be able to keep up with the rhythm of modern times, so he also persuaded the leaders above to let him stay and take care of him himself. So Xie Yunhai stayed, Qin Xiao felt that although the old man was old, he had been in the mountains for more than eighty years in his life, and fifty or sixty years in the mountains. Besides, hunting and self-care at such an age is not inferior to that of young people, so there is no need to worry about the physical condition of the elderly, and when he is too busy in the health room, he can be asked to help.

But during this time, the health room was still being created, and the school's homework had been listened to for a long time, so Qin Xiao and Teacher Ma also seized the time to make up lessons for the students, but fortunately, the primary school was not so difficult to catch up. And at night, Qin Xiao has been focusing on looking at the fragmented history of his great-grandfather Qin Ruiming, and his mood and thinking are caught in it. There was not much time to chat with the elderly. It was only late in the evening, when Qin Xiao was tired and dizzy, that he came out for a walk, at this time. The old man seemed to be waiting at the door for a long time, took out his eye bag, put on the tobacco leaves, and the two of them smoked together.

At first, Qin Xiao felt polite, but later. Seeing that he was upset, and he was completely familiar with the old man, he didn't care about etiquette, and when he saw the old man come out at night, he directly took the eye bucket of good tobacco leaves, and smoked it himself.

Qin Xiao had already sent several letters to Luo Chuan, but he hadn't received a single reply, and he didn't know what happened to his old classmates.

But as it happened, today he received a reply, a registered parcel to be exact. Qin Xiao was very excited, after he came out of the village committee. When he returned to the dormitory, he couldn't wait to open it and see what his brothers had to say to him.

But after opening it, he was surprised to find that it was not sent by Luo Chuan or Meng Fan, and the entire email did not contain the specific information of the sender, Qin Xiao couldn't help but wonder a little, and was even more worried. He had a lot of speculation in his mind at this time, could it be that Zhang Zhengguo knew his whereabouts and found this? Or is it a letter sent by Xiao Man who inquired about his whereabouts?

In order to rush to the answer, he immediately opened the package inside. It turned out to be a diary, and the name written on it seemed to me - Qin Ruizhe.

This turned out to be the diary of the great-grandfather's younger brother! Qin Xiao's heart trembled a little at this time, he seemed to realize that someone was secretly helping him: originally he knew that his grandfather Qin Zhihong had two sons. But when I read the family tree later, I didn't see the information of this Qin Ruizhe elder, and some records were completely missing from the genealogy. However, at this moment, the diary of this elder, who had mysteriously disappeared, was magically returned to his hands, as if in the dark. Freedom to arrange by God, the same, to let this disappeared person come back again.

In addition, the entire diary is accompanied by a letter written crookedly and twistedly as if it were written by a child. Qin Xiao tore open the envelope again and read:

Let's talk about the ancestral relics first, and visit in the near future.

Qin Xiao understood that it seemed that the other party was afraid that he would not see him, so he deliberately avoided it alive, and sent this thing first, which meant that if he had doubts in his heart, he would definitely stay and wait for them. But Qin Xiao had already decided at this moment that this person had to be seen, even if it was the Zhang family's conspiracy, he had to take risks.

So Qin Xiao was not ambiguous, so he flipped through the diary, and only after a look did he know that this was the experience of the elder of the Qin family named Qin Ruiming, he suddenly remembered that his grandfather had said before his death that there was a side branch of the Qin family who came to him, that is, a person who coquetted Qin Yuxiang, saying that he wanted to develop the Seven Spirits Flower Scatter, and then find the Zhang family for revenge, and finally his grandfather refused, and soon heard that this Qin Yuxiang was also gone. And his grandfather Qin Yuhan finally died of guilt because he didn't protect his grandson, and Qin Xiao also vowed to take revenge after knowing the Qin family's previous experience. Now someone actually sent Qin Ruizhe's diary, it was not the descendants of the Qin family in the United States, it must have been Qin Yuxiang who asked him to help him.

Thinking of this, he felt a lot relieved in his heart, so he calmed down and read the diary of his great-grandfather uncle Qin Ruizhe, who he knew almost nothing.

In 1930, that is, in the nineteenth year of the Republic of China, at this time, although the land of China had gone through the Northern Expedition, there were still many factions, warlords were fighting, the northeast, the northwest, and Guangxi were still in harmony, but the chairman of the committee had been busy suppressing bandits.

At this time, a young man got off the boat from Qingyu with his luggage, and he returned to his hometown after studying abroad for two years. This young man who returned to his hometown is Qin Ruizhe, Qin Zhihong's second son. Qin Ruizhe arrived at Qingyu, took the train directly to Boshui, and then took the car to Hedong Village.

After arriving home, Qin Zhihong was very happy, and immediately let all Ruizetang take a day off and hold a banquet to celebrate his son's return. Father Qin Zhihong and eldest brother Qin Ruiming asked about Qin Ruizhe's study career in the United States, Qin Ruizhe talked eloquently, very excited, he told a lot of strange things in California, father and brother listened to it is also full of interest, unconsciously a lunch after eating until three o'clock in the afternoon.

However, at this time, an administrative official came to Qin's house, Qin Zhihong and Qin Ruiming didn't know what was going on, but Qin Ruizhe recognized that it was Wang Jingnian, a senior brother who was one year higher than him. The arrival of Wang Jingnian made Qin Ruizhe very happy, but he didn't expect that his fellow countrymen in a foreign land would come to welcome him on the day he went home.

However, Wang Jingnian came to see that Qin Ruizhe not only came to pick him up, he came to bring a letter of appointment, that is, to invite him to teach in a girls' high school in Boshui, and the subjects taught were chemistry and foreign languages.

Qin Zhihong was even more elated, he didn't expect that someone from their Qin family could become a gentleman, you know, in the social situation at that time, being a teacher in a school can be said to be a profession that everyone admires. In terms of salary, the monthly salary of a police chief was between thirty and thirty-five yuan, while the monthly salary of a patrol officer under his command was less than ten yuan, and the salary of a mere elementary school teacher at that time was more than sixty yuan. In terms of prices, the best courtyard house in the capital at that time was about 300 yuan, that is to say, a teacher's salary for half a year could buy a courtyard house in the best location in the capital. ――It's unthinkable now!

After taking it at home for a week, Qin Ruizhe packed his bags and went to Boshui Girls' Middle School to report. Although this time he was also uprooted from his hometown, and he could go home at most once a week, but for him, there was no feeling of leaving home, because the thousands of miles across the ocean and drinking dozens of miles of mountain roads are not the same, and this shortening of the distance has also reduced the distance in people's hearts to almost no zài according to the original proportion.

Coincidentally, Xu Wende of Hedong Village has two children, the eldest son is Xu Jingguo, and the younger daughter is Xu Miaolan. He also knew the fate of not studying, so he let Yasukuni and Miaolan Zhuan always study in school, but Xu Jingguo didn't like to read since he was a child, so he followed the Qin family to run a medicine hall without going to middle school, and the youngest daughter Xu Miaolan had excellent grades, so her father Xu Wende has been providing her with study, and now she is also studying in Boshui Girls' Middle School.

The curriculum of the girls' middle school is mostly liberal arts and arts, and there are very few science and engineering, so after Qin Ruiming arrived at Boshui Girls' Middle School, he mainly focused on English, and occasionally when it came to science and engineering, he was responsible for the science and engineering courses of the whole grade, of course, it was just an ordinary dabbling, not as the main course.

Although Xu Wende loves his daughter very much, his wife does not agree with him sending her daughter to study, because she thinks that as long as a girl's family can recognize a few words, she will not be blind in the future, so why bother to go to Boshui to study on dozens of miles of mountain roads. But the father Xu Wende insisted on letting his daughter decide for herself, Xu Miaolan naturally didn't want to stay in the mountain village, and finally found someone to marry, so she told her father that she wanted to go to Boshui to study and gain knowledge.

Although the father Xu Wende relies on his daughter, he is not at ease with his daughter going to study dozens of miles away, especially on the way home from school, every time he is the father here to pick her up.

But Qin Ruizhe, the second young master of the Qin family, returned from studying abroad and was appointed to teach at Boshui Girls' Middle School, so Xu Wende happily found Qin Zhihong and told him what he meant. Qin Zhihong naturally readily agreed, so he instructed his son Qin Ruizhe, Uncle Xu's daughter Miaolan is also studying, and when he comes home from school in the future, he will come back with her, and Uncle Xu of the province will run back and forth. Qin Ruizhe naturally understood this etiquette, so he agreed. (To be continued.) )
