"Roar! Whose donkey cart is this? ”

As soon as he pushed the second uncle out of the room, he saw a young man outside the courtyard gate smiling crookedly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Second uncle, who is this person?"

Cao Ziguang was unhappy in his heart, Lao Tzu drove a donkey cart and someone came to sarcastically, as for it?

"That's Shulin!" The second uncle said leisurely.

Cao Shulin! That cousin Xiucai?

Cao Shulin glanced over here, then walked in, looked at Cao Ziguang carefully, and grinned.

"Who should I have returned to my hometown, it turned out to be Ziguang's cousin?"

Cao Ziguang looked at this cousin, thin like a bamboo pole, with a pockmarked face, just don't show off this look? Even if you are a showman, according to the imperial selection standards, you will want to be an official and a half-job for the rest of your life, and it is a dead end if you want to take a career in office!

"Brother Shulin, it's been a long time. You're still in style! ”

This Cao Shulin didn't even hear that Cao Ziguang was sarcastic, but looked proud, opened the folding fan in his hand, shook it twice, and said in a weird manner: "I heard that you were kicked out by the Yue family, can't you go on, and you want to come to the second uncle to eat?" ”

Damn, people have to be handsome to put a folding fan out and pretend to be a talent, don't be disgusting with your virtue!

Han Zhong, who was standing on the side, had a gloomy face, and wanted to answer but was stopped by Cao Ziguang with his eyes.

Cao Ziguang said with emotion: "Alas! Now it's hard to mix outside, the little brother is really struggling, with Brother Shulin's talent to learn, it must be infinitely beautiful, why nest in this town, wouldn't it bury talents? ”

This sentence didn't really poke Cao Shulin's pain, it was not that he hadn't gone out, but after staying in Jinling for a few days, he was ridiculed to death by a group of talented people, and he didn't dare to go out after running back.

Cao Shulin's face turned blue and white for a while, and he said vaguely: "What's good outside, it's all vulgar people, and when I am the champion in high school, I can only be considered capable when I go out in style." ”

Cao Ziguang said with a smile: "Then I wish my brother the title of the gold list, don't let the little brother wait for his beard to be white." ”

"Ugh." The second uncle suddenly sighed and said leisurely: "Five years ago, I was waiting for Shulin High School, Shulin, you have to work hard to let Uncle Gong live to see that day!" ”

Cao Shulin's face was a little embarrassed, and he said unhappily: "Second uncle, you continue to bask in the sun!" I'll take my leave. After speaking, he glared at Cao Ziguang and left very unhappily.

Cao Xiaoruo boiled the medicine and brought it up, Cao Ziguang said to go to his old house to have a look, and then took Han Zhong out.

When he came to his grandfather's old house, Cao Ziguang became angry. Not to mention the withered grass on the roof, most of the courtyard walls have collapsed, and the yard is full of garbage. He remembered that this was not the case five years ago, when his father was alive, there were still people from the Cao clan who took the initiative to come and clean up, and in just five years, this place has become a place for garbage storage in the town.

And next to a yard is the old house of the fifth uncle's family, which is called clean, and to exaggerate, mosquitoes will slip on the wall. As far as Cao Ziguang knows, that cousin rarely returns to his hometown, and he has only seen him twice when he is so old. One is when the fifth uncle passed away and came back for a funeral, and the other is when he came back to show off after being promoted, although he was in a high position, he had never heard of any care for the clan, and his father often brought gifts to the clan.

"Young Master, do you want to go back and find someone to clean up?"

Han Zhong saw Cao Ziguang's displeasure and said in a low voice.

"No need." Although he was a little angry, there was no point in doing these useless works, Cao Ziguang said awe-inspiringly: "I will buy this town in the future." ”

This eldest young master said such a sentence coldly, Han Zhong was startled, buy this town? How much silver does that need!

Cao Ziguang also suddenly had such an idea, not only this small town, but also a radius of hundreds of miles, this land in the future will have the largest city in China, and when the cash cow grows to a certain extent in the future, Lao Tzu will buy it and build an Oriental city that never sleeps, as a ****** of foreign trade of the Chinese Empire, and promote the Tang Dynasty clothing, including all Chinese goods, to the world.

It's the beginning of the 19th century, and the kingdom of Britain should already be an empire on which the sun never sets! There have been fundamental changes in the history of China, and I don't know if the Opium War will happen again. At least for now, Cao Ziguang has not found an influx of opium.

In this world, there is no Yuan Dynasty and no Manchu Qing, Chinese civilization has never been interrupted, economic development is very prosperous, and the embryonic artillery is also widely used in the front-line army.

Lao Tzu just wants to be a rich man, marry a third wife and four concubines, and live a free life, I hope that the empire can be more powerful, don't be bullied, I really can't bear it, Lao Tzu has no interest in politics or anything, and don't look for me about war. At best, Lao Tzu engaged in logistics, producing some guns in the rear to make a fortune, but it was better not to let this happen.

It was getting dark, and after a night at the second uncle's house, Cao Shulin had already seen himself, so the Cao clan should know that Lao Tzu was back, but no one came to visit, which was very different from five years ago.

The next day, Chung Yeung Festival.

The Double Ninth Festival, together with the receptive, Qing and Yu, is known as the four traditional ancestor worship festivals of the Han nationality.

Cao Ziguang asked Han Zhong to bring the sacrifices, and then pushed the second uncle and walked all the way to the ancestral tomb of the Cao family outside the town.

Han Zhong drove the donkey cart to follow behind, and Uncle Lao Zhong was very stingy in renting a car, but the sacrifices were very rich, with incense and candles, paper money, vegetarian wine, fruit snacks, meals, and baggage.

Pedestrians on the road and constantly soul, all of them are very relaxed, and there is no seriousness in sweeping the tomb, Cao Ziguang is not, he is not passing through others, his father in the previous life is also the father of the eight classics, filial piety is the first, filial piety is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, he put away the usual frivolity, a solemn face.

The ancestral tomb of the Cao family is on a small hill, the trees are withered and yellow in this season, the yellow leaves on the ground are long, and the breeze blows is really a bit desolate.

There were already many people from the Cao clan at the cemetery, and they were all a little surprised when they saw Cao Ziguang and his party coming.

Some uncles recognized Cao Ziguang, Cao Ziguang and their family are in the same vein, and they have been going to sweep the tomb for five years, and many clansmen have almost forgotten that there is still this person in the clan.

Although he looked down on the second uncle, after all, he was an elder in the clan, and on this occasion, several uncles still came over to say hello.

"Second uncle, you are so old, you don't have to come in person, just leave it to me and other juniors."

Cao Ziguang's two cousins came to the front and bowed.

The second uncle accosted a word, and then pointed to Cao Ziguang and said, "This is your uncle's grandson Guang, you should still know him, right?" ”

The two cousins looked at Cao Ziguang and nodded casually.

"Oh, it's Ziguang! I haven't seen you for years, I heard that you are no longer in the Yue family? ”

"Hello uncles!" Cao Ziguang arched his hand, and then said calmly: "Yes, the little nephew was kicked out by the Yue family, and now he is working in a green building." ”
