Chapter 41: A Gentleman Stands in the World
Hanging up the phone, Jiang Zu smiled slightly.
For Zhou Xiaorou, whether it was in college or at the class reunion, his good impression of her was as good as ever.
When I was in college, there were only Mingyang and Zhou Xiaorou in the entire class, and I didn't look at him with colored glasses.
At the class reunion, Zhou Xiaorou stepped forward to alleviate the situation for him.
There are many icing on the cake, and there are few charcoal in the snow.
Zhou Xiaorou was able to stand up at that time, and she still remembered him, and she really remembered the friendship of her classmates back then.
As for others, the so-called classmate friendship, Jiang Zu thinks it's ridiculous when he thinks about it.
With Jiang Zu's character, the grace of dripping water is reciprocated, and the revenge of every drop is returned tenfold.
Zhou Xiaorou's friendship is worthy of his promise.
Moreover, at the class reunion, he also saw that something really happened to the Zhou family.
Otherwise, with Zhou Xiaorou's family background, although she can't compare with the Shen family, she can't really be among the upper class giants in Rongcheng.
However, on that occasion, it was absolutely impossible for Shen Hao to say such shameless words.
asked Zhou Xiaorou to accompany him for one night in exchange for the Shen family to help the Zhou family.
Take the car to the ancestral home of the Mingyang family.
Jiang Zu still asked Xiao Qi Xiaoba to park the car outside on the side of the road and wait, and he walked along the alley alone and walked into the ancestral house.
The sun is scorching.
In the yard.
Chen Changhai, wearing a crumpled and somewhat yellowed white vest, was pulling his trouser legs and digging soil with a hoe in the vegetable field.
And the aunt, also wearing a straw hat and carrying a bucket, bowed behind and poured a scoop of water into the soil pit dug out by Chen Changhai.
Under the scorching sun, the second elder was sweating profusely and his body was stained with mud.
But the expression is very comfortable and comfortable.
Jiang Zu stood not far away, looking at this scene, a little dazed.
In just five years, the changes in the second elder are too great.
The former second elder is high-spirited and high-spirited.
Now, the second elder is much older, gray-haired, and no longer has the temperament of the past. More of them, but they are like two farmers.
"Uncle and aunt." Jiang Zu shouted.
The two elders stopped working at the same time, looked up, and then showed a warm smile.
"Azu, sit in the house quickly, it's hot, it's hot outside."
Chen Changhai immediately put down his hoe and walked over with a smile: "Ah Xiu, go make tea." ”
"Okay, you talk to Azu first, and I'll go make tea." Auntie smiled and nodded.
For Jiang Zu's arrival, the second elder was obviously very happy.
After entering the hall.
Jiang Zu and Chen Changhai sat down.
Jiang Zu took a closer look at Chen Changhai, the last time they met, Chen Changhai was still tired, like an old man in the twilight, his face was full of decadence, and even his eyes became dim.
But this time, Chen Changhai was obviously much more radiant, and his eyes were shining.
It seems that the snake soup last time was quite complementary to the uncle and aunt.
Jiang Zu secretly thought to himself that a little demon who had cultivated to the point of opening the spiritual wisdom would not be worth mentioning to him.
But for ordinary people, it is a race over ginseng Linzhi, which is really a big supplement.
Three years ago, the Chen family fell and died of fame.
A series of blows did not hurt the second elder a lot.
In addition, Snake Taijun has been arranging for his grandson to cultivate in the ancestral house, and the demonic qi has invaded the second elder, and in three years, the second elder's anger has been seriously worn out.
If Jiang Zu hadn't rushed back, he would have concluded that the second elder would live for another five years at most, and he would have been seriously ill and depressed.
Fortunately, the grandson of Snake Taijun still made up a lot of anger for the second elder.
"Uncle, your complexion is much better than last time." Jiang Zu said with a smile.
Chen Changhai nodded and said with a smile: "It's strange to say, after your aunt and I fell asleep inexplicably last time, we woke up and drank that pot of snake soup, and our spirits have really become much better in the past few days." ”
Jiang Zu smiled noncommittally, and secretly thought to himself, should he wait for the snake Taijun to successfully transform into a dragon, he killed the snake Taijun and swallowed the demon pill, and then stewed his snake body in a pot of snake soup to nourish the second elder?
After thinking about it, he felt a little difficult.
After all, the snake Taijun is about to turn into an existence, and the snake body must be very large, and it will definitely not be able to stew in one pot.
"I'll have to find someone to customize a few cauldrons first." Jiang Zu made a decision in his heart.
At this time, the aunt came over with hot tea.
Hearing Chen Changhai's words, he quipped: "It's not that you have been depressed and insomnia in the past three years, the last time Azu came, you finally slept a whole night, and you must be in good spirits these days." ”
Chen Changhai smiled and scratched his head, but he didn't argue.
Jiang Zu also laughed, without explaining the reason.
He promised to be famous and take care of the second elder to spend his old age in peace, so he naturally didn't want the second elder to be involved in the road of cultivation.
The monster thing, for ordinary people, the impact is really too great.
Holding the teacup and taking a sip, Jiang Zu said, "Uncle and aunt, in fact, I came today for one thing. ”
"What's the matter?"
Chen Changhai asked.
Jiang Zu took out the famous ancestral jade pendant and put it on the table: "This is a famous thing, I took it back and returned it to my uncle and aunt." ”
Seeing the jade pendant on the table, the second elder, who was still smiling, was stunned.
Immediately, Jiang Zu saw that the eyes of the second elder were red and tears were flashing.
The aunt trembled her hands, held the jade pendant in the palm of her hand, and then put it in the position of her heart, and the tears finally couldn't hold back, and slipped down the corners of her eyes: "Fame, fame......"
Chen Changhai on the side was also distracted for a while, he wanted to be comforted, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only raise his hand and pat his aunt's shoulder.
Immediately, Chen Changhai held back his tears, looked at Jiang Zu with hazy teary eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Isn't this jade pendant in Yang Qingling's hands?" ”
This jade pendant is the ancestral heirloom of the Chen family.
It is also the eldest daughter-in-law of the past dynasties, Chen Mingyang decided that Yang Qingling was the person who had been staying for a lifetime, so his mother handed over the jade pendant to Chen Mingyang and gave it to Yang Qingling.
"I got it back."
Jiang Zu smiled and said, "The jade pendant is a famous relic and an ancestral heirloom of the Chen family, and Yang Qingling is not worthy of it." ”
"Azu, ...... you" Chen Changhai's face changed, and he suddenly thought of what worried him, and hurriedly spoke.
But, that's not the end of the story.
"Uncle, I know you're worried about my safety, don't worry, I'm fine."
Jiang Zu interrupted Chen Changhai's words, and said with a firm gaze: "Fame will not die, and the Chen family will also regain its former glory." ”
"Azu......" The aunt who lowered her head and choked slowly raised her head, and looked at Jiang Zu with rain: "You are a famous brother, your uncle and I have always treated you as our own sons, we don't want you to take risks, we just want you to be safe." ”
Jiang Zu was moved for a while, smiled slightly, but did not say much.
There are some things that should be done; There are some things that I want to do; Something, it has to be done.
A gentleman stands in the world, as a relative, a friend, and a brother.
There is no peace, but there are people who are willing to carry the weight forward.
And the things of fame, he is a brother, willing!
He didn't think to tell everything to Mingyang's parents, because it really wasn't necessary.
You only need to wait until the day when the four major gates are destroyed, when the Chen family rises again, please ask the two elders to bask in the glory together.
Anything else, he just does.
appeased the second elder for a while, and waited for the second elder to calm down.
Jiang Zu got up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, he was worried that there was still a residual demonic energy in the second elder's body, so he quietly used his aura to investigate the second elder's body.
After making sure that there was no demonic energy left in the second elder's body, he was completely relieved.
Leave the ancestral home.
Jiang Zu walked out along the alley, and the appearance of the second elder crying kept coming to mind.
This made him very irritable, and there was depression on Junlang's face.
One of the saddest things in the world is that a white-haired person sends a black-haired person.
And all of this is caused by Yang Qingling.
He got into the Maybach.
Xiao Qi, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned around and glanced at it: "Young master, are you in a bad mood?" ”
"Hmm."
Jiang Zu nodded, took a deep breath, and suppressed distracting thoughts: "Let's go to Zhou's house for an appointment." ”
