Chapter 38: The Danger of the Xu Family
One day at the end of November, we faced the first light snow since the beginning of winter, returned to Penglai, rested at Brother Cai's inn for one night, and drove back to Jinan the next day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I heard that the second uncle was injured, Chu Ying and Xiaoxiao came to visit, but I couldn't help but didn't ask them about those more sensitive things, almost in mid-December, the second uncle was already able to walk on crutches by himself, but according to the doctor's judgment, even if he can be cured, when the weather is bad, his ankle will be very painful, and there will be a limp, and he can't do a lot of exercise on weekdays......
Whenever I see the second uncle walking on crutches with a slight frown, I will think of the dream I had in the yin and yang coffin that day, in the dream, the person who was most important to me sacrificed his life to save me, but the second uncle was injured in reality in order to save me......
However, if what the Seventh Master said is true, how should these two decide? How will you face it?
There are more and more mysteries in my heart, and sometimes, I would rather choose these mysteries than solve them, because once they are solved, this peaceful life will be completely broken at this moment, and when the time comes, no one can be sure what role the people around them will develop......
It snowed in Jinan for several days in a row, and it was not until this weekend that the window became a sunny day with blue sky and white clouds, I took my second uncle to the hospital for a re-examination, and from the results, the recovery was good.
After coming out of the hospital, I had some dinner with my second uncle before returning to the antique shop, and my second uncle said that he was a little tired, so he went back upstairs to rest. I sat alone at the counter, staring in a daze.
Coming back from Dangji Island, the second uncle's spirit was obviously much worse, and he didn't look like a fifty-year-old man at all, but like an old man in his twilight years.
I knew in my heart that this operation had hit him a bit hard: first, the yin and yang coffin was almost certain that he was powerless against his body, and second, the reason why he was powerless was because he had been poisoned by the same poison as the seventh master and the cloth bag monk! The most important thing is that this poison is likely to be under the control of his father Gu Wenzhong......
This blow is really big for a middle-aged person.
His own brother poisoned himself, which caused his physical condition to deteriorate every day, and he was almost cornered.
This kind of thing is put on anyone, and it is estimated that the first thought is to kill his brother with his own hands and then commit suicide......
Therefore, I began to feel that I couldn't face my second uncle, and when the two of us were eating together, they also tacitly avoided each other's eyes as much as possible, although no one had ever taken the initiative to mention this matter, but it had erected an impregnable wall between our uncle and nephew......
In the past year or so, because I am often away from home, and my business is much lighter, I looked at the computer desktop in front of me boredly, picked up my mobile phone and wanted to send a message to Xiaoxiao, but I was afraid of disturbing her work, so I thought about it and forgot it.
I sat like this until three o'clock in the afternoon, and the second uncle still didn't get up.
I hope that the second uncle can take a good rest, he has been tired enough recently, and he is fifty years old, so he should think about the easy days of taking a back seat.
Just thinking about it, I suddenly heard a "pop" sound from the door, as if something had hit the door, I hurriedly looked up and saw that there were only walking tourists outside the glass door, and there was nothing wrong.
"WellโI don't know when this life will end." I said to myself: "The old clam and the master of the cloth bag are still in Taibai Mountain, maybe, it is possible to go there once in the near future." โ
As I spoke, I opened a forum about some domestic secrets, although most of them were fake, but it was quite effective to pass the time.
Turning two pages, there was suddenly a post that caught my attention: the name of this post is "The Downfall Road of the Xu Family", and there are very few people who follow the post, but when I saw the word "Xu Family", I immediately thought of Xu Zeming. In Huaxia, the only one who can be called the "Xu family" is Xu Zeming's family.
It seems that his sister is still an older brother, and now he is also a member of the party. I clicked on it, and the first thing I saw was a photo of Xu Zeming, in which he was wearing a black trench coat, looking calm and steady, and the iconic gold-rimmed glasses reflected the posture of a successful person.
It looks like it should be a recent photo.
I continued to look down, the content of the post is nothing more than a look at Xu Zeming's family history, and then added his recent situation, and finally, he listed the list of important members of the big provincial government he is now in charge of, although I don't understand, but I still see that it is boring: the number one in this big province, that is, the secretary, is another red son with good roots, compared with his resume and ability, he is no worse than Xu Zeming!
Xu Zeming served as the governor of this province, and he was airborne, but the officials around him were all people who had been trained by the secretary for several years in office! You must know that these two are in competition, and transferring Xu Zeming here at this time is not gilding at all, but to suppress him, or even to put him to death!
It's too sinister! I frowned, and my heart tightened for Xu Zeming: Who did you offend to be arranged like this?! The purpose of this is too obvious, it is clear that he wants to use this secretary as a gun to kill Xu Zeming's career!
However, I quickly understood Xu Zeming's mentality: he must have felt that he had a Tai Chi halo body, and no matter what he did, he could turn danger into a disaster and move forward smoothly, so he relaxed his vigilance, otherwise, with his ability and the city government, he would never do anything wrong when he was transferred to the central government!
Thinking of this, I immediately set my goal on Chu Ying.
I knew before that Xu Zeming lost his wife in his early years, and now he is just in his early forties, and he has recently been appreciated by an old leader, and he wants to marry his unmarried daughter to him, and it was during that time that Xu Zeming was transferred to the central government, more than a month ago, Xu Zeming fell in love with Chu Ying in the antique shop, and it seems that both of them are very serious, this matter, if it reaches the ears of the old leader, the investigation is true, Xu Zeming will rely on his Tai Chi dizziness and not take this matter seriously, which will make the old leader angry, and then exiled to the place- If that's the case, it's easier to explain.
Of course, there must be more than this one thing, there is Tai Chi faint, Xu Zeming has no worries, it is estimated that he has offended many people in the central government, plus his old father is dead, the backer is gone, and it is reasonable to be rectified......
It seems that the first collateral effect of Tai Chi halo has disappeared, and Xu Zeming is about to be counterattacked - this person's eight characters are still weaker, and it is estimated that he can't bear it.
I think of the environment Xu Zeming is in at this time, and I can't help but break out in a cold sweat: I am surrounded by other people's descendants, all of them are inconsistent, and there is a knife hidden in the smile, and if there is a slight mistake, I will immediately fall into a place of no return.
Also, Liang Ruoyi said in the hospital that day that Xu Zeming came to Jinan not long ago, and it seems that this guy is really in love with Chu Ying?!
After hesitating for a moment, I still picked up my mobile phone and called Chu Ying, who happened to be on duty on the weekend and was not busy, so I called her over.
"What? Call me over in such a hurry? "It's very close, Chu Ying, this girl is a fiery character, she pushed the door in two or three minutes later, sat on the wooden chair next to me and looked at me and asked.
I haven't taken this girl seriously for a long time, in fact, I met again more than a year ago, and I haven't seen each other for many years but I have never felt that there is a distance between them, and this kind of relationship may not be there again in the future.
Chu Ying tied her long hair behind her head very neatly, revealing a delicate and round goose egg face, with a slight powder on her face, which made the already stunning face look more perfect, her slightly curled eyelashes seemed to be greeting me playfully, and her slender jade hand supported her chin, which made me feel a little emotional: Once upon a time, the girl who was called "tomboy" by adults had become a beautiful woman.
Although, she has a not-so-female profession: a detective.
"Hey, what are you looking at?!" Chu Ying saw me looking at her in a daze, she was suddenly a little embarrassed, and she bowed her head slightly, but two blushes flew on her cheeks.
"Oh, that ......" I smiled embarrassedly, and then asked with a serious face: "Girl, I ask you the following question very seriously, and please answer it seriously!" All right? โ
"Okay!" Chu Ying nodded: "You ask!" โ
"Did Xu Zeming come to you?"
"Yes!"
I then asked, "Are you already in a relationship?" โ
"Sort of!" Chu Ying hesitated, but nodded.
"Do you know who he is now?" I frowned, thinking, things were trickier than I thought.
"Yes." Chu Ying's face didn't change.
"Do you know what he's doing?" I sighed softly.
"Yes, not optimistic."
I nodded, and said in my heart I still underestimated Chu Ying, this child has been smart and clever since he was a child, and he looks very arrogant on the surface, but in fact, many things are clearer than anyone else.
"Do you really love him?" I groaned and asked the most crucial question.
"Seriously, I'm not sure." Chu Ying pursed her mouth: "Before him, I only had a heart for you, and I don't know what kind of feelings I have for him, anyway, I just think he can give me a warm home and a safe embrace, that's all." โ
At this moment, I suddenly remembered that the second uncle said that Uncle Chu had something to do in his career, but after such a long time, there was no news released.
However, this also shows that Chu Ying is really serious about Xu Zeming......
"You, the difference is nearly twenty years old......" Before I finished speaking, I saw that this girl was about to retort with her neck, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Okay, okay, these are not problems, I tell you the most important thing, he has killed people, committed crimes, and besides, he will not end well, and even, his life will be in danger immediately!" โ
