Chapter 25: Who Is the Female Corpse?

He stood in front of the elevator and gave me a smile: "You usually pretend to be ruthless, huh?" Shangshang, if you are still so soft-hearted, you will be deceived in the future. ”

I pouted, feeling like I had changed a lot since I followed him back to Ren's house. After leaving the hospital, Ren Qiancang did not drive home, but took me to the Tibetan Museum, which was the first time I had a little understanding of the Ren family's industry.

The Ren family's collection is located on a relatively small street not far from the city center. On both sides of the street, these collectibles are being bought and sold. The Ren family's collection is the largest on the street.

The car went around the alley, and after parking, we got out of the car. This is the back door of the Ren Family Collection. The style here is the same as that in the courtyard of the Ren family, which is an imitation of Qing architecture. Even at the back door, there are two security guards on duty.

When the security guard saw Ren Qiancang coming, he bowed slightly towards him very respectfully. I followed all the way in, I don't know how to look at antiques, but the camera or something, almost everywhere. The collection is very large, there are all kinds of antiques, the small ones have copper coins and jade, and the valuable ones have ancient paintings, vases, and ancient swords. There is no price tag on everything, and when a guest enters the door, they will be accompanied by a waiter in a suit throughout the process.

Ren Qiancang sensed my uneasiness and took my hand. I quickly said, "These things are expensive." ”

"Well, it's all genuine."

"And what if I accidentally break it?"

Ren Qiancang smiled and said, "Aren't these all your family?" If it's broken, it's broken. Besides, the real good things are all in the Ren family's big yard. ”

I was stunned for a moment before I understood what he meant, and then I relaxed. He led me to the second floor and said, "I made an appointment with an old professor from the archaeological team to talk about the ancient corpses. His wife should come over too, so you can help me deal with the old lady." Merchant, I'm sorry for you. ”

I listened, understood why he brought me over, nodded, and smiled, "I'd love to help you." "I'm really happy that at least I'm not a vase next to him, I can be with him and work together.

The second floor is much cleaner than the first floor. The upstairs layout is also very similar to home. It's all some antique style big chairs. An old gentleman in a Tang costume saw us coming up, and hurriedly got up and said, "Mr. Ren, Professor Wu is already waiting inside." ”

Ren Qiancang nodded and led me to the innermost room. In the center of the room is a marble table, and behind a carved wooden partition is a low slab and several large chairs. On the low floor is a small table, which has been served with tea, and it is also a very old style. On the big chair sat an old man with gray hair, a somewhat hunched back, and a cane in his hand. In front of the low collapse, a thin old lady was touching the small table and said, "Yo, it seems to be the real thing, not the imitation." ”

"Tut, these are genuine products in the Ren family, they have been collected at home for hundreds of years, and the store that has slowly accumulated up, isn't it a shame to put fakes? Yo, who are? ”

Ren Qiancang greeted him, he didn't stretch out his hand to shake hands, but arched his hand and said, "Hello Professor Wu, your body is still tough." ”

The old professor also returned the salute: "Ren Qiancang!" Haha, I saw it in the newspapers. It's really young and promising. Are you taking care of this collection now? ”

"I just came back, and I don't think I'm taking care of it, but I'm just getting used to it. Old professor sit! I invite you to come today to learn about our family's collection back then. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare."

After the two of them sat down on the low floor, I also helped the old lady to sit down on the big chair beside me, and I still have experience in accompanying an old lady. When I was in college, I had the experience of accompanying an old lady in the past. In fact, whatever the old man says, he should just be reconciled.

The old lady looked at me, looked me up and down, and said, "Yo, this is the little daughter-in-law." It's so tender. Hey, I remember that when the old man of our family opened that tomb for the Ren family, it was more than 50 years ago. Yo that's not right. The old lady looked at Ren Qiancang sitting above, "You are the great-grandson of the Ren family." That's not right, I read the newspaper that day and said that it wasn't like that. What to say, Ren Qiancang, the heir of the Ren family, has been missing for more than ten years. Alas, girl, it's not clear here. ”

I listened, although the old lady's expression was already a little confused, I could still understand what she meant, she had noticed Ren Qiancang's age. I hurriedly laughed and said, "Grandma, he's forty years old." ”

"Forty? What about you? You look like twenty. Tsk, in this society now, how can I find someone so much older than myself. When I got married to the old man. Their family also said that they wanted a woman three years older than him. ”

I laughed and said, "Yes, didn't you say that the female junior holds the gold brick?" The old professor's achievements today must be inseparable from the support of his grandmother. ”

"Of course. Don't talk about anything else, when he opened the tomb for your Ren family, everyone said that there were strange things in the tomb, and they didn't dare to open the coffin. Or I told him, go ahead, you open, you have a chance to be promoted. He really went to open it, and then he was promoted. Without me, he's still a ......."

"Hey, hey, what nonsense are you old woman." The old professor sitting on it said, "I was going to open the coffin, but you didn't let me go." What do so many people say that there is something strange in the tomb, and when I went, I was robbed by a female ghost. ”

"Well, I said old man, how can you distort the facts?"

I smiled and said, "Okay, Second Elder, we invite you here today just to hear your story." Let's tell the story of the tomb of our Ren family. ”

"Yo, that's a long story." The old professor said first. The old lady also said: "It's been so many years, and I don't know if I still remember everything." ”

"Granny," I said hurriedly, "say as much as you can remember." We loved it. ”

Many times, the elderly are at home, and they just want to tell stories that are different and some people want to listen to them. I say this as listening to them tell a story, and I'm sure they'll be happy to keep it going. Ren Qiancang was over there and gave me a praising smile. I smiled at him too. I believe that I will be like this grandmother, by my husband's side.

The story told by the old man is indeed very long, and there are many things that are repeated, and even overturned. We spent the whole afternoon listening to the stories told by the old man, and asked the outside staff to prepare dinner for us, and even dinner was eaten here. In order to take care of the taste of the elderly, the dishes ordered are steamed eggs, meat foam or something.

This story made us hear it until after eight o'clock in the evening before it ended. The security guards in the collection were arranged to drive the old man back, and we followed him downstairs.

The two old men stood in front of the car, and I asked thoughtfully, "Grandma, you have worked hard today." I'll invite you two to play in our big yard another day. Don't tell the story anymore, then it won't be so tiring. ”

"What a good boy. Don't worry, grandma loves to tell stories. As long as you listen, grandma will be willing to speak. ”

Watching them get into the car and the car drove away, I rubbed my shoulders as well. I did get a little tired today. I didn't sleep well last night, and I didn't have a day off today.

Ren Qiancang stood behind me, helped me rub my shoulders and said, "Thank you." ”

"Don't say thank you to me." It was already dark, and there were no lights in the parking lot of this family. I turned around and hugged his waist and leaned against him, "Today's story is wonderful. ”

"Well, although there are still many doubts, we can follow these clues. Go home, you're tired, go home and rest. ”

I nodded. Now in the Ren family's compound, there is no longer the feeling of depression and suffocation that I had at the beginning. I know that I have gradually adapted to my current life and appeared as the wife of the Ren family.

Today's story makes me more certain that I want to be by Ren Qiancang's side, no matter what happens in the future.

Fifty years ago, archaeological excavations began with the discovery of a large tomb. The tombstone in the tomb clearly indicates that the owner of this tomb is the eldest lady of the Ren family, nineteen years old, who died under the knife of her fiancΓ©. It is not written why she was killed, but judging from the fact that after being killed, a tomb was built, it can be seen that the Ren family was rich and powerful at that time, and it can also be seen that the status of this eldest lady in the Ren family is definitely not as simple as an ordinary deep lady. There must be a misunderstanding in her death, and if she did something wrong, she would not have built a tomb.

The female corpse in the well in the northwest corner of the Ren family's courtyard is this eldest lady.
