Chapter 1 Suspected Deceased

For these questions in my heart, I desperately want to ask my second uncle for clarification. But when the words came to my lips, I held back again.

Because I think there must be a huge hidden story behind the Zhuo family's ancestral home and ancestral grave. The second uncle never told me these things, and it was obvious that he was hiding it from me. If I rashly bring up the matter about the ancestral house now, it is very likely that I will not get the truth. Now there is a situation that is more favorable to me, that is, the second uncle does not know that I already know these things about the ancestral house. So I want to continue to pay attention to the investigation myself until the time comes. I'm no longer the same mallet I used to be, and I can't always let them lead me by the nose.

Of course, for my first question, about the two things left by the second uncle, I think I can still find a chance to ask, after all, even if I don't say it, when Yuan An and the second uncle meet in the future, the second uncle will know that I handed over the things to Yuan An.

The second uncle saw that I didn't answer, and was in a daze, so he shook his hand in front of my eyes, "Hey! What do you want? ”

I was startled and snapped back to my senses, "Ah, I was thinking about this time, I accidentally wandered." "I casually lied.

The second uncle didn't doubt it, "I asked you just now, what are your plans for the next few days?" Why don't I arrange for Xiao Chen to take you around to play? ”

I shook my head, "Forget it, second uncle, you don't have to worry about me, you still have a company here, things must be indispensable, you should be busy with yours." I'm such an adult, you don't have to take care of me. I'll just walk around on my own. ”

The second uncle raised his eyebrows, "Now the company is yours, and you have to manage it!" Big nephew, you're not too young, so you don't plan for your future? ”

I smiled bitterly, "Second uncle, I'm just planning for my future, and I can't come up and be the boss!" Second uncle, I don't know anything about your company, so you can come by yourself, and you can just take care of me when the time comes. ”

The second uncle sighed, nodded, and patted me on the shoulder, "Let's go, go eat!" ”

In the next few days, the second uncle began to take care of his own company's affairs again, and during this time, he also called the family pharmacy to inquire about the situation there. In short, the second uncle is very busy, but I am very idle.

My second uncle gave me a bank card, so my life was very nourishing. In addition to going to the hospital every day to see Anado, he also went around the places where he could play near Guiyang.

After about a week, my physical condition has improved a lot, and there is good news from Anado's side, she seems to have some signs of awakening, which makes several of us excited, especially the second uncle, I haven't seen him so ecstatic for many years.

Now that Anado's condition has improved, and I'm almost recovered, I think it's almost time for me to go home. One day, I had breakfast at the hotel, and I was going to go to my second uncle to say goodbye. But when I got into a taxi and drove out a short distance, at a bend in the road, I inadvertently turned my head and suddenly saw a man wearing a hat.

The taxi speed is not slow, and I have a quick glimpse of this person's appearance. But at this glance, I had a strange sense of familiarity, I was sure I didn't know this man, but I just felt as if I had seen him somewhere, and it was an unusual meeting.

This thought flashed in my head, but I just couldn't grasp it, and it made me very uncomfortable. I closed my eyes and carefully recalled the people I had met or might have met during this time, and suddenly, my mind lit up! I finally remembered that I had seen this person there, in the second uncle's office, in the photo on his wall! The one who hooked up with the second uncle! The person I saw just now seems to be the old brother skin!

But that's not right! I was suddenly puzzled, because I clearly remembered that I once asked Lao Zhuang of the second uncle's company, and he told me that this man called Lao Gepi was dead! Could it be that what the hell am I doing?!

I quickly told the driver to stop, threw down the money and ran back. But when I ran back to the place just now, the person who seemed to be the old brother was gone.

I searched around for a while, but there was still no sign of the man. This is a prosperous area, people come and go, and it is not easy to find someone, so I have no choice but to give up.

I thought about it for a while, worried that there was something wrong with this matter, so I took a taxi again and went straight to my second uncle's company. As soon as I entered the second uncle's office, I saw that he was holding a pen and didn't know what he was writing, and the second uncle was slightly stunned when he saw me coming in, and then immediately smiled, "Yo, what kind of wind blew you here, and the leader came to inspect the work?" ”

I glanced at my second uncle, "Don't beat me up for your old man!" I'm here for business! ”

"Oh?" As he spoke, the second uncle put down the pen in his hand, "What's the matter?" Go ahead. ”

I stood up and found a photo of the second uncle and my brother Pi on the wall, and pointed with my hand, "Second uncle, tell me who this person is?" ”

The second uncle couldn't help but be stunned, "How did you remember asking this person?" Do you know him? ”

I shook my head, "I don't know!" Who the hell is this person? ”

The second uncle stood up and looked at the photo, and couldn't help sighing, "This person is a friend of mine, and he also helped me a lot back then, but unfortunately, when I went out once, it caught up with heavy rain, and his car lost control on the mountain road, fell into the valley and was washed away by the torrent." It can be seen that the second uncle is still a little sad when he thinks about this incident now.

The second uncle's statement was the same as what Lao Zhuang said, and I nodded lightly.

The second uncle looked at me and asked strangely, "Why are you asking this?" ”

I told my second uncle, "When I first came to the company, you had already gone to Guangxi at that time. I was in this office and saw this picture. And later it was learned from the workers that the man was dead. But just now, on the way here, I saw a person who looked like the person in the photo, and I thought I had seen a ghost, or maybe the person in the photo was not dead! ”

The second uncle was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight!" But this man has indeed been dead for many years, and when his car was recovered, I went to see it, and I think you must have seen it wrong. ”

I scratched my head a little embarrassed, "Maybe, it seems I'm a little too sensitive." ”

The second uncle poured me a glass of water, "Actually, it's all the fault of the second uncle, who has involved you in this kind of thing again and again." In the future, you should not participate in this kind of thing in any case, this is not the life you should have. ”

I was depressed, and I said, I don't want to, but every time I can't help myself! I took a sip of water and said to my second uncle, "Second uncle, in fact, I came this time to say goodbye to you. It's been so long, it's time for me to go back. And I'm fine now, and my parents won't find out when I go back. ”

The second uncle groaned for a moment and nodded, "Yes, yes, you should indeed go back, your father called me yesterday to ask about you, and I said that you and I learned to do the medicinal herb business here, which helped me a lot." Don't say anything about it when you go back! ”

I laughed, "Okay, second uncle, don't worry." Hey, by the way, when will you go back, second uncle? ”

"Let's go some time!" The second uncle thought for a while and said, "I still have to deal with the mess here." I'll call you when I get back. When the time comes, please have a big meal! ”

"Okay, it's a deal!"

At noon, my second uncle and I had a simple meal, and after that, the second uncle sent someone to send me to Longdongbao Airport. Sitting on the plane, looking at the snow-white thick clouds outside the window, recalling the experience of some time ago, it was like a dream. After the rough waves, my state of mind gradually calmed down, and the feeling of comfort and calm at this time was also pleasant. I can't help but wonder if my life will ever be like this forever. But who knows. Sometimes the storm whirlpool comes so suddenly that I don't have time to dodge, and I can't dodge.

The plane landed at Tianjin Binhai International Airport, after all, it was closer to transfer home from Tianjin, so I didn't choose to go to Beijing for a layover. Besides, I don't want to disturb the Lantern Festival, he and Sisi reunited after a long absence, although I don't know if they can have a glimpse, but I still don't want to be a light bulb at this time.

Transferring home from Tianjin Airport, it was already evening. My parents are still waiting for me to eat, looking at the dishes I love to eat on the table, my heart is very warm, and my eyes are hot.

"I'm going to wash my hands!" I turned and rushed into the bathroom, quickly washed my face, and washed away the tears from my eyes.

However, during the meal, my sharp-eyed mother quickly noticed a scratch on my head. I hurriedly made up a lie and said: "Over there in Guizhou, I have to go into the mountains with my second uncle from time to time to collect medicine, where the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and it is inevitable that there will be a scratch, Mom, you don't have to worry." ”

Hearing me say this, my mother eased up a bit, but she immediately said to my father: "Lao Zhuo, let me tell you, you go back and talk to the second child, don't always run to the mountains with Xiao Ran, how unsafe it is, if you scratch your face and leave a scar on your face, it will be difficult to find a wife in the future!" ”

Dad smiled, "It's nothing, a man has a little scar on his body, then it tastes like a man!" When we were in the engineering team, wasn't it just where we went hard! It's nothing for a boy to suffer a little. However, he still nodded and said: "As for this matter, I will mention it to the second child when I go back, don't keep running around outside, and don't care about the store at home!" Your second uncle is really, such an adult, and his heart is still so heavy. ”

Hearing my father say this, I wanted to defend my second uncle, but I suddenly found that I really didn't know what to say, so I had to give up.
