Chapter 37 The Huang Family's Old House
Zhonghai Huang family, a surname that ordinary people in Zhonghai City are very familiar with, it represents a legend, just like Zhonghai people know Du Yuesheng, and so does the Huang family.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the first mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee of Zhonghai City was served by Huang Xinmin, the father of Huang Qichang, the old man of the Huang family.
Since then, Huang Xinmin's son, who is now the old man of the Huang family, Huang Qichang, took over his father's class and served as the mayor of Zhonghai City and the secretary of the municipal party committee, until a few years ago, when he retired to care for the elderly at home.
Until today, the third generation of the Huang family, Huang Qichang's eldest son, Huang Yuerenguan, became the deputy mayor of Zhonghai City, in charge of the economic power of a city, and there is hope to continue the glory of the Huang family in the future, taking over as the mayor of Zhonghai City and even the secretary of the municipal party committee.
One door and three mayors, the Huang family can be said to be brilliant to the pinnacle, especially in the third generation, in a few months will be the time for the leadership of Zhonghai City to change, and Huang Yueren, the deputy mayor of Zhonghai City, who has always been optimistic, will be the most powerful contender for the post of mayor of Zhonghai City.
Of course, the premise is that Huang Yueren has nothing to do with the recent corruption and bribery case, otherwise, the glory of the Huang family is destined to end in this generation.
In fact, as early as before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Huang family did not engage in politics, the family started in business, was a famous salt merchant in Zhonghai City at that time, Huang Xinmin when he was young once sat in the position of the president of the Zhonghai Municipal Chamber of Commerce, which was almost comparable to the mayor of Shanghai at that time, and the family history can be traced back to the end of the last century.
The old house of the Huang family is an ancient building located at the foot of Hero Mountain that tends to be European-style, with a history of more than 100 years, and this is an early manor.
The architectural styles around the manor vary greatly, some are more Western-style and some are more oriental, but without exception, all exude the vicissitudes of history.
The people who can live here all have extraordinary status and capital before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it can be said that this is where the most influential people in Zhonghai City are located.
Ling Xiao took a taxi to this side, and when he told the taxi driver where he was going, the taxi driver once confirmed to him, which made Ling Xiao's young heart very hurt, and he looked himself up and down more than once, and said secretly, don't I look like a rich man?
Like other estates, the area of the residences here is very large, with wide lawns, colorful flowers, and many busy craftsmen, in a place like Zhonghai City, where every inch of land is at a premium, such a life is far from being comparable to the word 'luxury'.
"It seems that the situation is far more complicated than imagined!" Ling Xiao came to the gate of the Huang Family Manor after getting out of the car, and touched his chin and muttered after wandering around casually.
The gate of the manor opens and closes to both sides, and everything in the manor can be clearly seen through the gap, but the scene that Ling Xiao can see is a little weird.
At the end of March and the beginning of April of the lunar calendar, it is the season of revival of plants and trees, and it is thriving everywhere, and the same is true of the Huang family, with green grass and flowers, and it looks endless, but compared with it, the periphery of the manor is a little miserable.
Contrary to the vibrant scene in the manor, the plants and trees growing on the periphery are not good, and even many flowers and plants have begun to wither before they have sprouted, which is unreasonable, it stands to reason that the Huang family's luck is inexhaustible, and there is no sign of decay, such a vision should not happen.
Ling Xiao's face was full of puzzlement, standing in front of the door of the Huang family's old house, his hands were sealed to calculate, according to the geographical location, the direction of the planting of plants and trees, and the direction of the air flow of the Yang house, etc., he made a detailed analysis, and the results were without exception, all of them were auspicious, and when this manor was built earlier, it was obvious that a master who knew feng shui had designed it for it, and there was also a feng shui bureau, and there had been no problems for so many years.
In this way, the source of the trouble must have nothing to do with the Huang Family Feng Shui Bureau, according to Huang Yuerong's dream, someone should have complained to the Yin official, and the result was family restlessness, but the Huang family has always been of good character, and during the period of government, they also had many achievements in the local government, and it should not be a manifestation that harms Yin morality, so what is the problem? This makes Ling Xiao extremely puzzled.
In desperation, Ling Xiao could only measure on foot, searching along the edge of the wall with his hand, and every step was in accordance with the steps of Tiangang Beidou, in order to perceive the slightest anomaly around.
Soon, Ling Xiao circled around the huge courtyard of the Huang family, but after calculating, he came to the conclusion that the Huang family's luck was no different, and it was perfect in all aspects, but it also made Ling Xiao vigilant.
Lao Tzu said: The way of heaven is like a bow and the higher one suppresses it, the lower one lifts it, the surplus loses it, and the insufficient one is with it, and the way of heaven loses more than enough and makes up for the deficiency.
Even the Heavenly Dao is like this, there is no reason why everything in the Huang family is perfect, and no problem itself is a big problem.
"What is going on here? Is it because things must not be reversed? No, there are many places that don't make sense! Buddhism has clouds, big dreams are 3,000, life is like a dream bubble, everything is false, is it ...... I seem to understand a little, when the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is no place for inaction! I see!"
Ling Xiao suddenly had an idea, and thought of the key to it, so his brows couldn't help but stretch, and the corners of his mouth hung up with a smile.
"I think it was done by a foreign body who practiced the Tao, this was calculated by someone! Fortunately, the Huang family's luck is not weak, otherwise they might have killed people. Ling Xiao shook his head, and after figuring out some places, he was faintly helpless.
"Hey, who are you, boy, why do you keep walking around our doors, what do you want?"
At this moment, a childish voice came from afar, and it was found that in front of the gate of the Huang family, I don't know when a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy came out, holding a husky that looked like it was more than a full moon, and was there at Ling Xiaolang.
Ling Xiao looked left and right, and found that there was no one around, only himself, thinking that the young man was talking to himself, and he couldn't help but be annoyed, this little rabbit cub actually scolded himself for being a kid, and really wanted to go over and beat his ass.
"Who are you, kid? Why do you say I'm hanging around at your door! Accusing a good person, what evidence do you have? Looking for a beating?" Ling Xiao raised his head and shouted at the little boy with a posture of what can you do with me.
"Hmph! The master already found out about you an hour ago, and you dare not admit it? Believe it or not, I let the dog bite you. The little guy had a bad temper and threatened Ling Xiao, but when he looked at the little Erha in his hand, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Hey, people are small-tempered, this is your house, right? Your dad should be ...... Huang Yueren?" Ling Xiao looked funny, but he didn't want to tease him anymore, his eyes rolled, and then he asked the young man.
"How do you know my dad? Oh no, I slipped my mouth, damn it, you dare to lie to me, you don't look like a good person at first glance, you wait for me, I'll go and tell my aunt." ”
The child didn't have any scheming, and his mouth was exposed, and then he became vigilant, and he screamed and went into the crack in the door, thinking that he was going back to complain to his parents.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile when he saw it, touched his chin, and secretly said Why doesn't Lao Tzu look like a good person?
"I'll do the math, huh...... The time is not yet ripe, the three-day deadline has not yet arrived, and today is destined to be unexpected, so it seems that we can only wait until tomorrow. ”
Ling Xiao saw the boy run away, and with a little calculation in his hand, he realized that today was not a good time to meet, then shook his head, raised his feet and walked towards the foot of Hero Mountain, and soon found a taxi at the intersection, got in the car and drove towards his new residence.
At the beginning, Ling Xiao had agreed with Huang Yuerong that Huang Yuerong would come to the City God Temple to find him after three days. This time is not set by Ling Xiao randomly, but accurate information obtained after careful calculation.
Because he had deduced it several times, three days later, there would be an opportunity for the Huang family, and with this opportunity, maybe the problems faced by the Huang family could be solved.
What's more, Ling Xiao had consumed a lot before, and he had to prepare something to face the crisis that might happen at any time tomorrow, maybe it would be another battle, so it was the key to go home now to recuperate.
