Volume 1 Chapter 78: Transformation
I told my second brother that I helped Cha Sisi and their family pay back the money, and the second brother nodded to me.
The second brother said to me earnestly: "The ancients, tomb robbers, hurt yin and morality, and bring disaster to children and grandchildren; Although we are not here to fight inverted this time, in fact, it is no different from the inverted fight in essence, it is all something that touches the dead.... So if you can accumulate some goodness, you can accumulate a little more, not to mention that the girl's family is your life-saving benefactor. ”
I agree with the second brother's words very much.
Our ancestors of the Zhang family have been tomb robbers since ancient times, so when it came to my grandfather and my father's generation, they died in the tomb and were shot. This can be regarded as the fate of my grandfather's tomb robbery and his descendants, no wonder others.
Although the second brother has always suspected that he was fired by the enemy back then, he has not found any substantial evidence over the years.
And I heard that once the family members get older, none of them live past the age of 70, and basically they all die of terminal illness, and none of them enjoy their old age in peace.
In the evening, we had dinner together at Zhuo Sang's house, and Master Cao suggested that I go and call Cha Sisi too.
"Forget it, let's have dinner with a few old men, what's the matter with calling a girl's house. Besides, she doesn't know us well, and she can't take care of her when she talks at the dinner table, how awkward. ”
Dawu teased: "Third Master Qiu, what are you afraid of? You didn't even ask the girl if she wanted to come, maybe the girl liked you and wanted to have this meal with you. ”
"Your uncle's.... If she doesn't come today, I'll have to smash your dog's mouth, and I'll clean up all day! ”
When I returned to Cha Sisi's house, I found that she was painting a vase, and Cha Youping was not at home, and Cha Sisi told me that he had gone up to the mountains to hunt, and it seemed that he was going to spend the night in the mountains, and he would not be back until tomorrow morning.
Cha Sisi and Cha Youping still don't know that I have helped them pay off their debts, and Cha Youping will still go hunting overnight so hard.
Of course, I don't want them to know now. When I get down, it won't be long before they'll know, and they won't have to do it so much.
I even plan to leave a little more money for Zhuo Sang tomorrow before leaving, and let Zhuo Sang transfer it to Cha Sisi in a few days, and use the money to renovate her house.
"That's right, do you want to go to Zhuo Sang's house to have a meal with me and my second brother, we will go down the mountain tomorrow morning."
Cha Sisi put down the paintbrush and glanced at me, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes: "A few of you eat together, it's not good for me to go as an outsider...."
I smiled and replied, "How can you be considered an outsider?" You saved my life, except for my parents, you were the one who gave me life! ”
Seeing me say this, Cha Sisi also agreed and followed me to Zhuo Sang's house.
When Dawu saw that I was bringing Cha Sisi here, he smiled evilly: "Third Master Qiu, what did I say, people will definitely be willing to come with you here." ”
I scolded angrily, unwilling to deal with him.
Cha Sisi looked a little shy at the dinner table, and I introduced her to the second brother and a few of them in turn.
The second brother sincerely expressed his gratitude to Cha Sisi, saying that if Cha Sisi hadn't saved me, he would have lost me, his only brother.
Cha Sisi was originally a generous girl, and in the process of eating, she gradually became familiar with the second brother and them, no longer as restrained as she was at the beginning, and occasionally made jokes with the unserious Dawu and Master Cao.
I was in a trance again, feeling that we were not strangers now, that Cha Sisi was my girlfriend, and that I had brought her to dinner with my family.
During the chat, Cha Sisi also revealed that he longed for life outside the mountain, and the second brother immediately said: "If you want, you can go out with us tomorrow when we go down the mountain, and I can send you to any city you want to go to..."
Cha Sisi was obviously excited for a moment, but the next second she shook her head and forced a smile: "Thank you, but I can't go out yet." ”
The second brother wanted to say something more, but after looking at me, he chose to remain silent.
I said: "Sisi, in fact, you don't have to have a burden in your heart, your father also hopes that you can get out of the mountains, and it is impossible to achieve anything great in this village.... Don't you like to draw, if you can get out of here, you can go to the Academy of Fine Arts to learn better about painting, can't you? ”
"I know, but ....."
At this time, Ah Mao of the Zhuo Sang family appeared at our dinner table, his face was not very good-looking, and he beckoned to Cha Sisi.
Cha Sisi said sorry to us, and then went to Ah Mao.
I suddenly began to worry that Ah Mao would tell her about the debt I had helped Cha Sisi pay off in the morning.
I kept looking at Cha Sisi very Mao, and I didn't take my eyes off. Ah Mao seemed to be saying something to Cha Sisi, his expression was sincere and with a hint of extravagance, but Cha Sisi standing in front of him seemed a little overwhelmed.
Not long after, Ah Mao seemed to say something, and Cha Sisi suddenly looked back at me with an incredulous expression.
My heart sank and I realized that Ah Mao probably told Cha Sisi about the debt.
.....
Until Ah Mao left, Cha Sisi did not return to the dinner table, she left Zhuo Sang's house first.
"Okay, don't look at it, that girl is gone....." The second brother poked me with chopsticks, and said, "Go back to Xianyang tomorrow morning, and the family matter must be solved as soon as possible." ”
"Second brother, I can't help if I go back, right?"
The second brother stared at me with a smirk and said, "What's the matter, you mean you still want to stay in this village for a while?" If you want, I won't stand in the way. ”
"I didn't mean that...."
The second brother glanced at me, and then said, "That's not what it means!" When you go back this time, you and Master Cao will immediately go to the research institute to register your name and learn something..... When I was recuperating in the past two days, I also figured it out, it is impossible to completely whitewash the Zhang family, I can only move closer to a similar industry, even if it is investigated in the future, there will be a reason, just say that it is for archaeology..... So Qiuzi, you are now the most important move for the Zhang family, you have to make this move well! ”
I was stunned, the second brother is planning to build the entire Zhang family into a scientific expedition team?
"Second brother, are you planning to let the Zhang family go in the direction of archaeology?"
"That's the plan, but it's also the best thing to do. After all, the guys in the family are all lame people, and there are only a few people who can really operate it, and it costs a lot of money during this period, and whether it can be done in the end depends on one step at a time......"
I was shocked in my heart, but after thinking about it, I felt that what the second brother said was right.
Most of the guys in the Zhang family are half-, and it is difficult to change careers in archaeology, which requires very hard professional knowledge.
Even if he relies on the second brother's strong network and operation, in the end, the only thing that can be successfully cleared is probably the Touching Gold Hall managed by Master Cao.
Because only the people who touch the golden hall have the ability, which is similar to archaeology.
