Wei Shangxing smiled, nodded at Peter, picked up the wine glass, and said, "Peter is good, with a little training, he will be able to take charge on his own." With that, he drank the wine.

This Peter Hu was accustomed to drinking foreign wine, so he suddenly drank baijiu, and after toasting Wei Shangxing and Qian Dafa with a glass of wine each, he was choked by the pungency of baijiu and coughed again and again.

Seeing this, Wei Shangxing said: "Peter, let's take a break, Assistant Jiang, you go and make a cup of tea for Peter, last time we came to visit Mr. Hu together, you have made tea here, and you are familiar with the items." You can't drink liquor too quickly, drink it slowly. ”

Jiang Yanan answered, then stood up and walked into the study of Mr. Hu next door.

Qian Dafa looked at Peter Hu next to him with a flushed face, and said: "That's it for drinking liquor, just drink more." Come, Mr. Wei, there are no outsiders today, I'll accompany you to drink a few more. ”

Although Qian Dafa's alcohol consumption is not as good as Wei Shangxing's, but today's occasion, he had to force himself to accompany the wine, when the second bottle of liquor was drunk, Qian Dafa was already drunk, Wang Jingchen didn't drink much, so he called the company's driver to drive Qian Dafa home, Wei Shangxing saw this and asked her to go home with the car first.

When the driver arrived, Hu Zili and Hu Peter worked together to carry Qian Dafa and send him to the car, Wang Jingchen read Hu Shixun's past kindness to her, staggered behind, and waited for Qian and Wang to get into the car, Hu Zili explained to the driver, watched the car drive out steadily, and then turned around and followed Hu Peter back to the living room.

Hu Zili father and son walked back to the door of the living room, raised their eyes to look in, but found that the dining table was empty, the two of them looked at each other, and hurriedly ran to the room on the west side of the study, Peter Hu took out the key to open the door, pressed the switch, and scanned the room, but saw that the furniture in the room was in order, and there was no Wei and Jiang.

Peter Hu frowned and asked, "It's strange, where did these two go?" ”

Hu Zili said in surprise: "When we sent Mr. Qian and Manager Wang out just now, the two of them were still sitting at the dining table, and they looked drunk, so they shouldn't leave, right?" ”

Peter Hu locked the door, accompanied Hu Zili and walked back to the living room, as soon as the two walked into the living room, they heard a low snoring sound coming from Hu Shixun's bedroom, the two were shocked, their scalps tightened, they looked at each other, walked in boldly, turned on the electric light, and saw Wei Shangxing lying on his back in the center of the bed, and Jiang Yanan lying on his side.

Hu Zili stepped forward and shouted, "Mr. Wei, Assistant Jiang, Mr. Wei, Assistant Jiang." But seeing that Wei and Jiang had no reaction, they walked to the wardrobe next to them, opened the wardrobe and took out a thin quilt, unfolded it and covered the two, then patted Peter Hu's arm, pointed to the living room, and the two quietly walked to the living room.

After a while, Peter Hu came back with a pot of tea and two porcelain cups, he put the teapot and teacup on the table next to the bed, took out a plate of mosquito coils from his trouser pocket and lit it with a lighter and put it next to the teapot, then turned out the electric light and walked out, and closed the door with his backhand.

Wei Shangxing slowly opened his eyes, gently patted Jiang Yanan's back with his hand, pointed in the direction of the living room, the two glanced at each other, and listened to the conversation between Hu Zili and Peter Zheng in the living room. I faintly heard Hu Zili say, "Why are you coming back?" We deliberately hid grandpa's affairs from you, but we didn't want you to come back, and you said that you happened to want to come back and have a look, so you caught up, I don't believe it. Come back, come back, you have done your filial piety to your grandfather, just go back to Shanghai, why do you have to go to 'Xinhu City' to work? You still hide from me and ask Jinhe to help you, you don't know that my grandfather and you, including Uncle Qian, have transferred all the shares. Listen to my advice and go back to Shanghai tomorrow! ”

Peter Hu said: "I'm not going anywhere, this is my home, I don't want to wait for me to come back next time, not even here!" ”

Hu Zili said angrily in a low voice: "You can't listen to my words at all, it's been like this since you were a child, look at how many disasters you have caused?" There is no discussion about this matter, I will tell Mr. Wei early tomorrow morning, I can't do it or not! ”

Peter Hu said coldly: "Whoever eats the things of our Hu family will spit them out!" ”

Hu Zili scolded: "You fool! The shares were sold by your grandfather on his own initiative, how can anyone say that they can't eat it! ”

Peter Zheng snorted coldly and said, "If no one forces him, will he sell it?" ”

Hu Zili gasped and said: "You, you, you are really confused, you believe everything others say, and you can't listen to a word of your father's words." Okay, okay, I'm not going to tell you, my chest hurts a little, you go to my car and get my medicine, it's in the brown handbag on the co-pilot, you bring the handbag with you. ”

Peter Hu said, "Good, good, good." He walked out quickly.

Hu Zili watched Peter Hu walk into the corridor between the south courtyard and the north courtyard, hurriedly sat up from the chair, walked quickly to the door of Hu Shixun's bedroom, pushed open the door, turned on the electric light, rushed to the bedside, and shouted: "Mr. Wei, Mr. Wei, get up, get up, get up......

Hu Zili shouted several times, but Wei Shangxing couldn't pretend too much, so he opened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Hu Zili said: "Our house is old, the facilities are old, I'm afraid you won't be used to sleeping, I think it's better to send you back to the hotel." ”

Wei Shangxing said: "It's okay, it's okay." He was shocked and thought, "Oh no, this is poisoned!" Wei Shangxing hurriedly shouted: "Jiang Yanan, Jiang Yanan, wake up, wake up!" ”

Jiang Yanan opened her eyes and said anxiously, "I can't move." ”

Hu Zili asked in surprise, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Wei Shangxing's brain quickly recalled the possible poisoning link tonight, and suddenly remembered the mosquito coil next to him, and said: "Mr. Hu, quickly extinguish the mosquito coil." ”

Hu Zili turned around suspiciously, reached out to pick up the mosquito coil, raised his leg and wanted to go out, but his legs were limp and sat on the ground, shook his hand, and saw that his hand could still move, so he pressed the mosquito coil on the floor. Hu Zili pressed the mosquito coil, supported the floor with his arms and tried to stand up, but found that his legs and feet were not strong. He lay on the ground in horror and shouted, "Mr. Wei, why can't I stand up." ”

Wei Shangxing said: "Don't worry, you just came in, it's not a big problem, you crawl outside the house, find a basin of cold water to splash on your face, and it will be fine in a while." Hurry up and climb, the longer you stay, the more you won't be able to move. ”

Hu Zili supported his body with his arms and crawled towards the door with all his might, he knew in his heart that this must have been done by Peter, at this time he didn't dare to call the police, he was afraid of losing this single seedling, and he didn't dare to wait for Peter to come back with medicine, he was also afraid that this child would impulsively break into a big disaster. At the moment, he just wanted to crawl out of the house as quickly as possible, so that he could recover as quickly as possible, so as to stop him from continuing to make mistakes.

Hu Zili crawled out of the bedroom, he had heard a series of "dong dong ......" footsteps, he struggled to crawl to the door of the living room, put his head outside, and breathed in the cool air...... Peter saw his father lying on the threshold from afar, and thinking that he might have had a heart attack, he hurried over and shouted, "Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

Hu Zili gasped and said, "I'm fine, maybe I have a heart attack, have you found medicine?" ”

Peter Hu said: "Found it, found it." He hurriedly took out a bottle of medicine from his bag and handed it to Hu Zili.

Hu Zili looked at the medicine bottle and said, "Go to the table and get a cup of herbal tea." ”

Peter Hu didn't have time to think about it, he hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to the dining table, brought a cup of herbal tea, turned around and squatted down to put the teacup on the ground, took the medicine bottle in Hu Zili's hand and unscrewed it, poured the medicine into his palm, and stretched it out in front of Hu Zili.

Hu Zili trembled his hands, took two pills from his son's palm, put them in his mouth, swallowed them hard, and then picked up the tea cup from the ground and raised his hand to splash the herbal tea on his face.

Peter Hu asked in surprise, "Dad, what are you doing here?" ”

This herbal tea was splashed on his face, and then he raised his head and was blown by the cool breeze, Hu Zili's lower body instantly became conscious, he stretched his legs, and felt that his legs were not very strong, so he wanted to rest again, so he tricked Peter and said: "I have a new special medicine, this is how to eat, and it works quickly." Go and bring me a chair, and I'll sit down and rest. ”

Peter hurriedly brought a chair from the side, put it on the inside of the living room door, and then sat on the chair with his hands on his hands, and then took a tissue to wipe the tea and tea off his father's face. As soon as he looked up, he saw the light in the bedroom next to him on, he straightened up his waist and raised his legs and wanted to go to the bedroom, but Hu Zili grabbed his belt.

Hu Zili opened his eyes angrily and said, "You stand, go and get me a cup of herbal tea." ”

Peter reluctantly stopped his feet and turned to the table. Hu Zili took the opportunity to slowly get up from the chair, dragged the chair to the bedroom door, and returned to the chair himself.

Peter walked back with a cup of herbal tea in his hand and handed the cup to his father. He asked, "Dad, what are you doing?" ”

Hu Zili took the teacup, took a sip, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at his son gently, and asked, "Have you ever killed someone?" ”

Peter said, "Then I don't!" ”

Hu Zili looked at the dark courtyard and said, "Neither do I, nor does your grandfather." But the owner of this yard has been killed, and it is still a baby. ”

Peter looked at his father in amazement and asked, "Dad, where is this?" You can tell me about these old Huang Li when you have time, and I'll go in and see Mr. Wei and Assistant Jiang. ”

Hu Zili said calmly: "I know what you want to do, but you have to listen to me, Mr. Wei and Assistant Jiang are sleeping well inside, and they can't move, don't you rush this time!" ”

Peter snorted impatiently and pulled a chair across from his father.

Hu Zili said: "Actually, your grandfather, your grandfather, your grandfather and I, of course, including you, we are not surnamed Hu." ”

Peter looked at his father with wide eyes in astonishment, and said, "What did you say?" Let's talk nonsense. ”

As soon as Hu Zili said this, not only his son was surprised, but also Wei Shangxing and Jiang Yanan inside.

Hu Zili continued: "I knew about this matter four years ago, that day your grandfather specially called me to the study next door to say it, he said that if he had any accidents, let me know the history of our family, and he also specially instructed me to tell you at the right time." I think today is the right time, you are at a crossroads in your life, and it is necessary for me to tell you the history of our family to help you choose the right direction. ”

Peter's mind was confused, and he nodded and looked at his father.

Hu Zili took a sip of herbal tea and continued: "Our village is an ancient village with a history of thousands of years, and the people who originally lived in this village were all surnamed Yang, and it was not until the early years of the Qing Dynasty that a family surnamed Hu moved in. This family is not simple, they bought 100 acres of fertile land when they came, and they also built a compound in our location, which is the location of our south courtyard. The people surnamed Yang and Hu are very kind, and the two ethnic groups have lived in harmony for hundreds of years. It wasn't until 1938 that the Japanese entered Xinzhou City and built a stronghold on our Cuiping Mountain. The commander of the Japanese army in this stronghold is called Cai Shengichiro, this person is greedy, our Yanghu Village and the surrounding villages are not lightly punished, and burning, killing and looting are commonplace. He heard a rumor, saying that it was the big landlord of Yanghu Village, Mr. Hu, who hid an antiquity at home, this antiquity was the little emperor of Shunzhi before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and the doll emperor was named, and the person who actually operated it was Dolgon, and he spent a lot of money to build a 'antler gold chair' for him in order to buy Wu Sangui, which was also called 'white chair' by the world because of its white body. ”

Peter exclaimed, "We have this 'white chair' in our house, that's great!" ”

Hu Zili said: "You be quiet, this 'white chair' is not a good thing, not to mention that Wu Sangui surrendered to the Qing army, let the Qing army enter the customs, and killed how many Ming sons and daughters." Let's just say that in order to force Master Hu to hand over the 'white chair', Cai Shengichiro detained Master Hu's only son in the stronghold and occupied his daughter-in-law. Master Hu was forced to do nothing, but it was also said that every day should not be called the earth. But Master Hu insisted that he didn't have it at home, and Cai Shengichiro had no choice. But later, Cai Shengichiro still snatched this thing in the hands of a family surnamed Ma in Xinzhou City. ”

Peter said disappointedly, "It turns out that we don't have this treasure in our family!" ”

Hu Zili scolded: "What are you, a baby with full eyes? Why don't you want to think about who this Master Hu is? How many sins he and his family have suffered, why don't you care! ”

Peter resignedly said: "Isn't this old man Hu my grandfather's grandfather?" ”

Hu Zili said: "It's really not. It is said that this Cai Shengichiro occupied the daughter-in-law of Master Hu, and in 1939 he gave birth to a son to this beast, which made Cai Shengichiro very happy, he shamelessly wanted to live his free life here for a long time, and forced the people of the surrounding villages to contribute money and efforts to expand the house of Master Hu, and doubled in size, and the house built is now the 'Hu family's old house'. But their good days came to an end when Japan announced its surrender on August 15, 1945. But the strange thing is that one night when the Japanese army stronghold was waiting to be received, a fire broke out, and the devils in the stronghold were burned clean and dead. And Master Hu's son was also burned to death in the stronghold, Master Hu was angry, and when he came back, he strangled Cai Shengichiro's son, and her daughter-in-law also broke down and committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake. ”
