Yao Sanshou is an old man who has entered the ancient world, he bowed his back with white hair, and with the support of his granddaughter, he staggered to the backyard of Yufang Pavilion.

The flower garden is separated from the front and back yards, and the backyard comes through the hanging flower gate. In front is a garden pavilion, a pond garden. And in the middle is a lobby with a plaque of "Three Seasons Hall".

The left and right sides of the hall door are hung couplets: "The peach red willow green spring is good, the wind and morning rain are new in autumn". There is one left and right ear room, one "midwinter" and one "summer", which is a cool room and warm house in the hot summer and cold winter.

It is precisely because the building has four hours and three rooms that it is called "Three Seasons Hall".

The old man looked at the couplet with cloudy eyes, and his heart moved: "This is the couplet that the old man wrote when he was young." ”

Looking at the layout of the hall, it is also very similar to a hall house of the Ren family.

"Sure it's related to the main family?" the old man entered with a nervous mood, and secretly thought: "But you have to be careful, in the past few years, I have met some people under the banner of the Ren family. Couplets and houses can be faked, so care must be taken. ”

But when he walked into the three-o'clock hall and saw the young man on the main seat, he suddenly lost his voice: "Master?"

The man in the hall is almost exactly the same as the old man he has seen since he was a child.

Seeing Yao Sanshou, Ren Hong's expression also changed. Although several years have passed, he still recognizes the identity of this old man.

This old man was his grandfather's scholar back then, named Ren Zhao. Later, he took care of his father and grew up, and after his grandfather left, his father raised him and placed him in his own courtyard. But Ren Zhao didn't want to be taken care of by the Ren family, so he asked himself to guard the ancestral grave for the Ren family.

Ren Hong still remembers that his father specially asked someone to repair the ancestral tomb, clean up the old house, and allowed Ren Zhao to live in the wing of his old house.

However, at this time, Ren Hong fabricated the identity of "Ren Li" out of thin air, and he couldn't directly come forward to recognize him. He pondered for a while, revealing a puzzled look: "Who is the old man?"

Yao Sanshou came back to his senses at this time and reflected: Yes, if it is a master, how can he be so young?

He asked tentatively: "The portrait of the old man of the child, I don't know what the son has to do with the Ren family of Lingyang County?"

"That's my family. Ren Hong downplayed his parents' names.

But after Yao Sanshou heard this, he was suspicious: "As far as the old man knows, the Ren family has only one son, Minghong. ”

"That's my brother. ”

Lu Qi, the peony fairy standing next to him, was happy: "Childe is really interesting, he actually made himself his brother?"

Yun Jia on the other side also showed a bit of amusement.

Yao Sanshou had a calm old face and looked Ren Hong up and down.

Ren Hong said with a smile: "There is no need to suspect that the old man is not an illegitimate child, but the firstborn child of my parents in their early years." It was not long after he was born, and because of his weak body, he was sent to the home of the Bailu monk to recuperate. ”

This is true, Ren Hong did have a child before, but he did not give birth because his mother had a difficult birth. As for Bailu Jushi, he is the deceased of his grandfather.

Yao Sanshou, as Ren Hong's grandfather's scholar, naturally knew Bailu Jushi. This person was a classmate of Ren Hong's grandfather in the past, but later saw the darkness of officialdom and became disheartened, so he abandoned the official and became a doctor.

The old man pondered in his heart: The old man did have a miscarriage child back then, didn't he say that the child died young? As for the Bailu monk that the old lady knew, it was a friendship of several decades, and it was reasonable to send it to him to raise.

Of course, Yao Sanshou couldn't believe it directly because of Ren Hong's words.

Next, he tried many things about the Ren family.

Ren Hong knew these things, but he pretended not to know, shook his head and said: "I was born and raised in Bailu Pavilion since I was a child, and the Ren family has not been back a few times. It's just that I write a letter to my parents every year, and even my brother has never seen it. ”

"Later, when I heard that there was an accident in Lingyang County, I went to investigate. I saw a large lake, and there was no trace of people at all. ”

Speaking of this, "Ren Li" sighed.

Yao Sanshou felt the same way and shed a few old tears.

"Later, when I walked outside, I found my own jade unicorn and the flying phoenix jade in my mother's dowry. ”

Jade Qilin?

Yao Sanshou asked eagerly: "Childe, can you let me take a look?" He immediately identified himself, "I heard" that it was the old man of the Ren family, and the young man had nothing to do, so he sent Yunjia to the back hall to fetch the jade unicorn and the flying phoenix jade.

Looking at the lifelike unicorn statue, and then looking at the white jade pu next to him, the old man was excited.

"This is really the Ren family's thing!"

Especially Fei Fengyu, there are not many people who know that this thing is the dowry of the housewife, especially the allusion of the phoenix.

It's just that on the flying phoenix jade, it seems that a piece is missing?

"When I took it back, it was destroyed, and I took a piece of jade. ”

After repeated confirmation, Yao Sanshou believed a little in his heart. But he was still a little worried, and said: "The old man escaped by luck back then, and he tried to preserve part of the Ren family's property. If the son is indeed a child of the Ren family, then this inheritance should be returned to the original owner. ”

"It's just that I want to bother Gongzi to verify it further. ”

"Further, how does the old man plan to verify it?" Ren Hong was curious, could it be that the old man Ren Zhao still knew what secret inheritance he had?

"The old man was persecuted by traitors because of the Ren family's properties. If it weren't for the help of the Yao family, it would be difficult to survive. The old god's granddaughter has a family heirloom and can distinguish the bloodline. ”

At this time, Ren Hong and Yun Jia looked at the girl in Tsing Yi beside Yao Sanshou.

The girl in Tsing Yi was quite well-behaved, standing aside to accompany the old man.

"What do you call a girl?"

"My name is Yao Qingsang. The girl said softly: "My family has practiced medicine for generations, and has inherited some ancient methods and arts, which can screen bloodline. Childe, it's rude. ”

She stepped forward and took out a silver needle from the brocade bag, wanting to take the blood from Ren Hong's fingertips.

"Wait-" Yun Jia stopped her and said vigilantly, "You plan to take a blood test?"

"Not a normal blood test. Yao Qingsang said: "This is the secret technique of Shennong, using blood to find ancestors." ”

Shennong's secret technique?

Ren Hong squinted his eyes and carefully observed Yao Qingsang. In this girl, Ren Hong vaguely felt a clear spiritual aura.

Secretly sacrificed the Kunlun Mirror, and a cloud of auspicious clouds appeared in the treasure mirror.

"She has the power to practice, and it looks like she's a god?"

Ren Hong was tempted and stretched out his left hand.

The green sac carefully takes a drop of essence blood with a large silver needle embroidered with a dragon pattern. When the essence blood is sucked into the silver needle, it automatically lights up the dragon pattern.

The girl's hand trembled, and she could barely hold it.

"Girl, slow down, don't be nervous. Yao Sanshou's expression was more nervous than the green sac, he stood beside the jade unicorn and groped, and said at the tail part: "This is it." Back then, the old lady inadvertently dropped blood on it. Green sac, dripping here. ”

Yao Qingsang dripped blood on it and recited a mantra in his mouth.

Soon, a white light came out of the jade unicorn's tail, and the drop of blood automatically merged into the white light and disappeared.

When Yao Sanshou saw it, he was immediately overjoyed, and knelt down to bow down: "Old slave Ren Zhao, meet the eldest son——"

"Hurry up, get up! Old man, please get up!" Ren Hong was so frightened that he quickly jumped up, this sudden movement, his eyes turned black, and the pain in his chest almost made him faint.

Yun Jia's face changed, and while supporting him, he said to Lu Qi: "Quick, quickly help the old man up." Then go and get Madame!"

Hanlian brought the apricot blossom fairy into the WTO, and she was already paying attention to the situation in the back. Sensing that Ren Hong had an accident, he hurriedly came out from behind.

She held Ren Hong and was careful to be angry for Ren Hong.

Yao Qingbao and Peony Immortal Lu Qi helped Ren Zhao sit down again, and their eyes fell on Fairy Hanlian and swirled.

Ren Zhao waved his hand: "The old slave is fine, how is the eldest son? Is he sick? My family's green bag is the best at medical skills, why don't you let her take a look?"

"It's fine. It's just that I was infected with a cold a few days ago. Ren Hong waved his hand: "It's an old man, don't scare me." You are an old man in my family, I can't stand it at such an age. ”

His grandfather's cronies helped his family protect part of the family business, Ren Hong only had gratitude in his heart, how could he let this old man give him a big gift.

After Ren Zhao recognized the identity of "Ren Li", he also cried with an old face: "The eldest prince doesn't blame the old man for not being able to keep the Ren family's industry." ”

"When there was an accident in Lingyang County, when the old man went back, he saw those wolf-hearted things and plotted how to swallow our family's industry. ”

The old man burst into tears and told about the events of the year.

Most of the Ren family's industries are in Lingyang County, and there are only a few shops and some fields outside the industry.

With the accident in Lingyang County, all the businesses outside the country were divided up. This transfer of ownership is naturally indispensable to the operation of the imperial court. And many noble families felt that it was profitable, so they signaled the government to lower the price and buy these ownerless shops at the reserve price.

A cold light flashed in Ren Hong's eyes: "Well, this matter is definitely not over." But I heard that our family's Dragon King Jade was sent to the palace?"

"It was done by the emperor's grandmother. Ren Zhao gritted his teeth: "Not only that, but the eldest prince's mother also came forward to open up for the eldest prince and get a batch of our people away." ”

In addition to the property of the emperor's nurse Wang family and Ren Zhaobao, most of the properties of the Ren family are in the name of the eldest prince's mother's family.

"Don't worry, I'll only settle accounts with them in the future. By the way, I see that the girl in the green bag has a strange technique, I don't know where the Yao family came from?"

"My family used to be a family of cultivators, but by my father's generation it had declined. Because of the Ren family's property, my grandfather was persecuted. A few years ago, my father and daughter rescued my grandfather and asked him to change his name to seclusion. ”

Ren Zhao added: "The old slaves can live for so long, all because of their father and daughter's care. ”

Ren Hong stared at Yao Qingsang, his eyes flickering, as if he had found some peerless treasure.

Fairy Hanlian sighed secretly, knowing his thoughts. She secretly pinched Ren Hong and shook her head slightly.

I don't know the details now, how can I casually stuff people into Xianfu?

At this time, the old man's eyes fell on the fairy Hanlian: "Just now, the shopkeeper said that this is the lady?"

"Yes, this is clumsy, Ren Shui. ”

Yun Jia and Lu Qi stood on one side, looking at Fairy Hanlian one after another, intending to watch this good show.

However, Fairy Hanlian had long been mentally prepared to pretend to be a husband and wife, and she greeted the old man with a smile.

Ren Zhao saw that he was about to salute the fairy Han Lian again, and Han Lian hurriedly dodged away: "Old man and sit, we are young, how can we let you make a big salute?"

"Bearable, of course. If the lady can give birth to a son and a half daughter for the eldest son, let the Ren family have a succession. Don't say a big gift, that is, to be willing to live the life of the old slave. ”

Have a baby?

Fairy Hanlian blushed and glanced at Ren Hong secretly.

Ren Hong listened to Ren Zhao's words, thinking that the old man played with his grandfather when he was a child, his nose suddenly became sore, and he fell silently into memory.

Entering the world is a part of the experience that must be experienced in practice. As Ren Hong reminisced about the past, all kinds of tastes came to his heart, and he had a more understanding of the joys and sorrows of the world.

Next, Ren Hong accompanied the old man to chat about the past of the Ren family.

As he spoke, he mentioned that after the Ren family's accident, someone went over to help the Ren family prepare for the future.

"When the old slave returned to Lingyang County, he planned to guard the spirits of the old lady and the second son. But it was found that someone had already arranged it first. ”

Well, Ren Hong, he has now become the second son. Although the eldest prince is also him.

"Someone arranged? Could it be a friend of my parents, a confidant, or someone who was rescued by our family?"

"It's Miss Ji, she helped to place the sacrifice behind her. ”

"Miss Ji?" Ren Hong frowned, thinking of his original marriage.

However, what the old man was referring to was not her: "The old slave guessed that it should be the second lady's doing, she is the youngest daughter of Ji Gelao." ”

The aunt of his ex-fiancée, etc.-isn't this Zhang Qinglan's mother?

"Are you sure it's her? She helps my family prepare for the future? Does she have anything to do with our family?"

I don't seem to have a close relationship with the Ji family, right?

Ren Hong only knew that he had a life-saving grace for the Ji family, and he didn't know anything else.

"I didn't ask for details, but Miss Ji Er has an old relationship with our family. Ren Zhao: "The eldest prince may not know." When the old man was a child, he studied with Ji Ge Lao and was a childhood sweetheart with the second lady. ”

My father still knows Zhang Qinglan's mother?

Ren Hong looked confused. How come I've never heard it mentioned?

"The master and the second miss of the Ji family are childhood sweethearts, and the two families originally planned to get engaged. But the old man had no intention of officialdom, and later ......" He glanced at Ren Hong.

Ren Hong understood that it was naturally his father who found true love, and Miss Ji Er was defeated.

Unexpectedly, Dad still had such an affair back then?

Later, the second lady married into the Zhang family and became an official wife. When I went back, I heard that a wife of an official family came forward to help the Ren family deal with the aftermath, so she must be her, right?"

Ren Zhao's chatterbox opened, and when he talked about it, he began to regret it.

The love triangle back then was a lot of tossing, and then he broke off the relationship with the Ji family, and it was not until the birth of the eldest son of the Ji family that his own master came forward to protect him, and he made up for it.

The marriage with the Ji family is also to save the relationship between the two families. However, strictly speaking, if Zhang Yuan and Feng Xu did not agree, I am afraid that this marriage contract would not be Ren Hong and the daughter of the Ji family, but with Zhang Qinglan.

After thinking about it, Ren Zhao hid the entanglements in it, and only praised the kindness of the Ji family.

Ren Hong didn't have any doubts, and sighed: "I have to thank their family for this." ”

Thinking of this, Ren Hong became more close to Zhang Qinglan. This is the person who almost became his own sister. Of course, even for the sake of her mother's arrangement for her family, she had to take care of her.

Well, Li Fan must treat her well. Those small frictions between the two of them in middle age were directly eliminated and eliminated! There are also two sons who are scheduled to pass on their own disciples! In the future, Hongyuan Mirror will be given to him!

The two chatted until the evening, and seeing that the sky was dark, Ren Zhao said goodbye and left.

"Tomorrow, I will ask the people below to send the account books, and the Ren family's property will be returned truthfully, and the eldest prince will send someone to check it. As for those subordinates, if the eldest prince can see it, let them continue to do it. If you can't look at it, you can send a henchman instead. ”

Hearing this, Ren Hong felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Old man, what do you mean, are you going to care?"

"The old slave guarded this foundation for the Ren family, and in the last few years, he planned to go to the ancestral house to keep the incense for the old lady, the old man and the second son, and by the way, he prayed for the eldest son to have a son as soon as possible and inherit the incense. ”

"How can this work?" Ren Hong jumped up and hurriedly persuaded.

This old man has done his family such a big favor, how can he take care of him for the rest of his life on behalf of the Ren family.

"Yes, why should the old man let it go? These industries have always been in charge of you, and you are always required to come forward for the public...... The husband checks. Han Lian said softly: "And Miss Yao." Her father is gone, and now your grandchildren depend on each other. You go back to the vigil, what will she do?"

"The old slave is cheeky, please ask the son to take care of my granddaughter on my behalf. The old man's body and bones can't live for a few years, and she will be left alone in the Yao family in a few years. When the time comes, please take care of the son. ”

Originally, he still had the heart to let his goddaughter marry the eldest son. But when he saw that the eldest prince already had a wife, he dispelled this idea.

Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and if they meet each other's eyes, it is better to let them marry on their own than for an old man like me to mix in the middle.

"The Yao family inherited the magic arts, and her father instructed me when he left. If this girl can break through the foundation within thirty years, let her work hard to cultivate immortals. If not, let her marry early, so as not to end up alone and live alone. ”

Well, Shennong's secret technique, I'm afraid it's not the inheritance of the agricultural emperor's strategy?

Ren Hong's heart was about to move, thinking about how to pull Yao Qingbao into the Five Lotus Immortal Mansion and become his own alchemist.

Her grandfather is close to her family, and there is no other force behind her, isn't this a godsend?

Ren Hong secretly pushed the fairy Hanlian, Hanlian sighed faintly, stepped forward and said: "Even so, the old man can't leave casually." Sister Qingsao will always ask your old man to make decisions when she gets married in the future. It's getting late now, so it's better to rest in the Three Hour Hall. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow. ”

"How is this good?" Ren Zhao shook his head repeatedly.

Yao Qingnan wanted to speak and stopped, and Han Lian went over and took her hand: "Speaking of which, I feel quite cordial to my sister, as if she has been friends for many years. It's better to stay in the humble house tonight, and let's talk to each other. ”

Qing Nang pursed his lips, and then smiled: "I see that my sister is also very kind, as if I knew each other in my previous life." Grandfather, you are not in good health, and today is full of joy and sorrow, it is better to stay in the Three Seasons Hall to rest. ”
