The old mother of the Tian family is the younger sister of the old man of the Feng family. Although Feng Yu has never met her, she is the only one left among the relatives of the Feng family who is still alive. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, but in the final analysis, distant relatives are more affectionate.
.
Tian's old mother was full of energy, with a rosy complexion and white hair draped behind her shoulders. She didn't look like an octogenarian at all.
Tian Yilong was a well-known filial son. When he saw his old mother greeting her from afar, he immediately went up to help her.
Feng Yu first bowed respectfully to the old lady, and then called out: "How is your health, old aunt? I am Feng Yu."
The old lady smiled brightly, grabbed Feng Yu's hand, looked up and down, she was very fond of it.
"The old lady is in very good health. It won't be a problem to live another ten or eight years. It's an eye-opener for the Feng family to have such a grandson. Come on, let's eat first and sit down to chat."
Feng Yu has never met this old aunt, but the family love that is thicker than water is like breaking bones and connecting tendons. Feng Yu feels an inexplicable closeness to this old aunt. Many of her actions are like those of the old lady of the Feng family.
The shadow, or in other words, the clank and spirit of the first two generations of the Feng family, that kind of charm and temperament, is something that outsiders can never learn from.
The Tian family's house is not too big. It has two small courtyards at the front and back. It is simple and plain. This is very common in Taiyuan City. Even Mrs. Tian is surrounded by children from distant relatives of the Tian family. They are fleeing from wars and seeking a stable place.
In the Tian family, when Mrs. Tian saw that the girl was pretty and clean, she stayed with her as a companion and said she would find a good marriage for the girl.
The girl next to Mrs. Tian is called Zhizhi. She is about 18 or 19 years old. She is quite handsome. She is just a bit unfamiliar with Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian. Apart from Zhizhi, there are no other servants in the Tian family. Most of them are taken care of by Tian Yilong's wife.
As for housework, my two children are studying abroad and rarely come back on weekdays. The family is doing pretty well.
Feng Yu met Aunt Tian again and said that the meal would be ready soon. Aunt Tian seemed to be a good wife and mother, which was Tian Yilong's blessing.
Seeing that the entire Tian family is peaceful, who would have known that Tian Yilong was in the south crawler trade?
Naturally, Feng Yu didn't want such a family to suffer bad luck for eight lifetimes. Mrs. Tian came from the Feng family, and she knew many rules and regulations better than anyone else. If it wasn't for a reason, she definitely wouldn't want to seek help from the Feng family.
Aunt Tian brought all the food to the table in a short time, and set a full table. Shanxi people are hospitable and provide thoughtful hospitality. The Tian family cannot survive today without Mrs. Tian, so all matters of the Tian family are subject to Mrs. Tian's direction, regardless of the simplicity of the Tian family.
Simple, in fact, he has a lot of family background, but the family motto says: "Be low-key, don't show your wealth, be kind to others, and be a gentleman even if you are a thief."
This family motto is hung in the Tian family hall, and the signature is Mrs. Tian’s name.
Mrs. Tian asked Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian to eat more at the dinner table. She couldn't help but miss them and talked about some old things.
"I remember when I came out of the Feng family, your grandfather was your age. The Feng family's business was extraordinary. He went to work with him at the age of ten. The world was in chaos at that time and life was not easy. I don't know how many people were behind it.
Just wait and see the Feng family’s joke, your grandpa is a strong man, no matter how difficult it is, it will be over."
What Mrs. Tian said was so sad, Feng Yu still felt the difficulties his grandfather went through back then. It was indeed a difficult time.
Seeing that Mrs. Tian was a little sad, no one in the Tian family dared to speak out. Mrs. Tian added: "In the early years, when I heard that the Feng family was broken up, I felt bad when I saw that such a big lintel was about to disappear.
After all, it was the Feng family who gave birth to me and raised me. I burned incense and worshiped Buddha every day, until I heard someone mention your appearance, you are the hope of the Feng family."
Feng Yurang said a little embarrassed, thinking that this old lady looked kind, but the methods she used were also powerful. She must have a purpose for saying this, otherwise, why would she say this to a junior who is two generations behind her out of thin air?
Mrs. Tian suddenly stopped talking and called Feng Yu to eat, "Look, the old woman talks a lot as she gets older. You guys eat first, eat first."
When Zhang Xiuxian saw Mrs. Tian's aura, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move her chopsticks. The old lady is a capable person, and there is a reason why the Tian family has come to this day.
No one said much during the meal, probably because of family training. The whole meal was eaten in silence, and I felt as if I had done something wrong and felt uncomfortable all over.
After the meal, Feng Yu and Zhang Xiuxian were arranged in a south room on the side. Aunt Tian brought some tea and snacks to the two of them. She seemed so preoccupied that she didn't even notice that the water spilled out when she poured it.
After Aunt Tian left, Zhang Xiuxian took a deep breath, drank all the tea in the cup, and said: "Damn, Feng Yu, the rules of the Tian family are so damn strict, I almost lost my heart from eating that meal."
If you jump out, this is not a meal, you are clearly in jail, and you will not be allowed to speak out even if you are in jail."
"The rules of a wealthy family are like this. Don't show your teeth when smiling, and don't make a sound when eating. This is because you are ignorant. In the Forbidden City, when the emperor holds a family banquet, the prince and his concubine dare to let go of their voices while eating."
"No, no, this is too frustrating. I can't bear it."
Zhang Xiuxian said, grabbing something on the table with his hands, and opened his mouth, as if to relieve his hatred.
"Hey, Feng Yu, I feel like something is wrong. I don't think this old lady from the Tian family is a light-hearted person. What are her plans? You have to be careful. This kind of relative you only see once in a lifetime is bound to be in trouble.
you."
"Ya'er, what do you mean by relatives you only see once in a lifetime? Can't I come back again?"
Zhang Xiuxian rolled his eyes and said: "You really come here? You're full."
Feng Yu thought for a while, and it seemed that what Zhang Xiuxian said made sense, but Feng Yu didn't say it out loud. After all, Mrs. Tian's surname was Feng, and she was from their family.
Zhang Xiuxian added: "Feng Yu, tell me, what does it mean that Tian Yilong took us to the jade shop? Can such a strange thing really happen in the world? What is it that he is digging up his past life and not daring to tell anyone? Is it possible?
Is it a dog?”
Feng Yu smiled and said, "I hope it can be a dog and nothing else."
Zhang Xiuxian laughed loudly after hearing this, "This piece of shit is definitely not a good thing."
Just as he was talking, the old lady of the Tian family and Tian Yilong walked in. Zhang Xiuxian hurriedly closed his mouth and sat back on the chair.
"Hey, what are you talking about? You two are happy for me, the old lady."
"Nothing, nothing." Feng Yu chuckled to ease the embarrassment.
I saw the two of them sitting down first after entering the room. Mrs. Tian had a serious face, and Tian Yilong next to him was not much better. Feng Yu saw the situation and thought that he was probably going to get down to business.
"Feng Yu, I wanted to ask your father to come this time. Since you are here, it doesn't matter. Young people need experience. This is a good thing. I think your father also means the same. The Tian family is really conflicting with something right now.
, I know the meaning of the red wax letter better than you do, and I don’t want to trouble the Feng family if I can’t use it.”
Feng Yu said politely: "Old aunt, what you said is beyond words. We are all members of our own family. It is not troublesome to say anything. If you have anything to say, please don't hide it."
Mrs. Tian nodded slightly and then spoke.
"I believe your Uncle Tian has told you something. Some time ago, he went to the Zhao family. The Zhao family is a prosperous family in the local area. Their ancestors and grandchildren have been rich for several generations. I heard that Zhao Shuisheng dreamed about his own family at night.
In my previous life, I dug up something in my backyard. Your Uncle Tian was a kind man and he took it to the door as soon as he was called. Unknown to him, he got into trouble because of it."
"Old aunt, what did Uncle Tian do?"
Mrs. Tian sighed, "He shouldn't have looked at the contents of the bag."
"What's in the bag?" Zhang Xiuxian asked curiously.
Mrs. Tian shook her head, "The secret must not be leaked. The fewer people who know about it, the better. Besides, it will not be good for you, and it will also offend you."
Feng Yu secretly thought to himself, what is so powerful that just hearing about it will bring bad luck?
"Your Uncle Tian saw what was in the bag and made a big mistake. I made some predictions, old lady, and figured out that the thing would find a new home. By chance, your Uncle Tian bumped into it."
Zhang Xiuxian tilted his head and asked: "Old aunt, what is that thing you are talking about? Is it the thing in the bag?"
"What's in that bag is just a drop in the bucket."
Feng Yu was shocked and looked at Mrs. Tian in surprise. If this was just a drop in the bucket, there might be something more to come.
Mrs. Tian continued: "Now in the backyard of the Zhao family, an ancient tomb has been dug. No one dares to go down into it. My Tian family has been a south crawler for generations, but after all, your uncle Tian collided with the things inside. If he
There will definitely be a bloody disaster, and outsiders are unwilling to help, and they don't have the ability. If you want to help my Tian family survive this disaster, you must be someone from the Feng family. "
Feng Yu already understood what Mrs. Tian meant. An ancient tomb was dug out in the Zhao family's backyard. Feng Yu needed to go explore it. There was something Feng Yu didn't understand, so what should he do there?
"Old aunt, I don't know something. What should I do down here?"
Zhang Xiuxian also had the same question and asked: "Yes, what are we going to do? Fight upside down?"
