Chapter 1068: Dead Leaves Against Delicate Flowers
Oh, right, right...
Chu Yu and Xing Jiashan did as they were told as they got into the indoor elevator.
"Dad, Mingxing, you two stay home, the five of us can go.
When grandma comes back, please let her know so she doesn't have to worry."
Shi Yang was foresighted.
It was speculated that Shi Rong was probably out on a mission, so he returned to his room early to change clothes and pack his bag, and was almost done packing now.
"Also, Dad, An Yan has already gone home to tell my uncle and aunt that you have returned home.
He, He Xi and He Dai were all my grandfather's right-hand men who were personally chosen for me. They are also good brothers who grew up with me and Rong'er.
The Qu family will treat you to dinner tonight. Remember to bring Miao Miao with you.
In addition, Yan'er said that from today on, her Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV will be used as a special travel car for you and Miaomiao.
The driver is Huo Yong. His driving skills are extremely experienced and steady, so Rong'er and I feel at ease.
As for my baby...
I know she has been fond of the Karlmann King for a long time. I will ask someone to come forward as soon as possible to help customize a top-performance car for her. "
Shi Yong was overwhelmed by his nagging.
"Got it! Go find a reliable private jet and chase your beloved big baby. I'm your dad back home."
"Hahaha~"
Shen Mingxing was really amused by Shi Yong's sarcastic tone this time and laughed out loud.
Shi Yang's handsome face flushed.
"Oh, Dad... I just can't leave Rong'er. I feel so sad if I can't see her for a day."
Shi Yong couldn't do anything to him, so he raised a powerful hand and patted Shi Yang's broad shoulders.
"Okay son, Dad understands your feelings.
Go after her boldly. If your mother knew about this, she would be happy that you were able to marry Rong'er.
Don’t make me angry anymore. I’m still looking forward to having more cute grandchildren.
When you come back this time, I will teach you a decent set of techniques. You can come to my room quietly every day to learn.
After all, Huo Jiuzhou is about to acquire thunder magic, and the Huo family is keeping a close eye on Rong'er.
I can't let my son be outdone by others, right?"
When Shi Yang heard this, he thought, “That’s great!”
He excitedly hugged Shi Yong with his long, tight and well-shaped arms, and cheered.
"Really, Dad? Thank you, Dad! You're so kind~"
Shi Yong couldn't help but twitch his speechless mouth.
Who does this child resemble? He looks like an old naughty boy who just can’t grow up…
“Really, go ahead!
Don't tell anyone else about this except for Rong'er and Mingxing for the time being, remember?
It’s not too late to talk about it after you finish your studies.”
Shi Yang and Shen Mingxing both nodded.
"I remember that."
3 points.
Huo Jiuzhou, Shi Yang and four others set off from the airport outside the Ying family's old residence.
Each person also brought two more little paper figures of their own.
"Qiuqiu, Juanjuan, stop eating now, we're almost there."
Along the way, Xing Jiashan was like an old nanny. She not only had to feed them water and snacks, but also had to clean up the leftovers they had eaten.
He was afraid that these delicate kids would run to Shi Rong to complain.
"Meimei, Shuangxi, wake up...why are you still sleeping?"
The two female paper figures rubbed their sleepy eyes.
"Brother Jiashan, this is our first time on a plane. We were so excited when we first got on, and now we're tired..."
Xing Jiashan smiled.
"There will be many more opportunities like this in the future. Wake up, we should go now."
Meimei: “Okay~”
We arrived safely at the only urban village on the outskirts of the northern city: Qilanwu.
It's already 5pm.
It is early autumn in the north city now. At dusk, the weather is clear and cool, with golden wind and jade dew.
Qilanwu was built by the Huo family 20 years ago at great expense for the purpose of housing ancestral halls and tombs.
It is also a famous paradise in this city!
The scenery here is beautiful, with clear waters, flowing greenery, and vibrant colors. It is breathtakingly beautiful.
Although outsiders are not allowed to settle here, pavilions and towers are set up at appropriate intervals for passers-by to appreciate the picturesque scenery of thousands of green mountains.
"there."
Huo Jiuzhou and his friends are very familiar with this place. They have been here countless times since they were young.
He then took Shi Yang, who was dazed and looking around, and headed straight to the Huo family cemetery with ease.
The little woman was nowhere to be found, and Huo Jiuzhou looked at her coldly and lonely.
He then glanced at a desolate village about 30 kilometers away from here.
Just as next to every blessed place, there is always a group of dilapidated buildings that are an eyesore and contrast with it from a distance.
Dead leaves set off the delicate flowers.
Even if you are in the Huo family's territory, you cannot avoid similar incidents happening here.
"The people in this village haven't moved out yet? They're really just holdouts."
As soon as Chu Yu complained, he received an immediate response from Xing Jiashan.
"Yes, this matter should have been handled by people from Huo Yiyan's department.
I don’t know how she did it, but it still hasn’t been done yet.”
Song Qianchen shook his head and sighed.
"It's so dilapidated inside, I really don't know what those people are still holding on to.
It’s not like the Huo family didn’t give them ‘relocation fees’ at first, what kind of people are they…”
Shi Yang was full of doubts as he followed the four people walking at a brisk pace.
“But this place is deserted and there is no grass growing.
The dozen or so remaining dilapidated tile houses in the village were even more shabby and were about to collapse if the wind blew.
Is there really anyone living in such a shabby house these days?"
Chu Yu nodded.
“Yes, but they are mostly helpless old people and children.
Either their children went out to work and have never been heard from since; or they were deceived by poor families and abandoned here.
They are just a bunch of vulnerable groups living in modern society. You can't bear to use force against them.
If you want to reason with them, they have already stopped trusting anyone after being abandoned by their families for many years.
Therefore, ever since the Huo family decided to build the mausoleum here, there has been a stalemate, and until today, there has been no solution.
I guess Huo Yiyan probably has the will but not the ability."
"Axin, stop speaking for her!"
Song Qianchen waved his hand angrily.
"How could she be so willing but unable to do anything? I could have just pushed it away with two shovels. It's just that she's not capable enough!"
After hearing this, Chu Yu's eyelids fluttered.
"Qian Chen, which ear of yours heard me speaking for her?
I don’t!
Don't let Shi Rong hear what you said, or she will misunderstand me."
Shi Yang was speechless.
"No, what did she misunderstand you about? Do you think she's Huo Wanwan? She's so unreasonable...
"Xiao Er is not that kind of person."
Chu Yu thought about it and agreed.
"Ouch~ This road is so hard to walk on, full of potholes..."
Shi Yang carefully avoided the debris under his feet.
"Of course! This is in stark contrast to the interior of the Huo family's cemetery.
One is full of flowers, the other is a cold kiln with broken tiles.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed there was such a place in the North City. The villages in the East City are so beautiful."
