Chapter 1 Suspected Deceased
I urgently wanted to ask Uncle Second to understand these questions that were left in my heart. But when the words came to my mouth, I held back.
Because I think there must be huge hidden behind the Zhuo family’s ancestral home and ancestral tomb. Uncle Er has never told me these things, and obviously he has the intention to hide them. If I rashly raise the matter about the ancestral home now, I may not get the truth. There is a situation that is more beneficial to me, that is, Uncle Er doesn’t know that I already know these things about the ancestral home. So I want to continue to investigate myself and wait for the time to be ripe. I am no longer the archer who knew nothing at the time, and I can’t always let them lead the nose.
Of course, for my first question, about the two things left by Uncle Second, I think I can still find an opportunity to ask. After all, even if I don’t say it, when Yuan An and Uncle Second will know that I gave the things to Yuan An when they meet in the future.
Uncle Er saw that I didn’t answer, and kept staring blankly, so he shook his hand in front of me, “Hey, what are you thinking?”
I was startled and suddenly came to my senses, "Ah, I was thinking about this incident and accidentally got distracted." I lied casually.
The second uncle didn't doubt it either, "I just asked you, what are your plans these days? I'll arrange for Xiao Chen to take you to have fun nearby."
I shook my head, "Forget it, Uncle Second, you don't have to worry about me anymore. You have a company here, so things must be indispensable. If you should be busy, just go and do yours. I am so adult, you don't have to take care of me. I just need to go around myself."
The second uncle raised his eyebrows, "The company is yours now, and you have to manage it if you want to manage it. My eldest nephew, you are not young anymore, so you don't plan for your future."
I smiled bitterly, "Uncle Second, I just plan for my future. I can't come up and be the boss. Uncle Second, I don't know anything about your company. You should do it yourself. Then you can just take care of my meal."
The second uncle sighed, nodded, patted my shoulder, "Let's go, go for dinner."
In the next few days, Uncle Er began to take care of his own company again, and during this period he also called the pharmacy at home to ask about the situation there. In short, Uncle Er is very busy, but I am very idle.
My second uncle gave me a bank card, so my life was very comfortable. In addition to going to the hospital to see Anaduo every day, I also visited all the places I could play near Guiyang.
After about a week, my physical condition improved a lot, and good news came from Annaduo. She seemed to have some signs of awakening, which made us very excited, especially my second uncle. I have not seen him with such an ecstatic expression in many years.
Since Anaduo's condition has improved and I have recovered almost, I think it's almost time for me to go home. One day, I had breakfast in the hotel and planned to say goodbye to my second uncle. But when I got in the taxi and drove out not far away, I turned around at a bend at a roadside, and suddenly I saw a man wearing a hat.
The taxi was not slow, and I also glanced at this person's appearance in a hurry. But at this glance, I felt a strange sense of familiarity. I was sure I didn't know this person, but I just felt that I seemed to have met him somewhere, and it was an unusual meeting.
This thought flashed in my mind, but the feeling that I couldn't hold it made me feel very uncomfortable. I closed my eyes and recalled carefully the people I had seen or might have seen during this period. Suddenly, my mind lit up. I finally remembered that I had seen this person there. It was in my second uncle's office. In the photo on his wall, the person I saw just now seemed to be the old man's skin.
But it wasn't right. I suddenly wondered, because I clearly remember that I once thought Lao Zhuang from my uncle's company asked me, and he told me that this man named Lao Gepi was dead, could I be a god.
I quickly ordered the driver to stop the car, threw down the money and ran back. But when I ran back to the place just now, the person who was suspected to be a spoiled man was gone.
I searched around for a while, but still disappeared. This is a prosperous area, with people coming and going, so it is not easy to find someone, but I had no choice but to give up.
I thought about it for a while, worried that something was wrong with this matter, so I took a taxi again and went straight to Uncle Er's company. As soon as I entered Uncle Er's office, I saw him holding a pen and didn't know what was written. Uncle Er was slightly stunned when he saw me coming in, and then immediately smiled, "Oh, what wind has blown you, the leader is here to inspect the work."
I gave my second uncle a blank look and said, "You old man, don't beat me haha, I'm serious this time."
"Oh" said the second uncle put down the pen in his hand, "Speak up what's up."
I stood up and found a photo of my second uncle taking a photo with my brother on the wall. I pointed with my hand and said, "Uncle II, tell me who this person is."
The second uncle couldn't help but be stunned, "Why do you think back and ask this person you know him?"
I shook my head, "I don't know who this person is?"
Uncle Er stood up and looked at the photo, and couldn't help but sigh, "This person is a friend of mine. He also helped me a lot back then. Unfortunately, when he went out, he caught the heavy rain and his car lost control on the mountain road, fell into the valley and was washed away by the mountain torrent." It can be seen that Uncle Er is still a little sad when he thinks about this incident.
Uncle Er said the same thing as Lao Zhuang said, and I nodded gently.
The second uncle looked at me and asked strangely, "Why did you ask this?"
I told my second uncle, "When I first came to the company, you had already gone to Guangxi. I saw this photo in this office. Later, I learned from the workers that this person was dead. But just now, on the way here, I saw a person who looked very similar to the person in the photo. I thought I was a ghost, or the person in the photo was not dead."
The second uncle was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight, but this man has been dead for many years. When his car was salvaged, I went to see it. I think you must have read it wrong."
I scratched my head awkwardly, "Maybe, it seems that I'm a little too sensitive."
Uncle Er poured me a glass of water, "Actually, it's all my fault for unleading you into this kind of thing again and again. In the future, you should not participate in this kind of thing. This is not the life you should have."
I felt depressed and thought to myself, I didn’t want to, but every time I couldn’t help myself, I took a sip of water and said to my second uncle, “Uncle II, I actually came here this time to say goodbye to you. After so long, I should go back. And I have nothing to do with my health now, and my parents won’t notice it even if I go back.”
The second uncle pondered for a moment and nodded, "Yes, yes, you should really go back. Yesterday your father called me to ask about you. I said you and I were learning the medicinal products business here, which helped me a lot. Don't miss it when you go back."
I laughed, "Okay, Uncle Second, don't worry. Hey, by the way, when will you go back, you will?"
"It'll take a while," said the second uncle after thinking about it, "I have to deal with the mess here. After I go back, I will call you. I'll invite you to a big meal at that time."
"Okay, one word is certain"
At noon, my second uncle and I had a simple meal, and then, my second uncle sent someone to take me to Longdongbao Airport. Sitting on the plane, looking at the snow-white and thick clouds outside the window, recalling the experiences some time ago, it was like a dream. After the waves, my mood gradually calmed down. The feeling of comfort and calmness at this time also made people feel happy. I couldn't help but guess, will my life remain calm like this from now on, but who knows. Sometimes the storm whirlpool comes suddenly, and I can't hide at all, and I can't hide at all.
The plane landed at Tianjin Binhai International Airport. After all, it was a little closer to transfer from Tianjin, so I didn't choose to transfer to Beijing. Besides, I didn't want to disturb the Lantern Festival. He and Sisi met again after a long separation. Although I don't know if their horoscopes can be a bulb, I still don't want to be a light bulb at this time.
It was already evening when I transferred from Tianjin Airport to return home. My parents were still waiting for me to have dinner. Looking at the dishes I liked on the table, my heart was extremely warm, and my eyes suddenly became hot.
"I'll wash my hands." I turned around and rushed into the bathroom, washed my face quickly, and washed away tears in my eyes.
However, while eating, my mother with a sharp eye could soon find a scratch on my head. I quickly made up a lie and said, "In Guizhou, I have to go to the mountain with my second uncle from time to time to collect medicine. The mountains are high and dense, so there is inevitably a scratch. Mom, don't worry."
After hearing what I said, my mother calmed down a little, but she immediately said to her dad, "Old Zhuo, let me tell you, go back and talk to my second child, don't always take Xiaoran to the mountains, it's so unsafe. If you leave a scar on your face, it will be difficult to find a wife in the future."
Dad smiled, "It's nothing. There's a scar on a man's body, which makes it look like a man. When we were in the engineering team, we just went there where we were hard, but boys were not suffering a little bit." However, he nodded and said, "As for this matter, I will mention it to my second child. Don't always run around outside for nothing. The store at home doesn't care about you, your second uncle, is really such an adult, and you are so playful."
When I heard my dad say this, I wanted to defend my second uncle for a few words, but suddenly I found that I really didn't know what to say, so I had to give up.
