Rebirth 90 was targeted by big bosses, I just want to plant trees

Chapter 9 Zuzu, I brought you snacks

"Sister, dad, mom"

The bucket filled with pig food was almost as tall as Yan Xuhang. Lack of nutrition since childhood made Yan Xuhang much shorter than his age. Yan Xuhang grinned and struggled to carry the pig food up the steps. When he saw Yan Yunxi and others coming back, he

Excitedly, he threw the gourd in his hand and wiped the wild vegetable leaves on his butt while running.

"Sister, you are back. You have been away these past few days and no one has worked with me, which has made me exhausted."

Although Yan Xuhang complained, he still didn't forget to take the things from Yan Yunxi's hand so that Yan Yunxi could take a rest.

"You lazy guy, you just yell at me that you're tired of doing just a little housework."

Yan Yunxi's free hand scratched the bridge of Yan Xuhang's flat nose, with a smile on his face and eyes full of endearment. The two looked at each other, and Wang Yulian next to him also laughed.

“It’s better to go home and feel comfortable!”

After being hospitalized for such a long time and experiencing Yan Guoqing's invitation again, Yan Guoqiang couldn't help but lament that the golden nest and silver nest were indeed not as good as his own doghouse.

Yan Guoqiang took off the dry pipe that he had not smoked for a long time on the wall, and gently buckled it on the stone. The impact between the iron sheet and the stone made a "clang, clang, clang" sound. After shaking out the ash from the pipe, Yan Guoqiang carefully

Opening the old newspaper in the dry tobacco bag, fearing that the tobacco inside would be spilled due to his rough movements, he picked up some blackened tobacco with his hands, then picked up a handful and stuffed it into the pipe, took a match and put it on the matchbox.

After a stroke, the match stick lit with a "swish" sound. Yan Guoqiang held the fire and lit the tobacco in the pipe, making a "rustling" burning sound. Yan Guoqiang took a deep breath, then lay down comfortably and slowly

After shaking for a long time, smoke came out of his nostrils.

"Hey, Guoqiang, are you back? You're lying down comfortably."

"Zuzu, look, I brought you snacks. These biscuits are delicious, soft and not too sweet. My colleagues all love them."

Yan Guoqiang, an honest man, has nothing to say. His younger brother's reputation has always been respected by people in the village.

Yan Zhongliang patted the cookie crumbs on his body, deliberately showing off.

Yan Zhongliang patted Yan Yunxi's hand on his arm and smiled. His white eyebrows were in an inverted figure, his long beard was trembling, and his teeth were stained by water pipes he had smoked for a lifetime.

It looks a little scary and disgusting. Yan Zhongliang is a person who loves cleanliness. The old people in the village who are 60 or 70 years old don't like to take baths very much. There is always a smell of mud mixed with dust on their bodies, but Yan Zhongliang often

The clothes are changed as they get dirty. Although the clothes are old, they are washed very clean. He used to be a fastidious person. He was a captain from all over the country. He fought against bandits and made meritorious service. But the one thing he couldn't change was his good hookah.

Yan Zhongliang put down the biscuit in his hand and stroked Yan Yunxi's wrinkled eyebrows with his hand, "Don't frown all the time. Wrinkles are not good-looking. If you have any worries, just tell Zuzu."

Yan Yunxi saw that Yan Zhongliang was teasing her deliberately.

Yan Zhongliang, who is over a hundred years old, is by far the longest-lived person in the village. Despite his age, his body is still very strong. When he wakes up in the morning, he has to do Tai Chi for a while before having hot breakfast. The younger members of the family are all working outside.

As an official, he would only come back during the holidays to have fun together, so he was the only one at home on weekdays. Yan Yunxi would come over to accompany him whenever he had something to do when he came home. Yan Zhongliang also loved this granddaughter whom he had watched grow up.

"That's your third uncle, who am I to say bad things about him?"

"What do you think of my third uncle?"

Niu Er, who runs a shop in the village, passed by the courtyard wall of Yan Guoqiang's home carrying a hoe.

He built roads in the village so that every household could open to traffic. It was indeed a great contribution. No wonder everyone praised him for his ability and being able to make such a contribution to the village. Yan Guoqiang was also proud of him.

"well"

"For me, it's too boring to be alone at home, so I went to your uncle's house next door to chat for a while and bask in the sun. I'm old and useless. My bones can't generate heat. No matter how much I wear, I still feel cold.

, I will feel warm after basking in the sun, and my legs and feet will feel better.”

"Your third uncle? Why did you suddenly mention him? Your troubles are related to him?"

"Ah, Zuzu, where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time, but I haven't found you."

"Hey, brother Niu, why did you go to the ground? Come in and sit for a while?"

"My dear granddaughter, what's going on?"

"Oh, Zuzu, a lot of things have happened recently."

"Um?"

"Oh ho ho ho, thank you my little granddaughter."

Looking at the great-grandfather who had loved her since childhood, Yan Yunxi seemed to have never heard his comments about Yan Guoqing. When she praised her third uncle in the past, he just smiled and said

When he wasn't, he just smiled.

Yan Yunxi happily hugged Yan Zhongliang's arm.

Yan Yunxi held her chin in her hands and watched Yan Zhongliang happily tasting the biscuits she brought back. She didn't know where to start looking for evidence of Yan Guoqing's illegal activities. She couldn't help but sigh as she thought about it.

"Oh, Zuzu, if you have anything else that you can't say to me, then don't lie."

"Zuzu, Zuzu?"

"No, no, there is still a large piece of land waiting to be turned over. It's not like you have a capable brother. We don't have rich relatives. We can only eat by working hard."

"Hey, Xiaoyun, you're back."

Yan Yunxi hadn't been home for a long time. She was thinking about her ancestor who was nearly 100 years old under the roof of the house. She put down her things, picked up the biscuits she brought back from the city for Yan Zhongliang, and went down to visit.

"Well, if there's anything that can't be solved, talk to Zuzu, and maybe a solution will come out."

A hoarse voice sounded from behind, it was his great-grandfather Yan Zhongliang.

"I want to hear your opinion. When I told you about my third uncle before, you never seemed to say anything good or bad about him. I'm curious, what do you think of him?"

"Ah haha, brother Niu Er, what are you talking about?"

"Zuzu..."

Yan Yunxi shouted several times in succession but no one answered. The chickens in the yard were running around looking for food. He looked around in front of and behind the house, but no one was there. Yan Yunxi was ready to leave.

"to be honest?"

"Of course!" Yan Yunxi waited quietly for him to speak.

Yan Zhongliang stroked his white beard and said slowly: "Your third uncle wants to get his hands on everything. If he wants something, he will do whatever it takes to get it."

, I could see that he was not a simple person when I played with your eldest and second uncle when I was a kid."

Yan Zhongliang was still stroking the gray beard on his chin, lost in memories.
