Chapter 123: Yuncheng Zeng Family
After walking out of the office, Ruan Ruan put the box in her pocket, asked Huo Haocheng to go to training, and walked quickly back home.
"System, where are you? Please check the situation of the Zeng family in Yuncheng." Ruan Ruan was lying on the rocking chair, calling the system she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Here!" After two breaths, the system appeared in Ruan Ruan's arms.
"Where have you been?" Ruan Ruan asked softly.
"I went to see the Viper brothers."
"Oh! How are they now?" Ruan Ruan was also very curious. So many days had passed, and she hadn't seen them go to the hospital for treatment.
"They had pus on their faces and stayed in their rooms every day. Their meals were delivered to them by the people below them."
"You're in this state now, why don't you come to see a doctor?"
"The venomous snakes are afraid that something unexpected will happen, so they are still waiting for the poisonous woman to make an antidote for them."
"Oh, has my good uncle's antidote been prepared?"
"No, she didn't make the antidote at all. She was just dragging them. She wanted them to come to you." When it came to this, the system became angry. This was the most vicious and worst person he had ever seen.
"Huh, my good uncle, you want to use them to lure me out, and then find my master through me, right? It's been so many years, why hasn't she given up on my master! This person, no matter how old he is, still can't let go of love!"
"Host, is she a vicious female supporting role? I've seen novels that describe her like this. Because she can't get the male lead, she makes things difficult for them. Finally, the male lead can't stand it anymore and comes out to kill her." Speaking of this, the system was very excited. The novel he was following was written like this, and he enjoyed reading it very much.
"You should read less novels! Forget about them. I will deal with them when they come to find me. Now, please help me check the Zeng family in Yuncheng."
Looking at the cat in her arms that jumped with excitement when talking about the plot of novels, Ruan Ruan thought of her best friend, the writer who liked to write novels. She wondered what kind of novels she was writing now?
"Okay, host, wait a moment."
"The Zeng family in Yuncheng. During the Republic of China, Zeng Yu saved the young master of a warlord by chance. Later, in order to repay Zeng Yu's kindness, the young master helped him open a small workshop because Zeng Yu was good at cooking. Later, relying on this relationship, he gained a firm foothold in Yuncheng. But then the war started and the young master followed the warlord to the battlefield. Zeng Yu helped to reinforce supplies in the rear, but then the young master went north and lost contact with him. Zeng Yu began to give alms in Yuncheng and asked people who came back from the north if they had seen the young master. Until he was demoted, decades later, there was no news. Now only he and his grandson are left in their family."
"Where are the other people in his family?" After hearing that there was only an old man and a grandson in his family, Ruan Ruan's first reaction was that it was impossible. Even if her uncle had no power at the time, there would be no problem in secretly reporting them. Moreover, they had helped the military. Logically speaking, their family should not be demoted.
"He once studied in the United States. His daughter was afraid that she would be implicated by her eldest brother and his wife, so she reported them by real name. Then, in order to protect their son and old father, his eldest brother and his wife published an advertisement to sever ties with them before investigating their family. During their escape, they died in the sea, and their bodies have not been found to this day."
In fact, their family could have escaped, but because of his sister's report, they missed the opportunity and were put under surveillance in advance. Later, they had no choice but to save the elderly and children. Seeing this, the system was very angry.
"What about his daughter?" If this person is still alive, Ruan Ruan will take action.
"Two years ago, his daughter and her family were sent to a farm in the northwest because they were accused of embezzling state interests. They couldn't stand the harsh environment there and died."
"Was the person who reported them the kid from the Zeng family?" Ruan Ruan thought about it for a long time. It couldn't be such a coincidence. The only explanation was that the kid did it.
"Yes, I think he did the right thing, host, what do you think?"
“Well, I think you’re right.”
Ruan Ruan stroked the fur of the system happily.
"Go check on them, and come back and tell me if you need anything."
"Okay, host, I'm going!" After saying that, the system flashed away. He wanted to see what the boy from the Zeng family looked like. He felt that he was very consistent with the revenge character of the male protagonist in the novels he read.
After the system left, Ruan Ruan stood up and finished the rest of the translation. She could send the two books back to Ruan's father tomorrow.
During dinner, Ruan Ruan and Huo Haocheng talked about the Zeng family. Huo Haocheng did not express any opinion because it was meaningless now.
"Let's go check out the plant tomorrow. If it's usable, then we'll need to find someone to start cleaning it."
"Okay, I'll go borrow my uncle's bike during the morning training tomorrow, and I'll go see if there are any bicycles in the city. I said before that I would buy you a bicycle, but I haven't bought it for you yet." Speaking of bicycles, Huo Haocheng felt that Ruan Ruan had been talking about it for so long, but he had never fulfilled his promise because he was too busy, and he felt sorry for her.
"Okay, let's go and buy it tomorrow. Then you can ride it to the military headquarters, and you can have more rest every day." The family compound is not far from the military headquarters. It takes more than half an hour to walk there. If Huo Haocheng rides a bike, he can get there in a few minutes, which is very convenient.
"I can just walk there, it's not far, I bought the bicycle for you to travel."
"I stay at home every day. The longest distance I walk is to the military headquarters. And whenever I go out, you follow me, so I don't have much use for a bicycle." Ruan Ruan knew that she was now a key protected person because of her master's affairs. So in order not to cause trouble for them, she would not go out unless she could. If there was anything, she would find someone to go with her. She never acted alone.
Besides, she was lazy, and all the food and daily necessities she needed were taken care of by Huo Haocheng, so she didn't have to worry about anything, so she was happy and at ease.
"Okay, then tell me when you need a car." Huo Haocheng felt that what Ruan Ruan said made sense. So he would buy it and ride it for two days, so that others would envy his wife's love for him.
"Yeah, do you think the brothers will come back?" Ruan Ruan felt that Huo Haoshen should come, but Huo Haoli was not so sure. After all, he was a working man now, and he was also at the age to get married. He didn't know whether Uncle Huo and Aunt Huo would let him go.
“Don’t worry, as long as they are not stupid, they will come.” Huo Haocheng felt that this was their one chance, as long as they seized it, the Huo family would not be bad in the future.
