Chapter 224 It’s you and my second uncle who are worthy of it!
Uncle Pei and Pei Yanning couldn't come to a conclusion after discussing it, but there were still some solutions.

Pei Yanning pondered for a moment, "It has rained quite a lot recently, and the damage is severe everywhere. Some places in the area of ​​our ancestral grave are still a little low..."

Flood, ancestral grave!
Uncle Pei pulled himself away from his messy thoughts, successfully captured the key words, and smiled.

"That's right. The flood is over. After we clean up our own place, we still have to repair our ancestors' house. If there is a leak, we should move out. As filial sons and grandchildren, we can't let our ancestors live uncomfortably."

Pei Yanning and Uncle Pei looked at each other and made a decision immediately.

"You go and discuss this with the tribe, and the tribe will make up the difference, and we brothers will pay for the rest."

The two began to discuss seriously, with meaningful expressions on their faces.

For generations, it was normal for people to return to their hometown to repair graves and ancestral halls after they had achieved some success. Pei Yanning's words meant that they were the ones who had to pay the most.

As for the possibility that the tribe may not agree...

That’s perfect. Since they disagree, we have to give them a reason to disagree, right?
-
Pei Yanning was delayed outside for a while. When he returned, he did not hide anything and simply told Gu Si what happened.

Gu Si, who was drinking the honey water, said: "..."

He almost spit out a mouthful of water.

"As expected of you and Second Uncle."

It’s really... filial piety!

It's okay to dig up graves just because of a disagreement.

Gu Si changed to a comfortable position and leaned back, curiously: "If you find out that your father is still alive, what are you brothers going to do?"

Regardless of other things, the old lady seems to want to die, and the two of them don’t look very harmonious.

What does Pei Yanning plan to do?
Pei Yanning didn't plan to.

Pei Yanning recognized him, because he was his father. If he didn't, haha——

He is nothing!

Pei Yanning didn't say much, but Gu Si already understood.

Lingxi took a tour of the house and felt that everything was to her liking. It was truly her home. As soon as she came out, she heard her father and fourth brother discussing whether their old man was dead or not.

Lingxi was shocked: "Grandpa?
"Dear child?"

Gu Si and Pei Yanning were stunned for a moment, and Pei Yanning came back to his senses: "Whether it is true or not, Dad doesn't know. Dad thought your grandfather was gone when he was a teenager, and the clan even held a funeral for your grandfather. Your second uncle and third uncle and I watched the coffin being buried with our own eyes."

As for Lingxi's real uncle and the real Pei Yanning at that time, she was still in the belly.

Lingxi was so shocked that she was about to burst out, but after hearing what Pei Yanning said, she instantly felt heartbroken.

Pei Yanning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Not to the point of..."

He laughed, "It was before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the country was in chaos. Many people got married and set up their own households at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Dad was thirteen at that time. Your second uncle and dad supported each other, and other uncles in the clan protected him. It was not as difficult as you think."

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, their family is weak and small, and their life is not really as peaceful as Pei Yanning said.

Can--

That depends on what you compare it with, right?
Lingxi was worried about touching upon her father's sad past, so she stopped asking and changed the subject.

"Dad, you said earlier that you wanted to go back to the factory. Are we still leaving?"

Pei Yanning nodded: "Dad's work cannot be neglected yet, I will ask for leave and come back when the time comes."

If we really need to move the grave, it will only take a day or two at most. There's no need to waste time here.

What Lingxi was worried about was not a problem at all for Pei Yanning. He even took the initiative to talk about giving Lingxi a shot of prevention.

"If your grandfather is still alive, he's probably not the kind of grandfather you think he is."

Pei Yanning thought for a moment and said, "Your grandfather is not a normal person in the conventional sense."

Lingxi Gu Si: "..." Pei Yanning's mouth twitched, it seemed that these words were not really good words.

But he felt it was quite realistic.

The old man probably suffers from emotional deficiency.

He was born weak in the area of ​​emotions, but had excellent talents in other aspects. The clan leaders and elders at that time were worried that such a young clan leader might lose control one day and become world-weary or even destroy the world, so they tried hard to make him feel the entanglement of various emotions.

It’s hard to say which one it is, family, friendship or love, so let’s try them in turn.

Fortunately, although he didn't understand much at that time, he knew that the tribe had no bad intentions, so he cooperated very well.

Love is hard to say, and he doesn’t know how to manage friendship, but family affection, that comes from blood!

This is how they, the brothers and sisters, were born...

But as children were born one after another, the old man treated them differently from other fathers.

Pei Yanning thought of that person and held his forehead with his hand: "In short, don't hold out too much hope."

Lingxi said "oh".

Pei Yanning ruffled her hair and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Dad is here. Your second uncle and I will pay attention to it."

In the evening, the family of three returned to the yard at the foot of the mountain in Gujia Village. They planned to stay there for one night and go back early the next morning.

There was also a jeep borrowed by Pei Yanning parked in the yard.

It's not a big deal that Lingxi is unconscious. He asked for leave last night when he returned to the factory. He originally planned that if Lingxi didn't wake up, he would run back and forth between home and the factory. Now that Lingxi wants to go back with him, it's just right.

As for Mingyang, he stayed for the time being and would be picked up and left after the reconstruction outside was completed.

Mingyang and Minghui were both very happy. Wherever Minghui went, there was always a little tail behind him. He felt very impressive. Mingyang had no objection. He had never lived so peacefully in all his life.

That night, Lingxi was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by a suppressed cough. She opened her eyes in confusion and saw her fourth brother tiptoeing as if he was about to get up.

Gu Si was stunned for a moment: "Did I wake you up? Brother Si, pour a glass of water, it's okay, you go to sleep first."

Gu Si suppressed the urge to cough and spoke in a gentle tone.

The moonlight was not bright, but Lingxi's eyes were good, and she was so close...

Lingxi's eyes were a little red, thinking of what she had been thinking about all day, she pulled him down and put her head against his forehead.

Gu Si was stunned for a moment, then he felt a strange energy invading his spiritual sea.

The moment Lingxi saw the condition of Gu Si's spiritual sea clearly, she wanted to cry again.

At this time, the place was gray and in a mess, with countless cracks of varying sizes. Only a few strands of weak and decadent spiritual power managed to survive in the ubiquitous gale.

Gu Si couldn't bear to see her like this, so he pulled her away a little: "This is already much better..."

Ling Xi did not give him the chance to speak again. She probed her spiritual power bit by bit and took the initiative to connect with the spiritual body deep in the spiritual sea.

Gu Si was stunned for a moment, and then he saw something echoing from the depths. Familiar yet unfamiliar silver-purple runes lit up, and a dim contract formation was gradually illuminated.

It's a companion contract!

Lingxi was shocked. No wonder...

But the next moment, she thought of something and her eyes lit up. She was about to press on with the victory, but was gently pushed out by a force, and the formation that had been lit up dimmed again.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

Lingxi subconsciously wanted to try again, but Gu Si came back to his senses and held down Lingxi, who was still unwilling to give up.

He didn't quite understand why there were things in his spiritual sea that he didn't know about, but -

His intuition told him that he couldn't let Lingxi continue.
