"Dad, what are you doing? Get up!”
Qiao Weidong saw his father kneeling there and quickly squatted down to help him up.
"Why are you holding a hammer? Hurry up and kneel down to pay your respects to the ancestor.”
"Dad, are you stupid? Where did this ancestor come from?”
"Pa!"
Qiao Jianguo slapped Qiao Weidong's face and shouted,""What are you talking about? Although your father is about to die, I'm not old and muddle-headed. I know what I'm doing.”
"Forget it. It's normal for your son to be young and ignorant. You didn't tell him my last words, did you?”
"I'm sorry, ancestor. When Weidong was young, the atmosphere in the country was not quite right, so I didn't dare to tell him. Later on, when he grew up, he forgot to tell him.”
"You're the one who's skeptical, right?”
Qiao Mu said playfully.
"Yes, I am! To be honest, if it weren't for the genealogy and antiques at home, I wouldn't have believed the words you left behind. I didn't expect to see you today.”
Back then, when Qiao Mu was about to leave, his descendants had already reached the grandchild generation. After her great-grandson was born, Qiao Mu faked her death and secretly guarded his beloved wife's grave. In fact, he was not sure if his descendants would take his words seriously.
Sun Tzu, great-grandson, turtle grandson, Lai grandson, Yu grandson, Shang grandson, Yun grandson, Er grandson, and so on, from generation to generation.]
Moreover, he did not dare to leave too much property for his descendants back then because it was a chaotic time back then. The world was in turmoil, and he had a huge amount of wealth in his hands, but he did not have the ability to protect it. This would only bring disaster to his descendants.
Therefore, he only left a few antiques and dozens of pounds of gold for his descendants.
Yes! Qiao Mu had always used jin as the starting unit of measurement when it came to gold.
He even left them with the words that he would come back for them after more than a hundred years. Now, it seemed that his descendants did not take it too seriously. Otherwise, he would not have been unable to find them in his previous life.
Back then, he had left a message. Even if there was war or any other problems in the future, they had to leave their whereabouts in the agreed cave.
However, when Qiao Mu went to the cave again in her previous life, she did not discover that anyone had been there at all, and the cave's restrictions were not triggered at all.
"Alright, there's no need to explain. They don't believe that it's their own loss. I've already investigated your dead father. At least he didn't disgrace the Qiao family's reputation. He sacrificed himself for the country and died with honor. However, you are too useless. You will be a coward for the rest of your life. Why didn't you inherit any of my personality?”
"And your son, Qiao Weidong, why does he look so miserable? Why can't I see any of your heroic spirit in him? Are you sure he's your biological son?”
Qiao Mu pointed at Qiao Weidong's face.
"Ancestor, Weidong was the school hunk when he was young. He didn't know why this bastard had grown so crooked in his middle age. Not only did he grow crooked, he was also a useless thing. He did not even give birth to a son.”
Qiao Jianguo cursed in disappointment.
Qiao Weidong finally understood that this person might really be his ancestor. But why did the old ancestor scold me?
"I know about this. He only has one daughter, Qiao Yingzi, right?”
"Yes, it's alright. Qiao Yingzi's precious granddaughter is quite filial to me. Moreover, her grades are also good. She was in her third year of high school this year, so she would definitely be able to get into a good university.”
Qiao Jianguo's expression became much better when he mentioned Qiao Yingzi.
"Yes! Qiao Weidong, I know your situation very well. I'm telling you, hurry up and get married to your Xiaomeng. Or you can find someone else, but you have to give birth to a child for me as soon as possible. If the Qiao family's inheritance is broken, I'll kill you.”
"It seems that we can have a son as long as we want to. Besides, if we kill the Qiao family, won't our roots be severed?”Qiao Weidong grumbled unhappily.
"What are you talking about? Louder!"
What kind of ears did Qiao Mu have? How could she not hear Qiao Weidong's words? Hence, she put on the airs of an ancestor and cursed.
"Qiao Jianguo, if you can't give birth to a son, then you can have one. I don't believe that I can't leave a descendant behind.”
"Ancestor, don't joke around. I'm almost eighty years old, and my wife has long left. Besides, look at my body. It's already exhausted. How can I give birth?”
Qiao Jianguo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Jianguo, looks like you still don't take my words seriously. Didn't the family tree say what kind of existence I was?”
Qiao Mu shook her head.
"The family tree records that the ancestor had the ability to resurrect the dead…That's right, I'm saved. With my ancestor around, my illness is nothing.”Qiao Jianguo suddenly came back to his senses." Since our ancestor really came back alive, then the records in the family tree should be true." Then I'll definitely be saved."
"Not bad, at least you still remember what's written on the family tree. Weidong, go and settle the procedures to be discharged. I'll take over your father's treatment from now on.”Qiao Mu instructed Qiao Weidong.
