In her previous life, her eldest brother died early, her second sister went blind due to illness, her third brother became autistic, and she herself lived a life of poverty and hardship, scavenging...
Zhou Xiang hummed a song as she walked back to the house. Ling Ran touched the top of her head and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?"
"Are you worried that she'll be pissed off to death? She's really as scary as a ghost when she's angry. What a waste of that beautiful body."
Zhou Xiang shook his head. "That shouldn't be the case! Although it's a bit weird, I wouldn't be so angry about it. However, this ancient family is different. Everyone has a good appearance. Kong Haoran and Kong Youran are both good-looking. Maybe when they choose their marriage partners, they choose like an emperor through a beauty pageant. However, I absolutely cannot let Big Brother know about this confrontation with Kong Xianxian."
Ling Ran nodded, "Everything here is confidential and must not be disclosed."
Not long after, Kong Xianxian returned, followed by Kong Haoran, who was holding a wooden box in his hand.
Kong Xianxian waved her hand, and Kong Haoran opened the wooden box. Inside were rows of gold bars. "Here are 200 gold bars, each weighing about a pound. I'll charge you 50 yuan per gram. Is that enough?"
Zhou Xiang gave her a thumbs up and said, "People with deep pockets speak differently. That's enough."
Ling Ran wanted to take the wooden box, but Kong Haoran refused to give it to him, saying, "Give it to Miss Zhou and let her count it in person."
Are you trying to make fun of her? How heavy is 200 pounds? Has she become brainless after seeing gold? Okay, since you want to test me, I'll let you see for yourself.
Zhou Xiang stretched out a hand, and Kong Haoran placed the wooden box heavily on her hand. Zhou Xiang's hand did not sink at all, and she took the wooden box steadily. There were 50 pieces on the top layer. With her other hand, she opened the three layers below, counted them, and turned around to hand it to Ling Ran behind her.
Kong Xianxian and Kong Haoran's eyes narrowed slightly. Is Zhou Xiang also a martial artist?
Zhou Xiang turned around and saw that the aunt and nephew had not yet recovered from their shock. He sneered, "I'm in a good mood and don't care about Mr. Kong Haoran's temptation. Haha, next time, I'll let you taste the powder too."
Kong Hao then took two steps back. He was really scared. The head of the family hadn't moved at all for half a day. Even with the head of the family's strength, he couldn't withstand Zhou Xiang's powder, so he was even less able to do so.
Zhou Xiang turned and went back into the house. When he came out, he had a paper bag in his hand. "Just take it directly. Next time, the price will definitely go up."
Kong Xianxian took the paper bag and left quickly. The owner of the house must have been waiting anxiously.
Zhou Xiang waved to Ling Ran. Ling Ran followed his wife into the house holding the box. Zhou Xiang immediately closed the door.
Zhou Xiang took the box from him and put it into the ring, "Ling Ran, I suspect they may also have storage rings or something like that, otherwise how could they take out 200 kilograms of gold so quickly?
You should be careful when using the ring, but you can't give in just because you are careful. Now you are facing it head-on, and giving in will only make these self-righteous big family members more arrogant.
Prepare some of Yamazaki Zheng's medicinal powder and put it in your ring. I think the muscle softening powder is very good. The head of the Kong family was even knocked out by the medicine."
As he spoke, two sealed bottles and two small medicine bottles appeared in Zhou Xiang's hands. "Take these and pack some medicine powder and antidote. Keep them safe. Anyone who dares to use the medicine powder on you must return it.
As for the well water, if it doesn't work to cure the other person's medicine, use this antidote. This antidote is physical, not mental. These two bottles contain the medicine diluted five times, so keep them for later use."
Ling Ran returned the essence-nourishing liquid to Zhou Xiang, "Isn't it unsafe to keep it from me?"
Zhou Xiang returned the message, "Life safety is the most important thing. Even though you stick to me every day, there are always unexpected events. I'm not afraid of this diluted Peiyuan Liquid. As long as the space is not exposed, I think with the Kong family's inheritance, they should have Peiyuan Pills or Peiyuan Liquid."
Ling Ran accepted the essence-nourishing liquid, packed a few portions of the muscle-softening powder and antidote, and returned them to his wife. "Wife, since the muscle-softening powder works so well, ask Yamazaki Masa to make more."
"good!"
After Kong Qianchen took the antidote, his body immediately regained consciousness. He stood up and moved around a few times. The powder Zhou Xiang had used this time was really powerful. This was his most embarrassing experience!
"Cousin."
"Head of the family."
"What's going on with Zhou Xiang's uncle?"
Kong Xianxian shook her head. "I don't know. She's mentioned her eldest uncle twice already. The first time was when she guessed my father's intention. She said her youngest uncle died of diarrhea when he was only a few years old. From her tone, she seemed to be putting the blame on us."
"Died of diarrhea? Aside from my uncle, no one else was assigned to this Huaixian route."
"Her uncle is in Guan County, Jiangxi Province, with Jiang Xing'an's in-laws."
Kong Qianchen frowned, "After the family is settled, you should carefully investigate who took that route in the first place. My uncle was only following the calamity to resolve the family's calamity, and the people who followed him were all willing. If Zhou Xiang's uncle was one of ours who did it, then that would go against my uncle's original intention. By the way, haven't you figured out the meaning of my uncle's last words?"
Kong Xianxian pursed her lips and remained silent.
Kong Qianchen knew his cousin best. Silence didn't mean he hadn't solved the problem. "Your vitality has suddenly weakened a lot. What's the reason?"
Kong Xianxian's face turned pale. "Cousin, please give me two years. If I still can't survive after we get the spiritual energy, I will tell you directly."
Kong Qianchen's eyes narrowed slightly. This cousin was his uncle's posthumous child and had inherited the same talent for divination as his uncle. However, divination was a profession that consumed one's vitality.
His cousin had always been cold and indifferent to him, rarely calling him cousin, but always addressing him as the head of the family. Now that she was addressing him as cousin, he had no choice but to go along with it.
"Okay! I'll give you two years."
In the afternoon, Professor Chu leisurely wandered around the village with his students and was not in a hurry to find the head of the Kong family. Kong Qianchen, who was waiting for neither Professor Chu nor Captain Tang, became a little anxious. However, as the head of a large family, his calmness and composure calmed his anxious heart.
When it comes to endurance, he is the best.
However, after two days of waiting for Professor Chu and the others to take the initiative, his composure and endurance were somewhat fading. He didn't have time to waste! Even if he didn't need to look after the family migration during the journey, he would still be needed to take charge after arriving at the destination.
When Zhou Xiang saw Kong Qianchen appear in front of his residence, he knew that his analysis was correct and that the head of the Kong family could not afford to waste time.
"Oh! It seems that the Kong family master's physical condition is very poor! It took him two days to recover after getting the antidote. Did he not dare to use it?"
Kong Qianchen smiled evilly, "Whether it's good or not, you need to experience it yourself to know."
Is this really the head of a family? Could he be from a duck shop?
"My powder also lacks opportunities for personal experience. I wonder if some people have the courage to try it."
Kong Qianchen didn't want to experience the feeling of being unable to move for a long time again. "Okay, I won't beat around the bush with you. I'm here to see Professor Chu."
Zhou Xiang pointed to the courtyard next to him and said, "Has Master Kong's memory declined? That courtyard is where my teacher lives."
Kong Qianchen ignored Zhou Xiang's sharp tongue and turned to walk into the yard next to him.
