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...
Professor Chu returned to his warehouse building and took out his cell phone with a serious expression. Xiao Tan went to the yard. It was not appropriate for him to stay next to Professor Chu while he was reporting on things.
The old leader listened carefully to Professor Chu's report. There was too much information. He took out a pen and paper to write down the key words. At the end, he actually laughed.
"Chu, you have been deceived by your students."
Professor Chu didn't believe it, "Where?"
The old leader looked at the words "Eldest Young Master of the Yamazaki Family" on the paper and said with a smile, "I have some news here too. I didn't need to tell you. I thought it had nothing to do with you, but now, you may be involved!"
"Tell me about it."
"On June 5th, something happened in Country R. It wasn't a big deal, just a personal feud between families...
But the strangeness of the fire was spread out, and became a national event.
Naturally, we also received the news, and I thought it had nothing to do with us.
When I think about what you reported, hahaha, Zhou is thinking of her! She must have participated in the operation. How could she just help out a little?
Even if it's just a small favor, if her nephew is in trouble, she will go out of her way to help him, so you've been cheated!"
Professor Chu linked the two events together, and then thought about Zhou Xiang talking about meeting Zhou Yan in the dungeon, and then just glossed over the events that followed. He really avoided the important issues.
"Everyone was there at the time. Should we ask her to admit that she had taken revenge on the Fujiwara family? Wouldn't that be declaring war on the Fujiwara family? She's not stupid. I can only be deceived along with everyone else.
Zhou wants to ban the Kong family from participating in the Microsoft industry. You should reconsider this. You didn't think so before, but now you realize that the Kong family has no bottom line. It's time to punish them."
"I will talk to the senior leaders about this matter. It needs to be considered comprehensively and personal emotions cannot be brought into it."
"I know this. I'm not biased towards my students. I'm just worried that the Kong family might do something unscrupulous behind the scenes and bring bad influence to the industry."
"Yes! Your concern is reasonable. We will take your opinion into consideration."
After hanging up the phone, the old leader looked at the key words on the paper and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The darkness behind these things was even crazier than he had imagined. It was time to pay more attention to the Kong family.
He picked up the paper and went next door...
After Professor Chu hung up the phone, he called his student.
"teacher?"
"Well, Zhou Xiang, were you the one who manipulated the affairs of the eldest young master of the Yamazaki family?"
"Yes."
The student admitted it without hesitation, which made Professor Chu feel much more relieved. Just now, the old leader said that he was deceived. Although he said that he was relieving the student, he couldn't help feeling a little awkward in his heart. This was the student he wholeheartedly protected!
"Why?"
"Teacher, please wait at home. I will go over and tell you in person."
"good!"
His wife had told a big lie and now she was caught by her teacher, so Ling Ran naturally had to accompany her. If Professor Chu started to curse, he could stop her or take the blame.
At the entrance of the grain station, I met Sister Guo and her mother and daughter. They usually don't go to Zhou's house in the morning, but only go there to help at noon and in the evening.
If I go to Zhou's house to do work, I will make breakfast very early in the morning.
"Miss Zhou, Mr. Ling." Guo Jia held the old and the young and called out crisply.
"Hey! Sister Guo, the eldest of the Guojia clan, has a new boy at home, my nephew Zhou Yan. You should go and meet him and take good care of him in the future."
"OK."
"OK."
"Okay!"
The little girl, who is over six years old, is short in stature, but she is a good helper in the kitchen. All the small chores are done by her little hands.
Zhou Xiang patted her head. "Zhou Yan is about your age. You can teach him some of the games you like to play, like catching stones and throwing sandbags. He's never played those games before."
"Okay! I will take good care of my brother."
"How do you know it's your brother?"
"Those who are about my age are my younger brothers. I am the oldest."
"The little one is very smart. Okay, go help! We need to make a lot of delicious food for lunch today."
After saying goodbye to Sister Guo and her daughter, I walked into the warehouse building area and was stopped by Liu Dagang again.
"Ms. Zhou, Miss Zhou."
Zhou Xiang did not specifically correct Liu Dagang's change of words. After all, there were many people working together and he could not give them too much special treatment.
"Brother Dagang." Zhou Xiang did not change his words.
Liu Dagang hesitated for a long time before deciding to ask Miss Zhou for help. Just now, when he was following behind Xuehua and her daughter and saw Miss Zhou talking to them, he mustered up the courage to go find Miss Zhou.
"Ms. Zhou, I really like Xuehua, and I also like Jiajia and the other four sisters. But Xuehua won't let go, and I, I really have no choice."
"You want me to help you mediate?"
Liu Dagang nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes."
Zhou Xiang hesitated for a moment, "Okay! I can only test her true thoughts for you. I will never use my kindness to force her."
“Be natural, be natural. A forced melon is not sweet.”
"You know everything, why are you still pursuing me?"
"I, I haven't given up yet. Maybe Xuehua has some concerns."
"Okay, I'll ask her."
"Thank you, Miss Zhou. Go on with your work! I'm leaving now."
Xiao Tan had already opened the courtyard gate and was waiting, "Miss Zhou, Professor Chu is upstairs. You are the only one here. Mr. Ling wants to stay."
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Ling Ran, wait downstairs!"
Unable to bear the burden any longer, Ling Ran could only sit on a small stool in the yard.
Zhou Xiang knocked on the study door, pushed it open, and sat down across from the teacher. "Teacher, does the old leader have any news about Country R?"
Professor Chu's stern expression was broken by his accurate guess. "You are so smart, why did you go back to the market town?"
"Didn't the teacher come to the market town too? He wanted to relax a little."
Professor Chu paused. Yes, this student hates contact with the upper class, otherwise he would not deliberately conceal his other identity.
"Speak!"
Zhou Xiang sat up straight and said, "I told you not to report this again! I'll be in big trouble."
"Then tell me, I'll listen to the details before making a decision."
"Okay!" Zhou Xiang nodded and sorted out his words. "The eldest son of the Yamazaki family is called Yamazaki Masaru. His family saved a cultivator who was already at the end of his strength. That person left behind an ancient book on medicine.
Yamazaki Zheng has been fascinated by cultivation since then, but he only has ancient books on medicine and no methods to practice, so he came to the Dragon Kingdom with many legends to search for immortals.
There were actually clues about the formation space long ago. He went to investigate in search of immortals and accidentally fell into the formation space.
But the formation space has no exit and only allows one to enter. The skeletons inside were pulled in by the vortex just like him, but they died of starvation.
The existence of the array space was deliberately created by the immortal cultivators in the past in order to grow medicinal herbs. Although medicinal herbs can be eaten raw, not all herbs can be eaten raw.
Some of those who tried it were poisoned to death. It was a very painful death, which deterred them from doing it.
Yamazaki Masaru, however, consulted ancient texts and ate edible herbs, thus surviving.
