Su Jin was very excited when she saw the full vegetable garden. The varieties were indeed more than those in her own vegetable garden.
He said to Xi Jiudi, "If you find anything delicious that we didn't get from our vegetable garden, just bring some back. Don't bring too much, or it will go bad if you can't finish it..."
The two of them were chatting in whispers during the video call.
Following behind Xi Jiudi, Xi Yuan and his wife looked at their son speechlessly, not knowing what was so great about a vegetable patch...
Mother Xi said to Father Xi beside her: "A vegetable patch... Look how proud your son is..."
Xi Yuan snorted and complained, "Let me record it first."
Due to the outrageous actions of Su Jin and Xi Jiudi, there was a craze on the Internet about showing off vegetable fields.
After Xi Yuan finished filming the video, he discussed it with Xi for a long time before sending the video to Weibo with a string of ellipsis.
The netizens who were originally happily posting photos of their vegetable gardens suddenly felt like they had behaved like idiots. Looking back at the two people’s Weibo posts, they were all furious. This bowl of dog food was really a bit overwhelming.
Many people left comments under their Weibo posts saying "Break up quickly!"
Even the CP fans followed the steps of many netizens and staged a brief rebellion.
"I am leaving Yousu for now. Please let me go, thank you!"
'Same here!'
"I'm just a fellow traveler, begging them to break up!"
"Why torture me, a single dog..."
…
After Su Jin and Xi Jiudi were satisfied and decided on which dishes to bring and hung up the video call, they saw that netizens went from initially eating sweet food to eating lemon food.
He was laughing so hard that he couldn't help himself, and replied proudly to the most popular comment, "You can only envy what I have~".
This statement stirred up a hornet's nest, and netizens flocked to Xi Jiudi's Weibo, asking him to take care of his wife.
Xi Jiudi smiled and replied, "Sorry, I listen to her."
After showing affection for a while, he looked up at his parents and said, "I'll bring some food back tomorrow."
The Xi Yuan couple twitched their lips and rolled their eyes: "Let's go back to eat."
Xi Jiudi nodded.
After dinner, Xi Yuan called Xi Jiudi to the study.
"What happened this time?" After all, Xi Yuan was the former richest man. When Xi Jiudi suddenly came back, he realized that something must have happened that forced him to come back.
Xi Jiudi then pulled out the document Chi Qin had given him today from his briefcase and handed it to Xi Yuan: "There's a traitor in the Xi family. The file shows that this person is Xi Shaoming."
After reading the information, Xi Yuan placed it on the table and said, "Tell me what you think. If it was just Xi Shaoming, you probably wouldn't come to me."
"I wonder what father thinks of my uncle?" Xi Jiudi asked tentatively.
There was no expression on Xi Yuan's face, except that his eyes were a little vague.
He knew that Xi Jiudi was considerate of his feelings, so he spoke tactfully.
After a while, he sighed and asked, "What do you think?"
"If Xi Shaoming was just pushed out to take the blame, then the person behind it can only be my uncle Xi Kang..." Xi Jiudi paused when he said this.
Looking into Xi Yuan's eyes, he continued, "So, Dad, I need your attitude."
Xi Yuan was silent, tapping the table lightly with his fingers. After about ten minutes, he made a decision.
He stood up and closed the curtains first, then walked to the bookshelf, took down a book on a square, revealing the mechanism inside, and then pressed it.
The bookshelf shook and slowly moved a few inches to the sides, revealing a door.
Xi Yuan shouted to Xi Jiudi, "Follow me."
Xi Jiudi didn't think much about it and followed Xi Yuan in. Immediately afterwards, the bookshelf in Xi Yuan's study was restored to its original appearance.
The two of them walked down a staircase and entered a secret room that looked very old.
Inside the secret room, there were only densely packed bookshelves filled with documents.
As Xi Yuan walked in, he said to Xi Jiudi, "This secret room was built by your great-grandfather. Now that you are the head of the family, you should know something about it."
"All the important information of the Xi family is in this secret room. As long as the secret room does not collapse, even if our Xi family declines one day, there is still a possibility of making a comeback." Xi Yuan said, motioning Xi Jiudi to look at the information on the bookshelf.
The closer to the door, the more documents are packed in file bags.
The further you go in, the older the documents look, and at the innermost part are all thread-bound books used by ancient people.
"These... are the secrets of our family?" Xi Yuan was a little confused for a moment. Could it be that their family was the son of a royal relative?
Xi Yuan chuckled, "Our Xi family was once the wealthiest merchant family. It was precisely because we were so wealthy that some people became jealous and seized our property. Fortunately, our ancestors had the habit of building secret rooms to hide things, so we descendants have the opportunity to make a fortune."
"This tradition has continued to this day. I brought you in today for two reasons."
As Xi Yuan spoke, he took Xi Jiudi to the innermost bookshelf and took out a box made of gold.
He opened it to reveal what was inside: "I made this box. Every head of the Xi family would make a box to store important things."
Xi Jiudi looked at the box in Xi Yuan's hand, which was full of the aura of a nouveau riche, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Your level of appreciation is really a bit hard to understand..."
Feeling Xi Jiudi's mockery, Xi Yuan immediately exploded: "You know shit! This thing is durable and insect-proof. It's a truly good thing."
Xi Jiudi opened his mouth and was about to complain, but Xi Yuan glared at him: "Shut up! Listen to me!"
