"There's one more thing. Wei Qingmiao has returned to Magou Village, and as for that bastard Wei Qinghao, I suspect there's someone behind them."
Hearing the long-lost name Wei Qinghao, Wei Ci thought for a while before remembering who he was.
"How did they get out?"
Wei Qingfeng stroked his chin with a meaningful smile.
"I don't know who was so smart that thought of pulling them out to get close to us. No, I should say, the key point is to get close to you, Ah Ci, you better be careful."
Wei Ci rolled her eyes at her second brother. He was no longer the second brother who only cared about his sister's safety. What he liked most now was to watch her having fun.
"Oh, that's not necessarily true. Maybe you're also their target. Don't forget, you've caused a lot of trouble for a certain small island nation, and you're still on their blacklist."
When Wei Qingfeng was in charge of foreign trade on behalf of the pharmaceutical factory and the daily chemical factory, he really screwed the other party over and made them suffer a lot, without them being able to say anything.
During that period, people who wanted to assassinate Wei Qingfeng were almost one after another. If it weren't for her, he would have been reincarnated countless times.
"Do you think I dare to tell you without checking it clearly?"
Wei Ci rolled her eyes at him and said, "Second brother, you are so annoying now."
Bang, there was a finger mark on the forehead, and Wei Ci bared his teeth at the culprit.
"No respect for elders or younger children."
Wei Ci snorted, "You've already solved it, haven't you? I don't believe that you would let them come to me and get in my way even though you knew there was a problem."
Wei Qingfeng raised his eyebrows but remained silent.
"The one who understands me is Ah Ci. My love for you is not in vain. You know me well."
What do I know about you? The properties of black sesame?
"Who's behind them?"
"Well, it's very complicated. It's not just one faction. Those rivals are all involved. Don't worry, they won't get in your way. Great-uncle is following the clues behind them and investigating upwards. He will eventually pull out the rats in the deep end."
Wei Ci nodded, lowered her head and ate seriously, and began to mourn for Wei Qingmiao in her heart.
Magou Village, ancestral hall.
Wei Qingmiao and Wei Laosan's family knelt in front of the ancestral tablets, with their heads down, not knowing what they were thinking. Circles of Wei clansmen surrounded them, whispering and pointing at the people kneeling there.
A few years passed, and the harsh climate of the borderland did not spare anyone there. The high-intensity labor and the life of hunger and cold made the once proud and arrogant Wei Qingmiao dark and thin.
The delicate eyebrows and eyes were replaced by sarcastic and harsh, and there was numbness and vague resentment in the eyes.
When she was just reborn, she had thought about how prosperous and wealthy her future would be, but why was she living an even worse life than in her previous life?
"I know why you were released."
The great-uncle stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the rows of tablets in front of him with a deep gaze. He turned around and looked at the kneeling people.
"Wei Lao San, Qingfeng let you go and didn't hold it against you. It's not that he's magnanimous, but it's because we old fools begged him that you're still alive. And now, you dare to jump out and stir up trouble. Do you really think you have enough lives to let you mess with me?"
Wei Laosan's lips turned pale and his legs were shaking badly.
"Uncle, I really didn't mean it! I didn't know Qinghao would have that kind of thought!"
"You don't know? Didn't you bring him into the medicinal herb garden? Didn't you want to help him sneak the bone-growing grass out? Wei Lao San, your father's life-saving grace can't protect you forever."
The great-uncle regretted that he should not have been soft-hearted and taken in the children of the horse bandit leader just because the leader came down the mountain to kill the Japanese and saved the elderly, weak, women and children in the village.
As expected, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. What our ancestors said is absolutely right.
For so many years, they thought they were very good to the two brothers. If their own people made the same mistake, they would be punished, but if their brothers made mistakes, they would be praised highly and let go easily. Jiandang treated them as his own brothers and even gave them two extra shares when dividing the family property.
But what about them?
What did they do? They added insult to injury after something happened to Jiandang's family, sold Wei Ci, provoked them again and again, and kept crossing their bottom line. It is said that things can only happen once or twice, but not again and again. Finally, they used up the kindness of saving the village.
"Uncle, uncle! I was wrong! I was really wrong! I only have this one son, and they said they only need a few bone-growing herbs to bring my son home! Uncle! This is my only son!"
Wei Laosan burst into tears and cried as he tried to pull his great-uncle's trouser legs.
He had a feeling that this time, they might really be abandoned.
"A few stalks of bone-growing grass? Even these few stalks of bone-growing grass are not enough to pay for the lives of your entire family!"
I don't know which spineless person who doesn't eat food leaked the news that the main ingredient of the regeneration potion, bone grass, was planted in Magou Village. My goodness, they could catch someone climbing over the wall in half an hour during their night patrol. However, in just a few days, the police stations in the county and town were all crowded. They thought they had prevented outsiders with bad intentions, but they didn't expect that they couldn't prevent their own people.
Looking at Wei Qingmiao who had been keeping his head down and silent, the great uncle said in a deep voice:
"I will have someone take you back to where you belong. The Wei family tree no longer has room for you."
Wei Qingmiao raised his head: "Great uncle, we have been released after serving our sentences. You have no right to send us back!"
The voice was hoarse and harsh, like sawing wood.
"Did I tell you where to send you? Your real grandparents are still alive, so I'll send you there. From now on, you will no longer be a member of the Wei family, and there will be no trace of you or any of their descendants in the Wei family tree."
Thinking of the founding fathers and their spouses who both died in middle age, and the grievances that Wei Ci had suffered, my great-uncle felt sad.
He was wrong. This is not the way to repay a favor, and the Jiandang family should not be asked to repay the kindness of the entire clan.
"What are real grandparents?"
Wei Qingmiao finally understood what he meant. Her heart immediately turned cold. A cold wind blew in, making her shiver all over.
"Let me tell you."
Second Grandma, leaning on a cane, was supported by Aunt Lingyu as she walked step by step into the ancestral hall.
There was no rule that women were not allowed to enter the Wei family ancestral hall, so no one stopped them.
"At the beginning, most of the labor force in the village went to join the revolution, leaving only some orphans, widows and children of a few years old. Once, the Japanese raided the village and almost wiped it out. The bandits in the mountains happened to come down the mountain and rescued the survivors.
Later, the bandits disbanded. Your mother was a bandit woman who was kidnapped and taken to the mountains. Your father died, and she didn't want to raise you brothers, thinking you would delay her finding another husband. That's when the village decided to adopt you brothers. However, everyone's family was struggling at the time, and only Jiandang's family had better conditions, and the children were young, so they decided to raise you with him. However, they didn't expect to raise two ungrateful people.
