Chapter 466 His ancestors were tomb robbers!
"Grandpa, isn't the son of an old friend you mentioned the one who just opened the door?"
Su Niannian glanced at Mr. Bai and asked.
Mr. Bai's already unhappy expression darkened even more.
It was as if he was thinking about something unhappy.
After a silence of more than ten seconds, Mr. Bai briefly told Su Niannian about the Jiang family's affairs.
It turns out that a long, long time ago, the Jiang family was a family of antiques.
To put it nicely, they are a family of antiques; to put it bluntly, they are grave diggers.
He is the legendary tomb robber.
It's not just a tomb-robbing method, it also involves things like Bagua and the Book of Changes.
Later, due to the policy reasons of that era, things changed for the Jiang family.
Until last year, when Jiang Binghuai passed away, his two sons were still very unhappy.
Jiang Binghuai's eldest son considers himself a scholar with the character of a literati. He looks down on his grandfather, his father, and even his younger brother.
A big part of the blame for the Jiang family's decline was laid at the doorstep of Jiang Binghuai's eldest son, who secretly betrayed his father.
Then he left home for many years. It was not until last year when Jiang Binghuai passed away that his eldest son, who had not been seen for a long time, reappeared.
Old Mr. Bai always thought that after Jiang Binghuai passed away, this house and the Jiang family's property would fall into the hands of Jiang Fangyuan.
But looking at the current situation, it should be Jiang Fangyuan's brother who squeezed Jiang Fangyuan out.
Now, I don’t know how Jiang Fangyuan is doing...
After listening to her grandfather's description, Su Niannian understood why her grandfather had that attitude towards that person just now.
Reporting one's own family...it's hard for Su Niannian to understand.
After listening to the story of the Jiang family, Guo Futian also came back.
Guo Futian opened the door of the driver's seat and came out, then turned and spoke to Mr. Bai.
Guo Futian looked unhappy.
"Not long after Jiang Binghuai passed away, his two sons had a big fight. Jiang Fangyuan's arm was broken by his eldest brother and he was driven out. Now he is barely making ends meet in a compound in the north of the city."
"Jiang Fangyuan has lost everything here. Under the witness of the elders of the clan, he has completely severed ties with the Jiang family."
Guo Futian's face really didn't look good.
Because when Jiang Binghuai passed away last year, he clearly stated that he wanted to leave his property to his second son Jiang Fangyuan.
Several elders in the Jiang family also knew about it, but seeing as it has turned out like this, it is obvious that Jiang Fangyuan has suffered a great injustice.
When Mr. Bai heard what Guo Futian said, he felt his head buzzing.
Mr. Bai had a good relationship with Jiang Binghuai before, so naturally he met with Jiang Fangyuan often.
In Mr. Bai's eyes, Jiang Fangyuan is a very smart person.
I really didn't expect to end up like this.
He is obviously the son of an old friend and he is familiar to me. If his hand was broken, why didn’t he come to me for help?
Mr. Bai didn't understand why this happened, as he obviously valued this young man very much.
Even though I am not always in Beijing during this period, as long as I go to Baicaotang, I will definitely get proper treatment.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Mr. Bai felt.
"Go to the slum in the north of the city." Mr. Bai ordered.
Guo Futian on the other side nodded and responded.
He sat up straight, started the car, and drove away with his foot on the accelerator.
Soon, the car stopped in the north city.
But it is still some distance away from the slum.
However, the car could no longer drive in.
There are a lot of people living in the slums in the northern part of Beijing, and the population is very dense.
Many people are resettled here, and a courtyard may be divided into several or even more than a dozen households.
There were messy things everywhere, which was completely different from the courtyard houses in the city that Su Niannian had seen before.
Because the place is small and there are many people living there, many places appear to be dirty and messy.
Mr. Bai was held by Su Niannian and stood there. Guo Futian consciously went to ask where Jiang Fangyuan lived.
"Huh? Jiang Fangyuan?"
“Never heard of it!” A man in his sixties waved his hand.
Guo Futian asked a few more people, and they all said they had never heard of this person named Jiang Fangyuan.
Guo Futian even doubted whether he had come to the wrong place.
Nowadays, if you ask if someone is here, those who know will tell you.
And it was obvious that the person Guo Futian was asking was someone who lived here.
Just when Guo Futian walked forward a few dozen meters and asked again, someone finally knew who Jiang Fangyuan was.
"Jiang Fangyuan, I think that's the name."
"But we all call him Ginger Cripple."
"We've moved here about a year ago. Go to the innermost, messiest compound. Ask over there!"
"If I remember correctly, it's in there!" An old lady who was enjoying the cool air with a palm-leaf fan said kindly to Guo Futian.
When Guo Futian found out something, he turned around and went back to tell his master.
When Mr. Bai heard what Guo Futian said, his face couldn't help but darken even more.
Mr. Bai signaled Guo Futian to go first.
He held Su Niannian's wrist and followed behind.
The alley, which was originally about two or three meters wide, seemed very crowded because there were too many debris piled up.
Two people walking side by side can't do it.
There were some places on one side where miscellaneous items were piled up and a simple awning was built on top of them.
Fortunately, it hasn’t rained in the past few days, otherwise this path would be even more difficult to walk on.
If someone comes out from the opposite direction, you should hide in a place with less clutter so that you can avoid them and pass by.
The further inside he went, the gloomier Mr. Bai's expression became.
After arriving at the large compound, Guo Futian was a little dumbfounded.
He really didn't know that there was such a place in the urban area of Beijing.
There is everything in the yard, and some places are simply separated by green and red bricks.
In the past, you could see chickens in cages outside some homes.
Raising large numbers of chickens is not allowed at this time, but each household is allowed to raise no more than three.
The smell of chicken poop and some unknown stench rushed into my nose.
Even Guo Futian found it hard to accept.
Guo Futian was worried that his master and Su Niannian would not be able to accept it, so he asked them to go out first and he would go in to find Jiang Fangyuan.
As a result, Mr. Bai looked at Su Niannian, and after seeing Su Niannian said that she was fine, he stood where he was and told Guo Futian not to waste time.
Although Su Niannian is pregnant now and more sensitive to smells, now is not the time to be pretentious.
It can be seen that my grandfather is really worried about the person named Jiang Fangyuan.
What's more, Su Niannian often drinks spiritual spring water and has good physical fitness, so she just feels that the smell is a bit unpleasant, but she doesn't feel nauseous or want to vomit.
Seeing this, Guo Futian did not waste any time and quickly asked someone.
