Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

"Where is Tian Gui?" Yang Zhengshan asked again.

"Here, Mr. Tian was transferred here two years ago. On weekdays, he lives in Nanguan Fort outside the city!" Zhou Ren said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly. Tian Gui probably didn't have much involvement.

Zhou Ren probably wasn't involved either.

After all, it is impossible for too many people to know about collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Even if Cao Han uses the garrison office to do these things, he will try his best to hide it from everyone.

Even in order to cover it up, they would try not to involve people in the official office.

Looking at it this way, things seem much simpler.

If he wanted to control the soldiers under the garrison office, he only needed to solve the problem of Xu Wanfu.

As for other people, it's not very important.

So can he win Xu Wanfu now?

Later, Yang Zhengshan asked a lot more questions, but Zhou Ren's answers were all ambiguous. This was not because Zhou Ren was fooling Yang Zhengshan, but because Zhou Ren didn't know the secrets hidden in the dark.

He is just an official. Although he has stayed in the garrison office for more than ten years, his identity and status determine that he will not be favored by those people.

Coupled with the fact that those people deliberately maintained a semblance of stability in the garrison office, it was even more difficult for Zhou Ren to obtain useful information.

Everything Zhou Ren knew was actually his own guess.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to stay safely in the garrison office for more than ten years.

If he really knew something, those people would definitely not keep him.

After figuring this out, Yang Zhengshan let Zhou Ren go.

"Don't spread what happened today, otherwise you will only die!"

"Little one understands, little one understands!"

"You don't understand. The dead end I mentioned is not because I want to kill you, but because those people don't allow you to know too much!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Zhou Ren shuddered, "I really understand, little one!"

"Well, clean up before going out, don't let anyone notice anything strange!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Only then did Zhou Ren calm down, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, rubbed his pale cheeks, straightened his clothes again, and then bowed to leave.

After he left, Yang Zhengshan fell into deep thought.

He thought a lot and went through all the problems over and over again.

Unfortunately, he knew that there was too little information and many problems could not be solved.

Since he couldn't smooth things out, Yang Zhengshan could only let it go temporarily.

…

The next morning.

Yang Zhengshan stood in the open space in the yard with a spear in his hand. The spear was dancing, and the tip of the spear shone in the morning light, wrapping him like a halo of light.

Feel the vigorous power in your body and experience the energy bursting out of your bones and muscles.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes became brighter and brighter.

The fifth level of Houtian Realm.

In a little more than two years since he came to this world, he has transformed a broken body into a strong and energetic body. As his strength increases, his inner sense of accomplishment becomes stronger.

Cultivation is hard, tiring and boring, but Yang Zhengshan likes to practice very much, especially when he can feel that he is constantly improving, he is more and more willing to immerse himself in practice.

This is like upgrading in a game. Watching your experience increase little by little, your level constantly improving, surpassing players one after another, and defeating monsters one after another, the attraction will naturally become stronger and stronger.

If you stagnate and don't feel the improvement in your cultivation for months, even years, or more than ten years, then your original drive and ambition will slowly be worn away.

Therefore, the prime time for a warrior to practice is from fifteen to thirty-five years old.

Because these twenty years are the most powerful and energetic time, as long as the qualifications are not too bad and as long as you are willing to work hard and practice unremittingly, you will always make progress.

But after the age of thirty-five, the body's functions begin to gradually decline, and the mentality will also change. When you are over forty, people call you grandpa every day. This person's heart will grow old before he gets old.

Yang Zhengshan has always felt that mentality is very important in martial arts practice.

Anyway, he doesn't feel old, he feels like he is still a young man.

"Grandpa~~"

Just when Yang Zhengshan was thinking that people can grow old but their hearts cannot grow old, a clear voice sounded outside the main courtyard door.

Yes, I am not old, but you call me old.

"Qingwan! Come here quickly!"

Although he felt a little depressed, he still had a kind smile on his face.

Yang Qingwan is three years old. The chubby little girl has two horns on her head and is wearing a cyan silk flower jacket. She looks particularly cute.

The little girl ran over, hugged Yang Zhengshan's leg, and said, "Grandpa, I want to go out and play!"

"Go play!" Yang Zhengshan picked her up and asked, "Why do you want to go out to play?"

The Yang family was originally a farmer, and Yang Mingcheng and Wang were ordinary people before. Even though the Yang family is now rich, their essence has not changed.

Therefore, they still maintain the previous attitude towards the upbringing of their children, which is simply to raise them freely.

And Yang Zhengshan doesn't want to raise his granddaughter to the kind of eldest lady who stays behind the scenes. His attitude towards his children is to grow up healthily and happily. In the process of growing up, he should study when he should study and practice martial arts when he should. Practice martial arts.

Therefore, Yang Qingwan has always been an active child. When she was in Yinghe Fort, she played wildly in the Tunbao all day long. Now that she has come to Anyuan Prefecture City, in the first few days, she thought the yard was very big and fun. , but after a few days, she felt a little bored and wanted to go out to play.

"It's so boring at home, it should be very lively outside! Grandpa, can you take me out to play!" Yang Qingwan hugged Yang Zhengshan's neck and said coquettishly and softly.

Yang Zhengshan had told Wang and the others before that they should try not to go out recently, so Wang and the others had stayed at home these days.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and felt that there was nothing wrong with taking this girl out for a walk.

But just when he was about to agree, Wu Hai suddenly came over and said, "Master!"

"Well, what's the matter?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Someone just sent a greeting card!" Wu Hai handed a greeting card to Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan held the little girl with one hand, took the invitation and took a look at it.

"Jing'an Liang Family Liang Rong!"

If he remembered correctly, this Liang Rong should be the eldest brother of Mr. Liang, the head of the Liang family in Jingan.

Speaking of which, the Yang family and the Liang family are still in-laws. If the Liang family had not separated Mr. Liang, their in-law relationship would still be very close.

It's a pity that Mr. Liang has been separated for a long time, but when Yang Minghao and Mr. Liang got married, the Liang family in Jing'an also gave Ms. Liang a dowry.

Yang Zhengshan was not sure how much the dowry was. A woman's dowry was her own property. Logically speaking, her husband's family could not ask for a woman's dowry.

Of course, some unreliable husbands' families will take a woman's dowry and spend it on them, but that's another story.

Anyway, here it is very shameful for a man to spend a woman’s dowry.

Yang Zhengshan naturally wouldn't look at his daughter-in-law's dowry, and he didn't know exactly how much Liang's dowry was, but he knew it shouldn't be too much.

When Liang followed Yang Minghao to Yinghe Fort, he didn't bring much with him.

Mr. Liang definitely cannot afford much dowry for his daughter, but the Liang family is extremely wealthy. Even if the family is separated, Liang is still the daughter of the Liang family.

It is really heartless to give such a small dowry.

Yang Zhengshan didn't care about Liang's dowry, nor how much dowry the Liang family in Jingan gave Liang. He had cared about this from the beginning. He didn't even think about getting involved with the Jing'an Liang family.

Therefore, from beginning to end, the communication between the Yang family and the Liang family was limited to Mr. Liang.

Moreover, Yang Zhengshan estimated that the Liang family in Jing'an did not like their Yang family at the beginning.

Otherwise, the Liang family in Jingan would not have come to see Yang Zhengshan until now.

"Where is he?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Still outside the door!" Wu Hai replied.

"Let's go to the front yard first, I'll change my clothes and go there!"

They all came to visit them on their own initiative, and Yang Zhengshan couldn't explain why he didn't see them.

"yes!"

Wu Hai retreated, and Yang Zhengshan looked at the pouting little girl in his arms. The girl obviously saw that her good grandfather would not take her out to play today.

"Tomorrow, grandpa will definitely take you out to play tomorrow!"

Yang Zhengshan pinched the little girl's face with a smile.

"Really!" The little girl's eyes lit up instantly.

"Of course it's true!"

Yang Zhengshan comforted the little girl and handed the little girl to Chunhua to take away.

I went back to the bedroom, washed up, and changed into a clean and neat wide-sleeved Cheng Ziyi.

When he arrived at the main hall in the front yard, Wu Hai had already prepared tea.

When Liang Rong saw Yang Zhengshan coming in, he quickly stood up and bowed his hands and said, "Liang Rong has met Mr. Yang!"

Yang Zhengshan smiled and returned the greeting: "Brother Liang, you're welcome. We are in-laws, so we don't need so many courtesy!"

Liang Rong is about forty years old, older than Yang Zhengshan, with a handsome appearance and elegant temperament. If you only look at his appearance, you would never think that he is a businessman, but more like a scholar.

Hearing what Yang Zhengshan said, Liang Rong showed a relaxed look on his face. He was very worried before coming here, fearing that Yang Zhengshan would not recognize them as relatives.

After all, he was the one who kicked Third Master Liang out of the house back then. Although he didn't think he had done anything wrong, things are different now. Third Master Liang has climbed onto a high branch, and the key is a high branch that is very useful to them.

So he had to come to the door and wanted to get this relative together.

The two of them were polite, and Liang Rong got a gift list.

"It stands to reason that I should have come to see Mr. Yang a long time ago, but there have been some problems with my family's business during this period. I really can't spare the time. Please forgive me, Mr. Yang!"

"This is a small courtesy, please accept it, Mr. Yang!"

With that said, he handed the gift list to Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan opened the gift list and narrowed his eyes slightly.

What a grand gesture!

Gifts usually include gold and silver jewelry, pens, ink, paper, inkstones, fabrics, etc., but Liang Rong's gift actually included three stores.

And all of them are shops in Jing'an Fucheng.

Jing'an Fucheng is a much more prosperous city than Anyuanzhou City.

The shops there are definitely not cheap.

In addition to the store, the gift list also includes various items such as gold and silver jewelry, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, calligraphy and painting antiques, furs and fabrics, etc.

Looking at this gift list, Yang Zhengshan had only one thought, that is, is the Liang family in Jing'an so wealthy?

Yang Zhengshan has received a lot of gifts. Zhou Lan has given them to him several times, and the Lu family has given him several holiday gifts every year. However, the gifts he has received before are not as good as Liang Mao's.

Even what Zhou Lan gave him was far inferior.

After Yang Zhengshan read the gift list, he suddenly felt a strange emotion in his heart.

Is this a test for cadres?

Such a big gift, what is the Liang family doing?

Just because the two families are related, there is no need to give such an expensive gift, right?
