With a creaky sound, the gate was pushed open, and what came into view was a huge pomegranate tree with some red fruits hanging on it.

It’s probably because the tree is too old, there are only a few fruits, but each one is much bigger than an adult man’s fist.

Nan Jingyou walked around this old tree that was at least several hundred years old, with a look of amazement on his face.

"Cousin, do you want to eat pomegranates? I'll pick one for you." Lin Yanzhi looked up at the fruits on the treetops, with the words "I want to eat" written all over his face.

Nan Jingyou's mouth twitched, feeling a little helpless.

"Cousin Yanzhi, let's not do that. The tree is so old. It would be bad if it is damaged. If you want to eat it, we can go outside and buy some later."

This pomegranate tree is half antique, and it belongs to the courtyard of the ancestor's favorite concubine. He is afraid that if he eats it, the ancestor will come to settle the score with him tonight.

"Okay." Lin Yanzhi awkwardly withdrew his leg that was about to step forward, feeling extremely regretful.

After touring the yard, the three of them went into the room and took a look around.

The layout of the room was a little different from what Nan Jingyou had imagined. It was very empty, and apart from some large pieces of furniture, there was actually nothing valuable inside.

Come to think of it, all the precious items must have been collected by the Lin family.

Besides, the master doesn't live here, so if the servants take things from the room and sell them, the master may not even know.

After touring the entire house, the three of them went straight back to the hall.

Seeing his son coming back and feeling a little tired himself, Lin Ruohua suggested going back to the hotel to rest.

Uncle Xu stood at the door and watched the vehicle going away, his eyes full of reluctance. He shook his head and closed the door, then returned to the house alone.

Several luxury cars drove towards the five-star hotel and soon arrived at the hotel entrance.

The doorman looked at so many luxury cars with a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he regained his composure in an instant. After all, he had met many wealthy people of all kinds in this hotel.

The guests were welcomed into the hotel politely and courteously, without even having to carry their luggage.

Several bodyguards followed their master, each carrying a suitcase in one hand, looking very imposing.

The doorman didn't even dare to look at it for a few more seconds.

Just as Nan Jingyou and his companions had checked in, they saw a large group of people coming in.

Several of them wore masks and hats, covering themselves tightly.

Nan Jingyou just took a casual glance and then looked away. Led by the doorman, the group took the elevator to the floor where the hotel's presidential suite and luxury business suite were located.

What he didn't see was that a man wearing a mask was looking in surprise in the direction he left.

"Brother Cheng, what are you looking at? It's time for us to check in."

"Nothing, I think I saw someone I know."

……

Lin Ruohua and Yun Mo stayed in the presidential suite, and the rest of the people stayed in the luxurious business suites on the same floor.

As soon as he entered the room, Nan Jingyou threw himself onto the big bed, and at the same time, a comfortable sigh came out of his throat.

You Che's room was still next to his this time, but after everyone else returned to their rooms, he went into Nan Jingyou's room.

When he saw the person lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread, his eyes were filled with smiles.

Nan Jingyou had a good sleep. After waking up, he had dinner with everyone in the hotel. Lin Yanzhi suggested taking a walk around the ancient town.

No one objected to this decision.

Lin Ruohua had difficulty walking, and he was already familiar with the ancient town, so in the end only a few young people traveled with him.

Under the night sky, the ancient town looks poetic, picturesque and dreamy under the reflection of lights.

Because the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming and the ancient town is a tourist destination, there are still many people here even at night.

Five handsome men with outstanding looks were walking on the streets of the ancient town, and passers-by would stop and look at them a few more times.

Fortunately, no one recognized Nan Jingyou for the time being, and the group of people were all safe and sound.

Lin Yanzhi is a foodie. Whenever he comes across something delicious, he wants to try a few bites.

Along the way, he was like a little hamster, never stopping talking. Even when his elder brother got angry, he pretended not to see it and continued to do as he pleased.

His behavior made Nan Jingyou greedy, and he also ate a lot.

The consequence of doing this was that he ate too much.

As soon as he returned to the hotel, he sat on the sofa, holding his stomach and groaning.

You Che sighed helplessly, "Master, you didn't listen. I advised you to eat less."

Although he complained, his words and expression were full of concern and heartache.

"Master, eat this and you will feel better soon." He took out a white sugar pill-like object from somewhere.

Nan Jingyou was no longer surprised that he could create objects out of thin air.

He reached out to take the "sugar pill" and looked at it suspiciously, "Is this a pill from your planet?"

"Yes." You Che replied without changing his expression.

Nan Jingyou believed that You Che would not harm him, so he didn't think much about it and swallowed the white pill in one gulp.

It's sweet, melts in your mouth and is quite delicious.

He thought it would take a while to take effect, but unexpectedly, within two minutes, the discomfort in his body disappeared.

Not only that, he also felt refreshed and full of strength.

The effect is so good that it is no exaggeration to say that it is an elixir.

Nan Jingyou's eyes sparkled. He looked at You Che and asked, "Can this medicine cure other diseases?"

If that were possible, wouldn't he never have to worry about himself and his family getting sick or injured again?

You Che looked at him with deep eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Master, I do have pills for other diseases, but you can't let me do business at a loss."

Okay, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly.

Nan Jingyou waved his hand and said, "Whatever you want, as long as I have it, I can give it to you."

"Well, if you need it next time, I'll give it to you. But for every pill, you have to promise me one thing unconditionally." The man's words sounded fair, but there was a big trap in it.

Nan Jingyou was a little hesitant, but then he thought that this pill might not be useful, and You Che couldn't want to take his life.

Thinking of this, he readily agreed.

However, one day in the future, when he uses You Che's pills again, he will pay a price that will make him question his life.

……

The next day, as planned, after finishing breakfast early in the restaurant, the group went straight to the ancestral home to prepare for the worship.

When they arrived at the ancestral home, Uncle Xu had already prepared incense, firecrackers, tributes and other things, and the family tree was also solemnly placed in the ancestral hall.

After Nan Jingyou is recorded in the family tree, this book carrying the names of several generations will be locked again in the secret compartment of the ancestor's study.

Naturally, the key is only owned by the head of the family through the generations.

When entering the ancestral hall, Nan Jingyou felt an indescribable emotion lingering in his chest.

Especially when he saw the densely packed tablets enshrined in the ancestral hall, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling.

Not out of fear, of course, but out of shock and awe.

So this is the foundation of a huge family?
