Chapter 79 Changes in Shao Jing'er's Hometown

Chapter 79: The changes in Shao Jinger’s hometown

In one night, the matter was completely settled. Shi Xuanxuan and Shao Jinger accompanied Mo Haoran to Shao Jinger's hometown, and Ling Bing continued to help Rui Jingting prepare for the follow-up work of the event. In fact, Ling Bing said that now Ling Bing is holding a few big advertisers' orders in his hand and is in negotiations. Even if Mo Haoran agrees, Ling Bing may not be able to go there.

Shi Xuanxuan, who is almost like a wild crane, has this kind of time, but she has specialized in art. Shi Xuanxuan still has some vision for ancient cultural relics, and it is a good choice for Mo Haoran to bring her with her.

Shao Jinger's hometown is not far from Jiangcheng City, but because he is not far from the city, he is a mountain road with a water, so the itinerary on the road has been much longer.

Although Mo Haoran has good driving skills, he carries two girls, and Mo Haoran doesn't want to show his driving skills in such a place. Once the two girls are dizzy, they will even vomit a car, but it will be unbeautiful.

Mo Haoran drove the car steadily, and took this opportunity to carefully inquire about the situation in Shao Jinger's hometown.

"Shao Jing'er, where in your hometown do you have antiques or something?" Mo Haoran looked sideways and asked Shao Jing'er, who was sitting in the passenger seat, guiding the road.

"It should be!" Shao Jinger thought for a moment, "In fact, it's not just my family, but many people in our village used to be officials or businessmen, but they have never appeared after liberation!"

"Is your village the place called Nanqiao Town?" Shi Xuanxuan, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly asked.

"Yes, do you know our village?" Shao Jing'er asked in a daze.

"I heard from my dad that it was because in the late Qing Dynasty, many people lived in seclusion because of avoiding disaster, but they never knew where they were!" Shi Xuanxuan smiled.

"If you don't know, it doesn't mean that others don't know. In fact, people from Nanqiao Town have already gone out now. However, many people secretly take their own things out for capital replacement, but few people know that many households in Nanqiao Town have many of the kind of cultural relics from their homes that originate from their homes."

"Didn't anyone want to take this opportunity to make a fortune from the village?" Mo Haoran was also a little suspicious. He was a person worth millions at least, but he was still so greedy and wanted to come to Shao Jinger's hometown to buy some antiques, calligraphy and paintings and other things, and get some capital to use.

Mo Haoran didn't believe that Nanqiao Town was all such kind people, and would keep this kind of thing without being moved.

Shao Jinger smiled slightly, "Maybe some such people will appear now. Anyway, a few years ago, no one would have such an idea!"

"Why?" Mo Haoran was stunned, as if there was still a story behind it.

"It's very simple. At that time, a retired old man from the Republic of China was still alive. Although the old man was so old that he couldn't even speak clearly, he still had authority. If someone dared to touch the family's fortune in Nanqiao Town, he would definitely be sentenced to death!" Shao Jinger explained.

"Extreme punishment?" Mo Haoran was shocked. There was still such a thing in this era, but thinking about this old man should have come here with his father. It is understandable that he has great power, but this almost lynching method can still exist in this era. It has to be said that it is a very unexpected thing.

"In fact, Nanqiao Town belongs to the same clan!" Shao Jinger smiled bitterly, "In other words, the residents of our Nanqiao Town are basically surnamed Shao, and that old man is our old patriarch. Who dares not listen? There is no way for the country to use the family's lynching. It is the nominal village chief and the same clan of the old patriarch's nephew and grandchildren. How dare he not listen to his uncle?"

"What about now?" Mo Haoran asked.

"It's hard to say now. Our village chief really wants to use the things accumulated in his hands to completely renovate Nanqiao Town and accumulate some credit for him!" Shao Jing'er said this and showed a faint sneer sneer on her face.

Mo Haoran was silent for a while, staring at the increasingly rugged road ahead, and passed a bumpy mountain road. A small stream appeared on the side of the road, and the road conditions improved a little, Mo Haoran then asked, "Shao Jing'er, what is your relationship with the old patriarch of your Nanqiao Town?"

"That's my grandfather!" Shao Jing'er said it directly without hiding it.

However, this result made Mo Haoran and Shi Xuanxuan stunned at the same time. Mo Haoran was better. When he heard Shao Jinger's narration, Mo Haoran guessed the relationship between Shao Jinger and the old patriarch, but he didn't expect it to be so close.

Shi Xuanxuan got to know her again. Although she could directly live in the same room with her old man in the late Qing Dynasty, Shi Xuanxuan knew better than anyone else. Shao Jinger's vision and background were definitely not simple, and she could definitely not be explained clearly by a little model.

Seeing the reaction of the two people, Shao Jinger suddenly smiled and said, "After my grandfather passed away, there was no one in my family. My parents died early. I have no assets except the old house in our family! Otherwise, I would not have been able to get into a model!"

"Shao Jing'er, don't worry. Since you have said this, I think the things in your family are definitely not vulgar. If that's the case, you can directly choose some investments based on your family's things. I think even if you don't want to be a model, it's enough for you to live a generous life!" Mo Haoran suddenly said.

"I just want to deal with the matter here thoroughly. From now on, I don't want to come to this hometown that is not worth nostalgic!" Shao Jinger showed a melancholy expression on her face, and she sighed slightly and said, "My parents left their hometown since they gave birth to me and never came back. When I was in my teens, what I waited for was the ashes of the two of them. Grandpa was over 100 years old, so how could he withstand this blow? He was originally a child in his old age, and his physical condition gradually deteriorated from that time!"

The car drove to a stone bridge, and the road ahead was no longer accessible. Mo Haoran and his friends had to get out of the car. Shao Jinger then said, "This is Nanqiao Town. Although it is a town, there are only a hundred families, all of our clan families. All walks of life have concentrated here to form such a small family-like gathering place!"

"It seems that your Shao family was quite brilliant before!" Mo Haoran smiled.

Shao Jinger also smiled, "My grandfather's father seems to be a second-rank magistrate or something, and I'm not very clear about the specifics!"

Mo Haoran locked the car, and the three of them walked along the stone bridge and asked, "Shao Jing'er is also a descendant of the official. By the way, where is your home?"

"It's the first street at the entrance of the village, huh!" Shao Jinger was just talking, and found that there seemed to be a lot of people gathering at the intersection.

Mo Haoran also frowned and looked at Shao Jinger's gaze, "Where are those people's places is your home?"

"Yes, but there is no one in my house anymore. Why are there still people gathering at my door?" Shao Jinger said, and his pace also accelerated a lot.

Just as Mo Haoran wanted to speed up his pace, he found that Shi Xuanxuan behind him seemed to be a little difficult to walk. The uneven stone road made Shi Xuanxuan, wearing high-heeled sandals, seem to be step by step. Mo Haoran reached out and pulled Shi Xuanxuan, held most of the force with his arm, and quickly took Shi Xuanxuan across this stone bridge, and then quietly let it go.

At this time, Shao Jinger had already arrived at the doorstep.

"What are you doing here?" Shao Jing'er's voice became very sharp, almost roaring.

Mo Haoran followed him and when he saw the door open, Mo Haoran felt a slump, as if he was in trouble again, and quickly turned around and said, "Xuanxuan, come in, don't be too far away from me!"

"I know," although Shi Xuanxuan has learned some Tai Chi and other boxing skills from her father, she has indeed seen this scene for the first time. There are villages with obvious clan nature that are prone to conflicts. Shi Xuanxuan is very familiar with this kind of culture, so she also understands what Mo Haoran means, to prevent any dangers from happening during conflicts.

Shi Xuanxuan pulled Mo Haoran's clothes and followed Mo Haoran into the gate of Shao Jinger's house. At this time, Shao Jinger was already standing on the steps in front of the tall door, "Friends, who can tell me what happened to my house? Who opened the door of my house!"

Mo Haoran's eyes suddenly fell on the ground in front of the door. A large copper lock as big as a palm had been twisted and deformed and broken into several sections, but the stubble seemed to have just been twisted by someone with a tool.

"Shao Jing'er, stop asking, people should be still inside!" Mo Haoran's eyes were also cold, and he did not expect that such an accident would occur.

"Let's go in and take a look," Shao Jing'er snorted and was the first to take the lead in walking inside.

There are only two yards in total. The first floor is a patio, and the sides should be the so-called places where the gatekeepers and servants live, but after liberation, they can only be used as granaries and storage. The second floor yard is the place where people live.

Shao Jinger did not stop in the first floor yard and ran to the second floor yard quickly. As soon as Shao Jinger entered the yard, he shouted loudly, "Whatever you are doing, get out for your aunt!"

Mo Haoran and Shi Xuanxuan also stood at the door of the second floor yard and looked into the yard inside.

There were two cabinets in the yard, and two strong men were moving outwards with a large cabinet. When they heard Shao Jinger's shouting, they were so scared that they let go of their hands and pierced the cabinet directly to the ground.

When the two of them saw that it was Shao Jing'er, they quickly stood up, turned around and looked into the main room, and then said, "Auntie, this is what my grandfather told us to do!"

At this moment, an old man in his sixties walked out with two more people. When he saw Shao Jing'er, his face changed, but then he squeezed out a false smile, "Sister Shao Jing'er is back!"

"Shao Tong, what do you want to do?" Shao Jing'er snorted, "I don't want to be a girl like you! You don't deserve to call me Brother Clan!"

"Since that's the case, I'll tell the truth. Now the village is going to undergo a major renovation, rebuilding the stone bridge at the entrance of the village and the road leading to the city. None of them will be required to release a few preserved items. There is no one in your house and you can't contact you, so I have to take away the things first and plan to tell you when you come back!" Shao Tong explained it without blushing.

Mo Haoran couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The family had several items. There were at least 100 households in this village. Even if it was worthless, it would not be a problem to change it to more than 100,000 yuan. I'm afraid it wouldn't cost so much money to build roads and bridges. Thinking of this, Mo Haoran couldn't help laughing, "This is your wrong thing. Even if you want to collect preservation items, you have never seen someone breaking the door lock of someone else's house and breaking the door. This can be the crime of breaking into a private house and robbing theft!"

"Who are you?" Shao Tong only noticed Mo Haoran and Shi Xuanxuan standing at the door.

"Is it important who we are? The key is that you have violated the law now!" Mo Haoran said with a smile.

"Don't let me do any law!" Shao Tong snorted and turned around and asked, "Shao Jing'er, why do you want this outsider to come to the village? Don't you know that outsiders are not allowed to enter the village?"

Shao Jing'er sneered a few times. A guy in a suit and ties was always behind Shao Tong. "Shao Tong, I have lived in the village for the rest of my life and have never seen this person. The person behind you is not from our village, right?"

"I brought him to help select items!" Shao Tong's face turned red and he explained anxiously.

"Who gave him the right to enter my yard? Even if you are the patriarch of the Shao family now, you have no right to bring outsiders to my yard, right?" Shao Jing'er sneered, "Shao Tong, if you don't explain this matter clearly, you can wait for the punishment within the clan!"

Mo Haoran looked coldly at the tribe members who broke into Shao Jinger's family, especially when his eyes swept over the guy in suit and tie, Mo Haoran couldn't help but feel moved. It seemed that this guy was also here to collect antiques, and if that was the case, he would have to tighten it. However, since this guy broke into other people's houses to collect things so unscrupulously, he wanted to be greedy for some advantage, so it would be easier to deal with it.
