These two men were none other than Shen Yubei and his personal bodyguard who were originally in the south of the Yangtze River.
The last time Gao Hanjin came back from the north and told him about Zhong Ziqi, Shen Yubei paid attention to it. He asked his confidant Hongying to come to the north to investigate, and finally got a result that made him half happy and half worried. He had an intuition that there must be something he was looking forward to here, so he handed over the matter at hand to his retired father, and then made a trip himself to verify the final result.
So what is he trying to verify... what
This started many years ago.
Their Shen family's family business is inherited from their ancestors, and they have been doing well all the time. They are also a famous family in the south. Their family is a single lineage, even when there are the most children, there is only one kid, and the rest are all brothers. It's not surprising to see his father, he is the only kid in the family, his father is a dedicated person, and he has only married his mother in this life. Eminem gave birth to two children, one is him and one... is his brother.
His older brother is more than ten years older than him. When he was just a toddler, his elder brother had already gone to school and started to get in touch with the outside world. He went out privately, so he always bought a few biographies on the way to and from school and read them with relish.
Because when he was young, he followed his elder brother most of the time. The elder brother was longer than the elder brother, and the elder brother would hug him very gently, make him happy, and whisper with him. In his eyes, his elder brother was like a second Like his father Eminem, he gave him meticulous care.
It's just that he didn't expect that brother who always had a gentle face and a gentle personality would be so angry one day.
It was not long after his grandfather passed away, his father took over the business, earlier his father learned to do business from his grandfather, but not everyone believed his father, it was a low point for their family at that time, the business The matter made my father very busy, and he came home very late every day, and sometimes he didn't come home for several days.
The whole family is worried. I just didn't expect that the father who hadn't returned for a few days suddenly brought back a shocking news. Their family is going to be married to a family of the same family.
This is not what surprised them the most. They have heard of that family, and they are well matched, but the problem lies in this. This family has five children. The eldest is a boy who has already married, and the second is a brother. Also became a home.
The third child is a boy, but he is a man who likes to spend time and drink. The city is so big, and bad rumors can often be heard. However, because he is the most beloved child of the family master, many things are not true, because there are also Many people said that these two elder brothers were afraid that the family property would be inherited by this younger brother, so they poured dirty water on him vigorously and made rumors about him, so that their father would be disappointed with him. Anyway, there are many opinions, and outsiders also see it in a cloud, only knowing that this person has a bad reputation.
And the fourth and fifth children are two children who have just learned how to run around, so it is self-evident who will marry who will marry.
They don't know what their father thinks, they only know that his father's decision cannot be changed. At that time, they didn't know that there was a problem with their family's business, and their father was already devastated, but he didn't tell them.
The elder brother was furious for the first time, and he got angry a lot, and vowed not to marry to the death. His father locked him up in a hurry. Shen Yubei still remembered that his brother was locked in the room, he didn't think about food and tea, his face was pale every day, as if he was hopeless in life, and he often lay on the crack of the door to see his brother. Talk to my brother, but my brother will either ignore him, or he will babble that he doesn't want to marry the man who has never met and has a bad reputation. He wants to find someone who treats him sincerely and knows that he loves him like in the biography man.
At that time, he was already sensible. Seeing his brother sad and sad, he also felt distressed. One night, while the housekeeper was not paying attention, he stole the key he carried with him and opened the door that locked his brother. He felt happy to see the light on his brother's haggard face again.
My brother held him in his arms for a long time that night, saying that he is the only man in the family who will carry on the family line. In the future, he must be stable, take care of the family business, and be filial to his parents. He should do his filial piety for him, and tell his father, Ah Mu, that he is sorry for them. , but he didn't want to ruin his life in the hands of such a person.
That night, my brother left without only him knowing. After leaving this home, even this city, he didn't know where he went, and he never saw him again, and he missed him very much.
When his father found out, he was furious and beat him severely. The reason for the beating was not that the marriage would be ruined because his elder brother left and no one would marry him in his place. It was not that his business problems could not be solved, but What will happen to the brother who doesn't leave the door because he doesn't leave the door? This is unimaginable.
My father mobilized all the people around him to look for him, but there was no trace. Eminem blamed his father every day, and his father seemed to have aged a lot. At that time, he didn't understand why his father forced his brother to do things he didn't want to do. It wasn't until he took over the family business that he realized how much helplessness there was.
Until today, he has been asking himself a question, that is, do you regret letting go of your brother
In fact, he didn't want to admit it, he had already regretted it subconsciously, and he would never see each other again after seventeen years, and maybe even separated from each other. But he believes that his elder brother will definitely not regret it, because his children are so old, and according to his elder brother's personality, he will not marry if he doesn't like it.
When he saw Zhong Ziqi for the first time, all he had in his mind was - like, it's so similar!
Combined with Hongying's investigation, his mother's surname is also Shen, but the name is different, but he is sure that this is his brother's child, because his brother has a small mole on the root of his ear, which is not obvious, and most people don't know it. He grew up in front of his brother, so he knows best. Now he also found that mole on the base of Zhong Ziqi's ear. It is undoubtedly too coincidental. If there are too many coincidences, it will no longer be a coincidence.
This is his brother's child, his nominal nephew.

"Why do you think he came?" Zhao Zheng'an was puzzled.
"Why do you think so much? You can't figure it out. Hurry up and feed Big Black and Little Hei, and the chickens are all driven into the coop." Zhong Ziqi couldn't stand his nagging, and hurriedly dismissed it. .
"Look at you...I analyze and analyze, but you are not willing to listen." Zhao Zhengan protested dissatisfied, why is his wife so ignorant of danger.
"Hurry up! Come back to eat after finishing, or I won't bring yours." Zhong Ziqi said angrily.
"Don't, don't, I'll go right away, wait for me." Zhao Zheng'an rushed out, his head was bleeding and he couldn't help but eat the rice cooked by his wife.
Zhong Ziqi looked at his lively back with a smile on the corner of his mouth. This kind of Zhao Zhengan has the breath of life and can make people rely on and feel safe. He feels very good. There is no need to change his life now. He is very happy and fulfilled .
"Click." The sound of the pot hitting the ground suddenly sounded.
Zhong Ziqi stood up abruptly and ran outside. Zhao Zheng'an was holding the wooden fence with one hand and his forehead with the other, with the food bowl turned upside down under his feet.
This posture was all too familiar to Zhong Ziqi, which meant that Zhao Zhengan had another headache.
"How are you?" Zhong Ziqi asked worriedly while supporting him.
Zhao Zhengan closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he couldn't see any signs: "It's okay, don't worry, it's much better."
"Just lie to me. Didn't you say that you don't have seizures anymore?" Zhong Ziqi was worried about the headache, so she took the opportunity to ask him: "Does the headache hurt? Do you want to rest for a while?"
Zhao Zheng'an didn't know if he was annoyed by the questioning or if he was worried that he was worried, so he told him that he was much better and the frequency of seizures had dropped. Now it seems that this must be Zhao Zhengan's lie, he was so tolerant and pretended that he almost deceived him.
"It's okay, what did I lie to you for? It just happened suddenly today. You see, I can't control it, and I can't control it so that it doesn't hurt, can I? But it only hurt for a while, and now it doesn't hurt, don't believe it I'll give you a few jumps." After speaking, Zhao Zhengan really planned to jump a few times.
Zhong Ziqi stopped him: "I don't believe it? Let's go to the house to rest for a while. I'll do it here."
"Okay." Zhao Zheng'an didn't refuse. In fact, his headache hasn't passed. Now he has no strength. He really needs to rest and wait for recovery.
Just like what Zhong Ziqi said, he actually lied to him. His headache didn't get relieved, but instead of being worried by Zhong Ziqi, it would be better not to say it, and it passed after a while. It was definitely an accident just now, he was about to put the food bowl on the chicken coop, when he was hit by sudden pain and dizziness, he didn't notice that the food bowl fell to the ground. Attracted Zhong Ziqi.
Zhong Ziqi didn't know what Zhao Zhengan was thinking, so he helped Zhao Zhengan to sit on the chair: "You rest first, I'll be right back."
Zhong Ziqi went into the chicken coop and drove the chickens into the coop to block them, and put the food bowls on the coop. Then I went into the kitchen, washed my hands carefully, and served the food on the table. A bowl of rice was placed in front of Zhao Zhengan. After thinking about it, I picked up a large chopstick dish and put it in the bowl.
"Do you want to feed me?"
Zhong Ziqi thought about it seriously.
"Do you really want to? I still have the strength to eat. Don't make a fuss. Eat quickly. Today's meat is delicious. I love it. Next time, you can order more."
Zhong Ziqi replied subconsciously: "Okay." Then she was speechless at his clumsy change of subject.
After eating, Zhong Ziqi boiled the bath water, and the two took a bath in order. Went to bed early.
Shuri, "Pretty Delicious" is open for business as usual.
Shen Yubei and his servant appeared in the shop again. Also match the tofu nao and fritters ordered yesterday. Today's Shen Yubei obviously really came here to eat, except for the occasional glance at Zhong Ziqi, the other eyes are normal.
Shen Yubei didn't taste the food in the small shop carefully yesterday because he was excited. It is really good to eat again today, the taste is very unique, no wonder it is so popular.
Hongying ate deep-fried dough sticks expressionlessly, averaging one piece per minute. Shen Yubei didn't eat them carefully yesterday, but he was delicious. Most of the food on the table went down to his belly yesterday. He knew best about this thing How delicious.
Shen Yubei glanced at him: "Did the Shen family treat you badly?"
Hongying "... back to the master... no."
"Then why are you acting like you haven't eaten in a few lifetimes?"
Hong Ying immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks, and wanted to stand up to salute, but was stopped by Shen Yubei: "Okay, let's eat yours."
This time, Hongying slowed down to eat.
Besides, Zhao Zhengan's originally good mood was ruined by the two of them again, but fortunately, this person didn't do anything excessive today, so he barely hated him so much, but...he still wouldn't let his guard down.
