Big man

Chapter 25

In the morning, an ordinary Jetta car with a big plate in Sanjiang City, the capital of Jianghan Province, quietly drove into a small mountain village in Luozhou County.There is an expressway connecting Sanjiang City to Luozhou County, and the traffic along the way is very fast.After getting off the expressway in Luozhou County, there is also a high-grade road leading directly to Hongshan Village.Starting from Sanjiang City early in the morning, Xiao Fan and Xin Lin arrived at Hongshan Village in about three hours.

This is the ancestral home of Mr. Xiao.

Xiao Fan changed into a cotton and linen shirt and slacks, and still wore black cloth shoes. Xin Lin also wore a very simple casual dress, with a shoulder bag on her back. Hei Lin followed Xiao Fan's feet with leisurely steps.

The Jetta was parked under the shade of a tree not far from the entrance of the village.This is the car that Xiao Fan rented from a garage in Sanjiang City.Every time he goes out of town, Xiao Fan likes to rent a car and drive by himself, rather than let the driver deliver him.

Some things, it's better not to let outsiders know.

No one cares about these two people and a cat.Hongshan Village is slightly different from ordinary administrative villages. The villagers here have really seen the world.Who said this is the former residence of Mr. Xiao?From time to time, some high-ranking officials will come to the village to express their condolences, the roads have been repaired, and the economic development is very poor.

All of this is naturally thanks to Mr. Xiao.

Mr. Xiao is a big man who promises everything in the central government. The local leading cadres naturally have to show enough concern for Mr. Xiao's hometown.A few years ago, when Xiao Zhan was the vice-governor of Jianghan Province, he once went back to Hongshan Village, expressing his wish to see the people in his hometown live a prosperous life.

The main comrades in charge of the Luozhou City and Luozhou County teams remembered Vice Governor Xiao's words firmly, and did not dare to neglect them at all.With the promotion of Xiao Zhan's position, and the fact that the old man is in good health and prestige is in full swing, leading cadres at the provincial, city and county levels are very concerned about the construction and development of Hongshan Village, and have given a lot of policy support and financial support.

In a sense, Jianghan Province belongs to the "back garden" of the political faction led by the old Xiao family. Most of the important figures in the big faction have work experience in Jianghan Province.

Some quick-witted villagers took the opportunity to set up small leisure and entertainment venues such as farmhouses.

As far as the matter is concerned, Hongshan Village has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and indeed has the basic conditions for leisure tourism, and it is a good place for outings.What's more, there are big figures like old man Xiao in Hongshan Village, and some officials who pay more attention to these things will come to Hongshan Village from time to time to wander around and soak up the spiritual energy.Of course, most of the time it comes from microservices.

Xiao Fan has been to Hongshan Village twice, once when he was very young, he accompanied his grandfather back to his hometown to visit.At that time, the great turmoil had just ended, and the old man took up an important leadership position again. He went back to his hometown to see the folks, and worshiped the ancestors by the way.The second time was four years ago, when Xiao Fan came by himself, with Hei Lin alone, coming and going quietly without disturbing anyone.

This is the third time I have been back home.

The two walked quietly on the tidy asphalt road, and Xiao Fan would give pointers occasionally, and had a few words with Xin Lin.Xin Lin's expression was still calm, and she didn't seem to have much interest.But every time Xiao Fan talked to her, his big watery eyes would be extraordinarily bright.I don't know if Xiao Fan noticed this subtle change.

The situation of the two of them looks a little weird to outsiders.It is said that they are not lovers, and they get along day and night, inseparable.Walking side by side on such a country road, what's the situation if it's not a young couple going out for an outing?It is said that they are lovers, but they always keep a little distance, never getting too close, and there is no intimacy like ordinary lovers holding hands and fighting each other.

Of course, most people will not observe so carefully.

What does it matter to you whether they are lovers or not?

"Jia'er, look, the front is my family's ancestral house."

Before a small pond, Xiao Fan stopped and said with a smile.

This ancestral house is a typical old-age farmyard. It has a main room, a main room, a side room, and a horizontal room. It is a single-door detached house. It is about ten meters away from the neighbor next door. Behind it is a small hill with lush trees and greenery. , quite fine.

Xin Lin nodded slightly, and said, "It's a good place with the mountains behind and the water in front."

Xiao Fan just smiled and glanced at her.

Compared with Wujimen, Qimiao Palace is a typical Jianghu school, and does not study Fengshui, Kanyu, fate, hexagrams, Xin Lin's words are obviously influenced by Xiao Fan.

Having spent three years with the No.60 fourth-generation headmaster of Wujimen, Xin Lin has been fascinated by it, but she has also learned a lot about Feng Shui.Of course it's all just scratching the surface.

Xin Lin's pretty face flushed slightly, her eyes rolled, she turned her head away, and muttered softly.

"What are you looking at? After three years, it still looks neither salty nor bland... Wood!"

Xiao Fan naturally couldn't hear this muttering.

This time when she went back to her hometown with Xiao Fan, Xin Lin didn't use the disguise technique, she showed her true colors, her eyebrows were picturesque, her cheeks were delicate, pure and charming, just like a person in a picture.

"It's not just as simple as being backed by mountains and facing water... You can see the layout of the entire old house. It is square and upright, and there is no corner of the eight trigrams, which is very neat. On the dragon’s lair in the middle of the ridge, facing south and backing north, the north is high and the south is low, holding the yin and embracing the yang... This is the best geomantic omen.”

Xiao Fan explained a few more words.

In fact, Xiao Fan would explain patiently when he was with Xin Lin.

He is not a talkative person, many times he is even stingy with his words.

Xin Lin nodded slightly, blinking her big eyes, and listened very carefully.

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "I doubt it. The person who showed my great-grandfather the foundation was a very good Fengshui master."

When Xiao Fan was young, he heard his grandfather mention the things about his hometown. This ancestral house was built by Mr. Xiao's father. It is said that in the village at that time, the Xiao family was considered a "property class" and relatively wealthy.Of course, the so-called wealth in the countryside at that time was also relative. It was just a little better than ordinary people’s life. It was slightly better in good years, and they could barely be self-sufficient. In bad years, they couldn’t have enough to eat.

That's why Mr. Xiao also said that many so-called landlords in poor rural areas were actually "poor landlords" at that time.Like ordinary farmers, they sit at sunrise and rest at sunset, working tirelessly.Even so, the Xiao family is still far from being qualified as a landlord, at most it can be regarded as a well-to-do middle peasant.

Xin Lin pursed her lips and said, "At that time, your grandpa Zeng couldn't spend much money to invite the Feng Shui master to look at the homestead, right?"

Xiao Fan couldn't help laughing: "That's right, maybe it's pure luck that a blind cat meets a dead mouse."

Now the Xiao family's ancestral house is no longer inhabited, but it is well maintained, and traces of fresh paint can be clearly seen on the adobe brick walls.Xiao Fan knew that this was a collective decision made by Hongshan Village, and he was ready to repair the former residence.

The old man is still alive, so the memorial hall of the former residence must not be established. This is the regulation of the central government, and the old man will never take the lead in violating it.But this does not prevent the folks in my hometown from making similar preparations.Once the old man dies, this former residence will be built immediately.

Nowadays, the influence of celebrities cannot be underestimated. There are not a few places that rely on the former residences of celebrities to stir up tourist attractions and make a lot of money in tourism.The heads and brains of Hongshan Village are also very forward-looking.

Although the ancestral house is uninhabited, it is guarded by people.

As the two approached the ancestral house, a young man in his thirties immediately came forward to inquire, and his attitude was very kind.Although Xiao Fan Xinlin was plainly dressed and had an extraordinary bearing, she could tell at a glance that she was from the city, and she was different from ordinary rural young men and women.

Xiao Fan smiled and explained to this fellow villager that he was a cadre in Luozhou City, admired Mr. Xiao's great reputation, and brought his girlfriend to the old man's "former residence" to pay his respects.

Hearing Xiao Fan bluntly said that she was his "girlfriend", two delicate blushes appeared on Xin Lin's fair cheeks, and she did not deny it.

When the young man heard this, he immediately seemed very happy.

The "Former Residence Memorial Hall" has not yet been built, and it is a good thing that people from the city have come to pay their respects.Once this memorial hall is built, more people will come.

So the young man personally led the two of them to visit the ancestral house, and introduced them to them, appearing very enthusiastic.He also introduced himself that he was the "security officer" appointed by the village, and that he and two other young people were responsible for guarding the safety of Mr. Xiao's ancestral home.

Xiao Fan asked casually: "Brother Xiao, do you usually visit here?"

"Ah, not many for the time being, people will come to pay their respects every few days. Sometimes it is a big leader in the county or city..." The man surnamed Xiao is an honest person, and he replied truthfully: "But the former residence will be formally established in the future. After that, there will definitely be a lot of people coming.”

Xiao Fan smiled and shook his head.

This is waiting for his father to pass away!

But Xiao Fan would not care about this with this simple family man.People are not cursing Mr. Xiao, life, old age, sickness and death are natural rules.After all, the old man is already in his eighties, and his time is not far away.

The ancestral house is not big, but Xiao Fan walked around it for about twenty minutes before sincerely thanking his elder brother.After going out, he walked around the outside of the ancestral house again and nodded slightly.

This action was a little strange, and the man surnamed Xiao didn't interfere.

He has a good impression of this gentle and polite young couple.

"How about it?"

After leaving the ancestral house, Xin Lin asked in a low voice with a concerned expression.

Xiao Fan shook his head.

"The ancestral house is pretty good, no one has tampered with it."

Seeing a series of visions appearing on his grandfather, father and younger brother, Xiao Fan forcibly divination and deduced it at the risk of a huge risk of backlash.When they left, Wu Shuochang also clearly reminded that the sudden change in the secret may be due to a problem with Yin Gong Zude, and there is a vision in the southwest.

So I made a special trip back to my ancestral home for investigation.

"Let's go to the ancestral grave."
