After two years of marriage, the officer husband can’t stand it any longer.

Gu Beinian looked at the information in his hand, frowned and made a swallowing motion...

"Lu Nanchen, were your ancestors a tomb robber?"

Lu Nanchen spread his hands and expressed that he had no comment: "I don't know, I vaguely heard my grandpa mention it. This happened hundreds of years ago."

Gu Beinian obviously didn't believe what he said, pointing to the dense text on the information and said: "No, you see the family history records above are very detailed, and the latest record was last year, how could you not be clear, you are Aren’t you kidding me?”

Faced with his wife's doubts, Lu Nanchen seemed dumbfounded: "I don't know much, do you really want to know...?"

Speaking of this, Lu Nanchen suddenly became more cautious, prolonging his tone, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

When Gu Beinian saw this, he immediately became energetic and nodded eagerly: "This story is so exciting, it's a tomb robbery, it's so cool."

Lu Nanchen sighed softly and said, "Have you ever heard of the Queen Mother of the West?"

Gu Beinian: "A fairy tale?"

"This is an ordinary story in itself, but it has been deified by later generations. In the early years, people visited the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West in order to study immortality. Later, a plant called Zijunyi appeared."

"Zi Junyi?" Gu Beinian repeated Lu Nanchen's words.

He continued: "Zijunyi can cure all things. Ziyijuncao will not rot for thousands of years. People who take it can prolong life and preserve their appearance. They can live for hundreds of years. It has a strong ability to repair damage. Its growth environment is harsh, and intruders have There is no way in or out, and they have not been seen for thousands of years, just like the present world, greedy..., Huo, Gu, Bai, Si, Qi, Wu, collectively known as Yiyue Liutang, the Huo family is the leader, and the other five families obey unconditionally and assist the head of the Huo family. Together we guard a secret about Zi Junyi."

Gu Beinian was confused and asked with a confused look on his face: "But there is no Lu family?"

Lu Nanchen explained patiently: "Huo Qitian's second wife is actually our grandfather's ancestor. Some of her descendants followed the ancestor's surname Lu, thus forming a collateral branch of the Lu family."

Hearing this, Gu Beinian suddenly became interested. She couldn't help but move her body, approached Lu Nanchen and asked, "What about the other families? They can't all disappear, right?"

The corner of Lu Nanchen's mouth raised slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly: "Basically, they have declined and gradually disappeared; the other half suffered heavy losses during the war and suffered heavy casualties. To this day, the only ones left with great achievements are our Lu family. , The so-called records you see are actually just random check marks when parents go to worship their ancestors every year. In current popular terms, it is equivalent to going there every year to check in and check in. "

Gu Beinian couldn't help showing a trace of disappointment on her face, and she muttered in frustration: "I thought I was really robbing tombs, but it turned out to be so boring! Oh, it's boring!"

Lu Nanchen picked up a strand of her hair and played with it on his finger: "Fool, even if today's society still exists, you can't blatantly rob tombs, right? Damaging national cultural relics will lead to jail time."

Gu Beinian heard other meanings from this sentence. He parted the clouds and smiled at the dawn: "I understand what you mean. The implication is..."

Lu Nanchen didn't answer, his eyes and smile could tell everything!

"Ugh!"

Gu Beinian's sigh caught Lu Nanchen's attention: "What's wrong?"

She explained: "The big trouble of Hawkeye has been solved, but there is a fish that has slipped through the net and has not been caught. Although he cannot make any big waves, he is still a trouble."

"Who?"

"A man named Ma Ran. He, Ma Baoguo, and Eagle Eye are all members of the same family. He has appeared before. Not only did he fight with my father, but he also provoked me. Chu Yitian was the one to deal with it, not to mention Eagle Eye. We didn't find the arsenal to destroy, so..."

Gu Beinian stopped abruptly in the middle of his words. According to his father, Ma Ran was brave but not resourceful. He was just a pure martial artist and was far less difficult than Hawkeye.

but……

Lu Nanchen patted her shoulder: "Don't think too much. As long as you don't run around and always bring a bodyguard with you when you go out, I guarantee there won't be any problems."

"Okay, I'll be careful."

Lu Nanchen's eyes became sharp: "I will send someone to investigate Ma Ran's whereabouts."

Gu Beinian continued: "I'll go to my parents' place in the afternoon. You can stay in the company and keep an eye on me."

"I can go with you."

…………

The two drove back to Gu's house. As soon as they entered the house, they saw their father sitting alone in the yard, legs crossed, holding a teacup in hand, reading a storybook.

When he saw the young couple walking into the courtyard, Gu Xiao quickly put down the reading material in his hand, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and joked: "Are you willing to go home?"

Lu Nanchen politely called "Dad", but Gu Beinian playfully shouted: "Hello, brother Xiao!"

"You kid, are you itchy?" Gu Xiao said angrily, but with a smile on his face.

Gu Beinian chuckled: "Dad, how are you doing lately?"

"Not bad, how about you?"

"I'm fine too." Gu Beinian replied obediently.

That's good. You two need to take good care of yourselves and don't get too tired. "Gu Xiao said lovingly.

"I know, where is my mother?"

Gu Xiao: "Inside." As he said that, he took Gu Beinian's arm and walked inside: "You haven't eaten yet, have you prepared something delicious for you?"

"OK……"

Gu Xiao personally cooked a sumptuous dinner, Gu Beinian helped his father, while Lu Nanchen sat in the living room chatting with Baizhu, looking through the old photos preserved by the Gu family.

This is a family with a century-old history, and its deep family background makes everything here look more sacred.

After a while, the table was filled with fragrant dishes, and the four of them sat down and began to eat.

Bai Shu: "You young people should go out for more walks. This is good for your health and can better enhance your relationship. Don't be busy with work all the time... Also, why didn't you bring Zhimo with you?"

Gu Beinian answered perfunctorily: "I also decided to come back temporarily. She has to go to kindergarten tomorrow."

Baizhu's eyes seemed to be saying haha, but he didn't ask any more questions and silently picked up the food for her...

"By the way, Nanchen, come to the study with me after dinner. I have something I want to talk to you about." Gu Xiao said to Lu Nanchen.

"Okay, Dad."

~~

After dinner, Lu Nanchen followed Gu Xiao to the second floor. This study was quite large, with various bookshelves against the corner, almost filled with books from left to right.

There is a large desk on the right hand side of the bookshelf, which is full of information about related industries. You can imagine how hard Gu Xiao works outside of work. There is a desk lamp on the desk that only illuminates a circle of the desk when turned on. , there is no extra light to illuminate unnecessary locations.

Opposite the desk is a comfortable boss's chair, and behind the chair there is also a bookshelf. However, the books on it have all been read by Gu Xiao, and only the row at the back has been taken down for use by the ones he often reads.

He picked up a book casually, then slowly sat on the spacious and comfortable boss chair, motioning for Lu Nanchen to sit down.

At this moment, he was not eager to talk about business, but wanted to savor this rare quiet time. In this way, the two people sat in silence, no one spoke, as if time had stopped at this moment.

I don't know how long it took, but Gu Xiao finally slowly opened his mouth and broke the silence in the room with a low and serious voice: "Nan Chen, Nian Nian, this child has always been resolute and decisive in doing things, but she In fact, she is very kind and simple at heart. It is better not to tell her directly about some things in order to avoid causing unnecessary harm and trouble to her. "

Hearing this, Lu Nanchen nodded quickly, indicating that he understood the stakes: "Dad, don't worry, I know what to do and how to handle it properly."

Gu Xiao looked at the mature and steady young man in front of him, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and said sincerely: "You two have been together for so many years, I believe in your character, and I feel safe leaving Beinian to you. ”

Gu Xiao's words made Lu Nanchen feel a great responsibility. He understood that he needed to protect and care for Gu Beinian, so that she would always be free from restraint and never be wronged...

Lu Nanchen said seriously: "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of her. Although she will have to work hard for three years, I will never let her suffer any grievance or sadness in these three years."

Gu Xiao raised his hand to fill a cup of hot tea for Lu Nanchen, and then slowly said: "Tell Beinian that she doesn't have to worry about Ma Ran anymore. All the problems have been taken care of by me. In fact, her mother and I I have long thought of retiring. After all, fame, fortune, and family are nothing compared to each other. We owe Beinian a lot for what happened before. There is an old saying that goes well, "Retirement never fades away"! We have left our jobs, but we can still continue to contribute to the country in other ways! As for the final result, it is not the most important, it is more meaningful to enjoy the process of hard work." Gu Xiao said lightly. He blew on the hot air in the cup, and then took a sip of tea.

At this moment, Gu Xiao's eyes revealed an otherworldly calmness and calmness. Seeing this, Lu Nanchen also had a smile on his lips. He raised his hand, picked up the tea cup in front of him, and took a sip...

Lu Nanchen looked at Gu Xiao thoughtfully: "I understand, Dad."

Gu Xiao stood up and patted Lu Nanchen on the shoulder, "Okay, it's getting late. You should rest early."

After his father-in-law left, he drank the tea in the cup and showed an intriguing smile.
