Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

It was not yet time for dinner, and there were not many people in the state-owned restaurant. He had to wait for a while, so Ouyang Qing found a table closest to the food pick-up area and sat down. After a while, he heard Sister Fang's loud voice coming from the window: "Girl, come here, your things are all packed."

Ouyang Qing walked to the window, took out a piece of square cloth from his backpack, packed two portions of braised pork and a portion of wrapped meat buns on the cloth, and put the rest into his canvas bag. Since coming here, Ouyang Qing has fallen in love with this canvas bag. Besides being very large in size, it can also hold a lot of things. It's so cool.

"Sister Fang, I'm leaving first. Please remember to tell Chef Sun that I'll come back in a few days. This braised pork is my family's favorite. Please tell him to use all his best skills. I will come to support him often." The two exchanged a few words of greeting.

She left the state-owned restaurant with a smile. When they were on a remote road from home, Ouyang Qing made sure that her elder brother was following her. Seeing that there was no one around, she put the packaged meat and buns on a stone pier by the roadside, and also put two bags of beef jerky wrapped in brown paper next to them.

Ouyang Qing placed the things in the most conspicuous place on the roadside and left. The two people who followed her from a distance understood what she meant when they saw Ouyang Qing put down the package and leave.

The two quickened their pace and arrived beside the stone pillar. Ouyang Bai picked up the package, and Gu Yueze opened the beef jerky and each took a piece.

"Ouyang, you have nothing to say now! How high is Qingqing's IQ? Not only was she able to trick the traffickers into the police station, but now she has left food for you just by guessing. To be honest, Qingqing is really talented. I have discovered in the past few days that her observation skills have already reached the level after our special training. She is too talented!"

The two watched the man enter the alley, and waited for a long time before they turned around and left. Ouyang Bai handed over the package in his hand: "Old Gu, you go back with the things and steam the rice first. The brothers have worked hard in recent days. This is also my territory. I will go and make a few delicious dishes."

These days, the brothers were busy running around investigating and collecting evidence, and they just had a few simple bites when they came back. Ouyang Bai went to the state-owned restaurant and packed several servings of vegetables and meat buns, intending to have a snack with his brothers after returning.

Ouyang Qing, who had just returned home from Tuanjie Lane, saw Xiaoheng and the neighbor's children playing at the door. It was also time to get off work, and the sounds of doors opening and closing could be heard from the alley. Not long after, his mother came back. Ouyang Qing walked up and opened the gate as wide as possible so that Mother Zhou could help the bicycle in.

"Mom, I went to the state-owned restaurant to buy some vegetables. You can just cook. What vegetables are you going to stir-fry for lunch? I'll go wash them first." The mother and daughter were busy in the kitchen. Ouyang Heng, who was playing at the doorstep, also followed the father and son who were getting off work into the house.

School is about to start tomorrow, and Ouyang Qing hasn't had much time to enter the space recently. Last time, he found a tattered book of palace beauty recipes at the scrap yard. Fortunately, only the cover and corners of the book were slightly damaged, and the content of the book was not affected at all.

He opened the book and started reading it. After a while, Ouyang Qing gave up. He knew nothing about pharmacology. He was confused about the production methods and the ingredients used in the prescriptions. As expected, the beauty-enhancing skin care products made by the heroine in the novel had nothing to do with him. He got a headache after reading for just a short while.

Forget it. I can find someone who understands it to study it later. There’s no need to make myself suffer. To comfort myself, I’ll just continue to be bad today!

Ouyang Bai had not found anything suspicious about the people and things around his home through his observations over the past few days, including the two people in the factory. Although he knew that this matter could not be rushed, the danger that could lurk at any time inevitably made him feel a little indignant.

In the early morning, strong winds were raging outside the house, and rain was hitting the windows. Two tall men were walking on the dark road. They were wearing old-fashioned long canvas raincoats and were hurriedly heading towards Tuanjie Lane. When they were about to enter the lane, they stopped and looked around. The sudden heavy rain did not wake up the sleeping people.

It happened that Ouyang Bai and his companion were on duty in the second half of the night. It was raining so heavily that they found a secluded place to hide from the rain. However, the heavier the rain got, the more uneasy Ouyang Bai felt.

The two of them waited quietly like this. They didn't know when the wind became weaker and the heavy rain just now turned into light rain. Only the puddles on the road could prove that there had been a heavy rain. Suddenly, Ouyang Bai's ears moved and he raised his hand and pointed to the road ahead.

Gu Yueze raised his eyes and looked into the distance. After a long time, he heard the squeaking sound of shoes stepping into a puddle. The sound came from far away and got closer. When the people came closer, Ouyang Bai could see the two figures walking over. When one of them stopped and turned around, the two held their breath and hid themselves at lightning speed.

When they were sure that the people were heading to the alley, they immediately took action. According to the previous agreement, Gu Yueze walked through the front yard, while Ouyang Bai, familiar with the terrain, climbed over the neighbor's wall and walked quickly towards his own backyard.

The two people who came in first stopped outside the gate of Ouyang's house, and after observing the surroundings for a while, the man who had stopped before suddenly turned over and went in, followed by the other one. If Ouyang Qing could see this scene of climbing over the wall, he would immediately recognize that the person who went in first was the same person who came in last time.

Time was urgent and the two had no time to send a message. At the same time when the two turned over and went in, Gu Yueze and Ouyang Bai also arrived. The purpose of the two was also very clear. After entering the yard, they went straight to the door of the main hall.

In the dark night, the man took out a thin iron hook from his sleeve, reached into the door through the crack, and fiddled with it gently a few times. There was a click sound from inside, and the door was opened.

As soon as they entered the main room, they saw a door on each side. The two people inside the room took out their pistols and turned the doorknobs at the same time. Ouyang Bo and the other man outside the room who saw the pistols didn't care about anything else. They took out their guns and ran forward, shooting at the wrists of the two people who were about to open the door.

The night after the rain stopped was particularly quiet. Two gunshots, bang bang..., woke up everyone who was sleeping. The two people in the house were shot in the wrist at the same time.

They quickly hid behind the table, enduring the pain and not caring about anything else, and immediately picked up the pistol on the ground with their uninjured hands. Ouyang Zhen and his wife in the room didn't dare to lie on the bed or open the door after hearing the gunshots. At least the room was safe now. Ouyang Zhen walked to the closet and pushed Zhou Guilan with both hands, and she immediately understood what he meant.

The two men moved the wardrobe behind the door, and the heavy wardrobe blocked the door. They could not help if they went out now, so it was better not to cause trouble. Ouyang Zhen discovered it after being followed a few times. Seeing that they had no ill intentions, he pretended not to say anything. With his daughter's several subtle hints, he knew that those people were the ones protecting them.

However, he didn't know that the person outside the house was his eldest son. When Ouyang Qing and his siblings upstairs heard the gunshots, they blocked the door as soon as possible. From the noise, they knew that there were two groups of people shooting downstairs. Now the neighbors around didn't dare to open the door and go out, and they all hid in the place they thought was safe in their home.
