In the 1960s, my whole family was murdered by my enemies.

This is just one of the properties where their main residence was lost.

His other properties were countless. After all, in his previous life, Zhang Yaowu from the second house was the richest man in the county!

In the previous life, part of the second wife’s happiness was achieved by stepping on the first wife’s.

Although the cousins ​​were not accomplices nor villains, they were also vested interests. She was already very kind by not harming them and by transferring the hatred of Zhang Yaowu and Zhang Yuzhen to them.

Zhang Lin’s idea coincides with Zhang Changshun’s.

Although the three brothers over there are also his grandchildren, he cannot pay too much attention to them because of their parents.

Besides, although two of the three brothers are not bad, compared with the other grandsons, they don’t seem like members of the Zhang family. Not to mention whether they are smart or not, their character is much worse.

Even Manqin's unreliable son is much better than the three brothers next door after being reformed.

Xu Guangrong is now studying well, being filial, and taking care of his two sisters. He is almost like two different people from the first time he came to his hometown.

As the head of the family, Zhang Changshun is the most clear-headed and his rationality is frightening.

To be honest, when Zhang Lin first traveled back in time, he didn't expect that his grandfather, who had always had feudal ideas, would be so receptive and clear-headed.

Next door, the situation did not calm down after Zhang Guoping and his wife left, but became even worse.

Zhang Lin and his friends suspected that most of the things in the second room might have been smashed.

The crackling sound is like an accompaniment to cooking and eating here...

"Oh my god, Linlin, this Wang Cuihua is so scary. Fortunately, we are back and don't have to face her. Otherwise, I might be mad to death."

Xu Jiaojiao whispered to Zhang Lin secretly.

She was not very smart and knew very well that she could never beat Wang Cuihua.

The corners of Zhang Lin's mouth twitched. This was because she had never met Zhang Yuzhen, otherwise she would have been even more stunned.

Wang Cuihua can only curse and swear, but she can't accomplish anything great and she is not that scary.

Zhang Yuzhen can poison you to death if she disagrees with you. Without a cheat code, it's hard to guard against being with such a person.

"However, fortunately, the person who poisoned me is gone, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come back."

Xu Jiaojiao had returned to her hometown a few years ago, so she had naturally heard about Zhang Yuzhen's deeds and was shocked at the time.

Is this her cousin?

Is he so vicious at the age of twelve?

Incredible!

"Dad, if we have the chance in the future, we will build a house and move out."

Tian Xiaofen looked at Zhang Changshun with an apologetic look on her face.

There's no way. Although this large yard is separated, any movement can still be clearly heard.

As a neighbor of Wang Cuihua, she had long wanted to move away.

Unfortunately, it’s not that they can’t afford to buy a house, but the current policy makes it inconvenient.

Zhang Changshun was not unhappy at all, and nodded: "Get up, old man, I also want to move out of the house, if I don't move, I'm afraid I will shorten my life."

Tian Xiaofen finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the old man was not unhappy at all and even wanted to move away.

Her husband said that the environment is getting better day by day, and it won’t be long before they don’t have to live such a low-key life.

She has been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Xiao Tan, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Zhang Changshun looked at Tan Jian.

Tan Jian was not surprised at all. He had been here for more than ten years and knew basically everything that happened in the brigade.

"Uncle Zhang, don't think too much."

Tan Jian chatted with Zhang Changshun for a while and insisted on helping to clean up the dishes. After Chen Yuwei and others dissuaded him, he looked at Zhang Lin.

"Linlin, if you have the opportunity to continue studying in the future, you must come to the capital."

Tan Jian is a university teacher. He believes that it won’t be long before he can go back to college.

As a veteran who was born in Beijing and has lived there for decades, Tan Jian is still very perceptive. He can foresee many subsequent events from the rehabilitation of several of his own people.

Zhang Lin nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, Uncle Tan, whether you study or not, you will be able to see me soon."

The next day, after seeing Tan Jian off, Chen Yuwei also set off back to the mountain city to work.

Xu Jiaojiao also followed Chen Yuwei back to the county town, as she also had to go to work.

The Zhang family prepared rich food for Tan Jian and his companions.

The weather is hot and food cannot be stored properly, so Zhang Lin and her colleagues prepared food that is heat-resistant and easy to store.

Watching the few people gradually go away, Zhang Lin, Zhang Changshun, Zhang Xiao, and Zhang Guoping slowly walked towards home.

From afar, passing by the brigade office and looking at the stretch of old houses, Zhang Changshun still felt a sense of familiarity even after so much time had passed.

[Grandpa, our ancestral home is such a big house, but there is no secret room or anything like that? ]

Passing by the brigade office, Zhang Lin looked at the stretch of houses and felt a little sorry.

This is the ancestral home of the Zhang family in their hometown. It is one or two hundred years old. However, the Zhang family has spent a lot of money to repair it and protect it very well.

On the contrary, it has been destroyed beyond recognition in the past twenty years or so.

A hint of reluctance and regret flashed in Zhang Changshun's eyes.

This house is the root of the Zhang family. Fortunately, we can still see it often, which is a comfort.

Zhang Lin also felt it was a pity.

Even in the future, this house will never be returned to the Zhang family. However, if it is well protected, it can be used as a tourist attraction in the future to drive the development of the hometown.

After all, many of the slums that were opened as tourist attractions in later generations are not as good as the Zhang family's courtyard.

To be honest, even the courtyard on the hill outside the mountain city is not as ancient and quaint as this courtyard...

Zhang Changshun glanced at the Zhang Xiao siblings who were playing in front of him, then lowered his voice and told Zhang Lin.

"How could there be no secret room? That big family wouldn't have a secret room."

"However, in order to show our sincerity, we even opened the secret room."

"Now, it has long been used by the brigade office as a data room for the collection of important information."

Zhang Lin looked at the large yard which was mostly abandoned and even the roof was damaged. It was such a pity.

How much space can a brigade office have? Part of the backyard was used as a center for educated youth.

Most of the others are vacant.

Although many people envied this big house, no one dared to move in.

[Unfortunately, unlike those courtyard houses in Beijing, our family’s voluntary surrender and confiscated property will not be returned after the reform and opening up in the future...]

This is completely different from the nature of a siheyuan, so I’d rather not come back.

"By the way, how's that thing going?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Changshun spoke in an inaudible voice, and he didn't say anything clearly.

Zhang Lin understood instantly, and that night, he secretly found Zhang Changshun and took out a pile of map fragments.

In addition to the small piece he and Zhang Wan had pieced together before, in recent years, Zhang Lin has drawn two courtyards, three small islands, and countless map fragments.

After a lot of hard work between the grandfather and grandson, half of the map was already connected.

Judging from the scale, this map is huge.

Zhang Lin and Zhang Changshun studied it for a long time but couldn't figure out where it was.
