C7 What to do with the knife

Chapter VII Descendants of the Great Grandpa

Seeing me bring the Pig Slaughtering Knife home, my parents and Second Uncle were all stunned. They hurriedly asked me what was going on, and then I told them what had happened, saying that I had placed the knife in my bag.

Then my father wanted to call Master Chen and tell him that we found the knife and wanted to give it to him.

But I stopped my father, and told them that this knife cannot be given to the Master Chen.

My father asked me why.

I told them what my grandfather had told me last night.

The result is that my father is very unhappy, because previously, when Master Chen asked us, I replied that I had not seen grandfather before.

I directly tried to reason with them, but why would they choose to believe that the outsider in Master Chen would not believe my grandfather? I definitely believed in my grandfather anyway, he definitely wouldn't harm me, he definitely had a reason for me to look after the blade, if I were to give it to Master Chen now, I would definitely not be willing.

However, my words annoyed my father, and we ended up in a quarrel, and it ended with my mother's outburst. These few days, it made people panic, the Second Uncle's encounter, Master Wang's death, made my mother scared to death, and even more so, my mother couldn't sleep all night, and her entire body had sagged, and now we are still arguing, so my mother exploded, pointing at me and my father, cursing at us, not wanting to cause more deaths in the family, so we ended the quarrel under my mother's wailing.

Second Uncle gave me a suggestion, asking me what should I do if I lose this blade. My reply is, if this blade disappears, it will always return to my hands, are you sure you can lose it?

Thus, my family was stuck in a dilemma. As to what to do with this blade, my father wanted to give it to Master Chen, while Second Uncle said that he would throw it away, but I insisted on staying, and my opinion was especially firm this time. Previously, they treated me like a child and did not tell me anything.

We argued over this question for a long time, but we could not come up with anything, so we could only continue the stalemate. However, in the afternoon, my father received a very unexpected phone call.

Because it was a multinational phone call, it claimed to be my father's uncle. They had heard the news of my grandfather's death, so they came back from abroad. They were already halfway there.

After hanging up, I was a little confused. I asked my father what was going on, why did he have an uncle who came out so soon after, and why did he come back so quickly?

"I don't know about that either. In the past, my grandfather had four sons and a daughter. During the revolution, my grandfather was persecuted, and so were my uncles, even my grandchildren, because my grandfather's family had inherited feng shui techniques. My uncles were criticized, sentenced, and sent to the farm to work as a teacher, and then the bad news came one by one, and when the time came for the reform and opening of the country, it seemed like my grandfather's family still had one son left with the rest of his orphans and widows to go to sea trade, and then it was gone forever. Some people said that they had made a fortune and emigrated abroad, and others that they were dead, so when your grandfather died, I couldn't contact them at all.

Since the death of their elders was not a glorious death, many of their friends did not notify them. However, important relatives must be notified, and their parents must be informed as well. However, because of those reasons, they did not inform them in time.

I was rather interested in the affairs of the older generation, so I chased after my father and asked him how those things were like back then. My father also did not have any intention of hiding it anymore, because there were many things that the later generations truly did not know about, they did not even know a lot about the younger Second Uncle, because he was not even born back then.

My dad told me that Wen Yin of that year. At that time, the temple was completely demolished, so the entire family of the Great Grandpa was in trouble, and because of the Great Grandpa's famous reputation, it offended many people, causing it to be stung. The events from many years ago were dug up by people, saying that the Great Grandpa had ulterior motives, and was directly destroyed, and these few young and rich sons of his were the same, only leaving behind his youngest son and a few young grandsons, so they all really hated the government, and ran away the moment they had the chance.

My father's words made me click my tongue. I didn't expect that the descendant of Great Grandpa was actually still the opposite. Politics. It's impossible for a family to have been persecuted to death like this, even if there was a so-called reversal later on, it's still useless. Because the reversal that year was just to get rid of the blame, and I can't get the lost wealth back, and the dead can't even find the murderer.

At dusk, the descendant of the Great Grandpa arrived. He was the youngest son of the Great Grandpa, and was also my father and his uncle. I, on the other hand, had to be the Uncle.

Fortunately, he didn't come alone, he even brought a grandson of the same generation as me, called Sun Yong. He's also about the same age as me, and is very handsome, but his expression is very aloof, following behind Uncle without saying a word.

The Uncle didn't only have this grandfather-grandson pair, they also brought a dozen or so people with them. There were drivers, bodyguards, and even a nanny, five or six luxury cars.

Even if the houses in the countryside were big, they wouldn't be able to accommodate so many of them. In the end, Uncle waved his hand and pushed his way through.

After a few simple greetings, everyone sat down to chat. Uncle asked about our family's recent decades of history, and my father answered all of them one by one, although when Uncle heard that my grandfather had been a pig slaughterer his entire life, he was a little surprised. He also said that my father advised my grandfather not to do this kind of thing again.

It turns out that back then, because of their hatred, they had to face hardships after going on a rebellion. Fortunately, after the reform and opening up of the country, they went all out to work south, and all they had to do was to suffer, but their hard work had paid off. After working hard for a long time, they finally got the appreciation of the foreign merchants, and through their relationship, they eventually settled down in a foreign country.

It was just because the continent had always been their heartbroken land, that they had never returned for many years. It was only because these few years, when the Uncle was old, that they started to miss their hometown, and let others ask them for some information. However, just as their grandfather had passed on this time, my father sent people everywhere to ask for news of them.

It was said that the relationship between the little Uncle and his grandmother was the best back then, so the relationship between them and her grandfather was similarly good as well. That was why he had come here from such a far distance, and naturally had to ask about her grandfather's death.

We will not hide this fact from you. Firstly, we are on the same side, and secondly, we have our own plans. We would like to ask Uncle if he knows what's going on with this blade.

After listening to Grandfather's death and the strange things that happened in the past few days, Uncle didn't say anything for a long time. His brows were tightly knitted, but the eyes of his grandson, Sun Yong, lit up as if he was a child who had seen his beloved toy.

"Grandfather, is that blade the blade you always spoke of?" Sun Yong asked in a small voice, but Uncle's cold eyes swept over him, causing that Sun Yong to shut his mouth.

"Uncle, do you know what's going on with the blade over there?" I immediately took the chance to ask.

"I know a little bit. At that time, even though I was still young, I can already remember it." The Uncle replied.

"Then what's going on? Tell me, our family is in chaos because of this blade. If this goes on, we'll all be tortured to death," I hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you guys slowly in the future. Now let me see that blade," the Uncle replied.

So I took out the blade and gave it to the Uncle, who intentionally put on his reading glasses to look at it carefully, but his expression remained the same, not showing anything at all. On the other hand, his grandson, Sun Yong, impatiently took the blade after Uncle finished looking at it, played around with it, and actually flicked his finger on the blade.

"Ding" the blade emitted a clear sound, but I suddenly felt my heart palpitating, as though someone punched my heart, making me feel extremely uncomfortable. I raised my head, and realised that I was not the only one, everyone was the same, and Sun Yong was the most miserable, the blade in his hand had already fallen, he was lying on the sofa with a pale face, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.

"Nonsense, are you courting death?" Uncle was the first to react as he helped Sun Yong feed him some hot water and scolded him loudly.

We asked what was going on but Uncle only replied vaguely, saying that it was a child's play, while Sun Yong appeared to be ashamed.

Speaking till here, there was nothing to talk about. Furthermore, Uncle and the rest had worked hard all the way, so they let them rest. The next day, they still had to go to Grandfather's grave to burn incense.
