I was the richest man in ancient times

Chapter 94 Grandpa
"Fatty girl, look, this piece of land used to belong to your grandfather!"

Cheng Shun pointed to the large stretch of fields and said with emotion.

"so much?"

Cheng Yue was a little surprised.

She has also been here for almost a month, and after running for so long in the morning, she also knows that the entire Xinghua Village has the most fields here. Basically, every household has a little here, and their family also has two or three acres here.

"Well, not only here, but also the Osmanthus Village of Hehua Village in Lihua Village next door. There is such a big area."

Cheng Shun nodded and said.

"Then, grandpa used to be a landlord?"

Cheng Yue laughed.

"Fields, woods, lots and lots. Your father and I were the young masters of a landlord who knew nothing when we were young! Not to mention the fact that there were a lot of servants in the family, and we didn't have to do anything anyway. I wanted to study at that time, but unfortunately, I didn’t study hard, thinking that there are so many mountains and so many lands at home, why should I study hard? Studying is not fun!”

Cheng Shun smiled angrily, with regret in his tone.

"father."

Cheng Yue felt that Cheng Shun was in a bad mood and moved closer, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

"Although I'm an asshole and don't study hard, at least I can keep your grandfather's little land."

Cheng Shun said to himself.

"What about the others?"

On the way back from Jinxiu Manor last time, Cheng Yue heard Cheng Shun say that their family used to have a lot of fields, and they always wanted to ask, but because of the food stall, they never found a chance.

"You also have an uncle, who is my elder brother."

Cheng Shun didn't answer Cheng Yue directly, but told her a story.

"Your uncle has a very smart mind and great ambitions. He was motivated to become a wealthy businessman since he was a child. When your grandfather was alive, he didn't dare to mess around, but after your grandfather passed away, he took charge of the family and vowed to make our Cheng family a big business." All the rich merchants. Then, our family’s fields and forests were ruined by him bit by bit. At last, he had a conscience and didn’t sell them all. He left dozens of acres for me, and he ran away.”

"Alas! More than 30 years have passed, and I still remember what your grandfather said when he passed away, what your uncle said when he left."

"When your grandfather passed away, he said that these fields and forests were his life's painstaking efforts. He took me and your uncle's hand and said, no matter what we two brothers will do in the future, we must keep these things. The ancestral hall of our Cheng family must be established. In Xinghua Village, those fields and forests should be counted as the property of our Cheng clan."

"Fatty, your grandpa is a refugee, and all his relatives are gone. Therefore, our Cheng family has no ancestral hall, and now we only have your grandpa's memorial tablet."

"Fat girl, do you know how your grandpa died?"

"The year your grandpa died, I was 13 years old. Because I was naughty, I went to Fucheng by myself. Your grandpa went to find me, and then the mountain collapsed, and he was injured. He kept his breath just to tell us. If the Cheng family continues to develop, they must keep those fields and woods."

"Fat girl, your father and I are useless, your father and I are incompetent, I can't persuade your uncle, and I haven't fulfilled your grandfather's dying request!"

Cheng Shun cried.

This time, I really shed tears.

He never cried when his elder brother ran away. The last time he cried was when his father died when he was 13 years old.

Cheng Yue felt a little uncomfortable.
