    Ruihe didn¡¯t know that Zhou Laoqi had thought so much while waiting for him for half an hour. If he knew what Zhou Laoqi was thinking, he would only lament that he has such an accurate eye for people.  The original person sent money home to support his parents and brothers. Among them, the one who spent the most effort on him was his seventh brother Zhou Dabao.  When Zhou Dabao came to the county town to study in the past, he rented the yard from his original wife.  Having been close to each other for nearly ten years, the original person has long understood his younger brother, and his heart is as high as the sky!  As soon as I read that I was a child, I started to look down on my second brother who was a businessman and a son-in-law.  The original person was sad, but he didn't say much. But when his younger brother finally came forward in the imperial examination, he reduced his contact with his younger brother and did not take the initiative to get close to him to attract cold looks.

    So Ruihe didn¡¯t contact Zhou Laoqi when he came to the capital to open a store.

    "There are not many customers anymore. I'll go to the back and keep an eye on the store." Ruihe told Fugui, and then he carried the tray to the backyard.  He still remembered the look on Zhou Laoqi's face when he was about to speak but was hiding his thoughts. He had to listen to what Zhou Laoqi wanted to say to him.  That expression didn't look like a simple surprise of seeing his brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

    Facing the porridge and side dishes brought by Ruihe, Zhou Laoqi was not in the mood to eat them. He only took a few bites and then got down to business.  He didn't dare to ask directly, and only asked about his nephew in indirect ways.

    "He's gone to study in another place. Yes, it's quite far away. I haven't seen him in two years, but that doesn't matter, as long as he is promising."

    Zhou Laoqi rolled his eyes: "Junnian, too. Even if I can't go home, I still have to write you a letter. Have you written a letter?"

    "I wrote it! I wrote it! He is studying well outside."

    "You are twenty-two or twenty-three in Junnian, right? How are your imperial examination results? Did you take the provincial examination this year?"

    "I don't know about this. I don't understand this either. Dabao, please eat quickly. The food will be cold in a while."

    He didn¡¯t find out anything. If Zhou Laoqi hadn¡¯t already known the whole story, he would have been deceived by his second brother.  This is really hidden deep enough, not even a single word is revealed, just like a clam shell.  Zhou Laoqi was angry because he stood on his own side, but he didn't expect that his second brother might have been induced and coerced by Yuan Shilang to keep secret, so selfish!

    He moved his butt, and finally couldn't help but asked in a deep voice: "Second brother, are you hiding something from me?"

    "What are you hiding from you?" Rui He smiled, "You are different now that you are an official. You speak with such grandeur. I think the county magistrates back home are not as grand as you."

    Zhou Laoqi felt that these words seemed to be sarcastic to him, but looking at the sincerity of his second brother, it seemed that he was overthinking it again.  He coughed and said, "There is no sense of grandeur. I am just a small official. I have been living with my tail between my legs in the past few years in the capital. There is nothing I can do. I have no connections and no backing. Alas!"

    "Last time I read the letter home from my parents, you said that my sister-in-law is pregnant again. Will this pregnancy go smoothly?"

    "" Zhou Laoqi paused before saying, "It went well, I gave birth to a daughter!" His wife was the daughter of a local squire whom he married when he was working as a county magistrate. He brought in a fortune  With a generous dowry, he later moved to stay in Beijing, and his wife's dowry subsidy was indispensable.  As soon as he mentioned that there was no backstage, the second brother asked about his wife. Why did he feel that the second brother was mocking him?

    Rui He showed a happy smile: "The relationship is good, the girl is well-behaved and filial. I also have a gift for her. Next time you come over, I will bring it back to you."

    Zhou Lao Qi didn't ask anything, but felt full of sullenness. He simply asked directly: "Second brother, I know about Junnian. I saw him in the capital. Second brother, why didn't you do this?  I discussed it with my family and found out that that family is really bullying! What happened when a good child suddenly turned into an adopted son?"

    "So you knew, it's nothing, it's all in the past, the Li family even gave me the restaurant as compensation." Ruihe asked Zhou Laoqi, "You actually knew, when did you know, and how did you know?  "

    "I just found out. I originally wanted to write to my second brother to ask. But since you left your hometown, your family doesn't know where you are staying, and they don't know where to send the letter." Zhou Laoqi didn't tell the truth.  , asked Ruihe worriedly, "Second brother, if I knew that you were coming to the capital to do business, I would definitely advise you not to come. Do you know that Yuan Lang is the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, and the Minister of the Ministry of Finance will retire in two years at most?  , Yuan Lang is his confidant, and it is said that he is likely to be his successor. Second brother, do you know what the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue is? That is the second-rank official of the imperial court! It will be as effortless to crush you to death as it is to crush an ant!"

    Ruihe listened quietly, observing Zhou Laoqi's facial expressions calmly, then made a depressed look and smiled bitterly: "What you said is,? Beijing is a big city and I have never been out in my life. I want to open a restaurant of my own in Beijing.  I came to the capital not to look for trouble. I promised Mr. Yuan that I would not talk nonsense and that I would keep my secrets in my heart and carry them into the coffin.  Dabao, since you already know Junnian, no, it¡¯s Jixian, he is called Jixian now. Since you know his life experience, don¡¯t go out and talk nonsense. I don¡¯t have anything to say. Anyway, I haven¡¯t said it to anyone. If  Someone outside has spread rumors about Jixian's life experience. Be careful that Mr. Yuan will not let you go when the time comes. You are an official in the capital. You just said that Mr. Yuan will become a high official like Mr. Shangshu in the future. It will be easy for him to manipulate you.  "

    At the end of the sentence, he looked at Zhou Laoqi sincerely and warned again: "Dabao, you must remember this. Don't spread it outside. This is a secret."

    "" Zhou Laoqi was really suffocated to death. Why didn't this second brother act according to common sense?  It was obvious that I was worried about him and warned him, but why did it turn out that I was being warned?  "Second brother, I, I won't talk nonsense!" As soon as he said the words, he saw the second brother sitting opposite showing a happy smile, and his tone became even more aggrieved!

    "Second brother, the Yuan family said to the outside world that Jixian was fostered in his hometown and was brought back after surviving the death disaster mentioned by the eminent monk. This is something that many people know, and it is not a secret."

    "Oh, that's it." Rui He lowered his eyes, "The Yuan family told me not to tell anyone in the past few years. We can't let others know that Jixian was raised in our family, for fear of the impact of Li's affairs.  To Jixian's reputation. So, you still can't tell anyone about this matter, otherwise Mr. Yuan will definitely pursue it."

    Ruihe has already seen that Zhou Laoqi has his own thoughts.

    " Got it. Second brother, why don't you leave the capital." Zhou Laoqi regained his composure and stated his purpose, "Although you said you promised Yuan Shilang not to leak the secret, if he knows about you  In the capital, there is no guarantee that they will misunderstand you and think you are here¡ª"

    "No." Ruihe said with a smile, "Dabao, you can rest assured that Mr. Yuan is not that kind of person. When I came to the capital, I sent a letter to the Vice Minister's Mansion, saying that I really came to do business and would not go there.  I'm looking for Mr. Yuan. Look, isn't my restaurant running well?"

    "What?!" Zhou Laoqi was really shocked this time. He even bumped into the corner of the table, "What did you say?!" You, you, how dare you do this?

    Ruihe sighed: "I have considered what you said before. I was also afraid that Mr. Yuan would misunderstand me, so I informed Mr. Yuan that I was coming when I arrived in the capital. I am so open-minded, and I have done well in business in the past two years.  It went quite smoothly. It shows that Mr. Yuan knows my sincerity. I think so. He is a big shot and I am just a cook. Why does he want to make things difficult for me? I use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman. Hey, seventh child,  What are you so excited about? Oh oh, I get it. Are you happy for me? My second brother didn¡¯t raise you as a younger brother in vain. Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m opening a shop in Beijing. It¡¯s safe! You want to come to eat in the future?  , even if you come here to see my second brother, I will never miss your hot meals and dishes."

    When Zhou Laoqi left Zhou's Restaurant, his face was tense.  After getting on the carriage, he immediately punched the wall of the carriage hard: "You bastard!"

    "Master?" the coachman asked from outside.

    "It's okay! Go home quickly!" Zhou Laoqi clenched his hands into fists, and the joy of climbing to the top slowly disappeared after reuniting with his second brother.  He never expected that this second brother would do things like this. Who could do such a thing?  You raised a son for another man for sixteen or seventeen years, and the child was still snatched away. That man was still powerful. The two of them were the difference between clouds in the sky and mud on the ground. As a man, aren't you jealous?  , don¡¯t you feel hatred?  Just avoid meeting each other, the capital is so big, who would be in the way of doing business?  How could he be so shameless and still come to the door and say that he was really here to do business, just for fear of being misunderstood?

    Can people think highly of him?  I don¡¯t know why I¡¯m laughing at you behind my back!

    ¡° Such a boneless and dignified man turned out to be his second brother, and his face felt hot just thinking about it.

    "This won't work." Zhou Laoqi was thinking all the way. Although he knew that Li was not dead, he also guessed that it was Yuan Shilang who had done it, but did he dare to threaten Yuan Shilang with this?  He doesn't dare!  When he contacted Mr. Yuan, he didn't dare to reveal the fact that he knew that Li was not dead, because he knew that once the matter was revealed, there would be no way around it, even if he could get some benefits from it.  But he also completely offended Yuan Shilang, who was the future Minister of Household Affairs, so he didn't dare.

    But the second brother is unwilling to leave the capital, so one day the second brother will meet Li.  At that time, if the second brother starts shouting, Yuan Shilang will definitely not spare his life, and his younger brother will also be implicated.

    This is hell!  It's a good handle, but I don't dare to use it. Now I have to watch out for my second brother to break the handle. I'm really worried!

    After sending Zhou Lao Qi away, Rui He shook his head secretly. His efforts to this younger brother were really in vain.
