Chapter two thousand and forty-eight the tenth good man

When Li Mazi and I returned to Boss Guo’s house again, it was already past 2 o’clock in the middle of the night. We were both very reluctant to refuse, but we were a little disappointed to bother with their family to rest.

But Boss Guo said that we worked hard all the time to Shanxi, and the water and rice had not been drained until now. If we didn't even eat a meal, he would be even more disgusted. Moreover, he had asked his wife to take her daughter back to her parents' home, and his son and Xiao Xu lived back to the company, emptying the house just to entertain us well.

When we saw this, we would have let Boss Guo down!

Moreover, this person has no airs of a rich man at all, and is as friendly and easy-going as an old friend he has known for a long time. So we had to be respectful and obey our orders.

As soon as he entered the door, Boss Guo pulled over the apron next to the shoe rack and told us: "You sit for a while and I'll be fine right away." Then he got into the kitchen.

Although Li Mazi also knew that Boss Guo was very simple, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this house.

But whether it is Xu Guangsheng's antique palace, Lin Feng's European villa, or Liu Yang's riverside villa, it lacks a sense of home-like feeling compared to this ordinary and amazing house.

The kitchen was filled with pots and spoons and jingling, and the fragrance of vegetables wafted out from time to time.

As soon as Li Mazi smelled the fragrance, she immediately swallowed her saliva.

"Well, brother, please rest for a while, I'll help." Li Mazi said and rushed into the kitchen.

I know this guy is helping out, but in fact, I have taken a few bites to satisfy my cravings first.

But I couldn't run in as well - it was the first time I went to someone's house to be a guest. Before I could wait for the table, I was half full in the kitchen, which was a bit unreasonable.

However, my stomach was roaring with hunger, and smelling such a strong fragrance again, so how could I sit there? So I raised my hands and watched around to distract myself.

Boss Guo’s home is very ordinary and the decorations are extremely simple.

A slightly old leather sofa, a black walnut-pressed glass coffee table, and a miscellaneous rack next to the TV wall opposite.

There are a few books casually placed on it, as well as some interesting gadgets.

I had already seen it briefly when I came last time, especially the engravings on the small teacup impressed me. As I turned around, my eyes were attracted by a photo.

This is the most ordinary family portrait!

In the middle of the photo, there was a fat old man sitting, and behind him was the slightly younger boss Guo and his wife. Guo Xia and Guo Fang were only six or seven years old, leaning against the old man on the left and right.

The whole family smiled and showed a sense of happiness.

Just from the appearance, it can be seen that the old man must be Boss Guo’s father.

What attracted me was the pendant around his father's neck.

It was exactly the same as the one that Huang Dawang held tightly in his hand!

It seems nothing special, just a copper chain with a tear-like crystal hanging on it.

But I have seen it with my own eyes that this is not an ordinary thing, but a thing of the great virtues of the ten generations.

What is a great virtue in the ten generations?

It is a great man who has done all good deeds for generations, ten consecutive years.

A person who only does good things but not bad things in his life is already an alien, but it is really not easy for ten generations to do this!

Such people will bring blessings to themselves, and they are simply walking Maitreya Buddha.

If you have helped such a person, the good deeds you have accumulated will be even more shocking. Not to mention anything else, I have violated the rules of Yinwu merchants several times before, and all the Yin debts I owe will be cancelled!

"It's time to eat!" At this moment, Boss Guo walked out of the kitchen with two plates of dishes and smiled.

"Boss Guo, please forgive me for taking the liberty. Is this my father?" I asked pointing to the photo.

"Yes." Boss Guo nodded and said, "I passed away a few years ago."

"Then this chain..."

"He has always kept it with me since I can remember it until it was passed to me before my death, and said that I would pass it to Guo Fang in the future. Why, is this still a treasure?" Boss Guo smiled, and then said with great regret: "There was some accident at the construction site two years ago. When I arrived at the site to deal with it, I lost it in chaos."

Speaking of this, he shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Oh, let's not mention this anymore. Master Zhang, come and sit down. Taste my skills!" As he said that, he returned to the kitchen.

Lost on the construction site? It seems that it is correct.

Didn’t Zhao Laoshi say that the chain was picked up by him at the construction site?

In other words, Boss Guo is the great charity who has accumulated ten lifetimes of merit!

After a while, Boss Guo went in and out several times, and a large table was set up full of delicious food.

Li Mazi walked out of the kitchen while rubbing her greasy hands, and greeted me with a bulging mouth: "Come and try it, Boss Guo's craftsmanship is really good! I think this mouth was white before."

"Haha..." Boss Guo smiled while holding the beer: "Master Li is really good at speaking! Come on, I won't say anything about thanks and greetings today. Let's just stop drinking."

The food on the table was extremely ordinary, with no rare game, no expensive ingredients, and even the platter was not very eye-catching. But just like Boss Guo’s personality, it was ordinary, simple and unpretentious, and there was a calm and refreshing fragrance in the ordinary.

Soon, under the wind and wind of the three of us, the table of food was wiped out by half. Li Mazi was so full that she only burped and said with an unsatisfactory feeling: "It's not bad! With this meal, Shanxi's experience was not in vain! It would be great if I could have a few more meals."

"Haha..." Boss Guo laughed: "If Master Li likes it, you might as well live for a few more days. It just so happens that my recent projects are all in the shutdown period, and there is some time."

After hearing what he said, I immediately remembered the first phase of the project he mentioned when he first met.

"Lao Guo, the reason why the newly built residential community has to be shut down is because we have to dig the ancient tomb first. This is what happened to the first phase of the tunnel project you mentioned? Why can't the construction start?" I asked.

"Oh, stop mentioning it!" When Boss Guo heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried and poured another glass of strong wine: "In order to open this tunnel, I have been preparing for it for more than ten years. To put it earlier, when I was in school, I wanted to poke a hole in the mountain and pave a road out..."

"Why are we so poor here? Isn't it because the path is not too remote?"

"We are close to Hebei and are not far from Beijing, but all the highways and railways are around here. In the early years, large tracts of vegetables and fruits could not be transported even if they were rotten to the ground. The farmers worked hard for a long time and finally could only sit in the ground and cried! Although it is getting better now, it has never been sold at the price due to transportation costs and time. Going out to work, study, and medical treatment has become a problem. This mountain has stuck the lifeline of the people in the county! If this tunnel is not opened, the people in the county will have to be poor for the rest of their lives! They will suffer for the rest of their lives."
