I don't know why, but Ling Shaonan suddenly felt nervous at this moment. In the life before his rebirth, he had been hanging out in Shanghai since he left here. Even though his eldest brother and second brother came to him many times, he never came back. Now he is standing again.

In front of the door painted dark red, his heart beat rapidly and disobediently, and it sounded like a drum in his ears.

Maybe this is the so-called "fear of being close to home"! He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and sorted out his mood. When he opened his eyes again, Ling Shaonan's mood finally calmed down, with a deep sense of warmth and a touch of calmness.

excited.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

Raising his hand and knocking three times on the mottled sycamore wood door, Ling Shaonan put down his hand and stood there quietly. He didn't have to wait long before a melodious, clear and sweet voice like an oriole rang out: "Yes.

Who is it? Here we come!”

"Little sister, it's me, I'm back!"

A slightly trembling voice came from Ling Shaonan's throat. He was so familiar with the owner of this voice that he could recognize even one word: this was his little sister, the youngest of the eight children in the orphanage—

—Xiao Shaoqiu.

"Ah!" There was an exclamation. The footsteps inside the door stopped for a moment at first, and then rang quickly again. With a sound of "ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.

The door was opened with such force that one couldn't help but wonder whether the two ancient antiques would fall apart because they could not withstand the tremendous force.

"Third brother, you are finally back! Last time Liu Meng and the others came over and said that you were studying with an old Taoist, the grandparents were worried. It would be best if you came back now!" Ling Shaonan hadn't seen the door clearly yet.

Seeing the scene inside, a small figure rushed over like an arrow, plunged into his arms, hugged his waist forcefully, and started sobbing.

"Okay little sister, Liu Meng and the others didn't lie. Isn't the third brother back? Don't worry! By the way, are your grandparents at home?" He was stunned for a moment before he realized what was going on. Ling Shaonan's

His left hand patted Xiao Shaoqiu's delicate pink back, and his right hand gently stroked her hair that fell like a waterfall.

"Well, my grandparents are all at home, and so are my second and third sisters!" Ling Shaonan's hand seemed to have some indescribable magic power. It fell on Xiao Shaoqiu and quickly made her recover from her excitement.

come over.

He raised his head while answering Ling Shaonan's question. When Xiao Shaoqiu let go of his arms around Ling Shaonan's waist, he was suddenly startled. Two blushes rose up on his delicate face, and he lowered his head shyly:

"Third brother, your clothes..."

Hearing this, Ling Shaonan was startled for a moment, then he realized it as soon as he glanced at himself, and smiled bitterly to himself. Indeed, during these three months, he had lived like a primitive man, picking wild fruits or picking wild fruits when he was hungry.

You hunt some small animals to satisfy your hunger, and when you are thirsty, you just drink a handful of mountain spring water. It is a completely self-sufficient life. How can you have time to take care of yourself?

Today's Ling Shaonan's clothes were scorched by the overflowing thunder and lightning as soon as his soul entered this body. Within three months, they were hung into strands of rags by the dense branches in the mountain forest.

There is absolutely no way to put a strong body

With his body blocked, he was even worse than a beggar. In addition, the hair on his head that had not been cut for months had grown to more than half a foot long and was draped randomly on his shoulders. Fortunately, he washed it in the river before going home.

, otherwise it would be weird if it doesn’t look fluffy and looks like an afro!

"Haha, I have been in the mountains for the past few months and have no clothes to change, so I ended up like this. I will go and clean up after I say hello to my grandparents later." Ling Shaonan scratched his head in embarrassment, and said awkwardly

Explained. Before this little girl, his calm state of mind seemed to be broken, and he could no longer remain calm.

"Well, third brother, please go see your grandparents first, and I'll find some clothes for you." After saying this with a slight bow of his head, Xiao Shaoqiu turned around and ran towards the house, his face red.

It was like a burning cloud, and there was even a little deer in my heart.

They bumped into each other recklessly: Oh my god, I actually hugged my third brother just now! He is so tall now, he seems to be stronger than before, and he looks like an adult! Ah! Bah, bah, bah, what am I thinking about?

I'm so shameless, my sisters will definitely laugh at me if they find out!

Seeing Xiao Shaoqiu staggering into the house, and even almost hitting the door frame because of carelessness when entering, Ling Shaonan's face was filled with a smile. He liked this warm feeling very much, even though he was an orphan,

But the brothers and sisters he grew up with are his relatives.

Moreover, Ling Shaonan's feelings for Xiao Shaoqiu are not as simple as brother-sister affection. If you look carefully, you will find that deep in his eyes there is a rich and inextricable love and pity.

In the previous life, Ling Shaonan spent all his thoughts on Wu Yanyan. Although he had no direct contact with her, he always tried his best to understand her situation whenever he had the opportunity, and the direct consequence of this was that he ignored her.

He noticed some things that happened around him and ignored the people who had been following him silently.

Wandering in the air, after going back in time, Ling Shaonan realized that this little girl who was one year younger than him and the prettiest among the sisters had been loving him bitterly, even though he had never given her anything.

Despite the slightest concern, she never changed her original intention. Even until the year she was struck to death by lightning, the thirty-year-old girl never got married.

People are always like this. They tend to ignore the happiness within reach for a goal that is simply impossible to achieve. I owe her too much!

These thoughts flashed through Ling Shaonan's mind. When he came back to his senses, Xiao Shaoqiu had already ran into the house, smiled and shook his head. Ling Shaonan was about to tell her not to be in such a hurry, and to go see her grandparents first.

While changing clothes, he suddenly froze, his eyes staring straight at Xiao Shaoqiu's back, with only one thought in his mind: Has the wish he made before being struck to death by lightning come true? Do I really have eyes?!

Because of his trance just now, Ling Shaonan's eyes had been fixed on Xiao Shaoqiu. After just a few seconds, he suddenly found that what he saw had completely changed. What filled his eyes was no longer Xiao Shaoqiu's washed white body.

Instead of wearing old clothes, he saw a scene that he had seen in his soul body before!

At this time, in Ling Shaonan's eyes, light cyan lines as thick as a hair appeared in Xiao Shaoqiu's body. From their running routes, Ling Shaonan could tell that these thin lines represented Xiao Shaoqiu's meridians. Although they were not as thick as his own

The meridians are more than a hundred times worse than those of ordinary people, but they are undoubtedly real!

"I really have eyes and can see through the essence directly? That's great! But why can't I just see through the clothes, but also the skin and flesh? How depressing!" After confirming this, Ling Shaonan couldn't help but feel in his heart.

I thought wickedly.

However, he also knows that such an idea is quite unscrupulous, and being able to see through the essence is much better than just seeing through the appearance. Besides, after experiencing time and space travel, Ling Shaonan is no longer the superficial self he used to be.

Thinking of occupying

Taking advantage and eating some tofu will satisfy you. So, after just subconsciously muttering something in his heart, Ling Shaonan threw this idea behind his mind and started thinking excitedly about how the compensation he got after being struck by lightning could give him.

What benefits does it bring?

"Shaonan, are you back?"

Before Ling Shaonan could think for long, his thoughts were interrupted by a gentle voice filled with concealed joy. Looking up, he saw an old woman in her fifties walking towards him quickly, excitedly

His eyes were firmly locked on himself.

"Grandma, it's me, I'm back!"

Seeing the old man who raised him again after hundreds of years, Ling Shaonan's heart was filled with unspeakable excitement.

Taking two steps towards Grandma Du Meihua, Ling Shaonan fell to his knees on the ground with a thump two or three meters away from her. The admiration he had suppressed for countless years surged up like a wave, making him choke and say

Speechless.

He knelt down not only because he "left without saying goodbye for three months", but also to express his guilt. In his previous life, he was too ignorant and failed the two old people too many times.

Du Meihua's eyes were filled with tears. She stretched out her somewhat rough hands to lift Ling Shaonan up and looked him up and down: "Well, good! Just come back! My child, you have suffered a lot these past few months!"

"Why are you suffering! This kid has grown taller and stronger, and he hasn't tanned. How can he suffer? I think he is clearly enjoying the blessings!" Before Ling Shaonan could speak, a slightly rough voice came out.

It attracted his attention, and following the sound, he saw an old man about sixty years old standing in front of the door, looking at him with a smile.

The old man is not tall and his appearance is very ordinary, but he is full of a strong aura, but his overall temperament is ruined by his half-white hair. Otherwise, he should be considered a successful person.

The man is Du Meihua's husband, Yu Weiguo, who is called "Grandpa" by Ling Shaonan and other children.

"grandfather!"

The slightly teasing words filled Ling Shaonan's heart with a long-lost sense of intimacy. He could tell that there was a deep sense of care hidden under these seemingly casual words. He also felt sorry for this old man who had worked so hard to raise eight orphans.

With deep feelings from the heart.

"Okay, stop standing in the yard and go inside. Shaonan, you've just come back just in time. We've just prepared to have dinner!" The old man waved his hand, interrupting what Ling Shaonan was going to say next.

Then he turned around and walked into the house.

"Yes, let's eat first! Are Shaonan hungry? You see, grandma is confused!" Du Meihua also reacted at this time, raised her hand to wipe the moist corners of her eyes, and took Ling Shaonan's hand to walk forward.

"Uh, grandma, please go over first. My little sister went to find clothes for me. I have to change first." From the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Shaoqiu standing aside holding two pieces of clothes, Ling Shaonan said hurriedly.

"Oh, okay, it's time to change your clothes and see what they've become. Can they still be called clothes? Go quickly, change your clothes, and then tell grandma how you've been spending the past few months.

"." Du Meihua, who recovered from her excitement, noticed Ling Shaonan's "miserable condition" and hurriedly let go of his hand and pushed him in the direction of Xiao Shaoqiu.

Smiling and agreeing, Ling Shaonan took the clothes from Xiao Shaoqiu's hands, turned around and walked towards his cabin. Only then did he have time to take a good look at this place that only existed in the depths of his memory.
