The old man's originally dull eyes suddenly became alert at this moment, and he ignored them, turned his head and shouted inside: "Master, Master, the Master has news, Master..."
Not long after, footsteps came from inside.
An old man who looked to be at least sixty years old ran over, even a little out of breath, "Yuanshengyuansheng..."
Looking at the white hair on the old man's head, Chen Yang's heart trembled.
He even wanted to turn around and leave for a moment, because he came here to deliver a very unfortunate news to them.
A little cruel!
"Where is Yuansheng?" The old man was a little disappointed when he didn't see Li Qiu's beard.
"It's him, it's him!" The old gatekeeper pointed at Chen Yang and said, "Master, it's him."
Master Li looked at Chen Yang.
"Uncle!" Chen Yang clasped his fists.
"Who are you?"
"I am Li Yuansheng's friend!" Chen Yang said in a low voice, "I... am here to hand you something."
As he spoke, he took off his backpack and took out a jar inside.
"This is Brother Li's remains."
Mr. Li looked at the jar, opened his mouth, and then fainted.
"Master!" Everyone in the house was shocked.
Chen Yang stepped forward quickly and checked his pulse. "It's okay. I just got a fright suddenly. It's a bit hard to accept. I'll wake up after lying down for a while."
"Come in, come in quickly!" the old gatekeeper greeted them, "Stop standing outside and come in quickly. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it later after we come in."
After inviting them in, the old gatekeeper arranged a place for them to stay.
Because Mr. Li had already passed out and had not yet woken up, they could only wait for Mr. Li to wake up.
Tian Lin and Chen Yang both meant the same thing, it was too cruel.
Mr. Li has not seen his son for so many years. Now he finally hopes for some news about his son, but in the end he only waits for a skeleton.
Do you think he can't be sad?
But things in the world are like this, and things are often not as expected.
It wasn't until dinner time in the evening that the housekeeper, the old gatekeeper, came to look for them and said, "Guys, come with me. Let's have a meal."
The three of them immediately followed.
When they got there, they saw that Mr. Li and what seemed to be Mrs. Li were sitting there waiting for them.
It's just that they both looked sad.
After seeing Chen Yang and the others arriving, Mr. Li stood up and said to Chen Yang, "Please sit down!"
Sat down.
Chen Yang and the others introduced themselves.
As for the little beggar, he didn't say a word and just sat there looking at the dishes.
"Thank you so much!" Mr. Li didn't mind, and said with a strong smile, "I have troubled you to go all the way to bring his ashes back. At least he can return to his family. Thank you very much."
"You're welcome!" Chen Yang sighed in his heart, shook his head and said, "These are just what I should do."
"Can I ask, what happened?" Mrs. Li burst into tears, "We have been looking forward to his return for so many years, but we never thought that the person we were looking forward to coming back was...
That’s it, why did my son become like this!”
Chen Yang took a deep breath and told what happened at that time.
Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, there was a notice after all, and it was easy to analyze it based on Li Qiubeard's character.
When the two heard this, they burst into tears.
"Actually, Brother Li separated from me just because he wanted to go home to see you. He also asked me to come over to see him next time, but I didn't expect... I should have come back with him, and maybe something like this wouldn't happen.
"
"No wonder you, no wonder you..." Mr. Li burst into tears, "It's his destiny to be like this, it's his destiny to be like this."
As he spoke, Mr. Li shed tears again.
Losing a child in old age is a pain that others cannot understand.
Chen Yang remained silent and did not speak.
After a while, the couple came to their senses and had a meal together.
"Since you are a good friend of Yuan Sheng, since you are here, please stay a few more days." After dinner, Mr. Li said, "Take some time to tell me about Yuan Sheng's experience outside these years. We
Would love to hear it.”
Chen Yang was a little helpless. In fact, he and Li Qiubeard had not known each other for a long time. Of course, after they met, it could be said that they felt like old friends at first sight.
"Okay!" He couldn't refuse such a thing, so Chen Yang could only agree.
But seeing that the little beggar seemed to want to say something, he knew it was not the right place to say it, so he remained silent.
After eating, we returned to the wing.
"Didn't you say you wanted to come back to our town with me to have a look?" After arriving here, the little beggar couldn't bear it any longer.
Chen Yang glanced at Tian Lin and said, "Why don't you go back with him and have a look there first? I...you know, people said that, I definitely can't leave. I have to talk to him again."
Tian Lin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take him away tomorrow, and you can stay here for a few more days. Anyway... it's quick anyway, I'll be back in two days at most."
"OK!"
The little beggar breathed a sigh of relief.
The next day, Tian Lin said something to Master Li and the others, and left with the little beggar, while Chen Yang continued to stay here.
Mr. Li seemed to be in better spirits today, so Chen Yang told what they knew.
After listening, Mr. Li sat on the stone stairs and was silent for a long time.
After a while, he said: "It's something he can do. Hey, I shouldn't let him read those idle books and listen to those storytellers' nonsense."
Chen Yang remained silent and did not speak.
"When he was a kid, when his mother and I would scold the servants, he would tell us not to scold them like that. We are all human beings. Even if we don't do well, I can say it, but I can't scold them like that. When I was young, our servants were
Huan and the others are all well-fed and well-clothed, because... because Yuansheng is here, he said that since he has entered our house, he will treat them as family members, so all the servants in our family have a good relationship with him.
"
"As he got older, he began to become restless. I wanted him to be a dandy, but he refused to do so. Instead, he became the enemy of the dandies, saying that he would do chivalry and righteousness, otherwise, he would
I will not beat up Miao Zhu’s son. I spent money to settle the matter and let him bow his head, but in the end... it still didn’t work out. I regret it a little."
"What do you regret?"
"I shouldn't let him lower his head like this. If he doesn't want to lower his head, then he won't. But I insist on holding his head and asking him to apologize to others. I was wrong, Yuan Sheng, dad.
Wrong!"
Chen Yang fell silent again.
"Old man, actually Brother Li doesn't blame you. On the contrary, he feels very sorry for you."
Mr. Li covered his face with his hands, and the sound of sobbing came from inside.
"He doesn't blame me, I blame myself!" After a long time, Mr. Li murmured again.
