Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei were escorted into the Ye Family's residence. In fact, this residence had already reached the date of renovation, but Old Man Ye had always been unwilling. He wanted to preserve its original flavor and atmosphere.
Outside, some influential people in Yanjing all came over. Hearing that the descendants of the Xu Family were here to visit, everyone came to take a look. With this relationship, the Ye Family could at least guarantee that it wouldn't decline for the next 100 years!
As for the other four families, they were more or less on the decline.
And because of his relationship with Lan Ting, Zhou Zhen had steadily developed as a chess piece of the Zhou Family. What kind of person was Lan Ting? Putting aside her identity as Elder Ye's goddaughter, just the fact that she was the only relative recognized by the emperor was enough!
And Elder Zhou's long-range strategy from back then finally paid off today. The other three families regretted their decision.
In the easternmost room of the courtyard house, on that wooden bed, an old man so old that it was hard to tell just how old he was.
In the past few years, the four elders younger than him all left one by one. Only he was unwilling to close his eyes.
When Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei stepped into the room, Minister Ye said to the old man on the bed, "Dad, look who's here."
Xu Xiaoming looked very much like Xu Cheng, and many people would see Xu Cheng's childish look on his face.
However, this old man wasn't stupid. When he saw Xu Xiaoming, he was indeed very excited, but then he weakly shook his head. "It's not him, not that brat."
Xu Xiaoming smiled. "Grandpa is wise. My name is Xu Xiaoming, and the brat you are talking about is my dad."
The old man was shocked, and then he immediately became happy. "Who did you say you are? That brat's son? "
Xu Lei smiled. "There's also me, I'm his daughter."
"Hey, come here, come to Grandpa. Quick, let Grandpa see." At that moment, Elder Ye's spirit exploded with unprecedented light. He wanted to stand up with one hand, but he still needed Auntie Lan and the others to help him up. Elder Ye couldn't even straighten his spine.
Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei sat beside Elder Ye, and the latter couldn't help but scold, "Where's that brat? Why didn't he come to see me? "
"Dad, he said he would come to see you. Don't worry." Xu Lei rubbed Old Man Ye's withered hand.
Old Man Ye burst into tears for no reason. Everyone was shocked.
"Old Master, why are you crying? Don't be emotional. Your body is fractured and can't stand up. "
"I won't die. I'll wait for that brat to come. I have a lot of things to say to him. None of you are qualified to talk to me. Only he can satisfy me in this life. No one can replace him. I'll wait for him to come."
"Okay, then wait for dad, okay? Grandfather, don't get excited." Xu Xiaoming patted Old Master Ye's chest.
"Come, I want to take a picture with my two grandsons." Grandfather Ye didn't forget to take a picture with Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei even though he was old and disrespectful.
Ye Xiu nodded his head: "Then how about a family photo?"
At this moment, a deep voice rang out around them. "If I'm not in the family portrait, can it be called a family portrait?"
Everyone was stunned.
Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei definitely recognized Xu Cheng's voice. Both of them were ecstatic.
"Dad, it's Dad!" Xu Lei shouted joyfully.
This time, everyone in the courtyard was shocked, and they all excitedly searched for traces of that person. It had been more than 20 years. Ever since the structure of the world changed, he hadn't appeared for more than 20 years.
Everyone thought that he was dead. Otherwise, how could he be willing to let go of the power that was within his reach?
The reason why the clown was great wasn't because he overturned the world, but because he gave it back to people after owning the world.
Just when everyone was frantically searching for Xu Cheng's shadow, in the sky, as if particles were slowly gathering, Xu Cheng appeared in the sky.
It had been more than 20 years, and Xu Cheng looked more mature and reserved than before. His brows were filled with the vicissitudes of life, and his eyes revealed that he had no desires and was indifferent.
He was wearing plain peasant clothes, and he didn't even shave his beard. His hair was still the same as before. However, he gave off a very clean feeling.
This kind of cleanliness came from his lack of desires and from his fearlessness.
It was a kind of ethereal state.
When he slowly descended, everyone around him subconsciously took a few steps back. From the entrance of the courtyard to the east, a wide path was directly spread out.
After the first person slightly bowed, everyone behind him, regardless of age or gender, bowed to show their respect.
Xu Cheng walked into the courtyard step by step. Looking around, he still retained the appearance of the past. He sighed and said, "It's still the same scenery, the flowers and trees, but the people are no longer human."
At the door, Ye Xiu rushed out. Other than him, Lin Dong and Luo Yi also rushed out. The three of them looked at him with slightly red eyes.
Time flew by, and they were all middle-aged.
But the brotherly love of the past was still there, and the years felt like it was yesterday.
"Big Brother Cheng …" Especially Luo Yi, he choked with sobs and didn't know what to say.
"It's a happy occasion to see you again. Why are you crying? Is this still Luo Yi? "Xu Cheng chuckled.
"Although my body is old, my blood hasn't turned cold yet!" Luo Yi said word by word.
Lin Dong immediately knelt down on both knees. In front of everyone, he kowtowed heavily. "Your disciple didn't even have the time to kowtow to you before you left. I owe you a new lease of life in this lifetime! Master, thank you. From a rebellious teenager to the god of war Lin Dong, everything is because I met you! "
Xu Cheng helped him up and said with a smile, "I also feel gratified and proud to have you as my disciple. All these years, you didn't let me down and didn't bring shame to the title of my disciple. God of war, you are worthy of it."
Lin Dong actually started crying. All the praise and titles from everyone else were not as useful as his master's affirmation.
Ye Xiu also looked at Xu Cheng with red eyes and didn't say a word. He just felt like he really wanted to beat him up.
"Marriage, kids, these are things I left behind. How about we drink together later?" Xu Cheng said to Ye Xiu.
Only then did Ye Xiu roll his eyes. "Do I look like someone who cares?"
"But you really do look like you want to beat me up." Xu Cheng smiled, and then he strode into the East House while loudly shouting, "Old man, I'm here. Are you satisfied with this world? This is the painting I want to show you, the one that belongs to me! "
Almost everyone in Yan Jing saw the Emperor's crazy, heroic, and carefree look. They didn't know why, but they were all infatuated by his handsome back view.
