(A certain Ye has gone home, a certain Huo has left his home)
"Chen 'er, go and see your grandfather first. After your accident, he always believed that it was because of him that you lost your life. He was in so much pain and self-blame that he resigned from everything three years ago. He is no longer in the court and spends all his time raising flowers and grass. Now that you're back, he can finally … "Thinking of Ye Nu, Ye Wei's heart ached.
Ye Wuchen nodded. "Father, let's go together."
The layout of Ye Nu's small courtyard was relatively simple, but it was obviously much quieter than Ye Wuchen remembered. After walking in, there was no one in sight, but he could hear all kinds of birds chirping.
Ye Nu was sitting on a hardwood chair, concentrating on feeding a bird in the cage. He ignored Ye Wei and Ye Wuchen's approach. Ye Wei bent over and said in a low voice, "Father."
"What's the matter?" Ye Nu didn't even raise his head and said flatly. At this moment, he was much older than Ye Wuchen remembered. After not seeing him for three years, he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He couldn't help but wonder whether he had brought more benefits or more harm to the Yeh family after entering the Yeh family. For an old man like Ye Nu who had no desires, the greatest harm in the world was not death, but the torture of family.
"Grandpa, I'm back." Feeling guilty, Ye Wuchen called out in a very soft voice. He was afraid that his voice would be too loud and startle the old man.
Ye Nu's entire body trembled. His hands and body froze in place, unable to move. That soft call made him unable to believe his ears. He just stood there in a daze, as if time had suddenly stopped.
Ye Wei felt gratified in his heart, but more than that, he felt sour and bitter. In the past three years, how did his father, who was in the center of great pain, self-blame, and regret, get through? Every time he saw it, his heart would twitch in pain.
Ye Nu raised his head and looked at Ye Wuchen with eyes that were constantly flickering and trembling. At this moment, he was once again unable to believe his eyes. Old General Ye, who had been in the military for half of his life, was feared by countless people, respected and admired by countless people, had completely lost his usual pressure and calmness at this moment. His dirty old eyes began to gradually become blurred, and his throat seemed to be stuck. His lips trembled, but not a single word came out, not a single sound.
"Father, Chen'er is back! He didn't die! Chen'er didn't die! Back then, he fell into Death Abyss, but he didn't die. Instead, he came back alive, and he's right in front of you now! Father, Chen'er isn't dead! " In Ye Nu's ears, Ye Wei shouted with all his might. He was reminding his father that everything was not an illusion, but at the same time, he was also releasing the infinite joy and excitement in his heart. Website
Ye Wuchen also repeated, "Grandpa, I'm back."
As if waking up from a dream, Ye Nu's five spirits and six mortal forms returned to his body. He stretched out his old hand that had begun to become thin and withered in the past three years, nodded his head, and said with an extremely weak voice, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back …"
He suddenly slapped his forehead and wiped his eyes hard, in order to shake off the overflowing old tears in his eyes, and to make his vision clearer. What was in front of him was not an illusion, nor was it someone else's disguise. The only Sword God's Ring on his hand and Ningxue beside him were iron-clad proof. It was not an illusion, but it was as unreal as an illusion. He murmured, "… Do you hate grandpa …"
The deep regret and self-blame had been a heart-wrenching pain for the past three years. If he had not promised and personally persuaded Ye Shuiyao to marry into the Dafeng Kingdom, all of this would not have happened. This was the biggest mistake he had made in his life. If it was not because of this, Ye Wuchen would not have died in the Dafeng Kingdom because of Ye Shuiyao. He had always thought that Ye Wuchen's death was a punishment from the heavens for abandoning his family. For three whole years, he had been tormented by heart-wrenching pain. In these three years, he felt like he had aged ten years.
"Oh? Why would I hate grandpa? "Ye Wuchen asked.
He smiled and said, "In Tenryū Province, everyone has always lived and worked in peace and contentment. There are very few beggars, and even bandits and robbers are very rare. Despite the covetous eyes of the Dafeng Kingdom and the repeated attacks and harassment over the years, this is still the case. Who is to blame? It's grandpa. Grandpa may feel that this is disgraceful, but without grandpa, even the current emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom might not be the current emperor. Grandpa spent half of his life fighting, and even his marriage was on the battlefield. Yet, he saved countless people of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom and brought peace and happiness to them. Such integrity, such great achievements, such prestige, who in Tenryū Province can compare? Throughout the whole of Tenryū Province, there is no one that grandpa feels guilty or indebted to. I am proud to have a grandpa like this, so why would I hate him? "
Ye Wuchen sighed and said seriously, "I know grandpa's pain these years. In fact, grandpa, you are really wrong. You should not regret it, and you should not hate yourself. Back then, you chose the safety of the country over the safety of your family. That's admirable. But I am just a selfish person who would rather disregard the safety of the kingdom. If you want to talk about hate, I only hate myself. I hate that my impulsiveness made my father, grandpa, and many other people sad for me. Only grandpa can hate me, so what qualifications do I have to hate grandpa? I only hope that grandpa can forgive me for my big mistake, and live happily every day in the future, so that the guilt in my heart will be less. "
A smile appeared on Ye Wei's face. He believed that these words would be enough to untie the knot in Ye Nu's heart. Sure enough, Ye Nu was stunned for a while, and with tears in his eyes, he laughed loudly, "As expected of my grandson, you are always so eloquent, making people unable to refute, hahahaha … …"
In the past three years, this was the first time that Ye Wei saw Ye Nu laughing so carefreely. Both he and Ye Wuchen revealed a happy smile at the same time. With a loud laugh, this old man finally walked out of the shackles of self-blame, the abyss of pain, and everything that tortured him disappeared.
Walking out of Ye Nu's courtyard, Wang Wenshu had already asked people to prepare a table full of Ye Wuchen's favorite dishes at the fastest speed. Seeing them come out, she hurriedly greeted them and said with concern, "Chen'Er, Cher, you just came back, so you must be hungry. I just prepared some food, come eat quickly, and talk to me while you're at it."
She really wanted to know what Ye Wuchen had experienced in the past three years, and Ye Wei, who was behind him, also wanted to know. Indeed, there were many people who had fallen into the Death Abyss or tried to enter with ropes, but none of them survived. The depth of the Death Abyss was immeasurable. Dafeng Country had specially made a rope that was three thousand meters long to hang a rock to test the depth, but they had not been able to reach the bottom. Such a terrifying depth, it was really a miracle to be able to survive.
But then again, how many miracles had happened to Ye Wuchen?
"I haven't eaten home food for a long time, I really miss it … Before that, I want to go see my sister first." After saying that, he turned around and looked in the direction of Ye Shuiyao's courtyard. Now, the news of his return was probably known by the entire Sky Dragon City, and the Yeh family was even more excited because of this, but Ye Shuiyao had not appeared, as if she did not know.
"Yes, yes, quickly go see Yao'Er, she has been all these years … She will definitely be overjoyed to see you." Wang Wenshu hurriedly nodded in response.
"I will go with Cher and Oculum. Mother, can you personally cook a few dishes for me?" Ye Wuchen said with a smile.
How could she refuse this request, so she happily agreed. Before Ye Wuchen left, he suddenly turned around and asked, "Where is Ye Wuyun?"
He had always called Ye Wuyun by his name. If it was possible, he didn't even want to call him by his name.
"He went to the north of the city to buy things in the morning, and he will be back soon. He should know that you are back by now, "Wang Wenshu replied.
"Buy things?" The corner of Ye Wuchen's mouth curled up, and he said in a seemingly serious yet mocking manner, "He even takes care of the work of the servants. He is really diligent."
Wang Wenshu did not hear the sarcasm in his words, and she nodded with gratification. "All these years without you, the family has been gloomy and gloomy. Everything has been taken care of by Yun Er. He is so busy every day that it makes people worry if he will be exhausted. I told him not to worry so much, but he always said that he would not feel at ease leaving it to someone else. This child … "
Ye Wuchen nodded with a smile, and he was pushed by Ningxue and Oculum to the direction of Ye Shuiyao's courtyard. Ye Wei stared at his back, deep in thought. After not seeing him for three years, Ye Wuchen was already in his twenties. Although he was sitting, it was obvious that he had grown a lot taller. Although his appearance had not changed much, it was obvious that he had matured. However, the feeling that he gave Ye Wei was very different. As for what it was, he could not understand it at the moment, it was just a feeling.
The layout of Ye Shuiyao's courtyard had not changed at all. It had not changed for many years.
This time, Ye Wuchen went directly to the bedroom. When he opened the door, a delicate fragrance wafted over, but there was no sound in the room. When he was pushed into the room and the door was closed, an extremely beautiful figure walked to his side. She bent down and hugged his neck, and her plump red lips lightly pressed on his face. "Little Chen, you are finally willing to come home."
"Big sister, aren't you afraid of being seen by Mother and the others?" Ye Wuchen touched the place where he had been kissed, and said with a smile that was not a smile.
Ye Shuiyao liked it when he called her big sister. She believed that they were not real siblings, but every time Ye Wuchen called her that, she would feel a sense of satisfaction and joy in her heart, as if she had broken through a taboo obstacle.
"I'm not afraid." Ye Shuiyao smiled lightly. Ye Wuchen once said that when she smiled, she was at her most beautiful. In front of her beautiful smile, the most beautiful scenery in the world would be overshadowed. Therefore, she began to get used to showing a smile in front of him that no one else would ever want to see. From the day he came back, she had no reason to be unhappy.
"Then big sister can kiss me in front of Mother later." Ye Wuchen said with a smile.
Ye Shuiyao blushed and hit him lightly.
