"Thank you." Zhou Yening took the popsicle and smiled gently, then put the popsicle into his mouth.
The cold temperature instantly filled their mouths, bringing them a hint of coolness in this hot sun.
"I haven't eaten popsicles for a long time, thank you very much."
She suddenly envied a life like Li Tian's, a life she had never experienced before.
When you are abroad and have ambitions for a distant place, and when you return home, you are accompanied by your relatives. This is the most ordinary and yet the most extraordinary life, right?
It's a pity that everyone's life is destined to be different, and she may not be able to realize it in her lifetime.
Li Tian immediately winked at him and smiled.
"You're welcome, you should, hehe."
Zhou Yening withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and bit down another piece of broken ice.
"I just heard what the owner of that small shop said: He's here again for free? What do you mean?"
Zhou Yening asked in confusion as she ate the popsicle in her hand.
"Have it?"
Li Tian was stunned. He actually forgot that the young lady next to him was a practitioner. With such a small distance, he couldn't hide any trouble from her.
"He said welcome back, hahaha, Sister Ye Ning, you heard wrong."
But if he hears it, he won't admit it. He only needs to know about the free prostitution. It would be disgraceful to tell anyone about it.
Zhou Yening chuckled and nodded, seeing through it without saying anything, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Soon they had arrived near Li Tian's home, which was the only way to get to Feizhou.
When he returned to the village this time, Li Tian had not returned home yet.
He turned around and looked at the hut in the distance. That's all. There was no one at home anymore. If he couldn't go back, there was no point.
"Sir, do you have anything else to do?"
Zhou Yening could see what was on his mind at a glance. Was he homesick?
Li Tian quickly looked away and shook his head slightly.
"No, let's go back. We should be there before sunset."
Ergou was still injured, and he didn't know what the situation was now. He was thinking in his heart that this was the reason why he left in a hurry, otherwise he would have stayed until night after finally coming back.
"Okay, let's go."
After the two returned to Feizhou, Li Tian chose to leave directly and did not go back and forth to the graves of his grandfather and Gou Wencai.
With a slight roar, the airship left the ground and flew quickly into the sky.
Return!
Li Tian, who had already left, never expected that a person would be standing in front of his grandfather's grave at this moment.
Gou Fugui was not open at noon, but came here earlier. If Li Tian chose to come to say goodbye, he would definitely bump into him.
"Huh? When did there be a tomb here? Whose family it belongs to? It's strange, there isn't even a monument."
As soon as he arrived here, he saw a new tomb and was wondering that no one was holding funerals in the village recently.
"Forget it, never mind."
He shook his head, turned his gaze away, and looked at Grandpa Li Tian's grave.
"Uncle Li, I'm here to see you, and I haven't been here for a long time."
Saying that, Gou Fugui sat down on the ground with a smile and placed the two small jars and cups in his hands in front of the grave.
Just like in the past, whenever he had something on his mind or was upset, he would carry two jars of wine to Grandpa Li Tian's grave and have a few drinks. But usually it was at night, but today it was
Came here at noon.
He didn't care about the heat at the moment, he just wanted to express his feelings happily and happily.
"Xiaotian came back today and brought two pieces of good news. You know I can't hold it in anymore, hahaha, so I have to come and talk to you."
He opened the wine jar, poured wine into two glasses, then picked up one and drank it all in one gulp.
There was an unstoppable smile on his face, and then he picked up another cup and threw it in front of the grave.
"Xiaotian told me that he has entered a training academy, the Lingtian Academy in Lingyun City. Hey, I thought this kid in your family has a lot of potential. Look, it is true."
As he spoke, he poured more wine.
"There's one more thing that you definitely wouldn't have guessed, hehehe."
Gou Fugui's face was filled with relief. At this moment, he looked several years younger. He drank another glass of wine one after another.
"Literary talent, he also went to practice. Hahaha, Uncle Li, you didn't expect it, and he was not in a practice academy, but was taken away by an old god."
"If I say that this kid is here today, it's all thanks to you, Uncle Li. Without you, that kid Wencai would have died long ago. Uncle Li, don't worry, if this kid doesn't help Xiaotian when he gets rich in the future, I will definitely interrupt him.
Legs, hey hey hey."
"I don't know in which life this kid got the blessing and this kind of opportunity, hahaha."
"Uncle Li, I'm very happy today. Just drink a few more drinks with me. The children have grown up now and they don't need us anymore."
Speaking of this, Gou Fugui slowly suppressed his smile and turned it into a hint of loneliness.
"But this is also a good thing. There will always be a day like this."
"I just didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Oh~ It's hard to say this."
He drank one glass after another and stopped talking.
It wasn't until a long time passed that he drank almost all the jar of wine, then he slowly stopped.
"Xiaotian is very good. Wen Cai left, and he actually wanted to stay with me. Ha, although this brat is usually very naughty, he is still quite sensible at times like this."
Gou Fugui turned around and laughed again.
"But I didn't ask him to stay. Uncle Li, please don't come to me at night."
"You always left early. He had a hard time. I know that, but this kid is stronger and never tells us old guys what he has on his mind. But now it's better. He has finally grown up."
"I originally planned to save some money, and then give it to Wencai when he gets married, and then let him fend for himself. I planned to leave the shop to Xiaotian, so that he can have a livelihood in the future. No need
It seems that there is no need to worry about food and drink anymore."
"Sometimes I think that I am quite useless. I can't help the children anymore, and I have to let them worry about it. Alas~"
...
While he was talking about what he was holding in his heart, he poured himself another glass of wine. The wine was very strong, and after a while, he was already three points drunk, and then he slowly stopped.
"Hiccup~ I drank a little too much. When Wencai comes back next time, I'll ask him to come and drink with you. He can drink. I have to work in the afternoon, so I can only come to see you next time."
"When there is news about the children, I will tell you as soon as possible to save you the trouble of worrying down below."
After saying that, he stood up with difficulty, holding on to the ground, and wiped the dust off his buttocks.
He looked at the new grave not far away, picked up the remaining half jar of wine, and walked up slowly.
"Although I don't know who you are, how old you are, or what to call you, but it just so happens that there is a happy event at my home today, so come and treat you to a drink!"
Gou Fugui slowly bent down and spilled half the jar of wine in front of Gou Wencai's grave.
"Look, you don't even have a monument. It's so pitiful. There must be no one to see you off. Today's wine should be considered as my farewell for you."
He stood up and looked behind him again, then smiled.
"If I die in the future, I will be buried here and be your companion."
"Hiccup~"
Another wine burp reminded him that it was time to go back.
When he was about to turn around.
A gust of breeze came from nowhere, and it happened to blow over his cheek, blowing the white hair on his temples.
The wind was very gentle, as if a veil was blowing across his face, taking away a trace of his drunkenness.
In a daze, he seemed to hear a familiar call, no, more like a farewell.
The sound seemed to come from far away, but it seemed more like it came from right in front of me.
He couldn't help shaking his head.
"I'm really old. I'm a little drunk after just drinking so much."
With that said, he took the empty jar, turned around and went back.
Who would have thought that this was the first time that the father and son had met each other in the past two years, and who would have thought that this meeting would be like a yin and a yang.
Destiny is wonderful.
It is a bright road for people to go, and it is also an abyss for people to step into.
The bright sun hanging in the sky exudes extremely hot temperature, scorching all living beings in Lingyun City.
The only thing that can beat the heat is time.
Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, it was already evening.
Li Tian and Zhou Yening rushed back to Lingtian Academy before sunset.
"Thank you, Sister Ye Ning. I will go back now. I will trouble you along the way."
Before saying goodbye, Li Tian once again sent out his sincere thanks.
"Look, you said thank you again. This is what I should do. Besides, didn't I eat the food cooked by my aunt? It's me who wants to thank you, hehe."
Zhou Yening gently pulled her hair around her ears and smiled softly.
"Then, sir, take care, let's say goodbye."
"Don't pass."
After saying goodbye, Zhou Yening drove the flying boat and quickly disappeared in front of the college. The mission was completed and she was about to leave.
Li Tian didn't linger at the door, and ran straight into the academy.
He is going to see Ergou, this is the most important thing.
After he left, the students outside the door couldn't help but start talking.
"Whose family is this? He came to the academy in a flying boat. What a luxury!"
"I looked at the logo on the flying boat and it seemed that it belonged to the prince's family."
"The Prince's Family? That chamber of commerce is second only to the Chou Family. That's really incredible."
"I heard that this princely family only rose to prominence in the past twenty years and has reached its current status. It is understandable that the Chou family's hundreds of years of heritage cannot suppress it."
"Oh, it's great to be rich. If my family were that rich, I would drive the flying boat to the dormitory every day!"
"Okay, stop dreaming, remember that person's appearance, and don't provoke him in the future, otherwise the whole family will suffer."
As mentioned before, flying boats can also be regarded as a symbol of wealth and power. There are only a handful of families in the entire Lingyun City who are qualified to use flying boats.
Li Tian saw the message Yun Zhi sent him when he left, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Er Gou was fine.
Yun Zhi: Brother, the third brother is fine now. I took him back to the dormitory. The doctor said he will be fine after resting for a while.
Since you are already in the dormitory, let's go directly there.
With this thought in mind, he quickly ran towards the dormitory building.
Soon, he ran to the door of his room, where the house number 5508 was clearly hung.
Without much hesitation, he opened the door and entered.
What came into view was Ergou lying in his den, holding a communication device in one paw and a chicken drumstick in the other. He was laughing happily and shaking his legs.
Doesn't this look like he was seriously injured? The key is that when he heard him coming in, he didn't even raise his eyes.
"Xiao Zhi, did you buy dinner so quickly? Not bad, bring it to Master Gou, I'm just hungry." As he said that, he ate the chicken leg in his hand in one bite, without even spitting out the bones, and chewed it twice.
He swallowed it.
It turned out that Li Tian thought he was Yun Zhi, which made Li Tian feel a little funny.
He stepped through the door and immediately closed the door.
After he came in, he discovered that a large wooden barrel had appeared on the balcony at some point. He probably bought it in the past two days, but he didn't know what it was used for.
Soon he came to Ergou and stood quietly observing it.
It was almost the same as before I left. Apart from a bloated belly, there was nothing else different. There wasn't even a bandage on my body, so it looked like everything was fine.
I saw the little paws of the two dogs spread out, as if they were waiting for something to be handed to them.
Li Tian ignored it and waited for it to find out on its own.
After a while, the two dogs still didn't receive the food.
He immediately frowned.
"What's wrong, Xiaozhi? Have you forgotten what Master Dog taught you at noon? Why don't you hand the lobster to me? Do you want me to get it myself?"
Hearing what Ergou said, Li Tian sneered. It seemed that since he was absent that day, Yun Zhi was treated like a dog. There really was no tiger or monkey in the mountain to be called the king!
Thinking about Li Tian, I wanted to take action and give this stinky dog a mouthful of words.
Click, there was another sound of the door opening.
Yun Zhi walked into the dormitory carrying two large bags of things. When he saw Li Tian who had returned, his face immediately lit up.
Ergou was stunned when he saw Yun Zhi walking in, "Xiao Zhi is here, who is next to me?"
Then he quickly turned his head and looked aside.
The next moment, Ergou and Yunzhi exclaimed at the same time.
"Brother!"
"God of Plague!"
"I'm back."
Li Tian looked at Yun Zhi and smiled gently, then walked forward and took the two big bags in his hand.
Ergou, on the other hand, was so frightened that he immediately covered his mouth, "Fuck!" Damn it, he was so quick to speak, he probably didn't hear it...
