A letter from Yuzhou was delivered to Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu read it over and over again greedily. With tears streaming down his face, he went to the shrine all night and burned it in front of Wen Xunxiu's spiritual tablet, and did not speak for a long time.
There is no need to say any words. This letter from home is enough to put Wen Xunxiu to rest in peace.
When the family members learned about it, they also came to kneel down one after another. They burned a lot of paper money and placed various tributes like they did on a death anniversary. Everyone in the Liu family knew that this was the knot in the old man's heart. Now that the knot in his heart has been resolved, he can finally
Got something on my mind.
It's just that the person who was kneeling was missing. When the housekeeper helped the old man out, the old man said to the housekeeper: "When the fifth grandma comes back, let her come to my room!"
When Yin Le came back, it was already midnight. She had just received the notice that the first batch of disaster relief food had been delivered to Euzhou. She was so happy that she let the Happy Building close for one day to celebrate, and she also used it in the Happy Building.
Go home after dinner.
As soon as he entered the house, the housekeeper came up to him. He smelled the smell of alcohol on Yin Le's body. The housekeeper frowned and said, "Has Fifth Grandma been drinking?"
Yin Le hummed, stepped into the house, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Fifth Grandma, please quickly change your clothes and go see the old man. The old man has been waiting for you all night," the housekeeper said.
Yin Le drank a few too many drinks and was a little tipsy. Hearing what the butler said, he asked again: "What are you waiting for me for? Is there something urgent?"
"It's not an urgent matter. It's just that the old lady can't see Fifth Grandma tonight, so he probably doesn't want to sleep." The housekeeper thought that Yin Le was unwilling to go, so he quickly became more worried.
Yin Lehui turned to Mo Yan and said, "Go into the house and let Mr. Wu go to bed first. Tell him that I will take him out for an outing tomorrow."
"Okay!" Mo Yan responded and left.
The housekeeper said: "Fifth grandma can change her clothes first."
Yin Le said: "No need!" After saying that, he took the butler away while he was still drunk.
The charcoal stove was lit in the old man's house, and it was very warm inside. The windows were slightly open, and a cool breeze blew in. The candlesticks were covered with gauze, and the bright candlelight was cast in a soft color.
The old man was sitting on the couch, holding a book in his hand, and a cup of steaming tea on the red lacquered table. He looked a little happy and relaxed. He kept looking up at the door, waiting for the sound of footsteps.
, he immediately stood up and went to open the curtain with steady steps. When he saw Yin Le entering the room, he quickly greeted: "Quick, come here and warm yourself up."
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Yin Le sped up and came to him to support him and asked, "What are you so happy about?"
The old man ordered the butler to be outside the door. When the door was closed, he turned back and shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The butler pushed the door open and asked respectfully: "Does the old master have any other instructions?"
The old man said: "I ordered the kitchen to make two side dishes, and asked my grandma to drink two cups with me!"
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Still drinking? Grandma Wu has already come back from drinking."
Yin Le said: "It doesn't matter, I just want to have fun tonight, so go ahead and do it. Warm the wine and serve it first."
When the housekeeper heard what Yin Le said, he had no choice but to go ahead.
The old man bent down to bring a small stool, and then sat on the couch with his feet on the small stool. It looked very funny, but his posture was very comfortable.
Yin Le had never seen such a naughty old man before, and couldn't help but smile warmly.
The old man came over and said softly: "I'm in a good mood today."
He actually looked like a child, his expression was somewhat similar to Shou Tou when he was naughty in the past, and Yin Le couldn't help but feel a little warm.
"Yeah!" Yin Le probably knew why he was happy. He thought he would be happy before, but he didn't expect that he would be so happy and childish.
"If Xunxiu knew, she would be so happy!" A warm smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth, and there was long affection and traces of reminiscence in his eyes.
The butler warmed the wine at this moment, poured a glass for the two of them, and then left.
After drinking a few drinks, the old man felt a little overwhelmed. He pulled Yin Le and said to her: "Xunxiu is the best woman I have ever seen. She has been sick for many years and she often made soup for me. I owe her all my life."
"A lot, but before she died, she told me that marrying me was the greatest happiness in her life. But she has never enjoyed any happiness at all."
Yin Le smiled slightly, "She loves you very much."
"I know!" the old man said proudly. After a pause, he said sadly, "When she left me, I promised to give her the best life. I wanted her to enjoy all the glory and wealth, and I wanted her to return home in fine clothes.
, I want her to be the pride of the whole clan. I did it, but she can’t wait.”
Yin Le tasted the bitterness in his tone. She thought of the torture and longing she endured day and night during the days when she was looking for the devil. She suddenly felt a feeling for the old man, as if she was a fallen person in the world. She patted the old man.
He raised his shoulder and said boldly: "She knows that she is probably always by your side and never far away. Do you want to see her? I can help you, I will let her come to see you."
But the old man really believed it. He took Yin Le's hand, his eyes were as big as bells, and his voice trembled, "Really? Really? Can you really let me see her?"
Yin Le regretted saying it. Not to mention the separation of yin and yang, Wen Xunxiu had been dead for so long, so she probably had a place to go, because she had never seen Wen Xunxiu's soul since she came to the Liu family. However, Wen Xunxiu was
Even if a person who dies has not been reincarnated, she cannot wander around the world. Therefore, assuming that she has no place to go yet, it is okay to invite her up. I am afraid that she has already been reincarnated and will not be able to come up again.
Seeing the expectation and enthusiasm on the old man's face, Yin Le couldn't bear to let him down. She hesitated and said, "I can only do my best, but I may not really be able to see it."
"Okay, okay, I know, I know!" the old man said repeatedly.
Naturally, it was impossible for Yin Le to invite him by herself. She said, "Do you still remember the Taoist priest Xuan Jizi who came to our house to exorcise evil spirits? It is said that he can connect yin and yang. I will secretly invite him to my house tomorrow."
"Really? He can really connect yin and yang? Why didn't I listen to you before? If I had known earlier, I would have asked him to invite Xiu Xiu to come up on my behalf." The old man stood up and said excitedly, relying on his drunkenness, "I won't wait until tomorrow.
Yes, now I will immediately order the butler to invite you."
Seeing how impatient he was, Yin Le thought for a while and said, "That's all, you know my identity as the leader of Yufeng Sect anyway, so I might as well let you know more about it."
The old man looked at her doubtfully, "What other identity do you have?"
Yin Le sat cross-legged on the couch, closed his eyes and remained silent.
After a while, a cold air suddenly appeared in the room. Yin Le suddenly opened his eyes. With a flick of his sleeves, all the candlelight in the room was extinguished, making it pitch black.
