"Old man Fang, if I don't share it with you, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until that little girl gets married. At that time, I can only take this wine to your grave and sprinkle it for you to drink."
After hearing this, Fangyuan immediately laughed.
The food and wine were quickly served. Under his glare, the maids had no choice but to go outside and close the door.
Fangyuan opened the wine jar and poured a large bowl full for the two of them.
Smelling the aroma of wine overflowing from the wine bowl, he showed a look of intoxication and obsession. In an instant, the tight wrinkles seemed to relax.
"Old man Situ, this is really good wine. Just by smelling it like this, I immediately feel as if I am three years younger."
"After years of accumulation, even this sake can brew such a strong aroma. It's just like you and me. At this age, it seems that we have truly understood how to live in the human world."
"If you had not drunk such a fine wine during your lifetime, it would have been a huge regret. It would have been spilled on the grave. Drink a portion from the sky, a portion from the wind, and a portion from the earth. Whatever you can leave to me is still there.
How much can be left?”
After finishing speaking, Fangyuan picked up the wine, eyes full of intoxication, and poured it into his mouth with a small sip. His eyes were slightly closed, as if he was savoring the aroma of the wine in his mouth. His face was full of comfort and naturalness, without any worry at all.
.
This was really the first time Situ Heng had seen Old Man Fang with such an expression.
When it comes to drinking with this old man, the two of them have already had countless experiences, but this time, it is obviously different.
In the past, wine was never the focus of drinking, and drinkers did not pay too much attention to the aroma and mellowness of the wine. But now, the old man Fang in front of him is really tasting wine.
In my heart, I couldn't help but feel a strong shock.
Since the great changes in the capital, he has never had the leisure time he had in the past. At that time, Old Man Fang had just resigned and became an ordinary person. After not seeing each other for a few years, Old Man Fang actually stayed in the mansion.
Such a big change, but invisibly, it seemed that there was some gap between him and Old Man Fang.
After living all his life, he has never been convinced by this old man.
Unexpectedly, he had already reached the end of his life, but it was the old man in front of him who actually gave him some admiration.
But now, it seems that he has not reached the state of Old Man Fang at all.
In a few years, what is the difference between him and the other party?
After Old Man Fang put down his wine bowl, Situ Heng finally spoke.
"Old man Fang, I find that you seem to have changed."
"Haha..." A chuckle sounded from Fangyuan's mouth.
"Really? Old man Situ? Do you feel that I have changed?"
"Yes, I feel like you are obviously different from before."
Situ Heng said bluntly that he and Old Man Fang basically understood each other very well, and there really wasn't much that was worth hiding.
"Situ, look at me like this now?"
After finishing speaking, Fangyuan moved away from the table so that Situ Heng could see clearly.
Taking a closer look, Situ Heng was stunned for a moment.
In fact, he naturally saw it when he entered the house before.
But now, when I look at it, I feel completely different.
Old man Fang was wearing a clean and tidy underwear. The white underwear was ordinary silk, nothing special.
This is in Old Man Fang's own home, so seeing him is naturally different from outsiders.
If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid Old Man Fang would never see him again. Wearing this simple underwear to meet guests, he could completely understand that given Old Man Fang's current condition, it would definitely be very troublesome to put on a coat.
But that's it, just looking at it can instantly evoke bad feelings in your heart.
The white clothes, the head full of white hair, and the old face, no matter where he looked from, it seemed to him that he had not lived for a few days.
Death is something that everyone has to face sooner or later. Not only the old man Fang, but also himself will inevitably have such a day.
It's just that he can still move freely now, and he usually feels that his energy and energy are still very good. But looking at Old Man Fang, he realizes that death is probably not far away from him.
Life and death, this is such a painful thing.
"Situ, time flies by and this is inevitable."
"When you become bedridden, you will naturally change."
After hearing this, Situ Heng sighed, feeling very sad.
Eh...
"Maybe, to be honest with you, Old Man Fang, I sometimes feel that I should still be able to live for decades. I never thought that that day is already so close to me, and I am going on this mission.
In a few years, I'm afraid you will encounter far more troubles than what you have mentioned, right?"
After hearing this, Fangyuan nodded.
"Situ, there is no need to say everything. The results that the court cares about, and what His Highness wants is the results that I brought back from my mission. This is what I should do. It is already extraordinary that I can drag this life back.
Not easy."
"Old man Fang, if you hadn't gone on a mission, I believe you would be as energetic as me now. Do you hate the emperor?"
Situ Heng felt that maybe living another ten years might be a bit of a luxury, but living a few more years was an absolute certainty.
If it weren't for the emperor, who got old man Fang into the cabinet, he definitely wouldn't have been sent as an envoy. In this way, even if old man Fang couldn't enter the cabinet, he wouldn't end up bedridden after running around. M.
After hearing this, Fangyuan smiled and shook his head.
"Situ, you should know me well, why would you ask this?"
"I understand. You have seen that I don't have much time left, so you are afraid of death, right? But fear is okay, but you can't make yourself dizzy."
After hearing this, Situ Heng could only smile bitterly.
Maybe only Old Man Fang would say this to him.
How could such a fainting thing happen to him? It was just that when he suddenly faced death so close to a person, it was inevitable that he would have such thoughts.
"Of course I understand you, so why are you so confused?"
"I can tell, Old Man Fang, your heart has completely come together now. It's probably very rare for a person to be able to reach your level."
"It was the emperor who made you successful back then. I'm afraid you will always be grateful in your heart. Moreover, I have learned that Fang Pu has become the Chief Secretary of Dali Yuan. Compared with you, my Situ family is inferior.
You have won a lot, and now it seems that you are the biggest winner."
After hearing this, Fangyuan's face showed a look of relief.
He was very relieved about Fang Pu at this moment, and he had completely handed over the entire Fang Mansion into Fang Pu's hands.
He naturally knows what entering Dali Yuan means.
"Situ, you are still the same person as before, and you still care about these things. When you let go one day, your thoughts will completely change. Whether Fang Pu is the chief secretary of Dali Yuan, or he is an ordinary citizen.
, for me now, it is no longer that important.”
"As long as he can bring stability to the Fang family instead of disaster, this is already a very good thing."
"Situ, think about it, if one day you really have everything, and if you look back the next day and it comes with a disaster, which one would you rather see?"
