Hua Nongying was also shocked when she heard about this ancient organization that had dominated the world for hundreds of years.
The last time we were in South Beach, the Arbitration Office had just sent five elite arbitrators, and now less than half a month has passed, and yet another expert has arrived.
"Ignore him!"
Ye Chen hugged Hua Nongying and turned around swiftly.
"Let's go worship Aunt He!"
He never cared about the son of the judge of the Arbitration Institute. Along the way, there were countless people who wanted to kill him, but who had actually succeeded?
With his current level of cultivation, if the sixteen trial kings of the Arbitration Institute had not personally taken action, he would not take the rest of them seriously at all.
After leaving the airport, Ye Chen and Hua Nongying took a country bus all the way to a small mountain village located at the junction of Yunchuan and Chuan.
The village is called Wangzhu. The bamboos here grow tall and upright and are full of vitality. Every household uses huge bamboo tubes to build houses, which are warm in winter and cool in summer.
And no matter how it is cut down, the bamboos here will grow crazy after a rainy night, hence the name Wangzhu.
Standing at the entrance of Wangzhu Village, looking at the towering green bamboos on the side mountain road, Ye Chen's eyes were in a trance.
He pointed to a lush bamboo forest and said quietly: "Xiaoying, there... is the place where I fell from the capital and was seriously injured and fell into coma!"
"Aunt Xiao also found me there and rescued me!"
Hua Nongying nodded gently, her movements gentle, and she felt sour at the thought of a ten-year-old child seriously injured and lying in the bamboo forest.
Ye Chen held Hua Nongying's hand and walked slowly into the village. In and outside the village, many uncles and aunts unconsciously turned their heads to look at these two strange young men and women.
Ye Chen and Hua Nongying met in the village this time. In order to be low-key, they were dressed very ordinary. However, even though the clothes were simple, one of them was tall and handsome, and the other was extremely beautiful. They were indeed a talented man and a beautiful woman, and their temperament was consistent with these simple people.
The villagers in the countryside were out of place, and many people were secretly wondering which family they were related to.
Ye Chen had not lived in the village for long, and most of these faces were unfamiliar faces, but he still smiled back at them one by one. The two of them walked through the village and walked towards the high slope behind the village, where Xiao He's cemetery was.
"Huh? Someone arrived first?"
Arriving at Gaopo, Ye Chen was suddenly startled.
Xiao He's cemetery used to be just an ordinary small mound with a tombstone standing in front of it, but now the entire cemetery has been exquisitely renovated, with cement walls built and meticulously decorated.
Three people were already standing next to Xiao He's grave. Two of them were in their forties or fifties and were obviously a couple, while the other was in her early twenties and was a beautiful-looking woman with a bit of grace and tenderness.
The three of them carefully cleaned Xiao He's grave and were visiting the altar for offerings.
The young woman accidentally raised her head and saw Ye Chen standing not far behind. She suddenly said strangely: "You are..."
When the two middle-aged couples heard this, they turned around with astonishment on their faces.
Ye Chen glanced at the young woman and showed a smile.
"Sister Xing, it's me, Xiaochen!"
"Xiaochen?" The young woman was slightly startled, searching for the name in her memory, which seemed a little vague.
But the middle-aged couple behind them had already reacted suddenly.
"Xiaochen? Is it you? Are you back?"
The middle-aged woman walked quickly towards Ye Chen, a little unbelievable.
"Third Aunt, it's me. I'm coming back to pay homage to Aunt Xiao!"
Ye Chen smiled and nodded, bowing his head to the middle-aged woman.
This middle-aged woman, named Wang Gui, was the third eldest child in the family. Xiao He was kicked out of the door by Mr. Xiao and came to Wangzhu Village alone and pregnant. In the village, the person who took care of her the most was Wang Gui.
Ye Chen was rescued by Xiao He and lived in Xiao He's home. Wang Gui often sent some food and clothing to the house and took great care of her. Therefore, Ye Chen always remembered her fresh and was secretly grateful.
Especially when he saw that there were not many weeds around Xiao He's tomb and the surrounding area was clean, obviously because Wang Gui's family cleaned it frequently, Ye Chen was even more moved.
As for the middle-aged man next to him, he is Wang Gui's husband Wu Chunfu. The young woman is also somewhat familiar with Ye Chen. They used to play together a few years ago. She is their eldest daughter Wu Yuexing.
"It's really Xiaochen!"
When Wang Gui heard Ye Chen's name, he no longer doubted him and patted Ye Chen on the shoulder.
"Hey, you kid, you just came back the year before last, and you haven't been seen for more than a year now. Now you are finally back, and you brought such a beautiful girl back with you!"
Her eyes paused slightly, and tears flashed across her eyes.
"Oh, what a pity, your Aunt Xiao can't see it anymore!"
Ye Chen sighed secretly and nodded slightly to Hua Nongying. They both lit three sticks of incense and knelt respectfully in front of Xiao He's grave.
"Aunt Xiao, I'm back to see you!"
"Everything is going well for Mengyao now. She has become a star and is working hard towards her dream. The daughter you taught is now a household name!"
Ye Chen pulled Hua Nongying beside him and said softly: "Aunt Xiao, this is Xiaoying, my future wife. I specially brought her back this time to show you Aunt Xiao!"
After saying that, Ye Chen bowed to the ground and hit his head on the cement stone, making a heavy muffled sound!
Wang Gui and her husband and daughter were standing not far away, looking at Ye Chen and Hua Nongying, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, when Xiaohe was here, she regarded Xiaochen as her biological son, and depending on her intentions, she had the idea of letting Mengyao and Xiaochen be together. It's a pity that the world has changed, and now Xiaochen has brought a
Such a beautiful girl is back, but she is even prettier than Mengyao. It seems that Xiaohe's wish cannot be fulfilled!"
Wu Chunfu next to him heard this and glared at her: "You are a big boss, what are you talking about? Xiaohe regards Xiaochen as his biological son, and Mengyao is her biological daughter, so Xiaochen and Mengyao are brother and sister.
How can any brother and sister be together?"
Wang Gui was originally a village girl, so she didn't care about so much. She immediately argued: "What's the point? The two of them are not related by blood. What kind of brothers and sisters are they? What's wrong with getting married and having children together?"
Wu Chunfu was choked immediately and didn't know how to answer. Wu Yuexing on the side blinked his eyes and glanced back and forth at Ye Chen and Hua Nongying, feeling a bit strange in his heart.
Back then, she, Ye Chen, Gu Mengyao, and her little sister often played around in Wangzhu, and they were very close to each other.
She is the oldest among the four, two years older than Ye Chen, but she secretly pays attention to Ye Chen, her younger brother. The depth and vicissitudes of life that Ye Chen inadvertently revealed made her unconsciously attracted by him.
attract.
She had also imagined that when everyone grew up, Ye Chen would marry her to a matchmaker and wear red makeup.
But now, eight years later, everything has changed. Ye Chen already has his own partner, and she is about to have her own destination, which makes her secretly feel regretful.
Although Ye Chen has been away for eight years, she has thought of Ye Chen from time to time in the past few years. Now that she sees Ye Chen growing up into a handsome and handsome young man, her inner feelings are even more overflowing.
But thinking that she was already engaged to someone and the engagement ceremony was tomorrow, she had no choice but to look away and try to calm down her emotions.
"Third Aunt, Uncle Wu!"
Ye Chen and Hua Nongying finished worshiping Xiao He and then turned to Wang Gui.
"When I came back the year before last, Aunt Xiao's cemetery was still not like this, but this time it has been completely renovated. Did you pay for it?"
When Wu Chunfu and his wife heard this, they immediately waved their hands.
"We just come over and clean it from time to time when we have time. We didn't pay for the renovation of this tomb. A team of very well-established people started the work a few months ago!"
"I heard from them that they are from Xiao He's natal family!"
