The old man was very excited, because since his wife's grandfather's generation, the Li family had ancestral precepts that this yard does not belong to the Li family, but the Li family has to take care of the yard for generations.
As long as the Li family is not destroyed, this yard cannot be abandoned!
This is the ancestral precept of the Li family, and it is the first among the ancestral precepts.
The Li family in Su Zicheng was passed down from Grandpa Tai Tai's generation, and it is clearly recorded in the Li family tree that there was a famine that year, and Grandpa Tai Tai became an orphan. It was Aunt Su, the owner of the yard, who adopted Grandpa Tai Tai.
, and from then on the Li family existed.
Moreover, with the help of Aunt Su, my great-grandfather built a huge family property in Su Zicheng and was considered a wealthy family. Unfortunately, the descendants of later generations were unworthy. After three generations, the family property was completely destroyed, and the Li family fell into decline.
Go to an ordinary person's home.
However, even so, the successive generations of the Li family have never thought about this yard, let alone touched anything in this yard, and they have to clean it several times a month. This ancestral precept has not been violated until this generation.
"Dad, you can't blame me. Look at what else we have in our family now. I'm already in my thirties and haven't married a wife yet. We can't let our Li family be like this. You and your mother are not in good health. Every day
We have to spend a lot of money to buy medicine, and I have to earn this money. How can I earn it? Besides, our sister, people know that she is from the Li family, and no matchmaker comes to the door. Our sister is not ugly, and the fat girl next door
The girls are all married off." Li Pozi argued a little aggrievedly.
"Brother, I won't marry. I will serve my parents at home." The girl who was supporting the old man said firmly.
"You bastard, let's see if I don't beat you to death."
The old man raised the crutch in one hand and hit Li Pozi. Li Pozi had obviously never been beaten before, and his movements were so deft that he dodged it in a few steps. However, the old man kept coughing due to the strenuous exercise.
stand up.
"Enough!"
Qin Yu's voice came out, and the old man stopped and looked at Qin Yu.
"Everyone, please leave."
As soon as Qin Yu said these words, the old man glanced at Mo Yongxin, seemed to have thought of something, and asked Qin Yu excitedly: "Are you Mr. Qin?"
Yes, when the old man saw Qin Yu, he thought of several stories passed down by his wife's grandfather about the owner of this yard. Among them, the most unbelievable thing for descendants like him was that his wife's grandfather said that this
Master Qin in the yard never gets old. After decades, he still looks as young as ever.
At first, the descendants didn't believe it, and no one except my wife's grandfather had ever seen Aunt Su and Master Qin in the yard. But now that they saw Mo Yongxin's appearance, the old man couldn't help but ask.
"Go out, the owner of this yard has returned."
Qin Yu did not answer, but his words were considered an answer to the old man's words.
The old man did not hesitate anymore, nodded, and said to his daughter: "Go back."
The old man left with a smile on his face. For him, it was the responsibility of the Li family to guard the yard, because without the owner of the yard, there would be no Li family and no wife.
Grandpa may have died long ago in that famine.
The old man contracted tuberculosis due to overwork during a cold winter ten years ago, and he drank medicine every day to survive.
For the old man, he even wanted to just leave, because living would only be a drag on the family, especially his daughter. His daughter is already twenty-two years old, but she still has not married, because
People learned of his existence as a burden.
However, the old man did not dare to leave, because he knew his son's temperament. If he had not suppressed it, he would have sold everything in the yard, and even the yard.
The old man cannot see that the ancestral precepts of the Li family will remain in his generation, so he must live, even if he knows that he is a drag, he still has to live like this.
But now, everything is fine, the man is back, and the Li family's mission has been completed. In this way, even if he goes down, he can explain to his wife and grandfather, and he can be worthy of the name of the Li family.
The old man left with a smile, but Qin Yu looked at the old man's back, his eyes darkened, because he could feel that at this moment, the old man's life began to drain away quickly.
The old man cannot survive this cold winter.
"You guys, still not leaving?"
When Li Pozi and another man looked at each other in Qin Yu's eyes, their hearts suddenly trembled, and then they crawled and rolled away. Even they themselves didn't know why they were so scared suddenly. They felt that they were afraid of themselves.
If you leave even one second late, you will die.
After everyone left, Qin Yu looked at Mo Yongxin and said, "Sleep here tonight. This is an illusion, but I have not found any flaws in this illusion so far."
Mo Yongxin nodded and walked into the room. This room was cleaned every month, and the bedding inside was still in good condition. Although it was not very gorgeous, it was still enough for sleeping.
As for Qin Yu, he stood in the yard and cleared away the snow on the stone table under the locust tree, revealing a chess board on the stone table. A hundred years later, the lines on it have become blurred.
I can barely get a rough idea.
This chess piece was carved by Qin Yu back then, and there were only two people in the entire Su country who could play chess, Qin Yu and Su Yanran.
In those years, whenever Su Yanran was not playing the piano, the two would play chess on this chessboard, while Xiaomei would serve them tea. As for Leng Yu, in her eyes, she only saw martial arts.
"The chessboard remains the same, but the lover is gone."
Qin Yu sighed lightly, sat on the stone bench, and grabbed the snowflakes in the sky with his right hand. The snowflakes condensed one after another, and finally fell on the chessboard, forming icy chess pieces.
The door to the main room opened at this time, and Mo Yongxin's figure appeared at the door. After looking at Qin Yu, Mo Yongxin walked directly towards this side, and finally sat down opposite Qin Yu.
"You go first or I go first?"
"You first." Qin Yu smiled and replied.
Mo Yongxin picked up a chess piece in Sai Xue's jade hand, glanced at Qin Yu, and pushed it forward.
"She is different from you. Back then, she always liked to attack the elephant first to defend." Qin Yu looked at Mo Yongxin's fallen soldiers and said.
…
On this night, the two of them were playing chess in silence. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, but not a single snowflake fell around them.
It wasn't until the sky was about to turn white that Mo Yongxin took back the chess pieces, stood up from the stone bench, and said, "I'm tired, I'm going to sleep."
Qin Yu looked at Mo Yongxin's leaving figure, then looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard, with a bitter smile on his face. He didn't win a single game in seven games, and they all ended with his defeat.
"Your heart is not on the chessboard." Mo Yongxin turned around and said this before closing the door.
After hearing Mo Yongxin's words, Qin Yu's smile became even bitterer. Yes, his heart was not on the chessboard. He returned to the fantasy world and thought about the past hundred years, how could he keep his heart calm.
Although this is just an illusion, a hundred years of life have allowed him to have his own feelings and traces in this illusion.
Do you really not love Su Yanran?
Was it just because Su Yanran looked the same as Mo Yongxin that she protected Su Yanran for a hundred years?
Returning to the dreamland, these two questions kept hammering him.
If you don't love me, why do you want to return to this yard? Why do you suddenly feel heartache when you see the tombstone?
"Mr. Qin, actually, sometimes I hate you very much. I hate that you have failed me all my life. If you can, please don't fail her again."
The last words of Su Yanran falling into Qin Yu's arms appeared before his eyes again.
Su Yanran loved him for a hundred years, and even to the end of her life, she could not get that promise. She had kept Su Yanran for a hundred years, but she had failed Su Yanran for a hundred years.
"I'm very curious about what kind of woman can make Mr. Qin miss her so much, and even get his lifelong protection just because I look the same as her. I think she must be very good."
"She is indeed an excellent woman..."
…
Every word Su Yanran said lingered in Qin Yu's heart. Just this winter a hundred years ago, the aroma of tea had just warmed up, and the locust flowers were fluttering against the snow. For a moment, for a moment...
If we meet each other at the right time and at the right place, if you don't know her, will you stay for me?
Are you willing to join hands and count the time together; to cherish each other and watch the pink and green willows together in the spring, to drink tea in the summer and listen to the wind in the bamboo forest, to slowly chant the chrysanthemums and yellow maples in the autumn, and to dance with the falling plum blossoms in the snow and ink in the winter?
puff!
Every word that fell on Qin Yu's heart was a heavy blow. Outside the road of refining the heart, those who passed by the dead leaves saw a mouthful of blood spurting out of Qin Yu's mouth. This blood was stained with blood.
Lotus leaves under feet.
Everyone felt that a desolate aura emanated from Qin Yu's body.
Could it be that Grandmaster Qin can’t pass this path of mental training?
Many people looked at each other with shock on their faces. If even Grandmaster Qin couldn't pass, would they still have a chance?
The goddess also looked a little nervous. Now her sister was with Qin Yu. If something happened to Qin Yu, she didn't know if her sister would also be in danger.
"Hey, this path of refining the mind has nothing to do with realm. Refining the heart and refining the heart is refining the heart. Everyone's state of mind is different, so what they encounter on the road to refining the mind is also different." An old man said with emotion.
There is no past in anyone’s heart that they are unwilling to mention, and the path of refining the mind is to re-amplify the past events that people are unwilling to mention, and even express them in the form of illusions. If you cannot pass the hurdle in your heart, you will not be able to pass the path of refining the mind.
, and the price for not passing the path of refining the mind is to turn into a sunken corpse at the bottom of the lake.
"What I admire even more is the woman who is with Grandmaster Qin. This woman is obviously an ordinary person, but she can actually reach this point. How strong her heart must be."
