As night falls, blackness fills the entire earth, and only the sparse stars in the starry sky still bear witness to the years.
Chen Zhilong followed his mother back to the room. Her mother repaired his damaged clothes and asked him in detail about his married life.
After that, the mother and son sat on the same kang and began to hold a candle-lit night talk, chatting about life and time, and engaging in emotional exchanges.
Both of them are cultivators, and they are full of energy. Besides, they haven't seen each other for a long time, and they have never had a heart-to-heart talk like today, so they are in a very excited mood, and they are not talking about it.
Feel the passage of time.
The middle-aged woman also felt that she and her husband had wronged her eldest son. Now that her husband has passed away, he is the only one left in the world.
When I think that I am also getting old, have not made much progress in cultivation, and will pass away soon, my guilt for my eldest son becomes even deeper.
People always find out that they have been proud until they grow old. People who are proud usually cannot stay with themselves for long.
On the contrary, those with ordinary qualifications and poor spiritual qualifications, although they have not achieved much success, are the kind of people who have been with them the longest.
It's just that the journey of cultivation has always been like this. Those with high cultivation live longer, while those with low cultivation die quickly. People would rather achieve short-term success and fame than carefully open their eyes and take a closer look at the people around them.
That person.
It wasn't until one day, one day, one hour, that I suddenly had a realization and suddenly woke up, only to realize that I had been walking on this path for a long, long time.
Time passed by, and there was still a candle in the room, and a woman was carefully repairing a piece of clothing under the lamp.
Opposite him, a man in his mid-twenties who was not very big but still looked very mature was already leaning on the table, closing his eyes, snoring slightly, and slowly fell asleep.
Occasionally, the woman repairing clothes nearby would stop her movements for a moment after hearing the snoring, then slightly raise the corners of her mouth, reveal a smile, and then continue her work.
There are many female cultivators in the world of cultivation such as middle-aged women who work silently to give birth to children for the family and serve their husbands, and it is not uncommon in this cultivation family.
It is precisely because of the existence of countless people who work silently without asking for anything in return that the family can prosper better, prosper faster, and go further.
After a sleepless night, when the first ray of white appeared in the sky and the first ray of morning sun, the woman rubbed her eyes and then said to herself:
"This man is indeed old. He has repaired a piece of clothing, but he is already so tired."
Putting the repaired shirt gently next to the man, the woman went out quietly.
Then wisps of smoke rose up, and then a female voice appeared, waking up the young man who was still in his dream.
"Zhilong, it's time to get up and eat, hurry up!"
When Chen Zhilong heard his mother's voice, he rubbed his sleepy eyes for a while, then sat down cross-legged, breathed out in his Dantian, and started to use his exercises. After walking for a few days, he stood up, jumped off the kang, and walked quickly
Went outside.
"Brother, you are here."
A man whose appearance was somewhat similar to Chen Zhilong saw Chen Zhilong's figure and shouted.
This is Chen Zhilong's younger brother Chen Zhihu, who went to bed early last night.
"Second brother, you got up so early! It makes me, the older brother, a little embarrassed."
"No, no, I just got up a little earlier than you, brother!"
Chen Zhihu also scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and then said with some embarrassment.
"Your brother didn't get up that much earlier, he just got up a little earlier than you."
At this time, a woman came over with a bowl of soup and said to Chen Zhilong as she walked.
"Mother"
"Mother, why do you say that to me?"
Chen Zhihu has received a lot more love than Chen Zhilong since he was a child, and his relationship with his parents is much better. The relationship between mother and son is naturally very good, and it is much better than the relationship between Chen Zhilong and his mother.
Now that he was being teased by his mother, he was naturally unhappy.
"Okay, okay, it's okay if mother doesn't talk about you. Our tiger son is the best."
The woman fluttered her sleeves, then patted Chen Zhihu on the shoulder, then smiled and did it.
"It's been a long time since we, mother and son, have eaten together. Now this is a rare opportunity. Let's eat early while the sun is rising, the breeze is gentle, and the sun is warm!"
The woman said this as soon as she opened her mouth.
To be honest, what she said was right. It had been a long time since the three of them, mother and son, had a good meal together.
"Come, mother, eat some of this soft-shelled turtle, it has beauty effects."
As the eldest son, Chen Zhilong and Chen Zhihu are from the same mother and were born at the same time, but their maturity and thinking are completely different.
Although he and his younger brother Chen Zhihu were born in the same family, the education, care and resources they received since childhood were also different. This also led to Chen Zhilong appearing to be more mature and responsible than Chen Zhihu.
Heart.
As soon as the mother sat down and the table was served, Chen Zhilong, as the eldest son, knew that he felt sorry for his mother. He immediately picked up the chopsticks and gave his mother a piece of turtle.
"Okay, okay, my son is filial"
The woman happily took the turtle with chopsticks from her son and put it into her mouth happily, tasting the deep concern.
"Mom, you should try this too!"
Seeing what his brother was doing, Chen Zhihu was not to be outdone and took a chopstick of the dish to his mother.
"Okay, okay, they are all good children."
The middle-aged woman looked at her two sons, feeling very happy in her heart.
Suddenly, the middle-aged woman Beast put down her chopsticks, and then said to Chen Zhihu:
"Hu'er, you see you are not young at this age, but there is a girl that you have fallen in love with. Mother will rush to ask someone to come to your door to propose marriage to you."
"Mom, look what you are saying!"
"My son is still young. If you want to have grandchildren, don't you have a big brother here?"
"Besides, just yesterday you advised me to practice hard and get a foundation-building pill, which is good for foundation-building. You see, you changed your mind again after just one night. You want me to become your wife. You have become too...
too fast!"
Chen Zhihu was a little dissatisfied with his mother's fickleness and said angrily.
"Of course Mom knows which one is the big deal. She doesn't want you to start a family right now, she just wants to settle this matter first..."
