Chapter nine hundred and forty-four: false and true

There was a little moonlight outside the window, and the grandfather and grandson were sitting opposite each other in the house. Mr. Zhu was shaking the tea cup in his hand. The fragrance of the best Wuyishan Dahongpao tea was intoxicating. The old man's eyes were slightly drunk and tired, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more deep under the dim light. The whole

People seem to be getting older all of a sudden.

"In our Zhu family, there has always been one thing that is taboo, and no one is ever willing to mention it..." Mr. Zhu sighed faintly, looking at Lin Kun with great love and pity.

Lin Kun took the liberty to interrupt: "Grandpa Zhu, the Zhu family's taboo matters, I, an outsider..."

Mr. Zhu in turn smiled and waved his hand to interrupt, saying: "Since I want to tell you, I don't treat you as an outsider. We have been friends for many years. Grandpa Zhu wants to talk to you about what is on your mind."

Lin Kun was slightly frightened and said: "Grandpa Zhu, don't worry, Lin Kun will naturally not tell this matter."

Mr. Zhu smiled old-fashionedly and said: "You must have seen it while eating. There are empty seats in the middle on both sides. You must be very curious. They have been empty for my second son's family for more than 20 years."

, it has been empty for more than twenty years.”

Lin Kun said: "Grandpa Zhu, what about your second son's family?"

Mr. Zhu raised his eyes, his eyes full of kindness and kindness, and said with an obscure smile: "There was a turmoil in the Zhu family back then. My second son died trying to save me, and my little grandson who was just one month old was also kidnapped.

Later, my second daughter-in-law also passed away. This is the most sad thing in my life. After so many years, I have

I have been trying to find my grandson for more than 20 years. I don’t know if he is dead or alive. I don’t know how he is doing now. Is he an adult or was he killed back then? After all these years

I never gave up, I never gave up, I used all the resources I could use to search in secret, alas..."

A long sigh, as if to express the helplessness towards fate, no matter how much you are the head of the Zhu family of the four major families in China, no matter how much you turn your hands to make clouds and rain in the Yanjing Imperial City, it will be hard to keep your life and death, and it will be hard to keep your relatives and bones.

Xun, this grief is like a chronic disease condensed in the bottom of my heart. Occasionally, a lightning flash or thunder or a sleepless night will cause deep pain.

Lin Kun felt inexplicably heartbroken for the old man and said, "Grandpa Zhu, have you found it?"

Mr. Zhu looked at Lin Kun, and his eyes seemed to have rekindled hope. The burning warmth of family affection in front of his eyes made this old man who had already passed most of his life and was about to die suddenly feel endless hope.

, but then the scorching heat dimmed, replaced by a pair of eyes full of unfathomable sadness.

Zhu Laowei sighed, shook his head, put his old and soft hand on Lin Kun's hand, and said: "Grandpa Zhu hopes so much to see Zheng Kun in his lifetime. If he is still alive in this world, he should be like you."

At this old age, if I could hear him call me grandpa, I would have no regrets even if I closed my eyes immediately."

Looking at the arrogant and arrogant old man in front of him, his old age and helplessness frustrated by fate, Lin Kun felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and he unconsciously shouted: "Grandpa..."

Mr. Zhu's old and helpless eyes suddenly glowed with brilliance, and he responded: "Hey!"

Lin Kun suddenly became sad again and said: "I think of my grandfather. My parents died when I was young. My grandfather took me to the countryside to survive. He was a soldier when he was young and was shot several times. In that remote village

place, but he can’t even receive subsistence allowances. His temper

I was very stubborn, liked to drink, and was strict with me. He taught me a lot of skills and the principles of a man. My life was very difficult and my childhood was very difficult. But as long as my grandpa was around, I felt that I was not alone.

If you don’t study well, it will be useless even if you study well. I will take the exam

Instead of going to college, I had no choice but to join the army. In the army, I relied on the martial arts my grandfather taught me and I became an elite in the army. I was surrounded by comrades and comrades. But every time I think of my late grandfather,

I will feel inexplicably sad. He is the person I love most in my life. I

He couldn't live a good life. When he died, except for a neighbor who was willing to help, no one in the village was willing to lift him. When he closed his eyes, he pointed at me with trembling fingers and said, "Dragon and Phoenix among men", and he smiled peacefully.

When I closed my eyes, my world collapsed..."

Tears came out of his eyes, Lin Kun wiped them away, looked at Mr. Zhu with a forced smile and said: "Grandpa Zhu, if your grandson is still alive, he at least still cares about his relatives in this world, and my dearest person has already

It has been buried underground for a long time, leaving only a mound without a tombstone."

Mr. Zhu lamented and said: "Xiao Lin, I think you can understand a truth, really understand it, instead of superficially perfunctory. No one of us can stop us from birth, old age, illness and death. As a man, we can be born in this world.

What I do is to grow old

On the day when you go to close your eyes, can you leave no regrets in this world? Your grandfather smiled peacefully before closing his eyes, which means that he has no regrets in this life. A truly strong man is born lonely. The love between children is too deep.

It will mess up your heart.”

Lin Kun seemed to understand but Zhu Lao smiled and continued: "Xiao Lin, do you think Grandpa Zhu is lonely at this time?"

Lin Kun thought for a while and nodded.

Mr. Zhu stood up, put down his tea cup, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, raised his head and looked out at the pale moonlight, and said: "The Zhu family's huge family fortune has no one to inherit it. The descendants who have been cultivated for so many years will not be able to inherit it.

There is no one who can take on big responsibilities. Usually, they are more of a intrigue between brothers. The bigger the family, the bigger the family.

The internal struggle within the Zhu family becomes more intense. None of them can understand what I am thinking. I am not greedy for the position of the head of the Zhu family, but once I abdicate and delegate power to them, I am really afraid that I will

In my lifetime, I have seen the Zhu family retreat steadily, slowly being left behind by the other three major families."

Lin Kun thought for a while and consoled him: "Grandpa Zhu, everything is external, so why should you..."

Mr. Zhu smiled and said, "The Zhu family is no longer external to me. It is the mission left by my ancestors. It is something more important than my life."

Mr. Zhu turned his head, looked at Lin Kun's sudden change of subject, and asked: "Now do you know why I lied to them?"

Lin Kun nodded: "Grandpa Zhu, you are protecting me because you are afraid that they will mistakenly think that I am your long-lost grandson. Grandpa Zhu, will they believe such a lie that seems a little imprecise? The more you say this,

, the more they will become suspicious, since I am not your biological grandson anyway, so at worst, I just tell the truth."

Zhu Lao shook his head with a smile, looked at Lin Kun and said: "False and false, real and true, false and true, real and false. Sometimes the truth is false, and the false becomes true."

Lin Kun listened in a daze and didn't understand. Mr. Zhu smiled and said, "It's getting late. I won't let you rest here tonight. I'll ask the supervisor to send someone to take you back."

Lin Kun raised his hands and said, "Goodbye, Grandpa Zhu!"
