Nalan Mansion occupies a side of feng shui, backed by lush forests, located in the green mountains, looking down at a thousand miles without the barrier of high mountains, looking down is a babbling stream, clear and quiet, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, flowing clouds change.

Nalan Wenruo lay a thread-bound ancient book on half of his abdomen, his hands were interlocked, his eyes were slightly closed, and he was lying peacefully on the rattan chair.

Not far away, an old man with crane hair and a childish face slowly approached with a thin blanket and gently covered him.

Nalan Wenruo didn't fall asleep, opened his worried eyes, and muttered, "Zhiyuan, how long have I been asleep"?

Pang Zhiyuan said lightly: "It's about ten minutes."

Nalan Wenruo sighed, "I've been suffering from insomnia and dreams lately, I thought I had slept for hours."

Pang Zhiyuan looked at Nalan Wenruo's wrinkled face, this Northeast Tiger who once shocked most of the Northeast was old.

"I've been in the countryside for so many years, so I don't have to worry about it."

Ten minutes of light sleep did not make Nalan Wenruo feel better, but became groggy and more tired.

"Since ancient times, China has had a complex of returning to the countryside, and the more intellectuals this complex is, the heavier this complex is. Zhiyuan, do you know why"?

Pang Zhiyuan's hand holding the blanket paused, "I've fought all my life, and I want to be quiet when I'm old."

Nalan Wenruo shook his head slightly, "Huaxia is the country with the longest agricultural civilization, and the temptation of the land and the fragrance of the countryside are deeply rooted in the bone marrow. With land, there is a fixed home, and the reason why the Chinese people like peace and are not as aggressive as Western countries is that we love home. Since ancient times, Chinese people have regarded home as very important, sacrificing ancestors, shading future generations, and the inheritance of the family has always been the main line of Chinese civilization."

Pang Zhiyuan smiled, "You are always so knowledgeable, a simple old man can return to his hometown, and he can tell a great truth from you."

"A lot of truth is just a summary of the laws of things that already exist, whether there is such a truth or not, the truth is there, and many times the reasonable person is just adding to the snake."

Pang Zhiyuan said with a smile: "You should explain these truths to your back more, even if an old man like me understands it, it is useless."

Nalan Wenruo smiled helplessly, "They don't love."

Listen, don't look at each one in front of me, in fact they all have their own reasons."

Pang Zhiyuan thought so, frowned and said: "I can understand, don't look at your prestige outside, at home, future generations may not take your old man's words to heart."

Nalan Wenruo smiled, "Shengde and Shengyi are the same"?

Pang Zhiyuan sighed, "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and on the surface, they are only promised in front of me, but in fact they are all the same. Last week, my five-year-old great-grandson asked me if I was online, and I said I wasn't a spider, what kind of web."

As soon as Pang Zhiyuan finished speaking, Nalan Wenruo laughed.

Pang Zhiyuan frowned, "Even you make fun of me."

"No more smiling, no smiling. Fifty steps and a hundred steps, Ziying's son asked me to play with him last time, and I was just as confused."

Pang Zhiyuan nodded, "So, don't think so much, the juniors are not as weak as we think, they don't necessarily know less than us."

Nalan Wenruo put away his smile and said lightly:

"Zhiyuan, how many years have you been with me"?

"Twenty years old followed you, and now it is seventy-five years."

Nalan Wenruo sighed, "It's been so many years"?

"Hehe, what do you think, we are both in our nineties."

Nalan Wenruo smiled, "You still have a good memory."

"It's not that I have a good memory, it's that you think about too many things in a day."

"I remember when I first met you, I didn't like you very much".

"It's not just that I don't like it, it's just that I hate it."

Nalan Wenruo frowned, "It's so serious."

Pang Zhiyuan slowly sat on the rattan chair next to him, "At that time, you were only seventeen years old, which was the age of rebellion, and the old lady arranged for me to be your personal bodyguard, staring at you all day and night, and reporting everything you did to the old lady, because of my little report, you were pumped a lot."

Nalan Wenruo sighed, "I remember, I remember that at that time, I fell in love with a woman in the Qinglou, because of your whistleblowing, I was grounded for half a year, and when I came out again, that woman had been ransomed by the old lady and sent out of Tianjing, and I was missing." Because

I hated you for years."

Pang Zhiyuan smiled, "Then when did you start not hating me?"

Nalan Wenruo looked at the remnant sun in the sky from afar, and said: "At that time, Huaxia was stormy and war-torn, and the family had to leave Tianjing and move back to their hometown in the Northeast, do you remember the time when you encountered bandits on the way home?"

Pang Zhiyuan nodded, "Of course I remember, the family evacuated in three batches at that time, and you were the last one." According to the original plan, you should have taken the official road, but you wanted to take a shortcut and take the trail, but you were surrounded by more than 30 bandits." As he spoke, he pointed to his armpit, "This bullet has been in my body for more than 70 years, and it still hurts every time it is windy and rainy."

Nalan Wenruo smiled, "Since you helped me block that bullet, I don't hate you."

Pang Zhiyuan smiled, "It seems that this bullet is worth it."

"It's not just this bullet, I can't remember how many times you saved my life."

Pang Zhiyuan also lay comfortably on the rattan chair, although he was only a bodyguard, but he lived and died together all his life, and the two of them had long lost the scruples of master and servant.

"It is my duty to protect you, as a bodyguard, I can die, but you must not die, otherwise you will not be a qualified bodyguard".

"Just because it's a bodyguard?" Nalan Wenruo turned his head to look at Pang Zhiyuan.

Pang Zhiyuan smiled, "At first, later, you gradually became my friend, brother, and relative." ”

Nalan Wenruo smiled: "You still said it after all."

Pang Zhiyuan's old face was slightly embarrassed, "You and I have always been masters and servants, so let's talk about this kind of thing now, how can I say it before."

"Zhiyuan, you and I have been together for a lifetime, so what is the most successful thing I have done in my life?" Nalan Wenruo asked with a serious expression.

Pang Zhiyuan frowned slightly, he has been by Nalan Wenruo's side all his life, he knows Nalan Wenruo's character very well, he is extremely smart, and his heart is as deep as the sea, so although he has been together for a lifetime, he just does his job as he does his duty, and never asks about anything else.

"Didn't you just say that when people are young all their lives, they are for the glory of their ancestors, and when they are old, they are for the prosperity of future generations. I think the most successful thing for you is to have good children and grandchildren who can keep their families and start their own businesses."
