Chapter 85: The Past

"Grandpa, are you at home?" people arrive before they arrive, Lin Chong has always been like this when he was a child, and when he went to relatives, he always reached the place before the sound of people, but later as he grew older, he was teased a lot, so he changed this bad habit.

I saw Lin Zhong come out of the house, looked at Lin Chong and asked, "Big baby, how old are you, you are still shouting like this, can't you be quiet, didn't you enter the city last night, what is the urgency of this dusty appearance?"

"Grandpa, I went to the city to thank Director Zhang who helped me last time I went to the city to sell vegetables, and then I heard that one of his elders was injured, so I followed to take a look. ”

"The place where his elders lived was built on the mountain behind a scenic spot outside Gaoling District, and I remember that the family seemed to be called the Oriental Family. ”

Lin Chong stared at his grandfather tightly as he spoke, and sure enough, his grandfather, who had always been calm and calm, trembled when he heard this, staring at Lin Chong deadly, "Go on!"

"After entering this Oriental family, I met an old man, he said that I am very similar to an old man of his, this old man's dark illness, should have accumulated over the years, and now it has all broken out, I estimate that there is no good elixir, and there are really few days to live. ”

"What! Is it so serious? Have you treated him, I remember a lot of your medicine, give him one. I saw Lin Zhong appear in front of Lin Chong in an instant, and asked with his arm around Lin Chong's shoulder.

It was the first time Lin Chongda had seen his grandfather like this since he could remember, and comforted him softly: "Grandpa, you have lost your temper, it seems that your relationship is indeed very good, and the things that the old man told me are also true." ”

"Since you care about him so much, after so many years, why have you never been willing to see him, and I haven't personally confirmed with you, how dare I give people pills at will, don't worry, I have left a breath of true qi in his body, and there is no problem in saving his life for the time being. ”

Hearing Lin Chong's words, Lin Zhong stabilized his mind and took the lead in walking towards the house, Lin Chong also hurriedly followed, and after entering the house, Lin Chong saw that his grandmother was already sitting in the hall.

"Big baby, it's no wonder your grandfather is here, it's all because of me, if it weren't for me, your grandfather wouldn't have fallen out with his family at that time, wouldn't have gone to the battlefield in a fit of anger, and finally even followed me to live in seclusion in this poor mountain forest. ”

"When your grandfather was young, he was also the young master of a big family, and then he met a woman from a common people's family, regardless of the opposition of the family, he had to be with the woman, and finally left home to run to be a soldier, but after the victory of the war, his good brother also persuaded him to give up the woman and let him go back to the capital with him. ”

"In the end, your grandfather couldn't get angry, so he left the army, came to this small mountain village, married that ordinary woman, and has lived until today, and that woman is your grandmother and me, you must know that your grandfather's family found him a good lady. ”

There is nothing to say about these things, and your grandfather's plan is to wait for you to have the ability in the future, and then tell you, and then take us back to that house together, so that those people back then can see that he Lin Zhong can mix well without relying on the family.

"So that's the case, I said it earlier, why should I be so curious, don't worry, grandparents, with your grandson's ability, I will definitely take you back to the capital in the future." Lin Chong patted his chest and said.

"Actually, after so many years, it's not interesting to go back, your grandfather and I are so old, and it is estimated that few of the people who arranged for me to marry back then are still alive in the world, and it is good to get used to living in this Niutou Village. ”

After a pause, Lin Zhong continued: "And the old man you saw, his original name was Dongfang Yinghao, their family was originally an ancient martial arts family, and the relationship with your grandfather was also very good back then, but later I thought that he was also like those people, persuading your grandfather to give up your grandmother, so he left in a fit of anger." ”

"Looking back now, at that time, he was also for his own good, after all, he didn't want my brother to live a hard life for the rest of his life, so we will take time to go over early tomorrow morning to take a look, take out one of your medicines, and bring it with us when the time comes. ”

"Okay grandpa, then grandparents, you rest first, I'll go back, and we'll go over early tomorrow morning." ”

After saying hello to his grandparents, Lin Chong left, knowing so many things in one day, he had to go back and digest it well, since he was a child, he fantasized about how good it would be if he was a rich second generation, where did he need to work so hard.

Now it seems that he really has a different family, although it is a place where even his grandfather doesn't care, and it has little to do with him.

The next day, Lin Chong followed his grandfather Lin Zhong to the town after breakfast, planning to take the morning bus to the city, and then take a taxi directly to the Dongfang family.

"Grandpa, you must not be excited when you see the old man of the East later, you are old, in case you are too excited, it is not good. Although he knew that it was impossible for this to happen as a martial artist, Lin Chong couldn't help but say something, which could be regarded as relieving the atmosphere.

"You kid, don't think I don't know your thoughts, what you are playing now is all the leftovers of what I played back then, don't worry, your grandfather is very calm. ”

"That's good," the two of them went to the courtyard of the Dongfang family again, and found that this time it was Dongfang Wenren who personally brought two people to guard the door, and when they saw Lin rushing over, they quickly greeted him with a kind face.

"Brother Lin, you are finally here, but let me wait, grandpa ordered me to wait here for you to come over early in the morning, but I didn't expect you to really come. ”

Following Dongfang Wenren, he entered the small courtyard where the old man of Dongfang was yesterday unimpeded, and Dongfang Wenren retreated by himself very interestingly.

"Brother Yinghao, I haven't seen you for decades, you are also old, where is the high-spirited appearance on the battlefield back then. ”

Seeing that Lin Zhong was really coming, the old man in front of him couldn't stop his tears and burst into tears, struggling to get up from the chair, but he tried several times without success, and finally Lin Zhong personally went over to help him up.

"Brother, you are finally willing to come to see me, I didn't mean that back then, why didn't you listen to persuasion, if you didn't insist on leaving at that time, even if you didn't rely on your family's power, with your merits, you wouldn't be an ordinary peasant now. ”

Lin Zhong opened his mouth, wanted to say something but held back, and was silent for dozens of seconds before sighing: "It's all over, it's not interesting to talk about this now, this time I came here mainly to see your injuries." ”

"I know my own injury, I can't heal it, you have experienced all those big and small battles with me, if I had retired early to recuperate like you in the early years, there may still be some hope, but now there is really no way. ”

Lin Chong knew that Dongfang Yinghao knew his injuries very well, and he couldn't let go of this family, and he couldn't do without him, otherwise, like his grandfather, he could retire early and retire with peace of mind, maybe he could really live a few more years.

"Who said that your injuries are incurable, haven't I spoken yet? Big baby, take out the medicine that grandpa told you to bring yesterday. ”
