Chapter Forty-Nine: Old Things and Old People
Chen Er also looked at the old man.
He clearly felt that although the old man's gaze fell on him, he was not looking at himself.
Chen Er could feel that he was looking at another person through himself.
Chen Er took a deep breath and sat down opposite the old man.
The middle-aged man beside the old man had already reacted at this time.
"Who are you!"
Chen Er raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and forgot what he wanted to say.
The old man curled up in a wheelchair looked radiant and radiant at this time.
With difficulty, he stretched out his hand and opened his mouth, which had few teeth, to speak, "like...... Really, too, like ......."
The middle-aged man was pulled by the others, and then obediently shut up.
It's just that his gaze is still very unfriendly.
There was a look on the corner of Chen Er's mouth that seemed to be smiling.
Looking at the old man in a wheelchair, he asked, "Of course I look like my grandfather......"
Chen Er's tone was very soft, but there was not much emotion and warmth.
"Originating from the same bloodline, my grandfather and I naturally look alike."
When the old man in the wheelchair heard this, his eyes suddenly changed.
It seems to be regretful, it seems to be painful, and it is even mixed with a hint of fear.
Chen Er has always liked to get straight to the point, and he doesn't like to go around in circles.
So he got straight to the point and said, "Tell me, what kind of person are you, you would actually go to the mountains to worship my grandfather and them." ”
As soon as this sentence came out, except for the old man lying in a wheelchair, everyone else was startled.
Probably surprised why Chen Er knew.
The person who had just come to deliver the documents, seeing that the situation was not good, hurriedly gestured to the middle-aged man, smeared oil on the soles of his feet, and slipped away.
The old man in the wheelchair smiled as if he was pleased.
"You really ...... Too much like ...... You, grandpa ......"
Chen Er raised an eyebrow, "You haven't answered my question yet." ”
He didn't like the tone of the old man's voice.
This old man is not his elder, but he wants to speak with the posture of an elder.
Moreover, Chen Er had already roughly guessed who he was.
The old man let out a strange laugh.
Intermittently coming out of the throat.
It's like rotten wood being sawn open by a saw.
The laughter didn't last long, though.
The old man coughed a few times, and his gaze suddenly became very soft.
He looked at Chen Er, but his gaze gently crossed Chen Er's shoulders and landed in an unknown distance.
Chen Er guessed correctly, this old man was indeed a servant by the grandfather's side back then.
The old man said that he was a servant in his grandfather's house.
Because he is a domestic servant, he does not have a surname, only a first name.
The old man said that his name was Yu Mo back then.
When my grandfather, grandmother and my family were separated, there were two servants by my side.
There is also a man named Qinshu, who died on the way to escape.
Grandpa and Grandma walked all the way to the southwest, and at that time only the rich areas of Jiangnan were fighting, and the north was divided by warlords and was not stable, so they could only go in the southwest direction.
Needless to say, although there was not much fighting in the southwest, there were many bandits and it was very unsafe.
In order to protect themselves, grandpa and grandma had to go incognito to avoid more incidents.
When the past was talked about here, the old man named Yu Mo was already completely immersed in memories.
"We finally stopped in a small village, which has not yet been spread by the fighting, it is peaceful and peaceful......"
"The people in the village are called Young Master and Young Grandma, Mr. Chen, Mrs. Chen......"
Yu Mo suddenly laughed.
"The young master said that the surname Chen is the surname of one of his students, and he just borrowed it."
"Although life in the village is relatively hard, and money can't buy any good things, life is still very happy."
"The young master is not happy, he said that he wants to go back and join the family......"
Yu Mo said that the war was raging back then, and the land of China was in chaos.
Wealthy and powerful families either choose to emigrate overseas, cooperate with warlords to defend against foreign enemies, or choose a force to help them in their entirety.
Grandpa Tai didn't want to leave Huaxia, this is the land where he was born and raised.
Even if the sky is full of desolation and the day is precarious, this is also his home.
It's a pity that Grandpa Tai didn't wait for the day when he could join the family.
The fighting spread much faster than they had imagined.
It didn't take long for the village to be at peace.
Yu Mo's eyes seemed to glisten with tears.
"On that day, all the children, the old people and the women were hidden in the cellar."
"The men had guns in their hands and rushed into the village so suddenly that they killed almost anyone on sight."
Yu Mo raised his hand, "The villagers don't have guns, only sickles, wooden sticks, ......"
"But the villagers can also spell a few times!"
"Then they found someone in the cellar......"
Yu Mo's eyes flickered.
"What to do? What to do? “
"What the hell should I do!"
Maybe it's because of excitement, maybe it's something else.
Yu Mo is speaking more and more fluently.
"It's the young grandmother, she rushed out!"
"The young master and the young grandmother ran towards the outside of the village together......"
"I heard someone shouting outside, 'Look at what they're dressed as rich people!' Captured alive for money! ’”
Then there was a large number of footsteps, and they rushed towards the outside of the village!"
Yu Mo trembled.
"And then, there were two gunshots!"
Chen Er unconsciously clenched his fists when he heard this.
Yu Mo shook his head and said, "We waited in the cellar until it was dark and didn't dare to go out, and it was dawn the next day...... There was no sound outside......"
"When we went out, the village was almost burned to the ground...... I hugged the little master, go, go, go...... I finally saw them. ”
"The body has stiffened, and the valuable jewelry is gone."
Yu Mo stretched out his palm with difficulty.
"The only thing left is a jade bracelet that the young grandmother stuffed in the little young master's hand before rushing out......"
"The young grandmother said that the little master likes to play with this thing the most, if he cries, use this bracelet to coax him......"
"However, that day, no matter how I coaxed, the little master still cried."
Chen Er's clenched hand slowly loosened, and it took a long time before he exhaled.
Yu Mo paused for a long time when he said this, and then his eyes suddenly became fierce.
The intonation also became sharp.
"It's them! It's all the couple's fault! ”
Chen Er set his eyes on the old man's body.
Yu Mo's shoulders trembled violently.
Intermittently, "It's all their fault!" ”
"They deliberately attracted the devil!"
"They want to kill the young master and the young grandmother!"
"What they want is the treasure and ancient books brought by the young master!"
Yu Mo suddenly coughed violently as he spoke.
Chen Er hurriedly poured a glass of water in his hand, and then patted him on the back to ease him.
