At night, Xia Gongyue sat alone in the study, looking down at a stack of thick letters, which was written by his eldest son Xia Youqiao, although Xia Youqiao sent countless letters, almost one every week, but he didn't have the courage to write a reply, not because he didn't want to reply! It's faceless.

Recalling the scene when his son was driven out of the clan, he, who was a father, was so powerless, watching the patriarch send someone to throw his son out of Xiajia County, he felt ashamed, so he felt that he had no face to see his son again.

Flipping through the letter, it recounts the bits and pieces of Xia Youqiao's life after leaving Xiajia County, including when Xia Youqiao got married outside, and gave birth to two sons, one is called Xia Jian, and the other is called Xia Chang, until his two grandsons also became relatives, and he has become a grandfather, but it is a pity that his great-grandson can't come back to see him, meet with him, and have a meal together, which really makes Xia Gongyue feel distressed......

Xia Gongyue picked up one of the envelopes with a trembling hand and opened the contents, this letter was about the birth of his grandson Xia Jian's youngest son. When he saw the contents of the letter again, Xia Gongyue's whole body began to tremble slightly, and he said to himself with trembling lips: "Xia Bing, could it be just a person with the same name and surname?" However, if it doesn't matter, then why did this kid send such a valuable pill to Xia Ziqian and Xia Lige? Xia Bing, you can't be wrong, it must be him, one of my great-grandchildren, Xia Jian's son, it must be him! ”

"What's the matter, old man? You're not going to start cultivating again on a whim, are you? You're a teenager and haven't cultivated? A voice came, Xia Gongyue hurriedly checked the tears from the corners of his eyes, put away the letters on the table, coughed dryly, and said: "No, I'm almost a hundred years old, cultivation doesn't mean much to me anymore, I just can't sleep, so come and read the book!" ”

"Hehehe, are you thinking about your son again?" Xia Gong Yue's wife slowly sat down next to Xia Gong Yue, sighed and continued: "Why don't we get out of here, take Yuan'er's family, and go find Qiao'er to live with them!" ”

"No, the roots are here, I won't go anywhere!" Xia Gongyue shook his head and refused.

"Well, actually, I just want to see the bridge before I go!"

Looking at his wife's expectant eyes, Xia Gongyue leaned down and whispered a few words in his wife's ear.

"What? You...... Are you telling the truth? There is a bridge, they have returned to Xiajia County? ”

"Shh......h What are you doing so loudly, be quiet, lest the wall have ears! ”

"Are you sure, old man? So why didn't they come back to see us? Is it because you still have a grudge against us in your heart? ”

"It shouldn't be wrong, that child's name is Xia Bing, and he should be our great-grandson, otherwise he wouldn't have given such a valuable marrow cleansing pill to the two brothers Ziqian and Lige for no reason. As for why they didn't come back to see us, I guess it might be because they wanted to avoid suspicion, because Xia Bing was already a six-star ghost general at a young age, and he also participated in the election of the patriarch, they should have wanted to gain the support of the children of the side branches, so they didn't come back to recognize us! ”

"Old man, go and inquire where they live? I want to meet them, and I promise not to recognize them, so I'll look at them from afar! ”

Looking at his wife's eager eyes, Xia Gongyue couldn't bear to refuse, so he opened his mouth and promised: "Since Xia Bing has signed up to run for patriarch, then his information must have been registered in the ancestral hall, and I will ask tomorrow, but this matter must not be known to Xia Yuan and their father and son, understand?" ”

"Don't worry, I won't say anyone, I swear to God, this secret is only known to the two of us!"

……

There was nothing to say all night, and as soon as the morning dawned, Xia Gongyue's wife He Shi stood at the door, waiting for her husband to come back with news. The summer palace went as quickly as he came, and he returned home in just half an hour, and did not make his wife wait long.

"How's it going, got the news?"

Looking at his wife's eager eyes, Xia Gongyue smiled slightly and said, "Of course I got it, otherwise I would dare to come back to see you!" ”

"Get out, dead old ghost, you're still teasing my old woman at this time, tell me, where do they live?"

"Hahahaha, they live at No. 108 Xinning Street!"

"108 Xinning Street? I think it's all abandoned old mansions, how could they live there? He frowned and asked worriedly.

"I don't know about this, I should want to hide it, after all, Xia Bing has such strength at a young age, it is inevitable that he will not be noticed by someone who cares!" Xia Miyatsu replied.

"Okay, I'll go see them, just take a walk and pass by, do you want to go with us?" He asked eagerly.

“…… I won't go, seeing that the election is imminent, I still have to go to protect the two brothers Ziqian and Lige, so that they can give their souls a boost to their physique with peace of mind, so you just go, remember not to disturb them! ”

"Hehehe, make excuses, whatever you want, I'll go see what their situation is, and then come back and tell you!"

After speaking, He didn't look back, and hurriedly walked out of the door, seeing Xia Gongyue sigh in his heart, it was not that he didn't want to go, but he was not ready to face his son......

Xia Gong Yue came to his son Xia Yuan's house and found that the enchantment had been laid here, Xia Gong Yue stepped into the enchantment with one foot, and immediately saw that his son Xia Yuan was waiting for him with his two grandsons.

"Hehe, good, very good, I believe that I can still see the rise of my branch in my lifetime, let's start, a month later, the patriarch of the Xia family clan must be the descendant of my Xia Gongyue!"

Seeing that his grandfather was even more confident than himself, Xia Ziqian and Xia Lige looked at each other and smiled, clasped their fists with both hands and said, "Grandson will definitely not disappoint grandpa......"

……

At No. 108 Xinning Road, He has passed back and forth at the door no less than ten times, but he still can't see anyone entering or leaving here. This is just a small three-story building, with a narrow courtyard, it is an ordinary residential house, the appearance is very simple, it stands to reason that there is a little movement in this kind of house, He must be able to hear it outside, but it is quiet inside, as if no one lives at all, is it that damn bad old man is mistaken?

Just when He was puzzled, a relaxed and happy voice came to him: "Hahahaha, sister, you have to talk about it, and you want to give me your share of the pudding to eat!" ”

"You little gluttonous cat, you can eat, but you have to hurry up and cultivate, don't live up to everyone's expectations of you!"

"Hehe, don't worry, I'll cultivate when I'm full, and strive to break through to the seven-star soul power realm as soon as possible!"

Looking at a girl and a child walking towards him, He stayed in place.

That's right, it's them, this girl and this child's appearance, there will be absolutely nothing wrong, they are their great-grandsons Xia Yongxiang and Xia Bing, inferred from their age, they are definitely the two of them, because Xia Chang's four are all sons, and their ages do not match, so it is concluded that these two should be Xia Jian's two children!

"Hey, sister, why are you walking so fast all of a sudden?" Seeing Xia Yongxiang suddenly speed up his pace, Xia Bing asked puzzledly.

"Let's go, there's an old woman over there who has been staring at us, I don't know what it is!" Xia Yongxiang whispered.

When Xia Bing heard this, he immediately looked in the direction that Xia Yongxiang said, and sure enough, he saw an old woman with an exaggerated expression looking at his side.

"We just moved in, so she's probably just curious that she hasn't seen us!" Xia Bing guessed.

"Hope you're right!" Xia Yongxiang opened the door and pulled Xia Bing into the room, and then carefully observed the old man outside the door through the crack in the door, and found that the old man had left slowly, so he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

"Sister, the person is gone, you see I'm right, she should live nearby, maybe curious about us strangers!"

"Hehehe, you're still smart, let's do it, go and cultivate, now there is no spirit fruit for your soul to eat, so the future road depends on yourself!"

"I know, I'll practice after eating the pudding!" After speaking, Xia Bing took out two cans of pudding from his shopping bag, and then immediately sat down at the dining table and savored them.

Xia Yongxiang couldn't help but smile when she saw this, and then went to the kitchen to cook.

"I'm back!" Halfway through the meal, Liu Ming's voice suddenly came from the door, Xia Yongxiang immediately greeted him, and when he saw that Liu Ming was not the only one who came back, he couldn't help but be shocked, because Liu Ming came back with the old woman who had just seen outside the door.

"Brother Ming, ...... this grandmother?" Xia Yongxiang asked suspiciously.

"Oh, she said she lives next door and forgot to get the key, so she wants to come in and sit and wait for his child to come back and open the door and she will go back!"

"Oh, I see, come in and sit!" Although Xia Yongxiang's voice was a little reluctant, but since Liu Ming had already brought people in, she couldn't drive people out, right?

"Hehehe, young man, this is your daughter-in-law, right? She looks so beautiful! Although the old woman was talking to Liu Ming, her eyes never left Xia Yongxiang's face, and she said with a kind face.

"Hahahaha, it's a must, my wife, can it not be beautiful? Who dares to say that she is not beautiful, my mouth has slapped him crookedly! Liu Ming laughed proudly, and couldn't help but make Xia Yongxiang's face blush, and glared at Liu Ming angrily, this guy doesn't look at the occasion when he speaks, he really wants to be laughed at.

"Grandma, you're so familiar, haven't we met somewhere?" At this time, Xia Bing also ran out, looked at the old woman who came in, thought for a while and asked.

As soon as the old woman saw Xia Bing, her mood immediately became a little excited, but she was still suppressing her emotions, afraid of scaring these children.

"Hehehe, I've seen it, I've definitely seen it, I live next door, can I not see it?"

"No, we've only been here for a few days, and I feel like I've seen you before we moved in!"

"Really? Then think about it, where have you seen me? ”

Xia Bing really began to think about it seriously, but he just couldn't think of it, and he couldn't help but smile when he looked at it, and at this moment, everyone's eyes froze, and they all looked towards the window of the living room, and a murderous aura had already surged in and enveloped the four of them......
