Volume 1: Chapter 199 of the Earth Demon Prince: The Old Man's Hometown
The gate of the courtyard was open, the lights had not yet been extinguished, and a slender woman was embroidering on the needlework table.
The child who had been thinking about him for countless days and nights, and his eyes were red and swollen from crying because he heard his bad news, but now he appeared in front of him, and the needle and thread in his hand fell to the ground with a click, and Han Qinglan's eyes couldn't help but moisten.
"Mother!" "Yang'er!"
Hugging and crying, it is better than a thousand words, the night sky can't help crying, and threw herself into Han Qinglan's arms, some scenes have appeared thousands of times in the world, maybe some people will feel that they are the same, and they are tired of it, but in this situation, in addition to crying, what words can be used to express lovesickness?
After a long time, the three tears stopped crying, glanced at each other, and saw the tears on the faces of the other two, and couldn't help laughing at the same time, and the sad atmosphere dissipated a lot in an instant.
"Yang'er, where have you been all these years? Mother is worried about you!" Han Qinglan's jade hand gently caressed Yeyang's head, her eyes full of love.
Cultivators, except for those who have little lifespan, should be youthful, and Han Qinglan was overwhelmed and sad because she learned the news of Yeyang's death many years ago, and now there are many white hairs growing in the green silk, dyeing that beautiful face a touch of haggard.
Yeyang's nose was sour when he saw this, so he knelt down and kowtowed three times on the ground: "Mother! The child is not filial, so you and your father are frightened." ”
Han Qinglan hurriedly helped him up, patted the dust off his body, and gently wiped it on his broken forehead with her sleeve worriedly, and reproached: "You kid, why don't you take care of your body so much, your parents who suffer from your body, if you really blame yourself, hurry up and heal the injuries on your body first, and don't say these stupid things anymore." ”
"Hmm!" Yeyang nodded fiercely, swallowed back his unassuming tears, and showed a young innocent smile to Han Qinglan.
The two brothers sat down next to Han Qinglan on the left and right, and Yeyang also came with the two of them over the years, but they only reported good news and not bad news, and passed the dangerous places. When it comes to happy places, she also proudly shows off, causing the two to laugh, and the mother and son chatter and look at the stars......
There was a lot of laughter and laughter overnight, and it wasn't until the sky turned slightly white that the night sun and the night sky parted from Han Qinglan, left from the Orchid Garden, and returned to their courtyard, Canglin Courtyard.
Canglin Courtyard is next to the second uncle's bamboo forest and the parents' orchid garden, covering an area of seven or eight of the night house, originally the night sun and the night sky, as well as Xi Mo, Cangyue and Chenxing, a total of five children's residences, now the others are not there, there are only two night suns.
Surrounded by green mountains and waters, it is backed by a hill 100 feet high, with a wide forest in front of it, and a river passing through it.
Yeyang stood on the white jade bridge on the river and looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh again, when he left in the past, he was just a young child, and now he is returning again, but he is about to become an adult, and the time of a hundred years is like the clear water flowing in the river under his feet, and it is gone forever.
Lao Ge was taken to another living quarter, and Butterfly Dance, because she was the maid of the night sun, was waiting here early, in addition to her, there was another young girl.
Also as women, the two naturally chatted together and waited for the two of them together, talking and laughing to pass the time, and soon, Diewu saw the two people who suddenly appeared in front of the door, and took a closer look, who else would it be if it wasn't their own son?
"I've seen Your Royal Highness, Your Highness, the slave maid has already cleaned up the room for you, everything in the room is as clean as new, the slave maid doesn't know if the son is worried about the old things, so he didn't make any claims, and changed and replaced them in vain. ”
"I've seen the two princes, do the two princes still remember the slave maid? I haven't seen you for a hundred years, but Your Highness is becoming more and more extraordinary! I won't let Your Highness forget about me all these years, right?" After the butterfly dance, another woman also smiled and spoke.
Yeyang first smiled and nodded to Diewu, then looked at the woman again, and replied with a smile: "I can't forget who I can't forget Sister Yun, I miss you so much!
Han Yun smiled and twisted lightly on her handsome face that made women jealous: "My mouth is so sweet, I won't joke with you, the road is so far, let's take a rest early when I come back, and you will be busy in a few days, just ask me if there is anything." ”
Han Yun was originally his mother Han Qinglan's maid, half a generation older than Yeyang and them, since they were born, they were responsible for taking care of the lives of several people, and they were also half of their nurses, but they were not very old, so they could be a thousand years old, when they were children, everyone else was called Yun Niang, only Yeyang often called her sister and sister.
"I'm not sleepy yet, I just want to see if this place is different from what I left before, let's go around first! ”
Han Yun could also roughly understand Yeyang's mood, did not refuse, and led the three of Yeyang to wander aimlessly in the Yefu, leaving footprints in all corners.
Is there enough big landlords in Yefu over the years? But there have been many changes, I have seen acquaintances for a few hours, but there is also an old man who has passed away, which makes people sigh, the scenery in the house is still the same as before, but some parts of the place have also changed for some reason, and the appearance is not very different from the memory.
Two more courtyards were opened in the dense forest, and the flower beds in the orchid garden were planted with more than a dozen kinds of flowers, and the land was expanded by ten feet, and there were many fewer stones by the river, and there were more unknown bird's nests on the giant trees on the hill.
"A few years ago, when a servant was lighting a fire, he accidentally set the kitchen on fire, and the original one was burned clean and built a new one here. ”
"More than a decade ago, there was a downpour in the river, and the river swelled so much that it collapsed two bridges, which were later rebuilt. ”
"These two courtyards have fallen into disrepair and many places have been damaged, so they have been renovated again. While walking, Han Yun also talked about the changes over the years for Yeyang.
"I remember that there were two old peach trees in the orchard, but when I came back, I saw only one, and the other was only a dead stake. ”
"When I was young, I always loved to provoke the little black bear on the mountain with Xiaokong, and now the little black bear has grown into a big black bear, but I don't dare to mess with it anymore. ”
Yeyang also remembered a lot of childhood pleasures, and couldn't help laughing, they talked and laughed all the way, and finally stopped in the bamboo forest.
"After all these years, the second uncle has never come back?" Looking at the collapsed bamboo building in front of him, the weeds in the forest were almost overwhelmed.
When Han Yun saw this, he couldn't help but sigh, and said: "When the soul lamp you put in the ancestral shrine went out, the king thought that you were dead, and in a fit of rage, he fought with the returning second master, and both sides were bloody, and finally the second master left, and the king cut this place to pieces, and never came to the bamboo forest again, and the second master never had any news again." ”
When Yeyang heard this, he could only sigh, and together with the night sky, he removed the weeds all over the ground without saying a word, and after taking a deep look at the place, he turned around and left......
The climate in the Silent Mountains is cold all year round, and when they first moved here, many people were not used to it, preferring to eat steaming food to ward off the cold and keep warm.
Therefore, a special cooking method was created, called boiling, that is, a soup pot is placed on the table, spices are placed in it, and after boiling with a gathering fire array, fresh ingredients are added, and it is ready to be cooked.
On the stone table, a soup pot is placed on a gathering array arranged by red light, and the heat is channeled into the iron pot, and the soup in the pot is boiling and the hot white mist is rising.
The four of them sat around the stone table, a beautiful woman with gray hair and a wonderful mental outlook, smiled and picked up two pieces of tofu in the soup pot with chopsticks, and put them in the porcelain bowl of the two teenagers: "Eat it while it's hot, you still have injuries on your body, eat some hot, it's good for your injuries, Xiaokong, you also eat more, think about how strong your father is, why are you two boys so thin as if they didn't grow meat, it's more to make up." ”
"Sister, you're too partial, I think these two little guys have forgotten even good sisters. Han Yun on the side pursed her lips.
"You say you, how old are you, and you still want me to serve you, and deal with two children who haven't grown up? Han Qinglan scolded with a smile, and also picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in her bowl.
The latter took it with a smile: "Thank you, my good sister." ”
"Who's that?Butterfly Dance, you should sit down and eat together, why are you standing there alone?"
"Thank you, madam, but the slave maid has a humble status, so don't you want it!" Butterfly Dance was originally serving behind Yeyang, but when she heard Han Qinglan's words, she shook her head and refused.
"Butterfly Dance, my mother asked you to sit down, you can sit down, there are no outsiders here, what are you polite about!" Yeyang said and deliberately made a straight face, Butterfly Dance was startled, and then blushed and sat down embarrassed.
"That's right, it's all a family, what's polite!" Han Qinglan smiled, and picked up another piece of meat for Butterfly Dance.
"By the way, mother, when will my father come back from the battlefield, and will Grandpa Li go with him? I've been back for half a month, and I haven't seen the two of them, so there won't be any changes on the battlefield, right?" Yeyang picked up a piece of fragrant Dapeng meat and gave it to Han Qinglan, and asked uneasily.
"What else can happen, isn't it just those military affairs? You have won over the Heavenly Demon Kingdom this time, such a powerful alliance, what else can happen in the war? You can rest assured, probably there are too many things to get out of the way, and you will be able to come back soon." Han Qinglan touched Yeyang's head and replied with a smile.
"I see!" Yeyang took a sip of hot soup while holding the bowl, and didn't ask any more questions, but he always felt unsteady in his heart, remembering the unusually smooth alliance meeting, and always feeling that something big would happen.
