"Oh? No, uncle, Haizhou City has your home, of course you should come back. Uncle, the hour is getting short. My nephew will go back to his room to rest first, so you should rest early. Tomorrow Lang Zhong will come to your home to see a doctor, you should pay attention to recuperate. As for this wine, let's drink less. ”

Li Yunsheng silently drank the wine in his cup, slowly got up and said.

After Li Yunsheng finished speaking, he didn't wait for his uncle Li Feilong, who was sitting on the other side of the table, to respond, turned around and walked towards the door of the study.

When he came to the door of the study, in a "creaking" sound, Li Yun opened the door of the study violently.

The cool night breeze outside blew into the study, and the candle flame that was quietly burning quietly in the study was suddenly shaking violently, and after a while, it burned and swayed straight, and the fire was already much bigger than just now.

In the threshold of the study, Li Yunsheng was pulling the edges of the two doors of the open study with both hands, and his body stood for a while, as if he was faintly burping.

Li Yunsheng lowered his head, and a pair of eyes looked at his toes steadily; After being silent for a while, he finally stopped looking like he wanted to speak and stopped, gritted his gums, and then stepped out of the study door with one foot, and his hands were forcefully behind him, and in a series of "squeaks", the two study doors suddenly closed and closed behind him; Everything that has happened to you has returned to tranquility.

Li Yunsheng did not stop outside the door of the study for the slightest, but left quickly, walked through the winding corridor in the backyard, and walked towards his bedroom.

Will it be another sleepless night tonight?

Why every time I go back to this house, I always can't sleep at night when I am alone.

Why is it that when I close my eyes, my father's body curled up in the grass pile of the old house and the bloodstained face will always appear in front of my eyes.

That year, I thought I had just turned 14 years old.

Since I was a child, people around me have said that I look very much like my father, and I will definitely be a good student for reading in the future.

But what's so good about reading?

My father has been very good at reading and learning since he was a child.

Many neighbors have called him Li Xiucai since he was a child, and after I was born, when I was still in my infancy, I was already called Li Xiaoxiucai by familiar neighbors.

Hehe, every now and then, my father is always a little proud.

My father, Li Feiyun, passed the Xiucai test at the age of 19 and became a real Xiucai.

I wasn't there at that time.

My father has not yet met my mother.

When I was five years old, my father was going to go to the provincial capital to take the township exam. But at that time, my grandparents fell ill one after another, and died not long after.

This delay was another three years.

In the past three years, my father studied hard while keeping filial piety, and I actually didn't understand my father very much at that time.

Every day, when I was young, I only knew how to play with my friends, and as for the literacy and hyphenation courses that my father occasionally assigned to me, I often learned to fish for three days and dry nets for two days.

At that time, my mother would often take me to my grandparents' house in Haizhou City.

I can see that somehow, my grandparents don't seem to like me.

My mother is the only daughter of the two elders!

And they bore my mother alone, and had no other children.

But why did the two old men dislike me, the only grandson?

It's something I haven't figured out yet.

My grandfather is an old talent, and he is the same as the old master Pu in Haizhou City now, and he has been teaching in private schools and schools in Haizhou City all his life; It is said that he has taught some private schools and some government-run schools. Moreover, I heard that he and that old master Park were still the best friends back then.

Grandpa's greatest desire in his life was to discover and cultivate a good seedling for reading.

If one day, one day his students can get a champion in the exam, so that he can raise his eyebrows as a teacher and make up for the regret of taking the imperial examination and losing his name to Sun Shan.

There was a time when my grandfather deliberately tried to teach me, but it didn't take long for him to give up.

Hehe...... Now it seems that I, Li Yunsheng, have been reading hard since I was a child. The ancestors of the old Li family, who can study, seem to have been blessed on my father's head.

My grandparents disliked me more and more.

Once, after a big quarrel between my mother and my grandparents, I left my parents' house crying, and I never went back to my parents' house until my grandfather was arrested and imprisoned for a drunken poem.

At that time, I didn't know what "satirizing the court and the emperor" was, let alone what a "literary prison" was.

My grandfather later died in prison, reportedly committed suicide in fear of sin.

Under his mother's daily pleading and pestering for half a month, his father, who had always "turned his ears to the outside of the window and only read the books of sages", had to raise his head from his large pile of poems and spring and autumn scriptures and thick historical books, and reluctantly pulled out to ask for acquaintances, to seek relationships, and to run in many ways, wanting to seek justice for his grandfather.

What is justice?

Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people?

Hehe......

However, it didn't take long for my father to be told by the Yamen Yousi of Xuezheng ~ He was no longer qualified to participate in the imperial examination.

Moreover, the emperor's grace and the court's kindness~ will not deprive him of his talent status for the time being.

But if you go around and shout grievances for the old man who mentions his poem "satirizing the court and the emperor", then I can't help it~ Not only will Xiucai's identity be deprived immediately, but he will also be punished in the name of "the same crime as your father-in-law".

My father, who was twenty-six or seventeen years old at the time, began to drink every day.

My father gradually compared with the past, and judged the two of them.

What can I know when I'm still young?

Father and mother began to quarrel often.

Later, my father began to work with my mother.

As I grew up day by day, at that time, I actually hated my father very much.

My mother is so pitiful.

Because in about half a year after my grandfather left, my grandmother also passed away.

I remember the day my grandmother died, my mother put her arms around me and cried quietly beside my grandmother's bedside.

Her mother said that from now on she would be an orphan without a father or mother.

I remember when I was young, I swore to my mother: But my mother still has Yunsheng!

At that time, when my mother heard this, her suppressed low crying suddenly turned into a cry.

My father was drunk all day long, and my mother gradually took care of everything inside and outside the house.

The ancestral property left by our grandparents and grandparents is quite solid, and the house we live in now is the home of our grandparents.

It's just that some of the buildings have been expanded later.

The expansion of this ancestral property was done shortly after his uncle was promoted to the rank of Tokai general.

My uncle returned to Haizhou in the early spring of the year I was fourteen years old.

Since I was a child, I have heard that I have such an uncle, but I have never met him.

It has been said that he suddenly disappeared when he was sixteen years old, and has been missing for many years. Others say he is long dead.

The premature death of grandparents may have something to do with the disappearance of this little son who was sad that he had disappeared for no reason.

But suddenly he came back.

At that time, my uncle, who was already a lieutenant under General Donghai, was crying loudly and kneeling in front of the grave of his grandparents in the wasteland behind the old house at the foot of Huaguo Mountain.

The days when my uncle had just returned, my father was very happy.

The two brothers got together every night to drink and eat their mother's cooking. At night, they fell asleep, there was always something to say, and every time the two of them talked about the excitement, they would always cry and laugh.

At that time, almost every day, some sergeants or officers would come to visit my uncle at home with some gifts, and my uncle always looked serious and businesslike.

The father greeted the guests warmly.

About a month after my uncle returned to his home in Haizhou City, one day he suddenly summoned me to him and reprimanded me in front of my father and mother for messing around all day.

When my father saw me kneeling honestly and not daring to say a word, he smiled and narrowed his eyes.

In the end, the mother only said weakly: Yunsheng's child does not seem to be like his own father, but like his uncle when he was a child.

When my father heard my mother say this, he looked up and laughed

Get up.

However, my uncle still kept a calm face, and said to me in a stern tone and as if he had given an order to the sergeant he led: You will go with me to the Donghai Haiphong camp early tomorrow morning, and you will first be a soldier patrolling the seawall. Do everything better than the soldiers who are about the same time as you, otherwise, in the army you will be served by military law; Back in this house, there is still a family law to serve. You are not allowed to return to your home without your commander arranging for you to rest. Otherwise, military law is merciless.

"Hahaha......"

At that time, my father sat on the side, looking at me with an aggrieved face, and he looked up and laughed again.

"You stinky boy, now, someone in this family can finally clean you up."

Hehe...... What's the solution?!

Father, don't you sit there without feeling the murderous aura of your uncle?

My uncle was born in the army, and it is said that he has really been on the battlefield and killed people!

After that day, I became a lowest-ranking ordinary soldier in the Haiphong Camp in the East China Sea of Haizhou City.

Because my uncle Li Feilong was a direct lieutenant of General Donghai, every day, I was treated specially~ For me at that time, it was like hellish training and torture.

I thought that those soldiers who patrolled the seawall were nothing more than carrying a goose knife in their waists or holding a red tassel gun in their hands every day, just take a turn and take a look at the East China Sea embankment, but where could they work hard?

However, I later learned that there are some facts that are often unexpected and imagined by people.

So, for so many years, although I have been trying to figure out why ~ my father died suddenly in the grass pile of the old house, I have been hesitating.

Should I do a thorough investigation?

Or just go straight to the point and ask your mother and uncle?

The reason why I hesitate is because I am afraid, I am afraid that the truth that will be torn apart will end up hurting my two dearest relatives ~ my uncle and my mother.

Which of the two is more important, compassion or understanding?

Which of the two is more important, beauty or truth?

False compassion can only bring illusory beauty.

True knowledge often reveals the truth of the facts.

But what if the so-called truth is a bloody truth?

So, how should I, Li Yunsheng, do it?

O my father!

Tell your son.

Why do you keep dangling in my nightmares with your blood-stained face?

What exactly do you want to say to your son?

Li Feiyun, my father, tell me quickly.
