Chapter 250: Relief
Ye Yi had said before that he would leave after staying in Ye Village for a few days, but he didn't say anything, the little fat man always thought that Ye Yi was going back to Ye Mansion, or going to the Fengling Pavilion in Baihe City to see his grandfather.
It's just that it didn't work out later, Ye Yi seemed to be going far away, the kind that was far away.
Since the boss refused to say this kind of thing, the little fat man knew that it was useless for him to ask, and he couldn't change his boss's mind, so last night, the little fat man thought about it, and finally decided to go to Ye Xiaoling, in his opinion, she was the only one who could persuade the boss.
Ye Yi said that he would leave early tomorrow morning, so the little fat man quietly slipped out of the house alone in the middle of the night and went to Ye Mansion in Yongan Town.
Ye Xiaoling didn't expect Ye Yi to leave suddenly, and he didn't know the destination to leave, so he panicked immediately, and directly followed the little fat man to Ye Village.
Looking at Ye Yi, who was dumb and silent in the face of his questioning, Ye Xiaoling's nose was sour, and he couldn't help crying, and asked in a trembling voice: "Why do you want to leave? Even if you hate your father and hate us, isn't it enough for you to leave Ye Mansion? Why do you want to continue to leave? Where are you going this time? Are you leaving Qingluo Domain, and you won't even go to the academy?"
"You know all about that? Uh-huh? No, how did you know I was leaving?"
It sounds like the current Ye Xiaoling already knows about the incident back then, and Ye Yi himself is relieved, he really doesn't know how to say what he said, but how did Xiao Ling know that she was leaving Qingluo Domain?
The next moment, seeing the little fat man who shrank outside the door and didn't dare to come in, Ye Yi suddenly understood that there was already a traitor beside him.
glared fiercely, and the fat figure outside the door suddenly disappeared.
The reason why Ye Yi didn't mention to Ye Xiaoling about his departure was that he didn't want them to know about the soul mark in his body and going to the Xuanwu Empire, and he didn't want them to worry about it.
In this way, it is better to leave quietly, they may think that they left because they were angry about what happened back then, at least they will not worry too much about his safety.
Before, before the soul seal was resolved, if Ye Xiaoling asked him, he might still consider hiding it from Ye Xiaoling.
It's just that now that the matter of the soul seal has been basically resolved, he doesn't plan to go to the Xuanwu Empire anymore, so there is no need to hide it.
"You wait for me, you explain to you slowly. ”
Sitting on the bed and explaining that it was a little embarrassing after all, Ye Yi simply got up quickly, although he was still wearing underwear, but Ye Xiaoling was a little thin after all, seeing him changing clothes in front of her, she still blushed a little, and couldn't help but turn around quietly.
After changing his clothes, Ye Yi pulled Ye Xiaoling to sit down on the edge of the bed and explained: "I really wanted to leave before, and I was going to a far place, to the Xuanwu Imperial Capital of the Northern Xuanwu Empire. ”
"What? you...... What are you going to do in the Xuanwu Emperor?"
Ye Xiaoling suddenly felt that something was wrong, the Qinglong Empire was extremely huge, even if Ye Yi wanted to avoid them, it was obviously impossible for him to hide in the Xuanwu Empire.
Ye Yi smiled bitterly, and after thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth, and slowly told the story of the "mentally ill princess" who had left the princess in the royal tower on the ninth floor of the tomb palace.
When he said that he had been given a vicious soul mark, his life was hanging by a thread, and he was forced to send the inheritance of the Heavenly Soul Clan to the Xuanwu Imperial Capital for Princess Li, Ye Xiaoling's whole heart was grabbed, and he grabbed Ye Yi's hand tightly, so worried that he almost cried.
Seeing this, Ye Yi hurriedly told the result that he was already fine, and then told Ye Xiaoling everything about the strange things last night.
However, he naturally didn't say anything about Xixi, but changed it to that he had eaten a special pill, and he retained the medicinal effect of that pill in his body, and as a result, he gave the soul mark planted by the princess to death.
"You didn't lie to me, did you?" Ye Xiaoling was still worried after listening.
Ye Yi nodded and said, "It's really no problem, I don't plan to go to the Xuanwu Empire, I can't lie to you." As he spoke, he was afraid that Ye Xiaoling would not believe it, so he took out the jade box of gold paper and cyan scroll given by the princess and showed her it.
Hearing Ye Yi say that the princess was particularly evil, Ye Xiaoling didn't dare to explore the wordless gold paper, and after a few glances, she put it back, but the cyan scroll was amazing, with her current fourth-order occult master's eyesight, she could naturally see that this was a proper god-level mystic, extremely powerful, really like the legendary invincible technique, but the starting point of cultivation was too high, and it needed to reach the grandmaster realm.
returned the things to Ye Yi, Ye Xiaoling also believed Ye Yi's words, although it was an oolong, but since she came, she couldn't go back empty-handed, but she didn't know how to persuade Ye Yi, she sat stunned for a while, and stopped talking.
Sometimes, when the mood is irrational, proper separation can indeed calm people down, and after these few days of being alone in Ye Village, Ye Yi's mood has indeed calmed down a lot, and his hatred for Ye's father has also faded a lot.
It's just that the thorn is still there after all, and with the man's self-esteem, he really can't follow Ye Xiaoling back as if nothing happened.
Therefore, he really didn't want Ye Xiaoling to open this mouth, for fear that his refusal would hurt her heart.
In this way, one person was thinking about how to persuade, and the other was thinking about how to refuse, and the atmosphere was a little silent and awkward for a while.
"Xiao Ling!
Ye's mother's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and when she heard the news that Ye Yi was leaving, she and Ye's father also followed, but her cultivation was not good, and Ye's father's body was not fully recovered, so they came in a carriage, and the speed was not as fast as Ye Xiaoling on horseback.
As soon as she entered the door, Ye Yi's mother had red eyes, grabbed Ye Yi's hand and sobbed: "Xiao Yi, you are so decent, why do you want to leave? Where are you going?
"Mother-in-law, don't cry, listen to me first. Ye Yi saw the tearful Mother Ye, and suddenly felt panicked and anxious.
Mother Ye can be said to be the best person to him in his life, it was she who saved him from frostbite and fainted outside the Ye Mansion, spent money to hire the best doctor for him, and pulled him back from the ghost gate, although there is no blood relationship, but since adopting him, he has been treated closer than his own son.
Ye Yi can't afford to repay this kindness in his life, so he never dared to make Ye's mother sad, so he quickly asked Ye's mother to sit down, explained and comforted: "Mother-in-law, the child just promised others to send something to a distant place, and it's not that he won't come back, what are you doing!"
Afraid that Ye Mu wouldn't believe it, Ye Yi hurriedly gave Xiao Ling a look, Ye Xiaoling instantly understood, and hurriedly helped Ye Yi to round out the lie, but only said that it was to help others send something, but did not say what it was, nor did he say anything about the soul seal.
After listening to this, Ye Mu didn't ask any questions, but just held Ye Yi's hand and asked nervously: "Xiao Yi, is it okay for you to go back with your stepmother?" The stepmother also knows that she has wronged you by sitting like this, but the stepfather definitely didn't mean it back then, can you forgive your stepfather for his past mistakes for the sake of the stepmother, we are all a family, the past, let's let it pass, okay?"
"Mother-in-law, I ......" Ye Yi hesitated, struggling with bitterness in his heart, he couldn't make this decision, and he really couldn't bear to refuse Mother Ye.
Seeing the persecution, Ye's mother was unwilling to force Ye Yi to make this decision, her expression darkened slightly, she lowered her head, and said softly: "My stepmother knows that you have a hard time in your heart, and I don't force you, your stepfather is also here, he went to the grave of your father and grandfather, you go and meet him! After being a father and son for so many years, the relationship between father and son will not become a stranger like this, and there is not even a word of goodbye." ”
"Son, go now. Ye Yi nodded slightly, got up and walked out the door.
The little idiot had already woken up, but he just didn't want to get up in bed, and as soon as he saw Ye Yi leaving, he immediately jumped up and wanted to jump out of bed and follow him.
Ye Xiaoling's eyes were quick, so he grabbed its ear, pulled it back, and said, "Little idiot, be good, stay, don't make trouble." ”
............
Ye Yi walked in the air, and soon reached the hill where the three low tombs were located, and saw Ye Father in front of the tomb placing sacrifices from a distance.
Father Ye came alone, he also felt that Ye Yi was coming, he glanced back, his face was a little pale, he didn't speak, but his eyes were a little gloomy, he turned his head and continued to place the offerings.
After setting up the offerings and lighting the incense, Father Ye knelt directly on the grave money, and began to burn the paper money silently, still not saying anything, just kneeling like this, and sending the paper money into the fire one by one.
There is a lot of paper money, and Father Ye's movements are not fast, slowly and leisurely, and when the previous paper money is about to burn out, he handed over the new paper money, and it has been burning for more than half an hour, and he has burned a large pile of paper money sacrifices in front of him.
The long sacrificial incense also came to an end at this moment, and Father Ye bent down and seriously kowtowed three heads to each of the three small tombs, and then got up.
His body was obviously not good, he knelt for more than half an hour, his legs were numb, and he stumbled and almost fell.
During the whole process of worship, Ye Yi watched a few steps behind without saying a word, until his father-in-law got up and didn't stand firmly, he hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Father Ye is actually still very young, only in his forties, because of his good living conditions, he did not look old in previous years, he only looked in his thirties, but now he looks like a person in his fifties, his temples have grown pale hair, and there are a lot of wrinkles on his face.
This is because the previous corpse poison entanglement, the detoxification process wore out too much of his life, so that his longevity was greatly damaged, although some of the longevity in the next few years, through tonic conditioning, gradually repaired back, but it is still a broken life, and it is difficult to return to a normal state.
Looking at Ye's father, who was full of old age, Ye Yi couldn't help but feel a little sad and hesitant.
"Xiao Yi, forgive my father-in-law's past mistakes, okay?" Father Ye looked at Ye Yi fixedly, and spoke softly, with a hoarse voice.
Ye Yi smiled, and suddenly said, "Father-in-law, let's go home!"
Father Ye was stunned for a moment, and then he also smiled, smiling and smiling, with some tears in the corners of his eyes, and nodded heavily: "Yes, let's go home!"
............
The events of the year were an unintentional mistake, since Father Ye apologized and made amends in front of the graves of his parents and grandfather, those past events should not be entangled anymore, which will only make everyone's ending sad.
The moment he chose to forgive Ye's father, those painful memories did not disappear from Ye Yi's mind, but at that moment he chose to be relieved.
He followed his stepfather and stepmother back to Yong'an Town, as for the house built in the village, Ye Yi did not give up, but gave full authority to the little fat man to supervise, as for where he got the money to buy the land, Ye's father and mother did not ask.
