Chapter 40: Farewell to Home
In the south of the county, in front of Liu's house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at this scene of sparrows and snow, Liuyun also felt a little emotional. Even if he hadn't seen it before, he could imagine from the wide avenue in front of him that it wouldn't have been so deserted, if not a city.
Leaving his feelings behind, Liuyun stepped forward, grabbed the snow-covered beast head knocker and buckled it a few times, and shouted loudly in his mouth, "Is there anyone?"
Originally, Liuyun planned to climb over the wall, but later felt that it was better to go through the main gate, after all, the owner inside was a lady.
After a while, the door slowly opened, and a middle-aged woman who looked like a servant leaned out. She looked at the person strangely, and then asked politely, "What is the matter with this son?"
"After the deceased, I came to mourn. Liuyun bowed and replied.
This is also the excuse he had thought of before, otherwise he would report his identity directly, and he was afraid that he would not be able to enter the door. As for what to say after seeing Liu Xian's wife, the only way to do it is to adapt to the situation.
And when the servant heard Liuyun's words, her face became even more strange, usually few people come to visit, but now she is not only here, but also a young and handsome "old woman", how can she not feel weird?
Stunned, she hurriedly asked again: "This son, can you tell me the honorable name, and I will return to the servant." ”
"My surname is Yun, a single celebrity, and the word is Tianshang. Liuyun pretended to be an elegant literati, and with his jade-like demeanor, even if he was wearing cloth clothes, he really had a bit of charm.
"Please wait a while, and the servant will go and tell you. The middle-aged woman bowed again and closed the door. In fact, she had already believed a little bit in the appearance of Liuyun, but out of caution, she did not bring Liuyun into the mansion.
Seeing that the door was closed again, Liuyun was not dissatisfied, and he was thinking about what to do next.
After a while, the "creaking" sound of the door opening disrupted Liuyun's thinking. I saw the middle-aged woman from before walking out of it and respectfully said to him, "Young Master Yun, please come with the servant woman." After speaking, he led Liuyun inside.
Liuyun followed her quietly, glancing left and right from time to time, but found that there were few people in the huge mansion, which looked extremely desolate. He didn't know how to feel about this, so he had to continue to follow without saying a word.
After walking through the corridor, I turned a few more corners, and finally arrived at the main hall.
As soon as Liuyun entered the hall, he saw the two spirit tablets set up in it and the filial piety woman standing aside.
The woman heard the sound behind her and turned around slowly. I saw that her face was full of haggardness, and at this moment, she was looking at the "visitor" not far away.
"Mother Wu, you should step back first. The woman glanced at the middle-aged woman next to her and told her to leave.
Wu's mother hesitated for a while, and when she saw her wife's resolute attitude, she answered and retreated. In the entire hall, only Liuyun and the woman in mourning clothes were left.
Before Liuyun could speak, the woman continued: "Liugongzi, are you here to inquire about Huiyu's real person?"
Hearing this, Liuyun's body shook slightly. Although he didn't expect to be recognized at once, but others recognized it, and he didn't need to pretend, so he generously admitted: "Yes, I came to ask where the Huiyu was." ”
"They went north to the capital. The woman replied lightly, then turned around and euphemistically ordered the eviction, "The concubine is tired, please go back." ”
Looking at the emaciated back, Liuyun paused, and said sincerely: "Thank you... And, sorry. After saying that, he didn't care whether the woman could see it or not, bowed and left.
In fact, Liuyun didn't know if what the other party said was true, but he couldn't do it if he coerced a widowed woman who had no grievances or hatred.
What's more, there is no need for her to deceive herself, and judging by her demeanor and tone, it doesn't seem to be fake, so she chose to believe it temporarily. Besides, the capital is the imperial capital, and there are many people and things, so maybe there will be clues to help my sister recover.
As for the thanks, it was out of unstinting to the woman, and the other apology was sympathy for her plight.
In the hall, Liuyun's words before leaving were still lingering in the woman's ears, making the look in her eyes a little complicated.
When Wu's mother came to report, she had already speculated. The events of three years ago were so impressive to her that they changed her life, and as one of the names of the parties involved, she remembered it in her heart. Yunliu, Liuyun, isn't it just that the name is reversed, and the age is basically the same.
Moreover, that Huiyu Zhenren once said that he killed a female monster named Liuli. Then, Liuyun, who is Liuli's younger brother, must be looking for revenge, and this is the one who is most likely to know the whereabouts of Huiyu's real person, so he does have a reason to find it.
Of course, this Liuyun may also come here to take revenge on their Liu Mansion, because the Liu Mansion also participated in the events of that year. However, since the other party chose to visit under a pseudonym instead of calling the door, it shows that he has no malicious intent, at least for himself and others.
Being able to analyze so well in such a short period of time before, this woman can obviously be called Lan Zhihuixin. And she can tell Liuyun so readily for two reasons.
One is hatred, yes, she hates the person who destroys her beautiful family.
If it weren't for that liuli, how could her husband have died, and how could her father-in-law have become ill and die. Therefore, even if Liuyun is not the culprit, he is the younger brother of the culprit, and she also hates Wu and Wu.
However, she was only a weak woman, and the government also ignored the affairs of the Liu Mansion after her father-in-law died of illness. In order to take revenge, the woman resorted to this trick to kill people with a knife, and asked Liuyun to find Huiyu Zhenren. Presumably, since that Huiyu Zhenren can kill Liuyun's sister, he will definitely be able to kill this Liuyun.
In fact, she also wanted to tell Liuyun the details of Huiyu's real person, so that he could be sent to death soon, but her own understanding was limited, so she could only tell the only information she knew.
In addition to this first point of hatred, this second point is helplessness.
The woman was afraid that if she didn't tell Liuyun the whereabouts of the real person of Huiyu, he might coerce herself and others. At this time, there is no strong strength in the mansion as protection, and if Liuyun really troubles these female dependents, there may be no peace in the future.
Therefore, even if the woman does not hate Liuyun, she will choose to tell everything bluntly.
However, the woman in front of her was stirred by Liuyun's last sentence, and she was a little confused, not knowing if she was doing it right. However, she will not regret it, because it is one of the few things she can do for this family.
Suppressing these chaotic thoughts, the woman came to the deceased husband's spirit card, she reached out and stroked it gently, tears couldn't help but flow...
On the other side, Liuyun had returned to the tavern. Seeing that it was getting late, he decided to rest here for the rest of the night and set off quietly tomorrow morning.
Nothing to say all night until early in the morning.
In the room, Liuyun finished spitting and slowly opened his eyes. The thought of leaving soon, there was a little reluctance in his eyes. If he could, he also wanted to live with his sister so peacefully and without quarrel with the world, but the reality was like this, what could he do?
Expressing the melancholy in his heart, Liuyun wrapped it on his back, pinned the knife, and put the small glass on the bed into his arms, and then tiptoed to the stable.
However, as soon as he reached the vicinity of the stable, he found a familiar figure waiting there early.
Looking at the house that was freezing in the cold wind, his ears were red and shivering, Liuyun felt that his nose was sour, and his heart was warm. He held back tears of emotion and ran quickly towards the house.
When the house Xi saw Liuyun coming, he pulled the reins and led the horse head-on, and at the same time he smiled and teased: "Big brother, you are not kind, and you won't be silent if you want to leave." ”
When Liuyun came back yesterday, Fang Xi saw some clues. After that, he asked Liuyun what his plans were, and Liuyun was even more vague. With his understanding of Liuyun, he quickly guessed that his eldest brother might have to say goodbye, so he deliberately waited in the stable this morning.
On the other side, Liuyun didn't respond to House Xi's words, but just came to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ouch, big brother, you tap. The house monster screamed, and then teased, "Huh, big brother, why are your eyes red?
"Go, that's the wind blinding the eyes. A deep voice came out of the mouth of the flowing cloud, as if he was suppressing some kind of emotion.
House Xi didn't break the lame excuse, to be honest, he didn't expect the separation to come so quickly, those words just now seemed to be a joke, but in fact, he wanted to dilute this sorrow.
At this moment, the parting was approaching, and House Xi couldn't say those witty words, so he silently handed the reins in his hand to Liuyun.
Liuyun watched the movements of the house intently, and took it wordlessly.
For a while, the atmosphere made both of them a little silent, and they didn't know what to say, except for the howling of the north wind echoing around them.
Soon, Liuyun's throat moved, wanting to say something, but the thousand words in his stomach turned into a sincere "cherish" when he came to his mouth.
House Xi listened, his nose twitched, and he replied swallowingly: "Big brother, you too." ”
Glancing deeply at the house again, Liuyun turned away, stepped on the pedal, and stepped on the saddle. He didn't look back, but drove his horse away. Just a few steps away, there was a shout from behind him.
"Big brother, whenever you come back, I will leave you a room here~~~"
Hearing this, Liuyun grinned and wanted to smile, but tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes unobediently.
With this lingering warmth, the wanderer once again began his endless journey......
