Chapter 236, duplicate name
Ling Xiaocan also knew about the existence of Grandpa Ji from Yang Yunle's mouth, so she was also surprised that Yang Yunle was able to meet an acquaintance one hundred and fifty years ago.
"Oh, thank you then, young man, you're such a good man." The old man smiled again, then stretched out his hand and wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve.
Yang Yunle took the pick and walked behind the old man, he didn't dare to ask any questions, because at this time he seemed to be a little unbearable.
"Old man, you ...... Do you live alone? Ling Xiaocan broke the awkward atmosphere, she must have understood that Yang Yunle was curious.
"Yes, I live alone, I used to have sons and grandchildren, but they ......," the old man said this, and he didn't want to continue, and his voice sounded a little choked.
Ling Xiaocan was a little confused, and didn't know whether to continue asking, so he had to ask Yang Yunle for help: "Brother Le, you see that the old man is strange and pitiful, living alone." Ay! ”
What she said was a bit inconsistent, and Yang Yunle naturally understood that Ling Xiaocan was asking herself again if she wanted to continue.
"Old man, you said your son and grandson ......"
Yang Yunle asked himself, mainly because the two words of his grandson pierced his heart, after all, he knew that he was Grandpa Ji's own grandson. And this old man's voice is exactly the same as Grandpa Ji.
"My son and grandson drowned while bathing in the pond."
The old man's eyes suddenly dimmed, as if he had known the death of his son and grandson, and his life had never been glorious.
"Drowning?" Yang Yunle suddenly remembered that he had drowned these times, could he really be a grandfather? And this one hundred and fifty years ago was his birthplace?
Yang Yunle didn't dare to imagine what happened, and with a little fear, he continued to ask: "After drowning, where did you bury them?" ”
The purpose of his question was nothing more than to confirm whether there were any corpses, and if not, it was very likely that a crossing would occur.
"Oh, I saw them drowning in the river, and I can't do anything as an old man. But when the neighbors helped with the salvage, there was nothing. It's like they've evaporated. ”
The old man sighed heavily, regretting that even if he fought for his old life, he should have to go down to the pond to pounce, even if he couldn't save them, he could go with them, life and death were easy.
"So, there's no body of them until now, right?" Yang Yunle knew in his heart that there was a high probability that the father and son had crossed over.
"Yes, they told me that there might be monsters, monsters in the water that ate them, but how could I believe it. I was just praying that they didn't die, so I haven't moved in all these years. ”
When the old man said this, it seemed that there was a little hope in his heart, after all, the body was not found, and everything was possible.
"That'...... What about the child's mother and your wife? ”
Although Yang Yunle is not sure that he is the child, he still wants to know the stories of others, and he knows that the couple on Alum Island are not his biological parents.
"Don't mention them, don't mention them." said that their old man was a little disgusted, so he waved his hand directly, kept his mouth shut, and didn't want to talk to Yang Yunle anymore.
"Old man, you just said your surname is Yang, right? That...... That ......" Yang Yunle plucked up his courage, but he was still a little timid.
"Old man, my sir means to ask what age your grandson was when he drowned and what his name was. We're just a little curious about other people's stories, nothing else, don't mind. ”
Ling Xiaocan finally understood Yang Yunle's suspicions, and if he couldn't ask, let her ask.
"My grandson, only five years old, so pitiful." The old man choked up again, tears streaming down his eyes, but he didn't cry.
Yang Yunle hated himself a little in his heart, these are other people's sad past, why do he still have to expose his scars.
"So what's your grandson's name, you know? Grandpa, my wife is pregnant, and my surname is Yang, if you don't mind, you can also use your grandson's name in the future. ”
Yang Yunle finally thought of a good reason, such a related continuation of thoughts, ordinary people should not refuse.
"Your surname is Yang, too?" The old man's eyes were obviously a little bright, "Then what is your name?" ”
Yang Yunle paused for a moment, and then blurted out: "My name is Yang Chang." ”
As soon as the words came out, Ling Xiaocan couldn't help but eat, Yang Yunle was really doubting that the child was himself? So you don't even want to reveal your real name?
"Oh, Yang Chang, good name, good name." The old man sighed politely, and then looked at him in a daze, "If my grandson is still alive, it should be about the same age as you." ”
Speaking of now, Yang Yunle still didn't know the name of the old man's grandson, so he couldn't help but ask again: "Old man, you forgot to say your name." ”
Yang Yunle smiled as he spoke, laughing helplessly.
"My grandson's name was chosen by me, and his name is Yang Yunle." The old man finally said the child's name.
"What? Yang Yunle!! Yang Yunle stood up all of a sudden, and he couldn't take a step forward no matter how his feet were.
"You say his name is Yang Yunle? Think about it again, old man, are you mistaken? The purpose of Yang Yunle's question is nothing more than to hope that he will find evidence that the old man's memory is wrong.
The old man's expression was a little indifferent, and he shook his head: "My grandson, how can I remember the name wrong?" Young man, what's wrong with you, why did your face suddenly become so bad, or I'll take care of it myself. ”
The old man thought that Yang Yunle had suddenly become unwell, so he leaned over and wanted to take back the picker himself.
"I'm fine, grandpa, I'm fine, I'll send you back." Although Yang Yunle is calm on the surface, his heart is already tumbling.
There is such a coincidence in this world, coincidentally Grandpa Ji didn't say it, but also coincidentally his own name?
He couldn't help but subconsciously glance at Ling Xiaocan again, only to see that Ling Xiaocan was even more surprised than him, and she probably didn't expect such a result.
"Grandpa, Yang Yunle's name is so good, did you give him this, does it have any special meaning?" Seeing that he was about to go to the old man's house, Yang Yunle couldn't help but want to inquire a little more.
"Oh, the son has his father's surname, so his surname is Yang. Children are born without smiling and do not speak until they are three years old. When I was a child, I was always teased by the people in the village, so I loved to cry, so I changed his name to not be sad as long as I was allowed to be happy. ”
