Chapter 11: The Human Heart

Liuyun Town, Yao clan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yao Xiang walked into the gate slowly, the guards at the door were all respectfully bent over, and the housekeeper Yao Kun, who was hiding at the door when he saw Yao Xiang from a distance, looked ugly, he hesitated, but put on a flattering smile, hurriedly ran out, and hurriedly said: "Yao Xiang Gongzi is back, please inside, please inside." ”

Yao Xiang glanced at him, continued to walk forward, his face was as calm as water, no waves, Yao Kun was sent to the corner, looking at the back of Yao Xiang leaving, he exhaled deeply, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, he never thought that this waste would turn over, half a month ago, Yao Xiang's reputation returned to the peak, and there was still a victory, which made these people who bullied Yao Xiang every day panic, and they were afraid that Yao Xiang would come to the door.

Fortunately, Yao Xiang seemed to be dismissive of them, which made them breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Yao Xiang walked on the path, and from time to time he could meet some ordinary clansmen on the side of the road, who no longer had the contempt they had in the past, and hurriedly gave way, looking at the departing Yao Xiang with complicated eyes.

Suddenly, a Tsing Yi leaped from a distance, stepped on the eaves, and sped away outside, suddenly, he stopped, glanced at Yao Xiang on the path below, hesitated, and nodded slightly.

Yao Xiang nodded lightly to show his reaction, this Tsing Yi is Yao Hui.

Yao Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "Yao Xiang, a mineral vein has appeared on the outskirts of Qingshan, and now the three major families of Liuyun Town are there, and most of the clansmen have already passed, can you go and take a look?"

"Not interested. ”

Yao Xiang didn't look back, and left directly, Yao Hui could only smile bitterly when he saw this, and immediately rushed outside.

Yao Xiang came to the end, the dilapidated grass house had collapsed, and in the open space next to it, there was a luxurious and extravagant house that had been built, with all the flowers and trees in front of it, it looked quite magnificent, and there were many people crowded inside, at the marble stone table in the open space, Yao Mo sat on it, a little unsuitable for this lively environment, and chatted with his relatives and friends beside him.

These clansmen gathered around Yao Mo with great diligence, shushing and asking for warmth.

At the door of the door of the door, only two years ago when Yao Xiang rose there was such a scene, Yao Xiang's face was calm, but he sneered in his heart, he slowly walked inside, the crowd found Yao Xiang, hurriedly got out of the way, and shouted one by one: "Little elephant, you are back." ”

"Ouch, my second sister-in-law has been too busy lately these years to come to see you, and now I'm free to come over immediately. ”

"Xiang'er, I'm your sixth uncle, I just came back from the field a few days ago, and I want to celebrate your fifteenth birthday. ”

The crowd was bustling and gossiping.

Yao Xiang's face was not wavering, and he walked straight in front of Yao Mo, Yao Mo's face was a little complicated, everything he wanted to say in his mouth turned into a light sigh, he patted Yao Xiang's shoulder, and said softly: "Good job." ”

A bright smile appeared on Yao Xiang's face, and the smile was innocent like a child who had been appreciated.

"Not long after you left, the patriarch sent people to build this house, and many people came to visit you, but I sent them all away. ”

Yao Mo said in a calm tone, and said slowly, he looked at the people standing on the side, and said with a smile: "Everyone sit down." ”

Yao Xiang said directly: "The family has no place for you to sit, so if you don't want to stand, go out." ”

The smiles on everyone's faces froze slightly, standing there awkwardly, not sitting, not standing, Yao Xiang took a sip of tea, for these people who tend to be inflammatory, he actually doesn't want to waste even a little saliva.

Yao Mo glared at him lightly, then slowly got up, and said with a smile: "There is still a stool inside, I'll take it out for everyone." ”

"No, no, no, no, no, let's take it ourselves. ”

Everyone hurriedly waved their hands, secretly glanced at the expressionless Yao Xiang, and after finding that the latter had no sign of speaking, they hurriedly ran inside and took out the stools one by one, and sat quietly aside, each calculating their own small abacus in their hearts.

"Dad, how are you doing?"

Yao Xiang poured Yao Mo a cup of tea, this tea is a high-priced snow mountain tea, it costs more than a hundred silver taels, Yao Mo has never drunk it a few times in his life, it is estimated that someone from the clan brought it.

Yao Mo smiled and said slowly: "It's much better, the doctor in the town prescribed a few medicines, and the clan doctor recuperated for me, and my body recovered quickly in the past half a month." ”

A middle-aged woman sitting on the side nodded again and again, and said with a flattering smile: "That's right, Brother Yao Mo's body is more and more tough, just take a little recuperation, and I also specially took a ten-year ginseng to honor my brother." ”

The surrounding crowd also picked up the conversation and took out the gifts they brought, Yao Mo responded with a smile, and didn't stop timidly until Yao Xiang glanced at them coldly.

Yao Xiang raised his head and looked at Yao Mo who was holding the teacup in front of him, and the tea in the cup was rippling, the latter's face was a little complicated at the moment, Yao Xiang, who had guessed something, slowly turned his head and glanced at the corner of his clothes exposed behind the corner, his face was indifferent.

He already knew who was coming.

Looking at Yao Mo, who wanted to get up, Yao Xiang shouted softly: "Dad!"

Yao Mo sighed lightly and said quietly: "Xiang'er, tea is like a person, it is divided into three ways, and my father is already the third way, and there is nothing that cannot be passed." ”

Yao Mo looked at the corner and shouted, "Yao Qin, come in and sit down." ”

Yao Xiang picked up the teacup in front of him and silently sipped the tea.

Yao Qin at the corner was silent for a moment, and then walked out with a large bag of medicinal materials and recuperative products, his face was a little complicated, and he didn't dare to look at Yao Mo, who was only middle-aged but extremely old, and finally walked to the door after three pauses, and said in a low voice: "Big brother, these things...... You take it. ”

"Okay, okay, big brother take it, you sit down. ”

Yao Mo nodded, took the things in Yao Qin's hand, and motioned for Yao Qin to sit on the stone bench, Yao Qin gritted his teeth slightly, sat up slowly, put his palms on his thighs, and subconsciously rubbed his thighs.

Yao Qin secretly glanced at Yao Xiang, who just looked at the Qingcha in front of him, his eyes were not squinting, and he was extremely indifferent.

Yao Mo broke the awkward atmosphere and kept chatting with Yao Qin, Yao Qin responded in a panic, and the surrounding crowd was silent, sitting next to him silently.

There was no water in the teapot, Yao Xiang carried the teapot to get the hot water, and when he passed by the gifts piled together, he glanced at the ginseng that Yao Qin brought, and on top was a ginseng with thick arms, and the price was at least about 1,000 silver, for an ordinary clansman, 1,000 silver was already a family's savings for two or three years.

Yao Xiang returned to the table with the teapot, poured a cup for Yao Mo and was about to put the teapot down, Yao Mo glanced at him, Yao Xiang was silent.

Yao Mo's face sank a little, Yao Xiang sighed lightly, and then picked up the teapot and poured a cup into the teacup in front of Yao Qin, Yao Qin quickly got up, flattered, and said, "It's okay, I'll do it myself." ”

Yao Qin lowered his head, was silent for a while, and finally bent down to apologize to Yao Mo: "Big brother, the previous thing was my fault, I ......"

"Okay, okay, the past is gone, don't mention it. ”

Before Yao Qin could finish speaking, Yao Mo waved his hand and interrupted him.

Yao Qin nodded gratefully, and immediately beckoned to the distance, the two figures hesitated for a moment, and slowly walked over, it was Yao Xin and Yao Bian's two sisters and brothers.

"Come here, make amends to your uncle!"

Yao Qin shouted, Yao Xin and Yao Bian walked in front of Yao Mo, the two of them lowered their heads, their faces flushed, and it took a while to squeeze out a sentence from their mouths: "Uncle...... I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, sit down, sit down. ”

Yao Mo waved his hand with a smile and said with a smile: "Whoever doesn't do a little wrong thing when he is young, just know that he can change his mistakes." ”

Yao Xin's little hands were nervously twisted together, her pretty face was flushed, and her beautiful eyes secretly glanced at the young man sitting there with an indifferent face, and she didn't know what to feel in her heart.

Yao Bian on the side was even more worried, for fear that Yao Xiang would come to seek revenge again.

Yao Xiang drank the hot tea in front of him in one gulp, his throat was burned slightly, he got up indifferently and walked towards the room, Yao Qin and the three of them were silent for a while, and finally shouted: "Yao ...... Yao Xiang......!

Their voices were directly interrupted by Yao Xiang, Yao Xiang glanced back at the three of them, his eyes swept from Yao Qin to Yao Bian, and finally stopped at Yao Xin, staring at the turquoise ring on his jade hand, Yao Xin reacted, quickly put his hand behind his back, and stood there awkwardly.

Yao Xiang looked at the surroundings of the full seat again, his voice was indifferent, and he said slowly: "I'm not my father, don't come to tell me anything I'm sorry, you all know what you've done in the past two years, from today on, all the write-offs between us, you are you, I am me, there is no relationship, and there is no connection." ”

Yao Qin's face was bitter, Yao Xin and Yao Bian were also gloomy, their palms were clenched tightly, and they recalled the young man who was close to them two years ago, and their hearts were filled with endless regret.

Yao Xiang returned to the house, closed the door, and the crowd in the courtyard was silent and quiet.

On that rainy night, when Yao Qin took away the quota ring, and when Yao Mo knelt down, there was no more affection and connection between Yao Xiang and them.

There is nothing that is not forgiven, and from now on, it is all strangers.

Yao Xiang leaned against the door, took several deep breaths, calmed the emotions in his heart, and after a while, there was a knock on the door.

Yao Xiang, who was in a good mood, reopened the door, the crowd in the courtyard had already dispersed, only Yao Mo was sitting on the stone bench drinking tea silently, and the one who knocked on the door was an unexpected person for Yao Xiang.
