Chapter 829: The House of Benevolence
Miss Pan, in fact, Brother Liu has no ill will towards you, and he didn't mean to drive you away...... He just didn't want the Pan family to get into trouble. ”
On the way to Pan's Mansion, Pan Yuyin had been sullen, and Li Haitang knew that she was depressed because of what Liu Xunyi had just said.
It's a pity that even though Li Haitang persuaded her with good words, Pan Yuyin was still sad and unmoved.
"Miss Pan, you should know who Brother Liu is? It's not an exaggeration to say that he licks blood from the knife all day long, and pins his head to the waistband of his trousers. Li Haitang still did not give up, and continued, "People who walk the rivers and lakes, one more person by their side to accompany them, the more concern they have in their hearts." Who is the most chic person in the rivers and lakes? That is, there is no father, no mother, no wife and no children, and it is best that the seven aunts and eight aunts are all dead, without any worries, and alone. Only such a person can go out open-mindedly, and can do whatever he wants, without worrying about being hunted down by the enemy. ”
"You're not right!" Pan Yuyin, who had been silent all the way, suddenly spoke, her tone was extremely stubborn, "There are countless people in the rivers and lakes, don't they live well?"
"Is it really good?" Li Haitang raised his eyebrows and asked meaningfully, "Don't mention it from afar, let's just say that Luo Tianjin, who had infinite scenery in the past, can sit in the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, and his power and prestige in the rivers and lakes are definitely second to none." But even if a character like him is as powerful, the end is equally miserable. When he died, the orphans and widows he left behind, aren't they pitiful?"
"This ......"
"In the rivers and lakes, the more a person cares, the more weaknesses there are. Li Haitang seemed to notice that Luo Tianjin's topic was too heavy, which made Pan Yuyin, who was already upset, even worse, so he hurriedly changed his words, "The scenery on the stage is not the scenery, and it is the real lucky person to be able to get off the stage safely." The former 'Fuhu Knife' Mo Cen was well versed in the dangers and unfathomability of the rivers and lakes, and immediately washed his hands after having a wife and children, praying for a peaceful old age. It's a pity...... It is easy to enter the rivers and lakes, but it is difficult to exit the rivers and lakes. ”
"But Brother Liu is not from the rivers and lakes......"
"Although Brother Liu is an official of the imperial court, he is also an out-and-out Jianghu person. Li Haitang corrected, "Once you step into the rivers and lakes, you will be a thin person for a lifetime." Miss Pan, you should be considerate of Brother Liu's affection. ”
"I ......" In the face of Li Haitang's Xiaozhi and emotion, Pan Yuyin couldn't help but fall silent.
After hesitating again and again, Li Haitang cautiously tested: "Forgive me for talking too much, I want to ...... Ask something you shouldn't ask. ”
"Huh?"
"Are you...... Like Brother Liu?"
"This ......" In Li Haitang's curious and apprehensive gaze, Pan Yuyin's cheeks suddenly turned red, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can I ......?"
As for this, Pan Yuyin's voice stopped abruptly, and her face was as red as a ripe apple.
"There are no outsiders here, and I won't give away your secrets......"
"It's nonsense at all!" Pan Yuyin's expression was straight, and he denied it in an unquestionable tone, "I only regard Brother Liu as a friend and brother, and taking care of him is also a matter of loyalty entrusted by others, and there are no messy thoughts in your mouth!"
"Really?"
"Every word is true!" Pan Yuyin suddenly stopped and solemnly admonished, "Don't mention this kind of chasing after the wind and shadows in the future, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face!"
A man and a woman froze in front of the public, and pedestrians coming and going on the street couldn't help but cast curious glances.
Pan Yuyin has always been easy and gentle, but at this moment, she suddenly spoke harshly, which startled Li Haitang, who was caught off guard, and hurriedly agreed: "It's me who is talking nonsense, I hope Miss Pan doesn't remember the villain." ”
Seemingly embarrassed by the good things around him, Pan Yuyin glared at Li Haitang "fiercely", and then left quickly. Li Haitang smiled and followed behind, not daring to gag again.
After a while, the two of them came to a shop on the corner called "Wangchuan Silk Village".
"This silk shop is my father's business, and behind it is my family's house. Pan Yuyin explained, "You keep talking all the way, you must have a dry mouth, go in and have a cup of tea!"
"This ......"
"When you get to the door, if you don't let you in, isn't it hospitality?" As for this, Pan Yuyin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and hurriedly reminded, "But after you see my family, you must, you must not say that you are from Longxiang Mountain." ”
"Why?"
"Because of you, Xu Ren of Longxiang Mountain, our family was ruined and killed...... My grandfather and second uncle all died because of him. Pan Yuyin's expression darkened, and her face was sad.
"This ......"
Li Haitang knows very little about everything Xu Ren did in Yingchuan. Therefore, when I heard Pan Yuyin's explanation, I couldn't help but be shocked.
"But you can rest assured, Xu Ren is Xu Ren, you are you, although you are all from Longxiang Mountain, but ...... I'm not going to confuse you guys. Pan Yuyin said, "Grandpa taught me since I was a child that I must be a man with clear grievances and grievances, have a head for wrongs, and have a master for debts. Moreover, I know something about you during this time, you are different from Xu Ren, he has lost his conscience and is extremely vicious, while you are kind-hearted and honest with others. Therefore, I will never implicate Xu Ren's sins in you. ”
After speaking, Pan Yuyin smiled sincerely at Li Haitang, who was eager to relax.
"Oh my God, how can there be such a simple woman in the world?" Li Haitang was secretly shocked in his heart.
Pan Yuyin's kindness, kindness and simplicity made Li Haitang both surprised and moved, and at the same time ashamed.
In fact, although Li Haitang is not as violent and wanton as Xu Ren, he is not as righteous and friendly as Pan Yuyin imagined.
On the contrary, Li Haitang can be ranked with Xu Ren among the top ten impermanences in Longxiang Mountain, his hands are also stained with blood, and there are many unjust souls under the arrows, and most of them have no grudges against Li Haitang.
The ancestral teachings and atmosphere of Longxiang Mountain are destined to make every disciple of Longxiang Mountain not a good person.
Li Haitang also did the same thing as Xu Ren, and was ordered to kill some people who had nothing to do with him.
In other words, if the person who was ordered to go to Yingchuan back then was not Xu Ren, but Li Haitang, what would he do...... It may not be more merciful than Xu, and the result is no different.
Even today, Li Haitang's sacrifice to protect Liu Xunyi is also acting in accordance with the orders of Yun Chasing the Moon, not as Pan Yuyin imagined...... Out of camaraderie.
With different backgrounds, different circumstances, and different thoughts, Pan Yuyin is destined to never be able to understand why Li Haitang is willing to sacrifice his life and forget death for an order.
Similarly, Li Haitang will never understand why Pan Yuyin thinks of everyone in the world for the good, and has no defense at all.
"Although I know that you and Xu Ren are not the same kind of people, after all, you are from Longxiang Mountain, and my family ......"
"Miss Pan!" Suddenly, Li Haitang, who was distracted, was shocked and interrupted with a smile, "I...... You also want to find out the news for Brother Liu, why don't you go to the house next time to disturb?"
"You ......"
"Little sister?"
Before Pan Yuyin could answer, a voice full of surprise suddenly came from the silk village. Immediately after, Pan Yun, who was full of excitement, stumbled out of the door.
"Brother!"
As soon as she saw Pan Yun, Pan Yuyin couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward. In the turbulent times, the brother and sister have been thinking about each other, and today they are reunited safely, and they can't help but cry with joy.
A few months ago, you said goodbye without saying goodbye, and my father and mother and I were afraid of you all day long. ”
"Brother, I was wrong......"
"In any case, if you can come back safely, my brother will be satisfied. Pan Yun looked Pan Yuyin up and down with distressed eyes, "Little sister, you must have suffered a lot outside these days, and you look a lot thinner." ”
"Brother, this is Li Haitang......"
"It turned out to be Brother Li, disrespectful!" As soon as Pan Yuyin's words came out, Pan Yun hurriedly bowed to Li Haitang, and thanked him with a thousand thanks, "Look at my brother's platform, his appearance is extraordinary, and he must be a benevolent and righteous man." As I expected, it must be Brother Tai who sent the little sister home, please accept Pan Yun's worship!"
"This ......"
Looking at Pan Yun, who was incoherent due to excitement in his heart, Li Haitang was a little overwhelmed and hurriedly returned the salute.
Seeing that the two were very funny to each other, Pan Yuyin couldn't help laughing and burst into laughter.
"Come with me and see my parents, so that they can be reassured. ”
After that, Pan Yun, who was in a hurry, ignored Pan Yuyin's defense, and dragged her and Li Haitang into the silk village without saying anything.
Walk through the courtyard and go straight to the inner house.
"Father, mother, little sister is back!"
The reunion of the family after a long absence is another touching scene.
Although Li Haitang is an outsider, when he saw the true feelings of their family of four hugging each other and crying, he couldn't help but feel touched and emotional.
Today's Pan Wen couple are a little older than back then. But their spirit is very full, especially looking at Pan Wen's increasingly rich body, it shows that their family's life in Lin'an is very comfortable and comfortable, at least more comfortable than when they were in Yingchuan.
After experiencing a catastrophe of life and death, Pan Wen's family has long seen through the warmth and coldness of the world, so they no longer compete for fame and fortune as they did back then, and they no longer even seek to be rich and rich. The money from the sale of property back then was enough for their family to be rich and prosperous for a lifetime.
Now, Pan Wen opened a silk village in Lin'an City and did some small business, although it was not as beautiful as when he was in Yingchuan, but at least he could live a stable life and enjoy peace.
"Yuyin, this is ......"
After the joy, the tearful Pan Wenfang realized the existence of Li Haitang and hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea to the guests.
"Father, mother, his name is Li Haitang, yes...... A friend of mine. ”
"Friends?"
Mr. and Mrs. Pan Wen glanced at each other, and a strange look of secrecy poured out of their faces.
"How old is the little brother?" Mrs. Pan looked Li Haitang up and down, and asked meaningfully, "Where is the person, what does the family do......?
"Mother!" gradually perceiving Mrs. Pan's intentions, Pan Yuyin couldn't help but blush, ashamed and annoyed, "What are you talking about?"
"Huh!" Pan Wen taught him seriously, "Your mother is not talking nonsense, now that you are not a child, it is time to think about your life's affairs." As the saying goes, 'Men should marry and women should get married,' and it's not a shameful thing, so why can't you say it? Besides, if you marry a husband and have children, someone can also restrain you, save you from running around, and your father and mother will worry about you. ”
"That's it!" Pan Yun said jokingly, "Brother Li is a talent, and he is very compatible with you......"
"Oops!" At this moment, Pan Yuyin couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and said in a panic, "Li Haitang is a friend of Brother Liu, not what you imagined." ”
"Brother Liu?" Pan Wen frowned slightly, "Which Brother Liu?"
"Of course, it's Liu Xunyi. ”
"Liu Xunyi?"
Hearing Pan Yuyin's answer, Pan Wen and Pan Yun's faces changed at the same time, and their expressions became more and more strange.
"Could it be...... Have you been with Liu Xunyi all this time?" asked Mrs. Pan in a low voice.
"Don't hide it, my daughter said goodbye without saying goodbye, it was Brother Xunliu who went......"
"What?" Pan Wen interrupted Pan Yuyin's explanation impatiently, "Where is Liu Xunyi now?"
"Brother Liu is an official of the imperial court, and he should return to Tianji Pavilion to resume his life. Wait until he is done with the affairs of the court......"
Li Haitang didn't finish speaking, but his voice stopped abruptly. Because he was shocked to find that after hearing his answer, Pan Wen's and Pan Yun's faces instantly turned pale as paper.
Seeing this scene, Li Haitang's hand holding the teacup instantly stopped in mid-air. At the same time, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in my heart.
"What?" Li Haitang frowned, cautiously probing, "Could it be that Brother Liu ...... Shouldn't you come back?"
"This ......"
Hearing this, Pan Wen and his wife looked at each other, but they did not answer for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Pan Yuyin suddenly got up and asked urgently, "Is it that what happened in Lin'an City during the days when Brother Liu sent off his relatives?"
"It's not just a change, it's just a change!" Pan Yun couldn't help but feel entangled in his heart and blurted out.
"Yun'er, don't talk nonsense......"
"I'm not talking nonsense!" Pan Yun said indignantly despite the dissuasion of Pan Wen and his wife, "Today's court is no longer the court of four months ago. Today's Tianji Pavilion...... It's no longer the Tianji Pavilion of four months ago. ”
