Chapter 19 People go, the sorrow is hard to disappear
After a full fifteen years of going to Zou Yi, as the old Taoist traveled to every corner of China, the eight-year-old baby had now become a masculine and handsome guy. After fifteen years of training, his childishness had already been removed, and his body naturally exuded a sense of elegance.
Back at Qiyun Mountain, Zou Yi first sent the old Taoist back to the mountain, and then came to Liucun alone to take a look. Except for a few more small buildings, Liucun did not change much. When he recalled every bit of his childhood, his face was filled with a charming smile.
On Zou's mother's grave, she placed the offerings she brought. After kowtowed, Zou Yi sat on the ground and said in a crying voice: "Mom, the unfilial son Zou Yi has come to see you. My son has been leaving for fifteen years. You have suffered over the years."
"Mom, my son has been to Beijing. I know you came from there. I will let you go back openly."
"Master asked me to take the college entrance exam this year, but I won't let you down. I will definitely be admitted to the best university in the country."
......
Sitting on the ground, Zou Yi talked about all afternoon, and told all the experiences over the past eighteen years. He didn't even drink a sip of water in the middle, just because he was afraid that his mother would be anxious to wait.
In the evening, Zou Yi stepped into Liu Village again and headed towards the Liu family's courtyard.
Liu's house has not changed in recent years. Compared with those small buildings, it has a bit more ancient atmosphere. When I recalled the scene of teasing Mr. Liu with Xiaopang when I was a child, Zou Yi smiled knowingly.
"Is anyone here?"
It was almost the same as it was more than ten years ago. Every household in Liu Village still had no habit of closing the door. When he came to the yard, Zou Yi shouted habitually.
"Who"
A clear voice sounded in my ears, but Zou Yi had never heard it before and couldn't help frowning.
Just saw a woman in her thirties walking out of the inner room, holding a pot lid in her hand, looking like she was cooking supper. When she saw that she was a young man and was dressed well, she said politely: "Young man, are you looking for someone?"
Zou Yi nodded and said, "Isn't this Liu's house? Is Grandpa Liu here?"
"This is Liu's house, right?"
The woman replied, but then said: "Which grandpa Liu do you look for? Our family's surname is Liu."
"Oh, that's right. I'll look for Grandpa Liu Lin," Zou Yi said with a smile.
"Are you looking for my grandpa?"
The woman was surprised and asked, "Young man, how could you know my grandpa?"
After hearing her question, Zou Yi was a little embarrassed, so he organized a speech and said with a smile: "My name is Zou Yi. I used to live in Liucun. Xiaopang and I are good friends, Liu Chengzhi."
"You are Zou Yi?"
As the woman said, she put down the lid of the pot in her hand, ran up and down to look him up and down, and laughed and said, "Why, little guy, don't know the eldest sister anymore?"
"Are you?" Zou Yi looked puzzled.
"Boy, you and Xiaozhi had peeked at me taking a shower before, but they forgot so quickly?" the woman cursed with a smile.
Zou Yi took off her magic grab, took a step back, and said excitedly: "Ah, you are Sister Ye."
"You guy is a little conscientious, remember your sister." The woman was not shy and said with a smile.
The woman's name is Liu Ye, and she is the youngest daughter of Liu Qianshi, the third son of Liu Lin. Because Liu Qianshi had been working in other places at that time, she rarely went back to Liu Village. Zou Yi had seen her during festivals and festivals, but it was said that women changed a lot. After so many years, he could not remember it. However, if you want to take a peek at the bath, it was really not Zou Yi. Liu Ye accompanied Liu Qianshi home to visit relatives. It was summer and he must have a bath at night. At that time, the rural bathing was a small room with a water pipe on it. A pot of hot water that had adjusted the temperature was poured into the water storage bucket on the roof, and then the valve could be opened.
The fat man was also curious and said that there was something different about girls and boys. He encouraged Zou Yi to peek at Liu Ye for a bath. Zou Yi was still a little moved at first, but when he heard that he was peeking at Liu Chengzhi's sister taking a bath, a basin of cold water was poured down, and the idea was extinguished. However, Liu Chengzhi was still excited. After reading it, he did not forget to brag in front of Liu Ye, and he also said Zou Yi also cried, which made Liu Ye cry at the time, and just covered the blame directly on his head. For this matter, Zou Yi also accompanied Liu Chengzhi to recite the Three-character Classic for several days.
"Hehe, I didn't do that," Zou Yi quickly explained, but the words were not credible at all.
"Oh, I'm so old, I still refuse to admit it. My sister is not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Liu Ye teased with a smile.
Zou Yi had no choice but to raise his hand to surrender. He couldn't talk about this anymore. If he continued, he would only become darker and darker. Then he changed the topic and said, "Is Grandpa Liu here?"
Speaking of Liu Lin, Liu Ye stopped joking and said with a wry smile: "Xiao Yi, you are late for coming back. Grandpa left seven years ago. I originally wanted to find you, but I can't find it. But don't worry, your three loud little Zhis have kowtowed you."
"Have you gone? Seven years?"
Zou Yi was stunned for a moment. In this world, except for his master, Mr. Liu is closest to him. He originally thought that he would be filial to him this time, but he didn't expect that he would hear the bad news as soon as he came.
"Xiaoyi, don't be sad. Grandpa said you when he left," Liu Ye comforted.
Grasping her arm, Zou Yi asked anxiously: "What did Grandpa Liu say?"
"Oh, little brat, your hand is too strong."
After being grabbed by him, Liu Ye suddenly screamed, but he didn't know that Zou Yi was also excited for a moment and accidentally used his internal strength. After realizing it, he hurriedly let go and stood aside, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Sister Ye, you've hurt you."
Liu Ye waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you are nervous, grandpa, let's talk about you, I can still care about you since I was a child. Grandpa regarded you as a grandson. Although his surname is not Liu, grandpa also wrote your name into the Liu family tree."
"I know, Grandpa Liu loves me." Zou Yi said crying after wiped his tears.
Before Zou's mother died, she entrusted Zou Yi to Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu has taken great care of him over the years. When every household had no surplus food, he always asked his grandson to secretly bring some food to Zou Yi, and the clothes were also sent directly with what Liu Chengzhi wore. Back then, these clothes were stored at home, and when there were children in the future, he continued to wear them. Mr. Liu did this and really treated Zou Yi as his own child.
But what Zou Yi didn't know was that in the second year after he left Liu Village, Mr. Liu held a Liu family meeting, and opposed the opposition and wrote his name into the Liu family genealogy. This was also the first foreign clan member in the Liu family genealogy. Moreover, Mr. Liu directly added Zou Yi's name to the household registration of Liu Chengzhi's family. In this way, he really became a family with Liu Yecheng.
"What did Grandpa Liu say in the end?" After all, after experiencing outside for fifteen years, he has experienced the ups and downs of life. Zou Yi quickly adjusted his mentality.
"Grandpa said that if Yi'er comes back, tell him that Grandpa Liu has been thinking about him for the past few years. He wanted to see him come back, but he won't live that day. Grandpa Liu has nothing to give to him. This pair of jade pendants is inherited by the Liu family. One is given to Chengzhi, and this one is given to you. No matter how angry you are outside in the future, when you come back, when you go back to Liu Village, this is your home, and the Liu family comes forward to vent your anger for you."
Before Liu Ye could finish his words, Zou Yi's tears fell down again. He didn't wipe them, but just listened quietly and shed tears quietly.
"Grandpa also said that Cheng Zhi is much more sensible than before. Thank you for giving you the opportunity to take him with you, and he will be relieved to be with you."
After listening to Liu Ye’s narration, Zou Yi nodded with tears on his face and said, “Don’t worry, Grandpa Liu, as long as Yi’er has this ability, I will take care of you for your care.”
After staying at the Liu family for dinner, he sighed again after meeting Liu Chengzhi's parents. Liu Chengzhi was in college at SH and was already in his senior year. He was about to graduate and was busy looking for a job. Although he didn't meet, he left his mobile phone number. It was already 2007, and mobile phones were basically popular, and even Zou Yi had one in his pocket.
After dinner, under the auspices of Liu's father, the ancestral hall was opened. Zou Yi went in to burn incense and kowtow to Mr. Liu. Since he had written it into the Liu family genealogy, as a respect, Zou Yi naturally also burned incense and kowtow to the ancestors of the Liu family.
Liu's father wanted to keep Zou Yi in Liu's house overnight, but he refused and said he wanted to go up the mountain to accompany his master.
