Sensing Old Man Li's weirdness, Xiao Qing touched his forehead worriedly, "Dad, are you okay?"
Old Man Li chuckled, tears glistening in his eyes.
"What could possibly happen? She finally let go before she left. It was too late for me to be happy. How could anything happen?"
As he spoke, he slowly said: "The old woman must not know it until now. I quietly hung a red string next to her. Now, only my and her names are left on the tree..."
Liu Shengsheng next to her was slightly surprised. She glanced at Nan Muze, who was also confused.
Even Xiao Qing looked at him confused, "Dad, what are you talking about?"
Old Man Li shook his head, "Children don't understand or understand adult matters."
With that said, he planned to walk into the house.
Liu Shengsheng stood up suddenly, "Your name is... Muchen?"
She remembers it clearly!
During the day today, the red string Jing Chun picked up had Ye Wan'er and Mu Chen written on it.
At that time, Jing Chun was still complaining about the blurred characters. Now it seems that the last name should be blurred...
Ye Wan'er is Granny Ye, and Mu Chen is Li Mu Chen.
Is it Old Man Li?
Old Man Li was obviously stunned, a little curious as to how Liu Shengsheng knew his name.
Liu Shengsheng understood everything instantly. She never thought that there would be someone accompanying Granny Ye all the time...
It seems that the love and hatred from decades ago are also very sad.
Thinking about it, Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "The rope you tied was loose, and she asked us to tighten it again."
Old Man Li's eyes instantly turned red.
"Does she know?"
"kindness."
Old Man Li couldn't help crying anymore. He trembled and returned to the room step by step.
When the door closed, a burst of crying finally came from the room.
The emotions that had been suppressed for most of the day finally broke out.
The whole courtyard was shrouded in sadness.
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Qing fell asleep lying next to the fire, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Nan Muze took off his coat and put it on Liu Shengsheng.
"It turns out that so many things can happen in just one day."
Liu Shengsheng said: "The story of decades ended in one day. I don't quite understand. If Old Man Li likes Granny Ye, and Granny Ye has been a widow all her life, why would he..."
"He also never married."
Nan Muze spoke, then looked at Xiao Qing not far away and said, "She said that she is not her biological child."
For some reason, Liu Shengsheng's eyes became wet.
It turns out that it is not earth-shattering love that can move people. Small love that happens to ordinary people can also make people burst into tears.
Perhaps because she felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard was too depressing, Liu Shengsheng had no intention of sleeping, so she went for a walk outside.
Nan Muze followed her quietly, and unknowingly wandered under the marriage tree.
Nan Muze went into the wooden house in the dark and took out a red rope, "Shengsheng, can we hang one too?"
Under the moonlight, Liu Shengsheng looked at him quietly.
After a long while he said: "This doesn't work either, don't die."
After saying that, she turned and left.
But Nan Muze still wrote down his name and hung it on the tree, and then he caught up with Liu Shengsheng again, "When the war is over, are you willing to go back with me?"
"I'm not your princess, so I won't return."
"Then I will marry you as my concubine again."
Liu Shengsheng sneered, "Forget it, I don't want to stay alone in an empty room."
Nan Muze pulled her into his arms and kissed her directly.
"Well……"
Under the moonlight, the two figures hugged each other tightly. Nan Muze did not let go for a long time, and the kiss was full of longing.
Finally, he let go, "You finally admitted it."
Liu Shengsheng wiped her lips and took a step back.
"Admit what? I didn't!"
"Grandma Ye makes sense. We should cherish the present and focus on the present. The future is too far away and we cannot calculate it so comprehensively. And the future is not far away. As long as you and I stay united, we will grow old together."
Nan Muze looked at her intently, "Grandma Ye's words have benefited me a lot. In the future, I will love you without reservation and openly. Are you willing to accept me again?"
Liu Shengsheng just looked at him quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
"If you accept, just give me a hug..."
With that said, Nan Muze closed his eyes.
After closing his eyes, his hearing became particularly sensitive.
The sound of unhurried footsteps could be heard in his ears, and every step stepped on the tip of his heart.
But as the footsteps got farther and farther, he understood something.
When he opened his eyes, Liu Shengsheng was no longer in front of him.
A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he still quickened his pace to catch up.
On the way back, they found that many houses in the village had lights on. From time to time, a doctor would come out of a villager's house with a medicine box, and then rush to another villager's house.
Occasionally, someone would sit at the door and cry.
The only doctor was obviously in a hurry...
Passing by a house, I stood at the door and heard the woman inside shouting.
"A bandit who kills with a thousand swords, is there any royal law? Is there any heavenly justice?"
The child next to me started crying.
The doctor on the side sighed, "Those bandits have no humanity. They will kill everyone they see. Anyone who has come into contact with them has been stabbed. All the villagers who have been robbed by them have been stabbed. It is not just your family. You It’s time to cheer up, we still have children to take care of.”
"I won't take it anymore. I'm going to report it to the official! It's unreasonable! I want them to pay the price!"
"The war is still going on at the border. The government is so busy that they don't have the energy to care about the people's affairs. Bandits are everywhere and are ready to attack. Not to mention our small village is being targeted. Many larger villages have been looted. Our place At least the bandit ran away and things are much better now, so please stop crying and express your condolences!"
"..."
While talking, the doctor had already walked out with the medicine box and rushed to another house.
Looking at the tragic situation of this village, Liu Shengsheng felt a little moved in her heart.
"It turns out that the war has caused so much damage to the people, and has so many impacts in all aspects..."
Nan Muze nodded, "Well, this is just the tip of the iceberg."
"We have to stop the war."
Liu Shengsheng seemed to have made up her mind.
Nan Muze touched her head, "Yes."
Xiaoqing had already woken up when we returned.
She sat blankly by the fire, not knowing what she was thinking.
Liu Shengsheng did not disturb her and just stood by quietly.
I accidentally discovered that Old Man Li had sat beside the coffin at some point and lay on top of the coffin, as if he had fallen asleep.
Xiao Qing ignored him and just sat on the ground with red eyes, holding a piece of letter paper in his hand.
Liu Shengsheng said: "Xiao Qing, do you need some clothes for your father to put on?"...
Xiao Qing finally looked at Liu Shengsheng, tears rolling down her eyes.
"Girl, I have no family anymore..."
Liu Shengsheng's expression changed, she looked at the pesticide bottle next to Old Man Li, and ran over on the spot.
She stretched out her hand and probed the tip of Old Man Li's nose.
I'm out of breath...
