When Lin Ye came home, Yan Xiniu was still asleep. He didn't know if today's wine was particularly spicy and cold, so he was more drunk than before.
Before going out, Lei Hongliu stopped Lin Ye and told him that since she would be the one to teach him from now on, he would start the first practice today.
It's summer, so catch flies with your hands.
Lin Ye stood at the door and looked at Lei Hongliu's beautiful eyes. There was unquestionable majesty in those eyes, and his face was full of perseverance.
He said, "I don't."
Lei Hongliu's eyes became even more beautiful, so beautiful that they seemed to glow with fire.
"you do not?"
Lei Hongliu took a step forward, but Lin Ye did not retreat as before, looking really determined.
As she walked away, she said, "You'd better say a few nice words so that I won't hit you, but I don't have much time left for you."
Lin Ye: "I feel...dirty."
"dirty?"
Lei Hongliu stopped, but only for a moment. Instead of continuing to walk towards Lin Ye, he turned around and went to the kitchen.
He came back not long after, holding a fresh pig liver with blood in his hand, and threw it at Lin Ye: "I don't think you are afraid of this."
Lin Ye is not afraid.
He stretched out his hand to catch it and looked down. It was really a good piece of pork liver. It was bright in color and plump in shape. My mother-in-law used to love pork liver soup the most.
He leaned over and said, "Thank you, Master."
Lei Hongliu: "Thank you, take it home and hang it until it smells bad and the yard is full of flies!"
Lin Ye: "..."
When he returned home, Lin Ye lowered his head and looked at the pork liver in his hand, wondering if it was really going to stink?
What a waste.
Stir-fried pork liver, cold pork liver, braised pork liver, pork liver soup... Eating more than one liver is better than attracting flies.
So he pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as he took the first step, his feet became heavy and Xiao Zinai was already hanging on his lap.
Lin Ye looked at this little girl with big eyes that seemed to be able to talk. He really had no temper at all.
Then he noticed that Xiao Zina's hair was messy. Although it was no longer dirty, it did look unsightly.
Thinking about it, this little girl hadn't had her hair properly repaired in a few years, so Lin Ye planned to do it himself.
Soak the pork liver in water, throw in two pieces of ginger and a few peppercorns. After Lin Ye washed his hands, he asked Xiao Zinai to move a bench and sit on it.
"Brother, can you do it?"
Xiao Zina was sitting there, looking so well-behaved except when eating.
Lin Ye found a piece of floral cloth and put it around the boy to prevent his hair from falling into his clothes.
He said a little conceitedly: "There is nothing I don't know about food, clothing, housing and transportation. I just noticed today that the master's hair is very beautiful. Her bangs reach under her eyebrows, her temples are straight to her chin, and her hair is long at the back. It looks good with a ponytail tied up, I’ll cut it like that for you.”
When he said these words, he thought of his mother-in-law again, that old lady who loved to be clean and never let him help cut her hair.
Xiao Zinai suddenly said with big eyes: "I believe you."
Lin Ye patted her head gently: "Sit tight and don't move around."
Half a moment later.
Lin Ye lowered his head and looked at Xiao Zinai's head. After being silent for a while, he asked softly: "Is it hot?"
Xiao Zinai nodded: "It's a little hot and sweating because I'm wearing a flower cloth."
Lin Ye: "It's summer, otherwise... let's have a crew cut?"
Although Xiao Zinai was young, she was not stupid. She stood up immediately and ran into the house quickly.
After a while, the boy standing in front of the mirror burst into tears.
Lin Ye walked to the door and looked at her with an apologetic look: "I just didn't cut my bangs neatly at first, so I trimmed them once...twice, three, four, five, six times, so it's a little shorter."
Xiao Zinai raised his hand and pointed at the short hair on his forehead that could already stand up: "Is this a little too short?"
Lin Ye said nonsense seriously: "It's hard to take care of long hair, and you're lazy... And you look like a little boy like this, so it's less troublesome to go out and play."
Xiao Zinai: "I don't!"
Lin Ye: "I know you don't, but now...but don't be afraid, it will grow back in about three to five months."
The kid cried out loudly again.
At this time, Lao Chen came back with a wooden cart. As soon as he entered the hospital, he heard Xiao Zinai's cry. He was startled. He put down the cart and ran over to take a look.
He wanted to pick up the little girl and comfort her, but he knew that he was not allowed to hold the little girl, so his outstretched hand stopped in the air for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
Lao Chen asked eagerly.
Xiao Zina cried and pointed to the hair on his forehead: "Grandpa, look!"
Lao Chen: "Did the dog chew it?"
Lin Ye raised his head and looked at the sky. He felt that the moonlight tonight was particularly unfriendly. Xiaohan, the snow dog, squatted at Lin Ye's feet. When he saw him looking up at the moon, he also looked up at the moon. He looked at it and howled. It whined twice.
After shouting, he looked at Lin Ye, glanced at it, and shook his chin at the moon, which seemed to mean... Why didn't you shout?
As soon as Lin Ye saw the dog like this, he remembered Xue Tongchui's face when he asked him to find the master's wife, so he snorted.
The dog howled twice again, which should be teaching him that you were barking incorrectly. It was like this, not a hum, but a growl.
Lin Ye thought that his life was really beautiful. After arriving in Yunzhou City, Mr. Xin would teach him acupoints, his wife would teach him martial arts, and the dog would also teach him how to bark.
After thinking about it, forget it, art is not a burden.
So he raised his head towards the moon and said, "Ouch."
The dog immediately became excited, circling around the forest leaves, barking as he turned, as if he was saying, look, I will say that you and I are the same.
The boy Nai cried again, sobbing and said, "Grandpa, look at my brother, he cut my hair badly and he's still moaning."
Old Chen glared at Lin Ye: "Apologise to your sister!"
Lin Ye: "Well..."
While cooking, Lin Ye thought several times about how he should tell Chen Weiwei that he went to Tianshui Cliff.
But every time he turned his head and saw the white hair on Lao Chen's temples, he endured it again.
He knew that Lao Chen secretly went outside the martial arts gym every day to watch, but he just didn't let Chen Weiwei see it.
Although Chen Weiwei in the martial arts gym didn't go home and didn't recognize him, at least he could still see him every day.
After going to Tianshui Cliff, the rules of Shangyang Shrine were strict. Disciples were not allowed to go out without permission from their masters. Outsiders were not even allowed to get even half a step closer to Tianshui Cliff. So I don’t know how long it will be before we see each other again.
"Master Lin."
At this moment, Lao Chen suddenly called him.
Lin Ye: "What's wrong?"
After Lao Chen washed the dishes, he rubbed his hands on his apron: "Um...how about Weiwei?"
Just as Lin Ye was about to speak, he heard a dog barking. The barking sound was a bit urgent, as if he was demonstrating or expelling.
"Scream again and I will throw you to death."
Chen Weiwei's voice came from outside the door. Old Chen's expression visibly stiffened. He subconsciously turned around and ran out. But he just took a step and seemed to be afraid to go out.
The dog's expulsive barking angered Chen Weiwei. Originally, he wanted to put aside the grudge and come back to tell his father that he was now a disciple of Shangyang Palace, making his father proud.
By the way, I also told his father that it might be difficult to see him in the future. His master said that he would take him to retreat together for at least a year.
If not, he wouldn't be able to save his face and go home. In fact, his father secretly watches him outside the martial arts gym every day, so how could he not know?
But as soon as he entered the hospital, he felt something was wrong. The dog's barking to drive him away made him feel that his home was occupied.
Seeing Lin Ye and his father busy in the kitchen again, hatred suddenly emerged.
Shouldn't Lin Ye's position belong to him? Shouldn't he and his father wash vegetables together, cook together, talk and laugh together?
"Wei'er... why are you back today?"
Lao Chen held the door frame with his hand and asked in a trembling voice.
Chen Weiwei looked away from the little girl in the distance, as if he felt that all the outsiders in the family were more like masters than him.
"who is she?"
Chen slightly raised his finger and pointed at Xiao Zina.
Lao Chen quickly explained: "This is Mr. Lin's sister. Their brother and sister are renting at our house..."
Chen Weiwei: "I'm renting at your house."
Lao Chen's mouth was open, but he couldn't say the next words.
Chen Weiwei originally wanted to say something to his father, but he didn't want to say it because he was angry, but he also wanted his father to know.
So he turned around and looked at Lin Ye: "I'm here to see you. I have a few words to tell you."
Lin Ye didn't respond, just looked at Chen Weiwei.
"I will be in seclusion with my master for a year, so I will write down the punch I will give you every day. When I come out of seclusion in a year, I will look for you."
He raised his chin and said to Lin Ye: "In half a year, the martial arts disciples will go to the Beiye Army Camp for evaluation. I can't catch up, but for the evaluation in a year's time, I will wait for you at the Beiye Army Camp."
Lin Ye nodded: "Okay, I'll see you in a year."
Chen Weiwei specifically asked for leave tonight from his teacher. He originally planned to stay at home for one night before going back to reconcile with his father and have a good chat.
But at this time, he no longer wanted to stay any longer and turned to leave.
Lao Chen said with a trembling voice: "You haven't eaten yet, right? If...if you're not in a hurry to go back, why don't you leave after eating?"
Chen Weiwei stopped for a moment, and the annoyance in his heart became heavier. He thought, you only left me to eat? You don’t even have the intention to stay with me for one night?
With these two outsiders living at home, do you feel like you have both children and a daughter now?
He wanted to stride away, but suddenly his heart hurt, and he almost staggered from the pain.
It was also because of this pain that he changed his mind.
Chen turned around slightly: "Okay, then we'll leave after dinner."
He raised his finger and pointed at Lin Ye: "I won't eat what he makes."
Then he said to his father: "Go and cook me a bowl of noodle soup."
Lao Chen nodded immediately and nodded vigorously: "Okay, okay! I will cook it for you now. You go back to the house to rest for a while, and I will cook it for you right away."
Chen walked slightly toward the main room. Xiao Zinai sat on the bench and looked at him. She felt that this brother was bad, had a bad temper, and was a bit scary.
Chen Weiwei walked to the door of the main room and saw the bed in the room at a glance. Looking inside, he saw Lin Ye's clothes hanging in the room where he used to live.
"No more! You can feed the dog when you're ready."
He shouted towards the kitchen and strode away.
Old Chen chased out of the kitchen and only saw Chen Weiwei's back. He chased out the door and saw that Chen Weiwei had already gotten on a carriage.
As the tall horse pulling the cart screamed, the carriage moved forward slowly, and Lao Chen continued to chase after the carriage.
"Wait until I make some noodles for you before leaving."
"Just do it for your tenants. I can't afford it... There's no need to pursue it anymore. Just go back."
Lao Chen stopped in his tracks and watched the carriage go further and further away with eyes filled with tears.
His whole body was shaking, he was shaking completely uncontrollably.
After a moment, his palms felt warm.
Xiao Zinai took one of his hands and said in a very soft voice: "Grandpa, is that brother your child?"
"Yes......"
"Are you reluctant to let him go?"
"I am."
The kid said, "Then you should have told him to stay just now."
Lao Chen shook his head: "I shouted, but he hated me in his heart, so he probably wouldn't stay."
Xiao Zinai shook his head: "You didn't yell. You yelled to leave after dinner. Grandpa, you should have yelled for him to stay."
Old Chen was stunned for a moment, then looked down at Xiao Zinai: "Am I wrong again?"
Xiao Zinai shook his head again: "It's not that grandpa was wrong. Grandpa is such a good person, how could he be wrong?"
Lin Ye walked to Lao Chen and said after a moment of silence: "Uncle Chen, everyone will grow up. He will be sensible when he is older."
Old Chen looked at Lin Ye: "Master Lin, you are of an average age, but you are much more sensible than Wei'er."
Because of this sentence, Lin Ye thought of his childhood when he didn't dare to look back, and also thought of the three years he spent with his mother-in-law.
"Not a good thing."
He muttered to himself and turned back.
