Tap tap tap~
A series of hurried footsteps sounded on the floor, and a fat middle-aged man looked nervous and ran quickly to where his daughter was.
Bang~
When the private room door was opened, Wang Tongfu immediately smelled a pungent smell, and a flash of familiarity flashed through his mind, but he didn't think much about it and instead turned his attention to the young man sitting on the sofa.
His daughter, Wang Yao, was slumped on the ground, her pretty face pale, her eyes flashing with fear, and she didn't dare to move.
"dad!"
Seeing his father, Wang Yao's frightened eyes flashed with joy, as if he encountered a little light in the endless darkness. He stood up quickly, with tears in his eyes, and rushed towards his father. go.
At this moment, she is no longer an unruly young lady, but a girl who has been wronged and needs her father's care and protection.
Hugging his daughter who was rushing toward him, Wang Tongfu looked protective and asked with concern: "Yao'er, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?"
"without......"
Wang Yao choked and shook her head, and looked back at Zeng Yi who was sitting beside her with some palpitations.
The man didn't do anything to him. He just scared himself when he did it before. However, while waiting for his father to arrive and staying with him, he felt an inexplicable pressure and fear.
"Okay, the lyrical time is over. I didn't touch your precious daughter at all, don't worry."
Just when Wang Tongfu asked what was going on with his daughter, a cold voice interrupted the conversation between the two of them, and they couldn't help but look over there.
"You are Wang Tongfu, right?" Zeng Yi asked coldly, looking at the fat middle-aged man in luxurious clothes in front of him.
"Yes...yes, I am Wang Tongfu. I don't know how to respect the soul master. Where did I offend you?" Wang Tongfu pulled the girl behind him and stared at the stranger in front of him with a vigilant expression. face.
He was sure that he had never seen this person before, so why did he want to find him?
Zeng Yi did not speak, but turned his attention to Wang Yao who was hiding behind Wang Tongfu and peeking at him, "You go out, your father and I have something to talk about."
"Yao'er, please go out first. I'll talk to this adult."
"But father..." Wang Yao couldn't help but worry about her father. She knew that although her father was also a soul master, his soul power was only level 23. A second-level soul master, even she could not help but worry about him. It's better to let her father stay with such a terrifying person, she is very worried.
"Be obedient, it's okay, go out." Wang Tongfu said to his daughter very gently. He was very pleased that his daughter cared about him.
At home, my daughter is the best to me.
The soul master who was looking for him had already explained the general situation here to him. The man in front of him could subdue two soul masters and a great soul master in an instant. His strength was at least at the soul sect level. Facing such a soul master, Fulan Restaurant does not have the strength to fight against such a person.
"Then be careful." Wang Yao said, looked at Zeng Yi tremblingly, and retreated.
After seeing his daughter exit the box, Wang Tongfu looked at Zeng Yi with a respectful expression, "Sir, you can tell me if you have anything to say. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can help you."
"What do you think you can help me with?" Zeng Yi couldn't help but smile, stood up, and walked slowly towards him.
Seeing this young man walking slowly around him, looking at him with disdain in his eyes, Wang Tongfu became even more panicked.
Seeing Wang Tongfu lowering his head and not speaking, Zeng Yi smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, I came to you with no bad intentions. I was just entrusted by someone to give you something."
"Entrusted by someone? What to give?" Wang Tongfu couldn't help but be curious.
"Well, that's it." Zeng Yi pointed to the ground.
Wang Tongfu looked at the pickles scattered on the ground, his eyes couldn't help but be lost in thought, and many memories flashed through his mind.
Seeing Wang Tongfu's dull look, Zeng Yi said again: "Let me tell you something. A few days ago, when I was passing by a field on the road, I saw an old man lying in the field, so I rescued the old man. Such a hot temperature makes even me, a soul master, feel a little uncomfortable, let alone an ordinary person without soul power. I think if I had discovered it later, the old man might have gone to the west. Do you think so? ?”
Hearing this, Wang Tongfu was shocked, but remained silent.
Zeng Yi continued, "After that, I sent the old man to his home and stayed at his home for one night. I also learned that the old man lived alone. He said that his wife had passed away last year. ..."
This sentence hit Wang Tongfu's heart like a boulder. His eyes were full of disbelief, and he staggered back two steps and almost fell to the ground.
"I'm a little confused about this. If the old man has a wife, then he doesn't have any children? Why doesn't the old man even have anyone to pay homage to? Are all his children dead?"
"But the old man said that he still has a son who lives in Tianshui City. When he talked about this, the old man's face was still a little proud. Before I left, the old man asked me to go to Tianshui City and pick up this jar. When he gave the vegetables to his son, he said that he was incapable of giving anything valuable to his son, so he could only give these pickles that he made. He also said that the pickles he made were his son’s favorite when he was young. have eaten."
"But, I think the old man lives in Tianshui City and is already the son of a restaurant owner. He has eaten a lot of delicacies, so he probably can't eat these pickles."
"Are you right what I said? Wang Tongfu."
But at this time, Wang Tongfu was already in tears. He couldn't stop crying. He knelt on the ground with a pop, grabbed the pickles on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Good... delicious, delicious..." Wang Tongfu choked while chewing. However, Zeng Yi couldn't bear to see him look like this, so he grabbed his shirt and lifted it up.
"Don't think you've redeemed yourself by doing this, don't disgust me!" Zeng Yi roared with a ferocious expression.
"You have a beautiful family in Tianshui City, a lovely daughter, and such a huge career. But! You left your parents who worked hard to raise you in the countryside and ignored them for more than ten years. You are like this Why do you have the nerve to cry here? Go back and cry to your father!"
"You left your parents in the countryside to live a hard life, but you enjoy the happiness in Tianshui City. You eat big fish and meat, while your parents only have pickles and white porridge! You sleep on soft bed cotton, but your parents sleep on wet Cold wooden planks! Do you know that wooden plank bed? As soon as you sit on it, it creaks, as if it will collapse in the next second! In this way, you can sleep peacefully!"
"You have such a family fortune, is it difficult to be an old man? How much can he use you for? Your conscience has been eaten by a dog!"
As he talked, Zeng Yi could no longer control his emotions. As for Wang Tongfu, his tears kept flowing like a dam that had opened its gates, and his eyes were dull and lifeless.
After loosening his clothes, Wang Tongfu fell to the ground weakly, sitting on his knees with silent tears. Zeng Yi stared at him, his chest rising and falling, obviously caused by the excitement just now.
After coming here for a long time, Zeng Yicai calmed down.
Looking at Wang Tongfu, Zeng Yi said calmly: "An old man's only wish in his last days is that his children can stay with him and watch him spend his last days."
"sorry Sorry sorry......"
Wang Tongfu cried bitterly, knelt on the ground, knocked his forehead on the ground, and kept mumbling, saying sorry.
Seeing him like this, Zeng Yi couldn't help but sigh.
Maybe he also had something to hide, otherwise, he wouldn't have such emotions.
Zeng Yi could tell that Wang Tongfu was not pretending, but was really showing his true feelings.
However, it is wrong to ignore your parents who abandoned you for whatever reason.
Light flashed in Zeng Yi's hand, and a black earthen jar appeared in his hand.
The old man gave Zeng Yi two jars of pickles, one jar for his son and one jar for Zeng Yi. However, one jar had been smashed, so Zeng Yi had to contribute his own.
"If you really regret it, go get your father and take care of him. He doesn't have much time left."
Zeng Yi put the jar on the table and walked towards the door of the private room.
"Do you know how much I envy people like you?"
When Zeng Yi's figure passed Wang Tongfu, Wang Tongfu vaguely heard these words ringing in his ears.
...
After a long time, Wang Tongfu stood up, looked at the jar on the table, walked over with trembling steps, picked up the jar, and began to lose control of his emotions again, bursting into tears.
He was a country boy, but when his martial soul awakened, he had some soul power. Everyone in the village thought that he could become a soul master and bring glory to the village. In this way, he came to Tianshui City to work hard with the hope of the whole audience.
In Tianshui City, he struggled for more than ten years and was lucky enough to find a woman who could stay with him for the rest of his life. His wife is a native of Tianshui City, and her family is quite powerful. Logically speaking, such a best friend should not be interested in a poor boy like him, but that is the fact.
Although he married an excellent woman, he was a bride-in-law and had no status in the family. He once brought his two elders to live in Tianshui City, but because of his marriage, his parents were ridiculed. Even his wife looked down on his parents.
In the end, the two elders chose to return to live in the countryside in order not to drag him down. For this reason, he worked hard not to let himself be looked down upon by others.
Yes, he succeeded in the end. With his own talents and the support of his wife, he opened a restaurant in Tianshui City. The restaurant was relatively famous in Tianshui City. And his daughter was also very ambitious and was admitted to the famous soul master school in the empire, Tianshui College.
All of this went smoothly and beautifully, but gradually, he forgot about the two elders who were still in the country.
Perhaps it is because he feels that he is not strong enough, and now he is relying on the power of his wife's family to do this, and he does not dare to bring the two elders over. Also, when I heard that there were bandits running amok on the road, my thoughts were extinguished by this fear.
But in fact, he is a timid and cowardly person. No matter how glamorous he is on the outside, this is what he is like on the inside.
He was afraid, afraid that the things he had worked hard for all his life would disappear in an instant. So, he chose to forget about it.
However, at this moment, he knew that he was wrong. Some things, once missed, cannot be undone. Just like now, his mother passed away and he didn't even take a look, but his old father was still waiting for him.
He wanted to appear in front of his father right now, kneel down and admit his mistake to him.
Bang~
The door to the private room was opened. Wang Yao looked at her father, her eyes were red, and her tears were rolling. She held a black jar tightly in her arms like a treasure.
"Dad, are you okay?"
Wang Tongfu shook his head and said:
"Ask someone to prepare a car, I want to go home!"
