Near noon.
In the Huo family yard.
Bai Yu moved a basket of books and several cans of top-quality tea into the Huo family hall.
Finally, he took out a small bag of melon seeds from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Mrs. Huo respectfully.
"Master, Master, I'm here to apologize to you."
The Huo family did not farm.
While the villagers are busy in the fields, Mr. Huo makes a pot of tea in the house, drinking tea and listening to laughter, which is his daily pleasure.
At this time, the charcoal fire on the red clay stove was burning on the tea table, and both Mr. Huo and Madam Huo were sitting nearby.
Madam Huo didn't take what Bai Yu bent over and handed over, "I don't dare to accept your things, and we don't know each other very well. Move all those books and tea leaves. Sui'er and I are both old. I don’t want to be angry anymore.”
Bai Yu pursed his lips, put the melon seeds on the tea table, lifted up his clothes, knelt down, and said softly, "When I became a disciple, I knelt outside the door for three days. It was the master's wife who was soft-hearted and carried me in, and I became the last disciple of Mr. . In Bai Yu’s heart, Master’s Wife will always be Master’s Wife, and my respect for you is no less than that of Master.”
Listening to him mentioning those years, Madam Huo's eyes were dizzy and she lowered her eyes and snorted coldly, "You have always been a good talker and eloquent. If you remember my love back then, don't come to my yard or other places in the future." I can't control it. I can still make the decision in my family. Now that you have come to apologize and make amends, why were you angry with your master in the first place and ignored his advice and went your own way? Bai Yu, you are actually very arrogant and have never put others before you. In the eyes. If Tianbao hadn't come back, your master and I might not be able to wait for you to kneel down for the rest of our lives!"
"No." Bai Yu raised his head, his face was calm, and his eyes were deep and heavy, without any of the casualness he usually showed. "No matter who happened that day, I will take revenge. But Tianbao is the most important to me." It’s important. Master, it’s not that I refused to listen to Master, it’s just that at that time, I was going crazy.”
There is no sense left.
Madam Huo's eyes trembled, her eye circles became redder, and she turned her face away.
Huo Ziheng was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "A-Xian, it's almost noon. You go and light the fire first, and I'll cook later."
Knowing that the man wanted to talk to the unfilial disciple alone, Madam Huo stood up and left the main room with a groan.
After the woman left, Huo Ziheng turned to look at the young man kneeling in front of the tea table.
Handsome as jade, with a figure like bamboo, dressed in white clothes, clean and crisp, as harmless as humans and animals.
But those eyes were pitch black, and now even he, the master, couldn't see through what he was thinking.
I have grown up after all.
Huo Ziheng smiled silently and bitterly.
Since ancient times, adversity and pain are the easiest things to encourage people to grow.
He had hoped that his children would grow into eagles, and they did.
In two years, each of them has become his own person.
But Bai Yu is different from other children.
He is no ordinary eagle, he has become the most ferocious golden eagle in the Gobi and can eat wolves.
There was a bubbling sound from the teapot on the red clay stove, and the tea was boiling.
Huo Ziheng looked away, wrapped the handle of the hot teapot with a cloth, lifted the teapot, opened the lid, and the aroma of tea overflowed.
"Now that Tianbao is back, your sanity should also come back." He opened his lips warmly, "Tianbao has been a very worried child since he was a child. He talks less and does more. He seems indifferent and cold-hearted, but in fact he has a temper. Be pure, act with principles and bottom lines, and above all love. Yu'er, since you have no ambitions in the world, don't try to bring trouble to the world. If Tianbao knew the methods you used for her, she would never be happy."
Bai Yu's eyelashes trembled, and he pursed his lips without saying a word. He took over the master's hand, rinsed the teacup, and made tea.
Huo Ziheng let him go and continued, "Look for an opportunity to coax your godfather. Do you think why he always happens to be there every time you go to sea in the past two years? He is worried that you will behave like Tianbao when he disappeared. Go jump into the sea. Regarding Tianbao, our pain will not be less than yours, but you have indeed broken many people's hearts in the past two years."
"Master——"
"Okay, stop kneeling and get up. Neither I nor your godfather has ever really annoyed you. It's just a matter of deep love and deep responsibility."
The man stretched out his hand, crossed the tea table, landed on the young man's head, and patted it lightly.
Just like when the disciples were too naughty and noisy when they were young, the teacher was helpless after being tormented and couldn't bear the punishment, so he always rubbed the disciples' heads like this, or slapped them as if they were punished.
The gentleman has a weak temperament and reserved emotions, but this simple gesture always makes the children feel the tolerance and generosity behind his back.
Madam Huo specially watched the unfilial disciple leave before returning to the main room. After sitting down, she took the small bag on the tea table, opened it, and ate melon seeds, "He's leaving now? He just said a few words? He was beaten by him again." Are you angry? I used to think that Tianbao has a strong temper and is the most difficult to teach. Oh, I made a mistake. This is the most difficult to teach. If you put it in my former bandit village, this is also a top thorn!"
Huo Ziheng, "..."
There was a constant clicking sound in my ears.
He looked at the melon seed shells that were spread out on the ground in a blink of an eye, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile in his eyes, "Didn't you say you didn't dare to pick it up? Did you eat it?"
"Ahem, it's all for nothing! How much did such a small bag cost? I'm not that easy to bribe. I just happened to have finished eating the melon seeds at home, and I'm greedy!"
Huo Ziheng chuckled lightly and poured her a cup of tea, "After eating, have a cup of tea and calm down the heat. I'll ask Xiaofeng to bring you some more later. But, madam..."
"What are you doing?"
"You've lost your teeth."
"..."
A moment later, Mrs. Huo's roar could be heard from afar in the Huo family's courtyard, "Huo! Zi! Heng!"
Under the roar, the man was still suppressing his voice and smiled softly, begging for peace.
Tianbao and Old Man Du flew up to the roof almost immediately, squatting down and gnawing pears to watch the fun.
The rice harvest in the village has been finished, and now every household is drying and threshing the rice, and dust is flying everywhere.
The two men had nothing to do and were very interested in watching the excitement.
"Bao, your master turned out to be married to a Hedong lion! Think about it carefully. Do you have any memory of this loud voice? Roaring sound?"
"No." Tian Baobao chirped and praised the pear in his hand again, "It's delicious."
"Sweet potato flavor is also delicious? Grandpa will get you a chili flavor tomorrow! Jie Jie Jie!"
The old man shook his shoulders and smiled strangely. The pears he took out had detoxifying cream on the skin. He could make any kind of detoxifying cream, and the taste would not be the same every day when he kept it.
Another figure flew up from under the eaves, and instead of going anywhere else, he squeezed towards the two of them, "Grandpa Du, sweet baby can't eat spicy food."
Tianbao frowned, "Grandpa Po, we are going to eat spicy food tomorrow!"
There is nothing that Su Tianbao cannot do or eat.
Bai Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and held his forehead, forgetting for a moment that Tianbao didn't like people saying something bad about her.
"Eh? Did you hear the noise? Do you feel something weird under your feet?" The old man suddenly said, looking down at his feet, "Hey, hey, is this roof going to collapse? What's going on? What's going on? Bai You little bastard, get down quickly! You don’t look fat, you have all the fat in your belly, right?”
The roof beams underfoot made a very subtle rattling sound, as if they were overwhelmed and could collapse at any time.
Tianbao immediately took the pear to his mouth, turned around and looked around to find the culprit. In an instant, he kicked Bai Yu and Wangbai Shiying, who was squatting behind them, off the roof with three feet.
The clicking sound disappears.
Tianbao wiped his face and exhaled a breath of turbid air, so dangerous!
The roof was really going to collapse. Grandpa and grandma would definitely not let her and Grandpa Du squat up in the future.
The elders of the Su family who ran out after hearing the sound looked at the three people lying in the yard, and then at the happy-looking old man and Tianbao on the eaves.
"..."
coming.
The days of turmoil are back.
