Destiny-changing Rain - C60
When the green lotus said these two words, the three people standing behind her were suddenly stupefied. They looked at each other to confirm that they did not hear wrongly. This time, Ni Fei finally understood everything. The old naughty kid would be nervous when he heard that he had picked up his aunt, but his nervous and panicked eyes just now did not expect that the old naughty kid who secretly taught him martial arts all day was his aunt’s senior brother. Thinking about this, he was even more confused. Since they were senior and junior siblings, why was the old child so nervous when he saw his aunt? Why were they so nervous when his aunt found out that the old child was his senior? The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
The old urchin and the green lotus looked each other in the eye, and in that instant, he immediately turned around, intending to leave.
“Senior apprentice-brother.” Qing Lian immediately called out to the old naughty kid who was preparing to leave, “Since you’re here, why are you hiding?”
The old child was called to stand there. A gust of wind blew through the forest, causing the treetops to rustle. The wine pot on the old child’s waist swayed from side to side in the wind.
A few days ago, I noticed that something was wrong with Fei’er’s martial arts. I had seen every single move she had practiced, but I did not ask her. I was afraid that the answer she told me would make me restless. The wind gently lifted the green lotus’s hair, her eyes were still staring at the old urchin, wet and sparkling. This woman who used to be strong and feared by many martial artists was now weak, “They all say that you have gone to the Western Regions, and I never thought that you would step foot into the Central Plains again in your entire life. I never thought that I would see you here today.”
“So what if we saw it? After so many years, everything is no longer the same. We are all old now.” The usually jovial old urchin spoke in a very quiet manner. He looked at the birds jumping up and down on the treetops.
“Did you not go to the Western Regions that time?” Qing Lian asked puzzledly.
“Yes. I don’t know why I’m here either. Maybe it’s due to fate between me and Fei’er. ” The old urchin sighed.
“Have you been wandering around outside?” Qing Lian asked worriedly. It was obvious from the expression on her face that she was very concerned about this dirty old rascal in front of her.
“Accompanied by the clear wind and the bright moon, and the birds and beasts, the clear sky is carefree as she looks up at the white clouds floating above her head. She sits under the big tree in the cave and watches the long, thin stream of water. No one talks, drinks, sleeps on the rocks at night. Such a life is so carefree. ” The old urchin appeared abnormally calm. He raised his head and looked at the white clouds floating in the sky.
After saying that, he prepared to leave …. Qinglian called out to him in a panic, “Senior, perhaps I’m not worthy to call you senior, but …”
“Fei’Er is a material for martial arts practice. If he doesn’t like the Jade Maiden Sword, don’t let him learn it.” The old urchin did not let Qing Lian finish her sentence. With that, he left with quick steps.
The green lotus wanted to scream, but it didn’t let out a sound.
Ni Fei, who was standing there motionlessly while waiting for his training, immediately flushed red in anger. It was not because the old naughty kid had said that he was a martial arts practitioner, but that he had told his aunt in front of him that he did not want to learn the Jade Maiden Sword Technique.
At this moment, the tears in her eyes had completely melted away. She turned around to look at Ni Fei, who was standing there, then turned to look at the timid Zheng Min. Without another word, they brushed past the three of them. The three of them looked at each other, then looked at the bitter face of the Blue Lotus as it walked over. Initially, Ni Fei, who was waiting for his aunt’s scolding, found it even more strange. He had secretly come to the back of the mountain to learn martial arts, and had even unrestrainedly said that he didn’t like the Jade Maiden Sword that his aunt was proud of, but she knew that he was neither angry nor angry. Thinking of this, Ni Fei became even more afraid.
Zheng Min glanced at the dazed Ni Fei and hurriedly followed behind Qing Lian. Su Guangren walked to Ni Fei’s side and patted his shoulder before following closely behind. Ni Fei stood in a daze.
Because of what happened during the day, the entire mansion was extremely quiet. The faint moonlight lazily sprinkled over the entire courtyard and glazed roof tiles.
Ni Fei stealthily walked toward the back of the house. When he passed through a corridor, he saw his mother-in-law standing there and looking at the bright moonlight. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the old granny turned around and looked at Ni Fei, who was tiptoeing over, “I’ve angered your aunt today.”
“How do you know?” Ni Fei softly asked.
“Your aunt went to her room after dinner. If it wasn’t you and Min’er who made her angry, then what was it?” Grandma sat down on a stone bench by the porch.
When he heard that his aunt had entered the room and the taut nerves on Ni Fei Ma had relaxed, he swaggered over to his mother-in-law’s side and sat down. “Granny, you’ve lived with your aunt for so long, you must know some stories about her when she was young. Tell them to me.”
“What kind of story would a woman have? You troublemaker, what do you want to know?”
“Granny, mother-in-law, my good mother-in-law.” Ni Fei mischievously shook his mother-in-law’s arm.
“You’re so grown-up, yet you act like a little kid.” The mother-in-law said impatiently.
“Just tell me, if you don’t tell me, I’ll keep bothering you like this tonight.” Ni Fei said as if he was acting coquettishly.
“Alright, alright, alright. I’m scared of a troublemaker like you.” The old granny finally gave in. “But I have indeed been in this house for dozens of years without leaving the house. I don’t know what kind of story your aunt has.”
“Fifteen years ago, I was just an old woman selling vegetables in a basket at a market down the hill. At that time, the army was in a state of chaos and the government was in a state of chaos. We can grow some vegetables on the coast, but the harvest is bad. “I was on my own, hawking vegetables on the street, and I saw your aunt …” At this time, the mother-in-law paused, “Your aunt was leading a little girl, and that’s Min’er. She bought all the dishes in my basket. After a few days, your aunt brought Min-er to buy my food. Your aunt is a pitiful person. I was also lonely, so I followed her into the house to take care of the two of them. ” As she spoke, her mother-in-law’s tears flowed as she rolled up her sleeves and wiped them clean.
“So that’s how it is. Was Auntie not married or in love? ” Ni Fei asked without concealing anything.
“At that time, even if she was with Min Er, I don’t know and wouldn’t ask. Why did you ask?” The mother-in-law asked in puzzlement.
“Oh, I’m just asking.” Ni Fei did not continue pursuing the matter and immediately said, “Grandma, why are you alone? Where are your family members?”
The old granny who had asked the question remained silent. Immediately, she used her sleeve to wipe the tears from her eyes.
“Could it be that Grandma has something that is hard to explain?” At this moment, Su Guangren walked over from the end of the corridor.
“Grandma?” Ni Fei tried to call out to his mother-in-law who was sad because of his abrupt question.
