Ye Xiu's home is very simple, it is a courtyard house, but this courtyard is not an ordinary kind of courtyard, and there is a forest garden in this backyard, which can be said to be a retro building rebuilt one by one.

After Ye Xiu took Xu Cheng out of the car, he entered the Ye family compound, the Ye family is also very simple, Ye Xiu's mother is watching the news while playing a sweater, Ye Xiu's father is still wearing big glasses in the yard at night to raise plants, this plant is not an ordinary flower, it is very precious, and it is also a technical job to be able to feed.

And under a big tree in the corner of the hall, an old man sat in a wheelchair and listened to the opera, while taking a nap, he refused to go into the house at night, and he looked nearly 100 years old.

"Xiao Xiu, call your grandfather into the house, and this old man will listen to you." Ye Xiu's mother in the hall saw Ye Xiu coming in and said to him: "I don't know what happened to the old man recently, I always feel a little emotional." ”

"What do you know, say less." Father Ye said a few words to his wife.

Ye Xiu saw the old man listening to the opera at night under the big tree, shook his head brainlessly, walked over to his ear and said, "Grandpa, go into the house to rest." ”

Xu Cheng also followed to the old man's side, and the old grandfather of the Ye family suddenly opened his eyes and saw that Xu Cheng was a little stunned.

"Xiao Xiu, is this your friend?" The old man asked.

Ye Xiu nodded: "Yes, his name is Xu Cheng." ”

The old man looked at Xu Cheng and nodded: "Not bad." ”

Then he said to Ye Xiu: "You go in first to move your friend's bed, I'll say a few words to your friend, and come over with my treasured wine when you come out." ”

Ye Xiu looked at Xu Cheng and said, "Don't mind, he's like this." ”

Xu Cheng nodded: "It's okay, I'll stay with the old man for a while." ”

Ye Xiu nodded, walked away, and went to prepare a bed for Xu Cheng.

Xu Cheng found that the old man had been staring at him, and asked with some curiosity, "Does the old man know me?" ”

The old man's cloudy eyes looked at Xu Cheng and said indifferently: "I've heard the name, boy, if I were younger, I might kill you." ”

Xu Cheng was surprised, and then said, "Why?" ”

The old man raised his head and looked at Xu Cheng, and said three words: "My surname is Ye, strictly speaking, I still belong to your foreign grandfather, and your mother's Ye family only belongs to the branch clan." ”

Xu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and nodded: "I should have thought of it." But old man, if I had to do it once, I would still do it. ”

The old man nodded, looked at Xu Cheng and asked, "Do you regret it?" ”

Xu Cheng squatted down in frustration, and nodded vigorously.

The old man smiled bitterly: "I also understand your feelings, as a member of the Ye family, if you are young, I will kill you to take revenge, even if I am a great man, but I am also a human being, and I also have seven emotions and six desires." But I probably wouldn't have done that now. It's like being a member of the clan, but for the sake of this country, I still resolutely broke with the clan and separated, even though I am reluctant in my bones, but standing in front of righteousness, I appreciate you, you know? At least at your age, I can't make such a bold decision, so you're good. ”

Xu Cheng squatted beside the old man and shook his head: "It's a pity that if not, my mother won't come back to life, if I don't have my father's blood in my bones, maybe I should be a little selfish in the position of the country and family, I hope I can choose the family." ”

Old Man Ye: "But you can't, just like me, you can't, even if you know Brother Zhang Chenfeng's plan, but from the standpoint of the country, many older generations of military regions can only cooperate with him by killing their relatives in righteousness, because only those of us who are older know how important it is for a country to be stable and stable, and how hard-won it is, so,' The reason why the plan of exterminating the clan did not bring sequelae is that many people actually want to resist, but for the sake of today's situation, everyone has endured it, and it is not only you who endure the suffering, the child. ”

Xu Cheng nodded thoughtfully, a little hindsightly Why Beishan said at the beginning, 'Everyone will protect you', you are not alone.

It's a trust!

To tell the truth, if the four clans are wiped out, won't there really be a rebound in their domestic heritage? It's impossible not to have it, but it can be so calm afterwards without each other's forbearance and giving, it is impossible, how many people need to make sacrifices in terms of interests?

For the first time, Xu Cheng felt that a country could also give him enough trust!

Ye Xiu took his grandfather's treasured old Moutai and handed it to him.

"Dad said you should drink less."

His grandfather glared at him: "Open, don't think I don't know that he is worried about my good wine, he can't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and can only play politics, don't expect me to leave these good things for him, hum!" ”

Ye Xiu was speechless, his father was also a high authority, but in the eyes of his grandfather, a man who couldn't go to the battlefield was not a master, and his grandfather was the commander of the older generation who survived the battlefield killing, so he was very unkind to his father who could not inherit his mantle at home, but fortunately, Ye Xiu was more in line with his appetite, so usually grandpa especially spoiled this precious grandson.

After Ye Xiu opened Moutai, his grandfather said to him, "Give it to me." ”

Ye Xiu: "Grandpa, you lie down, I'll pour it for you." ”

After the old man Ye snatched it over, he made a move, he personally poured wine for Xu Cheng, and Xu Cheng picked up the cup with some trepidation: "Grandpa Ye, I'll just come by myself." ”

His hand was held down by Ye Lao Yezi, and after pouring the wine, he poured himself another glass of wine, and then raised the wine glass to Xu Cheng: "This cup, I salute you." ”

"What are you going to do?" Xu Cheng was anxious, he respected the veterans very much in his heart, without them, there would be no today's Huaxia.

"Drink!" Old Man Ye glared at Xu Cheng.

Xu Cheng smiled bitterly and took a sip of dry liquor.

It's spicy, but it's refreshing, and it's warm in the heart on such a cold day.

Old Man Ye poured him again, then poured a cup himself, and then said: "This cup, we can't help ourselves!" ”

Xu Cheng smiled bitterly: "Okay, I can't help myself!" ”

Ye Xiu watched the two of them drink cup after cup from the side, and finally Xu Cheng was helped back to the room by Ye Xiu. When he came to the hall, Old Man Ye was not completely drunk, and he said to Ye Xiu: "You are younger than Xiaocheng, call him brother in the future." ”

Ye Xiu was surprised: "We're not relatives, are we?" ”

"His mother's surname is Ye." The old man looked at Ye Xiu with great meaning: "The biggest Ye family!" In terms of status in the family, I am afraid that your father is not as good as his mother. ”

Ye Xiu was taken aback.

"Let you respect him, not because of his mother, but because of what Xu Cheng has done, which is worthy of your respect." After Old Man Ye finished speaking, he pushed the wheelchair back to his room. '
