Chapter 435: The Checkmate of Man
In the main courtyard of the Xia family.
Xia Mo took the two of them happily to follow He Pei'er to the main house in the middle, looking at the house in front of him that was almost the same as in his memory, he sighed again in his heart.
I think he often came here back then, and the brothers drank tea and talked about things in it, and at that time, everyone was only dedicated to this family business, but I don't know when everything and people have changed.
In front of the stone steps at the door, He Peier asked the servant to bring the two people who gave gifts down to receive them, and there was no Xia Mo behind her, so she took Xia Lin's hand and went to the hall together.
Xia Mo was sad in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to these details, seeing that the family of three in front of him had entered, he also followed behind, but when he went inside, not only no one greeted him, but no one poured tea, He Pei'er still sat on the sofa with a cold face, and looked at him angrily.
"Fourth Master Zu, we have an agreement, and I thank you for your help last time, but you yourself know very well what your identity is, didn't you deliberately embarrass us by running over like this without scruples."
He Pei'er didn't want him to drink any tea, and today this person came up to show that he was clearly giving Xia Lin a problem.
He entered this door and was proud, but if this matter is not handled well, the impact on Xia Lin will not be good, his own man has not yet taken over as the sect master, even if he does, to be convincing, the desire of the people is also very important.
Even He Pei'er understands the truth, how could Xia Mo not understand, he laughed, took the teapot on the table and poured himself a drink, and poured a cup with He Pei'er, who was sitting opposite.
"Don't be angry about this, it's that I didn't think it through, but in the end, I wanted to see the baby too much, so I couldn't help but run up the mountain."
Want to see your baby too much?
He Pei'er couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, "Fourth Master Zu, everyone is not stupid, although I don't know what your ultimate purpose of going up the mountain is, don't say those Tang Sai words." He didn't look at the child a few times during the whole process, and said that he wanted to see the baby too much, and now his son was lying in the stroller next to him, if he wanted to see it, why didn't he look at it.
Accused of lying, Xia Mo couldn't refute it, put down the teacup in his hand and sighed, "You also know that I don't have many years to live, in addition to purifying my children with the blood of the Lord, I also have a wish that I can return to my roots." ”
People are dying, the more they go to the back, the more homesick they become, and no matter how good the scenery outside, they can't match this place where he was born and raised.
"Do you want to return to the Xia family? Fourth Ancestor, this is not what we agreed on! "Don't say that He Pei'er doesn't want to help him, it's that this thing can't be achieved at all, he is a rebel, usually the Xia family sees them all shouting and killing existence, he still wants to live here, die here, bury here, this thing doesn't have to think about it to know that it won't work.
"I didn't think that I would be able to come back immediately, in my lifetime, I hope to be able to contribute more to the Xia family to make up for the sins committed back then, and after death, I don't ask for a tablet to enter the holy land, and my soul and blood can be satisfied.
When he left, he snatched the soul blood, and now he wants to put it back again, this person is really contradictory.
Xia Lin left the stroller and sat next to He Pei'er, looked at the slightly sad man opposite and said, "Some things can't be made up for and passed, it was my grandfather who listed you as a rebel at the beginning, if he is still alive and willing to forgive you, you can still return." Now that he's dead, no one has the authority to help you take off the rebel hat, and it's not as simple as you think. ”
"I understand this truth, but people are dying, even if there is no hope, I want to try." He Xia Mo is not the kind of person who gives up easily, there are difficulties to be challenges.
Okay, everyone's stubbornness is not so embarrassing, He Pei'er also sighed, "These are your things, how to do it I believe you have your own ideas, what the result is, we won't talk about it for the time being, but can you stop using my and the child's name as an excuse to go up the mountain in the future, how can you let me and Xia Lin face such a large group of people as the Xia family, those people don't say that we rely on the relationship and strength of the Holy Spirit Body to do whatever we want, and don't take the clan rules and ancestral teachings in our eyes." ”
He Peier invited him in today, selling favors and face, but just like she said at the door before, this time it is a favor, and the next time she encounters this kind of thing, if she has any grievances against the Xia family, she will not care, they can't manage the affairs of the older generation, and they will not be stupid enough to be a gunman.
I was still thinking that she was affectionate and righteous, but I didn't think that she would say it too early, and this girl was also realistic.
Xia Mo pursed his mouth a little aggrievedly, "I know." "Originally, I thought that he would come back when Xia Lin took over the sect, but now it seems that this road will not work.
It's good that he really listened, He Pei'er nodded, "I'll accept today's gift, thank you for coming to see me and the child." If Xia Lin and I are fortunate enough to give birth to a returnee in the future, I will abide by the original agreement, and it is not too early today, so you can go back first if there is nothing to do. ”
He Peier was a little tired and was ready to take the child upstairs to rest.
It seems that he has just sat down for a long time, and after saying a few words, he won't sit down, Xia Mo doesn't do it, coughs lightly and pours himself a cup of tea, "Don't you want to invite me to tea, this tea is too good, I haven't drunk enough." ”
“……”
Xia Mo's old stubbornness grinded in the hall for almost an hour before leaving, and then He Peier took the child upstairs, leaving Xia Lin to accompany him below.
However, Xia Lin didn't like to talk, and Xia Mo was also a little bored, so he got up and left after drinking a pot of tea.
Finally sent the old guy away, Xia Lin took the wooden box from before and went to the second floor to see his wife and children.
originally thought that the woman might fall asleep, but when she pushed the door, she found that only her son was asleep, and the woman sat on the balcony to listen to the gossip.
"Didn't you say you're tired? Why did you start gossiping again. Xia Lin kissed her on the cheek and placed the box in his hand on the table in front of her.
"When I say tired, I mean quiet rest, not sleep." She runs on the balcony every day to listen to the sounds at the door is not boring and panicked, in fact, there is nothing to hear, there should be something similar to an enchantment on this mountain, she can only hear the conversation at the gate of the yard, those people enter the house The sound is broken, and something directly blocks the hearing of the ability.
It's normal to think about this, all the people who live on the mountain are capable people, if there is no sound blocking thing, everything is heard, what secrets do the people on this mountain have?
"Xia Lin, what's in this box?"
Seeing the man sitting down next to her, He Peier picked up the small box in front of her and opened it to see.
When she was on the balcony before, she had heard Xia Mo say that this thing could make her become a holy body as soon as possible.
The Holy Communion is a sign that she is separated from ordinary people, according to Xia Lin, it will take tens or hundreds of years to be fully formed, how much time can this thing save her?
