The broken bridge crosses the West Lake, the willow branches on both sides of the bank have not yet budded, bare, there are few pedestrians, and it is very bleak.

A white-haired old man, standing on a broken bridge, like a sculpture. His eyes were cloudy, looking at the smoky West Lake, with anticipation and despair. Beside him was his grandson, holding an umbrella to shelter the old man from the rain, and persuaded him to go back.

"Grandfather, it's already raining, go back!"

"It's okay, you go back first, I'll stand for a while. The old man smiled kindly at his grandson, who looked helpless and could only stand with the old man.

A small boat quietly appeared in the mist and rain. On the small boat, the three of them grilled fish and chatted.

The little young girl suddenly changed the topic: "Unexpectedly, this boat drifted here." ”

Cai Wei had a question mark on her face: "Sister, what's wrong?"

Ghost Cry's heart jumped, and he said tentatively: "It should be the broken bridge!"

"Hmm. The little young girl simply admitted it.

"Is there anything special about the broken bridge?"

The little green girl said: "It is said that there is a unique scenery of the West Lake here, and now is not a good time to visit the broken bridge, but to wait until the summer flowers are full of flowers, the banks are verdant, or wait until the winter snows, it is a good time to visit." ”

"Where's the broken bridge?"

"There. After extinguishing the fire and feeding the rest of the fish to the big black horse, the three of them walked out of the cabin, and when they reached the deck, the little young girl pointed out the broken bridge for Cai Wei.

"Hey, this bridge is not broken!" Cai Wei felt that this one was not worthy of the name.

The little young girl explained with a smile: "It's too close to here, and if it's too far, the bridge deck and the water surface will merge into one, which will give people the illusion that the bridge is disconnected." ”

"Oh!" Cai Wei felt a little disappointed that she hadn't seen that kind of scene. Ghost Cry patted her emaciated shoulder: "Anyway, it's not far, in the summer, we'll come back." ”

When Cai Wei heard this, she nodded happily: "Hmm." ”

The little green girl looked at Ghost Cry and Cai Wei with great interest, and only thought that the relationship between the two was very interesting.

"Hey, there's someone on the bridge. Cai Wei exclaimed.

"It's an acquaintance, let's lean over!" the little young girl looked complicated.

Ghost Cry already had a guess in his heart, and he was also curious about what this person looked like, so that Xiaoqing's sister could make a personal promise.

"No!" the old man said to his grandson with a complicated expression, happy and disappointed, "Let's go." ”

As he spoke, he walked towards the shore, and Sun Er breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.

They reached the shore, and the boat had just landed.

The grandson thought that his grandfather was going home, but he didn't expect to stop on the shore and seemed to greet someone.

Then, he saw a man and two women coming down from the boat, and a big black horse, it seemed that it was impossible to have an intersection with his grandfather, but the next moment, he was stunned.

"Xiaoqing. The old man had a complicated expression.

Xiaoqing sighed: "Brother-in-law." ”

"Poof!" The old man's grandson and Cai Wei broke their work at the same time, and they didn't drink water, but even so, they were choked by their own saliva and coughed again and again.

The old man spoke slowly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, you are still so young." ”

"But you're old. Xiaoqing shook her head.

Although they are all wandering around the West Lake, after so many years, they can count them on one finger when they meet.

Xiaoqing looked at the grandson beside the old man, and a smile appeared on his face: "The little dog has grown so big." ”

The old man's grandson's face suddenly turned red, this is his milk name, he didn't feel anything when he was called down when he was a child, but now that he is an adult, and even has a family, he was called so by a young girl, and he was immediately extremely ashamed.

"Ha, I'm still shy, I hugged you when you were young. The old man's grandson suddenly recalled that it seemed that sometimes he had indeed been hugged by a young woman, but his memory had been blurred, but now he coincided with the woman in front of him.

"You ......"

"She's your aunt and grandmother. ”

"Auntie, grandmother?" the old man's grandchildren's voices changed.

"They're ......," the old man looked at Devil Cry and Cai Wei.

"Just made a friend. Xiaoqing said: "This is a ghost crying, this is Lin Caiwei." ”

Ghost Cry arched his hand, his age was much older than the old man in front of him, it really made him salute the old man in front of him, and he always felt awkward.

Cai Wei made a very polite salute: "The old man is good." ”

The old man responded with a smile, and Xiaoqing introduced to Ghost Cry and Cai Wei: "That's my brother-in-law, Xu Hanwen, and this is my grandson Xu Bowen." ”

Sure enough, this old man was Xu Xian.

The two sides were polite for a while, and Xu Xian greeted warmly: "It's better to go to the old house and sit down." ”

Xiaoqing was a little hesitant, and Xu Xian said again: "I haven't seen you for many years, and Shi Lin misses you a lot." ”

Shilin is naturally Xu Shilin, the child of Bai Niangniang and Xu Xian.

In fact, the ghost cry also had an intersection with the White Lady, and that time the Heavenly Master's Mansion made a big move, just to catch the fox demon and the child in her womb. But later, the fox demon died, and the daughter in her womb was taken by the crow boy fox Xiaobai husband and wife, who were chased by Anyang Dao people all the way to the West Lake, and later in the West Lake, Anyang Dao people were forced to retreat by Bai Niangniang, this husband and wife are Bai Niangniang's subordinates.

Xiaoqing finally agreed, and she also wanted to see her sister's bloodline. Ghost Cry was very curious about Xu Xian, so he also followed.

To be honest, when he first saw Xu Xian, he was a little disappointed, because what he saw was not a young Xu Xian, but a dying old man, completely devoid of the demeanor of his youth, and he looked like an ordinary old man who couldn't be more ordinary.

On the way, Xiaoqing asked, "Shilin is also old, right?"

Xu Xian sighed: "Yes, we are all old. ”

In the back, Cai Wei watched this scene and said nothing.

A few people walked all the way through the streets and alleys to the Bohol Hall. Today's Boholdo is no longer as shabby as before, and its scale has expanded several times, and the number of doctors in the town has reached five, and the number of apprentices and miscellaneous workers has reached twenty or thirty.

As soon as Xu Xian entered, there were people who kept greeting him, and the old lady was endless. The reason why it can be expanded to this scale is not unrelated to Xu Shilin, after all, he is a champion and has been a Hanlin.

As for the demons and monsters, they don't dare to provoke Baohetang, although Bai Niangniang breaks off her love and wants to become an immortal, but after all, she is connected with the Xu family's bloodline, and she is really moved, maybe she will be slapped to death by Bai Niangniang one day. The white lady is a thousand-year-old demon, and she has successfully crossed the catastrophe, and she can escape reincarnation when the time comes. Ordinary monsters, pressed to death with one finger, the domineering Heavenly Master's Mansion, you have to be respectful when you see her.

"Where's Shilin?"

"Go back to the old lady, the old man is in the study. ”

"Let's go to the back hall first. Xu Xian said: "Bowen, call your father." ”

Xu Bowen arrived at the door of the study, knocked on the door of the study, and shouted while knocking: "Dad, Dad, grandfather is here with guests." ”

The door opened, and Xu Shilin walked out. He is already middle-aged, he has a few more strands of gray hair on his sideburns, and a beard on his face, he looks mature and steady, but like his father, he is always gentle.

"Who is it?"

"A man and two women, one of whom seems to be an aunt and grandmother, but she is too young to look like it. ”

"Bastard!" Xu Shilin knocked Xu Bowen.

Xu Bowen touched his head with a sigh of grievance: "Dad, why did you beat me?"

"I ask you if she's wearing a long teal dress. ”

Xu Bowen nodded, and Xu Shilin said: "That's your aunt, you hugged it when you were a child, and her name was taken by her." ”

At this moment, Xu Bowen finally found the culprit, the puppy he had been called for more than ten years, which turned out to be caused by her.

"Where are they?"

"In the back hall. ”

"Let's go. ”

While walking, Xu Bowen asked curiously: "Dad, how old did you say your aunt and grandmother are, will she not be as old as you?"

"Shut up, can you ask the age of the elders?" Xu Shilin scolded, but looking at his son's curious eyes, he couldn't help but say again: "I don't know about being a father, but I just know that I am much older than my father." ”

Xu Bowen looked horrified: "How is it possible?"

"Alas!" Xu Shilin sighed: "Come to my study tonight, there are some things that I should let you know." ”
