Chapter 178 Secret Darkness, Recognition
Chapter 178 Secret Darkness, Recognition
The two talked and laughed like this and followed the old village head and his party all the way. In this weird setting sun, the painting style seemed particularly uncoordinated.
And this moment, this group of people attracted the attention of the villagers in the whole village. Many villagers opened the doors from their homes, stood expressionlessly at the door of their own homes, and looked at Luo Chen and the others.
Some people wanted to come, but they were all stopped by the old man walking in the front.
Not long after, a house with three courtyards appeared in front of several people.
This house is quite good in this dilapidated village.
At least better than most houses.
But there is no exception. There is also a pair of white couplets pasted on the door of this house.
But under this white, it can be seen that there is a red mark hidden underneath.
It seems...not long ago, weddings were held here.
Walking in front of the house, the old man stopped and said to the villagers behind him: "Go back first, I will take the bride home.
The other villagers seemed to be convinced by the words of the village chief.
As soon as they heard this, they all dispersed one after another.
Only a young man was left supporting the old man, and the old man patted the door lightly at this moment.
At the same time, he said: "Wu Chen, Wu Chen, open the door quickly, and see who is coming."
Not long after the sound came out, the sound of someone walking inside the house was heard, and the door was slowly opened.
An old man with gray hair about seventy years old came out of it.
Apparently his name was Wu Chen.
Wu Chen looked at the village chief who knocked on the door and immediately had a smile on his face: "Village chief, why are you here, please come in quickly."
But after he finished speaking, he realized that there were several people behind the village head, and looked at Luo Chen and the others with some doubts.
When his eyes fell on Li Yao, he was obviously taken aback for a moment.
But just at this moment, he immediately looked away.
The village head also showed a smile on his wrinkled old face and said to Wu Chen: "I won't go in, look, didn't I bring your granddaughter to look for you?"
"Your granddaughter came back from outside to see you."
The village chief pointed at Li Yao as he spoke, and Li Yao was looking at Wu Chen with some whirling eyes.
From the moment the old man appeared, she knew it was her grandfather!
The feeling that blood is thicker than water cannot be faked!
Li Yao also took a step forward when she heard the village chief's introduction, opened her mouth, and shouted at Wu Chen: "Grandpa...Grandpa~"!"
But what happened immediately was beyond everyone's expectations.
Wu Chen didn't show any look of surprise, but glanced at Li Yao blankly and replied impatiently: "Why do you call people grandpa when you see people? I don't even have a daughter, how could I have one?" Granddaughter, hurry up, hurry up, don't try to grab my relatives."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the village chief again: "Village chief, this girl has identified the wrong person, how could she be my granddaughter, hurry up and drive them away, I think they are probably liars outside
Want to cheat money. "
Such a performance for the elderly.
Li Yao couldn't stop crying immediately, and Tang Cai'er, who was beside her, couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw her best friend's appearance.
He said angrily to Wu Chen: "You old man, Xiaoyao came all the way to find you, even if it's really not your granddaughter, you don't have to say that about us, do you?"
Unexpectedly, the old man didn't pay any attention to it at all, just looked at the village chief: "Village chief, I'm going to rest soon, so I can't entertain them, so you can send these people wherever they go."
As the old man said, he was about to turn around and walk back towards the gate.
Li Yao was a little anxious, and just as she was about to speak again, she heard the village chief's expression turn colder, he looked at Wu Chen and said, "Wu Chen, her mother is Wu Xue.
"Who is she, you know better than us. Since your granddaughter has found the village, this is fate. If you don't want her to go to your house, then I can let them go with me."
When Wu Chen heard this, his body froze when he turned around.
Finally, he looked over slowly again.
A trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and there was some perseverance.
"Since this is the case, I will accept them."
When the old village chief saw Wu Chen talking like this, he didn't blame him at all, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face again: "Okay, then I won't bother you.
After the village chief said this, he left directly.
The entire village was immediately empty, only Luo Chen and his party of four, and Wu Chen were left.
At this moment, Wu Chen sighed a long time and said to several people, "Come in."
Several people followed Wu Chen and walked into the yard.
There is nothing in the yard, just some white letters of happiness pasted on some doors.
An old woman came out of the kitchen with a porcelain bowl in her hand and asked Wu Chen, "Who is the old man who came to our house..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Li Yao.
"Little... Snow!"
Her tone was full of disbelief, surprise and complexity.
Wu Chen suddenly stretched out his hand and made a silent expression.
He quickly walked into the kitchen, and made a gesture for Luo Chen and the others to follow.
After several people entered the kitchen, Wu Chen turned around and closed the wooden door of the kitchen, and immediately the whole room was plunged into darkness.
pat--
The old-fashioned light bulbs were pulled out, and the dim lights lit up the whole house.
And the old man finally looked at Li Yao and said, "You...why are you here!"
His voice was no longer as cold as before, but rather sad.
Li Yao couldn't bear it anymore, and fell to her knees in front of the two elderly people with a thump: "Grandpa, grandma!"
When the old woman heard the sound, her whole body trembled, and the porcelain bowl in her hand fell to the ground.
々Girl, what are you calling me!?"
Li Yao broke down in tears and looked at the old woman: "Grandma, I am Li Yao, my mother, my mother is Wu Xue!"
As soon as this remark came out, the old woman froze in place, her lips trembling.
"Xiao...Xue...you...you are Xiaoxue's child..."
"Yes, grandma, I am your granddaughter."
The old woman just looked at Li Yao blankly, with tears rolling down her old face.
"You are really Xiaoxue's child! You are my granddaughter!"
The two faced each other, one nodded desperately, and the other was trembling all over.
Relatively speechless, it was silent for several minutes.
Wu Chen who was at the side sighed again, and stretched out his hand to pull Li Yao up: "Girl, get up, get up, tell me...you and your mother are living well outside, what are you doing when you come back?"
His expression is very complicated, full of longing and caring, but more of a kind of indifference.
The old woman next to her also reacted and wiped away her tears.
Moved a few benches and placed them next to Luo Chen and the others: "Sit down."
Luo Chen was not polite either, and sat on the bench straight (okay) straight.
It was rare for Ao Xin to do it quietly.
At this time, the old woman seemed to have come to her senses.
Holding Li Yao's hand, the two talked for more than half an hour. It could be seen that the old lady felt very distressed for this granddaughter whom she had never seen before.
Almost repeatedly asked how she and her mother are doing well these years.
When it was completely dark, the old man who had been sitting silently beside him interrupted the conversation between the grandparents and grandchildren.
He looked at Li Yao and asked with some guilt: "Son, what's the matter with you coming here this time?"
Li Yao hesitated for a moment and told the two old people what happened to her.
After Wu Chen heard this, he hammered his thigh heavily: "How could this happen..."
The old woman next to her couldn't help being anxious: "Old man, Xiaoyao... Xiaoyao can't have any accidents!"
"Go, let them go now, Xiaoyao can't stay in this village, even... even if we risk our lives... we must send Xiaoyao away!"
