C519 Status Quo of the Chu Clan
Because Chu Yingloong's gaze was too hot, Chu Yun lowered his head in embarrassment, "Because my mom likes to drink."
These words caused Chu Yingloong's heart to ache, and he couldn't stop his tears from flowing out. "When I was young, no matter how I taught her, I was never able to remember the origin of the Taiping Monkey Kui."
"My mom said it's not that she can't remember. She likes to see how you talk to him about tea culture." This sentence was something Chu Yun had unintentionally seen in a diary when he was cleaning up his mother's belongings.
It was also because of the letter that Morin brought back that Chu Yun once again read his mother's diary. It was because of this that he realized that his mother had always been thinking about this family and her father in her heart.
"Child, all these years, you've worked hard." Chu Yingloong wiped away his tears. With blurry eyes, he looked at Chu Yun and said, "This will be your home from now on, your support."
Actually, Chu Yun wasn't lacking in these things, it was just that he couldn't refuse the gaze of this old man in front of him. He nodded.
Chu Yingloong was even more happy when he saw this, "I've already ordered people to prepare food, how about you accompany me to drink a few cups later?"
"Drinking is not a problem, I'm just afraid that you can't drink." Chu Yun's alcohol tolerance was not just for show.
"Then I want some too." Qin Ruoxi couldn't help but want to participate in such a harmonious atmosphere.
"You can't."
"No."
Chu Yun and Chu Yingloong said at the same time. The two of them were also stunned for a moment. They looked at each other, then burst out laughing again.
"You're just a little girl. Just drink some juice, and you shouldn't drink any more." It had been a long time since Chu Yingloong had laughed so happily. Perhaps it really was a matter of blood relations. Seeing them, his mood naturally became a lot more cheerful.
Chu Yingloong told Chu Yun that not everyone from the Chu Family came from their hometown, and there were a few people that were continuously recruited from the outside after their Chu Family had grown.
Chu Yingloong didn't say it directly, but Chu Yun understood that Chu Yingloong was reminding him to be careful when talking to someone else.
So when they talk at the table, they pay special attention. Avoid saying sensitive words, only talking about past events, or asking Chu Yun about the current situation.
The meal was rather harmonious and the dishes were also very rich. It had the flavor of a mother that he hadn't tasted for a long time. These dishes were all the favorite dishes of Chu Yun's mother.
Although he was his grandfather, to Chu Yingloong, who had been missing for so many years, he didn't know what Chu Yun liked to eat, so he could only make them according to the dishes that Chu Yun's mother liked.
The happiest person in this meal was Qin Ruoxi. He remembered that when Chu Yun's mother was still alive, he cooked a meal for them. The taste at that time was almost exactly the same as the one now. It was the kind of warm feeling one would feel when eating, like their mother's love was tightly surrounding her.
Especially when Qin Ruoxi thought of the actions of her own mother, Xie Huiqin, and also looked at Lord Chu's love and care for Chu Yun, she felt a sense of loss.
"Ruoxi, if you like it then eat more. It wasn't easy for you to come to Yanbei, so stay for a few more days." It was impossible for Chu Yingloong to say that to Chu Yun, and it wasn't good for him to let Chu Yun stay.
Perhaps, as both of them were men, they didn't treat some matters as cutely or emotionally as women. Therefore, Chu Yingloong could only make his move from Qin Ruoxi's side.
Originally, when he returned to Yanbei, it was Chu Yun who came to visit his grandfather.
Qin Ruoxi tilted her head and looked at Chu Yun with her big eyes. There were a lot of things Chu Yun wanted to understand, so he naturally chose to stay.
Chu Yingloong was extremely happy when he heard that Chu Yun was willing to stay for a few days. He quickly instructed the servants to arrange the rooms for Chu Yun and Wu Tie to rest in.
It was late in the night and the Chu Family had fallen into a deep sleep. Chu Yun got up from the bed quietly, and under the cover of the night, Chu Yun tiptoed to the study room.
"Not bad, you're pretty fast." Chu Yinglong smiled and said as he caught sight of the figure in the room.
"What is there to say that you can't say tomorrow? You have to say it at this time." Chu Yun's face was filled with displeasure. He could have clearly hugged his wife and slept well, but he was called out by someone instead.
"Brat, what's wrong? Can't Grandpa call you out to reminisce about old times?" Chu Yingloong pretended to be angry as he said.
"That's not what I meant, but can't you say so during the day?"
"Only at night will Chu Family be the safest." Chu Yingloong patted Chu Yun's shoulder with his flashlight with a smile. Under the moonlight, he looked at the child who looked just like his daughter.1
"Uh, Grandpa, what do you mean by that?" Chu Yun followed behind Chu Yingloong. He didn't quite understand what Chu Yingloong meant.
"Come in. "Follow me."
Chu Yingloong led Chu Yun into a secret passage behind the bookcase.
"Come, sit down, child. I'll tell you. " Chu Yingloong was the first to sit down, pouring two cups of tea from the kettle on the table, "Come and have a taste, your mother's favorite."
Ever since Chu Yun's mother left, Chu Yingloong had put away Chu Yun's mother's favorite pet, the Taiping Monkey Kui. This time, when Chu Yun came, Chu Yingloong took it out again.
"With our current Chu Family, we don't have many people of our own, many of them were either bought by us or sent here by the big families secretly, but every night, I put out incense in every room, so when night came, the entire Chu Family entered a deep sleep."
Chu Yun looked around. Other than the four walls, there was nothing else here. Of course, there was also a table and four stools in front of him.
"Are you very curious about this place?" Chu Yingloong sipped his tea and looked at Chu Yun with a smile.
"At that time, I brought quite a few people from my family and left the Longying Valley, coming to this place called Yanbei. From the very earliest little courtyard, I never thought about increasing my Chu Family. "
Chu Yingloong took a sip of tea, "I just want to bring along the people of Longying Valley to live an ordinary, ordinary, ordinary life. Never thought of getting involved in worldly disputes. "
"But there are often many things that are impersonal. In the mortal world, there would inevitably be wars going on. Of course, it would be business battles, so for the sake of discussing important matters at times, I had prepared this secret room long ago.
Chu Yingloong lightly pressed on the wall beside him and the door opened. Chu Yingloong took out a small box, "You should have seen this before, right?"
What Chu Yingloong was holding was none other than the token that Chu Yun saw in Lu Yuanxiang's hands.
