C714 Donglin guard
Linhai, the person who suddenly came to visit Liu Yan was none other than the second blood brother of Liu Yan, his name was Liu Xin.
Just like Liu Yan, Liu Xin was a member of the capital, but they were not a direct descendant of the Liu Family. Their father and that Patriarch of the Golden Family, were only cousins, and could be considered a branch of the Liu Family.
Suddenly hearing the grievous news of his father's death, Liu Yan seemed to have fallen into a trance. He only stretched out his hand and continuously searched his body. After a long while, Liu Yan finally took out a cigarette from the pocket of his pajamas, and then shakily lit it up for himself.
From Liu Yan's gaze, he could vaguely see the kind gaze of his father. In Liu Yan's memories, the old man was still in his fifties. He looked like he was in his prime, but who would have thought that twenty years had passed in the blink of an eye?
"Father, father …" Liu Yan muttered to himself as he fiercely smoked.
He regretted not being able to stay by his father's side at the very last moment. He regretted not surreptitiously returning to his capital in the past twenty years to visit the old man, but it was already too late for him to say anything now.
This pain was completely written on Liu Yan's face. Even though Liu Yan was now an adult man who was more than ten years old without any doubts, that kind of sadness still made him cry bitterly, absolutely not in sadness.
Gently standing up, Liu Xin walked to Liu Yan's side, patted Liu Yan's shoulders and sighed: "Younger Brother Yan, don't grieve, the deceased has already passed away. If father knew that you had been well at the bottom of the spring, you would probably be gratified."
Liu Yan didn't say a word, he only covered his face, and let out a moaning sound from his throat.
After a long, long time, Liu Yan finally raised his head, looked at Liu Xin, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Second Brother. "If you hadn't come to inform me, I'm afraid I would still be hiding this from you."
Liu Xin laughed bitterly, he once again sat on the sofa, and stared at his own younger brother for a long time.
In the end, Liu Xin gave a bitter laugh and said, "Little Brother Yan, actually, I have not come here to report a funeral. "I have something else, something else to tell you …"
"What is it?" Liu Yan looked at Liu Yan with a puzzled expression.
Liu Xin mulled over it for a long time, but still did not know how to start the conversation. In the end, he could only probe: "Younger Brother Yan, if, I'm saying if, if there's a chance, do you still want to go back to capital?"
Liu Yan was startled. Even though he was still in pain of losing his father, Liu Yan's brain moved faster than anyone else.
"Hmm?" With a snort of doubt, Liu Yan turned and looked at Liu Xin: "Second brother, what do you mean by that?"
Liu Xin could not help but laugh bitterly, and sighed: "Patriarch, Patriarch has ordered me to come to Linhai this time to bring your family back to capital …"
Without waiting for Liu Xin to finish speaking, Liu Yan snorted: "Hehe, capital, a place filled with sorrow, what do you want to go back for? Besides, now that my father is dead, I have no reason to go back. I've stayed in Linhai for twenty years, and I feel pretty good, so I don't want to move anymore! "
After laughing coldly, Liu Yan continued: "Second brother, go back and inform our Clan Master that I, Liu Yan, thank him for his good intentions!"
It was obvious that Liu Yan's words carried an indescribable feeling of conflict. Even Liu Xin could see this.
However, Liu Xin still lowered his head and stuttered: "Younger Brother Yan, you're not a young person anymore, don't be angry anymore. After all, everyone here is of Liu Family, so why would they need it? "
After swallowing his saliva, Liu Xin continued: "Furthermore, and this time, the Patriarch had also chosen a good marriage for that girl Mingmei. You …"
Without waiting for Liu Xin to finish speaking, Liu Yan's face immediately became extremely ugly. If the previous Liu Yan was still sad, then the current Liu Yan was furious, completely angry.
He abruptly stood up and rudely interrupted Liu Xin's speech. Liu Yan asked: "Lao Er Liu, what did you say?"
Liu Xin was naturally aware of Liu Yan's temper. He was shocked and his expression became embarrassed as he hurriedly explained: "Younger Brother Yan, Younger Brother Yan, don't, don't be anxious, the master of the household is very considerate this time, the son-in-law chosen for you is a young master of the Bai Family, a descendant of three generations of the Bai Family, and in the future, he will be the master of Bai Family. In the future, once you have the Bai Family to back you up, wouldn't your capital have the wind and rain as well? "
"Bastard!" Liu Yan unrestrainedly started to curse, if not for the fact that this was his own home, Liu Yan would have already smashed his cup and bowl.
"Family marriage, this is a damn family marriage again." Liu Yan's anger rose to a new high, then scolded: "The old man just passed away, is our great Patriarch already prepared to take action against our family?"
Saying that, Liu Yan pointed at Liu Xin and said: Lao Er Liu, to think that you are still the heir to our family, are you just going to watch helplessly as we get fish?
Liu Xin felt guilty, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Liu Xin sighed helplessly, and said: "Younger Brother Yan, you and I are both from the same Liu Family, so how could we possibly begin to hear the words of 'fish meat'? What's more, that girl, Mei-liang, is no longer young. It's time for them to discuss marriage. I have also seen that Young Master from the Bai Family, a young genius, spoke of unordinary things, but was actually a good match. [If the beautiful girl could give it to him, I, as an uncle, would be relieved!]
"Bastard!"1
Liu Yan could not contain his anger and continued to curse: "An Xin? Lao Er Liu, speak honestly. Just how many benefits did you take from them to actually speak up for them in this way. "
"Brother Yan, aren't I thinking for you and our family when you say these words?" Liu Xin immediately explained, but his words lacked confidence.
Liu Yan waved his sleeves: "Hmph, Lao Er Liu, even if what you said today was extravagant, I, Liu Yan will still not give in on this matter. Mingmei is my daughter, and I am the only one who can decide her marriage. If you want to use her to make some kind of family marriage, dream about it, I will definitely not agree to it! "
As Liu Yan spoke, he crossed his arms in defeat and sat down on his own sofa.
Liu Xin was helpless and consoled, "Little Brother Yan, why do you have to go through so much trouble? In my opinion, Bai Jun is a good guy … "
Liu Yan, like an angry lion, roared at Liu Xin: "Lao Er Liu, don't you have your own daughter? If you feel that Bai Family brat is not bad, why didn't you send your own daughter to the Bai Family? "
"This …" Liu Xin was momentarily speechless.
After all, everyone understood the principle of entering a marquis' clan being as deep as the sea.
Just as Liu Yan and Liu Xin were at a stalemate, a burst of laughter suddenly came out from within Liu Family's villa.
Hearing this unfamiliar yet familiar voice, Liu Yan's body trembled, his face filled with fear: "Eastwoods guard?"
