Chapter 211



"That year I was ten years old, and I had just returned from the battlefield. On my way back to Beijing, I encountered more than ten assassination attempts. Once, when I passed through Fuzhou City, I couldn't resist and was seriously injured. When I fled, I jumped into the sea."

"After I woke up, I was at Aunt Mu's house. I realized that I was saved by Uncle Mu and his friends. I had no one around me at the time, so I could only stay here under an assumed name to recuperate."

"At that time, Aunt Mu and Uncle Mu were very kind to me, which made me feel the long-lost family love. The people here were also very simple, and I gradually fell in love with this place. There was no intrigue, no killing on the battlefield, and it was peaceful and beautiful."

Li Xiaochen said this while looking at the sea in front of him with a gentle tone.

"I understand! Ah Chen, you still have me in the future! I will give you a home!"

Lin Yuxin reached out and held Li Xiaochen's hand with some heartache and said softly.

Li Xiaochen regarded Haiya Village as a pure land in his heart, a place that made him warm.

Li Xiaochen felt warm in his heart, and he knew that his Xinxin understood him!

Suddenly Lin Yuxin looked ahead and shouted in surprise:

"Look, isn't that a sunset?"

Li Xiaochen and Xiaohao turned their heads together, staring straight at Yu Hui!

"So beautiful! Xiaohao, isn't it so beautiful!"

Lin Yuxin held one in each hand and shouted in surprise.

“Mm, very beautiful!”

Xiao Hao nodded, looking at the beautiful scenery he had never seen before. He suddenly understood his sister's worries. He didn't know if he would have the chance to see such a beautiful scenery again in the future!

However, if he can protect this beauty and peace, he is willing to do it, because it was his sister who made him realize that there are other beautiful things in this world, and he wants to protect them.

Xiaohao looked at the magnificent sunset, his eyes changing from uneasy and worried at first to increasingly determined.

The three of them looked for a while and then went back. However, because the sun had already set, the sky was still dark and people could only be seen faintly.

The three of them still groped their way to find Aunt Mu's house.

"Auntie Mu, we are back."

Lin Yuxin and Li Xiaochen pushed the door open and walked in, shouting obediently.

"Hey, I was just wondering where you guys went to play. It's been so long and you haven't come back yet. It's already dark. Have you eaten yet?"

Aunt Mu had been waiting for them in the yard. When she saw them coming back, she walked up to them and asked worriedly.

"Not yet?"

Lin Yuxin touched her stomach aggrievedly. After playing for a whole afternoon, she was indeed hungry!

"Xiao Chen is the same. When his wife was hungry, he didn't even bring her home to eat. The child is still so young and needs to grow. How can she not eat?"

When Aunt Mu heard this, she looked at Lin Yuxin and Xiaohao with heartache, glared at Li Xiaochen and scolded them.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I won't do it again tomorrow."

Li Xiaochen surrendered repeatedly. He couldn't afford to provoke him, but he could afford to hide from him.

Because Li Xiaochen had been in Haiya Village, he had never revealed his identity and did not reveal it when he left.

Li Xiaochen only said that he was born to both his parents and was raised by his uncle, so Aunt Mu and the others didn't know Li Xiaochen's true identity, and they treated him as their own child out of love.

Li Xiaochen also enjoyed the feeling of being loved, so he was very grateful to Aunt Mu's family and was more tolerant towards them.

"Come in and sit down. The food is ready and we are waiting for you. Your uncle Mu has gone to the village chief's house to deliver fish and will be back soon."

Aunt Mu took Lin Yuxin and walked into the house, talking as she walked.

Lin Yuxin and Aunt Mu talked about where they went and what they did today.

As soon as they sat down, they heard a slightly rough male voice coming from outside:

"Amei, I'm back. Have Xiaochen and the others come back? If not, I'll go look for them! It's so late, it's not safe to be outside!"

When Aunt Mu heard this, she hurriedly got up and went out to greet him, saying:

"I'm back. I just came back a while ago. I've been waiting for you to come back for dinner! Put the basket away, wash your hands and come in for dinner!"

"Oh! Good!"

Uncle Mu smiled naively, then turned around to scoop a bucket of water, washed his hands clean before entering the house.

After seeing Li Xiaochen, he burst into laughter:

"Haha, Xiaochen! I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back, come sit down and eat, you're welcome!"

"Uncle Mu! Long time no see!"

Li Xiaochen also greeted with a smile!

"We are a family and we don't talk about this. This is your wife, right? She is so pretty. Xiaochen is so lucky!"

Uncle Mu was chatting with Li Xiaochen in a simple and honest manner, and his eyes were full of love when he saw Lin Yuxin!

Lin Yuxin's cheeks turned slightly red when Uncle Mu praised her, and she suddenly became shy!

"Haha, yes, it's my blessing!"

Li Xiaochen was also watching Lin Yuxin from the side, smiling brightly, looking like she was the best daughter-in-law.

It looks so worthless, it's really unbearable to look at!

Aunt Mu is a typical farm woman. She wears simple clothes, has simple hair styles, and does things neatly and efficiently.

Her facial features are also very delicate, and she is of the gentle type. Uncle Mu is not tall, only slightly taller than Aunt Mu, but he is a typical rough man, and he often has an honest smile on his face, which makes people feel that he is a good person at first glance.

The couple looked like good people with kind hearts.

After the family had finished their meal, Aunt Mu took Lin Yuxin to the next door cabin with a new quilt, made the bed, and then took Lin Yuxin's hand and said to her:

"Yuxin! You and Xiaochen will sleep in the wooden house tonight. This house used to be used to store sundries. Xiaochen was injured before, so your uncle and I cleared this place out for Xiaochen to sleep in."

"We haven't removed the bed in the past few years. We just wanted to keep it as a memory, thinking that if Xiaochen comes back one day, he will have a place to stay!"

Aunt Mu said this, her mood was a little low, her eyes were full of loneliness and sadness, she looked at Lin Yuxin and continued:

"Your uncle and I both know that Xiaochen's identity is not simple. He didn't tell us, and we didn't ask. We just treated him as an ordinary child. As long as he is still willing to associate with us, we will also treat him as our own child."

"After he left, we thought he would never come back, but we didn't expect that this child not only came back, but also brought his wife back with him. This also makes us feel relieved. You two should take good care of yourself in the future, understand?"

Aunt Mu sighed softly.

Lin Yuxin looked at Aunt Mu holding her and said with a smile:

"Auntie Mu, we will be fine, don't worry! Xiaochen had a hard life before, and he earned everything with his life, so he has always been lonely. When I knew him, he was not like he is now, talking and laughing, and would even help with things."

"At that time, he was very cold and indifferent to everyone. But when he came here, he relaxed and laughed and chatted with the villagers. I didn't expect that."

"Aunt Mu, he regarded this place as his home and Haiya Village as a safe haven. It was you and Uncle Mu who warmed him up, so Aunt Mu, you don't have to be sad. Your son is gone, and Xiaochen will be your son from now on. I am your daughter-in-law, and we will take time out every year to come back and see you!"

Lin Yuxin couldn't bear to see others sad, so she quickly comforted them in a soft voice.
