Chapter 45



Farewell! Liu Feiyu

Liu Feiyan's silly expression gradually swept away the haze in Liu Buqi's heart.

"Lingxi, this is my younger brother Liu Feiyan. When I left home, I was the same age as you!" Although there were still tears on her face.

But Liu Buqi was already impatient to introduce the two most important men in her life to each other.

"Fei Yan, you have to call me...well, brother-in-law!" Liu Buqi rarely uses "specific names" to describe the relationship between himself and Yue Lingxi.

After I said it, I felt my face getting hot, and I actually had a special feeling of bringing a "boyfriend" home!

As for the two men, they obviously couldn't switch roles quickly. They just stared at each other blankly, and no one spoke first.

It was difficult for Liu Buqi to understand this feeling, but a vague sense of satisfaction inexplicably emerged in his heart.

The villagers kneeling on the ground were actually a nuisance at this time. Yue Lingxi waved his hand, and naturally the soldiers came to clear them out one after another.

As for the eldest brother and his wife, they were naturally also within the scope of the clearing. On the day of family reunion, they could hardly be considered as Liu Buqi's relatives.

"Let's go, let's go see our parents first!" Liu Buqi said this very naturally.

The graves of Liu Feiyu's parents are on a small hill not far from the village. Unlike most of the villagers buried here, there is a bluestone tombstone in front of the grave.

It is clear from the style and inscription of the stele that this is the final resting place of scholars.

My father had taken the imperial examination in his time and later returned to the village to become a private school teacher. He was considered a rare scholar in this area.

Not to mention Yue Lingxi's current status, even if he was still the unwelcome illegitimate child in the Hou Mansion, there would be no need to perform the memorial ceremony here. Being able to light incense in person is already a great honor for the Liu family!

But he still accompanied Liu Buqi and Liu Feiyan, brother and sister, to kowtow three times respectfully, fulfilling the royal duties of a son-in-law paying homage to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

At this moment, along with the clear smoke from the burning of the memorial items, the voices and smiles of his parents kept intertwining in Liu Buqi's mind, and the memories of Liu Feiyu were completely integrated with Liu Buqi himself!

As a time traveler, Liu Buqi has no unforgettable love, hate, or emotions, and no unbearable burden that he cannot let go of.

Therefore, she could face the unfamiliar dynasty and unfamiliar life calmly. But the memory of Liu Feiyu, who had always been deliberately ignored, never disappeared from her mind!

Homesickness is so strong! If Liu Buqi never returned to the capital, never passed through this "homeland", Liu Feiyu's memory would probably be just like an extra tragic movie in Liu Buqi's mind.

But once you return to this extremely familiar environment, the memories of two completely different life trajectories overlap, which is definitely a collision between illusion and reality!

This is also thanks to the fact that Liu Buqi was originally an orphan without parents, brothers or sisters. Liu Feiyu's memory filled the gap in her previously incomplete life!

Otherwise, the collision of two completely different emotional contributions and the inseparable family ties can easily cause a person's mental split!

After the changes of this day and night, Liu Buqi was able to calmly inherit all of Liu Feiyu's feelings and memories, and accepted the family experience he had never had before!

Only at this moment did Liu Feiyu truly disappear between heaven and earth! Or rather, he existed in another way!

"Goodbye, Liu Feiyu!"

After returning from the grave of Liu Buqi's parents, Liu Feiyan, who was still young at heart, was still in a state of grief and started to complain that he was hungry.

Although he had been terrified all morning, his beloved sister had finally returned! In the boy's heart, the past five years seemed like yesterday, and there was no way any distance could exist between them.

Yue Lingxi was about to ask someone to get some food. Unexpectedly, Liu Buqi had already skillfully rolled up his clothes, found the food stored at home, and cleaned the pot to prepare dinner!

"Um...are you sure you can cook?"

Yue Lingxi clearly remembered the first day they arrived in Yanjing. Liu Buqi threatened him to cook by saying "marry a man and he will provide you with food and clothing"!

"Stop talking nonsense! Go, go out and borrow a light!"

As soon as the words came out, Liu Buqi felt a little amused and confused! Back then, he had forced Yue Lingxi to go out and borrow fire, but he didn't expect that so many years had passed in the blink of an eye!

The skinny "little boy" in front of me has now become my most reliable support when I am helpless!

The two of them smiled at each other, irritating Liu Feiyan who was standing beside them. "My sister's cooking is delicious! Go get some fire! I'm starving!"

He glared fiercely at this "light bulb"! Yue Lingxi walked out of the door helplessly. After rejecting Zhang Xiruo's outstretched hand, he ordered all the guards to withdraw from Liujia Village.

This kind of ordinary home life like an old couple is really addictive!

Yue Lingxi ate these simple home-cooked dishes with gusto, while Liu Feiyan devoured them rather voraciously!

Over the years, he was driven by his brother and sister-in-law to live in a thatched hut in their own fields, saying that it was so that he could study quietly, but in fact it was just an extra strong laborer who could be called at any time.

Normally, we don’t even have a decent meal, and it’s unprecedented for the whole family to sit in the yard and talk and chat.

Liu Buqi was crying while adding more food to her brother's meal, which made Yue Lingxi comfort her again.

"Well... I say... stop crying! You're so sentimental just because you're back home! If your subordinates saw this, they'd be horrified!"

"I can do whatever I want in my own home! Besides, take my brother away, you figure it out!"

Perhaps it was this feeling of "home" that really made her relaxed, and Liu Buqi rarely acted like a spoiled brat in front of Yue Lingxi.

Yue Lingxi also enjoyed this feeling. Although the states strictly prohibited the movement of people due to the confrontation between the Crown Prince and Guannei Hou, it was obviously not a problem for the "King of Youzhou".

After dinner, Yue Lingxi and Liu Feiyan washed the dishes and started practicing with wooden sticks in the yard. Which young man doesn’t have a "hero dream"?

What's more, I just found out that this cheap brother-in-law is actually the world-famous Taiyue hero! The pillar of the Northern Frontier as told by storytellers!

The word "brother-in-law" came out so naturally!

Liu Buqi sat on a rattan chair, quietly watching the two noisy relatives! Leisure time is short after all, and the upcoming trip to the capital will be the beginning of another battle!

The dangers in the court were far more brutal and ruthless than those on the battlefield! Both Yue Lingxi and Liu Buqi were well aware of this!

Therefore, this day at "home" is the final rest and the final warmth!
