Hearing footsteps, Xu Tiansheng looked up and saw Xu Jinfeng walking in with Su Jinyue. He pointed to the seat opposite him and said, "Sit down!"
Xu Jinfeng walked over to Xu Tiansheng and sat down. He looked at Xu Tiansheng and said excitedly, "Second Uncle, I'm Xiaofeng. Do you still remember me?" When he was a child, he loved to pester his second uncle the most. His second uncle would often bring him candies.
Su Jinyue glanced at the two of them, closed the door, and walked out. If the master wanted her to know, he would tell her.
Xu Tiansheng nodded. "Is everything okay at home?" He still felt a little homesick after all these years, but whenever he thought about how his family had separated him from the person he loved for their own benefit and forced him to marry a woman he didn't like, he felt sad. If his family hadn't opposed it, he would have a happy family now, with a wife who loved him and children of his own.
Xu Jinfeng smiled and nodded. "My father and Third Uncle are so happy to know you're back in Beijing. Second Uncle, come back with me." He didn't dare mention Second Aunt, for fear that his Second Uncle would be upset. His Second Uncle had left because he was unhappy that Grandpa had helped him marry Second Aunt despite his objections. Second Aunt was indeed a good woman, but no matter how good she was, she still couldn't catch his eye.
Xu Tiansheng shook his head and said, "I'm not going back. Tell your father and your third uncle that I'm doing well now and they don't have to worry about me." Since he had chosen to leave, he would never go back.
Xu Jinfeng hesitated for a long time and said, "Second uncle, is it because of second aunt that you don't go back?" Grandpa and grandma had passed away long ago, and his father and third uncle had always had a good relationship with his second uncle. Apart from second aunt, he couldn't think of any other reason.
"How is she now?" Xu Tiansheng asked. He had initially disliked that woman, but later he felt a certain indignation towards her. She was even more pitiful than he was. Her family had forced him to marry her for profit, so she too was a victim of that profit. Perhaps, like him, she also had a loved one, but was forced to separate because of her family.
"Second Aunt has been living alone in Qingyuan for years," Xu Jinfeng said. One day of loneliness is bearable, but who could endure twenty-plus years of loneliness? Sometimes he really admired Second Aunt for being able to live alone for so many years.
"She didn't remarry?" Xu Tiansheng was a little surprised. Although he and Lin Junman had a wedding, they had never even met each other. Moreover, he hadn't heard from her in all these years. Anyone else would have left and married someone else.
"We've all tried to persuade Second Aunt, but she said she'll never remarry. Second Uncle, Second Aunt is truly a wonderful woman." Xu Jinfeng looked at Xu Tiansheng. He truly hoped that Second Uncle could return and be with Second Aunt. Although they had missed each other for so many years, it wasn't too late for them to be together now. It just seemed like Second Uncle already had his own family.
"I know, I'm sorry for her." Xu Tiansheng sighed.
"Uncle, do you have your own family?" Xu Jinfeng asked. He knew the answer was yes; the young woman must be his uncle's daughter.
Xu Tiansheng wanted to say no, but stopped talking and said, "Xiaofeng, go back."
"Second Uncle, my father and Third Uncle are waiting for you at home. Please come back with me." Xu Jinfeng looked at Xu Tiansheng, hoping that he would agree to go back with him.
"Xiaofeng, I won't go back to that home. You don't have to come look for me anymore. I won't see you." Xu Tiansheng closed his eyes and ignored Xu Jinfeng. He had made up his mind.
He didn't go back to that home, not only because of what happened in the past, but more because of guilt. After he left, he wrote a letter to his friend, asking him to tell him if he had any news. After receiving the letter, his friend wrote back to him, telling him that his mother had become ill because of him and had never recovered. Hearing that his mother was sick because of him, he secretly ran back to the capital, but when he arrived in the capital, his mother had passed away. At that time, he was really guilty and regretful. But no matter how much he regretted, it was irreversible, so he swore that he would never return to the capital in his life and would never set foot in the Xu family again.
"Second Uncle!" Xu Jinfeng called out, hoping Xu Tiansheng would change his mind.
But Xu Tiansheng remained indifferent and ignored him with his eyes closed.
Xu Jinfeng looked at Xu Tiansheng for a long time before he sighed deeply, stood up and walked out.
Su Jinyue saw Xu Jinfeng coming out and nodded at him.
"Cousin, I'm your eldest uncle's son, your cousin," Xu Jinfeng said. He knew Su Jinyue's last name wasn't Xu, and he guessed his second uncle didn't want to be associated with the Xu family, so he made Su Jinyue take that woman's last name. As for that woman's last name, he had forgotten it. After all, he was still young at the time, and adults wouldn't tell him such things. But since Su Jinyue's last name was Su, her mother's should be Su.
The reason he found this place was actually because of Su Jinyue. He was reading the newspaper yesterday when he suddenly thought of Su Jinyue. He remembered seeing her photo in the newspaper. Although her photo was a little blurry, he had a photographic memory since he was a child, so he found the newspaper. The moment he saw the newspaper, he was sure that the person in the newspaper was Su Jinyue.
He immediately told his father the news. After making inquiries, his father finally heard about Su Jinyue from Dean Lin Musheng. They had never imagined that Su Jinyue was such a capable person. Not only had he defeated the Japanese doctor, but he had also defeated several internationally renowned and authoritative doctors.
Their Xu family was originally a family of traditional Chinese medicine, but by his father's generation, except for his second uncle, his father and third uncle were not interested in traditional Chinese medicine, so by his generation, no one was studying traditional Chinese medicine.
"I'm not you..." Su Jinyue wanted to say that she was not his cousin. When she heard Xu Tiansheng calling her from inside, she glanced at Xu Jinfeng and walked into the house.
"Master." Su Jinyue walked into the room and sat down opposite Xu Tiansheng.
"Jinyue, I want to go back to Shangxin Village. I'll come back on the day of your wedding." Xu Tiansheng said. Tianbang and Tianqi would definitely come looking for him when Xiaofeng returned this time. He really didn't want to see them.
"Master, do you want to keep running away like this?" Su Jinyue asked. She could tell that her master cared about the Xu family.
"You don't understand." Xu Tiansheng said.
"Master, can you tell me why?" Su Jinyue asked. Xu Jinfeng must have put a lot of thought into finding this place, and from Xu Jinfeng's excited expression, it can be seen that the Xu family cares about Master very much.
