Chapter 159: Just Persuade the Elderly
Xie Yan looked at the person next to him. There were only bones in the tomb, and he stared at the skeleton.
The old man burst into tears. He went to hold the bones and found a piece of cloth. It was sealed with wax and must have been sewn to his leg.
Old man Xie was beaten to death, but he died a few days later.
Xie Yan buried him without touching his body.
Xie Jinqiao opened the cloth and cried so hard that he almost fainted.
"Brother! Why didn't you wait for me..."
“Why?”
…
Xie Yan squatted beside him and smoked. He was too young at the time and was unable to protect the old man.
Now seeing that his bones were broken, he felt a surge of hatred in his heart.
He pictured in his mind the deaths of his murderers.
He smashed the head of one man and burned another to death. He listened to his cries of pain and felt extremely happy.
Another one was drowned in a river in winter. He froze to death, his head hanging on the ice and his body beneath the ice...
Xie Yan's mouth curled up. After all, they were not very happy when they died.
The people behind him were sorting out their emotions. Xie Yan didn't know what had happened between them, but this old man looked similar to Old Man Xie.
He finished smoking while squatting, poked the cigarette butt into the mud and stood up.
"Do you want to take him with you?" Xie Yan would not stop him, because the two brothers had not seen each other for many years, and he could understand if he wanted to take him back.
Xie Jinqiao shook his head. He had calmed down at this moment.
He forced himself to stand up and looked at the skeleton: "He wants to stay here."
Xie Yan remained silent, but Xie Jinqiao said, "He's very worried about you."
Xie Yan looked at the skeleton, but didn't know what to say.
Xie Jinqiao gestured to the bodyguard: "Cover it up. Tomorrow, put up some tables and chairs and tidy up the surroundings. Then I can come and have tea with my brother."
"yes!!"
Those people took action quickly.
Xie Yan did not stop him. Although everyone had lost those empty things, it was still the sustenance of the living.
Xie Jinqiao looked at the darkness around him and sighed, "When people get old, they always miss the past."
"My purpose in living before was to find my big brother. Now that I've found him, I don't know what the point of living is anymore."
Xie Yan looked at the curling smoke from the kitchen at home and pursed his lips. "People never live for anyone. It's only when there is that person living with them that life becomes meaningful."
What the hell!
This is how you persuade an old man, but he himself doesn't believe it.
Without his wife, he felt that life had no meaning.
Xie Jinqiao chuckled: "I'm already past the age of knowing my destiny, and you still let a child persuade me..."
Xie Yan interrupted him: "Who is the child?!"
He was a little unhappy: "I'm already married, how can it be a child? Old man, watch your words."
Xie Jinqiao laughed heartily after hearing what he said. "Now I understand why my elder brother adopted you."
This kid didn't have the narrow-mindedness of a country boy, nor did he have the temperament to flatter women. It seemed that to him, I was just an extra stranger.
He wouldn't bow down to him for that.
People like this are rare.
Xie Yan glanced at him and said, "If you have nothing else, go home early. I have to go home for dinner."
Xie Jinqiao looked at him and suddenly asked, "Can I have dinner at your house?"
It's been a long time since I've sat down to eat with someone. It would be nice if we could just chat for a bit...
Taozhi cooked a lot of food because there were so many people and she couldn't let them all go hungry.
After all, he is Xie Yan's relative.
