Chapter 175 Zhang Qing
Seeing Meng Yu smile at her like she did back then, Bai Yue was filled with excitement and joy. Could it be that Aunt Meng had forgiven her?
Bai Yue stepped forward excitedly, "Aunt Meng, you still remember me? How are you?"
"Of course I remember. You are Yueyue, how could I forget?" Meng Yu looked at Bai Yue with affection.
"We've been waiting for you for quite a while. Come in with me. The old man is waiting for you!"
Upon hearing the meaning behind Meng Yu's words, Bai Yue was thrilled. Over the years, she had been here countless times, but this was the first time Meng Yu had treated her with such an attitude.
This was the first time I had invited her in. Could it be that Uncle Zhang has recovered?
Unable to contain her reverie, Bai Yue followed Meng Yu inside with a light heart.
The three people she had forgotten behind her exchanged helpless glances and silently followed behind her.
Upon entering, the group felt that the lighting inside was extremely dim and the space was very cramped. Standing together, they felt as if the entire space was filled up.
Lu Yi looked around the room, and when he saw yellow talismans with red characters on a yellow background pasted on many places, a deep meaning flashed in his eyes.
Ye Ran naturally saw it too. She exchanged a glance with Lu Yi, and a wave of suspicion rose in her heart again...
Meng Yu was busy tidying up the embroidery thread in her hands. Seeing that her eyesight was poor and she kept tangling the thread, Bai Yue quickly stepped forward to help her sort it out.
After tidying up, Meng Yu put away some of the things around her, smiled at them, and got up to go into the inner room.
Ye Ran noticed that Grandma Meng was collecting sharp objects. Why was that? Did she have children at home?
Ye Ran stared intently at the yellow talisman pasted on the pillar beside her, wanting to go forward and take a look, but Lu Yi pulled her back.
Lu Yi whispered in Ye Ran's ear, "Be careful, something feels strange."
Ye Ran quickly stopped in her tracks. She was about to say a few words to Lu Yi when she heard footsteps coming from the inner room. This time, it was the sound of two people's footsteps...
Ye Ran quickly looked up and saw Grandma Meng helping an old man with white hair and beard, who was quite disheveled, walk out.
The old man looked like he hadn't been groomed in a long time; his hair and beard had grown so long that they were hanging loose.
His body could only be described as emaciated; he had no energy or spirit and leaned weakly against Meng Yu.
His breath was weak, as if he was barely clinging to life, but his eyes were extremely deep.
Those were eyes as deep as a bottomless pool. The moment they appeared, those eyes didn't even glance at them. Instead, they carefully surveyed the surrounding space.
After he had carefully read through it once, he looked away in a daze, and then, as if he had noticed their presence, he looked over at them.
His gaze first fell on the most eye-catching Lu Yi and Ye Ran, but after glancing at them a few times, he looked away with boredom.
When he finally focused his gaze on Bai Yue and Ye Jun, his eyes widened to their maximum size.
At this moment, his eyes, which had been like a dry well, began to reveal a multitude of human emotions: surprise, joy, sadness, guilt...
Bai Yue and Ye Jun had also been holding back for a long time. Twenty years... they hadn't seen Uncle Zhang for all these years...
How spirited Uncle Zhang was back then!
He was always impeccably dressed in a suit and tie, his hair always perfectly styled, you'd never see him with a scraggly beard, but now...
