Chapter 75: Facing all living things in this world, there are only a few lonely people
"Old Wei, are you telling me that my big brother who has been missing for thirteen years is back?!"
As soon as Chen An got on the carriage prepared by his family, he began to doubt his ears.
He stared at the servant in front of him.
Old Wei has been working for the Chen family for almost ten years. His children also work for the Chen family. He is one of Chen Rong's confidants. There is absolutely no reason for him to suddenly lie to him.
Especially such an absurd lie...
Old Wei nodded. "Yes, this morning the two security guards came up to report it. I thought they were just fools and had been scammed again..."
He sighed, "When I got there, I saw the young man standing at the door. Although his eyes were covered with a black cloth, he looked exactly like Madam Gan when she was young, only more handsome!"
"I was so shocked that I immediately called Madam Gan to see him. As soon as she saw the young man, she burst into tears and said that it must be the eldest young master."
"We just chatted for a while, and I've already convinced the master. Now I've arranged for him to move into the east wing."
Chen An frowned deeply when he heard this:
"Just based on this person's appearance? Haven't you verified his identity and background?"
Although they announced to the public that Chen Kuang was lost for the sake of reputation, the two siblings naturally knew clearly what happened to their eldest brother who was obviously not there but always had a strong presence in the family.
After all, back then, Chen Kuang sacrificed himself to save the lives of his entire family.
I've been listening to Gan Tang telling stories over and over again for so many years that my ears are getting calluses.
It wasn't that he was annoyed, but when Chen Kuang left, he was only four years old and his little sister was only three years old. Now that they had grown up, their memories of what happened were very vague.
As for Chen Kuang himself, he had no impression at all, and naturally he did not have as deep an obsession with him as Chen Rong and Gan Tang.
After living for so many years, a big brother suddenly appeared.
The first reaction is naturally to confirm the authenticity of the other party's identity. The Chen family is no longer what it used to be. Family business is one thing, and the changing situation in Jishao County and Cao Gang is another.
Chen An was afraid that it was his own enemies who were causing trouble again...
If this is true, then the other party has really hit our soft spot. We must find out the truth as soon as possible to avoid endless troubles.
Old Wei shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Without the master's order, we servants wouldn't dare to investigate on our own."
He whispered, "I saw the master chatting with that... young master for a while, and he seemed to have cried. I think he's probably a liar."
"But there's one thing that's strange. When the young master came, he brought a few female companions with him. He said they were fleeing the chaos and needed to stay with him for a while."
Old Wei looked strange. "I see there's a mother and daughter in there. The lady is almost as old as Madam Gan."
Those who fled together during the war would not really be doing good deeds.
The young master's taste... is really hard to evaluate.
Chen An was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, I understand. You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. Just send more people to protect my parents and report to me about my 'big brother's' movements from time to time."
It is indeed not appropriate for Lao Wei to intervene in this matter, he will investigate it himself.
However, before that, he wanted to see who this "big brother" was!
Chen An pulled the curtain and got in. The carriage sped towards the Chen Mansion.
…
Because the private school was closer to the Chen Mansion, Chen Ning had already stepped into the courtyard of the east wing before Chen An arrived.
Chen Ning inherited Gan Tang's looks. He had a good-looking face, a pair of dark eyebrows like distant mountains, pupils like ripples, and a thin black mole at the corner of his eye, which added a bit of softness and charm to his appearance.
She has clear eyes and an elegant temperament. She wears a lotus-colored skirt that makes her look like a willow swaying in the wind, and she is graceful and charming when she walks.
Chen Ning had just returned from private school, still holding a book in his hand.
From a distance, before I saw anyone, I heard a deep piano sound coming from the yard.
After just listening to this short segment, Chen Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide.
The sound of the piano was so sublime and clear that it was refreshing and invigorating. It was far better than the piece played by the monk from Tianyin Pavilion that she had the honor of listening to two years ago!
There is no need to even compare, the difference is so stark that the superiority is immediately apparent.
Is this...her elder brother whom she has never met playing the piano?
Chen Ning subconsciously held his breath, not wanting to disturb the piano music, fearing that it would suddenly disappear.
She didn't say anything, but just stood there and watched for a while.
But unfortunately, this piece is coming to an end.
After about half a quarter of an hour, it stopped.
The bamboo leaves around were rustling in the wind, but when the sound of the piano died down, the bamboo leaves suddenly stopped and everything was silent.
The whole world was quiet for a moment, the clouds stopped and the wind died down, even the sparrows in the trees tilted their heads in confusion and stopped chirping.
But in a moment, everything is back to normal.
Chen Ning felt lost, closed his eyes, and was still immersed in the music for a long time.
She was known as the "Talented Lady of Dongting". She loved both books and the zither. She believed that the zither was an elegant instrument that could reflect the human heart, just like the ancient legend of Boya and Ziqi, who could communicate with each other through the zither.
When she came, she was worried that this big brother who suddenly came to visit her might be a bad guy pretending to be her.
But at this moment, all the worries in my heart have disappeared.
Just based on this song, it is impossible for it to come from a narrow-minded person!
From this song, Chen Ning heard the open-mindedness and calmness of not caring about the world, but he also vaguely heard a hint of loneliness of walking alone in the world.
