Chapter 262: First Release What do you think? Yu Chang. ...
His disbelieving gaze shifted downwards, gradually landing on Chen Zhizhi in front of him. Wen Yu was so stunned that she was speechless.
In the past three hundred years, in a place she had never set foot on, there were people who were thinking about her and missing her, worried that she would not be able to find the way back and would have nowhere to go.
Wenzhu.
Looking back, Wen Heng was standing in front of her holding Wen Bao's hand, his eyes full of emotion and tears.
"You are Wenzhu's descendant." Wen Yu said with difficulty.
Time flies, old friends are gone, but there are always traces to prove that they have been here.
Even though a mortal's life is but a moment to her, but...
Wen Yu stared deeply at every inch of Wen Ji's shop.
The sweet aroma of rock sugar mixed with the astringency of hawthorn fruit produced a unique fragrance that wrapped her tightly, as if she was being held in Wenzhu's gentle arms.
She and Wenzhu were together for only a short time, but their friendship spanned a hundred years.
"Yes, Auntie." Wen Heng nodded affirmatively, "This is my younger sister Wenbao."
Wen Yu looked at Wen Bao's round eyes and couldn't help but smile slightly with the corners of her lips.
Seeing Wen Yu's brows relax, Yu Chang, who was standing beside her, also calmed down a little.
This... is what Wen Yu should experience, and he will not stop or hinder it.
I just hope she can be a little more at ease.
However, despite saying this, Yu Chang felt a little sad. They should have gone straight to Zhongzhou on this trip, but it was he who persuaded Wen Yu to come down for a walk.
Looking back now, I don’t know whether it was right or wrong…
Suddenly, Wen Yu seemed to remember something and asked Wen Heng, "Since you are a descendant of Wen Zhu, you must know about Song--"
But as soon as she said that, Wen Yu stopped talking. She looked at the "Second Young Master Song" that everyone had just mentioned, and seemed to have some vague feeling about him.
Wen Heng was also quick-witted and understood immediately. He greeted Song Zhuo and Wen Liangyi beside him, and also answered Wen Yu.
"These two are Song Zhuo, the second son of the Song family, and Liang Yi, the fourth son of the Wen family."
Song Zhuohe responded to Wen Liangyi's words and greeted Wen Yu in turn, calling out "Auntie" in a docile manner.
But he didn't stay still for a moment. Wen Liangyi muttered unwillingly, "Hey, hey, hey, Wen Heng, how come he is the Second Young Master and I am the Fourth Young Master, and you..."
Wen Heng glanced at Wen Liangyi indifferently, as if telling him to shut up, but Wen Liangyi was always soft-hearted and never listened to advice.
Helplessly, Song Zhuo stepped forward and covered Wen Liangyi tightly with his wide fox fur collar to prevent him from embarrassing himself in front of his aunt.
Seeing the faint apology on Song Zhuo's face, Wen Yu nodded in response.
"Auntie, you can probably guess." Chen Zhizhi took over the conversation and continued, "Song Zhuo is a descendant of Brother Song Yuan, and Wen Liangyi is naturally a descendant of Uncle Wen and Mr. Zhou."
Uncle Wen, Mr. Zhou.
Wen Yu gradually understood what was going on after hearing this name combined with Zhizhi's identity.
Song Zhuo's identity was within her expectations.
But this Fourth Master Wen, Wen Liangyi...
Could they be the descendants of Wen Yanli and Zhou Lehui?
Doesn’t this mean that in the end Zhou Lehui and Wen Yanli finally got together?
At this moment, Wen Yu couldn't help but think of the words his master had said again -
The mountains and seas will have their own time to return, and there will always be a reunion despite wind and rain.
After experiencing all the separations, love and hate, Zhou Lehui and Wen Yanli finally had a good ending.
But... at that time, Zhou Lehui and Wen Yanli broke up completely, and now she and Song Linsheng are separated by life and death.
Wen Yu's heart faltered, but she quickly covered it up, holding Chen Zhizhi's hand instead, nodding in response, "Yeah."
Chen Zhizhi was still paying close attention to Wen Yu's expression, but he couldn't help but start talking.
A lot of things had indeed happened over the past few hundred years. In addition to what her mother had told her, she had long wanted to tell her aunt about them one by one.
"Song Zhuo is the second child in the family. His elder brother, Song Yu, is an official in Shangdu. He won't be able to make it back tonight."
"I just received news about Wenbao. I have already sent a letter. I believe that brother will be able to come back to see aunt soon."
Song Zhuo covered his face and coughed lightly, then hurriedly explained.
As soon as these words came out, Wen Yu turned to look at Wen Bao, waiting for her to speak.
"This is all my idea..." Chen Zhizhi shrank his neck and whispered, "I just discussed with Wen Bao about sending someone to deliver the message to Song Zhuo and Wen Liangyi..."
Wen Yu smiled but said nothing. In fact, at this point, everything Fang Zhi had planned when she entered the store seemed to have been blown away by the wind and revealed to the world. She had already guessed most of it.
Seeing that she didn't want to pursue the matter further, Chen Zhizhi quickly changed the subject and continued talking.
"Wen Liangyi, also known as Wen Jibai, is the fourth child in the family, and has three older brothers: Bohui, Zhongxia, and Shuqin."
Wen Jibai took a bite of the butterfly cake and replied vaguely, "My brothers are not in Jiangyang right now. Please forgive me, aunt."
Everyone was talking at once, eager to tell Wen Yu all about the changes that had taken place in Jiangyang Prefecture over the past few hundred years.
"We were just talking about the house deeds and land deeds of these streets." Chen Zhizhi smiled and added more tea to pass to Wen Yu.
"Aunt, do you know that the current Prince of Chengping, Chen Bi, is the descendant of His Highness Zhaocheng back then, that is, Aunt Chen Chuo and Uncle Shuangcheng."
Prince Chengping sank the jade.
Wen Yu silently recited the name, recalling the elegance of her elder sister Chen Chuo and her elder brother Shuang Cheng, and seemed to be able to catch a glimpse of the appearance of King Chengping.
"Don't worry, auntie." Wen Bao patted his chest with pride. "I've also sent a letter to Sister Chenbi. I'm sure she'll be back soon."
"Aunt, guess who the new prefect of Jiangyang Prefecture is?" Wen Liangyi babbled, as if afraid he'd be left with no room to speak. "I guarantee you'll be surprised if you guess."
"Wen Si, if you are stubborn..." Chen Zhizhi closed his eyes and clenched his right fist.
"No, no, no, no." Wen Liangyi dodged and shrank behind Song Zhuo, quickly begging for mercy, "Ms. Chen, calm down."
“Puff—”
Su Jianbai, who had been silent for a long time, finally understood the current situation. He originally did not want to disturb this grand meeting of relatives and friends, but when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Ms. Chen?"
He didn't even know that Chen Xiaodao had such a little skill that some people called her a female knight?
But although he was smiling, a strange feeling arose in his heart for no reason, driving him to keep looking at the so-called Wen Si.
"Su Jianbai--" Chen Zhizhi's eyes were fierce, too lazy to argue with him, so he just warned him with gritted teeth.
On the contrary, Wen Liangyi realized something was wrong when he heard Chen Zhizhi's words, and kindly pulled Su Jianbai aside.
Watching the two of them pulling away, Chen Zhizhi glared at them unhappily before turning back to Wen Yu and saying, "Don't mind it, Auntie. Wen Si always talks so irrelevantly."
"The current prefect is called Jia Tingxi." Wen Heng looked at Wen Liangyi, then at Zhizhi, and explained with a smile.
"You may not recognize his name, Auntie." Chen Zhizhi regained his breath and smiled again. "But do you still remember Jia Yangsheng from that day?"
Yang is born.
Wen Yu nodded, "But at that time he followed..."
"A few years later, he passed the imperial examination and returned to Jiangyang. He settled down here." Chen Zhizhi said without any special emotion.
She knew that the man Jia Yangsheng followed had some conflicts with her mother and father, but a hundred years had passed and the past was gone with the wind, so she didn't care about it.
"So that's how it is." Wen Yu understood, but didn't say much.
"And Mr. Shen from the academy." Song Zhuo held onto his fox fur coat, never taking it off even inside the house. "He later passed the imperial examination and went to work in Minghuai Prefecture. Mingde Academy was then handed over to Mr. Zhou to manage."
"Uncle Shen's descendant, Zhao Qiying, is about the same age as Wen Bao." Chen Zhizhi raised his head and gestured in Wen Liangyi's direction. "Both of them are studying in the Wen family's school."
"Hey—" Wen Liangyi stretched his neck to look over here, not caring about his new friend Su Jianbai, "I heard everything!"
As he spoke, Wen Liangyi left Su Jianbai and trotted back until he stopped in front of Wen Yu.
"And my second uncle!"
"Second uncle?"
Wen Yu looked at Wen Liangyi steadily. She couldn't believe that the offspring of the brilliant Wen Yanli and the well-read Zhou Lehui would be someone like Wen Liangyi who had a lively and... bouncing personality.
But unexpectedly, everyone who was talking so much just now suddenly fell silent.
Chen Zhizhi hesitated about how to start.
In the past three hundred years, she had never found out about her aunt's whereabouts. If she hadn't met her today, she didn't know how long she would have stayed there.
But when it came to bringing up what happened back then, she really didn't know where to start.
Instead, Wen Liangyi rolled his eyes and said it directly.
"My second uncle—Wen Yanzi!"
Yanzi.
Wen Yu naturally recognized Yan Zi, but she had asked Huang to send Yan Zi to Cangling Immortal Mountain...
His eyes turned, and he saw that Wen Liangyi's expression was pure and didn't seem fake, so Wen Yu became really curious.
According to seniority, Yan Zi shouldn't be Wen Liangyi's second uncle no matter what. This is...
"After my aunt left Jiangyang, some secrets that were no longer secrets became public."
A secret that is not a secret.
Wen Yu frowned, she seemed to know what Wen Liangyi was talking about, probably referring to her ascension at that time.
Even if others don't know about this, I believe that those who are present... Xiyan and others must know about it.
In this case, it is not surprising that the Wen family would know about it.
But... after Xi Yan finds out, will he blame her...
Wen Yu remained silent.
Wen Liangyi lowered his voice, which was unusual for him, and answered Wen Yu respectfully, "Ancestors Wen Yanli and Zhou Lehui recognized Wen Yanzi, but her identity is special..."
When saying this, Wen Liangyi couldn't help but glance at Wen Yu.
In the past, I had only seen my second uncle and Zhizhi, who looked young and had high cultivation. Now I have met my aunt, who is the third one.
Although he had anticipated this, when he actually arrived in front of his aunt and saw her with his own eyes, he was still amazed at her appearance which was exactly the same as in the portrait.
To remain young forever is to live forever.
"Therefore, every generation of the Wen family followed their ancestral teachings and treated Wen Yanzi as the young master of the family."
No matter how many brothers there are in the family, they all have to leave a name for Wen Yanzi in the family tree so that he can travel in Jiangyang, or to explain his immortality and unchanged appearance.
"In my generation, my father had no other siblings, so he became my second uncle."
Wen Liangyi breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he and his three brothers had been taught since childhood that if they really met their aunt one day, they should explain the matter of their second uncle to her.
But although he always kept it in mind, he never thought that he would be so lucky as to meet his aunt. After all, his grandfather had never seen her even in his whole life.
"But Second Uncle has been elusive, and hasn't returned to Jiangyang in years." Wen Liangyi pursed his lips, looking rather helpless. "We've always claimed to the public that he's traveling and his return date is uncertain."
"I'm afraid my aunt and second uncle won't be able to meet tonight." Wen Liangyi straightened his lips and shook his head helplessly.
After these words were spoken, Wen Heng and Song Zhuo looked at each other in silence.
It was also their fault for not thinking things through. Today, one person or another was absent, leaving only her, Xiaobao, Xiaozhuo, Liangyi and Zhizhi. It would be rude to meet their aunt.
Wen Heng's cheeks flushed and he exchanged glances with Chen Zhizhi.
Chen Zhizhi quickly understood what was going on, looked around, and hurriedly added some hot tea for Wen Yu.
Her aunt didn't seem to mind what happened that year, so she felt relieved.
Wen Yu's eyes flashed, and tiny dots of light flashed in the corners of her eyes. Unlike everyone else who sighed and lamented, she shook her head helplessly.
"I don't think so."
Wen Yu raised her sleeve and picked up the water chestnut-shaped cup, sniffing the tea fragrance in it, but she was not in a hurry to drink it. Instead, she slowly looked at the person beside her.
"What do you think, Yu Chang?"
