The golden finger I take is not the same

Chapter 159 Yu Tingbai

Standing outside the door with his things in his hand, Miao Bei looked inside and didn't go in. The prince never wanted others to see this, but today he was going to his wife's place, which was a bit unexpected. Ordinary ladies don't allow the prince to go there, old man This time, I let the son pass by, I'm afraid it's because of the intention of asking my wife to persuade me.

Hearing the noise inside, when it was almost done, Miao Bei entered the room with his things, put them on the table, cleaned up the dishes, and handed them to the servants outside.

"Go, go over." Huo Kaiji wiped his mouth, straightened his clothes, straightened his hair, and led Miao Bei straight to the east courtyard.

"There are fewer and fewer people in this mansion. You said what will happen after we leave?"

Looking at the servants working in the courtyard, most of them are men, and they always have some flaws on their bodies. They are all good fighters in the Huo family's army who fought against the enemy in the past. After being injured, they can no longer join the army, so they were taken into the mansion by the Huo family to do some work .

"There will always be newcomers." Miao Bei rarely said a few more words. He stayed in the Huo family since he was a child, and his feelings for this are indescribable.

He accompanied Huo Kaiji from his childhood to the present, watched him experience the loss of his father, experienced the siege and interception of the big families, watched him change from a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses to a cynical, unscrupulous man, during this process The pain, only he himself knows, he is just watching and cannot replace half of it.

"Yes, there will always be newcomers." Huo Kaiji sighed, looking at the scenery in the mansion, somewhat uncomfortable.

When he got to the east courtyard, Huo Kaiji didn't dare to push the door open when he saw the tightly closed courtyard door.

Miao Bei stood beside him, waiting silently without speaking. The prince still needs to figure out these things himself, and no one else can replace them.

The original door in front of him has lost a lot of color now, so mottled that the original background color cannot be seen, Huo Kaiji slowly stretched out his hand, and put it lightly on the door, he only needed a little force to push it open.

"Squeak-"

Huo Kaiji raised his head in a daze, looking at the courtyard door he had opened.

"Mother Yun... are you going out..."

Seeing that he was serving his mother, Huo Kaiji pulled the corners of his mouth and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

It seemed that he realized it, and he hurriedly returned to his expressionless face, except for a trace of panic in his eyes.

"The son is here, Madam ordered me to wait for you here early, come in quickly, the weather is cold and dew heavy." Mother Yun opened the courtyard door wide, looking at Huo Kaiji with very gentle eyes and tenderness on her face laugh.

"Is mother okay?" He asked dryly, since he hadn't seen her for a long time, he didn't know what to say.

"Okay, madam is paying respects to the Buddha, and this old servant is taking the son there." Mother Yun waited for the two of them to enter the courtyard, then closed the courtyard door, and led the two of them inside as she spoke.

He glanced at Huo Kaiji from time to time, he also grew up by himself, and now he grows better year by year, looking at him is very gratifying.

Miao Bei followed behind, glancing at the two of them from time to time. Mother Yun had been by Madam's side for a long time, she was just as gentle as before, and she was afraid of speaking too harshly.

Huo Kaiji looked at the room in front of him, feeling more and more panicked, unable to tell what it was like.

"Here, you go in, Madam is waiting inside, Miao Bei, right? Just wait outside with me." Mother Yun made the gentle arrangement, but she couldn't refuse what she said.

Huo Kaiji nodded, opened the door curtain and walked in. There were a lot of white gauze hanging inside, shaking slightly as the door was opened.

Looking around, there is a woman kneeling on the futon under the Buddha statue, with her hands folded, facing the Buddha statue and praying with her eyes closed.

As if hearing footsteps, the woman put her hands down, turned her head slightly, and looked at the person coming.

"You're here." The woman looked at him and was slightly taken aback. He looked so much like the person in her memory, as if he was still alive.

Huo Kaiji knelt beside her, looked at her sideways, "I have seen my mother."

The woman turned around and slowly touched his face with her hand, "You and your father really look alike. He was like you when he was young, but you are not him."

Huo Kaiji looked at her, feeling a little sad for some reason in his heart.

"You haven't seen me for a long time." He tried hard not to let out any bad emotions. He hadn't seen her for so long that he almost forgot her appearance.

"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time, how about spending more time with mother today?" Huo's mother looked at him with a trace of moisture in her eyes.

"Okay." Nodded, he missed her very much.

"I heard that your grandmother found a good girl for you? But you are not willing, can you tell your mother why?" After Huo Yingzong died, she was sad for a long time, and finally chose such a path. Solitude and peace.

"Mother knows that the son of the Huo family dedicated his life to Dongyun. The grandfather did the same, the father did the same, and the child did the same. After the father left, the mother was sad for a long time, and the child did not want another poor person in the world." Huo Kaiji said these words At that time, I didn't dare to look up at her, for fear of causing her sad memories, but I couldn't explain clearly if I didn't say it.

Huo's mother sighed in her heart. She didn't understand his thoughts. The child she gave birth to didn't grow up with him. It was her dereliction of duty as a mother. what to say to him.

"Then, is your lifelong event decided like this?" Huo Mu asked again.

"Mother, I don't know when my child will go to the battlefield, how can I marry a good girl from someone else's family?" Huo Kaiji is still obsessed with this, he can't and doesn't want to, let there be another Yu Tingbai in this world.

Huo's mother knew that this was a knot in his heart, so she could only continue to talk to him in another direction to persuade him.

"You and her like each other? Do you know what liking means? If she is willing, how would you say it? Push her into someone else's arms? Can you bear it?"

Mother Huo asked a series of questions, which made him pause for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

"I..." He opened his mouth and spat out a syllable. Huo Kaiji couldn't say the rest of the words, because he didn't ask, and he never even revealed that he was interested in her.

"You never said anything, how do you know she doesn't want to?" Huo's mother didn't know what was going on when she heard this. This silly child obviously never told that girl, but after thinking about it carefully, it was true in her heart It's uncomfortable, she hasn't cared about him for many years, and it's because of her that he has so many scruples in his heart.

However, the future life still needs him to walk by himself, no matter how he does it, no matter how much he persuades him, he still can't figure it out if he can't figure it out.

"Mother, I can't afford it..." Huo Kaiji lowered his head, he still stubbornly didn't want to do this matter.
