Chapter 471: The Box
"Father, what's the matter with you?"
Pu Qingyin could not help asking curiously when she saw the old man's complexion suddenly changed and his body became stiff.
In her impression, her father seemed to be like this for the first time.
"You, you are..."
The old man did not answer Pu Qingyin. Instead, he placed those hollow eyes on Ye Bei, and his voice trembled fiercely.
"Do you really know each other?"
Pu Qingyin was not stupid, on the contrary, her IQ was still very high. After hearing this, she immediately reacted, opening her mouth wide, first glanced at Ye Bei, and then at her father in shock.
"En, it's me..." Ye Bei's voice sounded.
"Good, good, good..."
The old man said three 'good' in a row. His original stiff complexion changed at this time, and the smile on his face became even better, "Originally, I thought that in this life, I would never see Sire again! These years, staying here is worth it! Qingyin, hurry and go to the street, buy the best wine, and come back with the most expensive dishes."contemporary romance
Pu Qingyin next to him felt quite awkward. There was no response from her for a long time.
"Father was not like this before. In the past, whatever dishes were available at home, he would eat whatever!" Pu Qingyin was puzzled, "Also, regarding the person I brought back this time, I am afraid that he is not 18 years old, is he? It seems that you have known each other for a long time!" When she finished speaking, she unconsciously puffed up her cheeks.
"Since I let you go, just go, what are you standing there for? Move faster." However, the old man didn't give any explanation at all, but he shouted in a low voice.
"Father, it seems that you have always disrespected the guests I brought, right? Didn't you always scare others away with a cold face before?" Pu Qingyin's voiced out a bit dissatisfiedly.
But the old man ignored her as he put his empty gaze on Ye Bei, and at the same time worked hard to restore calm to his body.
"Sir, after all these years, you have finally come. I have been waiting for you for too long!" The old man said, "Come in, the room may have changed a lot from before, but the general layout is still the same."
Pu Qingyin frowned, and the doubts in her heart continued to increase.
"Forget it, I already brought them. Let's go in first..."
However, Ye Bei glanced at Pu Qingyin, then put his eyes on the old man, the corners of his mouth moved a little, and he said this sentence softly.
Then he walked quietly in the direction of the wooden door.
"Sir, how embarrassed it is! Since you have not been here for a long time, it would be too shabby if you serve some vegetable leaves..." The old man waved his hand again and again.
Ye Bei was very casual, "Pu Donghuang, when did you start paying attention to those polite manners?"
"Ah?"
The old man was a little startled.
Then, an extremely honest smile appeared on his face, "Hahaha, yes, I have been living in this worldly life for these years, and I have been contaminated without knowing it. Sir, I am too worldly! Then let's just go with some vegetables!"
The old man turned his head as if looking at Pu Qingyin.
"Forget it, you don't need to buy groceries. You did a great job this time. You finally brought back a guest I want to see! By the way, there is a wooden box on the bedside table of my room. Go and get it for me, it'll be useful later."
"Ah?"
Pu Qingyin was confused, "Father, are you sure you don't have a fever today?" She exclaimed, "When I wanted to take a look at the wooden box before, you wouldn't show me no matter how much I begged you. You won't even let me go into your room on weekdays. Now, you want me to get the wooden box?"
"Stop saying so many nonsenses, just go." The old man frowned slightly.
"Okay! Anyway, I also want to see what's inside..." Pu Qingyin gave up. After seeing the old man's serious appearance, she could only walk toward the house angrily.
It was just that when she walked by Ye Bei this time, she couldn't help taking a deep look at him.
...
Ye Bei walked into the compound of the house and stood in it, looking slightly at the environment here.
The layout of the courtyard looked very simple at first glance.
There were only a few trees, a few broken stones, an ancient well, and some uncultivated wastelands.
However, in Ye Bei's eyes, there was a big difference here.
There were a total of nine trees in the yard, each of which was no more than two meters high. The order in which they were planted and arranged formed a circle.
The broken stones seemed to be scattered randomly in the courtyard, but each piece was carefully placed.
These simple things faintly formed an incredible aura layout.
The water from the ancient well flowed out into the tree circle, and every drop was perfectly utilized.
Those rocks were irradiated by the sun during the day and absorbed the essence of moonlight at night. Scattering in the courtyard, they provided majestic vitality to the courtyard, so that the people living here would be energetic, had a fresh mind, and it also had a life-prolonging effect.
But in the eyes of Ye Bei, everything here did not look more ordinary.
Tens of thousands of years ago, all the continents on this earth were still connected together, forming a whole land. He was in the north, but using the entire earth as a disk, the continents were smashed into countless pieces, and then they were laid out on the entire earth.
But these secrets, so far, Ye Bei hadn't told anyone.
...
"Sir, how many days can you stay here this time?"
Ye Bei stood in the courtyard motionless. Although Pu Donghuang couldn't see it, he knew everything about the situation here. He was also standing in the courtyard, and he seemed a little at a loss when he said this.
"Maybe three days, or maybe a few years!" Ye Bei answered softly.
"Great! Sir, wait a minute, I will cook immediately. Though I haven't seen you for so many years, my cooking skills have grown a lot. We will eat and talk." Pu Donghuang said.
