Chapter 428 Father and daughter recognize each other
Feng County is rich in cherries, and now is the cherry season.
Meng He sat under the cherry tree, watching Meng Yuan jumping up and down picking cherries, a smile appeared on his weathered face.
An Zhiyi also likes to eat cherries.
At that time, in order to eat the freshest cherries, they would go to the cherry orchard to pick them every cherry season.
If only she were still alive...
"Master, are we still going to make cherry wine this year?" Meng Yuan asked loudly.
"Ah."
Meng He nodded.
He doesn't like eating fruit, but every time he goes to the cherry orchard, An Zhiyi picks a lot of cherries.
This kind of fruit is delicate and difficult to preserve, so An Zhiyi made cherry wine. The two of them had a great time drinking and appreciating the moon in their spare time.
Later, there was no such passionate time again.
But he still makes some cherry wine every year.
Habits are ingrained in our bones and cannot be changed.
"Master, do you want to send some to the capital?" Meng Yuan asked. "If we send them by air, they will still be fresh when they reach our homes."
"Need not."
"But Master, you are clearly still thinking about them..."
"Just watch them from a distance."
Meng He closed his eyes and put his palms together: "Amitabha!"
Meng Yuan shook his head in confusion.
You clearly care about your family, but you hide away and refuse to enter the secular world. Don't you feel regretful about such a life?
I don’t know if Brother Hui has made the life-promoting pills. Is Sister You’s illness cured?
Suddenly, there was noise and car sounds outside the cherry orchard.
Meng He opened his eyes and prepared to leave with Meng Yuan - after years of practicing as a monk, he no longer cared about worldly affairs.
When encountering problems, avoid them first.
But Meng Yuan is still young and likes to watch the fun.
He deliberately took his time cleaning up, glancing outside from time to time to see the excitement.
"Meng Yuan, how many times has your master told you? Stop gossiping." Meng He's silent voice came.
Meng Yuan had no choice but to speed up.
The master and disciple arrived outside the cherry orchard and were stunned.
Meng Hui, Chu Ciyou and Huo Tingchen stood side by side at the entrance of the cherry orchard.
Seeing Meng He, Meng Hui was extremely excited: "Dad..."
Chu Ciyou felt a little overwhelmed when he met his biological father for the first time.
I don’t know whether I should go forward or recognize him.
"Go!" Huo Tingchen encouraged softly.
If Chu Ciyou's illness is really inherited from An Zhiyi, let's put an end to it today.
As a father, Meng He has the responsibility and obligation to treat Xiaoyou!
"Dad, I finally found you." Meng Hui was afraid that Meng He would run away, so he held his hand tightly.
Meng He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again he had regained his composure.
He looked at Meng Yuan.
"I didn't leak it!" Meng Yuan hurriedly distanced himself from the matter.
"I found it myself." said Meng Hui.
Meng He took a deep breath and asked, "I am already a monk..."
"Here are the Shengxi Pills." Meng Hui took out the medicine bottle. "Tell me, can it cure Xiaoyou? Can pregnant women take it? Are there any side effects?"
Chu Ci was worried and stunned.
What is the life-promoting pill? She doesn't know anything about it!
"Yes, it can be cured." Meng He finally turned his gaze to his daughter.
In fact, he knew she was his daughter without going through any sensational steps of recognition.
Xiaoyou looks very much like An Zhiyi.
Every time he saw her as an adult, he seemed to think he was seeing the young An Zhiyi again.
“I, I…” Chu Ciyou rubbed his hands nervously.
Huo Tingchen teased: "where is your temper? You were so mean to me at home, but now you are as cowardly as a quail."
Chu Ciyou stared at him in embarrassment: "You're still talking? You don't even know the occasion!"
"What are you afraid of? My father-in-law knows better than anyone else." Huo Tingchen looked at Meng He, "Father-in-law, don't you think so?"
"Yes."
Meng He nodded, left Meng Hui and walked over: "Xiao You, I'm your dad."
"Dad..." Chu Ciyou choked.
After so many years, she finally reunited with her biological father!
"Xiaoyou, Dad is sorry for you..." Meng He sighed, "Tingchen has seen me, but I don't have the courage to see you."
"He told me..." Chu Ciyou was embarrassed, not at all his usual eloquence.
Meng He looked at his daughter with pity: "There is another reason why I haven't shown up. Gui Jing."
"I understand, I understand."
Chu Ciyou nodded without any extra words.
Meng He was full of regrets and apologies, but his daughter didn't seem to need them.
He didn't know what to say.
The father and daughter looked at each other, their hearts pounding but unable to express themselves.
Or maybe, there is no need to express it.
They had known of each other's existence for a long time, and they felt relieved whether they saw each other or not.
"Dad, you picked so many cherries?" Meng Hui asked, "Xiaoyou loves eating cherries as much as my mom does."
"Then take some back." Meng He instructed Meng Yuan to load all the cherries into the Huo family's car.
There were several large baskets, and it looked like the amount was not something that could be finished.
Huo Tingchen quickly stopped him: "We can just take a little back. We can't finish too much."
"Okay, I'll send it to you after I make some cherry wine," said Meng He.
Meng Hui was surprised: "Dad, you can also make wine?"
"I learned it from your mother." Meng He smiled.
With my children right in front of me, it wasn't so painful to talk about my deceased wife.
If he wasn't afraid of Gui Jing's pestering him, he would have wanted to go home with them.
"My mother is very powerful, isn't she?" Chu Ciyou asked in a low voice.
Meng He looked proud: "Of course! Zhiyi is the most powerful girl in the capital."
Chu Ciyou smiled and swallowed his tears while looking up at the sky.
Mom, did you see it in heaven? Dad is praising you!
If it weren't for Gui Jing, you would be the happiest couple in the world.
"Father-in-law, let's move over and talk." Huo Tingchen said.
Meng He nodded.
Chu Ciyou was puzzled. Didn’t he bring her here to meet him today?
Meng Hui came over and said, "Xiaoyou, let's go to the cherry orchard."
"They?" Chu Ci felt uneasy.
"It's about Shenlong, and it's slightly related to the Meng family. Let them talk about it. We don't have to interfere." Meng Hui smiled gently.
Meng Yuan also said: "Sister You, I know which tree has the sweetest cherries. I'll take you there."
"All right!"
Chu Ci was worried and looked back every three steps.
Huo Tingchen resigned a long time ago, why did Shenlong still assign him tasks?
Besides, Meng Hui is the head of the family, so the dragon should look for Meng Hui...
"Xiaoyou, when is the due date?"
Meng Hui deliberately interrupted and started talking about Guixiu and Meng Ya after asking.
Successfully diverted Chu Ciyou's attention.
Huo Tingchen was afraid that there were ears on the other side of the wall, so he talked to Meng He in the car.
Meng He held the Shengxi Pill tightly in his hand, and he had guessed something in his mind: "What do you want to ask?"
"Father-in-law, how many of you know about the resurrection technique?" Huo Tingchen asked.
Meng He was a little unhappy: "Meng Hui told you, right?"
"Yes."
That kid, why does he leak everything?
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I'm not interested in these. I just want to protect Xiaoyou and the Meng family." Huo Tingchen said.
Meng He pondered and hesitated.
"If father-in-law doesn't want to say it, then forget it. But tell me, will Xiaoyou be like this in the future?" Huo Tingchen was more worried about this.
"No." Meng He said, "Her condition is indeed inherited from her mother. The rest pills can cure it."
"That's good."
Huo Tingchen breathed a sigh of relief.
But, I still have concerns in my heart.
"Father-in-law, this book has been read by Meng Huan. He insists that there is a resurrection technique in the world. I am very worried about the future. Father-in-law, do you have any good ideas?"
"Kill him." A fierce look flashed in Meng He's eyes.
