The old man took a deep breath, his eyes staring at Long Yu, but his thoughts didn't know where he had run early, and his voice was a little confused.
"Your grandmother's name is Zhai Yannan, is my biological sister, she is three years younger than me, because my family is very rare regardless of male or female, lively Yannan is very popular with everyone, mother jokingly called her the little swallow of the Zhai family, my sister has been delicate and lovely since she was a child, and she was born with a good appearance, when she was only fourteen years old, the person who proposed the family broke the threshold of the Zhai family, and her mother was reluctant to let Xiaoyanzi refuse, and refused all the matchmakers at a young age, and threatened that her sister should not marry if she was less than eighteen years old, hehe."
The old man in red smiled, his face was full of warm smiles, "Since I was a child, Xiaoyanzi has only one brother and only one sister, so we have a good relationship, no matter what I do, I protect her, and my sister cares about me very much, I thought that I could live a carefree life, until my sister found a reliable person, life is always changing, only a year later, I entered the Holy Courtyard under my father's arrangement." ” Long Yu moved his buttocks, the ground paved with bamboo, although there was a futon cushion, there was still a little bit of a squeak, hearing that the old man in red only entered the Holy Courtyard at the age of eighteen, or it was arranged by his elders, Long Yu couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, himself, but he could enter the Holy Courtyard at the age of sixteen, oh, no, it should be seventeen years old, he was going to the Holy Courtyard, and he was still celebrating the New Year, Long Yu muttered in his heart.
"To be honest, I'm not a hard-working person, and my talent is not as high as my sister, my sister has been a water elemental since she was a child, and originally, she should have incomparable attainments in magic, but, because she was born in the Zhai family, born in our male-dominated family, although her mother and father love her very much, but under the pressure of the family, she can't let Xiaoyanzi go to the Holy Courtyard, because, the relationship between the whole family mobilization, and the number of places to get is only one, for a family like ours, Of course, only me, the eldest son of the lineage, is the most suitable. ” Long Yu sighed, this is the helplessness of every family, no matter how talented a woman is, as long as she has an older brother or younger brother, then the focus of the entire family will be shifted to men, as for women, women are not talented is virtuous, this is the idea of every family on the mainland, and there is no way to change.
"I left that year, and after that, only Xiaoyanzi remained in this big family, who would have thought that I would never see her again."
The old man in red said sadly, his voice trembled again, and he entered this room, this is the second time Long Yu has seen this big man lose his temper, and they all say that he needs to be ruthless, this strong man who stands at the peak of the mainland, he will be like this when he mentions his sister, it is inevitable that Long Yu will have a sense of admiration, remembering the master's previous life, depending on whether the essence of the person is bad or not, it depends on whether he misses family affection, so it seems that the old man in red should be a good person.
Long Yu didn't interject knowingly, waiting for the old man in red to talk down, although he clearly knew that the little swallow in the old man's mouth was his grandmother, but Long Yu really didn't have any sense of belonging, he was originally reborn, and it took a long time for his father, mother and grandfather to accept it, and now, a grandmother jumped out suddenly, even if this grandmother has a famous brother on the mainland, but Long Yu in his heart, he has not yet been involved with this person with himself, therefore, at this time, he is very calm, It's like you're listening to a story, someone else's story.
"Alas, it's all my fault, after entering the Holy Courtyard, I didn't feel that I was competitive, and when the family was facing a catastrophe, I couldn't come back, and I was the one who was buried deep in the loess, not my sister and brother-in-law."
The old man in red sighed, his face full of regret, and he couldn't stop shaking his head.
Long Yu secretly looked around, thought about it, and asked, "Uncle, who is my grandfather?"
What Long Yu thought in his heart was that since he knew who his grandmother was, he couldn't know who his grandfather was.
"Your grandfather, what is he" The old man in red hesitated for a moment, sighed and continued: "Your grandfather, he is not from this continent, he is from the sea, his name is Shui Qingliu.
"Oh" Long Yu nodded, no wonder his mother's surname is Shui, isn't this nonsense.
When he met Xiaoyanzi, it happened to be Xiaoyanzi's eighteenth birthday, I don't know the specific situation, I only remember that day, my sister sent me a text message, saying that she met the person in her life, before, I was happy for her, but, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect Shui Qingliu's identity. ” "What's wrong with the identity of my grandfather" Although he didn't accept these two relatives in his heart, Long Yu couldn't show it, and his mouth was very slippery.
"He is from the sea, and his surname is Shui, Yu'er, can make us jealous, can't you guess" The old man in red looked at Long Yu, as if he was interested in testing him.
Long Yu tilted his head, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, so it was, "Could it be that my grandfather is from that Shuiyue Island" "Hmm" The old man in red nodded, "Because of his identity, his father and mother both tried their best to resist the contact between Xiaoyanzi and Shui Qingliu, and in the end, his father even did not hesitate to restrict Xiaoyanzi's whereabouts and did not allow her to go out of the house.
It is even more angry that he has been sick in bed for only a year, for this matter, my father even wants to remove Xiaoyanzi from his ancestral hometown, fortunately Xiaoyanzi is kind and kind, and treats people well on weekdays, and the whole clan asks for her to avoid this, but my father really can't wipe off this face, and publicly said that he broke off the father-daughter relationship with Xiaoyanzi and did not allow her to enter the Zhai family again. ” "Ah" Long Yu took a breath of cold air, half surprised and half puzzled, this old man is too ruthless, even if he is from Shuiyue Island, you can't do this, this girl, but yours.
Smashing it, smashing it, Long Yu looked at the dim light above his head, and couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy for his grandmother who dared to love and act.
This is the so-called big family, a big family that outsiders envy, with many rules, and sometimes, for the sake of face, you can even give up family affection.
"Yu'er, don't you understand what my father did, do you think he is too ruthless," the old man in red suddenly asked.
Long Yu nodded unabashedly and returned: "However, I can also understand, after all, Shuiyue Island is not a good place.
"Hehe, the children of your generation can only understand the one-sided side of Shuiyue Island from the old man's words and some miscellaneous historical records, the real Shuiyue Island, only those who have experienced that era can know what kind of place it is."
The old man in red seemed to be smiling, but Long Yu could clearly feel that the old man in red had absolutely no good feelings for this Shuiyue Island, even if his most beloved sister was married to a man from Shuiyue Island.
"Then uncle, what kind of place is Shuiyue Island" Long Yu asked curiously, he had only seen it in some miscellaneous histories, saying that this Shuiyue Island was a concentration of pirates, but there was no way to know what it was.
"Hmph, what's it, it's completely a pirate island, and it has such an elegant name, Shuiyue Island, have you ever known that the Xianglong people who died in the sea area of Shuiyue Island can fill that island evenly."
The old man in red said in a cold tone.
Long Yu didn't know in his mind how many people it would take to fill that island, but he could imagine that this island should have a blood feud with the Xianglong Empire.
"My Zhai family, from my father up, has served as a patrol inspector, for that sea area, in order to keep the territorial waters south of Xianglong, for fishermen and merchant ships, the entire four generations have all been buried in that turquoise sea, the Zhai family originally rose and died, but because of this Shuiyue Island, to my father's generation, the direct line has become the only seedling inheritance."
The old man in red almost gritted his teeth and told this old story.
"It's dead" Long Yu muttered in his heart, and suddenly felt that this situation seemed to be quite similar to his own home.
"Later, His Majesty the Emperor sympathized with the Zhai family, gave 10,000 hectares of fertile land in Yibin to the Zhai family, gave his father a title, and transferred the Zhai family out of the South China Sea, so today's Zhai family has taken root in Yibin, and our ancestral home is in the South China Sea Yutai with blue sky and clear water."
The old man in red looked away from staring at Long Yu and looked at the mural.
Long Yu looked over and saw the difference in this mural.
Blue waves and blue sky, there is a battleship on the boundless sea, the colorful flags on the battleship are fluttering, and the bold Zhai character on the flag of the Chinese army is so conspicuous at this time, a general in full uniform, standing on the bow of the ship and looking out.
As far as his eyes could see, at the end of the mural, in the mist, there was a faint city, and there should be the fish platform that the old man in red said.
"Shuiyue Island, the materials looted from that sea every year are worth more than 10 million gold coins, and the people who died in that sea area are tens of thousands, in the most rampant era of Shuiyue Island, hundreds of people die almost every day, you calculate, when will this blood account be paid off, it is precisely because of this that my father and mother are so angry, and my sister is married to Xianglong's enemy, the enemy of the family, how can this make the whole family forgive the past."
The old man in red sighed and said, but Long Yu could feel that the old man in red did not have any resistance to his sister's marriage to Shui Qingliu, and the three words of Shuiyue Island alone were full of hatred as the old man in red.
"Uncle, doesn't the empire want to do anything, this Shuiyue Island is so rampant, with the strength of our Xianglong, how can we allow Long Yu to ask puzzledly, on the entire continent, if you want to talk about military strength, there is no country that can compare with Xianglong, if you want to talk about economic strength, there is no country that can compare with Xianglong, just because Xianglong is rich in land and resources, outstanding people, such a powerful empire remembers to be here, how can this small pirate island be allowed to be so rampant
