A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 221 Cousin
"Xinyu, sit down first, the house is messy, don't dislike me, I'm a lonely old man, I can't clean up the house, I'll get you something."

In fact, the old man's house is not chaotic, and there is nothing valuable in the house, but it is too simple, and there are many photos hanging on the wall.

Xinyu didn't sit down, but looked at the photos on the wall, some of which should have been taken in his hometown.

"Xinyu, come, take this—"

Before Xinyu could finish reading it, Mr. Hong brought the book over, and it was quite old when Xinyu saw it.

Mr. Hong explained to Xinyu: "I copied this by myself. The words and paper handed down before are not good enough. I will practice hard in the future and pass on the boxing skills of our Hong family. Grandpa Hong is here to ask is you--"

After finishing speaking, Hong Wantang couldn't help but want to cry. He didn't expect that his generation would wither, let alone that the Hong family's boxing techniques could not be passed on. He didn't want the painstaking efforts of his ancestors to be in the hands of his generation. It's ruined, just in front of him, the little girl is practicing their boxing, which can be regarded as fulfilling his wish.

Xinyu knelt on the ground with a plop, and raised her hands above her head to take over Hong Lao's inner strength method.

"Grandpa Hong, don't worry, I will definitely pass on the Hong family's boxing techniques."

The old man wiped away his tears and patted Xinyu on the shoulder: "My good boy, it is fate that we meet each other, get up—"

Xinyu stood up, glanced at the photos on the wall: "Grandpa Hong, is this your old father?"

Hong Wantang nodded, and Xinyu bowed again towards the photo: "Grandpa, don't worry, I, Lin Xinyu, swear here that Hongjiaquan will not be broken in my hands."

Xinyu pulled the old man to sit down: "Grandpa Hong, where is your hometown?"

Hong Wantang sighed, and told Xinyu the address of his hometown. Hearing the name, Xinyu was stunned: "We are fellow villagers, our two families are not too far away, and both of us are from Nagada in the north."

As soon as Xinyu said these words, Hong Wantang didn't understand anything. This girl didn't lie to him.

"Why are you here? Isn't it good at home?"

Xinyu smiled: "Grandpa Hong, I'm here on business this time, and I have to go back. What's your plan here, always like this?"

Hong Wantang smiled wryly: "I'm so old, what else do I have to think about, I have no idea, just live every day."

Xinyu hesitated for a moment, she was a little worried about keeping the old man here, the old man offended those people today, as for whether the black tiger gang can come here to take revenge, she is really not sure.

"Grandpa Hong, why don't you go back with me, and I'll discuss it with my family later, and I'll specify that you can't live like this."

The old man was quite stubborn, and shook his head: "I won't cause trouble for you, you must be relying on relatives and friends, right? Alas, unfortunately, if I die now, can you also take my ashes when you leave? Take it back to my hometown, I have no other ideas, I just want to bury it back to my hometown.”

Xinyu's eyes couldn't help getting wet again, and she pulled the old man to stand up: "Grandpa Hong, you two, don't be too polite. To put it bluntly, I can be regarded as a member of the Hong family. You are my elder, and I can't do anything about you in the future." No matter, pack up two clothes and follow me. I will definitely arrange your affairs for you. When you really grow old, I will definitely help you bury you in your family's ancestral grave. If you want to go back, don't worry. ? If you want to go back, follow me."

Didn't Xin Yu discuss it with the old man, now her attitude is very tough, she just can't keep the old man here, since he has been inherited by others, she will take care of him.

No matter how persistent Hong Wantang is, he can't hold back Xinyu's toughness. You said that he was a stranger in a foreign land, and he was very happy to see people from his hometown. He passed on Hongjiaquan to Xinyu. His wish has really been fulfilled. Just let the child go, and if he dies, he has to ask his relatives to help him.

Xinyu took Hong Wantang away, and when Xinyu went back, there was no one at home, so Xinyu arranged for the old man to take a good bath and change into decent clothes.

"The family is busy with work, and you can see them when they come back in the evening. Grandpa Hong, I'll let the kitchen cook some food for you. Don't be shy, just ask if you need anything."

Hong Wantang didn't know what the relationship between Xinyu's relative was, but the conditions of this family were really good. To have such a big house meant that this family was rich.

Not long after Xinyu had lunch with Hong Wantang, Li Haichao came back with Sun Dakui. Xinyu could guess the general walking posture of these two people.

"Grandpa Hai, how are you? Are you happy today? Are you happy?"

Sun Dakui grinned: "Haha, what do you think, Uncle, I am happier than marrying a wife today, haha, it's so fucking happy."

Xinyu pulled Hong Wantang over: "Grandpa Hai, I picked up a grandpa today, and that's him—Hong Wantang, my Grandpa Hong, and the boxing I practice is also Hongjiaquan."

When Li Haichao heard the name, he immediately became excited, looked him up and down, and asked in a trembling voice, "You, are you my cousin?"

Hong Wantang stared at Li Haichao with some surprise: "You, are you Haichao?"

Li Haichao nodded desperately: "Cousin, I have found you. Where have you been all these years?"

Li Haichao hugged Hong Wantang and asked while crying.

Hong Wantang hugged his cousin and cried uncontrollably. The two old men hugged each other and cried in the living room. Sun Dakui was confused. Who is this person?

Xinyu let out a long sigh. She was worried about Uncle Hai's thoughts before, but it seems that she has done a great job, and it's not bad to have two old men as companions.

"Xinyu, what is going on, who is he?"

Xinyu smiled bitterly: "I don't know the specific origin, anyway, I am the inheritor of their family's boxing, who do you think he is?"

Sun Dakui was dumbfounded: "What do you mean, isn't your kung fu taught by that third grandma?"

Xinyu nodded: "That's right, that third wife should have learned it from Grandpa Hong's own father back then, and she learned it for a while. I just learned the whole set of boxing techniques today. From my side, he is me. Even though I didn’t formally become a teacher, but Grandpa Hong passed on their family’s inner strength to me, so the two of us are related.”

Then Xinyu told Sun Dakui what happened on the street.

"Feelings, you are a good person and you will be rewarded. I said that you girl is lucky. Look, here comes—"

The two brothers finished crying, sat on the sofa and started talking about the old days, and couldn't care about Xinyu and Sun Dakui anymore.

The two of them were listening, and Sun Dakui sighed. This old man is also a poor man, almost like Uncle Hai.
