You are back

Chapter 21
The group of people walked around the alley from the eight-character wall of the government office. They walked to the end of the alley, then turned into a narrower alley. They walked to the end again, turned a corner, and arrived in front of a narrow, dilapidated iron-clad wooden door.

The door was too thick, so Chen Yanfeng directly kicked the door a few times with his foot, stopped, and kicked it a few more times. After a while, there was a sound of keys colliding inside, from far to near.

The door was opened from the inside, and a yellow and thin face stuck out from the door, "It's Mr. Chen. I haven't seen you for many years. Are you here... Oh, Mr. Chen, come in, please come in."

Huang Thin Face opened the door and let Chen Yanfeng in. He glanced curiously at Li Yan and Yushu who were following Chen Yanfeng.

Huang Shoulian locked the door, walked around in front of Chen Yanfeng from the side of the road, led the way, turned sideways from time to time, bowed his waist and nodded, seeming to respect Chen Yanfeng very much.

Li Yan followed behind Chen Yanfeng without hesitation, and kept looking around. This prison has deep trees and old buildings, which looks more like an ancient temple.

Huang Thin Face led Chen Yanfeng, and they arrived at the door of a small courtyard not far away. Huang Thin Face took out a key from the bunch of keys on his waist, opened the courtyard door, nodded and bowed, "Master Chen, you are all here." Here, it’s all in this courtyard, do you think?”

"You wait here, it will be fine in a while." Chen Yanfeng told Huang Shoulian, Li Yan took a step to the side, and looked into the yard from behind Chen Yanfeng.

The four circles of the yard are all the same low and rough houses. There is no verandah in front of the house. The doors and windows of the house...can't be considered complete doors and windows. Doors and windows all have the same shape, but the door and window openings are equipped with a There is a wooden railing as thick as a child's arm. Behind the railing, there are pictures posted one after another of men and women, young and old. They all still have wealth that can be seen at a glance, but their expressions are frightened, sad, and even numb. Face……

Chen Yanfeng stood at the door of the courtyard with his eyelids lowered. He stayed for a moment and then walked into the courtyard.

Yushu gently pushed Li Yan, who was staring blankly, "Miss, don't go in, let's wait outside..."

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Yan came back to his senses, hurriedly walked into the courtyard door, followed closely behind Chen Yanfeng, and waved his hands randomly, "Don't come in, don't look, you wait outside."

Yushu had already followed her without hesitation. In such a situation, how could she let the eldest daughter of her family come in alone.

Chen Yanfeng went straight to the door of the first room on the east side. In this room, there was only one old man in his fifties, plump and wealthy, who looked neat and clean. This should be Zhou Hao.

When Zhou Hao saw Chen Yanfeng, the flesh on his cheeks twitched in excitement. He grabbed the railing with both hands, dragged his disabled legs, and dragged himself close to the railing.

"Sir! Thank you so much, sir... Sir..." Zhou Hao grasped the railing tightly with both hands, until veins popped out on the back of his hands. He looked up at Chen Yanfeng, bumping his head against the railing, sobbing.

Li Yan subconsciously leaned closer to Chen Yanfeng, and looked pitifully at Zhou Hao, who was in tears and couldn't contain his excitement. He kept banging his head against the railing and was in agony, "Sir, I was wrong, I was wrong." Yes! Sir, I...I...sir handed over the letter, I shouldn't...regret! Sir...I just want to finish this job, so...just...I...sir...save me!"

Zhou Hao cried so hard that he could not speak a sentence.

"Father!" In the room next to Zhou Hao, a hand stretched out from the railing, and a handsome young man in his 30s and [-]s had a vague embarrassment in his voice, "Father, don't do this. That's it, Dad."

Chen Yanfeng's eyes shifted from Zhou Hao to the young man, Li Yan subconsciously reached out and grabbed Chen Yanfeng's sleeve, and looked at the young man.

"Thank you for taking this trip, sir. You have been helping the Zhou family. I have heard my dad say it several times. Mr. Zhou is very grateful for your kindness. Today's disaster is that Zhou didn't know the time and didn't listen. Kind words..."

The young man's voice was choked, he paused, and then continued: "Wen knows this is an extravagant wish...but, these..."

Zhou Wen looked around, tears streaming down his face, "I beg you, sir, for the sake of our ancestors... to preserve a bloodline for the Zhou Dynasty because of our old friendship with our ancestors."

Li Yan couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

"Come here." Chen Yanfeng seemed to feel Li Yan's intolerance, stretched his hand back, pulled Li Yan in front of him, and protected him, then ordered him to carry the food box, and stood in the middle of the courtyard to watch his eyes, nose, nose and heart, but The two guys who kept trembling said, "One table will be served here, and the other table will be divided."

The two guys hurried forward, and stuffed one copy of the rice noodles they had brought in front of Zhou Hao through the small hole on the railing, and handed out the other copy to each room.

"Sir..." Zhou Wen let out a low cry in despair, and slumped to the ground.

This desperate cry made Li Yan burst into tears.

Chen Yanfeng sighed so softly that he could hardly hear him, raised his hand to pat Li Yan's shoulder, and sighed again, "You... well, I can only take one away."

"Sir, sir!" Zhou Hao was stunned, threw himself on the railing, and stretched out his hands eagerly and eagerly towards Chen Yanfeng.

Zhou Wen's whole body stiffened nervously, and he quickly glanced at his father, holding the railing tightly with both hands, staring at Chen Yanfeng with his eyes, even trembling slightly because of nervousness.

Chen Yanfeng fixed his eyes on Zhou Hao, looked at him for a while, then turned to look at Zhou Wen, "Who is coming with me?"

Zhou Wen was stunned for a moment, and his face immediately flushed with excitement, "Sir...Thank you, sir..."

Zhou Wen's eyes fixedly fell on the two children diagonally opposite, one large and one small, and the young woman holding an even smaller baby next to the two children. The young woman was trembling all over, looking at Zhou Wen with great desire, holding the baby in one hand. The baby, pushing the two children with the other hand, pushed against the railing in a panic, "Call Dad! Quick! Call Dad!"

Zhou Wen stared blankly for a moment, then abruptly looked away, and looked directly at Chen Yanfeng, "Mister, please take the third brother away, our brothers, our family, only the third brother...he is good at it."

"Brother!" With a startled cry from the room next to him, a young man about 20 years old threw himself on the railing, "Brother, let's go! Brother, you are..."

"Let's go." Chen Yanfeng gently pushed Li Yan out, as if talking to Li Yan or to the young man.

Huang Slimface shuffled forward to open the railing.

"Brother, I won't leave! If you don't leave, let Brother Yue..."

"A Rui, it's not easy to live alone. Brother Yue is too young. In the future... don't think too much, you live on first, live well, let's go, sir has already left, let's go." Zhou Wen rushed to Zhou Rui through the railing. waving.

Huang Slimian'er had already opened the cell door in front of Zhou Rui, turned sideways and waved at him, and Zhou Rui burst into tears.
