When the car parked in the garage and Zi Yu and Lan Mei got out of the car with Hu Xing's hand, all the maids and guards who were working in the garden stopped working. They looked at Hu Xing with surprise and disbelief. Hu Xing was also looking around at everything. The spacious courtyard and the fragrance of flowers were all so familiar, but also a little unfamiliar.
"Ah! Young Master is back, Young Master is back.”A servant shouted excitedly and ran towards Hu Xing. Tiger Star could tell at a glance that it was Dumbo.
"It's really Young Master. Young Master is back.”All of them cried out in surprise and ran over. In the year that Tiger Star had been gone, the Bai family had changed completely. Whether it was inside or outside the villa, it was cold and quiet all day long. There was no life at all.
"I'll go tell the four elders." A maid said happily and ran inside.
"There's no need. How could the four of us old men not hear such a huge commotion?”Hu Xing raised his head and looked at Grandpa Bai Yuzun who was walking over.
At this moment, the four elders walked over, their eyes filled with love. None of the four elders were Hu Xing's grandfather, but they were all his brothers. When they were young, they pursued martial arts and put aside all the important things in their lives. However, when they woke up, they had become old men with gray hair. Hu Xing's grandfather, Bai Yudian, was also the previous clan leader of the Bai Clan. After his death, his four brothers took charge of the clan. They were also the current four elders. Bai Yuzun, Bai Yurong, Bai Yumu, and Bai Yuheng. The four elders had watched Hu Xing grow up and had long treated him as their own grandson, even closer than their own grandson. It was precisely because they were all old that their greatest wish was to see their descendants slowly grow up. Therefore, the four elders 'love for Tiger Star was irreplaceable. They had killed Ah Ling because aristocratic families had always paid attention to matching families and social status. It was something that ordinary families could compare to. The marriage of the Bai family had to be considered for the future of the Bai family. It could also be said to be a political marriage. This was a power that God had deprived them of when he gave them glory and wealth.
"Grandson is back. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back!”Bai Yurong looked at Hu Xing and said. His words were filled with vicissitudes and emotions.
"Grandson, let's go back and talk." Bai Yuheng said. He turned around and walked into the villa with the rest of them.
When they arrived at the living room, the four elders slowly walked to the seats of honor. Their movements were clearly not as before."I haven't seen you for a year, and you've actually aged so quickly.”She felt terrible.
"Child, we don't ask for your forgiveness, but you have to know that everything we do is for the Bai family. From the day you were born, you were destined to not live like an ordinary person. We four elders can't watch the Bai family be destroyed by our hands. Since you're back, it's time for us to abdicate. This is what your four grandfathers have discussed before. We're old, so the Bai family should be handed over to you young people. You have the right to decide everything in the Bai family, but when it comes to important matters that affect the survival of the Bai family, we four grand elders still have the final say.”Bai Yuzun said.
"Grandpa, I know it was wrong of me to leave, but I've learned more than ever in this year. I don't object to you taking over the Bai family, but there's one thing I want you to agree to. If you don't agree, I'll refuse to take over the Bai family and withdraw from the Bai family. I'll shave my hair and become a monk, and I'll never interfere in the affairs of the world again.”Hu Xing said firmly. Every word he said shocked the four elders and Hu Xing's parents. They didn't know why their son had such a plan.
Elder Bai Yumu, who had the most irritable personality, said angrily,"Are you doing this right to the ancestors of the Bai family? Hu Xing, you better always remember that this is your duty. Your life is not yours, it belongs to the Bai family. You will never be able to escape. Cough, cough.”After Bai Yumu finished speaking, he kept coughing.
"Uncle, don't be angry. It was Xiaohu who spoke nonsense. You have to take care of your health.”Bai Long Qian Yi hurriedly persuaded.
"Yumu, don't be so agitated. Let's listen to your grandson's request first.”Bai Yuzun said calmly. Then, he said to Hu Xing,"You should always remember what your Grandpa Bai Yumu said earlier. This is your life. Tell me your request.”
"Move Ah Ling's grave back to our Bai family's cemetery. Everyone in the Bai family must acknowledge Ah Ling as my wife."”Perhaps this was the belief and persistence of love when he was young and frivolous.
"You." Bai Yumu spat out a mouthful of blood. The people around were all shocked and hurriedly helped Bai Yumu up.
"Grandson, don't you think your decision is a little overboard? Look at how angry you've made your Grandpa Bai Yumu. Hurry up and apologize to him.”Bai Yuheng said angrily to Hu Xing.
Hu Xing suddenly knelt on the ground and cried loudly with two long tears flowing down his face,""Grandpa, I am unfilial. Please believe that I love you in my heart. I don't want this to happen either. If I can't do this for Ah Ling, how can I support the Bai family as a man? If the four grandfathers can agree to this request of mine, I swear that I will listen to you in everything from now on.”
At this moment, no one spoke. They all looked at Hu Xing quietly. Was this still their grandson from a year ago? Bai Yuzun stood up and helped Hu Xing up. He sighed and said,""Xiaohu, you've really grown up. Alright, Grandpa agrees to this. Do you have any other requests?”
"Really? Thank you, Grandpa." Hu Xing looked gratefully at Grandpa Bai Yuzun.
"I will let the servants handle this matter solemnly. Grandfather has never taken back what he promised.”Bai Yuzun said. He turned around and said to Hu Xing's parents and servants,""All of you can leave. I have something to discuss with the other three elders.”
When the Tiger Stars had all retreated, Bai Yurong asked,""Second brother, are you really going to move that woman into our Bai family's tomb?”
Bai Yuzun sighed and said," After so many things, I've also thought about a lot. We're all old now. If anything happens to Little Tiger, how can we still have the face to see our ancestors?" I don't want Tiger Star to hate me for the rest of my life. We can then help our grandson succeed the throne before we die. We won't have much to do in our lives, and we can leave in peace.”Bai Yuzun smiled sadly.
"Alright, we'll do as Second Brother says.”Bai Yumu also compromised.
"Who do you think this kid looks like? Why are you so hot-tempered, hehe." Bai Yuheng laughed.
"No one is like him. Even his grandfather, our big brother Bai Yudian, is not as fierce as him.”Bai Yurong laughed loudly.
"Xiao Hu, your grandfather has promised you this. Don't make the other grandfathers angry again in the future.”Purple Feather and Blue Plum persuaded, kindly stroking Hu Xing's white hair.
"En, I understand. This is the last thing I can do for Ling. I won't give up.”Hu Xing nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Hu, why do you have the intention to marry and become a monk? You know that your four grandfathers and your father were shocked when you said that.”Purple Feather and Blue Plum said angrily.
" I'm a monk in the game. I practice martial arts in the morning and help the monks do some farm work in the afternoon. It feels pretty good." Tiger Star said in embarrassment.”
Purple Feather and Blue Plum angrily tapped Tiger Star's head and said,""You brat, if you dare to speak nonsense again in the future and become a monk, I'll die in front of you.”
"Don't. I can't bear to part with Mom." Hu Xing said happily as he hugged the purple feather blue plum. Purple Feather and Blue Plum heaved a sigh of relief and hugged their son with a smile.
In another corner of the garden, a servant girl saw Madam and Hu Xing hugging each other. She said to another servant girl beside her,"Look at how happy the mother and son look.”
The girl looked at Hu Xing with red eyes and said,""I don't know why I feel like crying when I see this.”
"Don't say it. I want to cry too. Sob, sob, it's not easy for the young master.”The maid began to cry as well.
