Chapter 422: A Long Reunion (Part 1)

Sparrow said: "Lu Weilin returned to China to participate in the War of Resistance Against Japan. In the year when the War of Resistance Against Japan was victorious, he died in a frontal encounter with the Japanese army. Arnold also returned to Europe and joined the Royal Air Force again. Because of his heroic combat achievements, he later became a combat hero. After the war, he married Martha, quit drinking, and chose to enter politics. He was the mayor of a small British city. When Xiangjiang returned in 1997, we met in Xiangjiang, and he also died that year."

Luo Lie nodded.

Sparrow said: "The blind couple went to Nanyang. After Lu Weilin returned to China to participate in the war, the business in Nanyang was taken care of by their husband and wife. After Lu Weilin died in battle, Baihui committed suicide and committed suicide. Their children were raised by blind men. The blind men's business was very big, and they finally became Datuk. Although he did not participate in the war directly, he also actively sought funds overseas. He can be regarded as a patriotic businessman who left his name in history. After the founding of New China, the couple also actively donated money. Now there are several universities in China that they donated to build."

Luo Lie smiled and said, "He is so stingy, but he will become so generous. If I hadn't heard you say, I wouldn't believe it."

Sparrow said: "I also met them and his wife in the early days of reform and opening up. At that time, I went to Nanyang as a visiting scholar. They also treated me warmly. Their and Lu Weilin and his wife's children were both promising, most of them were doing business and doing business in Southeast Asia. Lu Weilin had a grandson named Lu Jianyang, who is now working in the National Academy of Sciences. In the late 1980s, the blind couple died one after another."

Luo Lie said: "Where is Brother Zhang?"

Sparrow said: "The couple and your sister and brother-in-law have been helping to manage your family's business in China, but the situation has been turbulent. Ye Qinghong left Huangpu with her children after you did not return. She should have foresaw the next war and took her children to escape the war. Therefore, the domestic business has always been managed by Brother Zhang and others. After decades of ups and downs, they finally survived the founding of the country. However, after Hai Mingzhu's life experience was reported by anyone, she should have been sentenced to death. After Zhang Changgong got the news, he took her away, and there was no news about him again."

Luo Lie felt sad, and his fate was even more bumpy than that of the other people.

Sparrow said: "Your sister and brother-in-law both worked in the government later. Although they had experienced some hardships, they were pretty good in the end. Your sister later became a teacher and your brother-in-law became a leader in the enterprise. They had never had children. This is their biggest regret in their life. In the 1990s, they passed away one after another. I remember when I visited your sister, she grabbed my hand and said, "Let me live well." She said, as long as one of us is still alive, we will have to wait for you to come back. You have been walking for so long, and you may have forgotten the way home. If no one waits for you, you will... you will never find a home again..." At this point, Sparrow's eyes turned red again.

Luo Lie's nose was sore and he had the urge to cry. He finally controlled his tears and said softly: "For so many years, have you never had any news about Qinghong?"

Sparrow said: "I know she has been back, but she has not met any of us. Maybe she doesn't want to see us and think of sad things. The final news should be that your daughter is getting married."

Luo Lie said in surprise: "Marry?"

The sparrow nodded and said, "Your daughter Xiao Caihong and Ren Tianjun's son Ren Yuqing got married. When they were newly married, they went back to Huangpu to pay homage to their elders. Ye Qinghong did not come with him. Cheng Yufei met them. The news at that time was that Ye Qinghong had been waiting for you. She firmly believed that you would come back. Xiao Caihong said that everything was fine, but because she had instructed her, she did not disclose the mailing address. Soon after, the civil war broke out and the contact was completely cut off." She shook her head and said, "But with Ye Qinghong's ability, they should live a good life. You don't have to worry. Xiao Caihong is very beautiful, and Ren Yuqing is also handsome and handsome. "

Luo Lie smiled bitterly and said, "I, the father-in-law, have never seen my son-in-law."

Sparrow said: "Why haven't you seen him before? Didn't you see him when you were a child? By the way, I forgot to say Ren Tianjun, Ren Tianjun had a strange disease shortly after you left, and suddenly became an old man. After his death, Ye Qinghong adopted Ren Yuqing."

Luo Lie nodded. It was his promise to Ren Tianjun. Thinking of the past more than a hundred years, Ye Qinghong's life should have been spent in pain and waiting. Luo Lie's eyes were on the sparrow, but in fact, the sparrows were the same.

Sparrow said: "Cheng Yufei is actually an underground party member. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she entered the public security system. Unfortunately, she died in an anti-special operation. She is my best friend..." Although so many years have passed, Sparrow still feels sad when she mentions this.

Luo Lie said: "Tell me about yourself."

Sparrow said: "I have anything to say, I..." She wanted to pass it over, but under Luo Lie's sharp gaze, she knew that she could not hide it. Even Sparrow thought she was funny. An old woman over 100 years old would feel a little nervous when facing this young man.

Sparrow said: "You have seen it all, I am even so old as a great granddaughter."

Luo Lie said: "When will I get married?"

The sparrow laughed: "No, really not, do you still remember Sean?"

Luo Lie nodded. The sparrow had the identity of a marquis, but it was later proved that she and Sean were not a real marriage.

Maque said: "I have a fear of marriage, so I have been single all the time, but later I was lonely alone. By chance, I adopted a child, Yan'er's grandfather. Now I have passed away for many years. My grandson is Ma Guoming, and he is very powerful." She looked at Luo Lie and said: "Go and take care of your appearance. She is sloppy and doesn't look like you."

Luo Lie said: "It's great to see you again!" He patted the sparrow's hands. The delicate and round hands that used to be had now become dry and aging. The sparrow smiled and said: "Do you want me to cut your hair? In the past, I shave my heads."

Luo Lie smiled and said, "Okay!"

When Luo Lie went to take a shower, Sparrow picked up the phone and pressed the redial button. Soon the other party answered the phone: "Grandma, have you called the wrong time again this time?"

The sparrow spat: "In your eyes, are I, an old woman, already confused?"

"You are not confused. Being cunning is not enough to describe your wisdom."

The sparrow couldn't help laughing: "Good grandson, I want to go back to Huangpu."

"What?"

"Let your private jet come and pick me up, and you inform Lu Jianyang and let him see me at home tomorrow night."

"Grandma, Jian Yang is busy with work."

"No matter how busy you are, you have to come!" Sparrow hung up the phone.

After Ma Yan'er finished purchasing, she drove back and saw the old lady sitting outside alone. She thought Luo Lie had left, but she saw the snow mastiff still lying on the grass and basking in the sun lazily. Luo Lie was probably still at home and said curiously: "Where is him?"

The sparrow said: "I'm going to take a shower."

Ma Yan'er widened her eyes: "Take a bath, he actually took a bath here? Grandma Zu, aren't you obsessed with cleanliness? Who is he? Are you so kind to him?"

"My grandson!"

"No way? Do you have such a young grandson?"

Sparrow said: "To you, am I very old?"

Luo Lie, who shaved off his beard and cut his hair, changed into a shirt and suit, and his whole body was completely refreshed inside and out. That night, accompanied by Sparrows, he boarded a private plane to Huangpu. Luo Lie had an impression of the plane in his memory, but this was the first time he took such a modern means of transportation. In the current era, it can surround the whole world in one day. Listening to the introduction of Sparrows, the fastest plane can fly from Huangpu to San Francisco in three hours.

The sparrow did not let Ma Yan'er walk with her, and she didn't want too many people to know Luo Lie's secret.

After the plane took off, the sparrow called two glasses of red wine, and she said to Luo Lie: "In an hour and a half, we will be able to arrive in Huangpu."

Luo Lie nodded: "Huangpu should have changed a lot, right?"

Sparrow said: "You probably don't recognize it, but some buildings are still there and have become national key protected cultural relics."

Luo Lie took a sip of red wine.

Sparrow said: "Is there anything I can help you?"

Luo Lie put down his wine glass, took a deep breath and said, "I promised Qinghong that I want to go back."

The sparrow was not surprised by his words. It was never Luo Lie's style to be content with the status quo. She whispered: "Do you know that if you want to go back to the past and countercurrent time, you must pass through time, and it only exists in theory at present."

Luo Lie shook his head and said, "It's not just a theory. As far as I know, someone is currently studying the equipment for time shuttles, and physical objects will be made in two years."

The sparrow looked at Luo Lie in surprise: "It seems that you have hidden a lot of things from me."

Luo Liedao: "There is nothing to do."

The sparrow sighed and said, "You, you never really believed me."

Luo Lie laughed: "You have prejudice against me."

Sparrow said: "No!"

Luo Lie said: "You told Ma Yan'er that I am your grandson?"

The sparrow couldn't help laughing: "What should I say then? Should I tell her that you are my friend and my elder brother?"

Luo Lie smiled and said, "It was."

Sparrow said: "Who would believe you will have such an old sister."

Luo Lie said: "In my heart, you always look like the past."

The sparrow said, "If I were one hundred years younger, I might still believe it, but now..." She shook her head and said, "Give your sweet words to deceive the little girl." She suddenly remembered something and pointed to Luo Lie's nose and said, "I warn you not to attack my great-granddaughter."

Luo Lie was really amused and crying: "Don't worry, I have a wife and children."

Sparrow said: "Yes, you have a wife and children, not like me alone. Luo Lie, I don't understand one thing, why do you never like me?"
