"We don't know what's wrong recently. Once we close our eyes, it's all about the past!"

The old man drank a little wine, picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

"After a while, our little brother ran around the mountains and fields with barefoot, catching loaches on the river tide and birds on the trees, and digging rat nests behind him to pick up food."

"After a while, I worked as a monk in the temple again, washing and wiping the Buddha statues every day. Any senior brother who comes here can scold you and instruct you a few times."

"Oh, the dream is messy, and when we wake up, our heads are buzzing. The people and the scenery in the dream are messy. Many people have forgotten for decades, but it's really true in the dream."

"A lot of things that we have forgotten are constantly coming out."

"The wild cherry trees in the back mountain, the osmanthus flowers in the temple..."

The old man said in a nagging manner, and Zhu Yunyu listened silently beside him.

It’s not that people like memories when they get old, but that memories will surge out from the depths of their hearts when they get old, reminding people of the roads they have walked, the people they have seen, what they have said, and what they have done in this life.

You will repeat the good and bad things about human nature and tell people that you have perfection and regrets in your life, some things that are sorry for others, and some behaviors that are unwilling to others.

"Wow!" The old man took a heavy sip of wine, reached out his big hand and poured the last bit from the warm wine pot into the cup, and then looked at the slightly rippling liquid inside.

"Big grandson!"

"Grandson is here!"

The old man smiled and said, "You said we, are you... damn it?"

Zhu Yunxiu was stunned and immediately shook his head and said, "Grandpa Emperor, where did you say? You are always tough..."

"No need to say it sounds nice!" The old man waved his hand and smiled, "I heard from the old man that if a person is about to blow up the light and remove wax, his mind will be in the past all day!"

"Actually, we are just happy, and there is nothing strange about it. Life is rare since the age of seventy, and we never thought we could live so long. We have all the wealth and power in the world. Even if we die, we will not be afraid of seeing the King of Hell!"

"At such an old age, you can still walk or run. You don't have to wait by the bed to take care of your shit and pee, drink wine and eat meat, which is not easy."

"We are not afraid of death. We just kick our legs and close our eyes?"

"But, for some reason, we are so fucked, just like..." The old man frowned and thought, "It's like, there's something else I can't understand and didn't do it?"

In short, this year is the winter of the 30th year of Hongwu, and the old man's death was in May of the 31st year of Hongwu.

This is how to calculate...

I dare not count! I dare not count!

The old man's words clearly did not fluctuate at all, but in Zhu Yun's heart, he felt so sad and sad.

He is now the emperor and has the greatest power in the world. He can deprive countless people of their lives with a command. However, in the face of true birth, old age, sickness and death, he is so powerless and pale.

"Don't think about it!" Zhu Yunxiu gave the old man a bowl of soup and said with a smile, "Didn't you always say it before? Try to live another ten years, and watch Liujin get married and have children."

"Think about it, at that time, when it comes to dinner, you are surrounded by generations, pouring wine for you, and that one is filling you with food. The people who are busy with the kitchen are all your granddaughter-in-law, great-grandson-in-law, and you hold another small one in your arms..."

"Hehe, that's beautiful!" The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled, then looked at Liujin, "Just think about it, the days used to be slow, now the time is fast, and this day will not be waiting for us, so we can't catch up with you."

After saying that, the old man raised his hand and drank half a glass of wine.

Then he opened his mouth and bit the duck's legs in the bowl.

He moves very slowly, but he chews very hard.

Zhu Yunxiu felt aching in his heart, and he was silent for a moment and said softly, "Grandpa Emperor, your birthday is coming soon!"

"Um!" the old man agreed vaguely, "If you don't say it, we'll forget it."

"My grandson has already asked the people from the Imperial Heavenly Prison to forget about their days. This year is the leap month of October, so your birthday is later than in previous years!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled.

The old man looked up, "Your grandma said, the year we were born was also a leap month." As he said that, he smiled, "The aunt in the village said that people born in leap month are blessed and promising!"

"The grandson has arranged this year's birthday for you!" Zhu Yunxiu didn't want to tell the old man in advance, but now he feels that if the old man knew about it earlier and gave him hope, he might be more happy.

"It's just a birthday to do it. Oh, it won't matter if you can't live it. Don't spend a lot of money in a vain way." The old man put down his bowl, "I know you are filial, and filial piety is not about this."

"When you are alive, you can get over ten thousand incense sticks in front of the grave. It's like we, the most popular grave for your grandparents, but what's the use? They haven't lived a good life for half a day!"

As he said that, he sighed again, "My son's birthday, mother's bitter day. People in the world say that men are good, and they can support their family lineage. But when a man grows up, he forgets his parents."

"When filial piety is said to be filial, you can do good work on the surface. People are seeking fame in front of others, but they don't care about the growth of dead grass on the tomb."

"Since the sixth year of Hongwu, Li Shanchang and Wu Liang were ordered to build Fengyang Zhongdu. At that time, the ministers all opposed it, so we were stubborn and insisted on cultivating Zhongdu to be as beautiful as Yingtian Mansion."

"It consumes people's efforts and material resources, but in the end, we can only understand it when we reach this age. What's the use? No matter how beautiful the city is, it's just a decoration. It's better to say that it's built for our parents and brothers, it's better to say that it's built for us for the sake of face."

"It's us, we're for living people to see!"

Speaking of this, the old man reached out to touch the wine pot again, but found that it was empty inside.

"Where is the wine?" the old man turned his head and asked.

Park Bushen lowered his head, "Old man, you have arrived today..."

"You old guy!" the old man cursed, "It's your turn to drink some wine? Go and take it!"

Park Bucheng didn't dare to move, and looked at Zhu Yunxiu with help.

"What? Before we closed our eyes, you just cursed with your new master?" the old man cursed, "Believe it or not, we are now..."

"Go and get some more!" Zhu Yunxiu spoke, comforting the old man and laughed, "Grandpa Emperor, I can't drink the last glass!"

"How many days can we drink? You still say filial, so we won't let us enjoy our lives?" the old man cursed.

At this moment, Liujin suddenly held a dumpling and delivered it to the old man's mouth, "Old ancestor, it's cold to eat dumplings!"

"Our good grandson is the same as us!" The old man ate with a smile.

"Old ancestor, the bachelor who teaches grandson to study said that Fengyangzhong is our hometown!" Liu Jin said with his head tilted, "He also said that when his grandson reaches thirteen years old, he will walk to Zhongdu and worship the imperial tomb."

"Well, you can't forget your roots!" The old man nodded, "When your grandfather and uncle were young, they walked back in hemp shoes."

"Ancestor, are you going back with your grandson?" Liu Jin asked.

The old man suddenly stopped and didn't know how to answer.

"Grandpa Emperor!" Zhu Yunxiu felt a move when he saw the old man's appearance, "Why, grandson will accompany you back to your hometown in Fengyang to see?"

As he said, he laughed, "It's good to go back and see where you lived before, and tell the grandchildren about the difficulties of the past. Then go to the imperial tomb to take a stick of incense to remove weeds and add soil!"
