Chapter 775: All gone with the wind

Ye Chen didn't pay too much attention to the Ye family's Feng Shui and the moving of the ancestral grave.

He was actually not interested in the people and things of the Ye family.

All along, regarding the Ye family, he only cared about two things.

First, where are his parents buried and whether he can go to pay homage;

Second, who harmed his parents and whether it was the Ye family.

As for other things about the Ye family, he didn't want to take them into his mind at all.

Therefore, after hearing Gu Yanzhong introduce the situation of Mount Ye Ling, Ye Chen asked: "Uncle Gu, can I go to Mount Ye Ling to pay homage?"

Gu Yanzhong said: "Mount Ye Ling is the ancestral grave of your Ye family and a place of Feng Shui importance. Usually, the Ye family controls it very strictly, and outsiders can't get in at all. Even if I go, I have to say hello to the Ye family in advance and make an appointment. However, you are a descendant of the Ye family, so you should be able to go directly after saying hello."

Ye Chen shook his head and said: "Uncle Gu, to be honest, I don't want the Ye family to know that I have come to Yanjing. For the time being, I don't want to have too much contact with them."

Gu Yanzhong thought for a while and said: "Then let's do this. I will call your eldest uncle later and say that I want to pay homage to your parents, so that he can say hello to the people below, and then you can disguise yourself a little and go with me. After all, you look too much like your father. If the people of the Ye family who are a generation older than you see you, they will definitely recognize you."

Ye Chen hurriedly got up and bowed deeply to Gu Yanzhong: "Uncle Gu, thank you for your fulfillment!"

Gu Yanzhong hurriedly got up to help him, his voice trembling: "Chen'er, you... what are you doing? You are our family's great benefactor, why do you have to bow to me for such a small matter..."

Ye Chen said solemnly: "Uncle Gu, it concerns my late parents, which is by no means a small matter to me. My parents have been dead for eighteen years, and I have never been to their grave to pay homage. This is unfilial. You can fulfill me and give me this opportunity to be filial. It is of great significance to me. How can I not bow to you!"

When Gu Yanzhong heard this, he hurriedly blamed himself: "Oh, I said the wrong thing. This is indeed not a small matter. Don't worry, Uncle will take you there tomorrow!"

Lin Wanqiu on the side said: "I and Nannan will go too. If only you two go, the Ye family will easily become suspicious. After all, the Ye family knows our family's situation very well. Our family has no young men except you."

Gu Yanzhong said: "That doesn't matter, Chen'er can disguise as my driver."

Lin Wanqiu nodded, but still insisted: "Let's go with you. I haven't seen Brother Ye and Sister-in-law Ye for half a year."

"Yes!" Gu Qiuyi also hurriedly said: "Dad, just let Mom and me go with you!"

Gu Yanzhong nodded and said: "Okay, then let's go together tomorrow!"

After speaking, he thought about the time and said: "Let's do this, I will go to the group board meeting with Chen'er in the morning, you two wait at home, and we will pick you up after the meeting."

Lin Wanqiu agreed immediately: "Okay!"

Between drinking, Ye Chen and Gu Yanzhong finished the four-jin bottle of Moutai.

After eating and drinking, the two were in high spirits, so Gu Yanzhong pulled him to look through many treasured old photos in the study.

These old photos all had the figures of Ye Chen's parents. The earliest photos were when Ye Chen's parents just got married, before Ye Chen was born.

Ye Chen's parents, just from their looks, were absolutely the best of the best.

Ye Chen's father was handsome and dashing, and his mother was beautiful and generous. Especially his mother's beauty, even Lin Wanqiu couldn't compare with it. No matter in which era, she was a crane among chickens.

It's a pity that the golden boy and jade girl who were famous in Yanjing back then have long since gone with the wind, leaving only mottled images and residual memories.

At that time, Gu Yanzhong was not married yet, so at the wedding, he stood alone beside Ye Chen's father and took a group photo with Ye Chen's parents.

Then, it was the photo of Gu Yanzhong and Lin Wanqiu's wedding.

At his wedding, Ye Chen's parents were present to congratulate him.

So, the four of them took a group photo.

Then, Ye Chen was born, and the four people in the photo became five. He was wrapped in swaddling clothes by his mother and held in her arms.

Afterwards, Gu Qiuyi was also born.

So, the photo became six people.

These six people, from the two children being in swaddling clothes, became Ye Chen standing beside his parents, and then Gu Qiuyi also stood beside her parents.

And then, there were photos of the two children.

Ye Chen was half a head taller than Gu Qiuyi, so he looked like a big brother, while Gu Qiuyi looked like a little sister, following closely by Ye Chen's side.

Interestingly, in every photo of the two, Gu Qiuyi was tightly grabbing Ye Chen's arm, looking very happy and happy.

And Ye Chen on the side always had a bit of reservedness, deliberately trying to keep some distance from Gu Qiuyi.

Gu Yanzhong showed him these old photos while sighing: "I really didn't expect that time would pass so quickly. In a blink of an eye, you are already so big."

Ye Chen looked at so many old photos of his parents, his eyes were red, and he almost shed tears several times, but he held them back.

Seeing this, Gu Yanzhong patted him on the shoulder gently and said: "Chen'er, if your parents knew about your safety in the underworld, they would definitely be very happy."

Ye Chen nodded and sighed: "It's just that I feel a bit ashamed to face them. I haven't paid homage to them for so many years, and I feel ashamed in my heart. Moreover, I haven't made any proud achievements all these years, and I'm sorry for my parents' cultivation."

"Don't say that." Gu Yanzhong said seriously: "Your parents were open-minded all their lives and never had the expectation of hoping their son would become a dragon. They were originally the best of the best, so their expectation for you has always been to hope that you can grow up healthy and happy, and have no worries and troubles in your life."

Speaking of this, Gu Yanzhong smiled and said: "Do you know, your mother especially liked the name Li Mochou in Jin Yong's novels, and thought the name was particularly good. It's just that Li Mochou in the book is not a good person. Before you were born, your mother joked that if you were a little girl, she would name you Mochou."

Ye Chen smiled knowingly, thinking of his mother, a warm current in his heart.

His mother was indeed as Gu Yanzhong said, never hoping that he would become a dragon or a phoenix. Since he was a child, she told him that living is to be happy, and being a kind and upright person is enough. Achievements and status are not important.

After chatting with Gu Yanzhong all afternoon, when Lin Wanqiu came in to deliver fruit, she said to Ye Chen: "Chen'er, the guest room has been prepared for you, next to Nannan's room on the second floor. You drank so much wine at noon, you'd better go back to your room and rest for a while. If you have anything, just find Nannan directly."

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded: "Thank you, Auntie Lin." ===== CHAPTER 776 =====
