Chapter 1449: A World Full of Miracles

Just when Gu Yi was immersed in the brilliance and memories of the past, his grandson, Xiao Yi, was tinkering with a novel gadget on the side. It was a simple kite made of bamboo strips and thin thread, not very exquisite in appearance, but it carried the child's endless imagination and joy.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, look, can the kite I made fly?" Xiao Yi looked at Gu Yi with expectation, his eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement.

Gu Yi was infected by Xiao Yi's vitality, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook into a gentle smile. He took the slightly clumsy kite, examined it carefully, and then said seriously: "Well, this object has a unique shape and quite the style of the war flags used by our army during the Northern Expedition back then. It will definitely be able to ride the wind and soar into the clouds!"

After hearing this, Xiao Yi's eyes widened, as if he really believed that his kite had extraordinary abilities. He pulled Gu Yi's hand, and the two ran to the courtyard together, preparing to test-fly this "War Flag Kite".

The spring breeze brushed against the face, which was a good time for flying kites. Gu Yi held Xiao Yi's hand and flew the simple kite together. At first, the kite wobbled, as if it might fall at any time, but with the help of a gust of wind, it rose steadily and flew higher and higher, causing Xiao Yi to cheer and jump for joy.

"Grandpa, look, it really flew up! Just like our Shu Han army, no matter how big the difficulties are, we can move forward bravely!" Xiao Yi shouted excitedly, his face full of innocent smiles.

Looking at the kite soaring freely in the sky, a warm current surged in Gu Yi's heart. Yes, no matter how the years change, isn't that pursuit and persistence for dreams just like this kite? Even if the starting point is simple, it can fly to higher and further places under the guidance of the wind, right?

Just as they were immersed in the fun of flying kites, a strong wind suddenly struck. The kite string tightened suddenly, pulling the reel in Gu Yi's hand and throwing it away, hanging it directly on the old locust tree in the courtyard. Seeing this, Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed "puchi", and even Gu Yi couldn't help but be amused by this sudden change.

"Grandpa, it seems your 'War Flag Kite' is too powerful, even God wants to take it as an apprentice!" Xiao Yi said while laughing, and pointed to the kite hanging on the tree seriously.

Gu Yi shook his head with a smile, but his heart was full of relief. Isn't life composed of these ordinary and warm episodes? He and Xiao Yi tried to save the kite together, and the process was full of laughter, as if even time had slowed down.

At dinner time, Gu Yi told this episode as a joke to his family, which made the whole family burst into laughter. His son teased with a smile: "Father, you were strategizing and winning thousands of miles away back then, but now you have been 'captured' by a small kite. If this spreads out, I'm afraid it will become an interesting story of Shu Han."

Hearing this, Gu Yi laughed loudly, his heart full of satisfaction. Yes, in life, fame and wealth are all floating clouds. Only family gathering and sharing the joy of family are the truest happiness.

Since then, whenever the spring breeze brushes against the face, Gu Yi would take Xiao Yi to fly kites, and that "War Flag Kite" became a treasure in the family. Whenever it was mentioned, it always caused bursts of laughter. This warm and slightly funny story also became one of the most precious memories of Gu Yi's later life, letting him cherish everything before him while enjoying the joy of family.

Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yi had grown up and inherited Gu Yi's wisdom and courage, becoming a pillar of the new generation of Shu Han. And Gu Yi, with a more peaceful mindset, continued to play the role of the family sage, using his experience and wisdom to guide the younger generation forward.

On a spring afternoon, Gu Yi sat under the old locust tree in the courtyard, holding a yellowed history book in his hand, occasionally looking up at the sky, as if looking for something. Xiao Yi walked to his side and asked softly: "Grandpa, what are you looking for?"

Gu Yi smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with gentle light: "I am looking for the kites we flew together in those years, and those simple but laughter-filled days."

Hearing this, a warm current surged in Xiao Yi's heart. He sat close to Gu Yi, and the two sat quietly like this, enjoying this tranquility and harmony. At this moment, whether it was the hero of the past or the hope of the future, they all turned into the warmest scenery in this spring day, telling stories about love, dreams, and inheritance.

And that funny story about the "War Flag Kite" also became a classic passed down from generation to generation in the family, reminding everyone: no matter what situation you are in, keep an optimistic and upward heart, and life will always have unexpected surprises and joys.

Just on this warm spring afternoon, a crisp sound of footsteps broke the tranquility of the courtyard. A little girl jumped in, she was Xiao Yi's daughter, named Ling'er, a little one who had not yet seen the world and was full of curiosity.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, what are you talking about? What kite? I want to fly a kite too!" Ling'er ran to Gu Yi's side, pulled his hand, her eyes sparkling with expectation.

Looking at Ling'er's tender face, a warm current surged in Gu Yi's heart. He smiled and touched Ling'er's head, saying: "Good, good, Grandpa will tell you the story of the kite, and then we will fly a kite together."

After hearing this, Ling'er clapped her hands happily, sat in Gu Yi's arms, and listened quietly to him tell the interesting stories of kites in those years. Gu Yi's words were full of warmth and humor, making Ling'er listen with relish, occasionally making "giggle" laughter.

After finishing the story, Gu Yi took Ling'er and Xiao Yi to the courtyard together. He found that "War Flag Kite" from those years. Although it was a bit old, he could still feel the joy and memories it carried.

"Grandpa, can this kite really fly?" Ling'er asked curiously, her eyes sparkling with expectation.

"Of course it can, with Grandpa here, the kite will definitely fly high!" Gu Yi said confidently. He picked up the kite and handed it to Ling'er, letting her feel the joy of flying.

Under Gu Yi's guidance, Ling'er and Xiao Yi flew that "War Flag Kite" together. The kite swayed in the wind, slowly rising to the sky, flying higher and higher, as if carrying their dreams and hopes to soar together.

Looking at the kite dancing in the air, Ling'er shouted excitedly: "Grandpa, look, the kite flew up! I want to be like a kite too, fly high, and go see this world!"

After hearing this, a warm current surged in Gu Yi's heart. He knew that Ling'er had a brave and curious heart; she longed to explore this unknown world and pursue her dreams.

"Good, Ling'er, Grandpa believes that you will definitely be able to fly high and go see the world in your heart. No matter what difficulties you encounter, you must face them bravely, just like this kite, no matter how strong the wind is, you can persist in flying." Gu Yi encouraged.

After hearing this, Ling'er's eyes sparkled with firm light. She knew that Grandpa's words were the greatest encouragement and support for her. She would definitely pursue her dreams bravely and go explore this world full of miracles. ===== CHAPTER 1450 =====
