Sanxing City is also a day's journey by carriage from Macheng, but it was already afternoon when they set off, and they had to rest at night.

When we arrived at Sanxing City, it was already noon the next day.

Jiang Li looked at the sky and asked He Qingfeng.

"It's time. When I get to your house, do you still have to take care of the food?"

"...You guys can stay at the inn for a while, I'll go home by myself."

He Qingfeng refused everyone to go with him.

Yu Zhulin asked first.

"Why? Are you afraid that we will embarrass you?"

"of course not……"

He Qingfeng said this and glanced at Jiang Li.

"Though you do embarrass me."

"Why are you looking at me and saying that?"

He Qingfeng did not answer Jiang Li's question.

Shi Qingjue patted He Qingfeng on the shoulder.

"Are you afraid that when you return home, you won't be able to leave with us again?"

"I ran away from home for three years, and now I'm back. How could they let me go out into the world again?"

He Qingfeng smiled bitterly.

He had already made up his mind when he said he wanted to go home and ask for money. Even if he can't go to the martial arts conference, he still has to let his companions go.

"Snapped!"

Jiang Li hit He Qingfeng on the head with a fan.

He Qingfeng shouted.

"My fan is made of iron! It hurts!"

"It means you can't get good at it. It doesn't matter if you hit me on the head with a brick."

Tieniu said proudly.

He Qingfeng asked him.

"Then why is your Qinggong not as good as me who has no master?"

"...Actually, I have a disability in my legs, so I can't do Qinggong."

Tieniu thought for a moment and said this.

But everyone already knows what Tieniu is.

Jiang Li glanced at Tieniu's legs and said.

"I know a lame man with a broken leg who can run faster than me."

When she and Tieniu were talking, Shi Qing absolutely said to He Qingfeng.

"Actually, we don't have to go to the martial arts competition this year. As long as the five of us are together, it'll be fine."

"But we have put in so much effort, why should we just give up?"

"Just give up."

Shi Qingjue said calmly.

Jiang Li hit He Qingfeng again with his fan, and also hit Shi Qingjue.

He Qingfeng stood up immediately, hit his head on the roof of the car, and sat down again.

He covered his head.

"Why did you hit me again?"

"I just planned to say something to you after I beat you, but I forgot about it after talking to Tieniu. So I have to start from the beginning."

When Jiang Li said this, he thought of something, looked at Tieniu again, and raised his fan.

"Yes, I have to hit you too to punish you for interfering with me just now."

"Speak first and then fight."

Shi Qingjue stopped Jiang Li.

He knew Jiang Li's style too well and was worried that Jiang Li would try again later.

Jiang Li then sat down and said to He Qingfeng.

"Why are you trying to be cool or being serious? Just like what Boss Shi said, no matter how important the martial arts conference is, who else is important? If you leave, what else are we going to do?"

"So you hit the boss because he stole your lines?"

Yuzhulin suddenly understood and asked Jiang Li, who shook his head.

"Because the boss is also being cool."

Shi Qingjue looked innocent, but said nothing, waiting for Jiang Li to continue.

Jiang Li said again.

"For example, there is a box with a pigeon in it. Then grab a random medicine from the side. It may be poison or dough. If you can't tell the difference, put it in the box and close it. After an hour, I ask you, is the pigeon in the box alive or dead?"

"You don't even have to ask, I'm sure I'll be choked to death."

Yuzhulin replied instantly.

Jiang Li looked at Yuzhulin with "You shouldn't have such an IQ" look, and then said.

"The box has a hole in it."

"Then you can see inside the box?"

"...Do you care? You can't hold it in anyway! You can only poison it to death! Let me ask you, how can you know whether this pigeon is dead or alive?"

Jiang Li gradually couldn't control his emotions. I originally planned to give this group of people a little shock with her knowledge of the physics of the world, but I ended up running into Yuzhu Lin.

He Qingfeng thought for a moment and then said.

"Isn't it ok to just open the box and take a look?"

"Yeah."

Jiang Li spread his hands, this was the effect she wanted.

Shi Qingjue heard this and understood, and then said to He Qingfeng.

"Whether we will detain you or not, we will know after we went to your house."

"And even if we don't let you go, who among the five of us can stop you? It's not the first time you've run away from home."

Jiang Li also said the same thing.

He Qingfeng looked at several people but did not say what he originally wanted to say.

The first time he ran away from home, he was young and energetic, but when he returned home this time, he wasn't sure if he still had the courage to leave again.

Don't return to your hometown before you are old. Returning to your hometown requires breaking your heart.

He Qingfeng thought of the poem he saw a long time ago. At that time, he only thought it was pretentious and exaggerated.

He didn't say this, but said it to Jiang Li.

"Your metaphor of the pigeon is quite interesting."

"Right? I came up with it myself, it's purely original. From now on, this kind of thing will be called Jiang Xiaoyue's pigeon!"

Jiang Li has never been shameless.

Shi Qingjue thought for a while, and then suddenly asked Jiang Li again.

"So you hit He Qingfeng because he was trying to be cool, and you hit him because I was trying to be cool?"

"Yes."

"Then what you just said on the phone is considered being cool?"

After Shi Qingjue asked, Jiang Li's throat moved.

He Qingfeng also reacted and went up to grab the fan. But Jiang Li's grappling was not in vain. Although He Qingfeng had stronger finger strength, he still couldn't beat Jiang Li because of the wrong way of exerting force.

"Skill speaks louder than strength."

"Yuzhulin, help!"

Shi Qingjue shouted, and Jiang Li almost broke out in cold sweat.

"You should be on my side! I didn't hit you! Why are you so strong!"

The carriage arrived at He Mansion quickly, and the fan was still in Jiang Li's hand because He Qingfeng had not paid the ransom.

After getting off the carriage, she opened her fan and fanned herself, then asked He Qingfeng.

"Your family is quite impressive."

Grandeur is no longer enough to describe He Mansion.

In terms of floor area, He Mansion is not that big, just an ordinary wealthy businessman's yard. But the stone lion at the door, the carvings on the house, and the clothes of the doorman can all tell how rich this family is.

"The third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door can tell how the master is by how his servants behave."

Shi Qingjue also said the same thing.

If the servants dress like people who live a prosperous life, what does the master look like?

The waiter driving the car went over and greeted the doorman. The doorman recognized the waiter, after all he had been here more than once. “Hey, why are you free to come here today? It’s not the day of reckoning yet?”

"Who do you think that is?"

The waiter pointed at He Qingfeng.

He Qingfeng specially washed his face before coming.

But the guard didn't recognize it.

Jiang Li lent him his fan and asked him to show off his aura.

The guard's eyes widened.

"Three, third young master?"

"That's right. You go in and report it, and tell me..."

"Oh no, the third young master has brought someone to rob us!"

The guard acted like a fool and ran inside.

He Qingfeng froze on the spot, then looked back at his companions. The companions were all trying not to laugh out loud.

"You still have the nerve to smile! It's because of you that I look like a bandit."

As He Qingfeng spoke, he picked up a stone from the ground and flew it out, hitting the doorman's dumb point. The doorman was speechless for a moment.

"It's too noisy. Let's go in."

He Qingfeng said this and walked inside. The other guard did not dare to stop him.

While walking, Jiang Li suddenly said to He Qingfeng.

"As far as the process is concerned, you did bring us to steal money."

He Qingfeng ignored her, walked to the mute guard, stretched out his hand to relieve his acupuncture points, and then asked him.

"Who told you that I came home to rob money?"

"... That's what the servants say. Third Young Master, if you stole a hundred thousand taels from home and ran away, you will definitely come back to steal it after you have spent it."

"You seem to have ninety thousand taels that you didn't tell us."

Jiang Li patted He Qingfeng's shoulder and said.

He Qingfeng was also wronged, but there was no use in explaining, so he sent the guard away.

"Forget it, I know the way myself. Don't go out and talk nonsense!"

When he was walking into the house, many servants looked at him and were startled, and then ran away quickly.

He Qingfeng sighed.

"At least I don't have to find anyone to inform my father."

He said that, but when he arrived in the living room and saw his father still drinking tea as usual, he knew that no one came to inform his father at all, and he just went to gossip.

When he arrived at the door, Mr. He saw He Qingfeng, but he was not sure yet. The tea cup stopped in mid-air.

Until He Qingfeng entered the room, knelt down and kowtowed.

"Dad, the unfilial son He Qingfeng is back."

The tea cup in Master He's hand fell down.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Jiang Li caught the tea cup before it fell to the ground, and then handed it to Mr. He.

"Master He, the tea cup fell."

Rich people's teacups are probably quite expensive.

After she finished speaking, she retreated and stood beside a few people without speaking.

After all, this is He Qingfeng's family matter.

Mr. He stood up, walked forward, and looked at He Qingfeng on the ground.

"stand up."

"Children are not qualified to stand up."

"stand up!"

With a scolding, He Qingfeng seemed to have returned to a few years ago.

He slowly stood up and looked at his father, waiting for how he would scold him.

He Qingfeng saw Mr. He's hand raised and prepared himself for a slap.

But that hand just landed lightly on He Qingfeng's face.

"Let dad see if you've lost weight."

In one sentence, all He Qingfeng's preparations were useless.

His tears also fell down and he hugged Mr. He.

"Dad, I'm home."

Jiang Li looked at this scene with mixed feelings in his heart.

She likes to look at other people's happy families, but every time she sees them, she can't help but think of herself.

Jiang Li didn't want to, but he had no choice.

When he was in the second grade of junior high school, Jiang Li couldn't bear the pressure from his family and ran away from home, staying out for three days. I live in two cardboard boxes at the garbage station. When I eat, I go to the garbage can behind the hotel to find clean dishes.

Someone discovered it and called the police, who took her to the police station and called her family.

When Jiang Li's parents arrived at the police station, they slapped Jiang Li directly. If the police hadn't stopped him, Jiang Li probably wouldn't have been able to get home. But when she got home, she only received scoldings, insults, and beatings.

His parents talked about how difficult it was for them, how hard they worked, and yet Jiang Li was so worried. As they talked, they were moved to tears by their efforts.

Jiang Li sometimes hated her memory, which made her unable to forget that scene, the day when she was completely disappointed with her parents.

But now, she saw what a real reunion after a long absence was like.

Mrs. He also came soon. Like Mr. He, the first thing she asked He Qingfeng was "Why have you lost weight?"

This sentence is magical.

Many people think that caring about whether others have eaten is nonsense, useless, and just polite.

He Qingfeng has not been home for three years. In fact, he has not lost any weight outside, and has even gained a pound or two. But when he got home, his parents still felt that he had lost weight.

why?

Jiang Li thought for a day before he figured it out.

Because they have too many questions and things they want to know, but when they actually meet, those words will be blocked. All he saw was the person in front of him.

The person in front of me is the person I have missed for a long time, the person I have described over and over again in my mind.

Compared with the him in his mind, he was naturally thinner.

Just like when saying goodbye, all the care seemed feeble and finally condensed into one sentence.

"Eat well."

From the first meeting to He Qingfeng's introduction to Jiang Li and the others, He Qingfeng's parents never asked him why he ran away from home and whether he was tired of living.

"You guys, please take care of our mistress outside."

Jiang Li's worries were instantly dispelled by Mrs. He's words.

She asked He Qingfeng maliciously.

"Little San?"

"...Mom and dad, do you still have food? We haven't eaten lunch yet."

He Qingfeng changed the topic very abruptly, and Master He also spoke immediately.

"Yes, yes. You, go ask the cook to cook a meal for five people. Don't make it too greasy. You will have another meal at night."

After giving instructions to his servants, Shi Qingjue said to He Qingfeng again.

"Is there anywhere we can rest? We're a little tired."

"Yes. You go and take some guests to the east wing to have a rest."

Master He ordered people to take Shi Qingjue and the others away again.

When leaving, Yuzhulin asked Shi Qingjue.

"Boss, are you tired?"

"No. But it's not easy for parents and children to meet each other, so let's not disturb them there. There are always some things we don't want to say in front of outsiders."

Shi Qingjue explained and Yu Zhulin nodded. She didn't expect this.

Jiang Li looked behind.

"I hope his parents won't start beating him when they see there are no outsiders."

"This is also the case. But judging from the looks of his parents, it shouldn't be the case."

Actually it won't.

Over at He Qingfeng, he was talking to his parents about what he had done outside for so many years. He talked about his one-year experience in martial arts at the inn, about meeting Shi Qingjue and the others, about his battles with several enemies, about getting a secret book on acupuncture points, and about his preparations to go to the martial arts world. General Assembly.

These words are not entirely true. His tragic experiences are always omitted, and some of his own glorious experiences are added to the story.

Mrs. He held her son's hand.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

"Dad, Mom, actually... I still want to go to the martial arts competition."

He Qingfeng finally said this. (End of chapter)
