Chapter 831 Reunited after a long absence (Part 1)

Even though he had heard from his subordinates in Wuchang, now when he heard Yang Chen report the origin of the mother and daughter, Li Ling's heartbeat was still beating rapidly uncontrollably, and his expression became more and more nervous. Could this be true?

It was precisely because he heard the name in the report that he rushed to Xiangfan despite the situation in Wuchang before he completely decided - a mother and daughter, whose mother's surname was Li and whose daughter was named Wei Tangtang, which was completely in line with her sister whom she believed had long been dead.

Whether it was the time they appeared here, the age of the mother and daughter, and the back of the sister he saw in the crowd that day... Even though he felt that this matter was a bit too unreasonable, Li Ling unconsciously brought hope to the end. That's why he asked Yang Chen to come to Xiangfan to investigate the matter personally, find out where the mother and daughter are, and find out all the details about them.

Seeing that Li Ling's mood seemed a little unstable, Yang Chen paused for a moment before continuing: "By the way, there is another man living with them, who is older, about fifty years old. Looks like the father of the woman surnamed Li, as the neighbors said, it seems that this is the relationship. He is a teacher in a tribe school in the city, and he seems to have a good income on weekdays..."

This made Li Ling's breathing tighter again. How could it be... Could it be that the cheap father who was with his sister and the others was really a cheap father who had never met before? He cheated him several times and was the least inconvenient and failed at home. Then after he became an official in the imperial examination, he had never appeared before?

However, this matter is just like my sister who was able to escape with her daughter from that disaster, and it is so unbelievable.

Yes, it is enough to be surprising that sister and Tangtang can live. You should know that after they were taken away by the Wei family while Li Ling went to the Xuzhou provincial examination, their Jiangbei County was attacked by the Luotian Sect, and the entire county town fell. In the end, the Wei family was even destroyed. The family was more than 100, regardless of gender, age and young, and were killed.

It was precisely because he learned of this result from the government that Li Ling was convinced that his sister and Tangtang were both dead at the hands of the thief, which also made him deeply hate the Luo Tian Sect and wanted to kill them all!

But now, after ten years, my sister is still alive, and she has been in Xiangfan for nine years. Moreover, the one who lives with them is actually his cheap father, Li Tong?

If it weren't for all these things being reported by Yang Chen, Li Ling would have thought that someone was making up for it and was enjoying himself.

After a while of silence, Li Ling asked stiffly: "Where do they live now?" Whether it is or not, he has to go and check it out and confirm it with his own eyes.

If so, he would naturally have to ask what happened before and take them home to reunite their families; if not, that would be fine. After so many years, some things are regretful in his heart, he can only accept them.

Yang Chen glanced at him and reported a place: "They live in Qingzhu Lane west of Xiangyang City..."

"Where did you talk about?" Li Ling's expression changed suddenly. This place name is so familiar.

"Qingzhu Lane in the west of the city is a very prosperous area in Xiangyang City. Their life looks pretty good, so there is no need to worry about their livelihood..."

Yang Chen wanted to be more detailed, but was interrupted by Li Lingfei. He had already stood up decisively and walked out: "You take me here..." He had to see them immediately. If it were sisters and the others, he had to bring them to his side!

He had already remembered why Qingzhu Lane felt familiar, because just now, Wang He mentioned to himself that there was the territory of the Tiger Gang, and the Tiger Gang was probably the open force of the Luotian Sect. If this is true, if the Luotian Sect wants to cause trouble, the place will be the most dangerous place!

Although Yang Chen didn't know what Li Ling was worried about, he quickly agreed and followed him out, then called Li Moyun and Yang Zhen, and hurried to the edge of the government office.

Fortunately, Li Ling was still calm at this time, but he didn't really ask too many people to go there. Only these most trustworthy personal experts. After changing into ordinary clothes and taking an inconspicuous carriage, he headed west towards the city.

As for the government office, Li Ling didn't care about it for the time being, so he only let Zhang Jing take charge temporarily, watch over the officials of all sizes and not let them pass any news.

The carriage was driving rapidly on the bustling streets of Xiangyang, only watching the crowds coming and going on the streets. It was really hard to believe that this place had been completely penetrated by the Luotian Sect, and a drastic change was likely to break out here.

However, Li Ling didn't have the time to think about this, but just kept urging him to hurry up. After more than half an hour, they finally arrived in the west of the city and came to a small alley connected to the long street and in a pretty good environment. The alley was surrounded by a bamboo forest, so this name was given.

Yang Chen pointed there from a distance: "Sir, there is Qingzhu Lane over there." Following his finger, Li Ling quickly glanced at it and found that there were a few idle men guarding the entrance of the alley intentionally or unintentionally, and it was probably the members of the Tiger Gang.

But he didn't take these people seriously and said, "Let's go and look for them now. By the way, are there any other people in the family besides those three?"

"There is another old servant and two servants." Yang Chen answered immediately. After Li Ling frowned, he immediately said, "I'll deal with them. Please wait for half a cup of tea before entering."

Li Ling nodded, and the carriage slowly entered the alley under Yang Zhen's drive. The idle men at the entrance of the alley only looked at it casually without asking much questions. After the car entered the alley, Yang Chen had already gotten out of the car and quickly headed towards the courtyard of the house in the middle.

After several ups and downs, others had already crossed the courtyard wall that was one person high, while Li Ling and the others continued to drive forward. Because a carriage blocked their sight from behind, the men who turned around at the entrance of the alley did not notice this change.

After slowly moving forward a little further, the car came to the target courtyard. At this time, the gate of the courtyard was just opened. Yang Chen had already solved the old servant and maid in the front yard, and easily opened the door, allowing Li Ling and others to enter. The carriage was not parked, and he entered the courtyard gate so dignifiedly, without arousing the suspicion of the idle men at the entrance of the alley.

When Li Ling got off the car, the gate of the courtyard had been closed. Yang Chen even went forward and said, "Sir, the mother and daughter are in the inner courtyard. Do you need us to go in together?"

Yang Zhen and Li Moyun have not figured out what Li Ling is making trouble today until now. At this time, they looked at their own adults with confusion. If they hadn't known about their adults, they would have thought that he was coming to force the girl or had a secret meeting with others.

Li Ling seemed a little timid and hesitant at this time. As the saying goes, he was timid in the hometown. At this time, he was really afraid that all this was just his own delusion. Everything was just a coincidence. The ones who lived here were not my sister and the mother and daughter. They had actually died in Jiangbei County many years ago.

After a long time of being stunned, Li Ling took a breath, shook his head and said no, and walked towards the moon gate that separates the inner and outer courtyards. He had experienced so many ups and downs in his life, and had suffered from the murder of his close relatives. He thought that no matter what the truth was, he could face it calmly.

Behind him, Yang Chen finally called his brother and Li Moyun, and told everything softly, making the two of them feel stunned for a while and they were unable to come back to their senses. Especially Li Moyun, after his body was shaken, a different kind of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

This yard is not big, and the environment is really good. It is not only quiet enough, but also flowers and trees are planted everywhere. Li Ling walked along the way, and there were blooming flowers and plants on both sides of the path, and there were waves of faint fragrance, which made people feel refreshed and made his steps more firm.

Through this flower and tree, Li Ling saw three rooms standing in front of him. Just as he was thinking about where to go first, the door of a room on his left suddenly opened. A girl of fifteen or sixteen walked out with a smile, and then happened to meet Li Ling head-on.

This made her stunned suddenly, and then she screamed in panic: "You...who are you? Why did you come to my house?" It was obvious that she regarded Li Ling as a gangster.

When Li Ling saw the girl, she was shocked and suddenly became a little speechless. Even though many years have passed, even though she was just a little girl at that time, her eyebrows and eyes, especially the pair of small dimples, were still similar to those before. Moreover, if you look closely, this girl is similar to her sister in her memory...

You can't be wrong, she is Tangtang, her niece!

Seeing this strange uncle man staring at him blankly, the girl was even more panicked. She couldn't help but screamed in surprise: "Who are you? Leave... Mom, Mom... Grandpa, Grandpa..."

Her yell made Li Ling come back to his senses quickly and wave his hand and said, "Tangtang, don't be afraid, I, I am your uncle..."

"Uncle..." The girl was indeed stunned for a moment and looked at Li Ling with some suspicion. At this time, the door of the room on the left also opened. A woman in her thirties but still looked pretty also ran out in panic, holding a stick in her hand.

As a result, she was about to shout and beat her, but when she saw the man who broke into the house in front of her, she was stunned: "You...you are Brother Ling..."

"Sister, sister!" Li Ling also immediately took a step after seeing her, shouted loudly, bent her knees and half-kneeled in front of her.

That’s right, this woman who came out of the room was his “long-standing murdered” sister Li Le’er!
