"Does Grandpa still have hope in him?"

"Now the last bit is gone!" The old man turned around slowly. He observed Ye Guoqiang here today almost masochistically all day, but what's the use of it?After all, the two are drifting away from each other.

"Grandpa, let me take you out to relax, maybe your mood will improve after you come back!" Ye Mingchen stepped forward to hold Grandpa's arm.

"Where should I go out to relax?" The old man was not very interested.

"Go to City A, right? I heard Steward Zhao say that it's your hometown, let's go back and see, okay?"

"City A!" After the old man heard these two words, his pupils dilated instantly, and he looked at Ye Mingchen with some complicated eyes.

This may be God's will.

"Go ahead!" The old man finally agreed.

Because the old man was going on a trip, Zhao Guan's family took all the servants on vacation and locked the door tightly, which made it impossible for Ye Guoqiang to rush over the next day.

Lisming City, City A is relatively far away, and it took three hours to fly, but it was only 10 o'clock when they arrived at the airport in City A. They booked a hotel around here early, so they didn't have to toss for a long time.

The old man set foot on this familiar solitude again, and was deeply moved for a moment. When he left here, there was no airport, not even a train station.

The war-torn era has passed, the devastation at the beginning has become the prosperity now, and he has changed from a young man in his youth to a dying old man.

"It's been so many years, I don't know if I can still remember the way home!" Looking at everything familiar and unfamiliar around him, the old man experienced this feeling of being close to his hometown for the first time.

The ground under his feet was the land of his hometown. That night, the old man slept very soundly. He even had a dream. In the dream, he was not the old man Ye that everyone admires now, but just an ordinary long-term worker of the Ye family.

"Changsheng, the enemy has already blocked our door. Take your child and get out of here as soon as possible!" A middle-aged man in a long robe came to Changsheng with a baby in his arms. in the room.

"Master, I can't go, I want to stay here with you!" Changsheng grew up in Ye's family since he was a child, and even his name was given to him by the master and wife. He didn't know where else he could go except Ye's family.

"Longevity, I beg you!" The man actually knelt on the ground.

"Master, what are you doing!" Chang Sheng knelt down in horror.

"I have a child in old age, and there is only one hope left in my family. This is all the savings of the Ye family over the years. You take him and the child with you! We don't want the child to avenge us, we only want him to be safe and happy grown up!"

Looking at the pleading master, Changsheng finally agreed.

"Master, would you like to name the child?" This was Chang Sheng's last request before he left.

"Let's call her Mingchen, Ye Mingchen, she is the future star of our Ye family!"

...

"Master!" The old man woke up suddenly from his dream. He got up and touched his forehead, which was completely covered with sweat.

"I haven't dreamed of the master for many years, why didn't I come back sooner!"

It's not just that the old man is timid because of his closeness to his hometown, Ye Mingchen also feels somewhat familiar with this place, but she has never been to this place before.

During breakfast, the old man asked Butler Zhao to inquire about a place called Osmanthus Town.

"Osmanthus Town? Is this grandpa's hometown?" Ye Mingchen felt that this was a place where sweet-scented osmanthus was fragrant from the name.

"Yeah, not only my hometown, but also your hometown!"

Ye Mingchen didn't think about this sentence carefully. She and the old man were originally a family. Isn't grandpa's hometown also her hometown?
"Old man, I found out!" Butler Zhao came back not long after.

"Osmanthus Town is a relatively famous tourist attraction in City A. August and September are the times when the number of tourists here is the largest. Now is the off-season for tourism. There are not many people, so we can take it easy!"

The old man nodded: "Is this place still called Osmanthus Town?"

"Yes, I heard that this name has lasted for hundreds of years. When the new leader was planning for it, he once proposed to change the name, but the residents of the town were unwilling!"

"Of course you can't change the name. If you change the name, it loses its meaning!"

"I still remember that when I was young, I loved climbing osmanthus trees. Every family made osmanthus wine when the osmanthus flowers were in full bloom. After I left, I never tasted authentic osmanthus wine!"

"Then let's go to the town today and see if they still sell it!" Ye Mingchen saw that his grandfather fell into memories of the past, so he knew that this was the right place.

Osmanthus Town is far from the city center, but because it is a key tourism development project in the city, the traffic is very convenient.

Although it is the off-season of tourism, there are still tourists in twos and threes carrying bags on the road.

After the old man saw all the buildings here, his eyes turned red instantly: "This place has been protected. I didn't expect that I could come back here in my lifetime!"

"Let's go, let's go and have a look inside!" Because he was a little excited, the old man's pace was much faster.

After entering inside, the old man was a little disappointed. Although the buildings outside still retain some characteristics of the time, the block inside is a complete commercial street, with various food stalls on both sides of the street.Before going in for a tour, you have to pay 50 yuan for tickets.

"Sure enough, it has changed, only the outer shell has not changed, everything else has changed!" The old man walked along the street touching the newly built bricks and tiles. It has been so many years, and it is normal to change. It is his own whimsy.

The three of them didn't look for a tour guide. Ye Mingchen and Zhao Butler followed behind the old man. The old man tried his best to recall everything when he was a child, and walked forward according to the route of his memory.

Suddenly, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed three times to the door of Ye Mansion in front.

"Grandpa, what are you doing!"

Grandpa's sudden action startled them a lot, and many passers-by on the street also looked over.

"I'm back, Mrs. Master, I'm back!" The old man lay on the ground and refused to get up, his mournful cry made Ye Mingchen feel very uncomfortable.

She raised her head and looked at the mansion not far from her. The word Ye Mansion was clearly written on the plaque. Ye Mingchen knew that Grandpa must have walked out from here.

Looking at everything in front of her, she suddenly felt some pain in her chest. What's going on?She has never been to this place before, why is she so sad?
