Siheyuan: How many worlds does the system integrate?

Time flies by and now it is 2014.

Today, Li Xuewu is 74 years old, while Liang Ladi is five years older than him and is already 5 years old.

Because she had given birth to five children and lacked adequate nutritional supplements during pregnancy, her body was in great deficit.

Today, she walks with a staggering gait and has even begun to suffer from memory loss and cognitive impairment.

Unlike Liang Ladi, Lou Xiao'e is only one year older than Li Xuewu and is now 75 years old. However, due to her good physical fitness, she is still in relatively healthy condition.

In addition, Wang Guoying, Yu Haitang, Qin Jingru, Han Chunyan and others have also entered their old age. Their ages are 73, 71, 67 and 64 respectively.

The three women arranged by Li Xiangxiu for Li Xuewu - Ah Hong, Huang Jiawen and Wang Weiwei - are not young either, aged 65, 64 and 56 respectively.

Among them, the youngest is Cherie Chung, who is already 54 years old.

On the path of Qiandao Lake Manor in Hangzhou, the moonlight fell on the ground. Li Xuewu slowly pushed Liang Ladi in a wheelchair, enjoying the quiet time.

Over the past year or so, Liang Ladi's memory has gradually become blurred, like pages of a book blown away by the wind.

However, her dependence on Li Xuewu was like a tree root buried deep in the ground, growing deeper and deeper, and she needed his company almost all the time.

Every night, when darkness falls and the lights come on, Li Xuewu always gently takes Liang Ladi's arm, walks out of the house with her, and strolls on the familiar tree-lined path.

As they walked slowly forward, they talked in low voices about the past, recalling their past joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.

On this quiet night, the moonlight illuminates the figures of the two people.

Liang Ladi's eyes suddenly became clear and bright, as if she had traveled through the tunnel of time and returned to her youth.

She turned her head and looked at Li Xuewu affectionately, her eyes full of love and she whispered: "It is really my blessing to meet you in this life. If it weren't for you, I don't know how I would have gotten through those difficult years with several children. Xuewu, thank you!"

Li Xuewu smiled slightly, with a gentle light in his eyes. He responded: "Why should I say thank you? I should thank you for always staying with me all these years! I can always feel your care and love!"

Liang Ladi chuckled and teased, "Hahaha, we are already old, and we are still talking about love here. You are really a playboy!"

Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head, gently squeezed Liang Ladi's hand, and said, "No way, this is called loyalty, okay! We were in love with each other back then, and your behavior back then was extremely bold!"

"Who said we were in love? It was obviously you who took advantage of me when I was drunk!" Liang Ladi showed a hint of girlish coquettishness on her face.

Li Xuewu scratched his head awkwardly and said with a smile: "Okay, even if I took advantage of you, but if you give me another chance, would you still be willing to be with me?" His eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness.

Liang Ladi nodded: "I am willing. Although you are a little fickle, you are definitely a good man and a good father. I am willing to follow you! But... I am afraid that I don't have much time left, and I can't accompany you to the end."

After hearing this, Li Xuewu stopped, reached out his hand and gently massaged her shoulders, and gently comforted her: "People will eventually die. I am already 74 years old this year. It won't be long before we meet again!"

Feeling the strength on her shoulder, Liang Ladi's mood calmed down a little. She slowly said, "Let's go back to learn martial arts, back to the capital, I miss home!"

Li Xuewu nodded with tears in his eyes and answered with a choked voice: "Okay, let's go home, we will go back tomorrow!"

After Li Xuewu pushed the wheelchair back to the room, Liang Ladi remained conscious.

She asked Li Xuewu to call Lou Xiao'e and others and talked with them for a long time. Only when Liang Ladi felt tired and fell asleep did Li Xuewu quietly walk out of the room. At this time, the other family members were still waiting outside.

Lou Xiao'e approached Li Xuewu, gently held his hand, and gently comforted him: "Don't be too sad, we all know that this day will come sooner or later. Did Sister Ladi say anything special?"

Li Xuewu nodded heavily and answered in a low voice: "She said she wanted to go home. So, we decided to set off back to the capital tomorrow."

Lou Xiao'e responded without hesitation: "Okay, I will notify everyone to get ready right away."

However, as Liang Ladi's physical condition could not withstand the stress of flying, they had no choice but to return to Beijing in an RV so that she could rest comfortably in bed.

After two days of long and arduous journey, the long convoy finally arrived in the capital.

At this moment, Liang Ladi fell into a daze again, but she still held Li Xuewu's hand tightly and was unwilling to let go.

Realizing that her life was about to come to an end, Li Xuewu gathered all the children at home, and they accompanied her quietly, waiting for that moment to come.

"Learn martial arts!" Liang Ladi, lying on the bed, called softly.

Li Xuewu, who was recalling the past, suddenly woke up with tears still on his face and his eyes revealed deep sorrow and fatigue.

Hearing Liang Ladi's voice, he immediately walked to the bedside and held her hand tightly: "Ladi, you're awake!"

Liang Ladi smiled and said weakly: "Yes! I just can't bear to leave you, I want to see you again before leaving!"

Li Xuewu's heart felt like it was being torn apart, and he hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll be here and guarding you all the time." He quickly asked someone to turn up the lights so that the light illuminated his face, and then moved in front of Liang Ladi.

Liang Ladi raised her hand with difficulty and gently stroked Li Xuewu's cheek, feeling his warmth. Her eyes were full of love and attachment, and she said slowly: "Still so handsome and charming!"

Li Xuewu's tears welled up again. He tried hard to hold back his tears and said softly, "Thank you, Ladi."

Liang Ladi's breathing gradually became rapid, and her eyes began to blur. But she still insisted on looking at Li Xuewu, as if she wanted to deeply engrave his appearance in her heart.

Finally, Liang Ladi closed her eyes and left this world. Li Xuewu sat silently beside the bed, tears streaming down his face.

Liang Ladi also passed away and was buried next to Shen Xueru. The death of Liang Ladi was a heavy blow to everyone.

Although everyone knows that everyone will die one day, when this moment really comes, they still feel immense pain and sorrow.

Especially Li Xuewu, who had experienced the pain of losing a loved one once and now faced the same blow again. His body and mind were greatly tortured, and he felt that his vitality was gradually fading away.

After the two blows, Li Xuewu's body was obviously much older. His hair turned gray, his face was covered with wrinkles, and he was no longer as energetic as before. Instead, he looked exhausted, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

This is even more true for Lou Xiao'e, Wang Guoying and others. After seeing the deaths of Chen Xueru and Liang Ladi, they knew that their own days were not far away, and their mental states became depressed.

Li Xuewu wanted to escape, but found that he had no way out.

Each of them was his dearest and most beloved one. Although he knew that they would leave him one by one, he had no way to stop them. This kind of sadness always lingered in Li Xuewu's heart.

As the days passed, the pain in Li Xuewu's heart gradually deepened.

He often thought of the good times he spent with Lou Xiao'e and Wang Guoying. Those warm memories have now become sharp blades that pierce his heart.

He could not forget the affection and love between them. These emotions were deeply rooted in his heart and could not be erased no matter what.

However, fate did not seem to let Li Xuewu go.

I don’t know whether it was due to the shock of Liang Ladi’s death or because of overwork, but half a year later, Lou Xiao’e, who was originally in good health, suddenly passed away.

She passed away silently while she was sleeping at night. When Li Xuewu called her the next morning, she was gone.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, completely crushing Li Xuewu. He could not accept this fact, as if the whole world had lost its color.

Before he could recover, Wang Guoying, who was already a person with a deep mind, also passed away.

This sudden and continuous blow was difficult for Li Xuewu to bear. He often woke up in tears at night, his heart filled with endless grief and helplessness.

Everything in life seemed to become gloomy and he felt like he was abandoned in a dark abyss, unable to find a glimmer of hope.
