But when they slowly stepped into the courtyard, they found that in addition to the newly built house, there were three other houses in the courtyard that were obviously quite old.

This is the old house of the Leng family. When the new house was built, it was the three main rooms that Old Man Leng insisted on keeping.

Although the house is old, it is very solid. The blue bricks and tiles show the signs of age, but it is also kept very clean and warm.

At this time, Old Man Leng was sitting on the doorstep, weaving a basket.

Ever since the Leng family opened a shop, their lives have been getting better and better. The old man's spirit has been maintained very well. He is no longer as skinny as before, as if he was carrying a suffocating mountain on his back for the sake of this family.

Today, Mr. Leng is still in good health, with sharp eyes and clear ears.

Hearing the noise, he looked up and his gaze was fixed on Leng Gui, the person who had just entered the room.

At first, there was a trace of confusion in his clear eyes, then his pupils shrank slightly, he was shocked and at a loss, and then he seemed to slowly lose belief.

With a clang, the woven basket that was pressed on her knees rolled down the slope under the eaves and rolled a long way.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Gu Yin was reading a book in the main room, so he didn't see the group of people who had just entered the courtyard. Suddenly, he saw Old Man Leng standing up unsteadily and trembling, so he rushed to the door and supported him.

Then Gu Yin followed Mr. Leng's gaze and saw the group of people who had just entered the door, as well as Leng Gui and Madam Leng, and he couldn't help but pause.

"Gu..."

Leng Gui and Madam Leng were both shocked when they saw this. They were about to exclaim when Gu Yin interrupted them hastily, "Uncle Leng, who are these people?"

"Kang'er, Kang'er, you are Kang'er..."

Before Leng Xun could open his mouth to answer, Old Man Leng at the side rushed over in a hurry, staggering with excitement.

"Kang'er, is that you? You're finally back..."

Old Master Leng's voice was choked with sobs and he almost lost his voice.

There was no news for more than ten years, and his life or death was unknown. I hoped and prayed day and night, and I regretted it all my life before my death.

I finally got to see my loved ones again, but they were already gray-haired and had passed away.

When Mr. Leng thought of his wife's regrets before her death, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Kang'er, Kang'er, your mother, your mother..."

"Dad, mother?"

Leng Gui was a little confused when he heard this, with a look of confusion on his face. He muttered something, but he only felt a splitting headache and could not help but hold his head tightly, which was pounding like a pounding stone.

"Hiss, it hurts, my head hurts so much!"

Thousands of images flashed through his mind, but Leng Gui couldn't grasp the main point. He only felt a buzzing pain in his head.

"Don't think about it, don't think about it, my husband, please calm down."

Mrs. Leng felt distressed when she saw this, and she comforted Leng Gui skillfully and carefully, just like she did every time before.

"Husband, husband, calm down!"

In the past, when Mrs. Leng comforted him in this way, Leng Gui would slowly calm down, but this time, I don’t know if it was because the shock was too great.

Leng Gui's eyes were red, as if he was recalling the fighting on the battlefield. Finally, he could not withstand the intense racing of his brain and fainted.

"Hurry up and take him to the room and call a doctor."

Leng Yan reacted very quickly and gave orders immediately, and then there was a period of chaos and confusion.

After sending the doctor away and arranging Leng Gui's son to rest in the room, everyone sat around in the main room and listened to Mrs. Leng narrating what she knew about Leng Gui over the years.

*

More than ten years ago, the country they lived in had a new emperor who had ascended the throne and the country was still unstable. The country was at war with neighboring countries and the people were living in misery. The imperial court was recruiting soldiers on a large scale, and every household was required to send a male child.

Rich families could pay money to be exempted from conscription, but the Leng family was penniless and extremely poor, and they really couldn't afford to pay.

Therefore, Leng Kang, who was only fifteen years old at the time, was conscripted into the army.

Leng Kang trained in the military camp for three years. Later, because of his outstanding qualifications in all aspects, he was selected as an undercover agent to infiltrate the enemy country. From then on, his registered residence was changed. Only his boss knew about this.

The undercover agents who infiltrate the enemy country are all outstanding talents selected from various military forces. They do not know each other's true identities, and each has his own secret mission.

Afterwards they were organized into a small team and secretly sent into the enemy country.

They all knew clearly that this might be a one-way mission, and they didn't want it to be a life-threatening mission.

It was a life-and-death experience, and it really was. Leng Kang infiltrated the enemy country for four years, delivered countless messages, and made great contributions.

But in the end, he was unfortunately stabbed several times and injured his head in the battle. After his boss risked his life to save him, Leng Kang was rescued from the brink of death. However, his boss died on the way back to the camp because of his fatal injury.

Therefore, when Leng Kang woke up from his coma, he could not remember any of his previous memories because his head was injured.

However, his superior who knew his real name died in the war.

Leng Kang didn't know where his home was, so he only saw the word "Leng" on the fabric, so he named himself Leng Gui, meaning he could return home soon.

Later, after the war was won and the country was stabilized, these meritorious soldiers were rewarded and given official positions according to their merits. Leng Kang was among them and was promoted to captain.

Perhaps it was the shadow left by years of fighting on the battlefield. Whenever Leng Kang tried to recall the past and find his lost memories, he would have a splitting headache and nightmares every night.

Later, Leng Gui's new boss saw that this was not a solution for him, so he suggested that he start a family and move on.

Afterwards, he personally acted as a matchmaker and married his daughter, now Mrs. Leng, to Leng Gui.

After they got married, they lived in love and harmony. Soon after, they gave birth to a daughter. Leng Gui loved her very much and named her Leng Jiaren.

He hopes that his daughter can grow up to be a beautiful young lady, and that he can find a beautiful lady with both talent and appearance. He also hopes that the beautiful lady is his family, and that he can recover his memory and find his family as soon as possible.

Seeing how much her husband longed for home, Mrs. Leng often helped Leng Gui find his relatives, invited famous doctors, and tried to see if there was any way to restore his memory.

But finding relatives is not so easy. There are no clues and Leng Gui has no memory at all. The search lasted for five or six years.

*

When Leng Gui woke up from his coma, it was already dark and there was only one light on in the room. He got up from the bed in a daze and could barely see the furnishings in the room.

He sat on the bedside for a while, not realizing where he was, yet he felt inexplicably at ease.

It was as if he subconsciously felt that this place made him, who had fought on the battlefield before, feel safe and trustworthy.

The sound of children playing and laughing outside the window brought Leng Gui back to his senses.

Then he got up and left the house. As soon as he opened the door, the aroma of food hit him in the face, making him feel safe and warm.
