On the other hand, outside a small village outside Chang’an city, a gray-haired old man and a middle-aged man were rushing towards the village at a very fast speed.

Looking at the coins that were thrown over, there were at least 50 coins, which made Mo Li confused, and just when Mo Li was confused, the door of the room suddenly opened, and a wonderful young girl came out from inside.
”Father, is that you? You finally came back, daughter still thought in also can’t see you” Xiao Die heard a sound outside the door, afraid of noisy own mother, after all, her disease just got well, then boldly come out to see what’s going on, after the door to see is their father, Xiao Die hurriedly open the door out.

”Since it’s the little lady’s father who has returned, then we will take our leave first” the leading man heard Xiao Die’s words, looked around for a moment at Mo Li, and saw that Xiao Die’s words were true, and said to Xiao Die that they would leave quickly and in a very orderly manner.
When those people left, Xiaodie hurriedly brought her father and wanted to go in, just about to close the door, the old man who was with Mo Li came over.
”Xiao Die, this is your Master Gong, hurry up and call the people” said Mo Li hurriedly welcoming the old man in.
”This is the daughter of you and Yuanye, good looking, first time meeting, come this is a little trinket just for you” the old man looked at the small butterfly who hadn’t reacted yet, and took out a small wooden ruler from his pocket and handed it to the small butterfly.

”Thank you, Master Gong” Hearing this, Xiaodie then reacted, and obediently bowed to the old man, sweetly called out Master Gong, and then played with the small ruler in her hand.
”So good,” the old man reached out and touched Little Butterfly’s head. ,
At this time a woman wearing coarse cloth clothes, looks pretty good, just a little weak walked out, when he saw Mo Li, tears somehow had to flow down, but before she could talk to Mo Li, she saw the old man standing with his daughter, she rushed over and knelt down in front of the old man at once “Master, why did you come, ungrateful disciple Mo Yan has seen the master! ”
”Yan’er, what’s wrong with you, why are you so weak like this, get up quickly, the master didn’t blame you a long time ago, why do you have to do this” the old man saw Mo Yan, seeing that she was weak, he hurriedly told her to get up.
”Thank you master, thank you master” Hearing the old man’s words, Xiao Die’s mother, Mo Yan, kowtowed to the old man a few times before standing up with the help of her own husband and daughter.
