1468 In the Old Mansion of Zhang Family (2/2)
”The old man is in Benigncloud Building...” Someone instantly stood out and showed the way for Zhang Tie and Zhang Su. They moved so flurriedly that all the servants and maids on the way hurriedly gave way to them. Therefore, Zhang Tie and Zhang Su had already come to Benigncloud Building in less than half a minute.
At this moment, Zhang Tie's nephews and nieces were gathering in the periphery of the building. Almost all the juniors had arrived, including the children of Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang. There were over 100 juniors among the crowd outside Benigncloud Building, male or female, ranging from 6 to over 20 years old.
Zhang Tie's kids and Zhang Yang's kids were being attended by the crowd with specific temperaments. They looked very special among the juniors of Zhang family like cranes standing among chickens.
Among these kids, Zhang Yang's 4th daughter Zhang Shiyu was almost 15 years old. Elegant and decent, she was already a beauty. By contrast, some like Zhang Chengba and Alexander were still young and full of curiosity. Although with serious looks, they were glancing around stealthily; instead of being affected too much by the depressive and sad atmosphere in the old mansion. Only Zhang Shini's and Zhang Shixia's eyes looked red while some others were comforting them.
As the old man was going to pass away and Zhang Tie was in close cultivation, Zhang Tie's parents and Zhang Yang took juniors here so that the old man could see them for the last time.
”Ahh, second uncle, you're back...” Zhang Shiyu hurriedly greeted Zhang Tie.
”Ahh, papa...” Zhang Chengba and the other little guys shouted.
Zhang Tie just nodded towards them as he told them to wait here with his eyes.
Many juniors in the Zhang family were not qualified to see Zhang Tie before. It was their first time to see Zhang Tie. Given Zhang Tie's young look, they even treated him as another junior of the Zhang family. Therefore, few of them could recognize Zhang Tie. After hearing Zhang Shiyu calling someone second uncle and Zhang Chengba calling someone dad, they even looked around out of curiosity as they were confused about who they were calling. Those smarter juniors who had seen Zhang Tie had long pushed out of the crowd and knelt down on the roadside, greeting Zhang Tie.
”Welcome back, Uncle, I'm...”
Zhang Tie glanced at them with a nod. Closely after that, he entered Benigncloud Building rapidly.
Dozens of Zhang Tie's cousins were staying in the Benigncloud Building. At the sight of Zhang Tie, those who were sitting on chairs immediately sprung up.
Zhang Tie remained silent. After Zhang Su glanced at them, all of them lowered their heads as they stood well and dared not look straight into Zhang Su's eyes.
”Where's the grandpa?” Zhang Su lowered his tone.
”Upstairs!” Someone replied at once.
Zhang Su nodded. Zhang Tie then went upstairs silently.
After going upstairs, Zhang Tie saw over 20 people in the side hall, including 11 children of the old man and Zhang Tie's uncles and aunts in law. Zhang Tie's parents and Zhang Yang were talking about something in a low tone.
At the sight of Zhang Tie, everybody let out a sigh of relief. Zhang Yang hurriedly moved forward with a sad look, saying, ”Grandpa has just woken up; he's missing you and Zhang Su...”
