When the grandparents and grandchildren meet each other, the tears in the eyes that everyone thought were less hazy.Kuwahara Shen raised his hand and touched Siming's face, "My Tianyuan, it's grown so big."

"Grandpa." The kindness in the old man's eyes made Siming instantly think of his grandfather in his previous life. He remembered that he had just learned Go, lying on the bed, and finished playing chess with his grandfather with trembling hands. With a hint of sadness.

"Good boy, good boy." Holding Siming in his arms, he patted his back lightly while muttering, his voice choked with sobs.

He walked into the room holding his grandson's hand, and asked him carefully about his daily life, whether the food was good, whether his studies were serious... he forgot about the few people who were with him.

"Uncle didn't care about anything when he saw Tianyuan." Ayami smiled, and then poured Ogata a cup of tea, "Ogata-san, drink tea."

"If I had known it was my Tianyuan, I wouldn't have made it easy for you kid." Kuwahara Jin sat down on the sofa and squinted his eyes at Ogata, "The little guy is very talented, you have to teach him well."

"Even if I'm not good enough, there's still Taya-sensei." Ogata didn't mind Kuwahara's words at all, anyway, the apprentice had already accepted him, so he might snatch it away.

Siming supported Kuang Yuan Shen, and accompanied him for a walk in the small garden of the nursing home to digest food.Because he was in a good mood seeing his grandson, Makoto Kuwahara ate a lot more than usual at noon.

"Tian Yuan, is the game usually going well? I heard that you entered the round robin of the Masters this time?"

"Yeah." Siming nodded, "It's not bad. I was lucky this time. The results in the Throne and Tianyuan competitions were just mediocre."

"Very good. Your mother is at your age, and she is still fighting in the qualifiers." Kuwahara Shin's eyes are full of memories, "When your mother was young, she liked to play with Go pieces the most. When she was just born, she only heard The sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard makes my eyes look around, and I like to arrange chess pieces on the chessboard when I am a little older..."

Siming found a sunny place, put the cushion that Ichihara had given him on the chair in the corridor, supported Kuang Yuan Shen to sit down, and listened to him babbling about his mother's childhood.

"...At that time, I thought Akiko was joking with me. There are also Japanese chess academy and Kansai chess academy. Your mother has never been short of suitors. But she just took a fancy to a Chinese chess player. I was angry and objected, she He didn’t change his mind either. Every time he told me how good An Yan was with a smile on his face. Your father often came to visit me and played chess with me. It’s been a long time. Japan is not far away, and when I quit my career, I will go to China to find someone to play chess...I didn't expect..." Speaking of his daughter's death, Kuwahara Shin still couldn't help crying.

"Grandpa..."

He raised his hand and patted his grandson, "It's okay, it's okay, they still kept you. Son, it's hard for you. Grandpa is useless. Grandpa hasn't found you for so many years..."

Siming shook his head. "Mother Yamei is very good to me. I didn't suffer." Seeing what the old man wanted to say, Siming held the other's hand, "Grandpa, these things were all accidents, and none of us was responsible. Maybe you think I suffered Yes, but I have a really good life. Yamei’s mother brought me up and taught me to study,...I am very lucky.”

"Oh..." Kuwahara Shin sighed, raised his hand and touched his grandson's head, "My Tianyuan is a good boy."

During the few days waiting to meet, Kuwahara Shinya heard Ayami talk about his grandson's adoptive mother, and he admired this woman very much.The daughter just handed over her grandson to the other party. After the other party returned to China, there was nothing wrong with throwing the child into the orphanage, but the other party still raised the child, and did not blame the child for messing up his life.

"Your mother Ami is a good person." For a long time, Kuwahara Shin said softly.

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a day, but a lot of estrangement was eliminated. "Grandpa, when you feel better, let's go to see Mom and Dad, okay?"

[A Si? 】Chiba Boy was surprised that Siming would bring it up on his own initiative.

"Okay, okay." Kuwahara Shin nodded with tears in his eyes.

Although she also joined the ranks of persuading Siming at the beginning, Kanako was obviously still a little worried about Siming's confession of relatives.

When I got home that day, I saw Kanako sitting next to Riyo and watching TV, her eyes flicked towards the door.

At Hiyoshi’s house, after dinner, it’s time for personal freedom.Occasionally, they would get together to chat for a while, and rarely would the whole family nestle together in the living room.Presumably, they all wanted to know about Siming's situation today.

"How is your grandfather?"

Because he had some contact with professional chess players, Hiyoshi Zhiyasu still has some impressions of Kuwahara Shin.When the other party was hospitalized due to the sudden bad news, he even went to see the other party.

"I seem to be in good spirits today. My appetite has also improved a lot. Ms. Ichihara told me that recently, my grandfather's spirits have improved a lot, and he may be discharged from the hospital after a while of recuperation." After changing his shoes, Siming sat next to Hiji Down.Kanako, who was originally sitting next to Ride, rushed to Siming's side, kicked off the slippers on her feet, and nestled next to her brother.

Hijikatsu nodded.

"Then, Koichi-kun, what are you going to do in the future?" Rideo asked, and Kanako stared at her brother closely.

Siming touched Kanako's head with a smile, and held his younger sister in his arms, "Maybe I have to trouble Uncle and Auntie." Hearing this, Kanako's eyes lit up, and Ridai seemed to be relieved.

"Kanako is my younger sister, and I have to take her with me. My aunt lives in Shizuoka, and my uncle often travels on business, so she has to take care of the house. I will often go to the chess academy in the future, and it is not convenient to live in her house. Grandpa is the only one there. Alone, grandpa will probably live there after he is discharged from the hospital...so, probably, we have to trouble Auntie Li to take care of us."

"What's the trouble?" Ridai waved his hand, "It's hard to find a girl in the family, and I count on you to stay here forever."

Kanako also smiled when she heard that she didn't need to be separated from her brother.

Half a month later, Kuwahara Shin came out of the nursing home.Because Ayami has also formed a family, the two elder brothers lived together after thinking about it, and usually hired a person to take care of them.

"Father, uncle, then I'll pick up Guangyi first tomorrow."

Considering the child's feelings for Ami, Kuwahara Shin did not ask his grandson to change his name.The Kuwahara family didn't do anything for the child, and they couldn't repay Chiba Ami anything, so let's leave this name as a souvenir.

"Okay, you go back first. Let's play another game." Kuwahara Ren stared at the chessboard without raising his head, and waved his hand casually.

"Father..." Ayami sighed helplessly, "Don't lie down for too long, uncle is in good health." Seeing the two nodding, she turned around uncomfortably and closed the door.

Siming lay on the bed, flipping through this week's weekly Go magazine.Shinto-san and Ikaku-san both made it to this tournament of the throne match.Counting Taya-san and Kurata Kudan left over from last year, presumably, the throne race is also very intense.

【Asi, thank you! 】

"Huh?" Putting down the magazine, he looked at the Chiba boy with some confusion.

【You said, I'm going to see my parents...】 There was a hint of shame on the young man's face, 【At that time, I didn't even think about this...】

"After all, I'm Chiba Koichi now." Siming smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the other party doesn't mind.

【Actually, I'm still a little...】

"Guangyi, no matter what thoughts they had in front of them, it's all over." Seeing the young man in Qianye hesitating, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't, Siming knew that the other party might still be on the edge of his horns. didn't come out. "We just need to remember each other's good."

【Um. 】

The next day, Siming got up early.Brother Hiji has gone to the dojo.A hot breakfast is already on the table in the dining room.

"Kuichi-kun, you got up really early." Ridai saw Siming come in and waved to him, "Come and have breakfast. Is Kuwahara-san coming to pick you up at seven?"

"Yeah. Because I have to rush to Kamakura, so my aunt said to go there early."

"Then hurry up and eat. I'm afraid I'll be here in a while." Li Dai looked up at the wall clock on the wall. It was already 45:[-], thinking about sending some pastries to Siming, "This one is on the way Eat it, it's soft and easy to digest, and your grandfather can eat it too."

"Thank you, Aunt Ridai." Siming swallowed what was in his mouth, and thanked him for taking the food box that Ridai brought.

Probably because she was worried that the child would be hungry if she ate breakfast too early, Ayami also brought some bread and drinks, greeted Hiyoshi's family, and left with Siming.

This is not the time when everyone usually worships, and there are not many people in the cemetery.Siming followed the elders and walked towards the southeast side of the cemetery.The tombstones of Kuwahara Akiko and Lin Anyan are surrounded by towering metasequoia trees, and the sunlight shines through the branches and projects onto the photo of the tombstone.

The young couple leaned together smiling, and the most brilliant moment in their lives was frozen on this cold stone tablet.

Akiko carried a wooden bucket, and Siming took a spoon and sprinkled water on the tombstone.The Kuangyuan brothers stood behind Siming and found their grandson. Finally, Kuangyuan Shen was able to face the portrait of his daughter calmly.

"Akiko, we finally found Tianyuan." Taking the water spoon in Siming's hand, he took a few spoonfuls of water from the wooden bucket and sprinkled it on the grave, "Our Tianyuan is a gifted child. Seventh stage, look, look, taller than both of you..."

Ayami covered her mouth and sobbed softly, and couldn't bear to turn her head away. What a happy family, it was torn apart in that disaster.If it wasn't for Ogata-san, when would they find Tianyuan.

"Come on, Guangyi, give your parents a few kowtows, so that they can feel at ease underground."

"Hey." Siming responded, took the incense that Ayami had already lighted, and bowed to his parents with his hands up.Silently said in my heart, mother Yaxizi, father An Yan, I'm sorry for occupying the body that should be your son, but I will definitely go on in his place and create our own brilliance.
