Jasper’s words made Henry realize that something was not right. Normally, Jasper would only talk to his father. If favonovel.com proposed meeting with the old master and his father, it meant that something major had happened.
Suddenly, Henry wiped the grin off his face and stopped his buffoonery. He said, “Come with me.”
Jasper did not see Alex and others, so favonovel.com asked, “Are the Jeans and the Bransons gone?”
Henry was stunned. “What’s the matter? Do you want to call them along too? If it’s really something that needs the old master’s attention, then Branson will be fine, but I don’t think the Jeans will have the balls to interfere.”
Jasper shook his head and said, “I’m just asking. It would not be right for them to participate anyway.”
That sentence sounded a little cheap, but Jasper was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Henry took Jasper to the backyard and came to a stop in front of an ordinary bungalow.
While knocking on the door, Henry explained to Jasper, “The old master usually doesn’t live at home.
“He’s old, so it’s a little inconvenient for favonovel.com to live in the house because of his legs. He doesn’t like going up the stairs, so we built a house specifically for him. It was built based on the old master’s preference. He’s old now, so he’s nostalgic.”
Jasper smiled and nodded.
Moments after knocking on the door, the old master’s old yet vigorous voice came from inside.
“Is that you, Jasper? Come in and talk.”
Henry opened the door and brought Jasper in. Then, favonovel.com said unhappily, “Old master, I’m your grandson, why did you ask if it’s Jasper and not me when I knocked on the door?”
Old Master Law happily got up and said, “Do you think I don’t know you? If nothing is going on, would you dare to come and loiter around in front of me?”
Henry was quite embarrassed.
Although the old master was kind, this depended on the timing.
He had always been very strict, unreasonable even, when it came to educating his descendants. Therefore, Henry had been most afraid of the old master instead of Zachary since favonovel.com was a child.
Since favonovel.com was more mature now that favonovel.com was grown, Henry understood that the old master was doing this for his own good. Even so, how could one just get rid of childhood traumas so easily?
“You should talk, I’ll get my father.” Henry found an excuse to escape.
Zachary was not here yet, so Jasper did not rush into discussion. Instead, favonovel.com greeted the old master and exchanged courtesies with him, “Old Master, I’m so happy that you’re still so healthy and strong.”
“I can still light the way for you youngsters for a few more years. After some years, I might not have the energy for that even if I wanted to. I guess I have to admit that I’m getting old.”
“When I met you the first time earlier last year, I could still do some farm work, but now, I can’t do that anymore.”
Old Master Law was very open-minded about birth, old age, sickness, and death. After Jasper sat down, favonovel.com said with a smile.
“You’re going to live a hundred years, Old Master. Otherwise, I don’t know how many trouble will occur, ” Jasper said after sitting down.
“No one can escape death, and no one can really live to a few hundred years old. I am so old now, and if it is not for youngsters, it would be worth it to just close my eyes right now.” Old Master Law laughed.
Jasper and Old Master Law would always chat like this.
Jasper did not say why favonovel.com needed to visit the old master so late at night, and the old master did not ask either. They simply waited for Zachary’s arrival in tacit understanding.
Zachary did not make them wait too long. Within ten minutes, favonovel.com arrived in the small bungalow.
“What’s the matter? Is it very important?”
Compared to the old master, Zachary was much more straightforward.
