"I'm coming, Grandma," Xiao Ara immediately stood up from her seat.
"Stay here."
"But, Grandma..."
"Hmm... Alright. I'll stay here," said Xiao Ara, finally complying.
Through the main street of the small village, Mr. Rui walked side by side with Grandma Chiyo.
Whenever they passed a group, the people immediately stopped their activity and bowed, paying their respects to the two old figures.
"Is this how I feel? I feel that your number of students is decreasing," Grandma Chiyo spoke for the first time.
"That's true. There are a few of my disciples who have business elsewhere. Some of them also have their own lives. The only ones remaining in this place are them," replied Mr. Rui while looking at his students around him.
"Will they never come back?"
"Maybe someday, I don't know," said Mr. Rui.
"Some of them are in the Qin Kingdom and other neighboring kingdoms," he added.
