Thinking of Liu Bei, Kou Yan's heart fire rose again. I was full of energy. Yes, I still have the most important things to do, I can't be decadent, I can't be cowardly.

Suddenly turned around, immediately wrote an official document, and quickly sent it to all the counties and townships under his rule. It is required that all localities should be linked, and all of them should enter a state of combat readiness. At this time, anyone who makes any changes will be dealt with according to the warlord!

After writing the paperwork, Kou Yan found Ma Liang again and asked him to organize the inspection of the grain, grass and ordnance of the government treasury for the last time. And told him that once the war started, it was very likely that the garrison of Changsha City would fall to him, a civil official. His responsibilities are heavy.

When Ma Liang heard this, his expression was solemn. He snorted firmly and led the way out. Seeing his back, Kou Yan seemed to see Deng Ai when he grew up. This child is now busy with the teacher before and after the saddle, and he is a partner with Ma Yan, I don't know if he will not get used to it.

From the bottom of his heart, Kou Yan prefers Deng Ai. Diligent, down-to-earth, and intelligent stop at the inner show. Ma Jian is a thorn in her eyes, too capable of doing things. Fortunately, the teacher also likes Deng Ai more, and once praised Deng Ai to Kou Yan as a good seedling and worthy of teaching.

When I think of Deng Ai, I will inevitably think of Aunt Deng, Aunt Hu and my sister in the backyard. It's time to see them. So, with a turn of his heels, Kou Yan came to the backyard.

The first to go, of course, was his sister's house. The maid told her that early this morning, the young lady went to Aunt Deng's place, and then went to Aunt Deng's place, but was told that both of them were in Aunt Hu's house.

In the end, Kou Yan was at Aunt Hu and saw a warm scene that he hadn't felt for a long time. The two eldest ladies were busy in front of the handloom, but their eyes fell on their sister. I saw that the little girl was holding a big ruler and comparing a piece of indigo material, and her mouth was muttering: "This color is so dark, my sister doesn't look good in it." ”

Kou Yan outside the door chuckled, took off his shoes and walked in, and the two ladies hurriedly put down their work and saluted. Kou Rong hugged his sister and rubbed hard in her arms: "Sister, you haven't come to see me for a long time." ”

"I'm sorry, my sister apologized to you. When I'm done with this time, my sister will definitely accompany you. Shall we go hunting in the countryside together?" Kou Yan sat down with his sister in his arms and coaxed him with kind words. "Okay, I'm going, I'm going with my sister, let's take Deng Ai with us. ”

Kou Yan raised his eyes to look at Aunt Deng with a smile: "I have to ask Aunt Tong if she agrees, you girl, Deng Ai is now studying with the teacher and helping the teacher do things, and he is very busy." ”

When Mother Deng heard this, she smiled on her face: "The little woman cultivates for Lord Xie Taishou. "Auntie is polite, my sister likes Deng Ai so much, I don't think he can become my sister-in-law in the future." Kou Yan said half-truthfully.

Aunt Deng was stunned, and Liu Qiao, who changed her name to Kou Rong, was ignorant: "What is my sister-in-law? Can I eat it?" Kou Yan was speechless for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "Haha, yes, it's delicious......" Aunt Deng was originally a little embarrassed, but she also laughed at this time. Aunt Hu darkened her face on the side, and sighed: "Hey......"

Kou Yan asked in surprise, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?" "Oh, no, it's nothing...... I just remembered something......" Aunt Hu muttered.

"Auntie, you are the teacher's mother, I regard the teacher as the closest and most trusted person, you can talk to me about any difficulties. Kou Yan assured.

"It's okay, I'm just some, just mentioned...... I ......" Aunt Hu was vague. The more she was like this, the more worried Kou Yan became: "Auntie, you are like this, I am more worried, if you don't want to tell me, then I will go and invite the teacher to come, you and tell him." ”

After saying that, she was about to get up, but Aunt Hu hurriedly stopped her: "Don't, don't alarm him." Kou Yan took the opportunity to say: "Then you tell me." "Yes, if you have any difficult things, it is better to say them for everyone to refer to than to hold them in your own heart. Aunt Deng was also on the side to help.

"Well, not for my son. Hu Shi let out a long sigh, his eyes a little red. "Teacher, what's wrong with the teacher?" Kou Yan's heart tightened. "In the early years, when he was still in his hometown, his father was still there, and he told him a family affair. Hu's tone was melancholy.

"Oh, it turns out that I have a teacher's wife. Is Shi Niang still in Yingchuan now? Why have I never heard the teacher mention it?" Kou Yan said in surprise. I have never heard that the teacher has a family, and the teacher only brought his mother with him when he came to Changsha, and Kou Yan never felt strange.

It's just that now that Hu Shi mentions it, she feels a little strange, the teacher's age looks like he is twenty-seven or eighteen, how can he not have a family?

"Hey, when I talk about this, I ...... in my heart," Hu said, tears rolling out of his eyes. Kou Yan was startled, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it over: "You, why are you crying?" Hu Shi did not take Kou Yan's handkerchief, but habitually pulled out Luo Pa from his sleeve and pressed the corner of his eye: "Your teacher, life is also bitter." ”

Kou Yan retracted his hand with a stern expression: "What the hell is going on?" Hu Shi sobbed as he recounted the past. It turned out that the life lawsuit that Xu Shu carried in his early years was actually his future father-in-law.

Xu Shu and this young lady have never met, and it was Xu's father who set it for him. I want to use my daughter-in-law to leave my son at home to help with farming. Who knew that Xu Shu longed for a ranger life and was not at home all year round. The woman's family felt that he was unreliable, unreliable, and his family background was very ordinary, so she wanted to withdraw from the marriage.

However, after the matchmaker has changed his relatives and accepted the dowry, how can he say that he will quit? Xu's father has a tough attitude and resolutely refuses to accept unilateral withdrawal from the marriage. But the woman's father ignored it, threw down the dowry and left. made Xu's father so angry that the three corpses jumped violently.

As a result, the woman was married to someone else. On the day of the wedding, Xu's father came to theorize, how could a daughter match two husbands. was ridiculed by the woman's relatives and kicked out of the door. When he came back, he was angry.

Xu Shu went home to mourn and heard about it, with his temper at that time, he could bear it, so he immediately copied the guy to find someone to settle the account. As a result, he missed for a while and killed someone. fled overnight, changed his name and surname, and never dared to return home, nor did he dare to regain his original surname.

After listening to what happened to his teacher, Kou Yan only felt sorry. It's not a pity that the teacher didn't marry a daughter-in-law. It's because the teacher is such an excellent person, but because he has taken on such a debt, he has become cautious, and he is no longer young and careless.

"Auntie, don't worry, those things are in the past. The teacher is now a great talent. The girl who admires the teacher does not know how many, he will definitely bring back a good daughter-in-law for you, and you should not think about it anymore in the past. ”

Kou Yan said as he spoke, blushing inexplicably. Hurriedly got up: "I still have some things to deal with outside, so I'll leave first." ”

――――――――――――Miss, Xu Shu doesn't have a wife, why are you blushing???
