In the study, Luo An was discussing with his father what the future of the Luo family should be, but when it came to Luo Rao's thoughts, he had an argument with Luo Yuanwei.

"Father, I said that Auntie is not a tool for power, and I will never let her do this."

"No one uses her as a tool, she's just for the Luo family."

"It's just nice to say, what's the difference?" Luo An smiled miserably, revealing weakness, "Do I want a woman to sacrifice for a man?" ”

"Father, you taught me to be loyal, to be patriotic, to be in charge of soldiers, and to teach me strategy, but now I find that those half-used are useless, and I am so incompetent that I can't even protect my sister." Luo An roared at Luo Yuanwei with tears in his eyes.

"My son, she did it voluntarily. This method is already very good, she is a daughter, no one will pay attention. Think about it, if that thing is not on you, it's okay to say, but we can't help it, the descendants of our Luo family can't be cut off from you. Luo Yuanwei couldn't help but burst into tears, "No matter how many ways the ancestor thought of, it was useless, and even ......" Speaking of this, Luo Yuanwei trembled a little, stopped, buried his head in his sleeves, and let out a long sigh.

He continued to persuade Luo An, "Throughout the ages, who has not had helpless things, who has not given up people, not to mention that strictly speaking she is not your sister, and she cannot be regarded as a member of the Luo family." ”

"Even so, she is also the orphan of her father's soldiers."

Luo Yuanwei shook his head, "She's just a baby I picked up on the battlefield." I didn't know why she was there, but I knew that if I didn't care about her, I wouldn't be able to live at such a young age, so I brought it back and told your mother that it was just to be recorded in her name, otherwise your mother would not have treated her well. ”

Luo An was silent, but his hand slowly grasped the corner of his clothes, and gradually clenched into a fist, "So now are you going to ask her for the nurturing grace that should be reciprocated?" Adopting her is just to keep her well fed and clothed, and when necessary, push her out to block the sword and sword, and raise people with such a mind, what is the difference between you and those who raise horses and donkeys. ”

"Rebel." Luo Yuan's majestic face turned blue.

"I taught you a lot for my father in the past, and I will teach you one more today" Luo Yuanwei took a breath, "Ci is not in charge of the soldiers. On the battlefield, would you wait for the enemy to be ready before attacking because they were not ready? Do you not draw your sword to attack because you think that there are old and weak wounded in the opponent's soldiers? Take back your indecision, take back all your goodness, what's the use of that. ”

"Of course not, but now this is not the case, I think she is my sister, my father thinks it is good, just because it is not himself who will be injured at that time, and I don't think that such a method is foolproof, the world is changeable, unpredictable, and where these princes are good to get along, how can she be able to deal with it no matter how smart she is, if Ah Rao takes this step, there will be no way to turn back, either once successful, or shattered."

"What my son said is right, you reminded me, in a few days I will pick a gentleman and let him teach Auntie, she has to study hard, for herself and for the Luo family. If there is really something like Wei Wenji's day, my father promised you that she would definitely be saved. ”

"No, no, she's my sister. I can't, father, I can't. He took two steps back, with tears on his face, "Father, I only know now that you are so careful of the overall situation, so cold-blooded and ruthless. ”

"Shut up." Luo Yuanwei said angrily, "Since you can't think clearly, then kneel in the ancestral hall, when you think clearly, when you get up, and you are not allowed to eat." ”

"Yes, father." Luo An straightened up and strode towards the ancestral hall.

"Miss, it's not good, I heard that the young master had a big quarrel with the general in the study, and he was punished by the general to the ancestral hall, and he was not allowed to eat until he figured it out." Bi Zhi said this, looking at Luo Rao with some concern, she knew that the young lady had a good relationship with his brother, and she would definitely be worried.

"Do you know why?" Luo Rao was a little anxious.

"I don't know, it's strange to say, I didn't even ask my wife, she went to the study to plead, but was kicked out by the general."

"Don't let anyone know, is that the thing?" Luo Rao's eyes widened, "You ask Sang Lan to make some fluffy snacks, and when there is no one, I'll send them to my brother." ”

"Brother, why are you more stubborn than me." Luo Rao sighed.

The sun was gradually setting in the west, and the twilight was swallowing the earth little by little, Luo Rao looked around cautiously, and walked into the ancestral hall after making sure that there was no one, and sure enough, she saw her brother kneeling motionless and straight.

"Brother, don't kneel, relax, your knees will hurt, anyway, there is no one now." Luo Rao sat on the ground, watching Luo An still not move, shaking his arm, and calling his brother in a long voice.

Luo An was helpless, rubbed his stiff knees slightly, and sat down as well, with his index finger lightly touching Luo Rao's head, "Who am I doing this for, disobedient." ”

"Dad didn't let anyone know what was going on, so I guessed that it was because of this."

"You must be hungry, let's talk as we eat."

Luo An looked at the snacks in the food box, they were neatly arranged, and they looked delicious, and he had a feeling for a moment that he was not here to kneel.

"Anyway, you're not kneeling now, and eating something won't get in the way, and it doesn't count if no one knows." Seeing that her brother was stunned, Luo Rao thought that he was hindered by his father's order not to eat.

Luo An said as she ate her pastry, "Arao, I really regret telling my father what you thought, I thought he would be able to come up with a better way so that my sister could easily do what her daughter's family likes." ”

But who knew that he actually thought that this method was excellent, and that it could be exchanged for the greatest benefit at the least cost. But you are my sister, and in my eyes you are like a jewel, and nothing can compare to it. I can't, let Aroo do it. ”

"Brother, Auntie...... It was willingly. ”

"There is everything in the General's Mansion that Auntie wants to protect."

Luo Rao rubbed next to her brother, like a kitten, "Brother, don't kneel, go back." ”

Gently touching Luo Rao's head, Luo An sighed, "Auntie, my brother will definitely work hard." The second half of the sentence didn't come out, he thought in his heart, brother, I will try to protect you, always, all the time.

"Just like my brother cares about Aro's feelings, Auntie also wants to care about her brother and cares about the General's Mansion, brother, you promise me, I beg you."

Luo An's hand on his sister's head paused, his mind was full of Auntie's "I beg you", what kind of desire made her say such a thing, and he found that he could no longer say no words. He can quarrel with his father to resist the inappropriateness of his decision, or he can protest his father's injustice by kneeling in the ancestral hall for a long time, but he can't refuse Ah Rao's gentle request.

After being silent for a long time, like a knife cutting his heart, the pain was severe, and Luo An said tremblingly, "Okay." ”
