Chapter 633: Go to Zhuge House again
September 189.
With the arrival of September, there is the chill of autumn, but it is not as early as the cold, and the temperature is the most comfortable.
Liu Zheng only took his own soldiers, as well as Zhou Yu and Sun Ce and a few other young people from the military academy, to Zhuge Jia, the county seat of Yangdu County, Langya County.
I plan to directly invite Zhuge Jin to study in the military academy in Yangzhou this time, and by the way, let the entire Zhuge family move to Yangzhou.
The Zhuge family is still somewhat famous in the local area, after all, Zhuge Liang's father and grandfather are people of some status, although the family is not a famous family, but it is also a big family in the small Yangdu County.
However, after the death of Zhuge Liang's father Zhuge Jue, this situation has changed somewhat.
There is no pillar in the family, and only a few children are left, so it is natural that they will be excluded by other big families in the county.
Although there was Zhuge Liang's uncle, he later received the news and rushed to worship his deceased eldest brother.
even agreed to adopt Zhuge Liang and a few other children, but Zhuge Xuan was not in Yangdu after all, and he needed to move his family to the place where Zhuge Xuan was, which was not an easy task.
Liu Zheng took his people to Yangdu County, and when he visited the Zhuge family again, he happened to catch up with Zhuge Liang's uncle Zhuge Xuan, who also came back and was ready to lead the Zhuge family to move their families out of here.
Zhuge Liang's uncle Zhuge Xuan was a minor official under Liu Biao in history, and later took refuge in Yuan Shu and succeeded Yuzhang Taishou under Yuan Shu's arrangement.
Yuzhang Taishou was originally Zhou Shu, and after Zhou Shu's death, Zhuge Xuan was the Taishou in Yuzhang, but because of the appearance of Liu Zheng, Yuzhang County was occupied in advance.
As a result, Zhuge Xuan's trajectory in history has changed a lot.
Originally, Zhuge Xuan was still a petty official under Liu Biao, and he was the county leader of a small county in Changsha.
Changsha originally belonged to Liu Biao, but after it was occupied by Liu Zheng, Zhuge Xuan also took refuge in Liu Zheng, but unfortunately Liu Zheng didn't know that he had Zhuge Xuan such a number one person under his account.
When Liu Zheng took Dian Wei, Zhou Yu, Sun Ce and others to visit Zhuge Jin's family again, he happened to catch up with Zhuge Xuan, who was lobbying Zhuge Jin's family. On the one hand, he wants to help the Zhuge family take care of the future, and on the other hand, he wants to take these people from the Zhuge family to live in Changsha.
It's just that when the family discussed this matter, there were some disagreements.
Zhuge Xuan proposed to sell his family property in Yangdu and move his family to Changsha County, but Zhuge Jin's stepmother did not agree to do so, after all, this is a place where he has lived for more than ten years, and it is always a little uncomfortable to leave suddenly.
Of course, the most important thing is that except for Zhuge Jin, who can stand on his own at the age of fifteen, the other children in the family are only eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest is even a few years old, so it is difficult to take care of themselves at such an age.
Only Zhuge Xuan, who is an uncle, takes care of them. But in this way, he had to move his family to Changsha County according to what Zhuge Xuan said.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, this time I came to take care of my brother's funeral, the most important thing is to take you to Changsha County to live together, when do you think it will be better to leave?"
As a little brother-in-law, Zhuge Xuan also respects this sister-in-law, although this woman only married her eldest brother later, but in any case, she is also the sister-in-law that Ming Media is marrying.
But this sister-in-law didn't plan to follow what Zhuge Xuan said, in his heart, Zhuge Xuan was just greedy for the money of the Zhuge family.
If she still stays in Yangdu County, the family property is still there, no matter what, she, who is a stepmother, also has some sources of livelihood, and she can also be the master of her own house, but if she listens to Zhuge Xuan's words and moves her family to Changsha County, everything will have to obey Zhuge Xuan, and when people are under the eaves, they will always have to look at Zhuge Xuan's face.
So this is the reason why Zhuge Liang's stepmother is reluctant to leave Yangdu.
"Second brother, it's not that I, who is a sister-in-law, don't want to leave Yangdu, but that Changsha County is unfamiliar with the people, and the family moved over, and I always feel a little strange."
"Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't worry, although I am not a big person, but now I also have an official and a half-position in Changsha County, and it is not a problem to take care of your family, if you don't want to leave, you have been staying in Yangdu County, although now Langya and Changsha belong to Lord Liu Zheng, I don't need to spend too long coming, but the sky is high and the road is far away, and I can't take care of your orphans and widows."
When Zhuge Xuan said this, he naturally spoke to his stepmother's heart. After all, there are still five children to raise at home. Even if you can make some income from relying on these fields, the consumption of the five children's daily life is still very large, and if you can let Zhuge Xuan help you, you can reduce a lot of burden anyway.
However, the stepmother was not so easy to move, she had an idea and continued to say to Zhuge Xuan.
"I don't think it's as good as this, I'm too old and really don't want to move, so I'll stay in Yangdu County to care for the elderly, uncle, how about you bring these children over and take care of them?"
Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang and others have always had no blood relationship with their stepmother, although there is a mother-son relationship in the eyes of their stepmother, they do not have that family affection. In this way, the stepmother will not pay much attention to the whereabouts and lives of Zhuge Liang and others.
Whether they stayed in Yangdu County or left with Zhuge Xuan, it didn't matter to the stepmother.
As soon as Zhuge Xuan heard his sister-in-law's words, he was smart enough to naturally understand what the other party meant, but he didn't say more, knowing that it was useless to say more, he could only sigh in his heart and agree.
"Well, that's the way it is."
After that, Zhuge Xuan planned to say goodbye and tell Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang and others to pack their luggage and leave in a few days.
But it happened that at this time, Liu Zheng brought someone to visit.
Of course, when Liu Zheng came to visit, he didn't go directly to see his stepmother, but went to find Zhuge Jin, because in Liu Zheng's opinion, now that Zhuge Jin's father is dead, Zhuge Jin, as the eldest son, has become the head of the family.
And Liu Zheng's purpose for coming this time was mainly because of Zhuge Jin, after all, Zhuge Liang was still too young. It's not worth Liu Zheng's big deal.
After making an announcement at the door, Xiao Si led Liu Zheng to find Zhuge Jin, who was studying in his room.
When he heard the servant say that someone was looking for him, he came out, and he was very surprised when he saw Liu Zheng. He has a good memory, and he recognized Liu Zheng at a glance as someone who came to his father's funeral a few months ago, and gave him a bag of money when he left, and this kindness has always been remembered in Zhuge Jin's heart.
Later, he also deliberately inquired about who Liu Zheng was, but with his ability, he naturally couldn't find out Liu Zheng's true identity, and later these days, their Zhuge family in Yangdu County was quite valued and helped by the county order, which made Zhuge Jin's smart little brain more and more curious about Liu Zheng.
