When everything was finished, the three of them passed through several courtyards under the leadership of the temple supervisor and entered a quiet small courtyard, in which the pine pavilions were like canopies, and a few plum trees bloomed in the warm breeze of the winter afternoon, adding a dazzling color to the land that had experienced a winter.

The three of them patronized and admired the scenery in the courtyard, and it was not until two long-standing young men bowed to Li Min that they found that several people came out to greet them, accompanied by a thin old monk.

"Sister Min, do you still know us?" The two said in unison.

"You are Xiao Zuo'er and Xiao You'er? I haven't seen you for a few years, but I've grown so tall! ”

"Sister Min, you can't call us that anymore, after the first month, we are all fifteen years old, and we are already manly husbands, we have already thought about it, after my brother-in-law comes back this time, we will follow us to Liangzhou to join the army, and from then on, we will be shrouded in horse leather, step on Qilian, and destroy the Khitan robbers with my brother-in-law."

"Oh, come on, you guys, look like noodles, don't talk about pulling the bow, I think you can't even hold a trumpet knife, it's better to put away the heart of the army, and it is the right way to study your homework and gain fame."

The two teenagers raised their voices and said, "Sister Min, you underestimate us, let's show you." After saying that, the two immediately put on a stance, and it seemed that they were going to fight a boxing technique.

"Okay, okay, Zuo'er You'er, how did I explain to you when I went out, showing off in front of General Liu and your sister Min is purely a class axe, and I don't know how high or low I will let you go back."

“…… Yes, sister...... we will listen to you and stop talking. ”

"Sister-in-law, that's as serious as you said, these two little brothers have this self-motivated heart, I think it's still very good, and the two brothers are so handsome, it's too late for me to envy." Liu Fan interjected.

With Liu Fan's encouragement, the two teenagers were overjoyed, they had already heard the name of this Liu Duwei from their sister.

The county lord of Jingning said with a smile, "General Liu, don't praise them, what's the use of being handsome, there is no power to bind the chicken, there is no half-frame of poetry and books in the chest, and people like General Liu are the dragons and phoenixes among people." ”

After the county lord of Jingning finished speaking, Liu Fan said again, "There is a saying in our hometown that says, 'It is better to bully the white beard than to bully the poor youth.'" In the end, there must be a day when the dragon wears the phoenix, and I don't believe that the pants will wear the hole. The meaning of this sentence is that it is better to look down on the old man who has no money than on the poor young man, because the future of the young man is limitless.' If young people work hard, sooner or later, they will soar to prosper, and they don't believe that they will always wear torn pants all their lives. ’”

"This sentence is the same for the teenager who has not yet succeeded, I still hope that my sister-in-law will encourage the two little brothers more in the future."

Listening to Liu Fan's words, the two teenagers were so excited that they couldn't speak, there was only one thought in their minds, they only felt that this person was their Bole in this life, if Liu Fan asked the two of them to go up the sword mountain and go down the sea of fire immediately, the two would rush up without hesitation.

Seeing the excited appearance of the two younger brothers, the county lord of Jingning was also surprised, although this Liu Fan looked sincere, but there was always something surprising, today he said to the two younger brothers without being busy arguing between right and wrong, but it is certain that this person just a few words, the encouragement to the two younger brothers is better than the usual long lesson of the father.

The old monk next to him shouted a Buddha horn and said in a low voice, "This benefactor is young, but there is a lot of meaning in a few words, Lord Jingning, you haven't introduced guests to me yet!" ”

The county lord of Jingning suddenly said, "Yes, yes, it's the fault of the concubine, this meeting is in a hurry, I forgot to introduce you to each other, I'm really sorry!" ”

According to the introduction of the lord of Jingning, this old monk is the abbot of the Daci'en Temple, who is famous for his Buddhism, and the master who led his party here is the master of the prison and the enlightenment, and a pair of twin teenagers are the two younger brothers of the lord of Jingning - Huang Zuo and Huang You, and a woman, the lord of Jingning only said that he was his sister and son, and he came to the incense with him today. ”

Liu Fan saw that this girl named He'er had bright eyes and bright teeth, peach smile Li Yan, although she was young, she was beautiful, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the country was beautiful and fragrant, and she was full of grace and luxury, and even Liu Fan seemed to be overshadowed after comparing it with the Jingning County Lord, who was shocked when he first saw him. I had a feeling in my heart, "This He'er girl is definitely not simple." ”

After the introduction of the county lord of Jingning, Liu Fan and his entourage formally met with the two masters of Yin and Wuwu and the girl of He'er, and then sat down in the hospitality room under the humility of Master Yin, and under the Zhang Luo of Master Wu, several small novices immediately offered tea soup and rice, Liu Fan did not care about the eating appearance of Jing, Huang Zuo, and Huang You, not to mention how elegant Ling Han, Li Min, Jingning County Lord and the girl with He'er ate so elegantly, they ate five large bowls of rice by themselves, and even the tea soup that Xiao Shami added in time was also a cup.

When the food was almost finished, he smiled under the stunned gaze of Huang Zuo, Huang You and others, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've been in the military for a long time, and the meal is indecent, which makes you laugh." ”

Ling Han and the county lord of Jingning both know more or less about some of the situations in the military, Li Min is even from the military, and she is the same as Liu Fan in Liangzhou, regardless of whether she eats or not, but she has been living a beautiful life before the age of sixteen, and as soon as she enters this circle, she involuntarily returns to her previous style of life.

In the silence, the He'er girl who was sitting between Master Yin and the Lord of Jingning had probably never seen such a rude man, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Let the girl laugh, in the next coarse person, I don't have any education, I don't pay much attention to etiquette and regulations, I just know that I can only go into battle to kill the enemy when I am full, or you will talk here first, I will go and appreciate the ancient buildings of this Great Mercy and Grace Temple?" As he spoke, he was about to stand up and retire.

"Brother Liu, I'll go with you." Ling Han was also about to get up and said.

Miss He'er immediately stood up and said, "General Liu, I'm really sorry, He'er didn't mean to laugh at you at all, I heard Sister Jingning say that you are a pillar-like figure in the army, and you have many wounds left on the battlefield for the country, and you have made great contributions to the war against the Khitan State this year, and Xiang Xingying Yanyan defeated the Khitan army of 200,000; Even Sister Min'er is also a role model for our daughter, who is only two years older than me, and dares to charge into battle in the army of ten thousand horses; Not to mention Sister Han'er, I heard my mother talk about your name when I was very young, and my mother promised me that I must introduce me to you......"

"It's a pity that my mother didn't fulfill her promise and left me, three years ago my brother-in-law died again, it may be that my mother and brother left me early, so that I lost my teaching, so that I inadvertently hurt General Liu you, and today I also heard Sister Jingning say that you want to come to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple to incense, knowing that you are all the world's talents, so I took the liberty to come to meet, I hope that General Liu and Min'er, Han'er two sisters will forgive He'er's unintentional mistakes." As he spoke, he bowed and saluted the three of them.

Liu Fan hurriedly got up and returned the other party's salute deeply, "It's as serious as the girl He'er said, I don't dare to sit down with you and talk about it, although I have been in private school for a few years, and I have also presented two poems to the world through my mouth, but in the strengths of the next, in terms of things, arithmetic, celestial phenomena, etc., I don't understand the rhetoric of the article at all, let alone the profound Dharma, so I am afraid of making a fool of myself in the public, so I want to take advantage of the smile of the girl and take the opportunity to slip away, to put it bluntly, it is the girl who has suffered for me, It's not that you apologize to me, but that I should apologize to you, please don't have any burden in your heart. ”

"Sister He'er, don't let this person's rude appearance be deceived, in fact, he has a lot of twists and turns in his heart, and if you are not careful, you may fall into his evil deeds. Besides, don't say that you laugh at him in the army, even if you kick him twice in the face, he won't care, he is a person who crawled out of the pile of dead people, and if he can survive, even if it is a life chosen by Lord Yama, these little things are nothing in his eyes, and they will disappear as soon as the wind blows, where will he be angry and turn his face because of this? ”
