"Brother Zhu!"

When he saw that milk swallow rushing up to hug his little figure like a forest, even if Zhu Tingfang was hit by a heavy wound again without preparation, his face inevitably twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but hiss lightly and gasped, but just now Zhu Ying's ambiguous words, he finally understood.

It turned out that it wasn't the liar who didn't know where he came from and said that he was pregnant with his child, but Xiao Cheng!

Zhu Ying had hugged her eldest brother once because of a long absence, only to find that she was injured, so she regretted it, and at this moment she found that Xiao Cheng was exactly the same as herself, she was about to pounce on it and bring it back, but she didn't want to be pulled back by Zhang Shou, and then she heard Zhang Shou say softly: "Don't worry, that kid is very smart, he has let go." ”

Seeing that Xiao Guoran quickly let go of his hand, took two steps back and asked timidly, Brother Zhu, are you injured, Zhu Ying couldn't help but look sideways at Zhang Shou, admiring Zhang Shou's observation and delighted with Big Brother's eyes. Dare to love this child is as sharp as her. It is worthy of the child that the eldest brother decided to adopt!

Zhu Tingfang didn't expect that Zhu Ying was triumphantly treating others with himself, and he was also a little surprised by Xiao Cheng's reaction, but what was even more surprising was that he had arranged a life for Xiao Cheng clearly and secretly, how could people be in Zhao Guogong's Mansion now? He simply squatted down and didn't answer the little guy's question just now, but asked directly, "Who brought you here?" ”

"Mr. Liu's family suddenly disappeared, and I could only go through the wall every day to find ......"

Listening to Xiao Cheng stammering a lot, Zhu Tingfang only heard a rough idea, until Zhang Shou interjected next to him and introduced the situation concisely, he learned that his teacher not only suffered the pain of losing his wife, but also owed a large amount of debt for the treatment of his wife, and was forced to leave the old residence.

He took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down, then he looked at Xiao Cheng gently and said, "Chengcheng, since Master Liu's family is not here, will you live in my house in the future?" Don't worry, I'll take good care of you. ”

However, he originally thought that the little guy would definitely agree, but he didn't expect Xiao Cheng to look at him for a while, and finally shook his head: "Brother Zhu, Brother Zhang was worried that I would be alone during the Chinese New Year, so he took me from home." Usually I am able to take care of myself. Besides, Brother Zhang also found me a job, and I don't need to be supported by others! ”

When Zhu Tingfang heard this, he immediately turned his head sideways to look at Zhang Shou, feeling a little angry in his heart. Just such a small child, you let him live alone? Also, What does it mean to get a job? Xiao Cheng's little figure, what can he do? But the next moment, Zhu Ying's words on behalf of Zhang Shou made him a little speechless.

"Big brother, Ah Shou is thoughtful! Isn't it the blacksmith and carpenter shop he has people open next door? He asked Zheng Dang and Yang Hao from the village to go over there to help guard the door, and accompany Xiao Cheng to study together at night. Xiao Cheng went to the Banshan Hall of Guozijian to do chores during the day, and those prisoners had nothing to do to teach him 300 Tang poems. You came back just in time, he already knows how to memorize it, but the meaning hasn't been thoroughly read yet! ”

Zhang Shou was able to arrange for Xiao Cheng to go to Guozijian to do miscellaneous labor?

Zhu Tingfang didn't have to think about it to know that such a thing could never be done casually by Zhang Shou. It's not that he hasn't stayed in the Guozi Prison, and he thinks that if he wants to, he can even become the head of the Frank Hall. However, he was not enthusiastic about the atmosphere of the small circle of Guozijian, and he graduated from Guozijian in less than three years.

Therefore, he knows that among those scholars, some are stubborn, some are arrogant, some are humane, and some are jealous...... Although there are a few people with good knowledge, they often keep to themselves, and only regard Guozijian as an ordinary stop on the way to the official road, and high-ranking officials such as the priest and wine priest are often everything and mud, and they cannot be offended on both sides, so no matter what rules and regulations they want to change, it is difficult.

Don't look at it as an insignificant handyman, but just with Xiao Cheng's age, it is unlikely to pass. To be able to do this, Zhang Shou must have spent a lot of effort.

He glanced at Xiao Cheng, who was holding his head high and waiting for a boastful expression on his face, and suddenly felt that although he was very good to the little guy in the past, he ignored it, Xiao Cheng, a child who had experienced such a tragic past since he was a child, needed a good atmosphere the most. Although he doesn't have to think about the inmates in Banshan Hall to know what most of their personalities are, they can get along awkwardly in the end.

Much better than the little ones being alone at home! Therefore, he sighed deeply, and finally said softly: "Okay, Chengcheng, you can continue to live at home, I will visit you often." When I bring the teacher and your sister Zhou back in the future, you will have company again. ”

Seeing Xiao Cheng's eyebrows fluttering and agreeing, Zhu Tingfang pulled him inside with one hand. When he returned to Qing'an Hall again, he saw that there was a person waiting at the door of the hall, who else was it not the second brother Zhu Tingjie? Seeing that the man ran over like a gust of wind, but when he was still three or five steps away from him, he suddenly stopped, and then looked at him with a sneering face, and he suddenly became angry.

"Second brother, when I left, I asked you to take care of the house, and that's how you took care of it?"

Here it comes! Zhu Er wailed in his heart, but he knew his eldest brother's temper very well, not only did he not dare to speak up at the moment, but he also cautiously bowed his head and apologized: "Brother, I already know that I am wrong, and I have also sinned against my grandmother and sister......"

When he said this, he suddenly raised his head and quickly glanced at Zhang Shou, and decided to quickly hug a thick thigh again: "I have been studying hard in the Banshan Hall of Guozijian these days, and I have never caused trouble, I have really changed it, I don't believe you ask my brother-in-law ......"

"What brother-in-law!" Zhu Tingfang interrupted Zhu Er's words in annoyance, but then he only heard Zhu Ying snort from behind, and he immediately knew that his sister was dissatisfied, and it was simply helpless and funny at the moment. He could only glare at Zhu Er fiercely, then turned around and bowed slightly at Zhang Shou, trying to explain his attitude just now, at least don't let Zhu Ying be angry with himself.

"Dr. Zhang, you and Yingying are not officially married yet, and it is not appropriate for both families to spread the title of Erlang......

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Ying said angrily: "Big brother, what are you fuss about, even Mother Li in front of her grandmother has called Aunt Ah Shou!" What's wrong with calling it, are our Zhu family still afraid of others gossiping? Besides, you keep saying that Dr. Zhang, so raw, you will murmur in your heart when you are heard! Second brother, are you right? ”

Seeing that Zhu Ying's words actually refuted Zhu Tingfang and affirmed himself, Zhu Er, who enjoyed this treatment for the first time in his life, was suddenly overjoyed. He immediately nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and echoed: "Yes, yes, of course!" A family doesn't talk to two families! ”

Dare to love that except for himself and his father, who are fighting outside, all the people in the family have already accepted Zhang Shou? With such an understanding, Zhu Tingfang simply has a feeling that he has not been away from home for more than half a year, but has been gone for ten or eight years, and things are not people. But when he entered the palace today, he also saw the emperor's attitude towards Zhang Shou, and he could only sigh for the umpteenth time in his heart.

"I'll clean you up when I get back!" Leaving a cruel word to Zhu Er, Zhu Tingfang strode in.

And because of his words, Zhu Er panicked, hurried to Zhu Ying's side and whispered: "Yingying, even if it's for the sake of me helping my brother-in-law, you must help me when you turn around." ”

He was afraid that Zhu Ying's strength alone was not enough, and said to Zhang Shou, "I have done my homework well these days, even if I haven't done it completely, it's because I can't do it." Brother-in-law, you have to say good things for me in front of my grandmother and mother, and let them take care of my eldest brother! You know, Xiao Cheng can memorize 300 Tang poems these days, and I am the number one hero! ”

Guozijian is on vacation, and everyone else has gotten rid of that little evil star, only pity him for Xiao Cheng to tell 300 Tang poems alone!

Zhu Er's voice was neither loud nor small, to make sure that his eldest brother could also hear it, however, to his disappointment, Zhu Tingfang did not say anything at all, neither looked back nor spoke, and Zhu Ying just smiled at him, made a grimace and strode after him. Fortunately, in the end, Zhang Shou glanced at him and gave him a promise.

"Don't worry, if the prodigal son doesn't change his money, your eldest brother won't do anything to you." He paused, then smiled and said, "After all, he's too busy to take care of himself right now. ”

Hey, the eldest brother will actually take care of himself? Didn't they come back from a victory this time? Is there anything else he doesn't know? A lot of stories flashed in Zhu Er's mind in an instant, including the plots that often occur when watching various dramas, and he even secretly looked forward to the eldest brother bringing back a sister-in-law with an extraordinary status.

As long as the eldest brother, who has always been respected at home and outside, makes a fuss, he can live a much more relaxed life, and he can use his own brains for marriage, and he doesn't have to resign himself to fate...... Of course, who wants to marry him, that's the question......

As soon as Zhang Shou saw Zhu Er's chaotic eyes, he knew what the future second uncle was thinking, but he didn't break it. Compared with Zhu Tingfang, who was born as an heir, Zhu Er's consistent life is too easy and too casual, even if it is the so-called hard study during this period, it can't ensure whether it is three minutes of popularity.

When Zhang Shou followed behind Zhu Er, the last one entered Qing'an Hall, and saw that Zhu Ying had already sent out Li's mother, Jiang's mother, Yutang Yulan and other girls in a few words, and Zhu Tingfang handed over Xiao Cheng to them first, he knew that Zhu Tingfang didn't plan to hide it - because Zhu Ying obviously didn't plan to let him hide it anymore.

So, compared with Mrs. Tai and Jiu Niang, who had already guessed, Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, who were already completely insiders, Zhu Er, who was unprepared, was greatly impacted next. He first saw that the eldest brother was urged by his grandmother to take off his outer robe, jacket and middle coat, revealing his upper body wrapped in white silk, and after those white silks were removed, he saw all kinds of hideous and terrifying wounds.

At that moment, Zhu Er even felt that his scalp was numb, and he had an urge to turn around and run away. Although there were rumors of the disappearance of the eldest brother before, but since the news came, he did not take the so-called defeat to heart, and he felt that the eldest brother, as a commander of the army, had to fight with his subordinates, and it was impossible for him to charge into battle in person, so he had no real sense of fighting.

But at this moment, for the first time in his life, he realized that fighting a war is not a play in a play, let alone a child's play, it is really going to hurt people and even kill people! He knows how powerful the eldest brother is, but he came back scarred like this, doesn't that mean that it was really dangerous before?

And what is even more unbelievable for Zhu Er is that Zhu Ying accompanied Mrs. Tai to check the injuries on Zhu Tingfang's body, and at the same time told about the experience of his eldest brother's battle, when it came to the two paragraphs of bait and prisoner of war, Rao felt that he was mentally prepared, and he couldn't help but shout: "How is this possible, is Dad crazy?" Big brother is his own son! ”

is still the son that my father has always been proud of and values the most! If it were him, Dad would throw him out as bait, and that would be pretty much the same!

"What are you yelling about?" Mrs. Tai lowered her face and drank a sentence, seeing that Zhu Er suddenly closed her mouth, but her face was clearly full of disbelief and disbelief, so she smiled and said, "Repeated deception and defeat, luring the enemy deep, this is the most common trick to lead the army to fight, but think about it, since you have lost the battle, if you want to lure the enemy, you will have to die, and the one who dies is not your own person?" ”

"There are too few people who die, and the defeat is not like a battle, there are too many dead people, and the morale of the army is greatly reduced, maybe it will become a real defeat if it is fighting. Moreover, do you think that those baits throughout the ages, those main generals who personally carried out the defeat were unscathed, and they easily played the play well? What's more, your father has not led the army for many years, and his head is against the yang and the yin, if your eldest brother doesn't do this kind of thing, who will do it? ”

Mrs. Tai suddenly aggravated her tone, and seeing that Zhu Er's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, she personally rewrapped Zhu Tingfang's wound, and put on a middle coat for him, ignoring the grandfather's somewhat frightened refusal, and sighed deeply while buttoning it.

"I have more than one son, but why do I leave the other two to fend for themselves? Your two uncles actually went to the battlefield in Ruizong anyway. But one is cowardly and afraid of war, the other is defeated in successive battles, if it weren't for their eldest brother who washed away their shame with blood, fire and military exploits, even if the Queen Mother and I are sisters of the same mother, the Zhu family would not be where it is today. ”

"The Queen Mother and I also have other brothers, but they can't do anything, so let's be their rich idlers, don't dislike the lack of power, don't dislike the lack of wealth, who makes them have no merit, let alone hard work?"

"So, Da Lang is back like this now, I am very sad and sad, but I am more relieved and proud, because the Zhu family has produced another husband who is enough to support the family business."

Hearing this, Zhu Er's mood became even more depressed. Anyway, it is impossible for him to beat his eldest brother in this life......

Seeing that Zhu Tingfang was a little surprised by Mrs. Tai's excessive praise, he hurriedly said that he didn't dare, the grandfather and grandson were sighing at each other, and there was a Zhu Ying chattering, where did Zhang Shou, who noticed the change in Zhu Er's expression, not know that if the second young master couldn't look a little, he was likely to make another mistake. But at this moment, he saw Jiu Niang suddenly come to him and Zhu Er.

"Erlang, you are the heir of the Zhu family, and you can't be compared to outsiders. If you don't want to be just a rich idler, think about what you will do in the future. As long as you think about it, I persuaded my mother before, whatever support you want, I will give you whatever support you want! Otherwise, look at your uncles and uncles, you have to really think about those days, and no one will stop you. ”
