Dia Bird waited and waited, thinking that on the eve of the expedition, he still had to go to Grandma's, but when he saw that Da Da Erhu did not come back, he simply looked for it. When I arrived, I realized that Li Zhi was putting the finishing touches on Da Da Erhu's winter coat and letting Da Da Erhu wait on the side. She knew that she might not be able to come back in winter, so she asked people to make clothes for Da Da Erhu, because Da Da Erhu grew fast, and other places were fine, and her shoulders were a little tight, so she took advantage of the light, full of warmth, holding a steel needle, and stretching the silk thread.

Dia Niao was surprised when he entered the door, and he only opened his mouth with one sentence, which made Li Zhi laugh angrily: "In order to buy our son's heart, what about indiscriminately pretending to be a female celebrity in mathematics?" ”

Li Zhi glared at him.

Dia Bird asked people to bring food and told them to have a lot of tigers. When Ta Ta Erhu talked about the trouble caused by the two national weapons, one long and one short, Dia Bird smiled. He didn't allow the tiger to come back, and said softly: "The blade is not a tool for self-defense, although there is a national weapon, how can it be a national weapon, let them accompany you to make contributions." If you carry the national weapon, you will not dare to advance lightly, this is also a warning to you......" He stared at the tada tiger, and the one standing in front of him seemed to be the young man's self, but he didn't jump off back then.

He muttered in his heart: "My child, you are the national weapon." ”

Then he remembered something, called someone to come, went to fetch it, and did not make much effort to get a hollow long handle.

Dia Bird took it in his hand first, took the Dingxia long blade in his hand, removed the tail blade, twisted it in the tail, and actually hid the long blade in the long rod, and then inserted the short one into the top in the same way, forming a long soldier with a hidden mechanism, and the short soldier on the top can also put back the round sheath...... Da Da Erhu really didn't think that the weapons could be assembled like this, and he was sure that the little mother sent it to him, and it was secretly instructed by Abba, otherwise, how could he prepare this long pole and connect it intimately? He was so excited that he knelt down and pleaded loudly, "Abba." Abba. You put the long one on your head, isn't that a horizontal sword? Put the long one on your head. ”

Li Zhi glanced at it distractedly, and blamed: "Can you explain it to the child, don't pretend to be profound." ”

Dia Bird said "Okay", threw it to Da Da Erhu, and said with a smile: "Isn't this profound, the truth that is long and easy to fold is not shallow?" Why is the horizontal knife not popular in the world? It's easy to fold. Use wisdom as a blade, bravely hide wisdom, and not destroy the national weapon. Hu, think about Abba's words, right? ”

When Di Huotuo and a few young sons came back from school, they had already heard that Brother Ah was back, and they were running fast to find the tiger, and they made a mess as soon as they came.

It just so happened that Li Zhi collected the needle and thread and gave Brother Qiu a black coat to Da Erhu.

Dia Bird took the initiative to take it, and said in the crook of his arm: "Come back and wear it again, Abba will put it away." The army will distribute sheep fur and cotton clothes according to the weather, and preparations are already underway. ”

Li Zhi suddenly broke out: "Is the sheep fur warmer than the mink bear fur?" ”

Dia Bird smiled and said, "Don't you still have cotton clothes, you let Ah Hu say it himself." ”

Let Ah Hu say that he must feel uncomfortable wearing such a valuable fur coat in the army.

Li Zhi cherishes her son, although she is supporting, but there is a nameless fire against Dia Bird, and the fire has not completely erupted, Da Da Erhu shook her arm and whispered, "Grandma." This robe...... Black. It's black. Abba is going to keep it for me. ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with the black?" ”

Da Da Erhu said: "There is law and discipline in the army, there is no black in winter, and if you can be white, you must wear white." ”

Dia Niao glanced at Li Zhi with emotion, and whispered, "Got it." The child is afraid that you will be sad, and he keeps staring, but he is reluctant to tell you. ”

Li Zhi burst into tears.

Dia Bird put his hand on the back of her hand and whispered, "Don't be sad. Clean up, take some children to the temple to crown Ah Hu, and wait until the day of triumphant return to the teacher, Lone will officially crown him, and then announce to the world that the eldest son of my Dia Bird has reached adulthood, can participate in political affairs, can also lead troops to fight, and can also sacrifice heaven and earth on behalf of his father. ”

Jongmyo is on the outskirts of the city.

Not all the younger brothers and sisters at home can ride horses, and once they grind, they don't know when the time comes, and they are very afraid that they will not be able to return to the camp on time, so they stuff food in their mouths for a while, stand up, and say vaguely: "Let's go." ”

Li Zhi did not hesitate.

She wanted the tiger to stay at home for a while, but she knew the bird better, and even understood why the bird had crowned the tiger in a hurry.

Crowning means that the tiger has reached adulthood.

The eldest son of the adult, after being granted military power, official positions, and the town festival, has already been justified.

She looked at Diao with emotional eyes, and hesitated slightly: "Ah Bird." Is it appropriate to crown a tiger? Di Bao and You Jian are both over fifteen years old, and they have not yet been crowned, and everyone asked, didn't you say that it is not too late to wait for them to be crowned when they reach twenty, just give them enough time to study? ”

Dia Bird was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Once they are crowned, they will be given a substantial status, and they will be given the treatment of Zhang Jing and above, fiefs and fiefs. Ah Hu is different. ”

Several younger siblings didn't know if they understood or not, and shouted loudly: "It's not fair. I want Ah Hu to also be Zhang Jing. ”

But Ta Ta Erhu was very excited, and said loudly, "Yes." The sons and daughters should sit up step by step from the new pawn, sweep the world for their father, and then come back to take the top prize, the sons do not need their father to give a penny in vain, and the father will raise the sons and daughters, which is the best gift. Erchen ......"

His face flushed.

Li Zhi couldn't help but say, "Seeing that you are so excited that you can still catch your breath?" ”

After all, she grabbed Ta Ta Erhu's hand and squeezed it hard, and when Dia Bird hugged and carried it, and hooked it with her feet, and brought three or four younger brothers and sisters to the front, she said in Ta Ta Erhu's ear, "What are you yelling for?" Your Abba crowned you so that you could lead the army justifiably in the future, and so that you could share his worries. What starts from scratch? As the eldest son, you must learn not to lie, once you shout outside, you will not be able to do it in the future, you will be laughed at. ”

The tiger's body trembled slightly with excitement.

He said in a loud voice, "Erchen can do it." Definitely. Abba is Erchen's confidant, and he can know in advance what Erchen is thinking. Since the age of five, Erchen has been dancing in the morning, sleepless late at night, practicing civil and military skills, and he must have a meritorious career that is not achieved by others. ”

Li Zhi said helplessly: "Silly boy." ”

When she saw Dia Bird looking back, she seemed to be interested in Ta Ta Erhu's words, so she blamed Dia Bird again: "It's all your Abba who taught you." ”

The group arrived at the Jongmyo under the escort of the Praetorian Guards, and it was already midnight, and one of the children was already asleep.

Dia Niao wrapped him in his own cloak, held it in his arms, looked at the steps of the temple, looked back at the full moon, and said to a few children who were also a little sleepy: "Today is the crown of Brother Er, and the other day will also crown you, and the day of the crowning is the time when you grow up, and from then on you will bear the burden for the country and the family. ”

He walked up, and several children walked behind him.

The remaining one of them turned around, stared at the tiger, and said faintly, "I want to practice darts...... . . ”

Li Zhi leaned over and stared straight at him, wondering what he was doing with a serious expression, but talking nonsense.

Di Camel Camel trembled, turned around and ran.

Li Zhi was still puzzled.

Da Erhu smiled and said: "Ah Camel wants to take advantage of me to leave, claiming to be practicing martial arts, and wants to leave all my darts, but before you can say it, you scared him away." ”

When I arrived at the temple, the patriarch was not there, and the temple called people to light up the lights and candles one by one. Dia Bird asked people to put offerings to the heavens and the earth and ancestors, and took a few children to kowtow to their fathers and ancestors first, and then called the Ta Da Er Tiger, first adding a cloth crown made of black linen material, indicating that he had the qualifications to participate in politics, and then adding a leather cloth made of white deerskin, indicating that he would have to serve in the military to defend the territory of Sheji; Finally, a plain hat with red and black was added, indicating that he could participate in the sacrificial ceremony, and then told the ancestors of heaven and earth: "Although the eldest man is fourteen years old, he has few strange ambitions, and now he voluntarily enlists in the army as a pawn, and he is relieved in his lonely heart. ”

It is only when the temple is talking to the ancestors that the living ginseng is not around.

He also said: "Lone and the ancestors have made an appointment, and the elders should be crowned at this age from now on, so as to show adulthood, to share the worries of the father, and to sharpen the body and mind." ”

This is what Li Zhi knows.

What a messy reason, this sentence is true.

Coming out of the temple, it was getting late, and Ta Da Erhu wanted to return to the camp at night and told Dia Bird to know.

Diao agreed, saying, "In the army, you should abide by military law." ”

Seeing that Ta Da Erhu was about to leave, he stood on the steps, waved his arms violently, and roared: "A good man should run rampant in the world, let my father be proud." ”

The horse-made Lu is fast.

The arrows flickered and disappeared in the night, and with a wave of his hand, Dia Bird let the guards take the children first, wrapped himself in a cloak, and sat down on the steps.

The gloomy night loomed.

He sat there and whispered, "You can't make a great deal without suffering." Hugh is the cruelty of the father......"

At some point, he found Li Zhi standing beside him and asked in astonishment, "Why didn't you go first?" ”

Li Zhi said: "I'm afraid you will cry." ”

Dia Bird wrinkled his face, as if the muscles on his face were half under his control, and he recovered slowly, and it was like angina, and the pain was unrelieved.

Li Zhi said faintly: "Ah Bird." Don't be sad. Let's go. ”

Diao said, "I am proud, how can I be sad." I thought about it, it's rare to accompany you on weekdays, and when I'm fifty years old, I'll let Ah Hu become a successor...... I take you to live like a fairy. How about going to Huashan? I'm still the head of Huashan. In the future, I will also consider it a tradition. ”

Li Zhi asked him, "Is Huashan yours?" ”

Dia Bird smiled and said: "Not now, but sooner or later, Jingkang betrayed me in Dongxia, for me, the country is a lot more difficult, but it is not a good thing, I will have no moral burden in the future." Since it is said that we Yong people have not been separated since ancient times, why can't we have the heart of sitting on the four seas? He also said: "I can't live Huashan, and after I die, I will let Ah Hu bury me in Si, my Ah Hu, I am ruthless to send him to the battlefield at the age of fourteen, come back from the battlefield, and the next training, in the end he will become a generation of Tianjiao, even more than me, and the future grandson will also be trained at the age of fourteen, we will be strong from generation to generation, and Jingkang will be weaker from generation to generation." There will be a day when I will dominate the world in Dongxia. ”

Li Zhi said lightly: "Ambition is endless." You didn't have those ideas a few years ago, did you? ”

Diao's bird quibbled, "I'm not ambitious. Loneliness is ambition. Lonely always has to set up lofty ambitions for himself, and he won't let him go on the next journey after one journey? The grassland desert belongs to me in Dongxia, do you want to let the lonely ambition stumble, hug left and right, and go to the dogs and horses? No, lonely will not, never, Huashan has been the hero of the world since ancient times, I love it, those who have said Huashan will win the world, do not die in Huashan, and will never give up. ”

Husband and wife, you look at me, I look at you, look at each other and smile.
