Chapter 2 Planning
"My Shuang'er, let Weiniang take a look." Cao Shuang was eating the food sent by Xu Nu on the bed, when he heard someone calling him outside. I knew from Xu Nu that this was Cao Shuang's mother, Zhang. Cao Shuang hurriedly put down the food in his hand, got out of bed and saluted the visitor, "Meet your mother." Zhang hurriedly helped Cao Shuang up, "Child, there is no need to make such a big gift at the beginning of the injury. Zhang's blame was full of love, which made Cao Shuang's heart warm.
At this time, Cao Zhen and Zhang's only have one son, Cao Shuang, Cao Shuang is naturally Zhang's heart, and he loves him very much. On weekdays, Cao Shuang is a treasure in the family, and Zhang is afraid of flying in his hand, and he is afraid of melting in his mouth. Just like Cao Shuang's accident this time, the family keeper who took care of the stable was almost killed. Zhang cried and hugged Cao Shuang in his arms, and Cao Shuang was almost out of breath. Cao Shuang wiped away Zhang's tears with his immature little hands, "Mother, don't cry anymore." It's not good, it's not good, it's not beautiful to cry anymore. Hearing Cao Shuang's milky comfort, Zhang's tears broke into laughter.
The Zhang family stayed in Cao Shuang's room for more than an hour and left, after all, there were still many things waiting for the Zhang family, the housewife, to deal with in the entire Cao Mansion. Before leaving, Zhang told Xu Nu and Li Nu to take care of Cao Shuang, and Li Nu was the woman in green who went to Zhang's just now.
The next day, Cao Shuang went to school in a private school early. With the continuous growth of Cao Cao's power, there are more and more generals under Cao Cao, and the descendants of these generals also need to study, so Cao Cao set up a private school in the city of Xudu and on the side of Sikong Mansion for the descendants of the generals of the Cao clan and other generals to study and enlighten. Cao Shuang met many descendants of Cao's generals here.
After getting out of the private school, Cao Shuang sat on the carriage and looked curiously at the scenery in Xudu City. Looking at all kinds of people on the street, Cao Shuang leaned on the cushions in the carriage, squinting his eyes and pretending to sleep. After a while, the carriage arrived at Cao's mansion. After Cao Shuang visited his mother Zhang, he returned to his small courtyard and lay on the couch, chattering and thinking. This was at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although Cao Cao unified the north, but generally speaking, it was still a troubled time. In the troubled world where people are not as good as dogs, what can I do? Looking at his young body, Cao Shuang's scalp was numb, and he kept scratching his scalp, "It seems that it's time to wash your hair." ”
Cao Shuang gets up an hour early every day, goes to the martial arts training ground to run, and practices sit-ups and push-ups. He did this not only to adapt to the body, but also to strengthen the physique. Every day, Cao Shuang's attendant Li Cong followed his six-year-old master to do strange exercises every day, and he was miserable. After getting out of the private school, Cao Shuang also went to the martial arts training ground to exercise. In just a few months, Cao Shuang's appetite has increased greatly, and he has lost a lot of weight compared to before, but he is more lean, and he is much taller than his peers. Although the Zhang family felt sorry for Cao Shuang, he couldn't resist the request of his precious son, so he could only go with Cao Shuang, but the food in the house was obviously much better than before.
In the fourteenth year of Jian'an, after the defeat of Chibi, Cao Cao led his army back to Xudu. Cao Shuang's father, Cao Zhen, also returned to Xudu with the army. In the hall of Cao's mansion, Cao Shuang met his father in this era for the first time - Cao Zhen. Cao Zhenchang is tall and mighty, and his two sword eyebrows and a pair of big eyes look even more powerful. In Cao Shuang's opinion, Cao Zhenchang is still relatively handsome. Cao Zhen held Cao Shuang in his arms, "I haven't seen you for a few months, let my father see if Shuang'er has grown." Cao Shuang snuggled in his father's arms, feeling that his father's chest was so strong and warm. In his previous life, Cao Shuang had not returned home to see his parents for many years in order to be able to gain a foothold in the metropolis. The reunion of Cao Zhen's family reminded Cao Shuang of his parents in his previous life, and he didn't know if they were doing well.
Cao Fu was immersed in the joy of his master's return home, and Cao Shuang pestered his father Cao Zhen to talk about things on the battlefield. Cao's 830,000 troops were wiped out in Chibi, and Cao Cao returned in a hurry. Cao Cao's defeat this time cast a shadow over Cao's army. Although this defeat did not hurt the vitality of the Cao family, it inevitably left a pretext for some restless elements in the DPRK, and the pressure of the Cao group at this time came from the court more than the enemy. When Cao Zhen said this, his face was full of worry. Having followed Cao Cao since he was a child, Cao Zhen knew that his father faced far more pressure from the court than his opponents. Looking at Cao Zhen's face full of worry, Zhang originally wanted to comfort him, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Cao Shuang's immature voice, "Father, don't worry. My grandfather has been galloping across the field for many years, and a small failure is nothing to my grandfather. Hearing his son comforting himself, Cao Shuang swept away the worry on his face, "Shuang'er, this is reasonable." ”
At this time, Cao Shuang also thought a lot in his heart, with the protection of his father and grandfather, he could naturally walk sideways. But Cao Zhen and Cao Cao can't protect him for a lifetime, and who will support him after Cao Cao and Cao Zhen die. What's more, many years later, he, Cao Shuang, has to support the burden of the entire Cao Group, and he will finally face everything by himself, and he will face Sima Yi, whose skills are on par with Zhuge Liang, who is almost a demon. Although he has nearly two thousand years of knowledge more than these ancients and has some understanding of the development of future history, this does not mean that Cao Shuang can predict everything in the future. In the future, he will face the top figures of the current era, and the ancients may think differently from the perspective of modern people, which does not mean that modern people are smarter than the ancients. What he can do now is to grow and grow into a towering tree of the Cao family, and the greater the power of the Cao group, the better he can live. So, he has to learn, keep learning and let himself grow.
Cao Shuang was silent, just staring at the food in front of him. Cao Zhen saw all this in his eyes, "Shuang'er, is there anything on your mind?" Hearing Cao Zhen call him, Cao Shuang hurriedly stood up and saluted Cao Zhen, "Father, the child has a reluctant request." Cao Zhen looked at the movements of his six-year-old son in front of him, and smiled slightly, "Between you and my father and son, there is nothing that can't be said, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”
"The child wants to learn the art of war and martial arts, and in the future, he will share the worries and problems of his grandfather and father." Cao Shuang's firm tone made people feel that this was not what a six-year-old child said. Cao Zhen and Zhang looked at their son in front of them in surprise, Zhang just felt that his son was like a different person since he recovered from his injury, and Cao Zhen thought more, Cao Zhen is Cao's adopted son, although Cao Cao treats him as his own, but to stand firm in the Cao family, in addition to the clan identity, it is meritorious. And the premise of merit is ability, just like his uncle Xiahou brothers, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and others have a very high prestige in the Cao Group, all of which is not only because of the clan status, but also because of their merits in the Cao Group. In the future, everything he Cao Zhen got will be inherited by his son, and the people of Cao Zhen's clan will eventually rely on this son.
