Lu Ren and Zhuge Liang and his wife were chatting and laughing incessantly, while at this time in the young and righteous house in Xuchang City, Xu Shu's mother and son were hugging and crying.

Xu Shu was guilty of exile when he was a teenager, and more than ten years have passed in a flash, and the original hairy boy is now nearly middle-aged, but the mother and son have never even seen each other, so when he saw his mother, he cried so much that he couldn't finish his words without saying a few words, but he knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately to his mother, and he didn't even care about the blood marks on his scalp. On the other hand, Xu's mother was no better, and she hugged Xu Shu and cried vigorously.

The sad scene after the mother and son met was also very touching to the few people next to them, and they all turned their heads sideways to wipe their tears, and finally Mrs. Ding spoke, and left the house where Xu Shu's mother and son were with a few people present, and came to their own residence.

At this time, there were only three people in the room: Mrs. Ding, Zhao Yu, and Shi Tao. The three of them cleaned up their moods, and after Mrs. Ding let Zhao Yu and Shi Tao take their seats, she looked Zhao Yu up and down for a while, and then sighed lightly: "Miss Yu, after a few years, is this child Yihao doing well now?" ”

Zhao Yu had lived in Xuchang for a period of time, and had followed Lu Ren to the Childcare House a few times, and naturally knew Mrs. Ding, which was one of the reasons why Lu Ren would let Zhao Yu take Xu Shu and Shi Tao to Xuchang. And the three of them have been following Lu Ren's instructions along the way, keeping as low a key and obscure as possible, and even when they entered the Childcare House, they met Mrs. Ding as ordinary visitors.

And the relationship between Mrs. Ding, Lu Ren and Wan'er is extraordinary, plus she knows Zhao Yu, and seeing that Zhao Yu does not make any publicity to ask for a meeting, she naturally knows that Zhao Yu has her own intentions for this trip, so she never said it, and maintained a plain posture to lead Zhao Yu and the three of them to see Mother Xu. It wasn't until Xu Shu's mother and son met that they asked Zhao Yu at this time.

Zhao Yu responded respectfully to Mrs. Ding, and then took out the letter that Lu Ren handed her that day from her body and handed it to Mrs. Ding. Mrs. Ding unfolded the letter and read it carefully. Nodding lightly, he said, "It seems that Yihao, this kid, has been doing well in the past few years, and the old body is relieved." Rain girl, your old body already knows the meaning of your arrival, and you can live here for a few days with peace of mind, and slow down the fatigue of traveling so far. In addition, the Xu family has been working with me for many years in the Childcare House, and this day is going to be, so I have to give their mother and son a little time to prepare. ”

Zhao Yu nodded yes, and Mrs. Ding grabbed Zhao Yu and asked Zhao Yu about some things about Lu Ren. At the beginning, the relationship between Lu Ren, Wan'er and Cao Ang was very delicate, after several changes. Mrs. Ding actually regarded Lu Ren as her own child, so she also cared about Lu Ren, and even helped Lu Ren to make Cao Cao a solid pit when Lu Ren was about to flee from Xuchang. It's been a few years now, and Mrs. Ding often thinks about Lu Ren.

Although Zhao Yu doesn't follow Lu Ren very much, Zhao Yu stays in Yizhou most of the time, and is responsible for the security work of Yizhou Town, and he may know many things about Yizhou Town better than Lu Ren, so at this time, he picked out some things that could be said and introduced them to Mrs. Ding. After hearing this, Mrs. Ding sighed sincerely: "Yihao, this kid finally didn't disappoint the old body. Even if they abandon their official positions, they can still build villages and towns in the peaceful places overseas to take in those starving and displaced people who have been homeless in the war...... Rain girl, wait until you go back. Can you help the old man bring a message to Yihao? ”

Zhao Yu also had a lot of respect for Mrs. Ding, so after listening to Ding Fu's words, he hurriedly responded: "Ding Shimu, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Mrs. Ding waved her hand, then looked around, and then sighed a little helplessly: "Yihao spent a lot of effort to build this young house. After that, he also spent a lot of effort to maintain the righteous house. If this is the case, it will be able to save many children who have lost their parents, but after he is gone, ......"

The next words made Zhao Yu gradually understand. And it's a pity that Lu Ren is not here. Otherwise, Lu Ren would have understood more thoroughly than Zhao Yu...... In fact, to put it bluntly, the Childcare House is similar to the public welfare orphanage in modern society, or it can also be said that Lu Ren was originally built according to the orphanage in modern society. This is a good thing, but the problem is that there are troubles in modern orphanages, and not only do you not pull anything, but even more than modern orphanages.

To put it more simply, the Childcare House has encountered problems in terms of operating funds. This kind of problem is almost common in modern orphanages, but the difference is that orphanages in modern society generally have a fixed welfare allowance from the government and can seek assistance from the society.

Can you take care of the young...... There are also some allowances from government departments, which Cao Cao promised to Fu Youyi in Mrs. Ding's affection, but there is not much sincerity. So in the original time, the main source of income for the Childcare House was still taken out by Lu Ren. After Lu Ren escaped from Cao Ying, the Childcare House lost at least half of its economic resources, and coupled with the problems of the social background and humanistic concepts at that time, the operation of the Childcare House was becoming more and more difficult.

To put it mildly, it is not easy for the current childcare house to make the orphans in the shelter barely eat their bellies, and this is still from time to time to get some help from all sides, such as Cao Cao's Mrs. Bian occasionally sends some belongings and the like. But what will become next, Mrs. Ding no longer dares to think about it. So when she suddenly saw Zhao Yu at this time, Mrs. Ding had some thoughts.

“…… That's the way it is. Rain girl, when you go back to see Yihao, please help the old man ask him if there is a way to solve this matter. ”

Having said this, Mrs. Ding couldn't help but stand by the window and look at the children in the Childcare House, her eyes were also full of deep worry. This is because Lu Ren is not here, otherwise Lu Ren will tell Zhao Yu what kind of care women like Mrs. Ding have reached for children due to many things.

But fortunately, Zhao Yu already knew a little bit at the beginning, and at this moment, seeing Mrs. Ding's expression, he hesitated a little and just wanted to speak, but Mrs. Ding turned around and said to Zhao Yu: "It's a pity that your dealings this time can't be publicized, otherwise I want some children in Yishe who are about to become adults to follow you to Yihao." As you said before, the towns built by Yihao in Yizhou have housed more and more displaced people in recent years, but there are no powerful people around Yihao's children, so these children who grew up in Yihao can always help Yihao more or less. ”

Zhao Yu nodded. After thinking about it again, Zhao Yu asked Mrs. Ding to write a letter and handed it to Lu Ren personally after he returned.

――――――――――――――――――――

Xu Shu's mother and son are preparing to leave Xuchang, which will take a little time. In fact, if it's just that the mother and son want to leave Xuchang, they can just pack up, mainly because Xu Shu's younger brother Xu Kang is an official of the Dasi Nong Mansion, and if he wants to resign and leave, there are a lot of things to be handed over at hand, so he has to delay for a few days.

On the other hand, Xu Kang was recommended by Lu Ren at the beginning, and Lu Ren can be said to know everything about the things in the Dasi Nong Mansion, so he has repeatedly told Zhao Yu not to be in a hurry. Even Lu Ren helped think of the excuse for Xu Kang's resignation, that is, he deduced that Xu's mother was gradually losing her health and wanted to go home to support Tiannian. This kind of excuse is the best excuse to resign and go home in that era of filial piety first.

didn't mention how Xu Shu was busy, just said that although they were busy, Zhao Yu had nothing to do here. And Zhao Yu belongs to the kind of girl who can't sit still, plus she has lived in Xuchang for a while, and now since she can't sit still, she said hello to Xu Shu and them, and wandered around Xuchang City with a little bit of the intention of revisiting the old place. Of course, Zhao Yu also knew that Xuchang was not a small city in Yizhou, and it was better to pay attention to the things that should be paid attention to, so Zhao Yu came out to hang out in disguise as a man.

Xuchang is the capital of the Han Dynasty at the current point, and Lu Ren spent a lot of effort to plan, so it will naturally have its corresponding prosperity over the years. Needless to say, the city's population of about 600,000 or 700,000 speaks for itself.

Such a city was already an absolute big city at that time, you must know that even in the Tang Dynasty, the national capital Chang'an had a population of only about one million, and it was already a world-class big city. Of course, it is not comparable to the situation in modern society where a slightly more developed city can have a population of several million. But anyway, Zhao Yu is still in a very good mood when walking on such a relatively prosperous street, after all, it is almost the nature of women to like shopping.

Walking here and there, Zhao Yu came to a street corner unconsciously. He casually turned a corner and glanced at the shops on the street, trying to see if there was anything he was interested in. But when she looked at the street she was about to set foot on, she saw two scribes walking side by side, and she was suddenly startled, and subconsciously wanted to turn away, but by chance she knocked down the pedestrians around her.

I wanted to ignore the pedestrian who was knocked down by her, but it was an old man who was knocked down by her. With Zhao Yu's character, even if he wanted to run again, he really couldn't let go of this heart, so after a little thought, Zhao Yu turned his back and helped the old man up. No matter how Zhao Yu is disguised as a man at this time, and it is now a few years later, it is not certain whether the two scribes can recognize her. If she had shown her background, perhaps the two scribes would have not noticed her at all.

But it's a pity that after Zhao Yu picked up the old man and apologized, there was a voice behind her that she didn't want to hear:

"Nephew, don't come unharmed?" (To be continued.) )
