Liu Xin had been paying attention to the change in the expression on Guan Yu's face, and asked with a bow, "What does Yun Chang have in mind?" ”

The man has tears and does not flick, Guan Yu I is a hero, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he always has to be strong on the outside. Guan Yu squeezed out a smile and said, "It's nothing, the last general is just happy to see the lord have such a good child and be happy for the lord." ”

Of course, Liu Xin knew that Guan Yu was in love with the scene, and recalled his wife and young son. Liu Xin didn't say anything, and turned to Liu Yu again and asked, "Yu'er, you haven't told me yet, why did you come back so early today." ”

Liu Yu smiled and said: "Dad, it was Grandpa who asked the child to come back first, he said that Daddy should be home today, and he will come to see his father in a while." ”

Liu Xin nodded and said, "Grandpa is an elder, how can I let grandpa come to see me first?" You go in and talk to your Sanniang, let her clean up, and I will go with her to visit Grandpa later, and bring him a few gifts by the way. ”

Guan Yu didn't know who the grandfather in Liu Yu's mouth was, but he could also hear that this grandfather must be the father of that Sanniang. Since it is Liu Yu's third mother, it should be Liu Xin's concubine.

Filial piety comes first, people in this era value filial piety the most, and Liu Xin was able to treat a concubine's father as an elder. In this hierarchical society, Liu Xin, who is in a high position, can do this, which shocked Guan Yu.

Guan Yu was born in poverty, and he has been following Liu Bei in the past, just because Liu Bei, like him, was also born at the bottom of society. And Liu Bei had a meritorious role in suppressing the Yellow Turban, but he was not reused by the imperial court for a long time, because of Liu Bei's background, and even Guan Yu did not have a good opinion of those nobles, including Liu Xin, who was a relative of the Han family. At this point, Guan Yu was completely convinced of Liu Xin, and hurriedly stood up and arched his hand and said, "Lord ......"

In fact, Liu Xin has always taught some truths to his children subtly through some small things, and he didn't deliberately show anything in front of Guan Yu, so he behaved very naturally.

Seeing Guan Yu's excited expression, Liu Xin didn't expect that it was just a very simple homely conversation between himself and his son, but it could impress Guan Yu, a tough guy, and couldn't help but move, waved his hand, and said: "Yun Chang, my child likes to practice martial arts, but Liu is busy with official business and has no time to teach him personally." Liu wants him to worship Yun Chang as a teacher, but I don't know if Yun Chang is willing to accept this apprentice? ”

Don't look at Liu Xin's idea just came out of nowhere, but it has a deep meaning. Due to the appearance of Liu Bang, the future situation has become a little complicated, and he must take precautions now. If Liu Yu can worship Guan Yu as a teacher, it is equivalent to finding a boost for Liu Yu. And in history, Guan Yu's two sons, Guan Ping and Guan Xing, are also strong in martial arts, and they can become Liu Yu's right-hand men.

Originally, Guan Yu thought of his long-lost young son when he saw Liu Yu, but now Liu Xin actually asked him to accept Liu Yu as an apprentice, so he naturally agreed.

Liu Xin smiled and said: "Okay, this matter will be settled first, and then let Yu'er perform the apprenticeship on an auspicious day." Yu'er, you go to the back first, see if your mother is ready, there are no outsiders here. ”

This sentence is so brainless, don't say that Liu Yu doesn't understand, even Guan Yu can't figure out what Liu Xin means when he says this, could it be related to that surprise? Liu Yu is a child after all, and he doesn't think much about the things he can't understand, just bring the words.

After Liu Yu left, Liu Xin and Guan Yu had a family affair for a while, just to ask him about the things he had when he was young, why he killed people, why he fled, how he met Liu Bei, and so on. Under the guidance of Liu Xin's topic, Guan Yu slowly recalled the bits and pieces of the past, and the expression on his face changed, one moment excited, one moment gloomy, and another moment a little angry.

Suddenly, Ma Yun turned out from behind the screen with two people, came to Guan Yu, and said with a smile: "General Guan, do you still know them?" ”

Because Liu Bei was mentioned just now, Guan Yu's face was still a little angry, and when he heard Ma Yun's question, he suppressed his anger and looked behind Ma Yun, and couldn't help but look stunned. Behind Ma Yun was a woman with a teenager. The woman was about thirty years old, and her appearance was mediocre, and she thought that life was not going well, and her face was covered with wind and frost. And that young man is similar to Liu Yu in age, and he was also born with a tiger's back, and his eyebrows are a little similar to Guan Yu's.

The woman looked at Guan Yu in a daze, suddenly burst into tears, opened her mouth, and was speechless for a long time. Ma Yun patted the young man and encouraged: "Guan Ping, that bare-faced and long-haired general is your father, don't come forward to meet him soon." ”

The young man looked at Guan Yu and hesitated and didn't dare to step forward. Guan Yu had already stood up again, and the big hands that could swing the Qinglong Yanyue Knife freely trembled slightly, and finally took a step forward and said, "Are you Jinding?" Are you Ping'er? ”

As soon as these two words were asked, the woman cried out with a "wow".

Ma Yun pulled the corner of Liu Xin's clothes, glanced at Dian Wei again, and the three of them quietly retreated, leaving Guan Yu's family hugging and crying in the hall.

When Liu Xin returned to the hall again, Guan Yu's family was already talking and laughing. Seeing Liu Xin coming in, Guan Yu took his clothes on the ground and said loudly: "The lord helped the last general find his long-lost wife, please accept the last general's worship!" ”

At this point, Guan Yu has completely made up his mind that his life will be Liu Xin's from now on. Liu Xin smiled, stepped forward to help Guan Yu up, and said: "These things are all done by my wife, Liu doesn't dare to take credit, otherwise, hehe, you know ......"

In fact, the whereabouts of Guan Yu's long-lost wife, Hu Shi, and his young son Guan Ping, as well as their poverty, have long been clearly grasped by the Phantom Spy. But Liu Xin did not take further measures, but planned to use the mother and son to blackmail Guan Yu into submission at some point in the future. Although this is a bit unkind, people who do great things always need to be ruthless.

Because of Du Xiuniang's matter, Liu Xin successfully subdued Guan Yu. After the news reached Xiangyang, Ma Yun took the initiative to let the Hu family and son take over. Of course, there have been many twists and turns, but the Phantom Spy has become familiar with these things, and naturally there are no leaks and flaws. Under the arrangement of the phantom secret spy, the Hu mother and son were unable to continue and were forced to join the Shangjia family as slaves, and then came to Xiangyang and met Ma Yun on the street. Ma Yun inadvertently asked about their life experiences and expressed deep sympathy for them, so she ransomed them and arranged a place for them to live.

These things can't be done in a day or two, so Liu Xin postponed the return date of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, the eight generals who were going to participate in the advanced seminar, by a few days, until the news came from Xiangyang that everything had been done before leaving for the return.

Guan Yu was pulled up from the ground by Liu Xin, and muttered: "The surprise that the lord gave to the last general is too big, and the last general is still ......."

Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "Yun Chang, don't be too happy, there are still a lot of things in your house that have not been taken care of clearly, don't blame me for not reminding you when the backyard fires out." ”

Guan Yu was stunned, and he didn't understand what Liu Xin meant by these words. But I heard that the Hu family had already said: "The concubine is from a slight background, and she is already satisfied with being able to reunite Ping'er's father and son, and she never dares to fight for the position of a wife." ”

Just now Ma Yun introduced Cao Hui and Du Xiuniang into the back house, and Hu Jinding had already met with them. Cao Hui and Du Xiuniang are both young and beautiful. Du Xiuniang can even be fascinated by Liu Bei, naturally she is a sinking fish and a goose, and she is ashamed of flowers in the closed moon, while Cao Hui's beauty is not as good as Du Xiuniang, but she is from a famous family. On the other hand, Hu Jinding, over the years, she has been pulling Guan Ping alone, endured a lot of hardships, weathered, and silver threads have loomed on her temples, looking older than her actual age. That is, Buddhism has not yet prevailed in this era, otherwise Hu Jinding would have wanted the ancient Buddha of the green lantern, and he would have been reborn.

Liu Xin shook his head and said, "Don't give up the wife of the chaff!" Madame worked hard to pull Guan Ping into an adult, Yun Chang, you can't snub her! ”

Guan Yu then remembered that he had already accepted two wives and concubines in Xuzhou, Du Xiuniang still begged Liu Xin in every possible way, and Cao Hui was even more pregnant, no wonder Liu Xin said something about the backyard fire just now, and couldn't help but say: "Please rest assured, the lord will never have the slightest guilt in this life, otherwise the sky will thunder!" ”

Hu Jinding hurriedly covered Guan Yu's mouth and said, "Husband, you have to swear indiscriminately. ”

Liu Xin pretended not to see it, coughed dryly, and said, "Yun Chang, your family affairs, Liu shouldn't have asked too much. However, it is indeed not easy for Hu to take care of the child alone, and Liu has to say a few more words. In this way, according to Liu, the Hu family is your wife, and her status in the main room is unshakable, so the Cao family and the Du family will be equal wives. Yun Chang, do you think this is good? ”

Guan Yu bowed and said: "The lord's arrangement, the last general will have no objections. If the two of them dare to be disrespectful to Ping'er and his mother, the last general will expel them from the house! ”

Seeing Guan Yu's resolute face, Liu Xin smiled and said: "Okay, the matter is not as serious as you think, Liu believes that the two ladies Cao and Du are reasonable people, and they will definitely not make trouble unreasonably." It's not too early, so I won't keep you, and the family will go back and have a good reunion. ”

Liu Xin, a "faint official", finished Guan Yu's housework and turned around and went back to the back house. The family is reunited, and he is also anxious to go to the back house to visit his wife and children.

In the back house, Ma Yun, Bian Yu and others all gathered together with their respective children, Zhu Rong's abdomen was already bulging, counting the days, it was time to give birth in the past few days. Seeing Liu Xin come in, it was Zhu Rong who was the first to stand up, and said with a happy face: "Brother, Rong'er recognized a baby kiss today!" ”
