Chapter Twenty-Four: Peerless

Cao Ang frowned, and looked at Zhuge Jun, this young man was really too suspicious.

Zhuge Jun looked at Li Hu and said, "What seems to be done by someone on purpose, this is what I paved." ”

Cao Ang, Li Hu and the villagers looked at Zhuge Jun together. Li Hu threw the bamboo in his hand, leaned over to Zhuge Jun a little, his eyes were full of contempt, and said, "I heard you look down on our small people just now, why did you steal the water of our small people?" ”

Zhuge Jun paused for a moment, then his little face turned red, and he pointed at Li Hu and shouted, "Who stole the water?" You don't want to spray people with blood. ”

"You take water from someone else's field, aren't you stealing water?" Li Hu pointed to Zhang Qiang's field and said with contempt.

"The water is not your family, you can use it, why can't I use it?" Zhuge Jun was accused of being a water thief, and he was very angry, and asked stubbornly.

Li Hu was stunned, then laughed angrily, and said: "This water is obtained by our hard work, if you want to use water, you can go to the river to get it yourself, there is so much water in the river, no one cares how much you use." ”

"I'm also working hard to get water," Zhuge Jun's words were still stubborn, but his eyes became a little evasive, and after saying a word, his voice became smaller, he lowered his head, and said: "Besides, there is so much water here, I will use a little bit, are you so aggressive?" ”

"A little?" Li Hu's voice rose suddenly, his eyes were already fierce, and he glared at Zhuge Jun and said: "We have been cutting bamboo and building water wheels day and night, and it took a lot of effort to transport some water, so you can get it without work with a word?" ”

Zhuge Jun looked up at Li Hu, his eyes were full of surprise, he opened the corners of his mouth, and said, "You ......"

"Let's go, I'm going to ask your parents how they educated you, and you still don't repent of doing such a immoral thing." Li Hu was furious, walked straight over and grabbed Zhuge Jun, and said viciously.

Zhuge Jun was ashamed, and a little tears suddenly welled up in his eyes. Cao Ang looked at it from the sidelines, and secretly thought that this kid knew that shame was not hopeless, so he said to Li Hu: "You talk well, Hugh will yell and scream." ”

Li Hu snorted and panted, pointed at Zhuge Jun, and said angrily: "It's so annoying, it's obviously wrong to steal water by yourself, but you are still upright and unrepentant, how can there be such a person." I must find his parents and ask them how they educate their children. ”

"You're not welcome in my family." Zhuge Jun screamed violently, tears falling down his cheeks, but his eyes stared at Li Hu stubbornly.

Li Hu was stunned for a while, and was confused by Zhuge Jun's sudden anger and crying. Cao Ang sighed lightly in his heart, walked to Li Hu's side, and whispered, "Okay, you guys go get busy first, you don't have to worry about this matter." ”

Li Hu glared at Zhuge Jun unwillingly, and the villagers on the side hurriedly pulled him and said, "Let's go, Mr. will deal with it properly, is it possible that you don't even believe Mr." ”

Only then did Li Hu retract his gaze at Zhuge Jun, snorted twice, squeezed out a smile and said to Cao Ang: "Then the little one will go first, if Mr. has any orders, just send someone to call me." ”

Cao Ang waved his hand, and after the two of them left, he walked to Zhuge Jun's side, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "How can a man cry easily, I'll send you home." ”

Zhuge Jun hurriedly wiped his hazy tears with his sleeve, then looked at Cao Ang, and said coldly: "Are you going to my house to question my parents?" ”

Cao Angwan smiled and said in a harmonious voice: "That's not it, it's just that I saw that the little brother had a good conversation and seemed to be a scholar, so I wanted to visit." ”

Zhuge Jun snorted, the indifference on his face disappeared a lot, and he said in a low voice: "My parents have long since died, but I can't receive you." ”

Cao Ang felt pity, and secretly thought that it was no wonder that Zhuge was obviously ashamed, but in the end he suddenly became angry, thinking that it must be Li Hu who mentioned his parents twice, touching on the sad past, which is both ashamed and sad, and young at the same time, unable to control his emotions.

"Who else is in the little brother's family?" Cao Ang's tone became softer.

The sadness on Zhuge Jun's face was suddenly swept away, and the whole person became excited, his eyes flashed with heartfelt pride and pride, and he puffed up his small chest and said, "I live with my second brother." ”

Seeing him look like this, Cao Ang couldn't help but be slightly curious, and asked with a smile: "Dare to ask Brother Ling's name?" ”

"My second brother's single name is bright, and the word Kong Ming is clear." Zhuge Jun raised his little head, with indescribable pride in his expression, and said: "My second brother is the most handsome man in the world, the most knowledgeable scholar, and he is much stronger than you. ”

Cao Ang smiled dumbly, silently reciting Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Kongming in his heart, after reading it twice, his eyes were condensed, some memories floated in his mind, and after silently digesting it, his eyes crossed with brilliance, and his heart couldn't help but get excited, looking at Zhuge Jun and said: "Then Cao Mou will go to visit your second brother, okay?" ”

"My second brother usually doesn't see outsiders, not to mention that if you see my brother, you will definitely be ashamed of yourself, are you sure you want to go?" Zhuge Jun seemed to have a good impression of Cao Ang, and even blinked his eyes, and said a little playfully and provocatively.

Cao Ang couldn't help laughing and said, "What if you can see such a handsome man in the world, you are ashamed of yourself?" The world is big, there are more people who are better than me, little brother, you are a villain. ”

Zhuge Jun also laughed, touched his head, and said, "Then let's go, I don't know if the second brother is not at home at this time." ”

Cao Ang accompanied Zhuge Jun slowly with a smile on his face, chatted for a while on the road, Zhuge Jun was talking about Zhuge Liang eight out of ten, and his face was always filled with a smile of pride and worship at this time, and it could be seen that Zhuge Jun admired his brother very much.

After walking for a while, Cao Ang casually asked, "Why did the little brother come here to get water?" ”

Zhuge Jun's expression darkened, and after a moment of silence, he said in a low voice: "The grain in my family's field is almost dry, and the second brother has nothing to do. There is a small pond next to the plot, which used to be replenished by the large pond here. I wanted to find water to help my second brother, so I followed the channel where the water usually flows. I saw a lot of water in this field, so I wanted to get some, but I didn't know that the villagers had worked hard to get it, I just said that it was water from a pond or river upstream, and I ......."

Cao Ang nodded silently, seeing Zhuge Jun's face full of shame and chagrin, he comforted: "Little brother doesn't need to blame himself, although this matter is your fault, but you don't mean to be evil after all, just apologize sincerely to others in the future." Just curiously below, how do you get water from the field? I waited for a few people to think for a long time, but I didn't find the whereabouts of the water, if you hadn't been frightened by the worm and screamed, I still wouldn't have been able to find it. ”

When Zhuge Jun heard this, his face showed a hint of naughtiness, and he grinned: "It was last year, I sneaked out to play, found a hare in the field, wanted to catch it, chased it all the way and ran to this field. As he spoke, he pointed to the outside of the ridge on the west side.

"This is the rabbit's nest, and when I chased it here, it got into the hole, and in desperation I burned some weeds and put it at the mouth of the hole, trying to smoke it out with smoke. After a long time, the rabbit came out of another exit. As he spoke, he pointed to the hole at the foot of the ridge on the north side.

"So after I arrived here this time, I slowly groped and searched according to my memory, and finally taught me to find these two holes. I draw water from the hole in the field, through the rabbit's nest, and then I use a bamboo tube to divert the water to this channel, and then I can drain the water to the pond next to my field. ”

Cao Ang shook his head silently. Zhuge Jun saw it and asked puzzledly: "Do you think I lied to you?" ”

"No," Cao Ang smiled slightly, then sighed, and said, "You don't think of this idea to ordinary people, but unfortunately you probably can't get much water if you do this." ”

"Why? Zhuge was puzzled.

"This cave is not supposed to be a rabbit's nest, the rabbit's nest is not so big, it may be the nest of some other animal, since it has two exits, maybe there will be a third or a fourth, and some of the water you drain will probably flow away from the other holes. And now the drought is severe, the channel of water transport on weekdays has long been dry and cracked, you drain such a little water, and a large part of it will be absorbed by the channel, and by the time you reach the pond next to your field, there is not much left, and the soil of the pond will still absorb water. So all this water that you drain from this field is not going to help at all. “

"Ah......" Zhuge Jun was dumbfounded, looked annoyed, patted his head, and said, "How did I forget this." ”

Cao Ang couldn't cry or laugh, and a thatched house appeared in front of him, and he stopped at the moment and said, "Is this your home?" As he spoke, he pointed to the humble thatched cottage in front of him.

Zhuge Jun looked at it and said, "Exactly, our feet are so fast, I didn't even pay attention." ”

Cao Ang straightened his shirt and was about to come to visit. There was a clear voice from the thatched house: "Is Jun'er back?" Where did you run again? ”

Zhuge Jun's eyes rolled around, and he whispered to Cao Ang: "This is my second brother, let me introduce you to you." As he spoke, he ran to the thatched house, shouting as he ran: "Second brother, there is a guest visiting." As he spoke, he winked at Cao Ang.

Cao Ang smiled, walked up quickly, and said loudly: "Cao Ziang took the liberty to visit under Cao Xuan, and begged for forgiveness." ”

After a few breaths, I saw a young man who was nearly eight feet tall, with a face as white and clean as jade, and deep sword eyebrows, who looked like sixteen or seventeen years old, walked out. When he saw Cao Ang, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "I have seen Your Excellency in Xia Zhuge Liang, I don't know why Your Excellency came?" ”

Cao Ang looked at Zhuge Liang carefully, and saw that although he was still a little childish, he had a calm and humble temperament, and he was plump and beautiful, and he didn't look like a young man who had not yet reached the weak crown, but more like an immortal, and he was really a beautiful man with a peerless weather.
