Chapter 24: Preparations for Departure (I)
"When I was playing just now, I saw my uncle, uncle, and eldest brother, second brother and you all hurriedly went to the hall. I followed in a moment of curiosity and kept hiding outside the door eavesdropping, so I knew everything. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Wang Xiong's immature face showed a kind of persistence, patted his chest and said, "Brother, you also let me go with you to pick up my father!" I have practiced all the martial arts you taught my family. After speaking, he clenched his little fist and waved at this Wang Xu!
Wang Xu was quite surprised by Xiao Wang Xiong's appearance, he really didn't expect that the little kid who always likes to run behind his ass on weekdays would be so different. However, he forgot that he was actually only a teenager under the age of 14.
Turning his head and Wang Fei glanced at each other, he instantly made a discussion with his eyes. But unfortunately, both of them shook their heads in unison.
Affirming what he was thinking, Wang Xu couldn't help but turn his head and said softly to his lovely younger brother: "Wang Xiong, you are only eight years old, although my brother also knows that you are already very powerful." But it's really hard to pick up your father, and my brothers can't take care of you, so I can't let you go. You can study well at home and practice martial arts. When you grow up in the future, your brother will take you out! ”
"Brother! I ......" Seeing that Wang Xiong wanted to say more, Wang Xu immediately pretended to be angry and straightened his face.
As soon as he saw his face, Wang Xiong knew that his brother had made a decision. For his brother, Wang Xiong is very in awe. The momentum weakened, and he muttered dejectedly: "Okay! But you must come back safely. ”
"Yes! Rest assured! My second brother and I will definitely bring my father back safely. Touching Wang Xiong's little head, Wang Xu liked his younger brother more and more. couldn't help but smile and advised: "You should also practice martial arts at home and study more." Otherwise, when I come back and know that you don't care, I will never take you out in the future! ”
"Yes! I'm going to work hard, I'm going to be as good as my brother! After speaking, Wang Xiong looked at Wang Xu with a look of adoration.
Smiling slightly, Wang Xu said happily: "Okay, my second brother and I still have some things to discuss, you go play first!" Don't run too far though, it's not very safe outside right now. ”
"Yes! I know. However, I don't play, I go to practice! Wang Xiong nodded sensibly, and then ran away.
Looking at Wang Xiong who was going all the way, Wang Fei couldn't help but smile and said, "Third brother, this kid Wang Xiong listens to you very much!" He doesn't accept anyone on weekdays, why is he so afraid of you? But let's be honest, you are the only one who has the most authority among the siblings. ”
"Huh! Maybe I taught him all kinds of knowledge since he was a child, so he was very close to me. What kind of prestige is not prestige, don't say that in the future, if you want to be heard by the eldest brother, you will definitely be unhappy again" Speaking of this, Wang Xu couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Hey! With my eldest brother, sometimes I don't know how to get along. ”
Wang Xu is indeed a little depressed about this, because Wang Kai is very taboo about him, and he even doesn't like anyone to mention Wang Xu in front of him in private, and the relationship between the two has been worse in recent years.
However, this also can't blame Wang Kai, just because Wang Xu is too popular, and he has already been recognized by everyone at a young age. His brothers and sisters also obeyed him, centered on him, and took him as an example. And Wang Kai, who was the eldest brother, was forced to be silent in the back over the years, and what he heard every day was how good the other party was, which made his self-esteem as a big brother suffer a blow to him.
Especially when he was immersed in hard study, he was not like Wang Fei, who had practiced martial arts with Wang Xu since he was a child, communicated frequently, and knew each other very well. Therefore, with this estrangement, the two have become more and more estranged.
But then again, Wang Kai is actually a very good big brother in Wang Xu's heart. Because he could see that secretly Wang Kai still cared about several brothers and sisters, even including him! No matter what good things he had, he would send someone to send one to Wang Xu, but the two of them could never communicate intimately, and more often they were polite as if they were entertaining.
Seeing that Wang Xuqing was a little low, Wang Fei patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Actually, Wang Yue and I have told him about this, but some things are always difficult to understand, and we are not good to be too direct." He has never been able to pass his own level in his thinking, I think the main reason is that there is too little contact between the eldest brother and you! In the future, when everyone grows more, it will slowly get better after more contact! ”
Wang Xu smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't want to talk more about this issue, so he walked silently all the way to the door of the study.
"When you hear footsteps, you'll know it's you." Xu Shu suddenly rushed out of the study, and when she saw the two of them, she immediately asked eagerly, "How did you discuss it?" ”
"Well, a decision has been made, let's go into the study!"
Saying that, Wang Xu walked quickly to the table in the study and sat down, and temporarily put aside the trivial matters, and his head was already full of expedition matters.
"Suffered!"
"What's going on?" Xu Shu and Wang Fei, who didn't know why, both looked at Wang Xu suspiciously, and said in unison.
Wang Xu patted his head in annoyance, and just wanted to speak. But seeing that the second brother Wang Fei was also at the moment, he stopped abruptly. Because this kind of thing can't be known to him, he immediately waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, just some bits and pieces." Okay, let's get down to business! ”
Although Xu Shu saw that Wang Xu had something very important, her understanding of each other also made her not ask more, and sat down after glancing at Wang Xu. "How's that going on with your land?"
Hearing this, Wang Fei, who had just sat down, immediately replied: "The matter has been negotiated, the eldest uncle and my father will preside over the affairs of the family, and I will send troops with the third brother to pick up the second uncle and Uncle Xu early tomorrow morning." ”
Hearing that a decision had been made, Xu Shu also said happily: "It's really good, so what kind of route should we take?" ”
"We already know the business route of the second uncle, and we also know the relevant situation, I think the third brother should have a number in his heart!" As he spoke, Wang Fei looked at Wang Xu.
"Well, I have a clear route in mind for this trip." Wang Xu nodded, and then continued: "However, I have other plans in my heart. ”
"Huh? Could it be that the third brother has another way to find the second uncle? ”
Facing Wang Fei's puzzled gaze, Wang Xu shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course not, saving my father can only be found all the way." With my father's wit, there shouldn't be any big problems. And now that the yellow scarf has just risen, as long as we move quickly, it is not difficult to save my father! I mean, after saving my father. ”
Wang Fei was even more confused, frowning and asking suspiciously, "I don't know what the third brother means?" ”
Seeing that Wang Fei was a little anxious, Wang Xu stopped selling Guanzi, and immediately explained earnestly. "Second brother, now the yellow turban thieves are rising, and the world is in chaos. It won't be long before the imperial court will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress it. This is the time when we led our troops to assist the imperial court to quell the rebellion, made meritorious deeds, and revived the prestige of our royal family! You and I are both martial artists, and we don't come out at this time, so what are you waiting for? ”
