Chapter 249: A Man's Hand

Wu Shigong's eyes focused on the distance, and he said while recalling: "Since I can remember, I have always been very strange about one thing, my father and mother, Weishenme and my brothers and sisters, will talk and laugh, but Weishenme doesn't like to talk to me? ”

"But when I grew up a little bit I realized that what I had always thought of as my mother, the lady I had always called, turned out to be my father's wife. Not my birth mother. And my biological mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to me. Speaking of this, Wu Shigong smiled self-deprecatingly.

"The Son does not speak of the Father! I don't have much to say about my father's attitude towards me. But when I was young, I just hoped that my father would praise me a few words, even if he said a few more words to me. But, from childhood to adulthood, alas! Speaking of this, Wu Shigong shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"In my memory, it's like my father praised me once when I was a child. It was when one of my aunts returned to the Hou Mansion, and my brothers and sisters and I kowtowed to my aunt. When my aunt gave each of us red envelopes, she took my hand and said, 'Shigong's hands are bulging, very cute!' ’”

"My father said, 'This child is this good pair of fleshy hands, and he looks like a girl.' After listening to my father's compliment, I was secretly happy for a long time. ”

"I know I'm not good-looking. So after receiving this compliment, I was proud of my hands for a long time. Really, proud for a long time. Wu Shigong said as he raised his hands and looked back and forth.

"Until now, my hands are fleshy hands, and there has always been a ** on the back of this hand. When winter comes, if I don't pay attention, my hands will get frostbite. ”

But when I understood a little bit of the meaning of my father's words, I realized that saying that a man gave birth to a pair of fleshy hands means that the man can't do things, and that is not a good word. That's not at all like saying that a woman gave birth to a pair of fleshy hands, which means that the woman can have the life of a young grandmother and be blessed. ”

And when I learned what that meant, I was worried. I'm afraid that after I have these fleshy hands, I will look like a woman, and I won't be able to get a wife in the future. Haha......! ”

Speaking of this, Wu Shigong couldn't help but daxiao, and tears burst into laughter from the corners of his eyes. But Deng Qifan looked at Wu Shigong and just felt a little sad. Deng Qifan also vaguely knew Wu Shigong's origin from the mouths of the people around Wu Shigong, but he didn't expect that this adult, who was born in the Hou Mansion and was majestic in front of everyone, would have such a bitter life when he was a child.

"So after that, I kept thinking that I wanted to live a good life for my father. But I was so stubborn that I couldn't do anything. The text is not sufficient. Although I am tall and tall, when I fight with others, my head will be broken. When I went to study in Guozijian, the level of Shiwen Jingyi was counted backwards in Guozijian. It's my reputation as a showman, and I still got it in my father's face. ”

"Also, if I can't do things, it's okay, but I can't do it in the world. has grown so big, that is, he has a friend in Guozijian. His name is Sun Chengxiu, that is, he is willing to talk to me. ”

Later, I heard that Sun Chengxiu was admitted to the Jinshi in Enke in the first year of Chongzhen, and he was sent to Huguang to be an official. Mr. Deng knew that my Xue Mansion had the identity of the Wei Party. In order not to implicate Sun Chengxiu, I haven't even passed a letter with him over the years. But I think about him all the time, and I really miss him! ”

"But my father still didn't ignore me, he found me a good errand and asked me to go to the Yangwu Marquis Mansion to be a son-in-law." Speaking of this, Wu Shigong smiled self-deprecatingly again.

"Then when you are a son-in-law, it feels like being looked down upon by others. Fortunately, Tarzan and Taishui treated me as a parent, and I had a very loving lady, and later I had a lovely son. At that time, I thought: how nice it would be if such a happy day never came to an end! ”

But the good times didn't last long, the emperor liquidated the Wei Party, and Lord Taishan also thought about losing his errand behind closed doors. At that time, I also left the capital to avoid disaster and came to Guide Mansion, Henan. ”

"But after arriving at Guide Mansion, I worked hard to stabilize this place. Lying on the salary and tasting the courage, creating this foundation. As of today, I have 5,000 elite soldiers and tens of thousands of people. ”

"In addition, I exterminated the rebellion of the Holy Spirit Society, and went north to King Qin, and cooperated with my godmother, General Qin, to recover the four cities of Yongping. No matter what, I am worthy of my official position and the Ming Dynasty. ”

"But what am I up against? Plot against! Keep stumbling! The local gentry stumble! Colleagues and bosses make trips! To this day, I was honored to be stumped by Shousuke-sama. I'm such a big face! ”

"I'm really tired. Mr. Deng also knew about my childhood just now, and I am not a capable person. For the sake of military training, in order to get military salaries. I've worked hard for many years, but everything I do is half the effort! ”

"What am I doing now? I just want to make the Ming Dynasty stable! To do all these things, I have pasted my own money. Mr. Deng, to be honest, I really don't want to do it now. Leave all this behind and go back to my Yangwu Marquis Mansion to live a rich life! This Ming Dynasty is the world of the Zhu family, I am full of food and can I care about his life and death? ”

Seeing that Wu Shigong's complaints were becoming more and more unreasonable, Deng Qifan opened his mouth to persuade: "My lord is cautious, you also think too low of yourself." Although students don't know much about the past of adults, they can be called husbands when they see what adults are doing today. ”

"Today, the adults can naturally leave and go back to the Yangwu Marquis Mansion to enjoy the blessings. But with such a big foundation as Runingying, what should adults do with it? Without adults, this Runing camp will immediately disappear. Are adults willing to watch those loyal sons and daughters become horse bandits? Are you willing to watch the people under your rule be displaced in this year of great calamity, and the children cannibalize each other? Non-students underestimate adults, and adults can't be ruthless. ”

"Adults, students also advise each other. Although the transfer of troops by the imperial court is a dead end, as long as our Runing battalion is united, we may not be able to find a way out of this dead end. My lord! This heavenly tribulation is a great task from heaven! ”

Wu Shigong was a little embarrassed by Deng Qifan's words. The whining he just said was indeed a bit excessive, and he didn't take into account the mood of Deng Qifan's subordinates. So Wu Shigong also smiled and said, "I was a little excited just now. I sigh that it's too difficult to do things now, Mr. Deng don't care! ”

"For the sake of great things! What's not so difficult? Deng Qifan immediately retorted, "If adults are afraid of danger and avoid danger, are you willing to return to China again as a scholar?" ”

Wu Shigong smiled dumbly, but he didn't expect Deng Qifan to suggest that he be reborn again, so that he could be reborn and cross the two-in-one. So Wu Shigong hurriedly said: "Thank you for Mr. today's enlightenment." The official's previous words were a bit Meng Lang. Here, I would like to thank Mr. ”

After finishing speaking, Wu Shigong clasped his fists and saluted Deng Qifan. Unconsciously, Wu Shigong reverted to the self-title of "Ben Guan", and he returned to his current role.

Deng Qifan also smiled and hurriedly replied: "My lord, you are only in your early twenties, and you should be full of vitality." That kind of sad autumn and ancient thing, let's wait for your success and fame, and the prince Wandai will talk about it later. ”

What the literati said is indeed mysterious, but Deng Qifan still criticized Wu Shigong's complaint just now, just like a modern retired old man reminiscing about the past.

Of course, Wu Shigong heard the meaning of Deng Qifan's words. He let out a loud noise, then slapped the chair arm heavily before standing up. Wu Shigong said loudly outside the door: "Mr. Deng said well! This man is going to do great things. As long as something big happens, who cares if this man has hands or not? ”

Seeing that Wu Shigong had regained his former vigor, Deng Qifan also secretly sighed behind Wu Shigong's back. Now the future of everyone in the Runing Camp is tied to Wu Shigong, even Deng Qifan is no exception. Therefore, at any time, Wu Shigong, the backbone of the Runing Battalion, must not lose confidence!
