The brothers came out with red eyes, and at the fork in the road to the second room, they met Yaru who was holding Xiao Jiahui. The two hurriedly called their sister-in-law, and bowed their heads to salute.

Yaru looked at the red circles in the eyes of the two brothers, and there was a difference: "Ayu Afan, what's wrong with you, is something wrong?"

Ah Yu remembered that Yaru traveled to the northwest to deliver food and lost a child in the fight, and his heart was even more guilty, and he bowed deeply: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry." Immediately afterwards, Ah Fan also bowed.

Yaru is even more different: "Which one of you brothers are singing?" ”

Ah Yu forced her tears to say goodbye to Yaru, and then walked away quickly. Xiao Jiahui pointed to the direction where the brothers had left and babbled to her mother. Yaru wondered in her heart, what's the matter? Hey, let's ask when Ling Yuanhang comes back. So Aru continued to walk towards Yee On Temple.

Ah Yu and Ah Fan didn't go to their father to ask them, nor did they go to their mother to tell her about it. They returned to Ah Yu's study, the two closed the door, and Ah Fan said: "Second brother, I don't want to go to Guozijian anymore, I want to go to the border to find the third uncle to be a soldier." ”

Ah Yu smiled bitterly and said, "You can just leave, but I'm the eldest son of the second room, and I can't go anywhere." I used to be proud of my origins, but now I feel ashamed. For the title of county king, his father viciously attacked his own brother and nephew. With such a father, we are still enjoying everything that my uncle brought us in the county king's mansion, and I feel that I can't hold my head up. ”

Ah Fan was silent for a while and said, "Otherwise, let's tell our grandmother, let's split up, let's take our father and mother out." ”

Ah Yu sighed and said: "How can you tell your grandmother about this, and how can you tell your mother, if everyone knows about this matter, it will be a shame for our entire county palace, so let's do this for the time being." ”

Ah Fan suddenly remembered King An's words, and he hesitated for a moment to tell Ah Yu about King An inviting him to tea. Now that he knows about his father, he suddenly seems to understand King An's intentions: "That day, King An was also testing me, but I was thinking, he said that his uncle also left the city on the day of his father's accident, could it be that he also knew something?"

Ah Yu thought for a while and said, "No, he just wants to guide your thoughts, and maybe he also wants to provoke the relationship between our second room and the uncle." Or he wants to see if you're worth courting. If he had known that it was the uncle who had mutilated his father, he would have used this trick long ago. ”

"Second brother, I will go to Guozijian tomorrow to resign, I will go to the border as soon as possible, and you will do your filial piety for me at home." As for my father, I won't forgive him, and I won't go back to see him until I'm gone. As he spoke, he shook his head bitterly: "I just feel so sorry for my uncle's family, and I don't know how to face them." ”

Ah Yu patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said heavily: "Third brother, you go, the second brother in the family will bear it." ”

Ah Fan held his brother's hand with his backhand, tightly, tightly, and the brothers were silent for a long time.

Ah Fan left quietly, and after he left, Ah Yu sent the letter he had left for King Lingjun. King Ling Jun read Ah Fan's letter, and his heart welled up with infinite sorrow and relief, this child finally did not choose to be decadent, but chose another path. But anyway, he went to the border, and it was always a good thing to get to the third brother, and after two years, he would also send Ah Xu there.

In Xiao Wu's room, Ling Yuanxu was taking a box of pastries to his aunt: "Auntie, this is the dim sum of the Lin family's shop, and it contains your favorite nut filling." ”

Xiao Wu picked up a piece and took a small bite, only to feel that his mouth was full of crispy fragrance, and couldn't help laughing: "It's delicious, just open this box, don't open that box, send it to your grandmother." “

Ling Yuanxu smiled mischievously: "Auntie, you can eat with confidence, these two boxes are yours, I have already sent my grandmother's to her old man's house, and your son is obedient." How can you forget about grandmother. ”

Xiao Wu hesitated again: "Then, did you send it to the princess?"

Ling Yuanxu smiled: "Auntie, I gave it to the princess and sister-in-law." They have always been very nice to me, how could I not send it. You don't have to worry about it anymore. ”

Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "Xu'er, the identity of the mother can only drag you down, fortunately, I see that your father and your eldest brother really love you, you have grown a lot in the past two years, and now your father has sent you to the Guozijian again, you must study hard and don't let your father down." ”

Ling Yuanxu nodded sensibly: "Auntie, don't worry, Xu'er understands." ”

Ling Yuanxu went to school in Guozijian, and one day every seven days was a rest day, and every time Ling Yuanxu went home, he had to go to his aunt to come and see.

Xiao Wu looked at his sensible son and was very pleased, but fortunately, he realized it early and did not teach his son to learn resentment, otherwise how could he be loved by the prince of the county and the prince now. Xiao Wu felt that he should instruct his son a few more words: "Xu'er, in the future, you have to think and listen to your grandmother's words, some words can be listened to, and some words cannot be heard." ”

Ling Yuanxu tilted his head to look at his aunt: "Auntie, why does grandmother have a bad relationship with my father, grandmother seems to prefer the second uncle's family." ”

Xiao Wu was silent for a moment: "Xu'er, there are some things, I saw it, but don't say it, you just need to remember and listen to your father and eldest brother." ”

Ling Yuanxu looked at his aunt and asked cautiously, "Auntie, why did my father never come to you, did you offend him?" But my father obviously loves Xu'er very much, but why never came to see Xu'er's aunt. ”

Xiao Wu closed his eyes: "Xu'er, you are still young, don't blame your father for this matter, it's your aunt who is not good, so don't inquire anymore." ”

Ling Yuanxu's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to my aunt." Auntie, I heard that the third brother went to the border pass to find the third uncle, and when I reach the third brother's age, I will also go to the border pass to practice, and I also want to be like the eldest brother. ”

Xiao Wu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, Xu'er can go and tell your father if you want to go." He'll let you go. ”

Ling Yuanxu suddenly remembered something: "Auntie, I don't like Mother Yang, I sometimes listen to what she says to my grandmother, and I always feel that she is a person with ulterior motives." I think my grandmother listened to her very much, and depended on her for everything, and the maids in my grandmother's room were more respectful to her than to my grandmother. ”

Xiao Wu sighed and said, "Xu'er, you have really grown up, but don't interfere too much about these things in the inner house as a child." Just read the book well and practice kung fu well. ”

Ling Yuanxu replied obediently: "Yes, auntie, Xu'er knows." ”

Ah Fan's departure caused an uproar in the second room, and the Li family came to the second master Ling's room and cried: "Ah Fan went to the border gate, he must have discussed with you, why don't you stop him and let him go to such a difficult place, if there is something long and two short, what can I do." "Li Shi cried very sadly, she hadn't come to Second Master Ling for many days.

Second Master Ling knew very well in his heart that Ah Fan's departure was inseparable from himself. Ever since Ah Yu heard about his entanglement with King Lingjun, he never came back, not even Ah Fan. He thought that the two brothers must have asked his eldest uncle, and that his eldest brother would tell him everything he had done. His two sons must have complained about themselves and disliked themselves viciously. Did they hate themselves? He couldn't imagine what kind of image and status he had in the minds of his two sons.

Ah Yu has stopped coming to himself in the past few days, and Ah Fan is even more simply, he directly gave up his studies and went to the border in a fit of anger. The second master's heart was very painful and panicked. After all, it was his son, and if his son ignored him, who could he rely on in the future. Second Master Ling no longer lost his temper at anyone these days, and he even became extremely silent, which made everyone who was waiting for him feel very novel.

Now that Li was sitting here crying, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and he thought what would happen to Li if he also knew that he was such a vicious person? Although his wife was selfish, he knew that she was not as ruthless as him, so he never told her about his plot against Dafang. Now that he is facing his wife, he doesn't know how to deal with her questioning, so he can only choose to remain silent.

Li cried for a while, and when she saw that Second Master Ling ignored her, she wiped her tears and walked out, and then she went to the old lady's room and cried for a while.

The old lady has been unable to keep up since her favorite second son was crippled, and then she heard the news that Ah Fan went to the border gate, and the old lady felt dizzy at the time, and the children in the second room were all treasures in the old lady's heart, of course, this had to remove Ah Ke and Xiao Transparent Ah Rong.

After Li left after crying, the old lady shed tears and said: "What kind of sin have I done, first the second child is crippled, and then this child leaves without saying a word, the conditions of the pass over there are so hard, how can he, a rich son who grew up in the capital, stand that sin, go and call me the king of the county, I want the king of the county to write a letter, and quickly chase the sail back." ”

Mother Yang persuaded her: "The third young master has been gone for several days before releasing the news of the border gate, since he left secretly, how could he let others chase him back." Maybe he's halfway there by now. He's so old, and now that he's not fighting, maybe he'll come back after a year and a half there. ”

The old lady held back her tears and said, "But what if that place is going to suddenly fight again? ”

Mother Yang comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Gongzi Xu won't leave without squeaking." ”

The old lady looked at the pastries sent by Ling Yuanxu on the table, wiped away her tears and asked, "Ah Xu doesn't know how he is studying lately, where does he go every time he comes back?"

Mother Yang said: "In addition to coming to you to ask for peace, the fourth prince is to go to the princess of the county to ask for peace." Miss Yuan, then he will go too. Now he went to Miss Ayuan. In a few days, it will be a big gathering in Nan'an Temple, and I will go to ask the third young master for a peace sign, burn pillar incense, and ask the gods and Buddhas to bless him. ”

The old lady felt a little tired, so she said, "Okay, then you can go and get ready, and I want to rest for a while." ”

Mother Yang respectfully closed the door and walked out.
