Chapter 284: Xiahou Lan treats guests

Chen Yuan and Gao Feng are really people who can do things!

In just a few days, the Prime Minister's Mansion not only pasted every gate of the eight counties under the rule of Changshan State, but also gradually saw the order in towns and pivotal intersections outside the city.

It can be said that the Prime Minister's Mansion's talent search order, like a virus multiplication, began to spread to every corner of Changshan Country!

In the afternoon of this day, a young man from Zhaojiazhuang in Zhending County, Changshan returned from a long journey, passed through the town, saw the order on the bulletin board, and said secretly in his heart: "Chen Gong was originally the governor of Yanmen County, and at this time he moved to Changshan State Minister, it seems that Changshan Country has finally been included in the rule of General Zhenbei, and it is time to go to recruitment." ”

"Zilong, it's a good year for you to go this time, what's the matter, doesn't your master still allow you to go out?" A familiar voice came from behind him.

Zhao Yun didn't need to look back, he knew that it was Xiahou Lan, a fellow countryman he had known since childhood!

Xia Houlan, Zi Bozheng, three years older than Zhao Yun, 26 years old this year, often practiced with Zhao Yun, who liked to practice martial arts and was quite talented, when he was a child. It's just that later, after Zhao Yun was accepted as a disciple by the marksmanship master Tong Yuan, they saw each other less.

Although Zhao Yun came to adulthood, he would occasionally come back. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the two also led their neighbors to fight against the Yellow Turban thieves and made a big name. Zhao Yun was also favored by the superiors and hoped to serve in the county as a military officer, but unfortunately Zhao Yun's master thought that Zhao Yun's martial arts were not enough and did not allow him to go out.

Now, Xia Houlan's martial arts are getting farther and farther away from Zhao Yun. When Zhao Yun came back last year, he had already been promoted to the rank of heaven-level generals, but Xiahou Lan was still at the yellow-level strength. Therefore, the two no longer mentioned the matter of discussion.

But Xiahou Lan's talent is mainly not in martial arts, he has been reading and studying since he was a child, especially like books on the law. Although he was born in a poor family and had no chance to be an official, because he and Zhao Yun made some names in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they were quite respected among the townships and towns, and they were often invited by the governor to help temporarily in the townships, and they were very familiar with the government.

In the past few years, when Zhao Yun was apprenticed abroad, his brothers, sisters-in-law and sisters at home were often taken care of by him.

"Brother Bozheng, do you want to go home? We just happened to talk while walking. Zhao Yun turned to Xiahou Lan and found that he was carrying a large piece of meat in his hand, and said with a smile, "Yes, my sister-in-law and eldest nephew have a good mouth again." ”

Xiahou Lan has good martial arts, and sometimes she can work as a temporary worker in a government office, with some extra income, so she is much better financially than Zhao Yun's family, and even when she often buys meat, she gives Zhao Yun's family a little bit and feeds Zhao Yun's young sister.

"Wait, Zilong, you carry the meat first, I'll go buy a pot of wine, it's rare for you to come back, let's have two cups of good drink!" Xiahou Lan handed the meat to Zhao Yun, turned around and walked towards the wine shop.

Zhao Yun was not polite, calmly took the meat, and waited in the distance.

——————————

Zhao Yun and Xiahoulan's two families are only more than 100 meters apart, and at dusk, after the two arrived at home, Xiahoulan specially invited Zhao Yun's brother Zhao Feng and sister Zhao Yu to go to his house for dinner in the evening.

Zhao Yun's elder brother Zhao Feng, one year younger than Xiahou Lan, 25 years old this year, has been frail and sickly since he was a child, unlike Zhao Yun, who has a talent for martial arts, but is taught by his mother to read and write. He himself is also a poor and happy character, usually ploughing the fields and studying at home, and has not yet married a wife and had children. One is that because his family is not wealthy, the daughters of ordinary families look down on him, and the other is afraid that if his wife is not virtuous, he will wronged his sister.

Zhao Yun's sister Zhao Yu is 14 years old this year and belongs to the posthumous son. Her father died before she was born, and her mother followed him when she was 5 years old, and has been raised by her brother ever since. Maybe it's not like the two elder brothers, who have been enlightened by their parents since they were children, so they have a jumpy temperament, don't like red makeup and love arms, every time Zhao Yun goes home, she pesters Zhao Yun to teach her martial arts.

Although Zhao Yun can't teach his sister without the permission of his master, he has taught a lot of other martial arts, and Zhao Yu herself has a lot of talent for martial arts, and now, her martial arts have surpassed Xiahou Lan and advanced to Xuan-level strength.

As the saying goes, the poor are rich in martial arts, although Zhao Yun's resources for practicing martial arts are basically provided by his master, but Zhao Xue is mainly supported by his two elder brothers, which is also the most important reason why the Zhao family is still poor.

"Hello sister-in-law, I'm here again!" Zhao Yu didn't wait for the two brothers to enter the door, and ran to the front alone.

Because Zhao Yun went home to wash up for a while, when the three brothers and sisters of the Zhao family entered the door, the pot of Xiahou Lan's house already emitted a fragrant smell of meat.

"There's no sincerity at all, if you want to come over to help, why don't you come over first, it's almost cooked, so it sounds so good?" When Xiahou Lan's wife Huang heard this, she wiped her right hand on the bib on her body, gently patted Zhao Yu's head, and said with a smile.

Although Xia Houlan's wife Huang is also from a poor family, she is quite literate, gentle and virtuous, and usually takes care of Zhao Yun's family, especially Zhao Yu, who is like her own sister, so the relationship between the two families has become more and more close since Xia Houlan got married.

"Isn't this afraid that my brother will scold others for being greedy? Sorry to come early! Zhao Yu muttered.

Huang smiled, touched Zhao Yu's little head, did not continue to entangle with her, saw Zhao Feng and Zhao Yun enter the door, and greeted with a smile, "Ziwen, Zilong, come in, they are all their own family, sit casually." ”

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome, we'll greet ourselves, what about the little nephew?" Zhao Yun raised the gadget in his hand, his eyes swept around, and he didn't see Xiahou Lan's son.

"In the backyard, he just grabbed him everywhere, and his father had to take him to the backyard. You don't have to break the bank, you don't have to spoil the child. Huang said.

"How is it possible, my little nephew is four years old, and I don't have a few toys yet." Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, you're busy, we're going to the backyard." Zhao Feng also replied, and walked to the backyard with Zhao Yun, leaving only Zhao Yu to accompany the Huang family.

——————————

Zhao Yun and the other three accompanied Xiahoulan's child Xiahoude to play for a while, Zhao Yu rushed into the backyard and shouted: "Sister-in-law told you to eat!" While shouting, he came over to hug Xiahoude, and Xiahoude was so frightened that he hid behind his father.

"You must have bullied your little nephew, otherwise why would he be so afraid of you?" Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"Come on Xiao Dezi, come here, my aunt will give you candy to eat!"

Charhoud didn't react at all.

"Is it funny that you cheat like this every day?" Zhao Feng scolded with a smile.

"Really? The next time my aunt buys so much sugar, if she doesn't come back, she really won't give it to you!" Zhao Yu said as he drew a large circle in the air in front of him with both hands. Seeing that Xia Houde swallowed his saliva "grunt", he finally hesitated to rub against Zhao Yu.

Xia Houlan and the other three couldn't help but laugh when they saw it.
