In a dilapidated house in the east of the city, a very beautiful girl was skillfully cooking, when a stream of heat came out of the pot, and the room became mist, adding a touch of mysterious beauty to the girl's slender figure.

The pretty face was scorched with a few red halos, like a red moon hidden in the clouds, looming.

Wisps of cooking smoke floated from outside the hut, and the aroma of rice surrounded the house, wrapped in cold air, straight into the noses of passers-by, leading pedestrians to look into the distance, smacking their lips hungrily.

Zhu Tong walked through the crowd and was walking towards his yard, gently pushed open the courtyard door, and slid his body in, and the family dog saw Zhu Tong come in and wagged his tail and rubbed over.

Zhu Tong deliberately lowered his pace, tiptoed to the door, pushed open the door little by little, poked his head in first, and the puppy got in through the gap.

"I'm back!" At the same time of shouting, the whole body was squeezed in in an instant, the aroma of the nose, the wet air wave wrapped around him, and the bright face of his sister flickered, but he could see her innocent smile clearly, and the two little tiger teeth were the most obvious.

"Brother!" Jiang Pan ran over with a smile, Zhu Tong didn't stand up, he tripped over a dog, stumbled, and almost fell backwards, slowed down, and when he saw his sister, a warmth suddenly rose in his heart.

Although my father-in-law has passed away, I have a family when I have relatives.

Brother will take care of you and will never let anyone bully you!

"You're finally back!" Jiang Pan said, the naughty in the past instantly turned into sensible, and now his brother is the only relative in the world, as long as there is a brother in her who is still a child, there are still people who hurt, and she can still be naughty.

During the time when her brother entered the palace, she had been restless, for fear that something would happen to her brother and she would never return, but fortunately, it was a false alarm, and her brother had loved her since she was a child, and she never let other children bully her.

Zhu Tong patted his chest, smiled, and said, "Isn't this coming back, safe and sound, rest assured!" ”

Smelling the fragrant food, Zhu Tong leaned over and said, "Become diligent today!" ”

Jiang Pan pulled out the chair, pressed Zhu Tong to the chair and said, "I've always been very diligent, and I've been tired for a day." ”

turned around and personally filled a bowl of rice for his brother, although the food was simple, Zhu Tong ate so deliciously, the brother and sister chatted while eating.

"Brother has already arranged my father's funeral, Liu San, who sells longevity materials in the west of the city, will transport longevity materials over in a few days, and other things are also ready." Zhu Tong swallowed the last bite of rice and choked up.

In the morning, Tang He gave Zhu Tong some silver money, and he gave it directly to the owner of the coffin shop in the west of the city, and he had told Liu San before that he would use that piece of nanmu to make longevity wood, for fear that he would think that he did not have so much money and regret selling it to others.

Hearing his brother talk about his father, Jiang Pan's expression became sad again, his mother died early, it was his father who pulled him up with a handful of and urine, and he hadn't honored his father well, but his father left me and left.

Zhu Tong saw that his sister was a little sad, patted her shoulder and immediately comforted: "Pan'er, don't be sad, there is brother, brother will take care of you." ”

After the meal, the brother and sister had just cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and there was a dog barking in the yard, followed by a noisy sound, and it was clearly audible that the neighbors were talking around.

After a while, the courtyard gate was pushed open, and a group of people dressed as officials carried a mouthful of golden silk nanmu longevity and carried many funeral supplies into the courtyard, led by Xu Da, Tang and the two.

Seeing this, Zhu Tong hurriedly came out to greet the two, but when he saw this scene, he was surprised for a while, how could the dignified Duke of Wei and Duke Xin actually send a coffin to me as a grass person, it was incredible, and the sister on the side was even more at a loss with lovely eyes in a daze.

"Xiao Langjun, we meet again! We are ordered to arrange the burial of your father-in-law," Xu Da said with a smile, waving his hand to signal his subordinates to start working.

Tang He on the right side of Xu Da smacked his mouth and said, "Big... Baby! Leave these little things to the people below! ”

Zhu Tong was stunned and didn't say a word, although the things he encountered in the palace made him feel a little strange, but now this situation is not a strange thing to describe.

The sister on the side watched this scene in shock, turned her head and asked Zhu Tong in a low voice: "Brother, didn't you say Liu Mazi?" It's a little different from what you said..."

Zhu Tong shook his head helplessly and replied: "Brother doesn't know, maybe it's because of the merit of Queen Gezhi, and the emperor rewarded it." ”

Soon, with the appearance of Xu Da and Tang He, the gate of Zhu Tong's courtyard was surrounded by large and small spectators and neighbors, and they were talking about the incredible thing in front of them.

"Wow! Did I hear me right? The emperor ordered to arrange the funeral for Uncle Jiang? An older woman asked, surprised.

An old man exclaimed. "I've seen this big official in front of me! It's the Faith of the Kingdom! ”

"What? Believe in the country! That's not a small deal! ”

The neighbors were amazed by this scene. "Tong'er, how can this young man have such a great ability, let the emperor make an order...!"

Hospital,

Xu Da looked at Jiang Pan for a while, and asked Zhu Tong, "This little girl is your sister-in-law, right?" She's a good girl. ”

"My lord, it's my sister." Zhu Tong replied, deliberately emphasizing that she was her sister, and in his eyes, Pan'er was her sister and the only relative.

Xu Da looked at Zhu Tong and smiled, and nodded thoughtfully.

......

The officials were very neat, and soon Zhu Tong's father-in-law was buried.

Zhu Tong and Jiang Pan brothers and sisters were dressed in coarse linen clothes, kneeling in front of the tombstone, Zhu Tong lifted the white cloth in front of his face, and sprinkled a bowl of wine on his father-in-law in front of the grave.

A cold wind blew, and it was also in such a cold weather that my father-in-law took me in, and who will take in my father-in-law's lonely soul today.

"Father-in-law, go in peace! The child will definitely take good care of her sister, and will not let her suffer a little grievance, the child will thank you for raising her, without your child may not be alive today. ”

"Father, rest in peace, the child will surely get ahead, and comfort your old man's spirit in heaven."

Xu Da and Tang He, who were standing on the side, saw that the eldest prince was so filial, and he was as affectionate and righteous as he was when he was on the throne, it was like a mold carved out, especially the tenacity of not admitting defeat, which was too similar.

"Second brother, look at our eldest nephew, although he is down, his tenacity is not weak at all, he is a good seedling who does great things!" Xu Da whispered and discussed with Tang He.

Tang He said solemnly: "You don't look at whose son it is, we are on top!" Tiger father has no dog! ”
