The Liu family of Zhuojun has been scattered in Zhuo County for many years, even if there has been no big man who has been in the prime minister for many years, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and he is still a big family in Zhuo County by virtue of the name after the Han Dynasty.

Liu Bei hasn't gone out to hang out these days, he's waiting for a big event.

On this day, he ate a bowl of bean rice at home, holding a wooden bowl in his hand, and was thinking about whether to have another bowl.

"Ah Bei, after dinner, I went to your uncle Yuanqi, yesterday he told me that you are not young now, it is time to find you a gentleman to teach you some books. It just so happens that he is looking for a gentleman for Ah Cheng in the next few days, and you can just be with Ah Quan. ”

Liu Yan and Liu Yuanqi are Liu Bei's uncles, and they are also one of the few people in the Liu clan in Zhuo County who are optimistic about Liu Bei. A few years ago, Liu's father was newly mourned, and Liu Bei's mother and son lived in poverty, thanks to Liu Yan's help from time to time, which allowed them to survive.

Liu Bei hurriedly put down the wooden bowl in his hand and wiped his hands with the long clothes on his body.

"Yes."

Mother Liu continued: "Your uncle has helped us a lot over the years, and if you come out in the future, you can't forget the kindness of others." It's one thing for people to give kindness and don't want to repay it, but it's another thing for us to take it to heart. ”

Liu Bei was sitting tightly, his hands on his knees, "Don't dare to forget." ”

Seeing him like this, Mother Liu was angry for some reason, picked up the broom at the door and swept towards Liu Bei.

Liu Bei hurriedly dodged left and right, very embarrassed.

After a while, the woman, perhaps tired, put down her broom and sat down on the steps of the inner room.

Liu Bei shook his sleeves and shook off the dust on his body, after all, there was only this one gown.

"Since you were a child, you have been different from the children next to you, and the clansmen have said that you are frivolous, and I often tell you how Ah Cheng is. But my mother knows that you have great ambitions in your heart, and you are a person who can do great things in the future. It's just that the person who did great things became the lintel of the Liu family. If you are defeated, most of them will not be able to save their lives, and they will break down the house. Nowadays, the Han family is like this, it is easy to do bad things, but it is not easy to do good things. ”

The woman's voice was soft, "As a parent, I am always afraid that my children will not be promising, but I am also afraid that my children will be too promising. ”

Liu Bei was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Mother......"

The woman waved her hand and didn't let him continue, "When your father died, I asked the elders of the clan to write for you, just hoping that you can have the ability in the future. ”

Liu Bei suddenly said: "Mother, if what I do in the future will implicate the Liu family of Zhuojun, will Mother blame me?"

"A major matter involving the Liu family?" The woman smiled and said, "It is your ability to do that kind of great thing, my child, no matter how great it is, it must be a good thing." If a man doesn't die, he will be famous. You should know the old things of Fan Fan back then. If you are Fan Fan, how can your mother not be Fan Fan's mother? ”

Liu Bei gave a deep salute and was silent.

The woman pulled the white hair of her sideburns, "You are the son of the Liu family, you have the blood of Gaozu on your body, and you were born to do great things." Don't think about me. ”

She got up and took a few steps forward, carefully looking at Liu Bei's eyebrows.

She suddenly laughed, her voice was gentle, "My family has been beautiful since she was a child, and I don't know if my mother will have a chance to see you start a family and become famous." ”

……

After breakfast, Liu Bei got up and went to Liu Yan's house.

After going out, he first leaned against the wall next to him, his chest heaving, and he pressed his chest with one hand.

Although he came through time, after so many years, he has already regarded Liu Bei's mother as his own mother.

He was silent for a while, and then walked towards Liu Yan's house.

Liu Yan's family is a wealthy family in Zhuo County, otherwise they would not often help their mother and son.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, there was no surplus food at home, and there were not a few people who sold themselves to large families as attachments and slaves for a bite to eat.

Liu Yan's family and Liu Bei's family are not far away. In Zhuo County, the Liu family lives next to each other, and whoever has an accident has a good time to take care of it.

He went up and knocked.

A moment later, a young man answered.

"Abei, you're here."

The young man was handsome, looking only thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in a long robe, thin, and pinned with a bamboo slip around his waist, he looked like a little Confucian from a distance.

Seeing this, Liu Bei smiled and said, "Ah Quan, what day is today?" Why are you still dressed up? ”

On weekdays, although Liu Cheng is not mixed with those rangers all day long like him, he has never been a serious pedant dressed up.

Liu Cheng lowered his voice, "Ah Bei, be quiet, there is a guest at home today, and now he is in the back room, I heard that it is a big person, and my father and he are careful in their words." ”

"Big shots?" Liu Bei touched his chin.

Although the Liu family of Zhuojun is not a local wealthy family, after all, it still has the name of a Han family, what kind of big man will Liu Yan be if he can be cautious?

"Daddy said that when you come, he wants me to take you in, I think it is mostly related to our study."

Liu Bei nodded, and was pulled by Liu Cheng towards the house.

Liu Yanzheng was waiting outside the door, and when he saw the two coming in, he hurriedly greeted them.

He whispered to Liu Bei: "Ah Bei, this time it's a big man, and it's also our Han clan relatives." Later, you and Ah Cheng should be careful when talking. ”

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and nodded blankly, he had never thought of who the big man Liu Yan was talking about.

Liu Yan led the two into the back room.

In the room, a person was holding his hands, looking at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and nodding from time to time.

When he saw the crowd come into the house, he turned around.

Liu Bei looked up and saw that this person was thin, with a lot of patches on his long clothes, a few long beards under his chin, and his temples were already a little white, but his eyes were deep, and at a glance, they were full of vicissitudes.

This person also looked Liu Bei and the others up and down a few times.

He said with a smile: "With a tall appearance, he is worthy of being a disciple of my Liu family, Yuan Qi, my Liu family has so many talents."

This person spoke easily, but Liu Yan didn't dare to exaggerate, and said with a smile: "Liu Tingshi is too famous, and the younger generation is not yet a weapon."

Liu Bei suddenly remembered someone.

The man smiled: "I think you don't know me, since I came to Youzhou, this is the first time I have come to Zhuoxian." My name is Liu Bo'an, and now I am ashamed of the history of Youzhou. ”

Liu Bei looked up suddenly, and sure enough, it was Liu Yu.
