Chapter 16 My brother is a good man
After Fan Xiwen had eaten, it was already evening, and there was no entertainment in ancient times. The only thing you can do at night is to drink, watch singing and dancing, visit the green house, or sleep with your wife.
Fan Xiwen had just had dinner, and drinking or something could be completely ignored; And watching the song and dance, there are nearly 100 people in the group who don't even bring a maid, who will dance to show you? As for visiting the Qinglou, isn't Fan Xiwen's face lost at the door of the Qinglou big enough today?
The only thing I could do was sleep and say nothing that night.
Early the next morning, there was a knock on the door, "Bang bang." "It's a small sound, but it's disturbing to your dreams. At this time, Fan Xiwen was dreaming of what he was doing with Da Qiao, and he was suddenly interrupted, and he was holding back a fire in his heart.
"Sting." The door was opened by Fan Xiwen roughly, and a pair of small hands stayed in the air.
At the door stood a little boy of only seven years old, with a round face inlaid with two large and round eyes, sometimes flickering, revealing a lovely demeanor, and for a while his eyes turned left and right, blinking very cleverly, and a dexterous little mouth under his high upturned nose. It's cute, and it's also very clever.
"Kid, who are you looking for?" Facing a child, Fan Xiwen's anger couldn't be released at all, so he had to resist the urge to flatten people in his heart.
"Brother, I was kicked out of the family." As if he hadn't heard Fan Xiwen's question, the child threw himself directly into Fan Xiwen's arms and cried loudly.
······
"What's going on?" Fan Xiwen blurted out the question in his heart.
"Shenma? Brother, have you ever seen Shenma? As soon as the little boy heard this, his curiosity immediately came up, and he couldn't even bother to cry.
"Well, my brother means to ask why you were kicked out of the family?" In the face of such a cute little boy, Fan Xiwen's anger also slowly calmed down, and he said very compassionately.
"My mother doesn't want me anymore, and my father doesn't want me anymore." This is good, the little boy threw himself into Fan Xiwen's arms again and cried bitterly, and the Confucian robe that Fan Xiwen only changed yesterday afternoon became a hundred flowers again.
"Then why don't your mother and father want you anymore?" Fan Xiwen reluctantly let the little boy pounce in his arms, and then gently comforted the little boy with his hand.
"My mother went far away when I was born, and my father said he would never come back. My father said last night that he wanted me to come to my eldest brother and said that he wanted me to live with him in the future. The little boy sobbed.
"Well, that's pitiful." Fan Xiwen listened to the first half of the little boy's narration, and immediately felt infinite sympathy for him, but when he listened to the second half, his face was quite good-looking. "Your father wants you to come to me? And then you want to live with me? Fan Xiwen pointed to himself with his right hand and asked in surprise.
"Yes." The little boy nodded forcefully.
"Your father, know me?" Fan Xiwen asked again, in fact, he already had the answer in his heart, who else did this kind of thing except for the unscrupulous Liu Xi he met yesterday? Besides, the three questions asked by Liu Xi yesterday, Fan Xiwen can be understood as testing whether Fan Xiwen is able to educate his children well.
"My father said that the eldest brother is a good teacher and will educate Xuan'er to become a talent, and he also said that he is going to find his mother." The little boy continued to speak pitifully.
······
Early in the morning, it was the second time that the black line appeared. Liu Xi is really going to find the little boy's mother, let's go to heaven to find it! What kind of business is this? It's completely to take care of Xiao Liu Xuan for him for the rest of his life.
Have you ever met a father who asked someone else to help take care of his child after only one day of meeting? This is simply a model of unscrupulous fathers.
"Your father is going to find your mother, would you like to live with your brother?" Fan Xiwen was also overflowing with sympathy at this time, so he hugged Xiao Liu Xuan in his arms and asked.
"My brother is a good person, Xuan'er is willing." Saying that, Xiao Liu Xuan rushed into Fan Xiwen's arms again, and scratched Fan Xiwen's white Confucian robe again, Fan Xiwen's Confucian robe had changed, so he didn't talk about it.
"Young master, this kid is so cute, where did he come from?" Huzi ran out to take a look after hearing the movement, and saw Xiao Liu Xuan crying in Fan Xiwen's arms, as a simple and honest stupid big man, Huzi also maintained absolute sympathy. Seeing that Xiao Liu Xuan was crying a little miserable, he said it.
"His name is Liu Xuan, and he will be our little brother in the future, remember not to bully him. If anyone dares to bully him, don't blame us for cleaning him up. Fan Xiwen's words completely made those guards who heard Huzi's movements and wanted to come out dumbfounded, it's only been a matter of a few minutes, and our young master has an extra little brother. Looking at it like that, it's still a very favored master, and you have to have a good time.
"Okay, Huzi, you take Xuan'er down first, and I'll change my robe and come right away." Fan Xiwen turned around and closed the door again, feeling sad in his heart. Sympathy has overflowed, so he accepted a little brother, and it is not a big deal to accept a little brother, but this little brother and his father are virtuous and like to make other people's white robes.
Of course, little Liu Xuan is still not as thick-skinned as his father Liu Xi, at least at the moment when Fan Xiwen turned around, Liu Xuan's face was as red as an apple, and the child who knew his mistake was a good child.
In Luoyang, in a certain residence, in fact, a two-story restaurant opposite Fan Xiwen's Longmen Inn, the unscrupulous father Liu Xi and a rather mediocre-looking middle-aged man stood at the window, looking at Liu Xuan.
"My lord, is this really good? Is it too hasty to hand over the son to a small county magistrate who has never met before? The middle-aged man asked cautiously with a little concern for Liu Xuan, yes, be careful.
"Master Yue, I know that you are afraid that Fan Xiwen will bully He'er, but although I think that Fan Xiwen is a little improper, he is still a decent gentleman." There was a hint of reluctance in Liu Xi's eyes, who would rest assured that his son would follow a stranger out of his sight? It's just that Liu Xi's situation is special, and he has to do it.
"But ·····" The man wanted to say something more, but he didn't speak anymore, since his master had already made a decision, it was impossible to change it.
"Master Yue, please go and protect Xiahe'er! If Fan Xiwen treats He'er badly, then you can take He'er away from the Central Plains and go to seclusion! Liu Xi said calmly, this is the only thing he, a father, can do for his son, it's really sad.
"No. The more you will live up to the trust of the lord. The man hugged his fist towards Liu Xi and responded to Liu Xi's request. That's right, Liu Xi's tone just now was a request, a father's request.
"Get lost!" Liu Xi waved his hand at the man and said.
"Take care, lord." The man said with a fist clasped towards Liu Xi again, and then turned to leave.
Liu Xi's face looked very tired at this time, older than when Fan Xiwen saw him yesterday, obviously Liu Xi was also very difficult for such a determination.
"Perhaps, I'll be able to come to you soon!" Liu Xi said to himself while holding his chest.
