Chapter 20: Family
"How can this work!" Li Xiaolian disagreed with Zhao Zhong's departure, and said, "Xiao Yu has been stubborn since he was a child, this year must have bothered Mr. ”
In the face of the old lady's kindness, Zhao Zhong couldn't help but show embarrassment on his face, after all, the disciple's mother was so enthusiastic to entertain, and if she still refused, it seemed too ruthless, and she couldn't help but hesitate a little, thinking about how to refuse.
Chen Shanshui saw everything in his eyes, and hurriedly took his mother's slender jade hand and said: "Mother, the master really has something to go to Beijing this time, but after a while, when the master is done, he will naturally come to our house, and then the mother will entertain him well." ”
Saying that, Chen Shanshui pointed to Zhao Hu, who had been confused, and said: "Mother, this is the child's senior brother Zhao Hu, and he is also the master's son, and the child is like a brother. ”
Zhao Zhong arched his hand and said: "Yes, Hu'er is young, his mother died early, and he can't run around with me, so he wants to foster with the Chen family, but it's really troublesome for Master Chen and Mrs. Chen." ”
"Oh, what a cute child, you look at the tiger's brain, it's much better than my little boy. Li Xiaolian pulled the stunned Zhao Hu, touched his head and said lovingly, "Mr. Zhao is too polite, you call Zhao Hu, then can I call you Hu'er." ”
"Ah!" Zhao Hu looked at his father and Li Xiaolian a little ignorantly, only thinking that his junior brother's mother was really good-looking, and his voice was warm, so he nodded involuntarily.
Looking at Zhao Hu's honest appearance, which is completely opposite to his son who is as smart as a demon, Li Xiaolian couldn't help but like it more and more, her heart moved, and she couldn't help but look up at Zhao Zhong and said: "Mr. Zhao, since Hu'er and Xiaoyu are like brothers, why don't you let Hu'er worship me as a godmother and my master as a godfather, how about it?"
"This, is it appropriate?" Zhao Zhong asked a little dumbfounded.
"How inappropriate. Li Xiaolian said happily, "Since Mr. Zhao doesn't object, then it's decided, master, what do you say." ”
Seeing his daughter-in-law glance at him, Chen Congxin was shocked, and immediately nodded: "Suitable, no more suitable." ”
......
At the gate of Chen's mansion, Zhao Zhong gently hugged Zhao Hu, looked at his tearful son, and couldn't help but say: "Hu'er, in the future, in your junior brother's house, you must not be stubborn, you have to listen to your godmother and godfather, do you know?"
Zhao Hu sobbed, hugged his father tightly and said, "Woo...... Daddy, I, I don't want Daddy to go. ”
Zhao Zhong reluctantly pushed his son away, he didn't want to leave his son, but he knew that he was taking a road of no return, if he couldn't kill the Dog Emperor, he would naturally die, and he might even expose his identity and affect his son and apprentice's family. Even if he kills the emperor, in this Three Kingdoms, although there are wars from time to time, but they have been peaceful for hundreds of years, it is also a stormy event, although the immortal martial arts are large, it is difficult to have a place to stay. His only hope was that he would die with the Dog Emperor and be reduced to powder, making it impossible for people to perceive his identity.
"Zhao Hu, you have grown up, you must know that you take care of yourself. Zhao Zhong stared at his son's eyes and said seriously, "Besides, Daddy will come to see you from time to time when he is free, okay, now go back to your junior brother, Daddy is really leaving." ”
Looking at his father's face, Zhao Hu, who has been accustomed to listening to his father's orders since he was a child, returned to Chen Shanshui with some trepidation, but his eyes were still rippling with tears and his face was full of sadness.
Zhao thanked Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen again. Zhao Zhong arched his hand and said: "Xiao'er will be entrusted to the two, Zhao said goodbye." ”
"Mr. Zhao slowed down...... Walk. ”
Before Li Xiaolian finished speaking, Zhao Zhong had already turned around with the two envoys, and the figure slowly disappeared into the distance.
Looking at Zhao Hu with a sad face, Chen Shanshui comforted: "Senior brother, the master is going to Beijing for something, and it's not that he won't come back, you see, just like the junior brother I left home to learn martial arts from the master, it's not a sad thing, besides, the junior brother just took the senior brother to eat all over the streets and alleys of Qiantang County, senior brother, you look good." ”
Zhao Hu, who was still sad, didn't know if it was because he was comforted by Chen Shanshui, or because the food in Qiantang County was more attractive, there was less sad expression on his face, but there was a little longing in his eyes.
However, the old lady looked at her godson, her face was very happy, and she said with a smile: "Let's go, Hu'er, Xiaoyi, my mother has asked her subordinates to prepare a sumptuous dinner for you, giggles, let you have a good meal." ”
The dinner was really as the old lady said, a big table was full, the old lady was sandwiching the dishes for Zhao Hu, who was still very restrained, and at the same time inquired about Zhao Hu, as well as his father, and even Chen Shanshui in the Canghai faction.
Chen Shanshui was already half-full at this time, and pulled Chen Congxin next to him and whispered: "Dad, I seem to have heard you say that your mother kissed her and she was pregnant, did I hear it wrong?"
Chen Congxin's eyebrows were flying, he was very high-spirited, and replied in a proud whisper: "How could I hear it wrong, hehe, I think my Chen family has been passed down for nine generations, I'm afraid that I will start to spread out here for my father, haha, your grandfather gave birth to me as a father when he is old, and he often scolds him for being a father loser, useless, hehe, what's the matter, now the old man knows underground, son, you say, your grandfather will he be ashamed and embarrassed, hehe, if my father gives me a dream, what kind of tone do you say your father should use to talk to your grandfather, hahaha...... ”
Chen Shanshui couldn't help but be speechless, his father was really, if he gave him three colors, he wanted to open a dyeing workshop, even his grandfather, his father who had been dead for many years, dared to arrange it.
Chen Shanshui couldn't help but think viciously, with his father's temperament, if it weren't for the ninth generation of the Chen family, I am afraid that he would have been beaten to death by his grandfather with a stick back then.
"Dad, I asked you to give Qin Shan fifty taels of silver every month, have you done it. Chen Shanshui thought of the group of little beggars and couldn't help asking, after all, Dad is still very unreliable many times.
Chen Congxin took over the words casually and said: "Dad, you don't feel at ease when I do things, besides, son, you don't know, then Qin Shan comes to the house at the beginning of every month to block your dad and me, do I dare not give it." ”
"Hehe!" Chen Shanshui smiled, "I didn't expect that kid in Qinshan to have a little eyesight, I'm afraid that Dad, your noble family is busy and easy to forget, so I came to pick it up in person." ”
Chen Congxin couldn't help complaining: "Hey, son, you are really, since you want to give them silver, it would be good to give it at one time at that time, why do you have to ask him to come to my father and me every month to receive it, it's really troublesome." ”
Chen Shanshui glanced at his complaining father, and said as a matter of course: "Hehe, if I give him five hundred taels or even a thousand years of silver at once, such a large sum of silver in hand, he is still a little beggar, father, do you think you will be red-eyed?"
Daddy's brain circuit is sometimes a bit big, but I saw that his eyes lit up, and he slipped away very shyly, and said in a low voice: "Isn't it that you have already given that little beggar a large sum of silver, how can this work, how unsafe it is to put so much silver on your body, so that tomorrow Daddy will go and ask for it back, or put Daddy and me safer." ”
Chen Shanshui was really speechless, Dad is really weird, it's just that, since Dad didn't greed the fifty taels of silver that he gave to the little beggars every month, it was no problem to think about it if those little beggars had enough to eat, so he didn't think about it.
Looking up, the old lady and the senior brother seemed to get along very well at this time, the old lady's loving expression, the senior brother's envious eyes, how did she feel a little sour in her heart, which made Chen Shanshui feel a little self-deprecating in her heart, she really lived more and more.
