Daming: What abandoned baby?That is the grandson of the old Zhu family!

While the two were chatting, the servant who had just led the way suddenly ran up.

"My lord, the court suddenly sent someone to deliver a letter saying that there is something urgent to do, and I want to beat someone and go back quickly."

Liu Ju frowned, turned his head and apologized to Zhu Xiongying, "I'm really sorry, I wanted to catch up with you Huaiying today, but I didn't expect it to fail."

Zhu Xiongying waved his hand: "It's nothing, the court affairs are the most important thing, Brother Liu, go back quickly."

"Then forgive me for not being with you. I will treat you to a drink another day."

Zhu Xiongying nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then wait for the good news from Brother Liu."

"it is good."

The two parted, Zhu Xiongying stood on a high place and looked out, the carriage gradually drove out of sight, the rolling mountains reached the place out of sight, and the peach blossoms on some high mountains had just sprouted buds.

In April, the peach blossoms of the mountain temple begin to bloom.

Zhu Xiongying smiled brightly, turned around and went back to the study.

"Your husband has gone back, you can leave school early today, go home for dinner." Zhu Xiongying said to the seven or eight children who were studying inside.

When the children heard that they could go to school earlier, they were so happy that they filed out immediately, skipped down the hill and went home.

There was only one small child who sat blankly on the tufted fu and didn't understand.

Zhu Xiongying was a little strange.

Walked over to him and asked him, "My child, why don't you go home?"

The kid looked about six or seven years old, with big black eyes, and looked very clever. He first looked at Zhu Xiongying, then at Xu Zhirong behind him, and finally at his sleeve with a hole in it.

Zhu Xiongying waited for a long time before hearing the child say in a very low voice: "Mister said he would give me a book, but he left first..."

The child's eyes are clear, without any impurities, which makes Zhu Xiongying feel inexplicably comfortable.

Having been involved in the filthy battles in this world for too long, Zhu Xiongying has long been tired of the treacherous people and intrigues.

"Your husband has important things to do, so he went back early, and he will definitely remember to bring it to you another day."

The child looked at Zhu Xiongying ignorantly, apparently not understanding the "important thing" Zhu Xiongying said, but he knew that his husband would still give him a book another day.

So the child immediately changed into a smiling face, rolled up his schoolbag and carried it on his back, and was about to leave. He smiled and bowed to Zhu Xiongying: "Big Brother, Big Sister, I'll go first!"

Xu Zhirong noticed that when the child stood up, he was only wearing a pair of worn-out cloth shoes, and the holes were filled with grain and grass. Although spring was coming to an end soon and the weather was getting hotter, the mountain was The terrain is relatively high, and it is still a bit cold. Erchuan, a seven or eight-year-old child, wears torn shoes, and his little feet must be red from the cold.

It must be that the family is really poor, and they can't even afford a pair of good shoes for their children. Now Xu Zhirong can't help feeling distressed after seeing it.

"Wait." Xu Zhirong called to stop the child, "Where does your family live? It's so far away? It's getting dark now, are your parents coming to pick you up?"

The child has a good impression of this beautiful and gentle elder sister. Hearing Xu Zhirong's question, he replied without hesitation: "My family doesn't live down the mountain, I live on the mountain. Every time I walk half an hour after school, I'm Mother will wait for me at home."

Zhu Xiongying frowned. Half an hour's journey would be enough for an adult to walk down. A child of seven or eight years old must be used to walking so easily.

Children from poor families have to endure hardship since childhood. Zhu Xiongying naturally understands this. Although he was lucky enough to be raised in a wealthy family in this life, before he came to this world, he was just an ordinary student. I am not rich, so I have seen the heartache of the poor people at the bottom.

"Half an hour..." Xu Zhirong pursed his lips.

She couldn't bear to see this little child.

"Brother Huaiying, why don't we send this child back, I'm afraid it will be even colder on the mountain later, I don't worry about it."

Zhu Xiongying knew that Xu Zhirong was kind-hearted, and he had the same intention, so he nodded in agreement.

The two took the child home together.

"What's your name?" Zhu Xiongying took the child's schoolbag and carried it on his shoulder, stretching out one hand to hold the child.

"My name is Yuan Bao. My father said that a humble name is easy to support, so he gave me such a name." Yuan Bao seemed a little proud when talking about his father.

Zhu Xiongying nodded, the folks seem to have this "tradition" all the time.

Xu Zhirong also took him by the hand, and smiled when he heard this: "Yuan Bao seems to adore Daddy."

"Yes, my father is very powerful! He can kill a wild boar with one arrow! My mother said that my father is the most powerful person in the world!" Yuan Bao talked endlessly about how powerful his father was, with a very serious expression on his face. Complacent.

Zhu Xiongying guessed that this boy Yuan Bao should be a well-loved child, so he had such an innocent and romantic temperament.

The three of them chatted and laughed all the way until they reached the highest point of Lishan Mountain. The pear blossoms here were in full bloom, and the white and powder mixed together, looked like a colorful cloud from a distance.

Yuan Bao picked a large bouquet of flowers and said that he wanted to take them back to his mother, and ran down the hill happily.

Xu Zhirong hadn't walked the mountain road, and as the terrain got colder and colder, he gradually felt a little tired.

Zhu Xiongying said he wanted to carry her, but Xu Zhirong didn't agree.

After running for a while, Yuan Bao stopped and waited for Zhu Xiongying and the two of them. Today they walked for about an hour after half an hour's journey.

After walking for a long time, I finally saw a thatched hut on the mountain road.

"Daddy!" Yuan Bao rushed into the room and shouted to the man lying on the bed.

The man opened his eyes in a daze, took a breath, and tried to pull out a smile: "Yuanbao is back?"

"Yeah!" Yuan Bao nodded emphatically, "I've got a big brother and a big sister back!"

The man followed his son's line of sight, and saw a man and a woman in gorgeous clothes standing in front of the door. The woman was as beautiful as a fairy, but the man next to him was even more extraordinary, with a faint regal air. Rubbing his eyes, he put his hands on the bed and sat up with his upper body.

"Who are these two?"

Zhu Xiongying walked over and said with a cordial smile: "My surname is Xu, and I am a good friend of Mr. Yuan Bao's teacher. Seeing that it was getting late today, I was worried that it would be unsafe for the child to walk alone at night, so I sent Yuan Bao back."

The man glanced at Zhu Xiongying gratefully: "Thank you both."

Zhu Xiongying's eyes moved down a little, and when he saw the man's two legs, one side of which was sunken by the quilt, Zhu Xiongying immediately understood what the situation in this house was like.
