Uncle, please help the Han family

Seeing these two annoying guys who don't know how to behave, Zhang Miao, as the elder sister, of course can't stand by and watch.

So, holding the hem of the skirt lightly, she walked lightly behind the pair of younger brothers and sisters.

Then, he quickly grabbed their collars from behind and taught them a lesson: "Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao, what are you doing here if you don't read books?"

"?!"

Zhang Liang is the third younger brother, the person in the family who is most afraid of him, so after being caught like this, he immediately coaxed: "Sister——"

"Don't say anything." However, Zhang Bao, the second younger sister, covered his mouth before he finished speaking, and explained to himself pitifully: "Sister Miao, Daddy is talking to Mr. State Shepherd, if at this time If you take us out, you will definitely be beaten to death by your father..."

"State shepherd? Is that the emperor's relative?"

"Yes, I heard that he is the younger brother of the current emperor." Zhang Liang, who is a big kid, said very precociously, "Master Zhou Mu came to visit our father in person, which shows that our father can become a high official."

"Anyway, our father was an official before, and he only retired because the officialdom was too scary at that time. Now that a wise master has come, it's okay for father to come back again." Zhang Bao, who wore a pair of long horn braids, It also speaks in the same way.

"Pfft, do you two still know Mingzhu?"

"Sister, don't laugh, Mr. State Shepherd is really a wise master." I guess I just heard it from the adults, and I don't know what it means, Zhang Liang said seriously, "When Mr. Zhou Mu came, he also took the initiative Bringing the high officials of Youzhou to distribute food to the people."

"Really? That's it."

"Hmm, he—"

"Okay, keep your voice down." Zhang Bao covered Zhang Liang's mouth again, and reminded, "Daddy is chatting with Mr. State Shepherd, so don't let it out."

"Don't expose what, go, don't make trouble here."

Although the two little guys were very reluctant, she insisted on driving them away.

However, after hearing her younger brother say "Mingzhu" a few times, she really wanted to see what Mingzhu was like.

Carefully squatting down, bending behind the screen, she poked her head out and looked at Zhongtang.

Then, one glance 'wrong' for a lifetime.

Unlike the high officials I imagined, this man...

very young.

Also, extremely clean.

It feels like the snow resting on the plum, beautiful and clear.

Even women are rarely so beautiful.

This state shepherd lord perfectly interprets what the meaning of "pianpianjunzi" means.

Hiding behind the screen, she stared blankly for a long time without reacting, until she was caught by her father's gaze and questioned with astonishment, "A Miao, what are you doing?" After that, he immediately retracted his head and hid behind the screen, his cheeks were red.

In the middle hall, that gentle and jade-like man still doesn't know his existence.

If Dad didn't mention it, he would never know his existence for the rest of his life.

So, so...

"So, Auntie took the initiative to greet Uncle Huang in the name of pouring tea?"

The peach blossoms on his face were already in full bloom, and there was a burst of blush. This simple story actually caught the child's eyes.

"Yeah." Zhang Jiao nodded shyly, and continued, "At that time, Dad took advantage of the opportunity to introduce me to Xiangguo. However, it happened to be a year after Mrs. Xiangguo passed away, so...it's a pity."

"Indeed, at that time, Uncle Huang should have no time for this matter."

He is obviously an opponent, but Liu Xie also feels sorry for Zhang Jiao unconsciously.

After all, according to what she said, this was already six years ago.

"...Ah, that's right."

Liu Yu, who listened the whole time, was immersed in Zhang Jiao's eloquent narration. If Liu Xie's emotional CUE hadn't reached him, he might not have gotten out of that story.

What a surprise, Zhang Jiao was the one who took the initiative even if it was a brain supplement.

He even said that he fell in love at first sight because of his handsome face, so he took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

This guy is really bold.

but……

For a person with such a rich and colorful life, Miao Jianjiao's imaginary love story is actually so calm and without twists and turns.

Like all the girls who don't join the army, when someone came to the family and met, Wang Ba saw that Mung Dou had eyes for each other, and finally got better.

Of course, this kind of plainness does make people feel excited.

Especially for these two lonely travelers who have seen too many storms.

"Then, the actual marriage is when..."

In the middle of the story, the narration suddenly changed.

"Uncle?"

Liu Xie obviously didn't react and was stunned, because before the story was finished, Liu Yu took the initiative to take over the topic and started his narration.

But Zhang Jiao was not surprised, just like Liu Yu when he was listening to the story he made up, he pursed his lips lightly and looked at him softly.

Oh, what about your story?

Make it up too, I really want to know.

"Meet her..."

After taking a sip of tea, moistened his throat, raised his head, Liu Yu also started.

…………

"My lord, Fanyang City is ahead, and you will leave Youzhou if you go further south."

"Fan Yangcheng?"

Hearing this place name, Liu Yu suddenly thought of some past events and an old friend.

When he was a state shepherd in Youzhou a few years ago, in order to search for talents, Liu Yu deliberately found a Confucian scholar who had been a postal supervisor, but because of the darkness of the officialdom, he voluntarily retired, hoping to use him as an official.

But at the time of the conversation, because the other party had no ambition to be an official, Liu Yu failed to enlist him.

The two of them just chatted about the customs of Youzhou, the classic works of the predecessors, and...

His beautiful eldest daughter.

Liu Yu remembered.

His old friend has a daughter whose pupils are as blue as gemstones. She can be called a peerless beauty, but the eldest daughter is not dazzling at all.

And at that time, Zhang Gong still wanted to match them up.

It's just that because of the loss of his wife a year ago, he didn't take this kind of thing seriously.

I have to say that the girl's eyes are really beautiful, and her smile can also give people a lot of healing.

It's an exaggeration to say that if you are depressed one day, receiving a smile from her can really make people happy all day.

Since we are going to be stationed in the city today, why don't we just go see that old friend again.

Although most of his daughters have already married as other people's wives and have gone to her husband's house, and even said that they should have children, but...

But how about revisiting the old place for a friend who once talked about calligraphy and painting?

With this in mind, Liu Yu went.

Then, I saw a deserted mansion with grass growing at the door.

"Has this family moved away?"

"Returning to my lord, I just inquired about it. There have been no people living here, because four years ago, the owner of this house suffered a change."

"An accident happened?"

"Yes, I met a bandit when I was visiting relatives."

"Everyone died?"

"No, it's just my lord. I heard...the eldest daughter of the owner and a pair of younger brothers and sisters survived, but they don't live here anymore, but went to their uncle's house."

"Then are they still alive?"

"I don't know that."

"Then his daughter, is she married?"

"It wasn't there when the accident happened, but I don't know it now."

When Liu Yu heard that this old friend who had chatted with him passed away, he felt quite sad, and after hearing that his three children survived the accident, he unconsciously felt a little comforted.

It's like, people can't come back from the dead, and the people who grieve for them are done grieving, but fortunately, it's not the worst outcome.

So the living person, would she still laugh?

Liu Yu wanted to know.

But seeing a woman for no reason, if she has a husband, wouldn't that cause trouble to her marriage?

So, just a quick glance to see how she's been doing lately?

But the army is marching, and it is time to attack Dong Zhuo. It is not good to fish at this time.

Forget it, when you return to Youzhou, let's pass by here and inquire about it.

Things have changed.

Some things are the most beautiful only if they are stored in the cabinet of time as good memories and displayed quietly.

Even if I go...

Even if I go to see...

But then...

"My lord, who are you looking for?"

A farmer with a sickle saw Liu Yu wandering around the gate of a yard all the time, so he came over and asked in confusion.

"Old man, I... I am a friend of Fan Yang Zhanggong."

"What is Mr. Zhang? Haven't heard of it?"

"Then, is there a woman named Zhang Miao here?"

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

It's been four years, even if it takes three years to keep filial piety, she should get married this year.

According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, it is illegal for a woman of this age not to marry, although there are not so many rules in this country.

Forget it, no need, maybe already...

"A Miao, an adult is looking for you."

"Eh?!"

Liu Yu was completely stunned, and when he was about to continue asking questions, a white-haired woman in a peasant uniform came out with a clay pot in her arms.

Sure enough, it was the girl I saw in Zhang Gongfu!

Her appearance didn't change at all, and Liu Yu recognized her at a glance.

But this woman probably doesn't know herself anymore...

"Lord State Shepherd?"

He froze on the spot in astonishment, the clay pot in his hand fell to the ground and smashed to pieces.

Zhang Miao, who startled herself, leaned down while pressing the hem of her skirt, and quickly picked up the fragments with her hands.

"You." At this moment, Liu Yu reached out and grabbed her wrist, "Are you okay?"

"..."

Zhang Miao, who was asked in this way, was silent for a long time.

In the end, he smiled and replied: "Uncle was robbed and killed by bandits, and my younger brother and sister were also hungry during the famine... and got separated. Fortunately, there was an aunt in the countryside who took me in, and the two of us were able to live together."

Obviously, she has experienced too many things before she knew it.

Although he still said to himself with a smile.
