Rebirth 91, this time I want to be a doctor

Chapter 140 The cousins ​​don’t know each other

It was already the end of the New Year for Liu Xiaochuan to return to his hometown, so the next day he accompanied his parents to his two uncles' houses to deliver holiday gifts. Since Wang Jing was about to give birth, Zhao Lijun and Wang Jing did not go back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year and stayed in the provincial capital. , my uncle’s two cousins ​​are both married, and only the old couple are at home.The second uncle's house was more lively, so Liu Xiaochuan and his family had lunch before going back.

After returning from his uncle's house, Liu Xiaochuan went to the county seat. Although Yu Qingjun and Bai Ling were spending the Spring Festival in Xihai Province this year and would not return to Xinping County, Liu Xiaochuan still wanted to visit Uncle Bai. Both of them were in history. Enthusiasts are friends we never forget.

Liu Xiaochuan only bought some fruits and came to the door. He also brought another big gift, a hardcover version of "Three Kingdoms". The book was not worth much, but Uncle Bai would definitely like it.

Sure enough, Liu Xiaochuan's gift was very popular with Uncle Bai.There was an old man visiting Uncle Bai's house, and the two were drinking tea and chatting. The old man heard that Uncle Bai said that Liu Xiaochuan was familiar with history, and saw that he had given him a copy of "Three Kingdoms", so he insisted on testing Liu Xiaochuan and asked: " Young man, you must have watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", tell me, why didn't Guan Yu surrender to Cao Cao?"

Liu Xiaochuan was happy, "Since you asked, let me just say a few words. There must be many reasons for this. Let me tell you one that is not well known to everyone. In fact, Guan Yu and Cao Cao are love rivals, and they have a hatred of taking their wives. .”

"Young man, don't you dare say such nonsense! Where did you get this unofficial history?"

"I really don't know if it is an unofficial history. There is indeed no record in this "Three Kingdoms", but there are relevant records in "Shu Ji", "Wei Lue" and "Huayang Guo Zhi": The First Lord accompanied Cao Gong to surround Xiapi. Guan Yu called Bai Gong and said, 'My wife has no children, so I came down to the city to beg for a good wife.' Cao Gong suspected that she had a strange color, so when the city was destroyed, he looked at it and found that it had a strange color, so he kept it for himself."

Liu Xiaochuan further explained: "When the three Liu Bei brothers followed Cao Cao to attack Lu Bu, Lu Bu sent his subordinate Qin Yilu to Yuan Shu to move reinforcements. Yuan Shu saw that Qin Yilu was a talented person, so he stayed in his tent and took care of him, and then married him. A Han Dynasty clan daughter is his wife. Qin Yilu's original wife, Du Shi, is still in Xiapi. Du Shi is very beautiful and famous. It is said that she is one of the prototypes of Diao Chan.

Guan Yu went to Cao Cao several times and said that my wife would not bear a son. When the city was destroyed, I would accept the wife of Lu Bu's subordinate Qin Yilu.Cao Cao saw that he had said this several times and thought to himself, how beautiful Qin Yilu's wife must be. After the city was breached, he saw that she was really beautiful, so he kept her.

Later, Qin Yilu also ran under Cao Cao and was encouraged by Zhang Fei to betray Cao Cao. He regretted it and was killed by Zhang Fei when he wanted to go back.Qin Yilu's son was named Qin Lang, and he became Cao Cao's stepson. Cao Cao treated him very well. Although Qin Lang didn't have much talent, he later became a big official in Cao Wei. "

"This is what is recorded in the above three history books. Do you think Guan Yu and Cao Cao are love rivals?"

The old man nodded, "Okay, young man, I have read a lot of books. I know all the stories about these corners. Are you interested in these stories? Haha."

Liu Xiaochuan blushed. He had indeed read a lot of history, including Tang Ji's misunderstanding, Empress Dowager Ding and Murong Xi.

"It's okay, young man. It's normal to like watching these things. I was young too," the old man said quickly to save him.

Liu Xiaochuan didn't know who this old man was. He could be friends with Uncle Bai. He must have been a leader before. However, he didn't care about this. He just thought that the two people in front of him were ordinary old men and sat down to talk. We chatted with the two old men for a long time.

Uncle Bai's friend's surname was Ning. Uncle Ning admired Liu Xiaochuan's breadth of knowledge and broad perspective on problems. He was surprised and said: "Old Secretary, where did you know this young man? He doesn't look like him at all. Young man. This reserve of knowledge is almost catching up with that of an old man like me.

"Haha, my daughter met her on the train. Xiaochuan is a college student. She spent all day in the library at school and read a lot of books."

"Okay, young man, it's better to read more books after school than to waste your time playing, but you can't delay your studies!"

"Don't worry, Uncle Ning, I definitely can't delay my studies."

The three of them chatted all afternoon, nothing more than talking about history and international current affairs, which are the hobbies of most men, regardless of age.It was almost evening, and Uncle Bai wanted to leave some food, so Liu Xiaochuan hurriedly left.

Just as Liu Xiaochuan was about to leave, Bai Chenglin came back, followed by a 26-year-old young man carrying a box of fruit. Apparently the work unit had provided benefits. County Magistrate Bai couldn't move it by himself, so someone took the initiative to help.

"Xiaochuan, you have to leave now, stay for dinner!"

"No, Brother Bai, I have to rush home. It will be dark soon. I'll see Uncle Bai another day."

Bai Chenglin nodded, told Liu Xiaochuan to come often when he was free, and entered the room.The young man carrying the box thought to himself, who is this young man?He actually calls County Magistrate Bai Brother Bai, and calls the old secretary Uncle Bai. Could it be that he is also a second-generation official?Liu Xiaochuan didn't care what others thought, so he went out and drove home.

The next day, Xiaolong came to see him early in the morning, and the two of them went to Zhang Chao's house. Zhang Chao's cattle-raising business has now developed and expanded. His yard is relatively large, with new cowsheds built on both sides, and he has raised more than 20 cows in total. .

"Okay, Chaozi, there were less than ten cows last year, but they have grown so much this year?"

"Isn't this just based on market conditions? I took out a loan to raise a few more animals!" Zhang Chao showed a simple smile.

"Where did you get the loan? Didn't I tell you that you needed money? Why didn't you tell me?" Liu Xiaochuan was a little angry.

Xiaolong also spoke, "Yes, you are looking for Xiaochuan when you are short of money. Have you forgotten that Xiaochuan is a rich man? You will finish feeding the cows later and find someone else. Let's play poker for a while and win some money from Xiaochuan."

"I'll definitely come to you next time I'm short of money. Didn't I see you weren't at home before? We took out a loan from the county to assist farmers, and the interest is quite low."

As the end of the year was approaching, all the people working outside had returned, so it was easy to recruit people to play poker. After playing all morning, Liu Xiaochuan didn't go home until lunch time.

When he got home, he saw two bottles of liquor and a box of snacks on the cabinet. Liu Xiaochuan asked his second sister Liu Xiaoning, "Who is here?"

"Oh, my aunt's cousin came to see dad, and dad was angry that they didn't invite him to their wedding. He didn't give me a good face!"

"Isn't it right if you don't give him a good face? How can you do something like this if you don't invite your uncle to get married?" Liu Xiaochuan didn't think there was anything wrong with what Liu Jin did. It was good that he didn't throw away the gifts.

"By the way, my second uncle asked us to go home for dinner. My aunt and my aunt are both there. My parents and I don't want to go, so I'm going to send you as a representative!" Liu Xiaoning added.

"I'm not going either!"

"No, you have to go. If we are angry with your aunt, it's a matter for the elders. As a junior, you can't be rude. Your cousin works in the county government. You go and get to know him. You met him when you were four or five years old. As for him, I probably don’t even recognize him now." Zhao Cuiping gave Liu Xiaochuan an order.

Liu Xiaochuan thought about it. His mother understood what was going on. He was a junior and could not lose his etiquette. He also understood the reason why his aunt asked his second uncle to call him to eat. It was because he heard that he had made a fortune and his parents' family was no longer a burden.My eldest uncle's family basically didn't come to Liu Tun in the past. This cousin hadn't been to my grandma's house for more than ten years, and he and Liu Xiaochuan's cousins ​​didn't know each other.

After going to his second uncle's house, his aunt, sister-in-law and uncle were all there, but his eldest uncle still didn't come. Liu Xiaochuan quickly said hello to his elders.

My aunt hadn't seen him in several years. She didn't expect that he was already a young man. She happily held his hand, acting like an aunt and a nephew, and called her cousin Zhang Weibing in to introduce him to the two brothers.

As soon as Zhang Weibing walked in and saw Liu Xiaochuan, both of them were stunned. Liu Xiaochuan also didn't expect that the young man who helped Bai Chenglin move the boxes yesterday turned out to be his cousin.
