prince and farmer

The farmer held the letter in his hand, read it over and over several times, and raised his head, "Uncle, are you...?" He said hesitantly, with a complicated expression on his face.

His reaction was obviously different from Uncle Uncle's expectations, but Uncle Uncle adjusted his shocked expression in a short time after being stunned for a moment, and instead showed the kindness and amiability that an elder should have, smiling He said, "Stupid boy, what else is he called Uncle?"

"Uncle...you..." The farmer was completely immersed in the thin piece of paper. His hand was too strong and he squeezed it too tightly, almost crushing the piece of paper. "My mother gave it to you!" Written?" Uncle looked up, his eyes were already moist.Uncle suddenly felt surprised and relieved that the wrinkled baby had grown to such a big size without knowing it, and had grown into a five-foot-tall man with a child, but he still looked like a child.

"Don't call me uncle, from now on, call me uncle." Uncle said softly, "I am your uncle, and your mother is my sister."

"What about my father?" the farmer asked anxiously, "Where is he? Is he still alive? For so many years...My father and mother, for so many years, is there any last resort? I..." His words continued Trembling, as if unable to restrain myself, "I miss them so much...have they ever thought about me..."

"If I can write a letter to your uncle, your mother is still alive." Uncle sighed.

"That's good, that's good! Mother is still alive." The farmer murmured, suddenly stunned, "Why...you only talk about my mother and not my father?"

"Sorry, your father...is no longer here." Uncle Ah patted the farmer on the shoulder, "Don't be sad, child, it's been a long time."

"I'm only in my 30s... Judging by your appearance, my mother shouldn't be too old... Then my father... shouldn't...Uncle, are you telling me that my father died of illness?"

"..." Uncle was speechless for a long time. It was a very distant and complicated story. He didn't know how to say it... so that the child he watched growing up could be relieved without regret.Then at this moment of hesitation, the farmer already understood, his face became more and more gloomy, and he nodded in pain, "I understand."

"Can I trouble my uncle to tell me about my father...the story of my mother and father? I want to hear it." Uncle Ah noticed that this was the first time the farmer... called him uncle.

"It's still a long time, uncle will tell you slowly." Uncle's tone softened, as if he was afraid of being entangled with him, he quickly averted his gaze, and looked into the room with his head, "Where's your wife?"

The farmer hung his head, "He went to his aunt."

"It's confinement, why run around? How about a cold?" Uncle Uncle frowned, but he breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine, I have something, I just wanted to tell you alone."

"Just say something."

"If Uncle tells you to leave with me, will you...will you?" Uncle Ah finished speaking, staring into the farmer's eyes eagerly and longingly.

"Why did you leave?" the farmer said without hesitation, "Anu, here, I am here with his child. I left, what will he do? When he recovers, I will take the child with him. You go to see your mother."

"Stupid boy... you think so, but he doesn't necessarily." Uncle whispered to himself.

"What do you mean uncle?" The farmer frowned slightly, obviously overheard something.

"It's nothing. What if I say...you must go now? Otherwise..." Uncle Ah narrowed his eyes, hiding the light inside, "There will be no next time."

"My mother... isn't your health good?" The farmer was silent for a while and said, "Can't I go in the future?"

"You don't want to see your mother? You've never seen her before." Uncle A asked.

"How could it be? I really want... really want..." the farmer said slowly, "but... just because I have never seen... so I am not in a hurry, but... Anu and the child, The most important thing is now.

The farmer's eyes fluttered back and forth on the letter paper, and he suddenly froze, "Where's the other half of the letter?" "

"Half of it is for you, and half is for your wife to see." Uncle A pretended to be deep.

"..."

Uncle said seriously, "Really, your mother is right."

He took out the other half from his arms, "This one can only be seen by your wife."

The farmer glanced at the half of the paper uncomfortably. It would be a lie to say that he was not curious, mother... Did the mother who had never seen her for so many years already know that she had married a daughter-in-law?What will she say?Blame Anu for seducing herself as a man?Or persuade him to be gentle and virtuous to run the family and treat each other with kindness?

"Fulin, uncle doesn't know if what he did today is correct, but forgive uncle, your identity...his identity...I have seen too much intrigue among the children of the family, otherwise I would not be willing to bring you to this hidden world He is the emperor's son... and the person who is most qualified to be a generation of emperors. Emperors, the most ruthless emperor family, the most seductive emperor. You don't know martial arts, without your father, what you have is just a poor mother and Crazy little uncle, once your identity is exposed... I'm afraid of him, I hope that uncle thinks too much. Uncle doesn't dare to think about it anymore. In fact, uncle knows that you shouldn't speculate about your lover like this, but people's hearts Unpredictable..." Uncle sighed in his heart.

"Anu, are you back?" The haze on the farmer's face quickly dissipated, and he unconsciously showed a smile, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Aren't you tired?" The farmer held Anu's hand, "I told you not to go, or let me go with you, and insisted on going alone, you are so weak now, what happens will make me worry to death! By the way, hehe, I want to tell you some good news..." the farmer said happily.

"Stupid boy!" Uncle approached, hating iron and steel, and at the same time not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he went to the other side to help Anu's hand, "That... Anu, cough... Uncle wants to talk to you about something. Let's discuss...""

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Anu was keenly aware of the grammatical errors in Uncle's sentence, but he didn't say anything, just smiled and slapped the farmer's hand, "Let go, let people look at you and laugh at you."

"What's so funny? My daughter-in-law!" The farmer held his hand, feeling somewhat complacent for a moment.

"Talk in the room." Anu's eyes were fixed on Uncle's, and his eyes were sharp for a moment, as if he had changed into a different person.

"Crack." Anu closed the door, shutting the unhappy farmer out.

"Anu... my daughter-in-law..." the farmer shouted unwillingly outside the door.Lonely man and widowed man, two people... What is there to say, is my uncle able to molest my wife?Heh heh, he deliberately avoided me, the farmer muttered aggrievedly in his heart.

"He is your uncle, and he is also my uncle." Anu sighed helplessly inside the door, as if he heard the farmer's inner thoughts out of thin air.

Anu turned her head, put her hands slightly on her stomach, walked slowly to the bed, sat down and looked at Uncle A who looked calm, Fang said softly, "Now, let's talk."

"It must be tiring to be with him, a child who won't grow up." Uncle Ah handed over half a piece of paper with a gentle expression.

"It's okay." Anu took the paper and added, "He... is really nice, not a child, but a man, considerate and caring for others..." He seems to be not good at this... in front of the elders On the face, he praised the person he liked, so he gave up halfway with a slightly red face, lowered his head and quietly blushed his ears.

After a while, Anu gently put down the paper and sighed slowly, "Legends are legends after all, the secret way... I thought..." He smiled wryly, "I really feel at ease!"

"Then what are you going to do now?" Uncle's face was solemn, but his eyes were always soft.

"What should I do?" Anu shook his hand, "Don't do anything... like now... like a woman, do this damn confinement."

"There has never been a paradise in the world." Uncle said again, "You will be the emperor when you go out."

"Emperor? Who cares?" Anu sneered, "It's just a puppet!"

"That's also... the most noble puppet in the world." Uncle Ah nodded in agreement.

"That's all." Anu lowered his head and tossed his newly grown nails, "With him and a child, I have nothing to ask for. The northern country is too cold, but the heart is warm. I don't want to sit alone in the cold Your throne, do you know what I'm thinking right now?"

"What do you think?"

"Being cold above ten thousand people is not as good as two people embracing each other for warmth."

"Don't believe me?" Anu raised his eyebrows, and suddenly took off a shoe, took out a beautifully embroidered insole, rummaged through the bed, took a pair of scissors, and cut the insole casually. Then use your nails to draw a thin piece of paper out of it.

"This is..." Uncle stretched his neck and stretched out his hand, wanting to take a closer look.

Anu turned sideways, avoided it slightly, shook his head, moved his arm slightly, and the thin soft yellow paper floated into the charcoal basin that was often placed beside the bed.What was burning there was the charcoal with the best heating effect that the farmer had specially found for Anu. At this time, it was burning red, and it took less than a blink of an eye for the paper to fall, and even the ashes were burned up.

"That's..." Uncle suddenly realized, and retracted with some regret, "You actually put it there, who would have thought!"

"The most expensive and the cheapest, it depends on what people think." Anu's eyes were relieved, "I figured it out a long time ago, so it has long been a piece of waste paper to me. It's just until today that I suddenly remembered burning That's all."

"It's good if you figure it out." Uncle said softly, "It's good if you figure it out!" He thought of his sister, his brother-in-law who died young, and the younger brother of his paranoid brother-in-law who became a demon, and then The immature self at the end of the distant time.

"I'm leaving." Uncle said.

"Uncle," Anu got up to see him off, "No, uncle." He blinked, "In the future, come and sit here more often."

"I'm leaving first." Uncle Ah waved his hand, "I won't see you off, pay attention to your body!"

He waved his hand, he...has more important things to do.

Back home, Uncle Uncle simply packed a bag, then... looked back and stared affectionately at the place where he had lived for decades, where he had already taken root, and then... he raised his foot decisively.

He wanted to take a look at the child, but he left in too much haste, and he was afraid... that he wouldn't be able to leave after seeing him.But... As an uncle, and also as an uncle, he has to do something for the children, in the name of uncle and uncle.

"Grandpa, where are you going?" Along the road, a kid from the village asked curiously, holding mud in his hands and blowing snot bubbles in his nostrils.

"A place far, far away."

"Is it farther than the city?"

"Yes, farther than the city."
