The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms Chapter 12

Qin Gan and Liu Ru arrived near noon. After turning around, it was already dusk. The two were in a hurry to meet each other. They didn't stay any longer and went back to the city.

When passing by Fanyang Pavilion, Qin Gan stopped the car and explained to Xun Zhen: "Xu Zhong has many friends, and when we took Xu's mother away, they were all angry. They are all desperados. You need to take extra precautions, if something happens, you can bang the police drum and ask for help from the nearby pavilions."

The pavilion has the responsibility of public security, and there are drums in the pavilion. When encountering a large group of thieves and it is difficult to resist, you can sound the drum to warn the neighbors or the residents of the pavilion to come to rescue.

"Yes."

Xun Zhen instructed Du Mai and Cheng Yan to bring Xu Mu and Xu Ji back to the pavilion first, and then sent Qin Qian, Liu Ru, Xie Wu and others to the border of the pavilion before turning back. Xie Wu is a native of Qiang husband, with his exquisite style, it is estimated that he will continue to send Qin Gan and Liu Ru out of his hometown.

Back in the house, everyone was in the front yard.

Chen Bao trotted over, took the reins, and led the mount to the stable. Huang Zhong served the water, while Xun Zhen washed her hands and asked Chen Bao, "When did you come back?"

"Go back to Xu's house after delivering the news."

"Did you inform Xu Zhong's cronies?"

Chen Bao shook his head again and again: "No. The villain and Xu Zhong are just acquaintances, not familiar with each other. His cronies are even less familiar. Even if he wants to inform him, there is nowhere to be found."

"That's weird. It wasn't you, who would have notified it?"

"When the villain went, there were two or three teenagers visiting Xu's mother, so maybe the news was leaked."

Xun Zhen nodded and stopped asking questions. Seeing that Huang Zhong and the Fan brothers were surrounding Du Mai and Cheng Yan, listening to the two of them talking about their experiences in the Xu family, he frowned slightly and asked, "Mother Xu and Xu Ji Woolen cloth?"

"As usual, Lao Huang arranged them in the backyard."

Xun Zhen suddenly remembered something. She didn't tell her just now, but don't put Xu's mother in the prison. She hurriedly asked, "Where is the backyard?"

"The houses on the south side are all empty, so I just found one."

It's fine if you don't go to jail. Xun Zhen thought for a while, and said, "The houses in the south are poor, you can't see the sun all day, and it's dark and damp. Mother Xu is old, how can she be allowed to live there?"

Chen Bao observed his words and asked, "What does Xunjun mean?"

"Let's arrange to live in the north."

"North? The house in the north is also empty, but according to convention, it is only for the past officials."

"Just vacate my house. I'll move to the south."

Xun Zhen was the head of the pavilion, and he lived wherever he liked. Chen Bao had no objection, so he called Huang Zhong over and told him again.

Huang Zhong had no objection, but thought about Xun Zhen, and said, "Mother Xu is old, so it's best to live in the north. But Xun Jun, if this matter spreads out? Will it damage your reputation?"

"Arresting Xu Zhong is for the law of the country, and taking care of Xu's mother is for human favors. The court advocates respecting the elderly, so how can you throw away favors in order to catch fugitives?"

When Xun Zhen said something that was originally selfish, it became a response to the call of the imperial court. Huang Zhong was persuaded and praised: "Xun Jun is really benevolent and righteous." Then he went to the backyard.

Xun Zhen and Chen Bao also followed and came to the southern house. Entering the room, Xu Ji knelt on the ground to comfort her when she saw Xu's mother sitting on the bed weeping. He smiled and said, "The old lady is weeping, but because she dislikes the poor conditions in this house?"

Mother Xu just cried and didn't speak.

Xu Ji replied: "I have not been imprisoned in the prison. I have already thanked Xun Jun for his kindness. How dare you dislike the simple? My mother is worried about the second brother, so I am sad."

"Don't be sad. Old lady, go and live in another place. I will cook for you at night and cook something delicious for you."

Mother Xu wiped away her tears and said, "Ting Jun's kindness has been accepted by the old concubine, so how can I bother you with cooking?"

"The old lady can call me by my name. When you came to my pavilion, why did you meet me? I and Saburo are classmates. You are Saburo's mother, which is my elder. With me, you can put aside your worries. Eat when you eat, sleep when you sleep.”

Mother Xu wept.

Xun Zhen said again: "The second brother is pure filial piety, so he violated the law of the country. Old lady, the second brother doesn't want to see you like this!" He pulled Xu Ji up and said, "Come, let the old lady go. North House."

Xu Ji didn't know that Xun Zhen lived in the Beiwu, and only felt wrong when he came into the room. Xun Zhen's luggage was placed on the wall, and Xun Zhen's clothes were hung on the nails on the wall, and he asked anxiously, "This is it? "

Huang Zhong and Chen Bao followed. Chen Bao said nimbly for Xun Zhen: "This is the residence of Xunjun. Because of the old lady's old age and fear of the cold in the south, I specially vacated it and asked the old lady to live there."

Xu Ji said in surprise: "How can this be possible?"

Xun Zhen's kindness may remind Xu's mother of Xu Zhong's filial piety, and she became even more sad. Her thin fingers grabbed Xun Zhen's hand and cried, "My son, my son!"

Huang Zhong arranged the mattress and sheets on the bed, and asked Mother Xu to go to bed and sit down.

Xun Zhenkong took action, and together with Chen Bao, took the luggage and clothes, made a guilt, left the room first, and put the things in the south room.

Xu Ji chased after him, and regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not, he threw himself on the ground and bowed his head, and said gratefully, "Jun Xun is so kind, but I didn't dare to accept it; my mother is old and she doesn't dare to say goodbye. You are so virtuous and generous, I don't know what to do. repay!"

Xun Zhen pretended to be unhappy, avoided his salute, and said, "Because of you and my classmate, I took into consideration the old lady's age and gave the house to her. What is your attitude like this? Do I expect your repayment? ?"

Xu Ji was not very old, and he didn't have much of a city. He immediately got up from the ground and said, "It was my fault. Xun Jun, I will firmly remember your kindness!"

"Call me Zhenzhi, Xunjun, Xunjun, it sounds too unfamiliar. . . , by the way, have you written it yet?"

Xu Ji is fifteen or sixteen years old, and he has not been crowned, so he may not have words.

He replied, "When I was under the master, I got a name and a character. The name is careful, and the character is small."

"You should be cautious in dealing with things, and you should be disciplined. My clan father has high hopes for you! I will call you a little girl in the future."

"Yes, Xun Jun."

"Is it still called Xun Jun?"

Xun Zhen was several years older than Xu Ji, and he was kind to Xu Ji. He couldn't call him directly. He hesitated for a while, and then called out, "..., eldest brother."

"Ha ha."

Xun Zhen laughed heartily, and said to herself, "Although Young is smart, young, and simple and natural, he just took care of his mother a little bit, and he actually wants to be a brother to me." This is the real surprise. ,very happy.

Although he has not seen even Xu Zhong's face until now, but at least through hard work, he has gained the favor of his younger brother, and he thought again: "Xu Zhong's friendship with a ranger will not be like Xiaojie, without a city government, It is easy to fall in love, but as long as you work **** his mother, you may not be able to win over. However, ... Qin Gan is just strict, and he is provoked by Xu Zhong's cronies. When he returns to the county, he will definitely persuade the county ruler to conduct a large-scale search. I don't know. Can Xu Zhong escape? What if he is caught?"

There is a saying: hearing is false, seeing is true. No matter how much you hear with your ears, it is better to see it with your own eyes. Previously, he only knew Xu Zhong from hearing. Although he was a strange person, his attitude towards him was "a thousand pieces of gold to buy horse bones", and he didn't care about his life or death. It's enough to spread his reputation of "respecting heroes" in various gestures. But now, after seeing the momentum of Xu Zhongpeng's party with my own eyes, I can't let it go.

"If I can get the help of this person, I will gather the crowd to change my ears! ..., but unfortunately I'm just a pavilion leader and have limited power. Don't talk about persuading the county lord to give up the pursuit, even Qin Gan's majesty can't be offended. Alas, let's take a look. , talk about it later."

That night, Xun Zhen Guo really cooked and prepared the meal in person, and then carried it into the north room in person. How could Mother Xu eat it? Under his coaxing and persuasion, she barely ate half of it.

When he knelt down and asked to eat, Huang Zhong was at the side, waiting for him to come out with the food box, and asked him, "Why did Xunjun make such a big gift to Xu mother?"

Xun Zhen said confidently, "Young Jie and my classmates are now brothers, and of course I have to pay respects to the old lady." Hearing these words in Xu Ji's ears, made him even more moved.

Autumn weather, hot during the day and cool at night. Xun Zhen is a young man, strong and not afraid of cold. Xu's mother was old and was in grief and sadness. When she was most likely to get sick, she only covered a single quilt at night, which was too thin. Therefore, he went to Huang Zhong again and asked if there was a quilt.

Fu quilt, that is, a quilt filled with cotton, is thicker and warmer.

Huang Zhong was a little embarrassed and said, "Yes, but I haven't covered it for a year, and I haven't done much sun exposure. I'm afraid there will be moisture."

Chen Bao was obedient and said, "How about taking the villain's quilt and asking the old lady to cover it for a night? Together with the original quilt, two are enough to keep you warm. Take the quilt out early tomorrow, let it get warm in the sun, and then use it for the old lady."

Being reminded by him, Cheng Yan also said: "Yes, let's build the old lady with the villain first. Tonight, the villain can share one with Ah Bao."

Change rooms, cook by yourself, kneel down to serve food, and add bedding. Where is the detention treatment? It is clearly the attitude of the younger generation towards the elders! Although Xu Ji also knew that there was a "classmate" relationship, his mother might not suffer when he came to Fanyang Pavilion, but he did not expect that Xun Zhen would take care of her so meticulously, and was so moved that she would not say a word. come out.

After dinner, Xun Zhen was taken to the North House with the single. Older people are less sleepy, and Mother Xu misses her son, and she is not sleepy. She sits on the bed, holding Xu Ji's hand, and can't stop crying.

Although Xu Ji was filial, he was young and could not speak. Although Xun Zhen was also young, she was a human being in two lifetimes, and she still had the ability to coax the elderly. Saying a few words of persuasion and making a few jokes would not make Xu's mother burst into laughter, but it could always ease her sadness a little. After arriving, Xu Ji didn't have anything to do, and Xu's mother didn't cry much. She held Xun Zhen's hand and talked endlessly.

The content of her words, in the current atmosphere, is naturally inseparable from brothers Xu Zhong and Xu Ji.

Through her words, Xun Zhen gradually deepened her understanding of Xu Zhong. That night, Xun Zhen stayed in the North Room until the lamp oil burned out and Mother Xu fell asleep unknowingly.

Xu Ji was sleepy when he was young, and he didn't sleep much last night, so he was rather sleepy. Later, Xu's mother didn't talk to him much, and fell asleep beside the bed. Xun Zhen didn't wake him, she took off her robe, put it over him, and walked out the door lightly.

The air in the hospital is cool and refreshing. He was wearing a single shirt, standing under the tree, stretching.

The **** crowing in the front yard is already oriental.
