986. Thousands of troops avoid white robes
Xue Rengui and the two went back to their homes to clean up, in fact, Xue Rengui didn't have anything to clean up, the most valuable thing in the cave was the Xue family's accumulation of several large boxes of books, and a Fang Tian painting halberd built for Xue Rengui before Xue Liang's death, the next day, Zhou Qing carried the old father on his back, and the old mother followed carefully with a broken package, Xue Rengui thought about it: Uncle can't walk the aisle, and Uncle is frail, but it is inconvenient to go to Longmen for more than 20 miles, not to mention those large boxes of books, thinking about it, he turned around and took those wild geese to the village house, narrating the reason, I borrowed a donkey cart, but it was driven by the coachman of the village house, so it was okay, and the province sent someone to return the car.
"Zhou Qing, help your uncle and aunt get into the car." Xue Rengui sat down on the donkey cart and beckoned.
Zhou Qing was overjoyed when he saw this, and asked directly: "Rengui, where did you get the donkey cart?" Could it be that Uncle Xue gave it to him? ”
"Oh, don't ask, help your uncle and aunt get into the car." Xue Rengui smiled and jumped out of the car to help Zhou Qing's parents get into the car, this journey was much faster, and in less than an hour, he arrived at the Xue family in Longmen, the old parents of the Zhou family are honest tenants, and they are cautious in their lives.
Xue Xiong could also see that Zhou Qing was extraordinary, and he was like a brother with Xue Rengui, so he treated the second elder of the Zhou family gently, and asked the old housekeeper to arrange for the second elder to settle down, Zhou Qing was grateful.
Everyone entered the middle hall, everyone sat down, there was a small servant serving food, a table full of food, Xue Rengui's eyes lit up, Zhou Qing was also throat shengjin, both of them have been poor for a long time, and they have not even eaten a full meal, now they see so many delicacies, that can still be reserved.
Xue Xiongzhi smiled and said: "This banquet is a send-off banquet, this is going north, be careful, Rengui remember my words, fame is inexhaustible, but there is only one life, in the end, my uncle hopes that the three of you can be a prince and return to your hometown." As he spoke, he raised his glass and drank it all.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Xue Xiantu, who was rising, slapped the table and shouted: "Brother, how about such a good time, why don't you make a bow to the three of us?" You and I are cousins, and with Brother Zhou Qing here, wouldn't it be better to be closer."
Xue Rengui and the others also had the intention to hear it, and finally let Xue Xiong preside, and the three of them cut off the heads of the chickens and burned yellow paper to become brothers of the opposite sex.
Xue Rengui was seventeen years old and was the eldest brother, Zhou Qing was half a year younger than Xue Rengui, he was the second brother, Xue Xiantu had just turned sixteen, and he could only be the third brother.
After the banquet was withdrawn, Xue Xiong clapped his hands, and the little servant brought in a box, Xue Xiong got up and opened the box and said: "Yesterday, I saw that the two virtuous nephews did not have a suitable robe, so I specially ordered someone to find this box of robes overnight, with all five colors and various styles, the two virtuous nephews choose a few to bring them, it is cold in Mobei, and it is good to keep out the cold."
Xue Rengui and Zhou Qing looked at it, and saw that the box was full of boxes of brocade robes, all kinds of colors, which were not eye-catching.
Xue Rengui's nose was sour when he heard this, since Xue Liang's death, where has anyone cared for him so much, it feels good to have someone to care for him and someone to ask for warmth, Xue Rengui knelt down and bowed, choked up and bowed: "Nephew, thank you uncle." Zhou Qing also followed to thank him.
"Get up, how can the big man bow down at every turn" Xue Xiong smiled when he saw this, and scolded with a straight smile.
Xue Xiantu also jumped over and shouted: "Big brother, don't be so polite, just a few clothes, my house is your house, what's polite."
As he spoke, he picked out his clothes and said with a smile: "These robes are domineering, what color do you like, big brother?" And the second brother, what are you doing in a daze, come here and pick it."
Xue Rengui wiped the corners of his eyes, got up and looked, his eyes were also shining, they were all high-spirited young people, who wanted to wear a tattered animal skin coat, who didn't want to change the brocade clothes a day, Xue Rengui was old and heavy, and he couldn't hold it, so he stepped forward and picked out a white robe at a glance, and said with a smile: "Uncle, brother, I love this white."
"Put it on, go in and wash up, and take a look." Xue Xiantu urged.
Xue Rengui took his clothes and thanked him, went into the room to wash and change, and after a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and several people looked at it, and their eyes lit up. I saw a person dressed in a white silk robe, black boots, and white silk pants from behind the screen. At first, Xue Rengui had a lot of distress and frustration on his face, but now he has a brocade robe, but his face is shiny, like a powder, his nose is straight and his mouth is square, his silver teeth and big ears, his eyes are clear, his two sword eyebrows are in his temples, and he is seven feet tall, which is really heroic.
Xue Xiong and the others clapped their hands and praised when they saw it, "Okay, it is rumored in the Southern Liang period: the famous teacher and general Mo Zijiao, thousands of troops and horses avoid white robes." Rengui also has this spirit, and he will not lose to Chen Qingzhi of Nanliang."
Xue Rengui also felt that this outfit was extremely eye-catching, and he thanked him, and he was also quite excited.
Xue Xiantu also slapped his palm, but frowned again and said: "It's good, it's good, it's just that the white robe on the battlefield is quite dazzling, and it must be very dangerous."
Xue Xiong was also stunned when he heard this, although he didn't know about the military, he should be able to imagine that a white-robed man appeared on the battlefield under the black pressure, isn't this a live target, and immediately looked at Xue Rengui, Xue Rengui heard the words, but his mind was alive, and he said directly: "It's okay, how can there be anything on the battlefield that is not dangerous, such a conspicuous white robe just attracts the attention of the enemy, come and fight with me, haha." said that he was also arrogant, but in his heart, he secretly contrasted himself: not only to attract the enemy, but also to attract his own generals......
Seeing that Xue Rengui insisted, Xue Xiong was not reluctant, but just told him to be careful and pay attention to safety, and the three brothers led two hundred and fifty strong men out of Xue's mansion.
At the north gate of Longmen County, three young generals sat on the horse, the first one, dressed in a white robe, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, a huge strong bow on the side of the horse, and an awe-inspiring atmosphere. The person on the right is dressed in a black robe, with a brilliant three-edged purple gold gun in his hand, and there is always a smile on the corner of his mouth. The person on the left had a solemn face, faintly excited, holding a long knife in his hand, wearing a big red flower robe, very majestic.
These three people were the three Xue Rengui brothers, and with a sound of "go", the three of them urged the horses, and the two hundred and fifty strong men behind them only followed.
Above the north gate, Xue Xiong stood with his hands in his hands, quite embarrassed, and at this time, a robed scribe approached him, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Xue wants Liu Junmao to marry his daughter to your nephew?" ”
Xue Xiong turned around and saluted, "Brother Liu's news is quite fast." This scribe surnamed Liu was Liu Zhi, the chief bookkeeper in charge of the clerical books in Longmen County, and was friendly with Xue Xiong.
Hearing Xue Xiong's words, Liu Zhi's face was solemn, and he said bluntly: "Brother Xue, you have to be careful, Hu Hansan has been thinking about getting married to the Liu family, and I heard that his kid Hu Debiao is also bent on pursuing the little lady of the Liu family."
