Chapter 5 Dreams and Butterflies
More than ten days have passed since the fight in Zhuo County. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info These days, Liu Bei and Liu Ke, the two brothers and sisters, have been strictly ordered by their own adults not to leave the village, let alone enter the city. Liu Gong brought a group of people in and out in a hurry, and he didn't know what he was tinkering with.
Liu Bei is okay, when he is bored, he reads the books left by his father, and more often he is tempering his body and tempering his strength. Liu Ke can't do it, with a young heart and a jumping temperament, he can't be idle at home at all. I accompanied my fifth brother to catch a few fish, but when I couldn't catch it, I threw a stone into the water, and was scolded by Liu Bei, so I disappeared, and I don't know where the wild has gone.
On this day, Liu Ke saw that his aunt was not there, so he rushed in. Liu Bei was lying on the couch with a book on all fours, and when he heard movement outside, he hurriedly got up, sat upright, and was about to ask who was outside the door, when he saw his eleventh brother breaking in.
Liu Bei saw that it was his own brother, his spine loosened, and he leaned against the wall softly, and said lazily: "Eleventh brother, if you don't want to be your child king, come to me to do something." ā
This month, Liu Ke was chained to Lousang and was not allowed to go out, so he went around with a group of boys, went up the mountain to catch birds, went into the water to fish, chased ducks and chickens, and was very happy.
Liu Ke's face flushed, and he sneered: "Fifth brother, Uncle Seventeen took someone to the mountain today, dragged back a wild boar, and got a hedgehog, it's so fun, do you want to see it?" I heard that I also encountered a bobcat on the road, and I had a fight with the big dog of Uncle Seventeen's family, and the dog's nose was scratched, and it was so bloody that it was not scary. ā
As soon as Liu Ke said it, he couldn't stop talking, it was all trivial things in the village, but he still talked about it with relish, but Liu Bei listened to it yawning all day.
Liu Bei frowned and interrupted his cousin's talk: "Eleventh brother, has your uncle explained anything to you?" ā
Liu Ke was still unsatisfied, and said: "No, my father doesn't know what he's busy lately, and he's not at home anymore, so when he sees me, he has a straight face and a good training." It's really torturous. ā
Liu Bei said: "It seems that there is nothing wrong." My uncle and my mother grounded us just to teach us a lesson. It's just that when you go to the city in the future, you still have to pay more attention to it, and you have to guard against people. ā
Liu Ke said with a grin: "What can it be, my father said, Hua Er is just majestic in the city, out of this Zhuo County, the four towns and eight villages, which one listens to him?" On the land of Zhuo County, it was not his turn to speak. Who's afraid of whom? ā
Liu Bei smiled and said, "It's okay, after this while, I'll go to Jianjiazhuang with you." ā
Liu Ke obviously forgot about Jian Yong, and said in a daze: "Jian Jiazhuang, what are you going to do there?" ā
Liu Bei smiled: "Have you forgotten who we played Mao Si for last time?" I inquired clearly, there are many people in Jianjiazhuang, and there are a few people who do things in the county. Our brothers don't even dare to enter the county seat now, so they go to the Jian family to recount their grievances. ā
Liu Ke came to his senses, jumped high, and shouted: "That's right! Why are we playing Mao Si and provoking Hua Er? It's all for their Jane family not to be bullied, and in the end, our brothers were kicked out! When did we get this angry, we have to find them and talk to Jian Jiazhuang. Fifth brother, you are amazing! ā
The brothers chatted again with great interest, and Liu Ke got up to say goodbye and go home.
Liu Bei looked into the distance through the window, his eyes blurred. As soon as he opened his eyes when he was drunk, he came to the Han Dynasty and became Liu Bei. It's funny.
The original owner "Liu Bei" was also unlucky, his grandfather died at the age of three, his grandmother died at the age of five, and when he was eight years old, his father Liu Hong fell into the water again and was frightened, and since then he has been sick and has become a medicine jar. When the family property accumulated for several generations was almost spent, Liu Hong kicked his legs away. Leaving Liu Bei and his mother, a pair of orphans and widows. According to the historical books, Liu Bei later had several funeral rooms. That is to say, several wives have died. Well, it's just a solitary star.
Liu Bei's mother was too sad and bedridden, and the elders of the clan had just finished Liu Hong's funeral. Liu Bei fell ill again. My father died, and I didn't say anything about my grief, but I had to kneel in front of the mourning hall to mourn and welcome him off. After all, it is a child, how can the body and bones withstand such a toss. Holding on to his breath, when he sent his father up the mountain, as soon as this breath was released, the person fainted.
Liu Hong also gave birth to many babies with his wife, but Liu Bei was the only one who raised him. Liu Bei fainted, Liu Bei and his mother panicked, regardless of the illness, guarding her son day and night, her husband is gone, and her son is already her only pillar. If there was a case, she wouldn't have survived.
Liu Bei had a high fever and talked nonsense, but fortunately he woke up after a day and night. When the clansmen who were guarding heard the news, they sighed a few times and said that Gorou was indeed a blessed person, and then dispersed. Liu Bei and his mother looked at her son who came to life and cried with joy. But she didn't know that her son's body was still that shell, but his soul was no longer that soul.
After Liu Bei woke up, he didn't speak, just was silent. His mother and relatives only thought that he was grieving the death of his father. When his mother was a little better, he proposed to build a small shed next to his father's grave to mourn his father. The Han Dynasty has advocated filial piety for hundreds of years, and if a person abides by filial piety, then he will be praised by countless people, and if he is famous, he will even be investigated as an official for filial piety. What is Filial Piety? Filial piety to the elders, can honesty be upright? The atmosphere is like this, although his aunt and uncle Liu Gong are reluctant, they can only rely on him.
If it comes, it will be safe. With such a mentality, Liu Bei lived in isolation for three years. In the past three years, he has studied hard, and he has completely integrated into this world.
Three years later, Liu Bei Xiaoman was released. When he returned home, he was saddened to find that his family was so poor that he couldn't open the pot. The economic situation is very, very bad, if the Han Empire is allowed to go bankrupt at this time, Liu Bei will immediately go to the county to register. Father Liu Hong has been sick for a long time, and the family's savings have been spent. Because of excessive grief and poor health, his aunt can't work without talking, but often has to take medicine to nourish his body. In the past few years, if it weren't for my uncle Liu Gong and some relatives who have been receiving help, I am afraid that it would have collapsed long ago. Uncle is a martial arts practitioner, not to mention the huge spending, but also a straightforward man who is not good at financial management, and there are many party members on the green forest road, and the money comes and goes faster. When his father Liu Hong was alive before, he often had to help Liu Gong. Now that my uncle can help his family, I am afraid that his own life will be miserable.
As soon as Liu Bei came back, he naturally had to consider the problem of supporting his family. Although he and his uncle are blood relatives, they have already had their own families, even if his aunt is kind, he should not rely on his uncle for a long time. Besides, as long as you have hands and feet, are you afraid that you won't be able to support yourself?
Of course, he definitely didn't want to do the work of weaving mats and selling shoes. Hasn't he been despised enough by the second generation of officials and the second generation of the military in history? Because of this, anyone who saw him later would come to the weaving mat seller. If you don't say it with your mouth, you slander it in your heart. In the past ten years, few scholars have come to him, so it is not miserable.
Since he is here, he naturally doesn't want to be criticized for this reason. Besides, he doesn't know this craft, so the one who weaves the mat can only be his aunt. Liu Bei felt that he had traveled more than a thousand years to get here, and the luck in the misfortune was that there was such a mother who loved him unconditionally. How could he be willing to let his mother suffer again? In fact, life doesn't have to be so hard, it's just that my aunt has a soft personality on the outside and a strong personality on the inside, especially if she doesn't like to owe favors. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gritted my teeth and worked hard until now. As for his uncle's family, after a riot a few years ago, there was no one for a long time.
Liu Bei pondered for several days, and he vetoed all the ideas of making paper, mining, steelmaking, gunpowder, glass, and furniture factories. Some he won't, some he will, but he doesn't have the capital, the time, and the power to control it all. There are some things that will work better when he takes them out when his foundation is solid. As the saying goes, the backer eats the mountain. Lousang Liu's family is surrounded by mountains, and Liu's family in the past in addition to farming, is to drill into the mountains. Collecting medicine, hunting, these are all good sources in life. Liu Bei had no choice but to set his sights on the mountain.
In addition to sorting out the information and studying tirelessly, he followed his uncle Liu Gong to learn a good kung fu, fists, feet, guns, sticks and archery, in Liu Gong's words, he can do it. Under Liu Bei's repeated entanglement, Liu Gong finally took his nephew up the mountain. Over the years, he has to support two families by himself, which is really difficult, and he is naturally comforted to have a sensible nephew to share.
The prey on the mountain, the big guy sent it to the city in exchange for money. The little one stayed, and the mother and son supplemented their nutrition. If there is any excess, it is used to give it away. I have to say that Liu Bei's mother is a very virtuous mother. She repeatedly admonished her son: "Remember the favor you have received." Now that you have some ability, you have to remember the good of others, what you hunted in the mountains, what you fished up in the river, and every family sent some from time to time. It can be regarded as a little heart of you, my mother and son. ā
For these good words, Liu Bei has always been happy to obey.
The days passed like this, at this time it was the fourth year of Xiping, the brothers of the Cao family and the brothers of the Yuan family all inspected filial piety, and they had the idle job of "Lang" on their bodies, and they were happy in Luoyang. Sun Jian should still be his county leader, and the little overlord Sun Ce and Meizhou Lang Zhou Yu were born this year, and I don't know when they were born. Later, he married Sun Ce's younger sister Sun Shangxiang, what a shameless Lolitacon......
This should be the last quiet years of the Great Han. Imagining the magnificence of the years to come, Liu Bei couldn't help but be a little stupid.
