The spring rain was pattering outside the window. In this weather, the originally frozen rivers were slowly melting, and the water in the rivers was gradually beginning to rise.
The rain came very quickly, and you could hear some pedestrians outside the yard running awkwardly in the rain, stepping on puddles. The maids and maids in the back yard were busy braving the spring rain and putting away their clothes.
, from time to time, some small screams came over, I don’t know if it was because clothes fell off or because people touched each other.
The window of the study room was open. Although some raindrops drifted closer, Lu Bu didn't care. He just sat in front of the window and looked outside the room, his eyes a little wandering. He didn't know whether he was looking at the sky or the drizzle.
This is a study room. In addition to the desk, there are several bookshelves with some books on them. However, the desk in front of Lu Bu is empty and there are no books. Lu Bu can recognize some words, but it is superficial.
There is nothing wrong with the paperwork or anything else, but if you want him to calm down and read the classics articles, is this...
Lu Bu did not have much attainment in this area back then. Although there were some factors that were not easy to obtain, such as scriptures, it was mainly due to his own personality. He liked to practice martial arts lively and did not like to sit and read. However, times have changed.
, some life habits will not be transferred due to personal preferences.
It's like Lu Bu is sitting in the study now, although there are no books on the desk. In a daze, Lu Bu vaguely remembers that he is about to leave forty...
Standing at thirty.
No confusion at forty.
Are you considered established?
It should...well, it should be considered right?
Lu Bu himself was not very sure. Although there seemed to be some changes with the addition of General Wei, Zhi Jinwu, and Jie Jie Yue, there seemed to be no change.
Are you no longer confused?
Hehe, hehe...
Lu Bu patted the table gently, then stood up, turned around and left the bookstore, and came to the backyard. In the side room of the backyard, Xiaocao exposed half of his body in front of the window, and seemed to be doing some female celebrities.
Yes, she is elegantly dressed and has a graceful figure, as if she is a painted picture of a beautiful lady.
As if aware of Lu Bu's gaze, Xiaocao raised his head, looked at Lu Bu, pursed his lips, and smiled slightly. Xiaocao didn't have a playful and playful temperament, even if he followed Lu Bu, he seemed
I don’t have any thoughts of competing for favor. I basically sit quietly like this every day, either making some female celebrities or drawing some paintings. It seems that I don’t have to go out for the rest of my life...
It can be said that Xiaocao's character and Lu Bu's are completely opposite.
But Lu Bu just liked it.
Do you need a reason to like someone?
Xiaocao has no name, Xiaocao is just her nickname. It turns out that Xiaocao has been called Nvshi, Nvshi, Qingyi, and Diaochan before, but Xiaocao doesn't like them. She just wants to be called Xiaocao.
Lu Bu walked over with his hands behind his back, and then stood aside and watched for a while. The two of them didn't say anything, just sitting quietly and the other standing.
Xiaocao had a very strange feeling for Lu Bu. Lu Bu had noticed it when he was still in Chang'an, but now it has become more and more obvious. When he and Lu Bu were secretly in love before, as long as Lu Bu liked it, he would do anything.
He is willing to do anything, including sexual intercourse. As long as he feels that Lu Bu likes it, he will do whatever he wants. But on the other hand, he is also extremely pure. During intercourse, he is basically unwilling to speak or even make a sound.
, when you are nervous, you bite your lips desperately and blush even if you make a little sound.
After having sex, Xiaocao, who had cleaned up Lu Bu and was wearing a thin bellyband or small clothes, was usually used to sleeping with one of Lu Bu's arms on her side, and she didn't mind Lu Bu kneading her somewhere. Sometimes Lu Bu
If you turn your head, you can probably see the sleeping Xiaocao with a slight smile on her lips.
This kind of smile is very strange. Well, I can't say it is strange. It just makes Lu Bu feel a rare sense of calm. It seems to be a very satisfied and happy feeling. This is the reason why Lu Bu likes Xiaocao more and more.
Lu Bu watched quietly for a while, but finally couldn't stand still. He stretched out his hand to fiddle with the red frame of the little grass girl, then turned aside to look at the patterns embroidered by the little grass, and walked back and forth several times.
"Lang Jun..." Xiaocao stopped what he was doing and looked at Lu Bu.
"Uh, haha," Lu Bu put down the thin silk that was pulled up by his rough hands and scratched his head, "It's okay, I have nothing to do, I just took a look... How about you drink with me?"
"Drink?" Xiaocao stiffened for a moment, as if he was seriously and painfully considering Lu Bu's suggestion.
"Forget it, forget it..." Lu Bu waved his hand. He was just talking out of habit. He knew that Xiaocao's alcohol capacity was almost the same as one cup...
Xiaocao looked at Lu Bu and said, "How about Mr. Lang and his wife go and drink? My wife should be able to drink it."
Lu Buba smacked his lips and shook his head. For his wife, Mrs. Yan, Lu Bu couldn't say he liked it, nor could he say he disliked it. After all, it had been so many years. He just said that when he drank, he had to look at Mrs. Yan's stinky face.
, it’s a bit too boring.
Madam Yan is not bad-hearted, and she does not necessarily dislike Xiaocao, but she is probably not very happy in her heart, and she is a person who cannot hide things, so it shows on her face. Maybe Madam Yan just hopes that Lu Bu can say
A few soft words can show that her position will not move, but the problem is that Lu Bu doesn't understand it at all, or he doesn't bother to say it even if he understands it. Maybe he doesn't think it's necessary at all and doesn't want to say it at all.
As a big man, Lu Bu was already upset by dealing with intrigues outside, but when he returned home, he had to face Madam Yan's serious face. Although he knew in his heart that Madam Yan didn't have any bad intentions,
Even if he had to speak softly to Mrs. Yan, Lu Bu couldn't do it.
Therefore, even if Lu Bu met Mrs. Yan, he had nothing to say. The more silent the two of them were, the less likely they were to sit together. Sometimes they seemed like strangers.
Lu Bu shook his head, waved his hand, and said, "You go about your business, I'll just go by myself..."
"Oh..." Xiaocao nodded obediently, then his eyes stayed on Lu Bu's back for a while, then he lowered his head and continued to work as a prostitute.
"Come, go and invite General Wei." Lu Bu went to the back hall and asked his servants to prepare drinks and dishes while asking someone to invite Wei Xu. Wei Xu's sister, the Wei family, was more or less a poor person. Earlier,
I couldn't survive the wind and frost in the north, and I didn't live a good day when I followed Lu Bu. By the time Lu Bu got some serious official position, he had already turned into a handful of loess...
Wei Xu lived not far away and arrived quickly. When they met, he immediately paid homage to Lu Bu.
"No need to be polite, get up. We are all family members, so be casual." Lu Bu did not stand up to greet him, but pointed to the seat next to him and said lazily, "Just treat it as if you are at home..."
Although Lu Bu said this, Wei Xu did not dare to be too presumptuous, but he also did not dare to go against Lu Bu's wishes. In the end, after a slight hesitation, he still bowed his hands and sat down at the table.
"Come! Drink!" Lu Bu simply raised the wine bowl and poured it down for himself.
Wei Xucai picked up the wine bowl and wanted to toast Lu Bu, but before he could say anything, he saw Lu Bu drink it in one gulp. He felt a little embarrassed, so he quickly picked it up and drank it too.
Lu Bu felt a little bored. He listened to the drizzle and didn't bring up anything to talk about. He just drank. Wei Xu rolled his eyes and didn't know how to start a conversation, so both of them were bored. The atmosphere
Just like this humid spring, people feel a little moldy in their hearts.
"Well, when you go to Binbei, how do you think Zhengxi's soldiers compare with ours?" Finally, it was Lu Bu who started the topic first and asked Wei.
Wei Xu quickly put down his wine bowl, cupped his hands and said, "This is to be reported to Marquis Wen..."
"Be casual!" Lu Bu frowned, "I told you, just like one of your own family members..."
"...Uh, I obey..." Even though he said this, when Wei Xu saw Lu Bu frowning and getting angry, he suddenly panicked and didn't know where to put his hands.
"Forget it, go ahead..." Lu Bu sighed slightly and waved his hand.
"Yes, I didn't go to Binbei for a very long time..." Wei Xu regained his composure and said, "But it seems that the soldiers in Zhengxi are stronger and their armors are relatively complete, especially...
...Well, especially that feeling, I can’t put it into words, what is it like? Well, it feels like the people under Gao Gao Wei’s men. Of course, the soldiers are not as strong as Gao Gao Wei’s men, so they should be worse, but the feeling
It’s almost the same as above, ah…that’s how I feel…”
Wei Xu talked without beginning or end, but he found that what he said was very messy. He glanced at Lu Bu cautiously, and found that Lu Bu didn't seem to care at all, but was holding the wine bowl in a daze.
"Haha..." Lu Bu seemed to recall something, the originally cold lines on his face softened a little, and he said with a bit of a smile, "Do you know, in fact, the soldiers and horses formed by Bo Ping,
In fact, it was Zheng Xi who suggested it in the first place..."
"Oh, ah?" Wei Xu opened his eyes wide.
Lu Bu glanced at Wei Xu, picked up the wine bowl and drank, and then said, "What else?"
"And... and..." Wei Xu didn't know what Lu Bu wanted to ask, so he could only think hard, with a thin glimmer of water on his forehead, "And... oh, and those Zhengxi
The weapons used by the soldiers are all very good. Even the ordinary spearheads seem to be made of refined iron instead of cast. The materials used for the ring-shou knives used by the soldiers are said to be at least fifty refined.
Cut down a wooden stake as thick as a goose egg with one knife, and there won't even be a gap!"
"Then what?" Lu Bu nodded, smiled, and continued, drinking another bowl of wine.
"Then?! Then..." Wei Xu swallowed, blinked and thought, and said, "Then...ah, there is a... um, yes, a steamed bun restaurant in Pingyang City. That good guy, indeed
It's delicious. The buns are fluffy and soft, and the middle is completely covered with meat. It's like a mixed meat. It tastes like mutton but it's not all mutton. It tastes the best when it's hot... When you bite into it, you can smell the aroma of meat and wheat.
Everyone’s nostrils were drilled! I took my men there and ate them all..."
Lu Bu waved his hand to interrupt Wei Xu's wonderful memories and said: "I didn't ask you this, I mean, how many soldiers are there in the Western Expedition, how are they distributed, and how are the people's livelihood in the market..."
"Ahem..." Wei Xu didn't know whether he choked on his drink or his own saliva. He coughed twice before saying, "General Zhengxi's soldiers are stationed in Pingyang at least about 3,000 people. The rest
... I don’t know... people’s livelihood, it’s very prosperous, really, it was still winter when I went there, it was snowing, most of the shops on the street were still open, and there was still business..."
"Well..." Lu Bu snorted lightly, not sure whether to express satisfaction or dissatisfaction, "Is there any news about Wenyuan?"
"I heard that Captain Zhang was stationed in Shangdang, but I didn't see him..." Wei Xu said with his hands in hand.
Lu Bu raised his head, his eyes were a little dark, and he sighed, "Shangdang...it's pretty close to Yanmen..."
After listening for a long time, Lu Bu suddenly said to Wei Xu: "You will go find the Gao Gao Wei later, and help the Gao Gao Wei to help his men fall into the camp. Just say it was me who said it..."
Wei Xu was stunned for a moment, then became a little happy, and quickly answered. After all, generals who command the army hope that their soldiers can be brave and good at fighting, and they are all elite. Although Gao Shun's soldiers only have more than 300 people,
Each of them can be said to be elite, so Wei Xu was naturally very happy to be able to join them and help manage them.
Seeing that Lu Bu had nothing else to say, Wei Xu blinked and stood up to say goodbye to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu lowered his gaze, said nothing, and waved his hand. When Wei Xu walked away, Lu Bu let out a long sigh.
This wine has no taste.
When I was poor, there was no good wine to drink. The cheapest wine shops in Wuyuan were sour wine, the kind that would make your teeth soft after drinking too much. But after killing the Xianbei dog, I exchanged the head for some reward money.
, you can buy some fried beans and pickled vegetables with your brothers, and then bring a jar of sour wine. Although you often drink it with a frown, you feel very comfortable in your heart!
Later, when I arrived in Luoyang, I had a few good drinks. Well, basically all of them were with Zhengxi and Wenyuan. At that time, the wines were all good wines, and the brothers were all
Brother, I had endless things to say and talk about. After drinking too much, I lay down in the living room and rolled into the yard in the middle of the night. I don’t even know when.
Later, although the drinks were still good, but...
Lu Bu stared blankly at the drinks that night on the table. He didn't know how long it had passed, but suddenly he felt unusually depressed. He stretched out his hand and overturned the table, causing dishes and wine bowls to scatter in all directions!
"Bring me the halberd!" Lu Bu ignored the messy scene and walked straight to the courtyard and shouted, "I want to practice martial arts!"
