"My dear nephew, the world is not peaceful now. There are bandits everywhere. It is a long way to Luoyang. It is really dangerous for you, an uncrowned young man, to walk such a long way...
Why don't you go and stay at home, and after two years, I will pay for your marriage, have some children, and live a stable life, wouldn't it be comfortable?"
At Lu Boxe's house, Lu Boxe, who knew that Liu Cheng was going to Luoyang, spoke out to persuade him.
Lu Boshe was a very humane person.
Liu Cheng took action and killed Cao Cao and Chen Gong, saving the five members of their family and preventing their family from being destroyed.
After gradually regaining his composure, he treated Liu Cheng differently. He really treated Liu Cheng as a benefactor.
What he said at this time was also from the bottom of his heart, and he was thinking about Liu Cheng in every aspect.
Liu Cheng smiled and shook his head: "Uncle Lu, the kindhearted boy has taken this into consideration. If possible, I also want to live such a stable life, but the world is not peaceful. Dong Zhuo went to Beijing to directly depose the emperor and establish a new emperor. In the eyes of the world,
It looks like it will get worse. If you don’t try hard and scratch it up, I’m afraid it will make you feel even more uncomfortable..."
When Liu Cheng said this, Lu Boxe fell silent.
After a while, he sighed and did not continue to persuade Liu Cheng. Instead, he said: "Erlang is too young and has not yet reached the age to tie his hair. It is too dangerous to go with you. It is better to let him stay."
, live here with me, and after my good nephew has settled down, it won’t be too late to take Erlang away.”
The Erlang mentioned by Lu Boxe is the child of Liu Cheng's uncle's family, his cousin in this body.
He was said to be a cousin, but because Liu Cheng's uncle died early and his aunt died after remarrying, Liu Cheng's parents were already taking care of this cousin when he was five or six years old.
In the next three years, it was Liu Cheng who took care of him.
After all, although they are not real brothers, they are still closer than real brothers.
What Lu Boshe said is true.
There is another thing he did not say, that is, there are many dangers for Liu Cheng to go here. If there is really a good reason to keep Erlang with him, it can at least prevent the Liu family from losing their incense after passing down the family.
Hearing what Lu Boxe said, Liu Cheng also felt that it made sense, so he turned his attention to a young man next to him and asked for his opinion.
The boy is not very young, he is just thirteen this year. Because he does not eat well, he does not look as old as the sixth-grade children of later generations.
At this time, when he saw Liu Chengchao looking at him, he immediately shook his head like a rattle: "I will follow my brother, and I will go wherever my brother goes. There are only two of us left in the family. Without my brother, I have no relatives.
No matter what you say, I won’t let my brother separate!”
"Erlang, listen to me..."
Seeing this, Liu Cheng quickly started to persuade, and Lu Boxhe was also here to help and persuade. However, this sensible child who had always listened to Liu Cheng's words did not agree with him this time.
Later, his eyes were red, he didn't say a word, he just shook his head.
Seeing this, Liu Cheng stopped persuading him and sighed: "In that case, then you can just come with me. You haven't lived a good life anyway, so it doesn't matter if you suffer some more hardships this time...
…”
Liu Shui didn't say anything, but he could not help but secretly let out a sigh of relief when he saw that his brother finally did not abandon him.
"Grandpa, I will go with Brother Cheng and the others."
One wave was over and another was rising again. Liu Shui's matter had just been dealt with here. Before everyone could take a breath, someone wanted to join the team heading west.
This man is Lu Boxe's youngest son. He is about the same age as Liu Cheng's body. He also has no crown and is just a boy with tied hair.
Lu Boshe had just died of two sons and a daughter-in-law, leaving only two sons by his side. When he heard the younger son say this, he immediately stared: "You are not allowed to go anywhere! Just stay at home and be honest.
Just wait! Live your life in peace!"
After the shouting stopped, Lu Boxe's voice suddenly turned low: "I only have your two sons left..."
He looked at his youngest son and said this, his eyes were red and there were tears in his eyes.
Lu Boshe's youngest son had never seen his father like this before. After being stunned for a moment, he quickly turned away and rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand.
"Grandpa, as Brother Cheng said, the world is getting more and more chaotic. Didn't our family live a decent life before?
But even so, what happened?
If it weren't for Brother Youcheng, our family would be gone this time!
Grandpa, the world has changed. If it were still the peaceful days before, I would stay at home and fulfill my filial piety and never go anywhere.
But it's different now.
If you just stay at home, disaster will happen to you.
And when it falls on your head, you don’t even have the ability to resist!
When the eldest brother, the third brother, and the eldest sister-in-law were killed, I just watched like that... just watched like that... and there was nothing I could do...
This kind of despair and powerlessness, I, I don’t want to experience again!”
Lu Yang, with red eyes, sniffed hard a few times, looked at Lu Boxe and said.
Lu Boxe looked at the childish son in front of him, whom he had never regarded as an adult. He wanted to say something, but opened his mouth a few times, but in the end it turned into a long sigh...
The Lu family pig that was tied up and caused a tragedy eventually died.
The person who killed it was Liu Cheng, who was knocked to the ground by it when he tried to kill it before and knocked his head on a stone and passed out.
The knife he used was the same one that had slaughtered many pigs, including Cao Cao and Chen Gong.
Lu Boshe asked Liu Cheng to kill the pig.
One is to thank Liu Cheng for his righteous action, and the other is for Liu Cheng, Liu Shui, and his youngest son Lu Yang to practice it.
The remaining pork from the third visit can be used to entertain the folks who come over later to help with the funeral.
The large gourd of wine brought by Lu Boxe to entertain Cao Cao was also used. Before leaving, Lu Boxe poured a large bowl for them alone.
He also poured a bowl himself.
Then he picked up the wine bowl and touched it with Liu Cheng and the others one by one, then drank it without saying a word.
Liu Shui had never experienced such a situation. He hurriedly looked at his brother. When he saw his brother picking up the wine bowl and pouring wine, he quickly picked up the wine bowl and poured wine into his mouth, imitating his brother's example.
The wine was sour and tasted completely different from what he imagined, so Liu Shui swallowed it down.
As for Lu Yang, who was clinking glasses with his father for the first time, he also endured the taste and drank it clean.
Then he put down the wine bowl, picked up the cooked pork and some pancakes and ate them without saying a word...
When the morning light appeared, the door of Lu Boxhe's house opened, and three young men leading donkeys came out one after another...
