LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 243 - Farmhouse
As a good brother of Zheng Chuan, Xu Zifan is most natural to stand up at this time. I saw him holding Zheng Chuan’s wine glass and earnestly said: “Zheng Chuan, I know how long you have been preparing for the army, you can’t change your mind. What you are good at can only be highlighted in the army. If tomorrow’s trip fails, it will be delayed. It’s your whole life. Even if you stay to take care of your sister, how much can you give her? It’s better to go to the army and work hard. After a few years, the glory will return to your sister. Then you can take care of her, right? “
These words were reasonable, and several people nodded in agreement. Liu Yang also persuaded: “Brother Zheng, just listen to Yizhi. You have your ambitions and you can’t be a hunter for a lifetime. If you get a position in the army, you can support your sister in the future.”
Zheng Chuan held the wine glass and said nothing, his brows frowned slightly to show that he was thinking seriously. A classmate asked, “Brother Zheng said that your sister and you are brothers and sisters, then she is married? If she is living well, Brother Zheng can completely deny each other, wait a few years and get mixed up. Find her again.”
Zheng Chuan frowned more tightly and shook his head, “I’ve heard that my younger sister had delayed the marriage for the mother-in-law who adopted her by keeping her filial piety. After that, when she got older, her family wealth was spent when she treated her mother-in-law. Orphans, no one cares more about marriage.”
“That’s it? It’s a bit difficult. For a girl at this age, it’s best to rely on the help of her elders.”
Xu Zifan thought for a while, and said deliberately: “Brother Zheng, you have to leave tomorrow. It is better to entrust Lingmei to me. I will take her back to town and let my mother and Xiaolian take care of her. What do you think?”
Several people agreed upon hearing the words, “This idea is good and has the best of both worlds. Brother Zheng, although our town is not as good as a mansion, Yizhi’s life in the town is very good. His wife and sister are also kind, and they will definitely take good care of your sister. You You can rest assured to join the army!”
Zheng Chuan’s eyes lit up and he looked at Xu Zifan and asked: “Will it be too troublesome? I may not return for several years, I…”
Xu Zifan raised his hand to interrupt her, and smiled: “Why do we need to say this? You go get acquainted with your sister, and you can get along with her for one day before you leave. You can just go and rest assured tomorrow, I will. Will take care of her.”
Zheng Chuan was silent for a moment, drank the wine in his glass, got up to look at Xu Zifan, then clasped his fists to everyone, whispered “Thank you, everyone” and walked away quickly. This is more in line with his character, a person who is not good at speech and is very excited. In this situation, everything is silent.
Liu Yang slapped Xu Zifan’s shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: “Yizhi, you really value love and righteousness, come, I respect you!”
Others joined in and raised their wine glasses. Xu Zifan touched them and smiled and said, “I hope everything goes well for Zheng Chuan.” Then he pushed the glasses to change with them and drank a lot of wine for various reasons.
At this table, Zheng Chuan only has a good relationship with Xu Zifan. He has only had a few meals with other people who knew each other. Of course, there is no need to tell them how he and his sister met, where they met, and more details. Need to bring my sister to them. At the end of the banquet, everyone was drunk and didn’t have much curiosity about Zheng Chuan’s acknowledgment of his sister. When they returned to the inn, they fell asleep, as if to make up for the sleep they lacked in studying hard during this time.
After everyone drank so much, they naturally couldn’t get up the next day, so when Zheng Chuan set out to join the army, only his good brother Xu Zifan went to see him off. When they got up to eat and drink sober soup, Xu Zifan had already sent Zheng Chuan away and brought his sister Zheng Zixuan to the inn.
Zheng Zixuan appeared in front of outsiders in women’s clothing for the first time. She was somewhat nervous, but only she knew the tightness of her body. For this day, she had practiced in private for half a year, whether it was walking posture, speaking tone or seeing Human response is extremely normal on the surface, without any flaws. As Zheng Chuan’s sister, she moved directly into Zheng Chuan’s previous room, next to Xu Zifan’s room.
Liu Yang and the others went back to the room after eating and saw the door of Zheng Chuan’s room open. Xu Zifan was talking to Zheng Zixuan inside, and the younger brother was helping to clean the room and replace the bedding. Liu Yang was surprised: “Brother Yi, this, this is Brother Zheng’s sister? Where’s Brother Zheng?”
Others also looked over curiously. Xu Zifan took Zheng Zixuan out of the door and nodded, “Zheng Chuan had an appointment and set off at the time. Sister Zheng and I just saw him off. Let me introduce you to you. How many days we need to get along, there will be some kind of help.”
They are all here, and Xu Zifan introduced them one by one. Zheng Zixuan and them salute each other, but Zheng Zixuan behaved very cautiously, slightly lowering her head and saying nothing. She is a girl. Just when she met her brother, her brother left and entrusted her to a stranger. This friend brought her to meet other strangers. It was a girl’s normal reaction to be cautious and vigilant.
When Liu Yang and the others saw this, they said a few words to Xu Zifan and then separated. Why should they go? For one thing, it doesn’t add tension to the girl’s family. Secondly… this is something other people’s family has. In fact, it has nothing to do with them. Said.
After they left, Xu Zifan took advantage of no one in the corridor, entered Zheng Zixuan’s room and quickly locked the door, then smiled at Zheng Zixuan, “Okay, everything is going well.”
Zheng Zixuan was obviously relieved and smiled. She looked down at the long skirt that she had carefully sewn, touched the sleeves, and said happily: “Really! It really succeeded!”
Xu Zifan stepped forward and took her hand, lowered her head and carefully looked at her face, lifted up the hair around her ears and smoothed behind her ears, her eyes were gentle, “It’s successful, you will never have to worry about the secret being discovered in the future.” , Can appear in front of everyone with the most authentic identity; no longer have to darken his skin every day, put on twenty catties of armor; no longer need to put such a thick cushion in the shoe, no need to be taciturn, no need to avoid others , Don’t be uncomfortable or dare to see the doctor… Zi Xuan, you can do whatever you want in the future. With me, even if you recover your daughter’s body, you don’t need to be restrained.”
Zheng Zixuan didn’t have her high boots, she had to raise her head to see his eyes. She unconsciously squeezed Xu Zifan’s hand. Looking back on everything in the past eighteen years, she did not regret it, but she had some regrets, the hardship of not being a girl pretending to be a man. For example, she carried twenty kilograms of armor on her body every day, covered the skin with ointment every day, and carried it on her own every time she fell ill. She didn’t care much before, but now she was just being herself and thinking about it. But there are many sad and wronged.
She looked at Xu Zifan moved, and said softly: “Fortunately, it was you who met. Otherwise, I might recover my daughter’s body and not be free.” She said lightly, “Thank you.”
Xu Zifan lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead, stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms. This was the most extraordinary gesture they had done in more than half a year of acquaintance. But at this moment when the plan was successful, Xu Zifan’s hug gave Zheng Zixuan great safety. She closed her eyes in his arms and raised the corners of her lips, truly feeling that Xu Zifan was her safest harbor. Her confidence in him surpassed everything. She believed that he could bring her everything, and the things that Master was worried about would not happen. They will be full of children and grandchildren and have the happiest home.
Zheng Chuan’s younger sister is a very simple girl at the inn. She never travels with a large group of men. The meal is sent to the room by Xiao Er, which fits her mood just after experiencing major events in life. Because Xu Zifan had to take care of his friend’s sister, he often stayed in his room, reading a script or a medical book, and did not go out with other students to go crazy.
When the list was released, they spent some money to ask the younger brother to watch the list, and the younger brother quickly ran back to tell them the good news. There were eight of them, and only two of them were admitted as talents, namely Xu Zifan and Liu Yang. Xu Zifan is still the first name, and he made a small show. Others were downcast and in a bad mood, but they were still young, and some were still taking the test when they were dozens of years old. When they came to refer to them, they were just thinking about trying out, but they were not so disappointed.
It’s just that Xu Zifan, a person who didn’t like to read in the academy before, actually took the first place, and he really impressed them. He put Xu Zifan to a higher position in his heart, subconsciously thinking that he could not match him. Xu Zifan dropped out of school and went home halfway, and was divided by his brother when he was seriously ill. Not only was he not depressed, but he worked hard, pulled his face down and used various methods to earn money to carry the burden of supporting the family.
He loves medicine and taught himself to become a doctor. In just six months he became one of Ji Shitang’s doctors. He was already outstanding compared to others, and he was considered a very good family in their town. Xu Zifan even insisted on studying, and the children and scholars won the first place! This is just over half a year. Xu Zifan has turned himself into a completely different person from the past. Who could have thought that this prodigal country boy could be so outstanding? !
Not only people think so, but everyone who knows Xu Zifan thinks so. There was a talent in the village. This was the only talent in the past ten years. Li Zheng specially set off firecrackers to celebrate. Before Xu Zifan arrived home, their village had already been happy and lively, and he once again became the talker of the whole village. Even all his family members were given a high look, Xiucai’s relatives, it was naturally different from mud legs, everyone thought so.
Xu’s father and Xu’s mother also received the news and went to the city gate every day to wait for Xu Zifan to return. A few days later, the group of them finally returned to the town, and Xu Zifan was a carriage that he rented from his family, and directly carried the carriage to the door of his house. Father Xu, Mother Xu, Xiaolian and Fang Mingda hurriedly rushed to the door. Father Xu excitedly stepped forward and held Xu Zifan’s arm, “Okay! Okay! Guangzong Yaozu! Our family is a talented scholar, really Guangzong Yaozu!”
Mother Xu cried with joy, holding Xu Zifan’s hands tightly, looking at him as if nothing seemed to be enough, and even said: “Great! My son passed the exam, it’s great!”
Xiaolian and Fang Mingda both stood by and shouted with smiles. Xu Zifan calmed them down and said hurriedly: “Father, mother, I am coming back this time to bring back a girl, she is Zheng Chuan’s younger sister. Let’s go in and tell you, I’ll introduce you to her for the first time. Don’t scare her.”
“What? Zheng Chuan’s younger sister?”
