Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 40.4: The Prodigal Son (91)
The Liu family had few male members, and they obviously attached great importance to this lost child. They sent people to wait in the suburbs of Beijing early, so as soon as the group arrived, they were immediately greeted by the servants of the Liu Mansion.
After entering the city, the family was invited to the General’s Mansion.
The General’s Mansion is no different from other places. Although it is said to be the General’s Mansion, it is actually the government’s mansion, so the specifications of the interior are extremely high.
The family followed the servants, and the carved beams and painted buildings along the way were dazzling.
Shao Dabao came to such a place for the first time, so he naturally dared not breathe. He carefully controlled himself not to look too much, but he glanced casually and saw Shao Xiaocao looking around, and immediately pulled his sister.
“Don’t look.”
Shao Xiaocao was very calm and said, “Why can’t you just look at it? Isn’t it just for people to see these things?”
Shao Dabao was a little anxious and said: “The servants of the big family like to watch people play the most important thing.”
“Let them look down on me, but Dad said, as long as you look up to yourself, it’s fine.” “Shao Xiaocao said.
Shao Yu heard the conversation between the brothers and sisters, and turned back and said, “If you want to see it, you can look at it generously. It’s no big deal.”
The housekeeper who led the way heard this and immediately smiled and said, “What the old gentleman said is very right. These things are put out to let people take a look. The more people look at them, the more they show their value. ”
The housekeeper’s words instantly resolved Shao Dabao’s embarrassment.
Seeing that he was so alert, Shao Yu couldn’t help but look at him a few more times.
“When my general heard that the benefactor’s family had entered Beijing, he had the Zhigeyua cleaned up early, and everything was made ready.” The housekeeper said.
“Stop war for the sake of military, the general is kind.” Shao Yu sighed.
After hearing this, the housekeeper looked at Shao Yu for a second time. He thought Shao Yu was just an ordinary small businessman, but after some contact, he gave people a sense of unfathomable.
The arrangement of the general’s mansion is to rest and rectify on the first day, and wait until the second day to really recognize the relatives.
“Dad, are you asleep?”
Shao Yu was already lying down, when he heard the words, he got up again and lit the light to open the door.
Amao held the quilt, looked at Shao Yu carefully, and made a request he had never made before: “Dad, can I sleep with you tonight? ”
Shao Yu turned to the side, A Mao immediately climbed onto the bed, as if afraid of squeezing Shao Yu, his quilt only took up a small space.
Shao Yu lay back and understood his thoughts very well, and said, “Let’s talk.”
A Mao sighed and said, “When I was begging for food, I always thought about what would happen if my relatives came to find me. When this day really came, I didn’t want to recognize them. ”
Shao Yu closed her eyes and said, “It’s not that you don’t want to recognize relatives, you’re just a little scared.”
In the darkness, Ah Mao nodded, but soon he realized that Shao Yu couldn’t see his movements, so he answered again.
“How about the housekeeper you saw today?” Shao Yu asked.
After thinking carefully, Ah Mao said, “He is a kind and considerate person. ”
After moving in, Ah Mao made a few plunders because he didn’t know some objects in the house, but the housekeeper didn’t say anything, just took it lightly, and even showed him without a trace the usage of these objects.
So in A Mao’s view, this housekeeper is kind and considerate.
“The steward is highly valued by the general, and his attitude actually reflects the general’s attitude.” Shao Yu said.
“You are afraid of the general’s attitude, how do you know that the general will not be afraid of your attitude? ”
Hearing this, Amao immediately said: “He is a general, a god of war, what is there to be afraid of?”
Shao Yu said: “He is a general, a god of war, but also an old man who is about to face his only son.”
Amao felt sour when he heard this.
Shao Yu asked again: “The general has been separated from you and your mother for so many years, do you blame him? ”
Amao was startled, his memory about his mother was very vague for a long time, but he still remembered that his mother seemed to have had a hard time in those years.
But even so, the mother in my memory always seemed to be smiling and never complained to anyone.
“Mother didn’t blame him, and I don’t blame him either.” Ah Mao said.
“He didn’t neglect you, and you never resented him. If we meet tomorrow, there will only be the joy of family reunion, so what’s there to be afraid of?” Shao Yu asked.
Amao’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately felt that his fear seemed unreasonable.
Shao Yu said again: “Don’t panic, I will accompany you tomorrow. ”
Hearing this, the big stone in A Mao’s heart completely fell to the ground, and after he was relaxed, he soon fell asleep.
In the early morning of the second day, Shao Dabao and the others were arranged to play around in Beijing, and Shao Yu accompanied Amao to see the general.
This meeting was simpler than expected. The relatives rushed forward, and at a glance, they saw their own shadows on each other’s faces.
There is almost no need for side verification. With just one glance, the general can confirm that the person in front of him is his son.
Amao is the youngest son of the general. When he was still a baby, in order to avoid the enemy assassins, the general’s wife took him to hide somewhere and could not return to the capital.
General Liu joined the army all by himself, and was very supportive of A Mao his only son’s determination to take the imperial examination.
“Your mother comes from a scholarly family. If she knew your decision, she would be very happy. “General Liu was also very grateful to Shao Yu who adopted A Mao, and even offered to arrange a future for Shao Dabao on the spot, but Shao Yu politely refused.
General Liu proposed all kinds of rewards but was rejected by Shao Yu.
The more Shao Yu said this, the more the general wanted to do more for him.
General Liu had an idea and said, “You have a daughter, and I have a son. Why don’t we become a family through marriage?”
