Xu Shu was silent for a moment, but still raised his head, stiffened his neck and said,
"I don't want to. If you have the ability, you can kill me as much as you can!"

"Yuanzhi is such a talented person, how could I be willing to kill you?"

Cao Mao raised the corners of his mouth and smiled authentically,

"It's just that you've been away from home for so long, don't you miss your old mother?"

Xu Shu felt like being struck by lightning, his body shook suddenly, and he stared at Cao Mao,

"What do you mean by that?!"

"Your mother is very old. I have ordered someone to bring her to Xudu and take good care of her."

Cao Mao laughed.

Xu Shu trembled angrily, squeezed out two words from between his teeth,

"mean!"

"You are studying abroad alone, and I will help you take care of your mother so that you will not have to worry about the future."

Cao Mao said innocently,
"How can I be mean?"

Seeing Cao Mao's shameless appearance, Xu Shu's face turned livid, but there was nothing he could do.

He was originally from Yingchuan, but because of Dong Zhuo's turmoil in the government, the Central Plains were in chaos!

In order to avoid the war, Xu Shu went south to Jingzhou with his friends from the same county.

After stabilizing in the past few years, he, who has always been filial, originally brought his mother here in the past few days.

But he didn't expect that Cao Mao had already started to take his mother to Xudu to blackmail him!
How could this not make Xu Shu angry?
"If Yuan Zhi doesn't want to do things for me, he can continue to study with Mr. Shui Jing, and I will take care of your mother for you."

Cao Mao said with a smile.

Although he didn't force Xu Shu, how could he leave his mother behind for the filial Xu Shu?

Xu Shu took a deep breath, and reluctantly said,

"A... is willing to do something for the young master."

"Yuan Zhi, if you are unwilling, I will never force you."

Cao Mao laughed.

His brazen appearance fell into Xu Shu's eyes, making his temples throb with anger.

But Xu Shu couldn't get angry, a smile appeared on his face,
"This is done voluntarily by the grassroots."

"That's good!"

Cao Mao laughed, nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Pang Tong who was aside,

"Shi Yuan, what about you?"

Pang Tong smiled slightly, raised his head and asked,

"If I do things for the young master, what kind of benefits can the young master give me?"

interesting.

As expected of Pang Tong, nicknamed Fengchu, he would ask such a question.

A gleam flashed in Cao Mao's eyes.

He pondered for a while, then smiled,
"If you do things for me, I can bring you more than just glory and wealth."

"More honor and military exploits!"

"I will let you achieve achievements far beyond ordinary people, even Zhuge Kongming can't match, I will let you leave a name in the history!"

The tone of these words is not insignificant.

But from Cao Mao's mouth, he said it in a domineering tone, but people couldn't help but believe it!

Pang Tong's heart skipped a beat, he took a careful look at Cao Mao, and bowed deeply.
"A...willing to serve the young master allegiance!"

Pang Tong didn't pay much attention to things like prosperity and wealth.

What he values ​​more is being able to overwhelm Zhuge Liang's limelight!
And Cao Mao's words are tantamount to speaking from his heart!

"Haha, with the help of Shi Yuan and Yuan Zhi, why worry about the uncertainties?"

Cao Mao looked up to the sky and laughed, stepped forward and took Pang Tong and Xu Shu's arms.

It's just that Pang Tongtong smiled lightly, while Xu Shu's face was full of displeasure!
Burning Zhuge Liang's thatched hut, and taking Pang Tong and Xu Shu under his command, the purpose of this trip has been achieved.

Cao Mao and the others greeted Sima Hui and Lord Pang De, and when they were about to leave, his eyes fell on the ruined thatched cottage.

His heart skipped a beat, and he waved to Gan Ning behind him.

When Gan Ning came forward, Cao Mao said in a low voice,

"Do you know where the Huang family in Mianyang is?"

Gan Ning was taken aback, and then showed a sly smile,

"Of course I know. Could it be that the young master has taken a fancy to Zhuge Liang's fiancée?"

As a general of Jingzhou, he had heard about the marriage contract between Huang Chengyan's daughter and Zhuge Liang.

"Ding, the host triggers the tyrant mission, forcefully accept Huang Yueying!"

With a smile on his face, Cao Mao ordered in a low voice,

"Send someone to send the two gentlemen back to the barracks. Let's go to Huang's house."

"Here!"

Gan Ning clasped his fists in salute.

……

Yellow House.

A young girl is in the room, using some wooden parts to make something.

Suddenly the door was pushed open.

A thin middle-aged literati walked in slowly.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly,
"Yueying, you are already ready to marry, why are you still tossing about these crap?"

The girl raised her head, pursed her red lips in dissatisfaction, and said,

"Father, these are thaumaturgy tricks, not junk."

"All right, all right, even if they are mechanism thaumaturgy."

The middle-aged literati can't laugh or cry,

"If you don't learn female red needle embroidery, aren't you afraid that you will be rejected by your husband's family after you marry in the past?"

The girl snorted softly,
"If their Zhuge family dares to despise me, I will dare to divorce Zhuge Liang!"

"Nonsense, you can't talk nonsense!"

The middle-aged literati glared at her!
That's right, the middle-aged literati is Huang Chengyan, a well-known scholar in Jingzhou.

And that girl is Huang Yueying!
Seeing that Huang Chengyan was a little angry, Huang Yueying stuck out her tongue and said softly,
"Father, I'm just joking."

Huang Chengyan sighed helplessly, suddenly he seemed to think of something, and said softly,
"By the way, your uncle has already left from You County, and he will be back later."

"really?"

When Huang Yueying heard this, she immediately beamed with joy.

"Of course it's true."

Huang Chengyan smiled and said,
"Your uncle came back this time, one is to prepare for your wedding, and the other is that your cousin Huang Xu's condition is serious again."

"Hey, poor uncle is only a son of a cousin, but his health has always been so poor."

Huang Yueying was suddenly unhappy.

At this moment, a servant suddenly walked in, with a panicked expression,

"Master, it's not good!"

"What happened?"

Huang Chengyan frowned and asked.

"Suddenly hundreds of soldiers came outside the door, and the leader was a young general."

"He claims to be the son-in-law of our Huang family. He has already barged in and is waiting in the main hall."

As soon as these words came out, Huang Chengyan and Huang Yueying were all stunned.

The son-in-law of the Huang family?

Could it be Zhuge Liang?
But Zhuge Liang was just a scholar, how could he become a young general?
What's more, the marriage contract has been decided, if there is no major event, why would Zhuge Liang come to visit, or force his way in?

Huang Chengyan had an ominous premonition in his heart.

But he didn't think much, just nodded and said,

"I see."

He turned his head and looked at Huang Yueying,
"You stay here, don't go out!"

Ancient rules are still very strict.

Even though Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying had a marriage contract, they still couldn't meet before they got married.

Seeing her father's figure disappearing outside the door, Huang Yueying turned her watery eyes, revealed a sly smile, and quietly followed.
