Chef Wushuang of the Three Kingdoms

However, it is impossible.

"If you succeed, how can I rebel? Besides, you have opened such a big harem, and you can enjoy enough, just wait for the descendants of the Liu family to spit on you!" Fang Mo looked at the front Liu Bei, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, walked firmly forward.

Liu Bei is obviously a good man, although he may not be a good king, but this is what Fang Mo wants, right?

If he is a good king, Fang Mo still dare not contact him.

What he wanted was Liu Bei's kind of retaliatory action that dared to gamble with his future fate. Even if Yiling failed, he would die without regret.

This is enough.

In life, it is not easy to have a confidant.

"Is Han Dang here?"

Fang Mo walked in front unknowingly, and saw an old man about 50 years old sitting at the door, so he asked.

"Ah? You mean Han Yigong? Yes, he lives on the west side of the village. There is also a wife and an old mother at home. But I heard that he is leaving recently, and he said goodbye to many people. He said goodbye to the old man. I also said once, if you are looking for him, go quickly."

The old man regained some energy, and after answering, he looked at the front blankly again.

Seeing this scene, Fang Mo felt sore in his heart.

This is a look that has lost all hope, and it is also a look of expectation.

He thought of his parents, so he asked, "Old man, who are you waiting for? Could it be your heir or grandson?"

pat, pat...

Tears began to flow from the old man's eyes.

The kind that can't be stopped.

After a long while, he sighed, glanced at the distant sky, and said: "My son, I am waiting for my son. He said that he went to the army for more than 20 years and never came back. I've been waiting since I was 37 and eight years old, until this year... I'm over 50, and I'm going to be buried soon, but he hasn't come back yet."

"Don't worry about me, don't worry about me, you just go about your own business." The old man waved his hand quickly, pointed inside and said, "By the way, aren't you looking for Yigong? Go quickly! If you meet someone called Lin Yan's people, remember to let him come back with a letter."

Swish.

Not only Fang Mo, but even Liu Bei, who had been listening quietly by the side, focused their eyes on the old man.

After looking at the other party carefully for a while, he seemed to have thought of something, and when he was about to speak, Fang Mo stretched out his hand and pointed to the front.

Liu Bei nodded silently, and withdrew his hands.

Under the sun, the old man was still looking forward to the future with anticipation, as if his son would never come back if he didn't come back for a day.

Fang Mo and Liu Bei have already left.

After walking for a while, Liu Bei said: "Just now, I saw some traces of Lin Yan on the old man's face. It seems that he may be his heir. Why don't you let me speak?"

"Brother, can't you see it?" Fang Mo smiled wryly, pointed to the surroundings, and said, "Brother, look around here, and everything will be clear."

Liu Bei was puzzled. He raised his head and looked around for a long time, but he was still very puzzled.

Before he could ask, Fang Mo had already started to explain.

"As soon as I entered the village, I felt something was wrong. The people here are not too old, most of them are around 40 or [-] years old, and there is only one old man."

"Not only that, big brother, have you noticed that just now a person, carrying his mother on his back, seemed to go to the back mountain?"

"There are no elderly people in this village, and there are people who carry their sons behind the mountain. Is there any possibility for them to help the elderly?"

When Fang Mo said this, seeing Liu Bei's shocked expression, he knew that the other party understood.

in fact.

Not only in the story, but in this world, there is also the custom of sending one's parents directly to the mountain after they are old.

And if he loses even the ability to work, how can he live on?

By the weeds that grow in the ground?

Farming these days is really hard work. If you want others to help, it is really easy for others to occupy your land, unless you have a son and are very powerful.Otherwise, basically don't even think about having anything to eat, and if you don't beat him to death with a stick in the end, it's already considered good.

Don't think that with the introduction of etiquette after the Spring and Autumn Period, this situation will be much less.

In fact, there are many, many such things.

Especially for ordinary people, it can happen all the time.

And the old man sitting at the entrance of the village is not only not weak, but also in good health. Except for his eye sockets, everything is the same as the one that has been carefully cared for. How can people not doubt this?

The most important thing is.

That old man, even if he met a good person, and that person has a certain reputation in the local area, but the shoes on his feet are not something everyone can afford.

At the beginning, Liu Bei's family was considered well-off, right?

But except for winter, Liu Bei has been wearing straw sandals.

With so many coincidences piled up together, it is not a coincidence at all, but...

Someone is watching.

"No wonder." Liu Bei also raised his head, glanced around subconsciously, and said silently: "No wonder, just now I seemed to feel that someone was spying on me. I thought it was an illusion, but now I realize that it was because someone was secretly watching me. The old man..."

"But where did the young man you mentioned go? After we search for Han Dang, we will chase after him. Let me take a good look at who it is and why he abandoned his mother. If his family is poor..."

He couldn't go on.

It is precisely because he has seen and understood that he knows best that sometimes it is not because the heir wants to abandon his parents, but because he has no choice.

Either, the family starves to death, or does something that people don't like, or even be cast aside by others, which one to choose is actually very obvious...

Although this choice is very cruel.

Chapter 189 Nail you to the pillar of shame!

The world is so real.

Especially this is the feudal era.

Choices can indeed be cruel.

But sometimes not choosing is even more cruel.

Don't forget that everyone's family has not only parents, but also children and wives.
