Quick Travel: Three Thousand Worlds Are Just Playthings

Xu Zheng looked at Shi Miao's wrinkled face and pursed lips, and asked funnyly: "Miaomiao, it's me who drank the medicine, why do you look more uncomfortable than me?"

"My second brother and I have both taken the medicine prepared by Grandpa Tong before. We both felt it was bitter, and you must have felt it too.

Hurry up and eat the dried fruit. The dried fruit is delicious and won't be bitter after you eat it. "

Shi Miao passed the dried fruit wrapped in oil paper forward again.

Xu Zheng looked at the dried fruit in Shi Miao's hand, his eyebrows softened, and then he raised his hand to pick a slightly smaller dried fruit from the small paper bag and put it into his mouth.

The dried fruit was very ordinary and could not be compared with the ones in the palace, but Xu Zheng felt that it was the most delicious thing he had ever eaten.

After eating the dried fruit, Xu Zheng raised his head and asked: "Miaomiao, did you just talk about your second brother? How many children do you have in your family?"

"There are three in my family, I am the youngest, and I have two older brothers. The eldest brother is Feng Jinting, the second brother is Feng Jinwen, and my name is Feng Shimiao.

Uncle Zheng, do you think our names are very nice? "

"Jinting, Jinwen, Shimiao."

Xu Zheng repeated it in a low voice, then looked up at Shi Miao who was waiting for his answer, rubbed Shi Miao's head and said:

"It really sounds good, especially Shi Miao."

"Hehe, thank you, Uncle Zheng." Shi Miao sheepishly held her face in her hands as she thanked him.

Xu Zheng asked with some confusion: "What about your two brothers? Why haven't you seen them?"

"My eldest brother has been fond of practicing martial arts since he was a child. He went to the border to join the army three months ago. He should be in the military camp by now, right?"

Shi Miao sighed worriedly as he spoke.

Xu Zheng asked in surprise: "Going to join the army? How old is your eldest brother this year?"

"My eldest brother is sixteen this year. He wants to join the army to protect our family and the country. After a heart-to-heart talk with him, my father decided to support my eldest brother's idea. When my eldest brother left, our whole family went to see him off."

When Xu Zheng saw Feng Shu for the first time, he knew that this man would not save him.

Later, Feng Shu changed his mind for two reasons. One was because Miaomiao promised to take him home to recuperate.

Second, because his last name allowed him to guess his identity.

Therefore, Xu Zheng's first impression of Feng Shu was that he was a sensible person who knew how to protect himself wisely.

Xu Zheng was quite surprised that he would agree to his eldest son joining the army.

"Are your parents quite liberal? If it were another family, they would not agree to their 16-year-old eldest son joining the army."

Shi Miao smiled with satisfaction: "Well, my parents respect our opinions and gave my brothers and I the right to choose. We three siblings are really lucky."

"Miaomiao, when you say this, I feel a little envious of you and your brother."

Shi Miao suddenly looked at Xu Zheng and asked seriously: "Uncle Zheng, do you think you are happy now?"

Xu Zheng recalled his current life:

There were countless concubines in the harem, but none of them liked her; there were children under her knees, but they were used as bait to lure the regent; although the previous dynasty was stable, there were still a lot of scumbags.

Say that you are unhappy, because you have wealth and rights that others cannot match. Say that you are happy, but nothing you have is truly satisfactory.

For a moment, Xu Zheng didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy?

Xu Zheng said with rare confusion: "Miaomiao, I don't know how to answer your question? Because I don't know whether I am happy or not?"

"I don't know that is happiness."

Shi Miao turned around and faced Xu Zheng and said definitely.

Xu Zheng was stunned: "Miaomiao, why did you say that?"

"Because everyone may not know what happiness looks like, but everyone knows what unhappiness looks like."

Xu Zheng fell into deep thought as Shi Miao finished his words. Yes, he had to look far away from Shu and was no longer content.

"Miaomiao, then I am happy."

Xu Zheng laughed, not expecting that his understanding was not as good as that of a child.

Shi Miao nodded in agreement: "Uncle Zheng, you will definitely be happier in the future."

"Thank you for your good words from Miaomiao. By the way, Miaomiao, where is your second brother?"

"My second brother is attending a private school in the city. He is [-] years old this year. Because he wants to take the county examination next year, he studies very hard and only comes back once a month."

Xu Zheng nodded to show that he understood: "How about your second brother's studies?"

"My second brother is so smart. He ranks first in every exam. He will definitely pass next year's county exam."

Shi Miao's eyes were bright and she said seriously.

"Okay, since Miaomiao has said so, Uncle Zheng also believes that your second brother can pass the county examination."

"Thank you, Uncle Zheng." Shi Miao showed a big smile to Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng looked at Shi Miao who was sitting beside his bed and asked: "Miaomiao, your eldest brother joins the army and your second brother is a civil servant. What about you? What does Miaomiao want to do?"

Xu Zheng thought that Shi Miao would be at a loss and not know what to do, but to Xu Zheng's expectation, Shi Miao quickly answered Xu Zheng's question:

“I can’t do what I want to do right now, I have to do what I should do first.

The eldest brother joins the army and will not have many opportunities to go home. If the second brother becomes an official in the future, he will also have his own things to be busy with, and his parents cannot be alone.

I have to stay with my parents to take care of them first. When my eldest brother gets married and has children, and someone takes care of my parents, I can do what I want to do. "

Shi Miao answered seriously, and Xu Zheng listened intently, even secretly savoring Shi Miao's answer in his heart.

After coming back to his senses, Xu Zheng asked again: "Miaomiao, what do you want to do?"

"I actually don't have any plans yet, but I hope that I can have the ability to live independently in the future, so that no matter what happens, I will have the confidence to face it."

Xu Zheng frowned, not that he thought Shi Miao's thoughts were bad, but that Shi Miao shouldn't have such thoughts.

It is true that Shi Miao's two brothers have not met each other, but judging from the love Shi Miao's parents have for Shi Miao, Shi Miao shouldn't have such thoughts!

Many thoughts suddenly flashed through Xu Zheng's mind, but he finally gave up guessing and asked Shi Miao directly:

"Miaomiao, do your parents treat your brother better than they treat you?"

As soon as he heard Xu Zheng's question, Shi Miao understood that Xu Zheng was thinking wrongly, and quickly explained:

"No, Uncle Zheng, don't think nonsense. My parents treat me much better than my brother and the others."

The reason why I have independent thoughts is because I think women are no worse than men. Women should not be blindly dependent on men, but should also have their own careers. "

Xu Zheng suddenly laughed: "Hahaha~"

"Uncle Zheng, are you okay?" Shi Miao was startled by Xu Zheng's unreasonable laughter, and secretly wondered whether she had guessed Xu Zheng's thoughts wrongly?Shouldn't it?
