Portable Space: Dressing Up as a Little Brother

On the second day, not long after Xiao Yu'er and his family finished eating the morning meal, Grandpa and the others arrived at the Lin Mansion.Xiao Yuer was very happy to see them coming.Because they knew that they would come over today, Lin Zhengze and Lin Ming didn't go out today, they just waited for them at home.So when grandpa and the others came, Xiao Yu'er and his whole family were at home.

Xiao Yu'er and the others welcomed Grandpa's family in, and then let them sit down first, and then let the servants serve tea, snacks and fruits.As soon as Fang Chengjun came in, he ran to Xiao Baozi's side.Now the two children are already over there, I don't know what they are muttering.Xiao Yu'er and the others didn't care about the two of them anymore, and started talking about serious business.

After Fang Bo drank some tea, he gave Xiao Yu'er the letter written by Fang Zhengdong.Xiao Yu'er took the letter and began to read it, and the others started talking casually.

After Xiao Yu'er finished reading the letter, he handed it directly to Lin Zhengze.Then the letter was circulated in the hands of several members of the Lin family.When everyone finished watching, they all fell silent.Xiao Yu'er himself is still thinking about what he wrote in the letter.

It turned out that Fangzheng mentioned in the letter that after he received Fang Bo's letter, he began to inquire about the specific situation of the Hua family.At first, he thought it would not be so soon to find out, because it was already such a long time ago.But what I didn't expect was that this incident was also spread more in those days.The main reason is that there is only such a little brother in the Hua family. I heard that he is a very bright brother with good fortune, so he lost it like this.I have been looking for it for a long time, so many people know about it.

Later, as years and decades passed, everyone basically forgot about it.Especially the younger generation has basically never heard of it.However, those who are familiar with the Hua family know about it.

Therefore, when Fang Zhengdong first asked his teacher about the Hua family, his teacher Cheng Xubai was a little strange.Because although Fang Zhengdong is a student he values ​​more, he is not too familiar with his family's family friends and the Hua family of his in-laws.The main reason is that not long after Fang Zhengdong entered Cheng Xubai's name, he was sent to the border to take office.So there is no intersection with the Hua family.

The last time Fang Zhengdong asked him about the situation of the Hua family, he thought it was Fang Zhengdong who had heard about the Hua family, so he came to confirm.I didn't expect Fang Zhengdong to inquire about the Hua family again this time, and inquired in more detail.So Cheng Xubai felt that Fang Zhengdong must have known something about the Hua family when he was an official outside.

Cheng Xubai is the clearest about the affairs of the Hua family.He felt that since Fang Zhengdong might have a clue, he couldn't let it go.Now that Fang Zhengdong just watched and began to inquire about the situation, he didn't seem to say what he knew.So Cheng Xubai felt that he should not mention it to the Hua family, let Fang Zhengdong confirm it first.And he felt that he had to understand what Fang Zhengdong knew about the situation.

With this in mind, Cheng Xubai roughly told Fang Zhengdong about the specific situation of the Hua family's loss of their little brother and the things they have been searching for for so many years.But he also asked Fang Zhengdong to tell him what he knew.Fang Zhengdong felt that it was up to Liu Shu to decide whether to tell his teacher about this matter now.So after he wrote down the specific situation of the Hua family in the letter, he also specifically asked to see if Liu Shu could agree to tell Cheng Xubai about him.

After reading the letter, Xiao Yu'er also knew the general situation of the Hua family, especially the details of the loss of his little brother back then.So he knew that his father must be from the Hua family.The question now is to see if Dad wants to recognize his relatives.If you want, you can tell Cheng Xubai what happened here, that is to say, tell the Hua family indirectly.So now I have to write a letter to tell my family.

After Xiao Yuer finished thinking, he found that everyone else was looking at him.Then he said: "Now that my uncle has heard the news, I can roughly confirm that my father is the little brother that the Hua family lost back then. And it seems that the Hua family has been looking for me for so many years." Father, although he has not been found, he has never given up. Especially the husband of the Hua family has been missing his little brother and has been sick all the time, and his health has been bad. I think my father must be very worried. I should let the Hua family know about it. But I’d better write a letter to tell them about the matter first, and let Father decide for himself.”

Lin Zhengze and the others thought the same way, and the others asked Xiao Yu'er to write letters quickly.

After Xiao Yu'er finished writing the letter, ask the housekeeper to find someone to send it away.He came into the hall again.When he came in, he saw that everyone was talking about the Hua family.

Speaking of the Hua family, there are really many topics to talk about.And things were a sensation back then.

The Hua family has always been a relatively large family in the capital.However, the Hua family's family style has always been upright, so although there are few children in the Hua family, all of them are very talented.The Hua family can be regarded as a relatively noble family.Hua Lijie was the eldest son. At that time, Hua Zhengming was still alive.This official position is not very good in the capital.Therefore, the Hua family has always been relatively low-key.

Because the Hua family has an ancestral precept to marry only one husband, there are not many people in each generation of the Hua family.Hua Zhengming only had three children, and the eldest son was Hua Lijie, who had just been appointed as the governor of Jiangcheng Fucheng.The little brother of their family was lost on the way to Jiangcheng to take office.The second son, Hua Xudong, was a military officer, and he was a school lieutenant not long after he had just gone to the border.Hua Zhengming also has a younger son named Hua Jinru who is married to Fang Zhengdong's teacher Cheng Xubai.

However, Hua Lijie, who was the governor of Jiangcheng Fucheng back then, has been serving as the prefect of other places not far from Jiangcheng.Although he has many opportunities to take up other positions, or return to the capital.But because he lost his youngest son here, he never moved.So he kept going around Jiangcheng and Xingcheng.But even so, he still did not find his son.

Speaking of this, Hua Lijie actually served as the prefect of Qingcheng in the early years.It's just that the place where Liu Shu stayed was too far away from the capital city, and the farthest place Liu Shu had traveled before was the town, and he had never even been out of the county seat.Moreover, Xiaoyu'er's grandfather and the others have never had a chance to go out since they went to Xingcheng.Therefore, Hua Lijie, who became the magistrate of Qingcheng, missed the best opportunity to find his son.

And now, Hua Zhengming, the old man of the Hua family, has passed away for several years.Hua Lijie is now the magistrate of Quancheng, not far from Jingcheng where his uncle took office.And Huafu in the capital was managed by Hua Lijie's eldest son, Hua Lianglin.Hua Lijie only had two sons in his life, one is the eldest son Hua Lianglin, and the other is the lost younger brother Hua Yu.

It was because he lost his youngest son back then that Hua Lijie's husband, Lang Shui Yijia, was so sad that he broke his body and couldn't bear children later.So they only have the eldest son by their side.

And when it comes to the incident of losing his little brother back then, it was like this: At that time, Hua Lijie and his family were on their way from the capital to Jiangcheng for a job.It was supposed to be a smooth ride along the way.But when they passed through Xingcheng, because they missed Sutou, they planned to drive overnight, and planned to enter Xingcheng City before stopping to rest.Who knew that such a decision could meet the bandits.

Originally, they thought that everyone would die at the hands of the bandits that night, so they were very happy when they saw the servants carrying their youngest son and running away.But it was also their lives that should not die, and it happened that Xingcheng sent troops over here that night to exterminate this group of bandits.So just when everyone in the Hua family couldn't hold on any longer, the officers and soldiers arrived.The Hua family was saved from death.

But when they came back to their senses, they realized that the servant who had escaped with his youngest son was running somewhere behind.At night, I can't see the road, and the servant must not know the road here.Thinking of this, everyone in the Hua family began to worry about Hua Yu.After Hua Lijie told the officers and soldiers who came to suppress the bandits, a couple of people were sent to help find them.

But until dawn the next day, I searched all around and found no one.The bandits were basically wiped out, and the youngest son of the Hua family and the servant were not found in the bandit den.At this time, the Hua family realized that they were in trouble.The officers and soldiers of Xingcheng helped to search for it for almost two days, but they still found nothing, so they gave up when they had no choice.

At this time, only the members of the Hua family were left looking for it.But even if Hua Lijie tried everything, he couldn't find any clues.Just know that there are two crossed pipelines near the lot where they were attacked.One is from Xingcheng to Jiangcheng, and the other is from Xingcheng to Qingcheng.At that time, they thought that a little brother was still holding a child, and he would not be able to go far in the middle of the night, but they searched around many times but couldn't find it.

I didn't even see the body, so I thought it must have been rescued by someone passing by.But it is not so easy to check the passers-by who passed by that section of road at that time.Because in this way, everyone who passed by Xingcheng, Jiangcheng, and Qingcheng at that time had to be checked.

At that time, Hua Lijie's appointment time was coming soon, if he didn't leave for Jiangcheng, he would miss his appointment.There was no other way. In the end, Hua Lijie left some people in Xingcheng to continue the investigation, and he took his family and continued to Jiangcheng.

What they didn't know was that because of this decision, they missed the best time to search, so Shengsheng and his youngest son missed decades.
