In the sixth year of Tianchao Xihe, the old emperor passed away. I heard that the two kings, Hongrui and Hongrui, were fighting fiercely in the capital.After King Duan ascended the throne, he changed to Jianhe in Yuan Dynasty. Legend has it that King Duan, who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, changed his previous wandering ways after becoming emperor. He turned out to be a wise king who worked hard to rule.

Jianhe two years.

Lijia Village.

"Sir, get out of class is over! Let my kid go over and help you later."

Aunt Xiaoliu who was passing by warmly greeted the young people passing by the house.The young man is only in his early twenties, with a slight smile, his beautiful eyes seem to be lovable as if he can speak.The young man responded with a smile: "Little Sixth Aunt, thank you."

Aunt Xiaoliu smiled and said: "What the hell! Mr. Xiao is taking care of my little monkey. They are more sensible now. Auntie can't come up with anything good. It's right to let that dead boy do something for Mr. Xiao!"

The young man pursed his lips and smiled, a little shy.

After walking a few more steps, they heard noises coming from the front. It seemed that something festive had caused the villagers to make a fuss.Aunt Six also looked up, the young man glanced twice, and saw Uncle Six coming cheerfully.Aunt Xiaoliu spoke quickly, and immediately asked: "Father, what's going on?"

Little Sixth Uncle smiled and said, "The General has come to our village!"

"what?"

"I heard that the general is someone who went out from our village, I don't know who it is!" Seeing the young man beside him, Little Sixth Uncle laughed again, "Oh, Mr. Han Shuangxiao, you are here too! Maybe the general was once a student of Mr. Xiao! Mr. Xiao also went to see it? I heard that he is almost at the entrance of the village!"

Li Han smiled and shook his head: "No."

Li Hanshuang didn't go to see the general who had returned home.Although the villagers call him Mr. Xiao, he thinks that he is only teaching children to read and write and learn some arithmetic, which is completely different from the gentleman who "teacher for one day, father for life".

After Li Hanshuang returned home, he went to tidy up his field.This field originally belonged to old man Li. Two years ago, the old man fell from the mountain and was seriously injured. He passed away soon after. This field was left to Li Hanshuang, so that his life would be settled.

The field is not too big, and all kinds of food are planted piecemeal. With careful management, the harvest for one year is enough to feed Li Hanshuang, and some can be left to exchange for the things he needs from the villagers.Although life is poorer, it is also considered stable.

Li Hanshuang carried the bucket to the well at the head of the village to fetch water. He shook the handle with difficulty, and the bucket was only half filled, and he was already panting from exhaustion.As a last resort, he could only stop and press the handle with his body to breathe. After a while, he felt that his arms were not so sore before he continued to pull up the bucket with great effort.However, he had only turned around a circle, when suddenly he lost all strength, his arm went limp, the rollers rattled, the handle was turned upside down, and the bucket was pumped!When it fell back to the bottom of the well.

Li Hanshuang was dumbfounded, stared blankly for a while, and patted his head angrily.

I was late after class today. I was afraid of delaying the work at home. I was anxious to fill too much water just now and wanted to fix it quickly.But he didn't have the energy to shake it up, and now that the bucket fell back, more water would definitely be filled in, so he couldn't shake it up.

Just when Li Hanshuang was considering whether to go back and find a familiar neighbor for help, a strange male voice came from behind: "If you can't mention it, you don't call me someone."

A pair of big hands reached out, grabbed the handle, and slowly shook the bucket up with ease.

Li Hanshuang looked up, and what caught his eyes was a brocade suit worn by a wealthy family, he was taken aback: "You..."

The bucket of water had already been shaken up, and the man poured water into the bucket brought by the young man, making it full immediately.

Li Hanshuang quickly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you!"

The man smiled and said, "You're welcome. You are weak, why don't you ask for help?"

"This... I originally wanted to fill half the bucket of water, and I can bring up the half bucket of water... Thank you."

Li Han hesitated to explain, and thanked again, he didn't dare to face strangers, especially such luxuriously dressed strangers, he grabbed the bucket in a panic and wanted to leave.However, he, who can only carry half a bucket of water normally, faced a full bucket of water, let alone carry it away, even if he wanted to lift it, he would have difficulty.

Li Han's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and dragged the bucket for two unsteady steps, the water spilled all over the floor, even his shoes were wet.

The man hurried forward to take the bucket from him. In Li Han's hands, the bucket was like a heavy bucket, but in the man's hand, it seemed light and weightless.The man shook his head and said, "Let me carry it."

"But this is too much trouble for you..."

The man frowned: "Sir, why are you being polite to me!"

Li Hanshuang was taken aback by the familiar address, and looked again subconsciously. He didn't dare to look at the other person's face seriously just now, but now that he took a closer look, he found that the other person's face was vaguely familiar. "You are..." His eyes flicked across the man's waist, and his eyes widened suddenly. There was a goldfish bag hanging from the ring pendant—this is something that only dignitaries would wear!The name submerged in memory has come to his lips, but Li Hanshuang dare not say it.

Li Han muttered: "You... have grown up, don't, don't call me Mr. Xiao..."

The man's brows stretched, and he asked without answering, "Does Mr. Xiao remember me?"

"Ah."

"Then why don't you call me by my name?"

"I only remember your nickname, you now...how can I call you..."

Li Han lowered his head and said in a low voice, couldn't help but glanced at the goldfish bag again, not daring to call out the name he knew.Country people like them will give their children a cheap name in order to make a living, even if they are adults, they will just give their children a vulgar first name without even a word.But the person in front of him is at least a fourth-rank official, how could he call out that kind of nickname.

The man seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Others can't call you, but Mr. Xiao can. Mr. Xiao will call me by my nickname first. If it is correct, I will tell you my current name, and you can call me by my name later on." That's it, okay?"

Li Hanshuang hesitated for a moment, then called out softly: "Tu Dan..."

The man laughed loudly: "Mr. Xiao really remembers me!"

Li Han looked again, thinking that the skinny little black boy had now grown into a tall and handsome man, and couldn't help but smile when he thought that the years could make such a big change in people.

The man said: "Sir, my name is Li Zhanyue now, you can just call me Zhanyue. Let's go, Mr. Xiao, I will take you home."

Li Zhanyue is only two years younger than Han Shuang. He has lived with his mother since he was a child. He started studying with Han Shuang when he was 11. He is a very mischievous guy. At the age of 12, his mother had an accident and he became an orphan.Seeing that he was pitiful, Hanshuang took him home to raise him.At that time, Grandpa Li was still there, and the three of them lived on a few acres of Susukida, and their lives were very difficult.Li Zhanyue didn't want to drag Han Shuang down, so the next year when the imperial court recruited new soldiers, he went to the army.

Li Zhanyue is courageous, smart, and one of the few soldiers who has read books. He performed outstandingly on the battlefield, won the great general's respect, and was quickly promoted.The name Li Zhanyue was also given by the general, saying that this man seemed to have the aura of chopping mountains and chopping mountains when he went to the battlefield.

Years of fighting in the battlefield has allowed Li Zhanyue to develop a strong figure and a mighty temperament. If it weren't for the youthful youthfulness remaining in his face, he really wouldn't be able to see that this is just a young man who has just been weak.

Now that more than eight years have passed, when Li Zhanyue returns to his hometown, the first person he wants to see is the little teacher who taught him to read and write and worked hard to support him.

Li Zhanyue and Hanshuang walked side by side, briefly talked about what happened in the past few years, and mentioned the old things seven or eight years ago, and the unfamiliarity between them for many years faded away.

"Mr. Xiao, you are still the same as before, and you don't seem to have changed at all."

Li Zhanyue looked at Han Shuang with a smile and said, as expected, the other party blushed slightly as he remembered.

Li Zhanyue would always think of the little gentleman in his hometown when he was away fighting.At that time, Li Hanshuang was not much older than these children, so everyone called him "Little Mister".Mr. Xiao always speaks gently and softly, he will not reprimand the students, and he will tell interesting stories in class, so the children like him.Li Zhanyue is no exception.

Li Zhanyue remembered that Mr. Xiao was very thin and small. Although he was two years older than him, he was as tall as him. Mr. Xiao had fair skin, a small face, and blushed at every turn, like a girl.Li Zhanyue often listens to the seven aunts and eight aunts in the village commenting that this little gentleman is the most handsome person in the village, even those girls are not as good as him, he looks so handsome, he must come from a rich family, maybe It's a troubled noble son.

Li Zhanyue always suspects that he remembers wrongly, how can there be such a good-looking man, only to see you again today, only to realize that he remembers everything correctly.

"Sir, you are so pretty..."

Li Zhanyue couldn't help stroking Hanshuang's cheeks, the delicate and flawless skin was as smooth as imagined, the face seemed to be the size of a palm, and it looked extraordinarily small when held in the palm.

Han Shuang was taken aback, and backed away in panic, but accidentally bumped into the bucket at his feet. Before Li Zhanyue could help him, the other party had already fallen to the ground with the bucket, and poured water all over his body. Very embarrassed.

"Little Mister!" Annoyed that he was too abrupt, Li Zhanyue quickly squatted down and helped Li Hanshuang up, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I, I'm going to change clothes..."

Han Shuang stood up in a panic and walked towards the house.Li Zhanyue also followed, trying to follow into the house, but was blocked by Li Hanshuang.

"You...don't come in."

Li Han lowered his head and said.Li Zhanyue was puzzled: "What are men afraid of?"

Li Han shook his head again and again, but he was not allowed to follow anyway.Li Zhanyue was confused, remembering that Hanshuang didn't like to show his body in front of people, maybe it was a habit, so he stopped pushing and stood outside to wait.Li Han double-closed the door and bolted it, Li Zhanyue couldn't help laughing when he heard the series of movements outside: It's not a woman, why are you so nervous.

Hanshuang soon came out, changed into coarse clothes, her hair was let down because it got wet, and it was loosely tied on her shoulders with only one belt, as if she had just taken a shower.

Han Shuang was a little embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "This...how about you sit down for a while, I have to fetch water..."

"Oh, then I'll go with you!"

Li Zhanyue picked up a bucket and followed him out. On the way, Han Han lowered his head and said nothing, fearing that the other party was angry at the abruptness just now, he quickly said, "Mr. Xiao, are you angry with me? I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I just haven't seen you for so long!"

Han Shuang shook his head: "I'm not angry."

Li Zhanyue saw that the other party's face was still tense, and knew that Han Shuang was still upset about what happened just now, but Mr. Xiao has always been gentle and can't say serious words. After thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Xiao, when I was fighting outside I think about you every day. Except for my mother, you are the best thing for me. I just wanted to touch you just now, want... to see if I really saw you. Don’t be angry with me, I Is it okay to pay you?"

Han Shuang finally had a smile on his face, slightly shy, and said softly: "I'm not angry."

Li Zhanyue smiled and said, "Little Mister, I will stay at your place tonight!"

"What?" Han Shuang suddenly stopped and looked up, "You—why do you live here?"

But Li Zhanyue didn't think there was anything wrong: "I lived with you before I left, didn't I? There is no house for me in the village anymore, so of course I live with you."

"But...you are a general, they will all be willing to let you live..."

"They? Who?"

"This... Li Youcai or something..."

Li Youcai is a wealthy household in the village, and his house is many times better than Hanshuang's dilapidated house.

Li Zhanyue pouted: "Why should I live with him!" After a pause, he said unhappily, "Mr. Xiao is still angry with me, right? Why were you willing to let me live with you before, but now you don't want to?" Don’t you have to worry about not being able to support me? I have money, so you can use it.” Li Zhanyue couldn’t help but pat Hanshuang on the shoulder and complained, “These years must have been too hard, so thin How can I do it! Look at you, it’s only up to my shoulder, and I can hold this arm with one hand! No, I must live with you, and cook big fish and meat for you every day, so that you can gain weight!"

"This, this is not good..."

"What's wrong? That's it!"

Li Zhanyue finalized the matter talking to himself, completely ignoring Han Shuang's silent retort with staring eyes.
