Chapter 8 Mother's Hope

 Liu Yu's family is poor, and the so-called home is just three sparse thatched huts. He held the door with his dark big hands on it. Before he could use his strength, the door opened from the inside.

"Brother, you're back!"

"We're all waiting for you to have a meal!"

The eldest brother Liu Daolian was already twelve years old, but he still looked childish. When he saw Liu Yu, he immediately pulled him into the house.

There are a few dishes on the simple table. Although they are all home-cooked dishes from ordinary families, they are also meat and vegetable, which is quite rich.

Liu Yu washed his hands in a copper basin and then went to the table. Xiao Wenshou, who was wearing a thorn hairpin and cloth skirt, heard the sound at the door and walked out of the inner room.

"Ji Nu, thank you for your hard work these days!"

"Hurry, eat some fish soup and make up for it."

Xiao Wenshousheng has a long face and a gentle and quiet appearance. Thanks to her in this family over the years, what would these three boys do?

Since Liu Yu can start working, chopping wood and selling shoes, although he doesn't make much money, he has made his family live a little easier.

These days, he seemed to have become more aware and learned to find ways to make money everywhere, such as making reeds, helping workers, and making money markets.

The situation at home has finally improved, especially the food level, which is even more prosperous. I can eat meat and vegetables for several days in a row.

The two younger brothers held the rice bowl and ate sweetly. Liu Yu looked at their satisfied look, and there were still rice grains on both sides of his mouth, and he was also happy.

He picked up a chicken leg for his younger brother Daolin and put it in his bowl.

Daolin smiled and said, "Brother, I have eaten a lot of meat these days, so I will give this to my second brother!"

"My second brother is old and needs more food."

A chicken leg moved from Daolian's bowl to Daolian's bowl. Daolian was not polite and took a few bites: "Yes!"

"It smells so good!"

"Brother, thank you!"

"Tomorrow I will teach you boxing!"

Daolin took a bite of rice and said disdainfully: "I think it's better to forget it. It's useless to learn your turtle punch. I'd better find a serious master to learn kung fu!"

Seeing the children's respectful appearances, Xiao Wenshou picked up the veil and wiped the corners of his eyes. The children have grown up and still look so good, so he is worthy of his husband!

"My grandma, I plan to join the army in the next few days. This family will have to worry more about it."

Liu Yu hesitated for a long time before saying this, but Xiao Wenshou in front of him was not as surprised as he imagined.

She was silent and served Liu Yu a bowl of soup and put it in front of him.

"My mother, you knew it long ago?"

Xiao Wenshou sighed long and spoke with a little sadness: "The soldiers of the Northern Palace came to Jingkou again and have been recruiting new recruits these days. The Diqian in the north is also ready to invade. Even if you don't tell me, my mother will also let you join the army."

"A good man is determined by all directions. How can he live in peace at home every day? Don't worry, go to join the army. I have me at home. I have pity them and they have grown up. You can help me with things."

When Daolian and Daolian heard this, they immediately jumped up and ran to Liu Yu's side, promising: "Brother, just go, we have us at home, and I promise to let my mother eat and drink well. No one dares to bully us yet!"

"yes!"

"Brother must kill more enemies. After making military achievements, our whole family will have light on their faces!"

Looking at their childish little faces, even when they were talking, they were still silly and silly, Liu Yu was thinking a lot for a moment.

He was about to leave this house soon, and he was really reluctant to leave...

Liu Yu raised his hand and stroked his younger brothers' heads, and said earnestly: "You are still young, just do what you can. The most important thing is that you must be obedient and sensible and not cause trouble, especially if you say mercy, have you heard it?"

Compared with the two younger brothers, the younger brother Daolin is calm and even if Liu Yu doesn't tell him, he won't cause trouble.

It’s really a headache for this eldest brother, Daolian. Although he is only twelve years old, he is so naughty.

Every now and then, there will be neighbors who bring their own children to complain, and they are bullied by him.

Liu Daolian curled his lips, obviously disagreed with Liu Yu's special advice.

"Brother, I've grown up. I know what to do and what not to do. Don't worry."

Liu Yu laughed secretly. With his performance these days, it was not easy to be relieved. However, if time is not waiting for anyone, he doesn't care much about it now.

The opportunity cannot be missed, and no more mistakes will come. He instinctively felt that this battle with Di Qin must be a battle that determines life and death, and he must participate in it.

Since I heard that the Northern Mansion soldiers have new trends, Liu Yu has been living a life of uneasy these days. There is something hidden in his heart, and his face is always a bit heavy.

For a poor family like him, if you want to build something, joining the army is the most convenient way. He is very skilled in martial arts, which is also the most suitable path for him.

However, the situation at home made him unable to speak. He had just grown up and had not allowed his family to live a good life for a few days, so he wanted to leave home to join the army, leaving behind an orphan and widowed mother. He really couldn't let it go.

So, whether to go to the Beifu or not, this thought changed several times in his heart.

In the end, he decided to go.

After competing with the cavalry of the Northern Mansion today, he became even more determined. It turned out that the elite Northern Mansion soldiers who practiced every day were not as good as the martial arts.

With his ability to Liu Yu, as long as he enters the barracks, he will definitely be able to support the sky.

"My mother, I'll go to the Maxing store to help them sell horses these days, make more money, and during this period of time when I go to war, you don't have to worry about your livelihood." He turned around and said to his mother.

Xiao Wenshou cleaned up the dishes and changed into tea again. She frowned, always feeling that this matter was a bit lingering.

"Jinu, I want to ask you if your equestrian skills are good. You are not lying to others!"

Xiangma is a new way to make money by Liu Yu. If you only make a little money by selling reeds, how can you eat such big fish and meat?

Although Liu Yu is an ordinary farmer now, in fact, he has never given up on his pursuit of martial arts.

My mother Xiao Wenshou once wanted him to go to the countryside to study and enter the official career by studying and studying. Even if he was a small official like a clerk, he could be regarded as continuing the career of the Liu family.

Who knew that Liu Yu didn't like studying at all, but was very enthusiastic about archery and horse hunting. A few years ago, when the previous Jingkou County Governor was still there, Liu Yu was a member of his tent and accompanied him to drive and hunting. It can be said that Liu Yu had also done what those soldiers in the Northern Palace do today.

It was precisely because of these two years of experience that he became familiar with archery and archery and enhanced his martial arts skills. After that, the county magistrate was transferred away and he was disbanded and returned to his hometown.

Although he has been supporting his family business in detail over the years, Xiao Wenshou knew that one day he would be on the back again.
