Below, Hu Cong was pulling and pulling with his son Hu Xian. Hu Cong angrily scolded him with his voice, while Hu Xian had a hard face and refused to surrender.

Liu Guanghui glanced at them, frowned and said unhappy: "It's so concise to pull and whisper in front of his father, and whisper in a low voice."

Hu Cong quickly apologized and said, "San Young Master, don't be angry, let's leave now."

"Non-minded, come with me quickly. How dare you be presumptuous in front of the old man?"

Seeing that he couldn't pull his son, Hu Cong couldn't help but be furious and slapped him hard on the face.

Hu Xian's face was swollen and gritted his teeth. He didn't say anything. Instead, he knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Jie repeatedly, and said loudly: "Please help me."

"Hu Cong, forgot."

Hu Cong was going to kick him up, but Liu Jie stopped him and said indifferently: "You can take care of him for a while, but you can't take care of him for a lifetime. Everyone has their own ambitions, let him go."

Hu Cong sighed, "Master, you don't know my situation. I just had a grandson two years ago and was also suffering from panting. If Hu Xian had something, my Hu family's incense would probably be broken."

Liu Guanghui glanced at Hu Xian and it turned out that this was the case. No wonder he came here as soon as his father came back.

Hu Cong's lineage has been inherited from his ancestors, and it is difficult for him to live beyond fifty years old, so his offspring have always been poor.

Hu Chong has three sons. The eldest son passed away ten years ago and did not live to be fifty. Although the second son lived past fifty, he was in poor health, unable to bear the wind and could not use any effort. He stayed at home all day and married several wives, but never had children.

Hu Cong is only a few years younger than Liu Jie, and is 78 years old this year. He is also an old man over 70 years old. In his generation, he has no troubles and no troubles. He lives in good health until now. The rest of his brothers have passed away early. Moreover, because of poverty and struggling in his early years, it is difficult for people with struggling to marry, so until now, only Hu Cong's unique meridian is left.

Hu Chong passed the imperial examination in his early years and was fame and fortune, so when he was nearly fifty years old, he took another concubine, but he didn't expect that the concubine soon became pregnant and eventually gave birth to Hu Xian. He was a very healthy male baby, and he had a son for thousands of years. He was like himself, without any troubles. This made Hu Chong overjoyed and felt great comfort in his heart.

Hu Cong was the housekeeper of Liu and a servant, but Liu was very kind to him. He was a small official in his early years, so he was also worth a lot of money. Hu Xian naturally received a very good education in this environment.

Hu Xian is very smart and likes to read, but unfortunately, his way of reading is different from that of ordinary people. A book only reads what he likes, but he doesn't read what he doesn't like. Even in a day, he reads so many books, especially those who like to read military arts and wars. Hu Chong said and fought, but Hu Xian never changed and still did his own thing. Liu Guanghui once said that Hu Xian was ridiculous and would not achieve success in the future, but Liu Jie said that Hu Xian was strong and few people could match it.

Hu Cong set a development route for his son early. If he can pass the imperial examination and become an official, it is naturally the best thing. If it doesn't work, he will have a lot of money. It is also good to be a rich man. In the future, he will beg Liu Jie to plead with a certain official of his son, marry more and have children, and strengthen the bloodline of the Hu family. In Hu Cong's view, this is the right way and the most important thing.

Unfortunately, Hu Xian always had the opposite of his father Hu Chong. After failing the imperial examination, Hu Xian simply abandoned his civil and military examination and went to take the military examination. He was unexpectedly the top scholar in high school. He was granted the position of Xuanjie lieutenant by the court and was assigned to the governor's office of Daozhou, Longyou.

The state is close to Tubo, and there are many wars. Hu Xian is his hope. How could Hu Cong let him take risks?

Hu Xian wanted to go, but Hu Cong was unwilling, so Hu Cong insisted. Hu Cong finally wrote to the court and asked not to let Hu Xian go to Longyou on the grounds that he was old and could not be taken care of by anyone. In the end, Hu Xian naturally did not succeed, and the official on his body became a scattered official.

After this incident, the father and son had a complete quarrel. For three years, Hu Xian stopped saying a word to Hu Chong. Until the previous year, Hu Xian's wife gave birth to a son. With the help of Liu Guanghui's wife, the relationship between the father and son turned around.

Liu Jie looked at Hu Xian and said indifferently: "The father's order cannot be violated."

Hu Xian raised his head and said in a voice: "A man, a real man, if he cannot make a career and live in the world, I am nearly thirty years old, but I still accomplish nothing. Whenever I see my former colleagues taking the martial arts exam, I feel ashamed and uneasy and have no face to see others. If I have been living like this, it would be better to die early, and it would be better to live and die all day long."

After saying this, Hu Xian was already in tears, kowtowed again and said loudly: "Please help me."

Hu Chong, who was beside him, was deeply shocked when he saw his son's passionate voice and emotional remarks.

Liu Jie said to Hu Cong indifferently: "Hu Xian has made up his mind, you can't stop him."

Hu Cong remained silent. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Forget it, if I insist, we father and son may not be able to do it."

Seeing that Hu Chong's attitude finally changed, Hu Xian was overjoyed and said anxiously: "I am a bastard, and I dare not ignore my father."

Hu Cong said in tears: "Your second brother is seriously ill now in bed, and I don't know how long it will last. I am old. If you go to another place, you are afraid that something will happen to me, and you will not be able to get back. I don't want to die after I die, there will be no one around you who will die."

Hu Xian gritted his teeth tightly and remained silent.

Then, Liu Jie gave Hu Xian a jade pendant and said in a low voice: "Xu Chengliang, the governor of Longyou South Road, has received my favor in his early years. If you take this jade pendant to him, he will give you a good arrangement."

Hu Xian took the jade pendant, thanked him, and then left with his father.

Liu Jie whispered to Liu Guanghui: "Hu Cong and Hu Xian have been entangled here for a long time. Are you already impatient?"

Liu Guanghui was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "My son is not energetic in the court affairs. My son has no time to deal with their little things."

Liu Jie said indifferently: "Why can we pacify the world if family affairs are not in line?"

Liu Guang also said at this time: "Third brother, my father is in his hometown and needs someone to take care of him. He Jia is a careful person. It is better to stay by my father's side and serve him as a filial piety."

Liu Guanghui's body shook slightly, then nodded and said, "It is her honor for her father to be interested in her, and the child has no objection."

He Jia is Liu Guanghui's favorite concubine. He has always had a bad relationship with his wife Liang. When Liu Jie left two years ago, he did not take Hu Chong away because Hu Chong was close to Liang. Although Hu Chong is a servant in the Liu family, his status is not low at all. Even Liu Guanghui has to give in to him and call Uncle Hu. With his help, he can't fight against Liang.
