After talking about business, Li Zexuan and Han Lizheng began to eat. Naturally, the two of them didn't mind that most of the dishes on the table were almost finished by the two little fellows.
Han Lizheng was very happy to meet such a good young master who took the initiative to bring him business. He pulled his daughter along and toasted Li Zexuan. Li Zexuan also didn't refuse anyone. This meal was very enjoyable for everyone.
Of course, it had to be said that Han Yuxi's cooking skills were really good. The mushroom and pheasant stew was very delicious. Li Zexuan, who didn't like to eat stew, ate a lot. Of course, it was unknown whether the pheasant was made by Han Yuxi.
After lunch, Han Yuxi began to clean up the dishes. Li Zexuan quickly asked Xiao He to help. At this time, Iron Egg said to Han Lizheng, "Father, I'm going to the threshing field at the entrance of the village to play."
At this time, Lan 'er was also eager to try. She also felt that the scenery of the countryside was very novel. She said to her brother, "Brother, Lan' er wants to go out and play with brother Iron Egg."
"Well, then you can go with Iron Egg. Remember to come back in two hours."
Li Zexuan thought about it. Since Iron Egg was Iron Egg's son, there shouldn't be any accidents if Lan 'er followed Iron Egg to the village to play.
At this time, Han Lizheng said to Iron Egg solemnly, "Iron Egg, listen to me. You must take good care of the young miss. If anything happens to the young miss, I will skin you."
Iron Egg quickly nodded in agreement. Even if his father didn't say it, he would do it. He wasn't a completely ignorant child. He naturally knew that the young master and the young miss were so good to their family. He was very grateful to them in his heart.
Just like this, the two little brats went out.
Li Zexuan chatted with Han Lizheng in the front room. Not long after, Han Yuxi finished cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen and came to the front room with Xiao he. She sat next to Han Lizheng and listened to them quietly.
After chatting for a while, Li Zexuan stood up and said, "Uncle Han, please tell the farmers about the business I told you about this morning. I want to go to the farm alone. When it's time for us to go back, I'll come and say goodbye to Uncle Han."
Han Lizheng hurriedly said, "young master, you are not familiar with the manor. Let Yuxi accompany young master."
Li Zexuan declined, "How could I trouble Miss Han? I'll just walk around and come back. I won't get lost."
In fact, he also hoped that he could go out with Han Yuxi, but he couldn't show it so obviously. When it was time to decline, he still had to decline.
Han Lizheng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Yuxi has nothing to do at home in the afternoon. It's just nice to go out with the young master."
After saying that, he said to his daughter, "Yuxi, accompany the young master to walk around the manor in the afternoon."
Han Yuxi softly replied, "Okay, father."
Li Zexuan was a little happy in his heart, but his face was calm. He cupped his hands and said to Han Yuxi, "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Han."
Han Yuxi hurriedly bowed and said, "It's okay."
Li Zexuan then said to Xiao He and the others, "Xiao He, Xiao Xi, Housekeeper Wang, the journey this morning was bumpy. You must be tired. Rest at Uncle Han's house for a while. After I finish walking around the manor, we'll go back."
The few of them naturally agreed. However, Xiao He looked at her young master suspiciously. The way Li Zexuan looked at Han Yuxi in the morning was caught by the quick-witted Xiao He. Xiao He was wondering if her young master had deliberately shaken them off and secretly went out with Han Yuxi for a rendezvous.
Li Zexuan naturally didn't know what the servant girl was thinking. He brought Han Yuxi out.
Li Zexuan walked side by side with Han Yuxi on the small road in the countryside. He breathed in the fresh air, listened to the occasional crowing of chickens and barking of dogs in the village, and watched a group of naughty children chasing each other and playing not far ahead. At this moment, his heart was incomparably peaceful.
It was as if he had returned to his previous life. It was the same small road in the countryside, the same crowing of chickens and barking of dogs, and the same village urchins. He couldn't help but have a deep sense of nostalgia in his eyes. Unfortunately … I can't go back anymore. Even if I build trains and planes in this era, I can't go back, Li Zexuan muttered in his heart.
Han Yuxi lowered her head and walked with Li Zexuan for a while, but Li Zexuan didn't say anything. She was a little curious and raised her head to look at Li Zexuan. She saw that Li Zexuan's expression was complicated, and his eyes were confused. His gaze seemed to be nostalgic, but also seemed to be sad. When Han Yuxi saw that gaze, she couldn't help but feel her heart ache. She whispered, "Young Master, Young Master, what are you thinking about?"
When he heard Han Yuxi's soft inquiry beside him, there seemed to be a faint trace of concern in her tone. He quickly woke up from his memories, sorted out his emotions, and tried to speak in a calm tone.
"Nothing. It's just that when I saw the peaceful and comfortable scenery of the countryside, I thought of my master."
Han Yuxi asked curiously, "Young Master, you have a master?"
Li Zexuan recalled and said, "Yes. When I was young, my body was weak. All the doctors said that I wouldn't live past the age of eight. When I was six, my master came to my house and told my father that he could cure me. He needed to take me to Mount Longhu to learn from him.
"That year, I went to Mount Longhu with my master. "A few years ago, regardless of whether it was cold or hot, my master forced me to practice martial arts. My hands and feet were blistered, and my face was frostbitten, but my master didn't let me stop. At that time, I hated my master for being so cruel.
"Later, I finally learned something, but my master was old. At that time, I kind of understood my master's painstaking efforts. "The conditions in the mountains were poor, but my master was always able to get me meat all these years.
"Before my master died, he told me that because my body was weak, I would die if I didn't practice martial arts well. He didn't want me to die, so he forced me when I was young and told me not to blame him. "In fact, in the later years, I became more sensible and understood my master's painstaking efforts. I never blamed him.
I became his disciple when I was six years old, and I spent my childhood with him. To me, he was more like a father than a teacher. For eight years, he taught me top-notch martial arts without asking for anything in return, allowing me to live to this day. Before I could even repay him, he had already passed away … "
Of course, Li Zexuan couldn't tell her that he was thinking about his family more than a thousand years later, so he told her what happened to this body when he was young. However, he spoke with sincerity. As he spoke, he couldn't help but put himself in the role of this body. When he got emotional, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but moisten.
As Li Zexuan spoke, Han Yuxi's heart also became sad. When she heard the end, she couldn't help but cry. She originally thought that Li Zexuan was a rich young master who didn't eat the hardships of the world. She didn't expect his life experience to be so rough. Looking at Li Zexuan's wet eyes, she saw Li Zexuan's bruised soul under his strong appearance. She couldn't help but feel her heart ache.
"Young Master, your master will definitely be very happy if he sees that you're doing well from the heavens. "You said it yourself, your master treats you like a father treats his own child. Parents treat their children well, and they don't want their children to repay them. "Young Master, don't blame yourself. You living well now is the best way to repay your master," Han Yuxi comforted gently.
That's right. When parents treat their children well, why would they think about their children repaying them in the future? Their love is the most selfless love in the world. They only hope that their children will live well in the future. When Li Zexuan heard this, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, Father, Mother, your son is unfilial and can't be filial in front of you. However, in this Great Tang Dynasty, I will live well. I will live well. You don't have to worry.
"Thank you, Miss Han. I'm fine."
After thinking it through, Li Zexuan looked seriously into Han Yuxi's eyes and thanked her.
"You … you're welcome."
Han Yuxi was a little flustered by Li Zexuan's serious gaze and hurriedly said.
