Winter nights come much earlier.
Zhang Bao specially went to a restaurant in Pingyang County and brought out some food. He even had some mutton stewed, hoping to replenish Lao He's health.
Zhang Bao still remembers that when he had just traveled through time and followed Su Xiaoyue's words, he went to look for Lao He in the ruined temple outside Hejian Village.
At that time, although Lao He had been hungry for several days and was covered in wounds from wolf bites, he was still very stubborn.
This stubborn temper seems to have become stronger and stronger over the years.
And as her identity has changed over the years, people around her have also changed their views on her. Even Su Xiaoyue and Ma Yan'er have transitioned to the identity of Mrs. Zhou Mu.
This is Lao He.
Not only has his personality not changed at all, but his attitude toward himself has not changed at all.
It seemed that in Lao He's eyes, he was still the foolish young master he had been in Hejian Village.
And it seems that Lao He has become hypocritical recently and is a little unreasonable.
Things like inducing birth and marriage are simply too much.
Zhang Bao also thought about it along the way, when did this change begin?
Maybe it's obvious too.
Since the last time Xiaoyue got seriously ill and almost died, Lao He has changed. He is more like a nagging elder in the family.
You say you are disgusted, Lao He is doing it for his own good, you say you like it, Lao He almost drove him crazy.
Come out this time.
Originally, I just wanted to take Lao He to relax.
Unexpectedly, he still underestimated Lao He's age.
I'm afraid that after being injured this time, Lao He will become more honest, which is also a good thing.
When Zhang Bao came into the house with wine and food, Lao He had already heated the wine.
Gather around a fire and drink with your sleeves rolled up.
"Uncle He, are you feeling much better?"
"I'm not afraid of catching a cold either."
Zhang Bao looked at Lao He and put the food and wine on the table with a smile.
"Don't tell me, those dark things the doctor gave me were really good. After lying in bed for a day, I finally felt better."
"It's very cold in this room, so I'll make a stove and drink some."
"This wine is really good. It seems to be a kind of flower wine. Try it!"
Lao He poured a glass for Zhang Bao.
Zhang Bao tasted it and found it was indeed good. It had a soft taste and a floral aroma.
"Is this the wine sent by the county magistrate's wife?"
"You really dare to drink it without fear of poison."
Zhang Bao smiled and put the food and wine on the table.
"cut!"
"Who am I, your Uncle He?"
"My tongue is not just for you. Even if you mix some water in this wine, I can still taste it. And you drugged me?"
"joke!"
"Open the door, it's killing me!"
Lao He said disdainfully.
"Here, I'll stew the mutton specially for you. Don't wait to go back and complain to Xiaoyue, saying that I didn't serve you all the way out."
"Look, these are all your favorite dishes!"
Zhang Bao greeted Lao He.
"I guess you have some conscience."
"Now that you're so old, you know how to hurt people."
"Come on, have a drink!"
Lao He nodded with satisfaction.
"To be honest, you, Uncle He, and I have been prosperous in this life."
"God, we have gone to war, and we have enjoyed it. In terms of status and wealth, we have never dared to think about it before."
"I think back then I was just a little housekeeper of a landlord's family. Now when I go out, whoever I see doesn't respectfully call me Uncle He?"
"Although I know it's just for your sake, but if it weren't for me, how could you be so promising?"
Lao He took a sip of wine.
His face was already flushed.
"Yes Yes Yes!"
"Everything you say is right!"
"Now, it's time to enjoy the happiness. If it doesn't work out, can I find some old ladies to accompany you?"
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
For some reason, Zhang Bao felt hot all over even after having only a few glasses of wine.
Simply take off your coat.
"old lady?!"
"That's nonsense!"
"You, Uncle He, and I went to brothels when we were young. There was a rule. Anyone older than eighteen would never be allowed!"
"Your Uncle He and I were young at the time. If I had the energy to be as sensible as you are now, maybe you, Uncle He, and I could have done a vigorous career at that time!"
Lao He seemed to be a little over the top.
"Uncle He, when you say something that is inappropriate, you, the old man, need to know that you are no longer younger than you."
"There are some things that we can't be so hasty about."
Zhang Bao said to Lao He with a smile.
"well……"
"You, Uncle He, and I just have this temper. How can we change it at any time after so many years?"
"Besides, don't I still have to keep an eye on you?"
"Although there is an emperor and a state pastor now, Cao Kang's power is not small. Sometimes I think about it, it is not as stable as before. If anything happens, we can use our strength."
"Now, if something unexpected happens, your Uncle He won't be able to help you."
Lao He drained the wine in one gulp.
Zhang Bao looked at Lao He in surprise.
The Uncle He in front of him may be the only person who has never cared about his own identity, but completely cares about his own safety.
Uncle He, Su Xiaoyue and the others are still different.
Although Su Xiaoyue and the others also care about their own safety, they still support what they do and the choices they make.
But Lao He always stopped him as an elder.
When he wanted to rebel, he stopped him, and when he wanted to go out to fight, he also stopped him. He was just used to controlling all the accidents he encountered within the scope that he could control.
In this way, he could protect himself even if he risked his life.
But later, his position far exceeded Lao He's expectation.
For Lao He, perhaps even though he was slightly relieved, he was more worried.
"Don't worry, Uncle He. Once we kill Cao Kang, capture the Japanese, and drive away the grassland barbarians, I will take the three of you to find a place to live a small life."
Zhang Bao touched his blushing cheek and said.
"What?!"
"You kid still plan to do so many things?!"
"By the time you are done with your work, I will have had several rounds of drinking with your father."
When Lao He heard Zhang Bao's future arrangements, he gave Zhang Bao a big roll of his eyes.
"Do you think I'm happy with it?"
"Cao Kang, that old boy, can't you just deal with it? Those Japanese dwarfs, how can we let them do whatever they want on our territory? And Hu Dugu and the others, I heard that things are not going well either."
"What can I do about these things?!"
"Uncle He, why is your room so hot? Is the floor warm?"
Zhang Bao rolled up his sleeves as he spoke.
"Wait a minute. You just said you would take three of us. Which three?"
"Listening to what you mean, that girl Xixue didn't think about it at all?"
Lao He's reflex arc seems a bit long.
He asked, rubbing his blurred drunken eyes.
