Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 611 Father and Son Agreement
Liu Zheng nodded unconsciously: "Oh, I think I understand a little bit. But if I keep training like this, when can I follow my father to serve in the army? Brother Gao wrote to me a few days ago, saying that he was brave in battle and has been promoted to sergeant. If I delay any longer, I am afraid that when he becomes a general, I will not even be an ordinary soldier. Wouldn't I be outdone by him?"

"What a fool! Nephew Gao is five years older than you. He is already seven feet tall, and you are still two inches short of six feet. How can you compare?"

Zhang Yu couldn't help but laugh and curse.

"Also, your father didn't want you to know about your nephew Gao Yi's service in the army of Xu and Qian. Since he wrote to you to let you know, you must keep it secret, otherwise your uncle Gao's painstaking efforts will be ruined."

Liu Zheng nodded heavily, "Don't worry, mother. I won't worry. Uncle Gao wants to sharpen my brother. As the saying goes, if jade is not polished, it will not become a useful tool. I want to be like my brother in the future, starting from a small soldier and becoming a great general. I will never bring shame to my father."

"Well said, you are worthy of being my Liu He's son."

A voice suddenly came, Liu Zheng was overjoyed, and looking back, it was Liu He who walked into the backyard.

"Father!"

He stretched out his legs and ran over hurriedly.

"Hey, good son!"

Liu He picked him up and touched his shoulders and arms. "Not bad, you have made a lot more friends than a month ago. It seems that you have not been lazy in martial arts. I wonder how you are doing in literature, history and military strategy?"

Liu Zheng raised his little head proudly: "I just want my father to test me."

"Oh? My son seems to be full of confidence. I guess you have it all figured out. In that case, let me test you."

He carried Liu Zheng back to the pavilion, put him down, and then looked at Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and quickly changed the subject: "My husband is back, have you greeted your father and mother?"

Liu He shook his head and said, "Not yet. I just came back and wanted to come see you and Zheng Er first, and then go to pay my respects."

He stroked the back of Zhang Yu's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work this month, Yu'er."

Zhang Yu smiled at him and said, "What are you talking about, my husband? It is a wife's duty to take care of her husband and children. How can it be hard? It is the husband who is fighting outside that is the hardship."

Liu He was surprised and asked, "Why, Yu'er doesn't even ask about the war?"

Zhang Yu shook her head and said, "As a woman, it is better for me not to ask about military and political affairs. Besides, my husband is leading the army himself, so there is no reason why he cannot win. Why bother asking more questions?"

Upon hearing this, Liu He couldn't help but grab her hands. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Zheng started yelling angrily.

"Ah, we agreed to test what the children have learned, why are you just talking to yourselves?"

The boy put his hands on his hips, his cheeks puffed up, and looked unhappy.

The two then remembered that they had a son between them and felt awkward.

"Okay, okay, let's take the test. Let's take the test right away."

Liu He thought for a moment and was about to ask a question when suddenly his mother Xu came to the backyard.

"Zheng'er, it's time to eat. Come, have dinner with grandma. Today, grandma specially made your favorite dish."

Liu Zheng curled his lips and said, "No, my father is testing me. I will eat after the test."

After hearing what he said, Xu finally saw Liu He: "Ah, He'er is back?"

Liu He became more and more embarrassed when he heard this: "Uh... Mother, you are too biased. You pretended not to see my child standing here alone at his age..."

Mrs. Xu immediately put on a stern face: "How dare you bring that up? You've been away for more than a month on this expedition, and now that you're finally back, you're testing my good grandson and not even letting him eat. I think you're asking for a fight."

Liu He was simply at the point of not knowing whether to laugh or cry, while Zhang Yu, standing beside him, covered her mouth and laughed secretly.

Xu walked straight to Liu Zheng, took him by the hand and walked out.

"Go with grandma and ignore your father. If he doesn't want to eat, then forget it. My dear grandson cannot go hungry. Your grandpa and grandma have been waiting for a long time. It is not polite to let the elders wait for the younger ones. You must not learn from your father in the future..." Liu He looked at the backs of the two people with a helpless look on his face.

"Alas, I really forgot my son after having a grandson..."

Zhang Yu consoled him, "Mother has always been like this. She loves Zheng'er, Qian'er, and several other children from my uncle's family very much. You are a great general, but you are still competing with your own son. Don't you think it's shameful? Let's go. It won't be too late to finish your meal and then test Zheng'er."

In the afternoon, Liu He gave his son some further instruction on reading and martial arts. Seeing his son's diligence, he felt very pleased.

Liu Zheng suddenly looked up and asked, "Father, my tenth birthday is in half a year, and I want to ask you for a gift in advance.

Neither of them expected him to bring up this matter suddenly, and they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Liu He was just happy and said with a smile: "Oh? Zheng'er, tell me what you want."

Liu Zheng said without hesitation: "I want a proper weapon, the same magical weapon as my father and several uncles."

Liu Hewan was not expecting him to say that and was stunned.

"You are only ten years old, why do you need weapons? The weapons on the weapon rack are enough for martial arts. The real magic weapons can cut through hair and iron like mud. If you are not careful and destroy things at home or hurt people, it will be a great sin. This is not allowed. Please change one."

When Liu Zheng heard this, his little face immediately became puffy again.

"Father is biased. When Brother Gao joined the army, you gave him a weapon. I am your biological son, but you didn't give me one. You are biased, biased."

Liu He was so dumbfounded that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You kid, Gao Yi is five years older than you, and he joined the army to serve his country. You are just practicing martial arts at home, how can you compare them? Don't be silly."

Liu Zheng insisted: "No, if father doesn't agree, I will go to grandma to complain."

After saying that, he really ran outside. Liu He immediately became anxious and quickly pulled him back. If he had to go to Xu's and Zhang Tong's couple to cry and complain, he would not be able to live in peace today.

Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Husband, although Zheng'er is a child, he has a very stubborn temper. You should agree to it. Otherwise, he won't give up even if he keeps asking you to do it until the evening."

While speaking, she winked at Liu He. Liu He and she were deeply in love, so he understood immediately.

"Okay, okay, I promise you."

"Hehe, father is the best." Liu Zheng was delighted.

"Wait a minute, I have two requests for you. You must agree to them first, and then this promise will count."

Liu Zheng said without blinking, "Father, please tell me."

"First, I can give you a weapon. I will have three masters forge it for you. However, you are still young, so the weapon will not be sharpened. It is only for your martial arts training. In a few years, when you grow up and want to join the army, I will sharpen it for you."

"Second, you must practice diligently in the next six months. On your birthday, I will take you to the army. You can pick any ordinary soldier. As long as you can fight him for 20 rounds without losing, I will give you this weapon. How do you think?"

Liu Zheng agreed without hesitation: "I agree. A man should stick to his word. Pinky promise!"

"Haha, okay, let's pinky promise."

Two fingers, one big and one small, were hooked together.

At this time, Zhang Yu suddenly stood up and pulled Liu He: "Husband, Mr. Xun You is here."

"Hmm?" Liu He heard this and looked outside. Sure enough, he saw Xun You standing respectfully not far away.

He hurriedly told Liu Zheng, "You and your mother should study hard here and not be lazy."

"I understand, father, don't worry." Liu Zheng nodded very hard.

Liu He walked over quickly and said, "Gongda is here, let's go to the study and talk."
