Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Taihang Juyi Village.

"Sir, my family slaughtered a chicken today. Would you like to come to my house for dinner in the evening?"

A boy of about twelve or thirteen ran out of the classroom, stood under the wall, looked up at Xu You who was sitting there, and said with anticipation.

"No!" Xu You refused without even looking at the boy.

What's so rare about a chicken? He had eaten all kinds of delicacies when he followed Yuan Shao. Only these rustic bandits would treat a chicken like a treasure.

The boy's smile froze, and he lowered his head and whispered, "What would you like to eat, sir? I'll go find it for you in the mountains."

Xu You turned to look at him and said with a bit of evil amusement, "I want to eat bear paws. Can you find them?"

The boy's eyes lit up immediately. "I know there's a bear roaming the back mountains. Tomorrow I'll go there with my father. If we see one, I'll kill it and bring it to you, sir."

"Your waist isn't even as thick as a bear's paw, and you're still hitting it. It could just as well hit you." Xu You rolled his eyes and said fiercely, "Go back to the classroom and study. If you don't do well in the final exam, I'll spank you."

The boy bowed to Xu You, turned around and ran back to the classroom.

Xu You curled his lips and swung his legs in boredom.

He has been in this den of thieves for almost two years, and his life is extremely depressing.

Except for those who are too old or too young, everyone here has to work, and the prisoner is no exception. On the third day after he was captured, a village chief found him and asked him to collect straw. He was really shocked at that time.

Who was Xu You? A trusted advisor to Yuan Benchu, born into a wealthy family in Nanyang, he had lived a life of luxury since childhood, yet he'd never even had to mow grass. And yet, he was supposed to be collecting straw?

Xu You flatly rejected the so-called village chief's request, and then he was cut off from food. The village chief said that if you don't work, you won't have food to eat. This is the rule set by the boss.

Xu You considered himself a man of integrity, one who would never bow down for a few pieces of silver. However, after two days of holding on, he couldn't bear it any longer. He thought about how much he had read, how he had been selected as a filial and honest official at such a young age, and the great cause he and Yuan Benchu ​​had planned. How could he die like this? He was unwilling to accept this!

He lowered his head, but the straw had already been harvested and the next task was to plow the soil, so he could only pick up the hoe and do it.

On the first day he dug a hole in his foot, on the second day he was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back, and on the third day he had blisters on his hands.

He really couldn't stand it anymore, he tried to escape, but there was no chance at all.

He began to look forward to Yuan Shao coming to wipe out the stronghold. He waited and waited, and even when he became proficient in using the hoe, there was still no news from Yuan Shao.

He was also looking forward to the time when the elusive boss would take them, the captives, to negotiate terms with Yuan Shao. However, by the time he had learned all the farm work, he had never met the boss once.

He can only continue his life as a farmer!

Until one day, when he was bored and wandering around, he passed by a school and suddenly remembered that he could earn food with his knowledge, so he asked to be a teacher in the school.

The scarred second-in-command agreed, and Xu You could finally throw away the hoe and pick up the scroll again.

Xu You looked down on these bandit sons from the bottom of his heart and did not put any effort into teaching them. They just went to school to spend their days and get food. However, what he did not know was that this school had midterm and final exams. In the second month of his teaching, after the midterm exam, the students in the class he taught were at the bottom of the class. He was punished by having half of his food rations deducted, and he could only cook porridge every day to barely survive.

Later he learned that if his students performed well in the midterm and final exams, not only would the students be rewarded, but he as a teacher would also be rewarded. Xu You, who had been drinking porridge for three months, did not dare to fool around anymore. In order to have enough food and meat to eat, he began to teach these country brats seriously.

In order to help them do well in the final exams, he racked his brains to find ways to improve their grades. He worked so diligently that he almost neglected food and sleep.

Hard work pays off. In the final exam, almost all the students in his class ranked among the top. He received three times more food rations than usual. There were shops in the valley, and he could exchange the extra food rations for clothes, meat and other daily necessities. He finally lived a life without going hungry.

As the students' grades improved, their parents also respected him very much. Today the Zhang family sent them vegetables, and tomorrow the Li family sent them eggs. When they met him on the road, they would respectfully call him "Sir".

He gained some sense of honor from these bumpkins, but he still looked down on them from the bottom of his heart. The reason he worked hard in teaching was just to make his life more comfortable.

Xu You came back to his senses from his memories. Before him were lush green seedlings. Two water wheels were turning by the small river in the middle. Thick gray-black smoke often rose from the distant valley. A student said that there was a steel plant there.

In addition to the steel mill, there is also a paper mill. Xu You simply cannot imagine that the students in this village actually use paper books and even write on paper. It is really too luxurious.

There was another thing that made him feel even more luxurious. He remembered one day, the student in charge of collecting homework in the class gave him a piece of written paper. He didn't understand what it meant, and the student said generously that it was for him to use to wipe his butt.

Only these bandits would dare to think of using paper to wipe their butts, but it is indeed much more convenient to use than toilet paper.

Although his family was rich, they could not afford to use cloth or paper to wipe their buttocks. I heard that Yuan Benchu ​​used silk cloth, but I don't know whether it is true or not.

This village is full of strangeness, but all of this tells him that the mysterious boss is definitely a very extraordinary person.

At that moment, the bell rang for the end of get out of class at the kindergarten next door. Xu You turned around and saw a group of three or five-year-old children running out chattering. The third son, Yuan Shang, was running in front, carrying a small backpack. He saw Xu You sitting on the wall and ran over, his head tilted back and yelling, "Xu Ziyuan, hold me! I want to go up too."

Xu You jumped down from the wall and picked up Yuan Shang, then casually asked, "What did you learn today, young master?"

Yuan Shang said, "Teacher told us stories. You must have never heard the story of Calabash Brothers. Do you want me to tell it to you?"

Without waiting for Xu You's reply, Yuan Shang began to show off, "Once upon a time, there was an old man who planted a gourd. Guess what? The gourd that grew from the gourd seedling turned into a baby..."

Yuan Shangdong finished telling the story of the seven gourd brothers with a hammer and a stick, and then said, "The teacher also taught us a poem. I have memorized it all. I will recite it to you! I am hoeing the field at noon, and my sweat drips into the soil..."

"Oh, this cottage is so much fun. There's a carousel, a sand pit, and a slide inside the kindergarten. I've never played with such fun things in my life. I really like it here. Xu Ziyuan, do you like it here?"

Xu You's shaking legs suddenly stopped and he fell silent. To be honest, he had a good impression of this place, but his life goal was to help his lord to rule the world fairly and become an official, not to be a teacher.

He didn't understand what the bandits wanted to do by kidnapping them. For such a long time, they didn't take any action, as if they were just kidnapping a group of prisoners to enrich the population.

In addition to him, there were Ju Su's wife and son Ju Hu, Yan Liang's wife and daughter Yan Bing, Tian Feng's son Tian Zhan and daughter Tian Yi, and a concubine of Qu Yi.

According to one of the thieves, they originally only wanted to abduct the wife and children, and did not want to abduct the concubine. However, Qu Yi's family was not in Yecheng, and there was only one concubine in Yecheng, so the thieves abducted her.
