Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

"Dad, Dad, someone said something bad about you! I heard it with my own ears..."

The little bun rushed into the earth building with his short legs, shouting.

Sima Yi was sweating. He thought the little guy had forgotten about it because of the interruption just now, but he didn't expect him to come and complain as soon as he came back.

He quickly caught up with the little man and explained, "That's not bad. They just have a misunderstanding about you."

Aunt Xu came out of the kitchen, looked at the sweaty little boy, and said with a smile, "Who said something bad about your father? Come and tell your mother-in-law."

The little boy snuggled into her arms and said angrily, "That person said my father wasn't a wise leader, that he was addicted to pleasure and that he was extravagant."

Aunt Xu wiped his sweat while scolding him, "That man is talking nonsense. Your father is not only a wise leader, but also the best father and the best husband in the world."

The little bun nodded repeatedly and smiled sweetly, "Yes, yes, I also think my dad is the best dad!"

At this time, Lu Bu came down from the second floor, and the little boy left Aunt Xu and threw himself into his arms.

"Dad, the four people who said bad things about you are in the office outside. You have to teach them a lesson."

Lu Bu wanted to say, "Dad, go beat them up right now." But thinking of Ah Mo's daily guidance of her son, thinking that this little guy would shoulder the heavy responsibility of governing the country in the future, and thinking that his Lu family couldn't follow in the footsteps of the Cao family, he could only suppress his desire to spoil his son and asked, "What did they say to make my son so angry?"

The little bun repeated Pang Tong's words and encouraged Lu Bu to beat people up.

Sima Yi added, "Those four men were all dressed as scholars, two of them looked to be in their twenties. They were here to answer the call for talented people. However, they had some misunderstandings about the lotus pond outside, which is why they said what they said."

Lu Bu nodded and patiently explained the misunderstanding to the little boy. He said, "What you see may not be what you hear. You must learn to distinguish right from wrong and look at things from other people's perspectives. It's normal for those four people to have misunderstandings about your father after seeing the pond. You should explain it to them clearly instead of beating them up based on one-sided statements."

Although Lu Bu said this, he was silently complaining about himself in his heart. His son inherited this characteristic from his reckless father. He was like this when he was young. If anyone dared to say bad things about him to his face, no matter whether it was true or not, he would beat him up first.

The little boy nodded, not quite understanding what he was doing. Lu Bu was afraid that the people outside would have to wait for a long time, so he handed the person over to Aunt Xu and went out.

Xu Shu and his three companions did not enter the hall, but stood in the yard waiting. Lu Bu saw them before he reached the door. Two of them had tied their hair into crowns. The one wearing a crescent-shaped white robe had an extremely handsome face. He looked like a scholar, but he was strong and had a martial temperament. The one wearing a green long gown had a relatively ordinary appearance and looked nonchalant.

Looking at the two young men at the back, the fair-skinned one is also very handsome. He looks younger than Zhongda, but he is quite tall. His expression is calm, and his eyes are bright.

The other young man was of dark yellow complexion, of medium height, with a silly look on his face. He was comparable to Xu Chu, but his body was not as strong as Xu Chu.

Xu Shu and the other three also saw Lu Bu. Although they did not like him, they still stepped forward to greet him.

The four of them bowed and saluted. Xu Shu said, "Xu Yuanzhi from Yingchuan greets the envoy!"

"Yuanzhi?" Lü Bu was stunned for a moment before finally reacting. His face was filled with surprise as he asked, "Are you the eldest brother of the Xu family who took in Amo in Yangdi?"

Xu Shu nodded, "It's not really considered as taking her in. Ah Mo paid for it back then..."

Before he could finish his words, Lu Bu came forward and excitedly shook his hand, laughing loudly, "You are really the eldest brother of the Xu family. A-Mo has been thinking about you for a long time, and finally you are here. Come, come, come with me into the house to talk."

As Lü Bu ushered the people in, he said to a servant, "Quick, go and tell Auntie that Yuan Zhi is here, and then go to the academy to ask A Mo to come back."

He then said to another servant, "Quickly make tea, four cups for each person, and bring up some snacks."

Seeing such a warm and hospitable Lu Bu, the four of them couldn't help but smack their lips in amazement. Is this Lu Bu? Favoring his concubine over his wife? It doesn't look like it at all!

In the hall, after several people took their seats, Zhuge Liang and the other two introduced themselves one by one. Lu Bu was secretly happy after hearing this. The two talented people who devoted themselves to his little boy were all here. Together with Sima Yi and the young Fa Zheng who came with Cai Yong some time ago, the top talented boy group that Amo mentioned was finally gathered together!

Although Lu Bu had already learned the historical details of these people from A Mo, he did not show any reaction that he had known them for a long time. He just treated them as ordinary people and did not mention the recruitment order at all. Instead, he chatted with Xu Shu about the past as if he was an old friend.

"Amo once told me that because of her terrifying appearance, she wandered around most of Yangdi but no one was willing to take her in. She was almost caught and beaten with a stick by patrolling yamen runners. Fortunately, your family didn't despise her, so she finally had a place to stay. Later, you even punished a bully for her. When I heard her talk about you killing that bully with a single blow, I felt so relieved."

Lü Bu looked at Xu Shu affectionately. "Amo's benefactor is also my benefactor. Auntie has helped me take care of Baozi and Jiaozi over the years. Amo and I have long regarded Auntie as our own family. Brother Xu, you can treat this place as your own home in the future."

"Brother Xu?" Hearing this address, Xu Shu's mouth twitched. It seemed that this guy was older than him!

"Your Excellency, you can just call me Yuanzhi."

After hearing what Lu Bu said, Xu Shu realized that he had misunderstood Lu Bu. This man's eyes were full of tender love when he talked about A Mo, and he mentioned A Mo in almost every sentence. How could he do such a thing as to favor a concubine and kill his wife?

At this time, servants brought up tea and snacks. Lu Bu still played the role of a warm host and introduced them to the unique flower tea of ​​Bingzhou.

"This floral tea was also invented by A-Mo. After the tea leaves are picked, they are stir-fried to remove the greenness. Then chrysanthemum, jasmine, rose, and lotus flowers are added to the stir-fry. The tea has a floral aroma and is slightly bitter at first, but has a sweet and fragrant aftertaste."

Lu Bu chuckled. "To use Ah Mo's words, the tea we drank earlier could be called a dark dish. Everyone, why don't you try this flower tea?"

In front of each of the four people were four tea cups, each containing scented tea made from the four flowers mentioned above.

"I don't know what flavors you like, so I asked someone to brew a cup of each," Lu Bu explained.

The four of them each picked up one of the cups and took a sip. It was just as Lu Bu said, slightly bitter at first but sweet and fragrant in the aftertaste.

Lu Bu then explained the two desserts, "These are cakes made with lotus root and lotus seeds respectively. They are refreshing and cooling in the summer. Let's see if they suit your taste."

The four of them looked at Lu Bu and then at the pastries with strange expressions, not quite understanding what Lu Bu meant.

They had all heard the little guy's loud complaints when he entered the tulou. Lü Bu must have also heard what they said by the pond, but he didn't react at all? And he even displayed these lotus-based cakes? Did he not care what others thought of him?
