Chapter 42 Childhood
"Father, don't you think it's a bit boring to just eat? How about we play a little game?" Uncle Chen suggested.

"It's true, but old man, I can't play with you young people. If you play, I'll be the referee for you." Old Man Chen nodded.

"Sister, what would you like to play?" Uncle Chen ignored his friends and asked about Concubine Chen who was beside Mr. Chen.

Concubine Chen was stunned for a moment, and the hand holding the crab legs stopped.Concubine Chen never thought that her brother would ask herself after the proposal, because the table was basically full of men, and as a woman, she didn't need to ask her opinion at all.

I feel like I'm back in my childhood.

"Sister, sister, brother, let me introduce you. This is Lu Hong, a student my father accepted! We are all out of class, and I specially brought him here to play with you." Ten-year-old Chen Yong brought Lu Hong to the backyard of the General's Mansion.

"Brother." The six-year-old Concubine Chen ran down from the swing like a beautiful little butterfly, and ran straight in front of Chen Yong.

"Hello, Sister Yu'er." Lu Hong, who was about the same age as Chen Yong, stepped forward to make an edit to Concubine Chen.

"Hello, Brother Hong." After speaking, he turned to look at his brother.

"Brother, brother, do you really want to play with me? Don't you have any homework today?" The little concubine Chen looked at her brother expectantly.

Because she had no mother since she was a child, and Concubine Chen's father never remarried, Concubine Chen had no playmates since she was a child. Although she was often accompanied by her own father, Concubine Chen still wanted to have her own playmate when she was young.

And Chen Yong, who was always taught to love his sister, took on the task of playing with his sister, but as he got older, he had to learn more and more things, and he could spend less and less time with Concubine Chen.

Suddenly, his elder brother not only had time to accompany him, but also brought a younger brother with him, which made Concubine Chen, who had been bored for a long time, look forward to it very much.

"Well, sister, what would you like to play with?" He said while touching the top of his sister's hair.
"Well, can I play whatever I say?" The little concubine Chen looked excitedly at her brother and Lu Hong beside her.

"En." Chen Yong nodded, and so did Lu Hong beside him.

The little Concubine Chen jumped up happily, and turned around Chen Yong and Lu Hong, the silver bell-like laughter echoing in their ears.

"Brother, Brother Hong, let's play lottery!"

Voting is very simple. Put a bottle in the distance, hold ten marked bamboo sticks in each person's hand, and then cast them into the bottle together. Whoever gets the most bamboo sticks will win.

Regardless of Concubine Chen's young age, Mr. Chen loved this daughter the most in the past. He often played lottery with his daughter in his free time, and taught him a lot of tricks in lottery. He wanted his daughter to grow up happily Who knows, but in the end she became a victim of the imperial power, and she was ordered by the royal family when she was only thirteen, and she was married at fifteen.

Ever since she had a brother Hong, until her 13th birthday, Concubine Chen had the happiest life in those days.

Every day, someone plays with me and pushes the swing for me.After going to school, my elder brother and Hong elder brother taught me where I didn't know how to do it. Occasionally, the three of them would fish in the lotus pavilion in the courtyard with a fishing rod.

I remember once again I accidentally caught my father's favorite koi and broke the mouth of the fish. My brother even took the blame for me and was punished by my father for copying books.
