The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 7 A mountain is taller than a mountain
Following the shout from the guard Dunwu, the two naive horses driving slowly stopped in front of the Zhou mansion. Sun Shao jumped out of the car, grabbed a small stool from the back of the car before Qiao Ying, and then gave the Daqiao, who was dressed in plain dark clothes, stretched out his hand.With a faint smile on the corner of Daqiao's mouth, he glanced at Sun Shao with satisfaction, put his hand on Sun Shao's hand, and stepped on the small stool carefully to get out of the car.

Zhou Xun, who had been waiting on the steps for a long time, walked down quickly, and bowed to the bridge and Sun Shao: "Auntie, brother, it's hard work from afar."

"Ah Xun, how is your mother?" Daqiao asked casually as he walked forward slowly.

"Thank you aunt for your concern. My mother is well and is waiting at the door." Zhou Xun supported the bridge on the other side, and replied with a smile on his face: "I received a letter from my aunt yesterday, and learned that my aunt will move to the humble house. My mother is very happy." I'm happy, I got up early in the morning, and I personally cooked and prepared a few home-cooked dishes, and I'm going to ask my aunt to evaluate them."

Daqiao listened and nodded slightly. The three of them entered the gate of the mansion and the courtyard. Zhou Yin and Zhou Yu, brothers and sisters dressed in new clothes, greeted each other respectfully and greeted Daqiao.Zhou Yin is 15 years old, looks handsome, is stronger than Zhou Xun, and looks more aggressive, his eyes are agile, unwilling to settle down, his eyes glanced at Daqiao's face, and then fell on Sun Shao's face On his face, he showed a meaningful smile, as if a wolf saw its prey.Like Zhou Xun, he is also capable of both civil and military skills, but his martial arts are a little better. If he handles it carefully, he can still fight Sun Shao for a few rounds.Unlike Zhou Xun's gentle personality, he is more outgoing.

"Brother, I heard that you felt unwell a few days ago, has your body ever been in order?" Zhou Yin asked with a smile.

Zhou Yu, who was just 13 years old and wearing a pink skirt, couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing softly when he saw Zhou Yin attacking Sun Shao as soon as he met.

"Thank you, brother, for your concern. He is fine." Sun Shao replied calmly with his usual expression.He already knew about the festivities between the three brothers and sisters of the Zhou family and him, plus yesterday the bridge took care of him inside and out, so of course he would not be easily fooled and provoked by them, so although Zhou Yin took the initiative to attack, he took it lightly.

"So that's the case, then I can rest assured that I can have a good drink with my brother today." Although Zhou Yin was a little disappointed, he said relentlessly: "I hope that my brother will not refuse today with excuses."

"Your brother has an appointment, and he should accompany you." Sun Shao smiled slightly.

The contest between the children of the aristocratic family has never been a battle of open flames. They always speak cleverly. If the other party pretends not to hear, either the other party is avoiding the battle, or the other party has not heard the meaning at all, but no matter what the reason is , they can't always pick it out.Zhou Yin pressed on every step of the way. If he wanted to follow Sun Shao's previous temper, he would have already changed his color and retorted. Of course, that was in Zhou Yin's hands, but if he answered calmly today, he would not be angry at all, and Zhou Yin would not be able to understand it for a while. Knowing his details, after much deliberation, I can only think that Sun Shao is willing to be inferior and avoids the battle wholeheartedly.If one party has no fighting spirit, the other party will naturally lose interest. Zhou Yin shook his head, and had no choice but to give up his plan to pursue and fight fiercely.

While the two of them were talking, Zhou Xun supported the bridge and walked in, neither stopped Zhou Yin, nor interrupted, and the smile on his face never diminished, as if he didn't hear it.On the other hand, Zhou Yu's ears were pricked up, and his two big dark eyes swept back and forth on the face of the person who was speaking. He wanted to watch a good show, but he didn't expect that Sun Shao, like a papaya, refused to challenge at all. Somewhat disappointed.She smiled coquettishly and pushed Zhou Xun away: "Brother, let me get closer to my aunt."

Zhou Xun nodded with a smile, stepped aside, Sun Shao also let go of Daqiao's arm, took a step back, and walked side by side with Zhou Yin.He was three years older than Zhou Yin, a head taller, and standing next to Zhou Yin immediately made Zhou Yin feel pressured and uncomfortable. Zhou Yin wanted to let go, but he was afraid of losing his momentum, so he had to hold on.

"Auntie, I was blamed by my aunt yesterday." Zhou Yu pouted and shook Daqiao's arm tenderly: "Auntie must make it up to me."

Daqiao was a little surprised: "Ayu, where did you say that?"

"My aunt asked me to write a book with my aunt, and my aunt returned the book. The calligraphy is exquisite and elegant. Yu'er is compared with her aunt, but when the chicken sees the phoenix, it pales in comparison. Therefore, my aunt scolded me, saying that Yu'er doesn't work hard. Aunt, you Should I teach some calligraphy formulas to Yu'er as compensation?" Zhou Yu hugged Daqiao with a smile, his eyes became crooked and full of moons, like a cunning little fox.

After Daqiao heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up into a beautiful arc, and he patted Zhou Yu's little hand holding her arm: "Ah Yu, then you're blaming me, and it has nothing to do with me. You want to find someone I can't rely on my aunt to compensate you."

Zhou Yu was taken aback, she glanced at Daqiao, and Daqiao was also looking at her with a smile, there was a hint of pride in that smile, she couldn't believe it, she turned her head to look at Sun Shao, who seemed unable to speak, and Looking at the bridge: "Auntie, you can't play tricks with us juniors. If you cherish your skills and don't teach Yu'er, then you can only say that Yu'er's qualifications are crude and unrefined, but if you say someone else, that's a shame." That's not right, is there another expert in the mansion? You will never say that the letter of reply was done by the eldest brother, right?"

The three brothers and sisters are all familiar with Sun Shao's calligraphy. They are rough-headed and messy, with long spears and big halberds, so they can barely recognize what is written. There is no artistry at all. Sun Shao usually said to himself, calligraphy, It's enough to recognize it, why pay too much attention to it, a man should be like Wei Huo, holding a strong soldier in his hand, spanning thousands of miles, making contributions, calligraphy, and Xiao Daoer, this is not what a man should do.So after receiving Daqiao's reply, Xiaoqiao and their three brothers and sisters all agreed that it was Daqiao's calligraphy. No one ever thought about Sun Shao's head.As the saying goes, a book is like a person, such elegant calligraphy has nothing to do with Sun Shao, a vulgar man.

Daqiao was proud of herself. For so many years, it was the first time that Sun Shao gave her face. The three children of her younger sister were smarter and smarter than the other, so she naturally liked them. It's not a good feeling either, Sun Shao was really a rough person before, and she couldn't be made proud, but this time it was a rare opportunity for Sun Shao to dominate the three of them, and she naturally wouldn't let it go easily.Seeing Zhou Yu's inconceivable face, she was silent for a moment, whetted the appetite of the three of them, then nodded and said, "Yu'er is still smart, she guessed right right away, it was Aman's handwriting."

The three of Zhou Xun were taken aback, and turned their gazes to the calm Sun Shao at the same time. Zhou Yu exclaimed: "Brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so diligent?"

Sun Shao smiled lightly, as if he was a little nervous: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, my hands are sparse after illness, and my graffiti works are filthy and respectable, I'm really ashamed."

Zhou Yu curled her mouth, trying to laugh, but she didn't. As a woman, she would not have any achievements in martial arts. Among the three siblings, she is good at literature and art, especially calligraphy. Tomorrow, Xiaoqiao will ask her to write books and Daqiao just wanted to show off in front of Daqiao, but she didn't expect to be self-defeating, but she was overshadowed by Sun Shao, who she always looked down upon. How would she live in the future?
Zhou Yu had mixed feelings in his heart, and Zhou Xun and Zhou Yin were also very surprised.As soon as I saw Sun Shao today, I felt that he was different from the past. I thought he had accepted his fate after being hit, but he never expected that he would gain the upper hand as soon as the formal contest started.

"Hey, you children, you don't understand etiquette at all. When your aunt arrives, you don't invite her to sit in the hall. Why stand in the court and gossip?" A coquettish voice came from the back of the hall. Xiaoqiao, who had a brocade pattern and a curly train and deep clothes, walked out quickly.
