Section 4 Carpenter

"Xiao Yu'er, Xiao Yu'er, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time." Liu Cong ran out loudly. When he saw Cao Chong standing in the yard, he turned around and ran away. With a "bang", he bumped into Cai Xuan who was following him. Cai Xuan's nose was hurt by him, and when he saw Cao Chong looking at them with joy, he was so angry that he covered his nose with one hand and hit Liu Cong with the other hand. Liu Cong laughed and was punched by her, but he didn't run away again. He just looked at Cao Chong with embarrassment.

Cao Chong was not angry either. He knew that Liu Cong was honest and had been controlled by Cai Xuan. Last time, Cai Xuan came forward to beg him and was not sent to Qingzhou to be the governor, and he obeyed Cai Xuan even more. Moreover, he gave up his mansion in Xiangyang City and lived in the Cai family. Even the servants here stood on Cai Xuan's side, so he was naturally bullied. It would be considered light to be punched by Cai Xuan like this.

"What's the matter with Xiao Yu'er? Da Yu'er bullies you again?" Cao Chong pulled Liu Cong, who was smiling and asked with a smile.

"No, we were playing cards, but she suddenly ran away and left us three. My mother was anxious and asked me to scream." Seeing that Cao Chong was speaking kindly, Liu Cong was not afraid of him anymore, so he told him about the matter. It turned out that Cao Chong was idle and made a deck of playing cards and pulled Cai Ji to play. But the two Madam Cai, one big and one little, found out, and played more vigorously than him. Liu Cong had nothing to do all day, and accompanied the three Madam Cai to play cards every day, and his hands were itchy if he didn't play for a day. When Dian Man sent the eldest sister-in-law back from the Yang family, the four of them were having fun. But Kuai Ying found the problem, so he called Cai Ji out and left them three missing ones, and didn't go back for a long time. Mrs. Cai was so anxious that she came out and called out.

"I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore, you won't have money. If you play again, my husband will really go out to sell the words." Cai Ji walked over with a smile, took Cai Xuan's hand, and smiled at Cao Chong: "Husband, wait for a moment, Xiaoying'er is writing a letter, it's time to be fine."

"Okay." Cao Chong nodded and asked curiously: "Why, is Zhongyu very insidious?"

"Of course." Liu Cong, who had been lowering his head, raised his head and leaned close to Cao Chong and laughed in a low voice: "I have won the pocket money for the three of them." As he said that, an extremely proud smile appeared on his face.

"Really or false?" Cao Chong looked at Liu Cong with some disbelief. He played cards with the three girls of the Cai family. They mastered it very quickly. It was not easy for him, a veteran in his previous life, to win. Liu Cong learned the latest, and could he win three in one?

"Really." Liu Cong saw that he didn't believe it, and was a little anxious. He pulled him away. When he walked to the inner hall, he saw Mrs. Cai was bored and touching the card. When he saw Cao Chong coming in, he quickly stood up to salute. Cao Chong smiled and returned the salute. Mrs. Cai was also his elder now, so he could not be neglected.

"Look, I won all of this." Liu Cong took out a heavy purse and smiled proudly.

Cao Chong looked at the three Mrs. Cai with his purse, and looked at the four people with different expressions in disbelief. Mrs. Cai naturally had no expression, but just smiled calmly. Cai Ji didn't take it seriously, and Cai Xuan, who was ashamed, covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Xiao Yu'er, get out of here, I'll play two games." Cao Chong sat down without believing in the evil. Liu Conghuan shouted, connecting and greeting them in the seat. After playing a few cards, Cao Chong did not lose very badly, but he also encountered a strong enemy. Liu Cong seemed to remember every card very clearly, and there was almost no wrong card. Cao Chong played the last card, stopped and asked Liu Cong, "Do you know how many cards I have in my hand now?"

Liu Cong smiled and said it all in a slight way, but it was almost the same. Cao Chong glanced at Liu Cong, patted Liu Cong on the shoulder hard and said, "Zhongyu, you are so awesome, you have a good memory than that Wang Zhongxuan, you have such a good memory?"

"And!" Cai Xuan snorted disdainfully: "Can he compare with Wang Zhongxuan? Wang Zhongxuan reads thousands of books and never forgets everything he reads. He is full of poetry and books, and he is full of poetry and books, and he is just a carpenter."

Liu Cong was originally very proud of being praised by Cao Chong. When Cai Xuan said this, he immediately became half a piece of shorter as if he had been pierced. Cao Chong felt funny and a little strange when he saw it. It was easy to say about the ones in front. Where did he start with "only being a carpenter"?

Cai Ji leaned into his ear and said it with a smile. It turned out that Liu Cong was not good at reading, so he barely finished reading the Analects of Confucius and read the Book of Filial Piety. Liu Biao invited several great scholars from Jingzhou to preach to him. As a result, he would read at most half a volume of books every time, but he couldn't continue reading anyway. He was so angry that the great scholars shook their heads and sighed. Later, Liu Biao gave up and stopped carpenters no longer. He was happy and followed those craftsmen every day to play with them, and he became obsessed with carpenters. You can't say that he did a good job in carpenters. Even the masters praised the furniture he made, which made Liu Biao very angry. If he hadn't married Cai Xuan and had the help of Mrs. Cai, he would have had the chance to be the governor of Jingzhou for a few days. Liu Biao usually didn't like him at all, and he always liked the eldest son Liu Qi. All of this was caused by Mrs. Cai.

Damn, there was a carpenter emperor in the Ming Dynasty. Unexpectedly, there was a carpenter in the Han Dynasty. Cao Chong looked at Liu Cong in surprise, with a look of disbelief on his face. Liu Cong was anxious when he saw it, and ran to the inner room for a long time. He took out a small car from a corner and placed it in front of Cao Chong. When Cao Chong saw it, he rushed over and snatched it in his hand and looked carefully again and again, and couldn't let it go.

This is a small car that is a bit similar to a wheelbarrow in later generations. It has beautiful patterns on it. The front of the car looks like a bull's head. The two handles are the two hind legs of the bull. Each spoke on the small wheel is clear and looks like it can be disassembled. It can be rotated on a table.

"Is this what you did?" Cao Chong looked at Liu Cong happily and said.

"Yes." Liu Cong smiled happily when he saw Cao Chong liked it, and looked at Cai Xuan timidly again. Cai Xuan was angry and poor, staring at Liu Cong fiercely. However, when Cao Chong liked it, he did not immediately have an attack.

"I hid this. She will find it and it will be trampled again." Liu Cong said quietly to Cao Chong.

Cao Chong was about to say something, but someone came to report that Kuai Ying's letter was written and the carriage was ready, so he could set off immediately. Cao Chong didn't bother to say more to Liu Cong, and stood up and said, "Zhongyu, you are a piece of gold hidden in the soil. I have something to do today and I don't have time to talk to you. I will talk to you when I come back. If you have something to do, I will ask you to help you with it."

"Really?" Liu Cong, who was so idle, was overjoyed and ran out with Cao Chong.

"Of course, I'm afraid you'll be too busy to sleep by then." Cao Chong turned around and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll talk about it when I come back."

"Okay, okay." Liu Cong nodded repeatedly, watching Cao rush into the car and walk away, then he returned to the inner room with a smile of laughter, and said proudly: "Da Yu'er, I want to help Cang Shu if you have something to do."

"And." Although Cai Xuan was disdainful, she knew that Cao Chong was not joking just now, and she knew that things were not false, so she was much better at the moment. Liu Cong is now receiving his salary but nothing happened. She felt uncomfortable in her heart. Now Cao Chong said that he had something to ask Liu Cong to help, which means that Liu Cong is still a useful person. Even if he is a carpenter, it is better than being idle. That is to help the young master of the Cao family.

Cao Chong asked Cao Cao for orders and left Xiangyang City and headed north. He sat in the carriage and laughed all the way. It was a pity that Liu Cong, a skilled person, was turned into a waste by those Confucian scholars. He had never been very easy to transform the Pili chariot. Those gunners were illiterate and did not understand carpenters. It was very difficult to say. Now that Liu Cong, who recognizes words and understands carpenters, thinks that he can understand the meaning by just saying it, and there is no need to spend so much time talking.

"Young Master has encountered something happy, and he has been laughing all the way." Zhou Buyi finally couldn't help it.

Cao Chong smiled and said about Liu Cong's affairs. Zhou Buyi smiled, but he smiled a little disdainful: "Young Master, you pay too much attention to those last chapters. The saints use Taoism and villains use skills. These craftsmen's affairs are not worth your efforts. Jingzhou has many talents, and there is no see the young masters referring to them. Why do you care so much about these craftsmen? These people can only be used, not trustworthy. Young masters and great talents cannot always be trapped in these small things."

Looking at Zhou Buyi, who looked like he was risking his life to advise, Cao Chong couldn't help but laughed out loud. He bowed to him and grabbed the hot teacup from Zhou Buyi's hand, waved to him and said, "Get out of the car!"

"What's wrong?" Zhou Buyi was puzzled. Even if the young master was unwilling to listen to his advice, he just ignored him. Why did he get him out of the car today? After he got out of the car, Cao Chong said to him again: "Give you two choices, one is to follow me on foot, and the other is to ride on a horse, but you have to remove all the horse harnesses and ride a horse with bare back."

"Young master, ride a horse with a bare back? I might as well walk there." Zhou Buyi's face suddenly became bitter. Even Xu Yi and Dianman who were following the side didn't understand. When Wei Yan saw it, he came over to listen to the truth.

"Cars are made by craftsmen, horses are born, but horse harnesses are made by craftsmen. Since you think you should value Taoism but not skills, just follow them for a while." Cao Chong smiled and said, "I am already polite to you today. Don't forget that the clothes you are also made by craftsmen."

"Ah?!" Zhou Buyi was shocked and quickly covered his clothes tightly, for fear that Cao Chong would take him naked, so that he would be too embarrassed.

Seeing his embarrassed look, Cao Chong smiled proudly, turned around and stretched his legs and shouted, "It's better to take a car alone. The place is spacious and you can feel more comfortable. Big Shuang and Xiao Shuang, please squeeze my son for me."
