"You may wonder, why am I so excited when I heard the name Lei Huanxi?"

What Guan Juren said was exactly the doubts in everyone's heart.

Yes, why?

This seems a bit abnormal.

It's abnormal.

"Because, the two brothers once asked the benefactor's name."

Guan Juren said slowly there: "That person, say his name is Lei Huanxi!"

"puff"--

Lei Huanxi almost spit out.

Also called Lei Huanxi?

coincide?

It's definitely a coincidence.

The name Lei Huanxi is not complicated, but there are definitely not many people who call this name.

No wonder Guan Juren was so excited when he heard the three words "Lei Huanxi".

"Uncle Guan." Lei Huanxi felt it was necessary to ask: "Do you know what the person named Lei Huanxi looks like?"

Lei Huanxi felt very awkward when she said this.

However, since this story has been passed down, I believe that I will tell their descendants about the appearance of "Lei Huanxi"?

"I have a portrait of him." Guan Juren is better than the description in his mouth: "In order to commemorate his benefactor, the two brothers later found the painter and used the description to draw the portrait of his benefactor."

Guan Juren said, opened the rectangular box he had been holding, and carefully took out a scroll of the portrait from it.

"Baofang, come here to help."

Guan Juren and Guan Baofang each opened the portrait carefully.

Lei Huanxi saw it, laughing and crying.

The painting is an old man with white beard.

They are already seventy-eighty.

The name is the same.

Over the past few hundred years, there are so many people who repeat the names.

Guan Juren carefully closed the portrait: "Baofang, are you surprised that why is my lineage always single?"

Guan Baofang nodded hurriedly.

Yes, let alone him, this is something that the Guan family has always been puzzled.

Guan Juren was silent for a while: "Since the death of his benefactor, the two brothers bought a house in the city, and then they remembered their promises to his benefactor. They had seen the things left by his benefactor and knew that it was very important. They didn't know who to hand it over to, and they didn't know how long they would keep it. Originally, they planned to hand it over to their children for custody after they died, but once they accidentally heard a play on the street, which changed their minds.

The play tells the story of a rich man who had a biological son and then adopted a stepson. After the rich man died, he left most of his property to his biological son and only gave him a small shop. The biological son had such a lot of money and ate, drank, gambled all day. Within a few years, his property was lost and even the house he lived in was sold.

His biological son was wandering on the streets and became a beggar. But what about the rich man's stepson? He ran that shop and worked diligently. After a few years, the store expanded and he bought a new shop. In this way, he became richer than the rich man back then. Both brothers were not educated and believed in the stories told in the play. Their ideas changed when they got home.

They were there to consider, what if their children would lose all their property after a hundred years in the future and finally see what they left behind by their benefactor and break up their ideas? It doesn’t matter if the property is lost, but if the matter of the benefactor’s transfer cannot be completed, how can they have the attitude to meet their benefactor in the future?

According to what the play says, the step-son is more terrifying than the biological son, so the two brothers decided to have one who does not get married or have children, find a very reliable child to adopt, teach him to be a good person from an early age, and then leave the things left by his benefactor to the child for safekeeping. In this way, it can ensure that the thing is passed down from generation to generation until the benefactor's task is completed."

Lei Huanxi and others didn't know what to say.

That's why one of the brothers has never been married?

But it is completely understandable to think from the perspective of others.

At that time, many poor people couldn't read a word, and all their knowledge came from hearing or listening to operas.

"The brothers decided to draw lots, who would take on the burden?" Guan Juren continued to say, "My brother was not lucky. He drew lots. The brother wanted to exchange them with him, but he just refused. Moreover, in order to worry that the descendants of the Guan family knew about their benefactor's things, the younger brother decided to leave the city and move to another place to do it.

As for the elder brother, he married and had children, and worked hard to manage. Every year, he asked someone to bring some money to his younger brother to support himself and the future child. So no matter where he went, he would tell his brother where he was. Of course, he also had a very important task, which was to find a reliable adopted son and then raise him."

"Wait." Lei Huanxi suddenly interrupted him: "I don't understand one thing in particular. My younger brother can never marry him for life, but what about his adopted son? Can everyone in your lineage never marry him for life?"

Yes, men and women are happy, this is a normal reaction for humans.

It is understandable that a generation of people is unwilling to get married, but are every generation stupid enough to not get married or have children? This doesn’t make sense.

"Maybe the two brothers were too poisoned when watching the show. They firmly believed that only adopted sons were the most credible." Guan Juren was silent for a while:

"So when they are looking for their adopted son, they have the most important condition, that is, this child must be a god-eunuch."

Lei Huanxi and the other two were silent.

OK, that's the explanation.

Tianqin.

Every generation is.

So, is Guan Juren so?

"So too." Guan Juren admitted calmly: "So there is no interest in me in the affairs of men and women."

In order to fulfill the benefactor's instructions, the price paid by the brothers was really too great.

Especially that younger brother, who has never been married in his life and is lonely.

Where is the brother?

Actually, the same is true.

When his younger brother made great sacrifices for this, he was also making contributions at home.

He must support his wandering brother.

Because my younger brother not only needs to find a child of the eunuch as his adopted son, but also needs to ensure that the child is well-behaved and educate him.

Then, it would be hard for him to have time to do other things.

"Later, after the two brothers passed away one after another, this relationship lasted for two generations. However, later, people from my brother's lineage couldn't figure out why they wanted to support the useless people from my brother's lineage? Gradually, they no longer provided financial support to people from my brother's lineage, and the two brothers began to stop interacting."

The sacrifice was too great, it was really too great.
