Zhang Liao protected Xu Gai and galloped on the horse for two laps, and then rode the horse and sent Xu Gai home.

After Xu Huang's parents invited each other, Zhang Liao stayed to have a regular meal. Zhang Liao tore off the chicken legs and handed them to Xu Gai, and instructed: "It is the time for children to grow up. Eating more meat is a good thing."

Xu Gai seemed extremely restrained due to the warning from his elders' eyes, but under Zhang Liao's deliberate protection and concern, Xu Huang's parents' concerns were dispelled and Zhang Liao could only let Zhang Liao get along with Xu Gai. Every time Xu Gai, who was childless, said a word about Xu Huang's past, the old couple's heart was tightly tense, for fear that their grandson would be ignorant and say something unfavorable to their son, which would affect their son's future.

Fortunately, Zhang Liao did not have any dissatisfaction. Xu Gai was quite sensible and answered Zhang Liao's inquiry with a conscientious answer, which made the old couple completely relieved.

When Zhang Liao said goodbye, Xu Gai was reluctant to leave. Under Zhang Liao's care, he satisfied his appetite. He had never eaten a meal of meat in a month, but now he has eaten a full meal.

Xu's father held the chicken bone in his hand and said with emotion: "That is a master who understands the sufferings of the world. Look, the flesh on the chicken ribs was eaten completely, and the bones were chewed into the belly. The bone marrow inside the bones was chewed into the belly."

Xu's father praised Zhang Liao, then glared at Xu Gai again and scolded: "It's not like you, a prodigal son, that the meat on the chicken legs is not clean, so it's so wasteful."

"I won't waste it. I'll eat the remaining bones of Gai'er again, and I will definitely not waste food." Xu Huang's wife looked at Xu Gai with drowsiness and said respectfully: "Father, mother, that distinguished guest didn't eat a few pieces of chicken, so he only picked up a few pieces of meatless bones. There was still about a bowl of chicken left, so you can eat it."

"Save it for our grandson, it is a waste to eat it." Xu's mother picked up the pottery bowl containing wild vegetables and found that there was no soup left in it. She sighed infinitely: "It was a noble guest, and there was no airs of superiors, and there was no shortcoming of the meat eater. Her grandson despised the bitterness of the weeds and was difficult to swallow. The guests ate it happily, and there was no soup left without oil."

Xu Huang's wife said regretfully: "It's a pity that the old hen keeps the eggs. There is only one old hen in the house. If the cover is behind, they will ask to eat chickens, and they will take the food to the neighbor's house to change chickens."

"The hair is long and the knowledge is short. Don't mention another word if you do this." Xu's father scolded his daughter-in-law and said, "Didn't you see the guests leaving ten pieces of Shu brocade before leaving? That's a real good thing, priceless than an old hen."

Seeing that his mother was scolded by her grandfather, Xu Gai lowered her head and did not dare to refute a word. He grabbed a piece of meat and handed it over, and said in a slight voice: "Grandfather, eat meat."

"My family is sensible." The wrinkles on Xu's father's face were all over his face.

When Xu Gai handed another piece of meat to his grandmother, he also received his grandmother's praise. Xu Gai's lively eyes secretly winked at the scolding mother.

Zhang Liao had a clear understanding of Xu Huang's traces. He was deliberately doing it because he did not see Xu Huang. He had to take care of Xu Gongming's thoughts and wanted to express his attention to Xu Huang to the fullest.

This is just a look. He is not in a hurry to see Xu Huang quickly. Anyway, he has time, so Xu Huang is in front of him and can't run away.

Zhang Liao just revealed to Xu Huang's parents that the prefect of Xihe wanted to recruit Xu Huang as an official, but did not tell him that he was the prefect of Xihe. Therefore, in the eyes of Xu Huang's parents, he was a superior and did not know his specific official position.

According to Xu Huang's historical trajectory, he will serve under Yang Feng's command. Yang Feng was just a general of the Yellow Turban Army who rose up in Baibo Valley. Zhang Liao believed very deeply that as long as he made a fortune, he would be able to take Xu Huang under his command and turn Yang Feng's cavalry commander into his own general in advance.

He entered the military camp with great enthusiasm and eager expectations. He was very timid when he learned that the recruitment was going smoothly in full swing.

With the help of Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong, Zhang Liao's recruitment plan did not encounter any obstacles. Wang Qian and Gao Shun, who were personally responsible for recruitment, improved the recruitment conditions and regarded warriors who were proficient in shooting skills and fighting skills as their preferred targets.

On the third day, Zhang Liao arrived as scheduled to visit Xu Huang's house again.

This time, he had prepared a pretty rich wine and meat. He thought that Xu Huang should be back home and waiting for him. According to the news that his subordinates inquired, Xu Huang had resigned as a minor official in the county, thus disrupting his idea of ​​letting him take care of Xu Gongming three times while Xu Huang was not at home.

"Where is Xu Huang?" Zhang Liao stood in front of Xu's father and asked respectfully.

What surprised him was that except for Xu's father, he did not see any other relatives of Xu Huang.

This is unreasonable. Judging from his relationship with Xu Huang's family, it is impossible to receive such treatment. In addition, Xu Huang's parents attach great importance to the fact that their son is valued by a high-ranking official and will be recruited. There is no reason not to pay attention to it.

Even if the female family members did not show up, Xu Gai, who was deeply cared for by Zhang Liao, was missing, which made Zhang Liao confused.

"Please forgive me for being a distinguished guest. The dog at home has never returned home." Xu's father's old face showed a vague anxiety and cramping.

"Not here?" Zhang Liao's heart moved slightly, and Xu's father's expression changed even more and more. The occurrence of such a change made him confused.

If you don’t have any tension in your heart, it’s a fake. Since Xu Huang is right in front of you, how could he let Xu Huang go without paying attention?

He didn't want to happen to himself when he passed by.

Zhang Liao calmed down and asked calmly: "Dare you dare to ask the old man, can you tell me about Xu Huang's news?"

"I don't know." Xu's father became more and more anxious, fearing that his son would miss the opportunity to be recruited by the prefect of Xihe, and complained: "After the distinguished guest left, I ordered the juniors in the village to call the juniors home, but the news I got was that the son had resigned as a minor official in the county. According to the son's colleagues, the son did not inform others where the son went after he resigned."

Zhang Liao felt disappointed and said helplessly: "I am Zhang Liao, the prefect of Xihe. I heard that Xu Huang was named Wu Yong, so I came to visit him specially. I never thought I could not meet with the hero. It was a pity."

"What?" Xu's father was shocked, and then his body softened and knelt on the ground.

The biggest official he had ever seen in his life was the head of the pavilion. He never thought that the handsome man in front of him was the prefect who held the seal of a county alone. How could such a noble person be so respectful to him, an old man, be shocked?

"I'm welcome to you quickly. The reason why I didn't tell you about my identity the last time was that I was afraid that such a thing would happen. I'm so kind to you, don't let me get rid of the younger generation." Zhang Liao hurriedly helped Xu's father up.

The flattered father Xu was extremely nervous. He promised confidently: "Please rest assured that as long as I find out about the dog son, even if I break his legs, I will send the dog son to Zhang Junzhu's command to serve."

Zhang Liao smiled slightly before saying goodbye.

He was afraid that his actions of handing over Xu Huang's hands would not be heard from Xu Huang's ears.

I was also worried that Xu Huang would really change to others and could only reveal his identity and convey his thoughts of paying attention to Xu Huang into Xu Huang's ears through Xu's father's mouth.
