"I am Li Chun!"
Although he didn't know why Cheng Yaojin's expression changed so quickly, Li Chun still cupped his fists and replied.
"Mm, okay, okay…"
Hearing Li Chun's answer, Cheng Yaojin nodded repeatedly. Then, he actually circled around Li Chun as if he was admiring a rare animal, which made Li Chun's hair stand on end.
"Um, General Cheng, you…"
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's current appearance, Li Chun could not stand still.
"Hahaha, it's fine, it's fine." Cheng Yaojin stopped and laughed." I've just never seen such a handsome young man."”
"Also, since you and that brat of mine address each other as brothers, you don't have to call me General Cheng anymore. In the future, you can just call me Uncle.”
"Uncle?"
Hearing this, Li Chun was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to be so familiar with him. After all, he was just a commoner, while Cheng Yaojin was a Duke and a big shot in Li Shimin's eyes. The first time they met, he called him uncle. Li Chun didn't realize that he was also a refugee.
However, Li Chun was happy to see this happen. After all, the mission given to him by the system still required him to rely on Cheng Yaojin. At this time, it would be beneficial to have a good relationship with him.
"Greetings, uncle."
Thinking of this, Li Chun cupped his fists and bowed to Cheng Yaojin again.
"Good, good, good."
Hearing Li Chun call him uncle, Cheng Yaojin immediately beamed with joy.
"From now on, Uncle will call you a pure kid.”
"Chun…brat?"
However, after hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Li Chun was speechless.
"Um, Uncle, why don't you just call me Xiaochun?”
"Alright, I'll do as you say."
Hearing Li Chun's words, Cheng Yaojin didn't dwell on the title.
"Xiaochun, let me ask you something. What's your father's name?”
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but feel nervous when he asked this question.
However, it was no wonder. This matter was indeed too important. If it was really as he thought, then it would definitely cause a huge uproar in the imperial court.
"This, I don't know either."
However, after hearing Cheng Yaojin's question, Li Chun shook his head awkwardly.
Li Chun didn't lie to Cheng Yaojin because he really didn't know his father's name. Before he transmigrated, the original owner of his body was a retard. Before he was born, his father had already died. It could be said that he didn't have any memories of his father.
After he had transmigrated, Li Chun had never asked about his father's situation so as not to let his mother remember the sad past. Therefore, he was not very clear about his father's information.
"You don't know?"
Hearing Li Chun's answer, Cheng Yaojin frowned.
" Then your father is now…"
"He's already dead."
Li Chun said with a bitter expression," Before I was born, my father passed away.”
"What?"
"Dead…dead?"
Cheng Yaojin felt as if he had been struck by lightning and his body trembled.
"Uncle…Cheng, you…what's wrong?”
Seeing Cheng Yaojin's current appearance, Li Chun suddenly had doubts in his heart. Moreover, when he thought about Cheng Yaojin's abnormal behavior when he saw him, Li Chun's heart was even more puzzled.
"Could it be that he knows my father?"
"Probably not?"
Thinking of this possibility, Li Chun vetoed it in his heart. After all, the Black Water Village they lived in was a barren area. His father was obviously just a villager when he was alive, and Cheng Yaojin was a famous Duke. How could he know his father?
"Then do you have a portrait of your father?”
Just as Li Chun was lost in his thoughts, Cheng Yaojin stared at Li Chun and asked again.
"No, I haven't." Li Chun shook his head and said," We're just commoners. How can we afford to hire an artist?"”
Indeed, during this period, Li Shimin had just ascended the throne not long ago, and the national strength had not yet reached its peak. The famous Zhenguan rule had only just taken shape. Ordinary people did not even have enough to eat, so how could they have the money to hire a painter to make a portrait?
"No…"
Hearing Li Chun's answer, Cheng Yaojin fell silent.
"Uncle Cheng, do you know my father?"
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's expression, Li Chun couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, that's not it."
Cheng Yaojin shook his head." It's just that you're on good terms with my son. I'm just concerned about him as an uncle."”
Obviously, Cheng Yaojin didn't dare to confirm it before he figured it out.
"Oh."
Li Chun nodded slightly and didn't think too much about it. After all, the difference in status between his father and Cheng Yaojin was too great. It was normal for the two of them to not know each other.
"Is there anyone else at home besides you?”
Cheng Yaojin asked Li Chun again like an elder.
"Yes, and a mother." Li Chun answered without any doubt.
" There's another mother…"
"That's good!"
After hearing Li Chun's answer, Cheng Yaojin's mind suddenly became active.
As long as Li Chun's mother was here, he would definitely be able to investigate thoroughly.
"Um, Dad, Xiaochun just got here, so don't ask so many questions.”Cheng Chumo, who had been ignored, interrupted,"Shouldn't we entertain them well?"”
"That's true." Hearing Cheng Chumo's words, Cheng Yaojin surprisingly didn't reprimand him. Instead, he laughed." Let your mother cook a few good dishes tonight. I want to have a good drink with Xiaochun."”
"Mother will cook personally?"
Hearing this, Cheng Chumo's eyes suddenly lit up." I haven't eaten the dishes that I've cooked in a long time."”
Indeed, they were in the Lu Public House. The servants had already prepared their daily necessities for them. Why would Cheng Chumo's mother need to do anything? Now that he heard that his mother was going to cook personally, how could Cheng Chumo not be excited? His mother was a good cook, and he had missed her for a long time.
"I've really taken advantage of Xiaochun.”
Then, he chuckled and put his arm around Li Chun's shoulder.
"Thank you, Uncle."
Li Chun cupped his fists and bowed to Cheng Yaojin.
"Hahaha…Let's get drunk tonight.”
Cheng Yaojin laughed." But before that…"
"I heard from this brat that you killed a large insect with a single punch.”Then, he stared at Li Chun and said," Why don't you…show Uncle?”
