"Uncle Lin, you're back." Zhu Xiong smiled as he looked at the man before him.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
"I heard from them that something happened to you? Is it related to Jin 'er?" Uncle Lin looked at Zhu Xiong worriedly.
If Zhu Xiong had lived with his grandmother for six years, then Uncle Lin was the last relative his grandmother had left for him. He was the younger brother his grandmother had taken in. He was once a homeless person and was also the person who cared about him the most other than his grandmother when he was young.
After his grandmother passed away, Zhu Xiong took over the small business of the tavern and brewed wine every day. Uncle Lin took care of everything for Zhu Xiong, buying food and all kinds of utensils.
These few days, Uncle Lin went out to buy some things needed to make wine.
"I'm fine."
"Jin 'er was taken away by his family.”Zhu Xiong said calmly.
After a day and a night, Zhu Xiong thought it through. He did not want Uncle Lin to worry anymore.
If Uncle Lin knew Jin 'er's identity and how the Xu family had humiliated him, he would be even more worried.
"So it's about this. Sigh, I know that you have a deep relationship with Jin 'er, but it's a good thing that her family has come. I've seen the relationship between you and Jin' er these two years. Don't worry, Young Master. When Jin 'er has settled down and sent a letter, I'll go and propose marriage to Young Master so that she will never leave you.”Uncle Lin said with a smile.
After knowing that Jin 'er had been taken away, Uncle Lin seemed to understand why his young master was so sad.
"Uncle Lin, you just came back.”
"I'm going to Grandmother's grave."
Zhu Xiong said to Uncle Lin before turning around and walking out.
"Sigh, Young Master is a person who values relationships. After spending two years with Jin 'er, it's inevitable that he can't bear to part with her.”Uncle Lin sighed. However, when he glanced at the pile of boxes and a few carriages in the side room, he said,"What are these?"
Then, he walked over.
Outside the town, on a small mountain.
Zhu Xiong knelt in front of a lone grave.
There was only a wooden tablet on this lonely grave," Grandmother Ma's grave, Sun Zhu Xiong.”
Zhu Xiong stared at the wooden tablet and kneeled in front of the grave. He muttered to himself or said to his grandmother,"Grandmother, your grandson has made a decision. I want to join the army.”
"Perhaps this goes against what you told me before you died. You only want me to live my life in this town with a stable wife. But now, I have no choice.”
"Grandmother, did you know?"
"After you left, I saved a girl. Her name is Xu Miaojin. She has been by my side for the past two years, and we have developed a friendship.”
"However, this grandson is thinking too much. Jin 'er is not a girl from an ordinary family. She came from the descendant of the founding duke. Yesterday, her family brought her back. Moreover, her family humiliated me in every way and did not allow me to see Jin' er again.”
"However, I'm already husband and wife with Jin 'er. If I give up on her, what's the difference between me and a beast?”
"My current status is insignificant. I'm just a merchant, the lowest merchant in the world. I can't go into politics or get an official position. Even if I have a lot of wealth, I'm destined to not be taken seriously by the high and mighty High Duke's Public House. Now, I only have one way to change my identity and change my merchant identity.”
"That is to join the army. Only by doing so can I have a chance to marry Jin 'er.”
"So…Grandmother, please forgive me.”
"If I fail, I'll bury my corpse beside Grandmother and serve Grandmother forever to repay Grandmother's kindness in raising me. If I succeed, I'll bring Jin 'er to your grave to kowtow.”
"Grandmother's spirit in heaven, please protect your grandson.”
After saying that.
Zhu Xiong kowtowed three times towards his grandmother's grave. His eyes were filled with determination and guilt towards his grandmother.
Actually…
Zhu Xiong wasn't completely a person of this era.
His soul came from an era more than 1,000 years later. In this world, Zhu Xiong was reborn into his eight-year-old self. After he regained consciousness, he was still in the midst of fleeing from famine. There were only his grandmother and Uncle Lin by his side. His grandmother took him from the south to the north to escape, and finally settled down in a small town in Beiping.
As for the past eight years, Zhu Xiong had no memory at all. It was as if he had been erased. It was not until he was reborn that he became a brand new person.
"System."
"Accept the mission."
"I want to join the army."
After kowtowing three times, Zhu Xiong stood up straight with a determined expression and muttered.
In the next moment.
A notification sounded in Zhu Xiong's ears.
"The host has accepted the novice mission to join the army. The reward is a digitized physique. You can kill enemies to obtain experience points to level up and become stronger.”
" Release the mission. Enter the military camp and become a soldier of the Ming army. After completing it, activate the system upgrade template. Martial arts, spells..." An electronic notification sounded in Zhu Xiong's ear.
