Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough

Fu Youtian patted Tiezhu on the shoulder and consoled him, "She hasn't gotten the hang of it yet. She doesn't know what love and marriage are." Yu Congcong, who was not far away, heard this and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Don't I know? I don't care at all. I just think you are looking for a temporary solution to the problem."

Fu Youtian returned to the house and carefully took the sign in his hand to examine it. It felt like jade in his hand, icy cold, but not cold at all. "Could it be black jade? You can tell at a glance that it is a valuable item from the material."

He murmured to himself, then sighed softly, "Oh, put it away, and keep it well." Then he turned and walked into the inner room to find a wooden box of the right size, and carefully put it in. Then he put it in the cabinet and locked it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he came out and picked up the shoes, tried them on his feet, and found that the size was just right. He couldn't help but put the shoes away, ready to wear them when the weather gets cold. "The grass cloth is so dense!" Fu Youtian praised in his heart. Then he put all these things into the cabinet.

The next morning, Xiaocao had already fed the poultry and livestock at home. Yesterday afternoon, Dazhuang hunted two rabbits and a pheasant in the mountains. He left one rabbit at home and rushed to Tiezhu's house with the pheasant and the other rabbit. When he arrived at Tiezhu's house, Third Grandma had already arrived and was cleaning the dishes and preparing the food. Tiezhu was not idle either. He was seen bending over and carefully washing the pile of green vegetables. The clear water splashed on his hands and clothes, but he was unaware.

Seeing Tiezhu busy all the time, Yu Congcong wanted to go forward to help, but Tiezhu quickly waved his hand to refuse. He then turned around and brought a small stool to Yu Congcong, and handed her a handful of peanuts, gently motioning her to sit on the stool and eat the peanuts.

The third grandmother saw this scene, with a pleased smile on her face, and said to Xiaocao: "Look at this young couple, how nice they are."

The grass smiled slightly and did not answer.

Yu Congcong lowered her voice and quietly asked Tiezhu: "Has there been any movement from Fourth Uncle in the past two days?"

Tiezhu also replied in a low voice: "Nothing happened. Do you still remember that Xiaoxi?"

Yu Congcong said softly, "It's the little girl that Wang Fu bought."

"Well, she told us that Wang Fu always went out with a hoe in the middle of the night, and always came back cursing." Tiezhu responded softly.

Yu Congcong fell into deep thought and said softly, "I'll report this situation to my father later." After Tiezhu finished washing the vegetables, he took Yu Congcong to the backyard to see Cowboy.

Yu Congcong and Tiezhu came to the cowshed. Yu Congcong was attracted by the cowboy's chubby body at first sight and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, it's so cute, with a chubby body and a pair of big watery eyes, it's so adorable."

Tiezhu smiled and said, "Yes, its furry body is like a small ball of wool, which makes people want to touch it."

Yu Congcong reached out and gently touched the cowboy, and said happily: "Its ears are so soft, and they shake from time to time, so cute!"

Tiezhu nodded and said, "Look at its four short legs bouncing back and forth as it runs. It looks very adorable."

Yu Congcong noticed the cowboy's tail and said with a smile: "Its tail is like a small broom, swaying back and forth, as if showing us its happiness."

Tiezhu looked at the cute cowboy and smiled happily. After seeing the cowboy, Tiezhu took Yu Congcong to visit every corner of his house and then went to the front yard to wait for dinner.

The guests all came over, and before I knew it, Grandpa Nan and Dad also came over.

Grandpa Nan's appearance had changed, with a full beard. Yu Congcong saw this and ran over excitedly to take a look, but for a moment he didn't dare to recognize him.

At this time, Grandpa Nan said, "Congcong, grandpa will hug you." Before he finished speaking, Nan Yi picked up Yu Congcong.

Yu Congcong first pulled Nan Yi's eyebrows, then pulled his beard, and then asked curiously: "Is this true, Grandpa, how did you do it?"

Tiezhu watched from the side and asked with a smile: "Yes, Grandpa Nan, why did you suddenly grow a beard?"

Nan Yi replied cheerfully, “Haha, I want to go out and attend Cong Cong and Tie Zhu’s engagement party, so I need to change into a new look.”

The clan leader called for dinner, and then arranged two tables for the banquet, one in the main hall and the other in the shade of the trees in the yard. The elders sat in the main hall, and the younger ones sat in the yard. Everyone finished the engagement banquet in a lively atmosphere, and the engagement process was considered complete.

After everyone left, Grandpa Nan called Tiezhu into the house.

He asked Tiezhu with a serious face: "Tiezhu, are you willing to learn martial arts?"

Tiezhu's face was full of joy and he nodded repeatedly.

Grandpa Nan continued, "Then you will start learning martial arts from me at 4 o'clock tomorrow morning. Although you are a little older, you have a good foundation. As long as you work harder, you can develop aura. Even if you can't develop aura, if you can have some skills like your uncle Dazhuang, you will have a chance to fight back and escape when you encounter danger."

"Yes, I will study hard so that I can protect Congcong and the grandfathers in the future." Tiezhu promised solemnly.

"Then please be there on time tomorrow." Grandpa Nan said as he turned to leave.

Yu Congcong quickly ran over and said, "Grandpa, I want to learn too."

Nan Yi looked at Yu Congcong with eyes full of love, and said: "Congcong's body can't stand the hardship of martial arts training."

Yu Congcong looked at his own small body, feeling very disappointed, and thought that he might be a dwarf again in this life.

She looked up at Grandpa Nan and asked, "Is there no possibility at all?" Nan Yi nodded.

Yu Congcong sighed in frustration, "Okay, I have something to report to you."

Nan Yi asked, "What's the matter?" Yu Congcong lowered her voice and whispered, "Wang Fu has been going out with a hoe every night these past few days, and comes back at dawn, cursing when he comes back."

Nan Yi nodded to show that he understood, and then left.

Half a month passed quietly as Yu Congcong gradually became familiar with the children in the village.

That day, Gou Wa came to report that Hei Zi had made some moves. Hei Zi took a gun and went to the forest. Yu Cong Cong knew that it would be useless for him to go there, so he asked Tie Zhu to tell Grandpa Nan.

In the past half month, Tiezhu's martial arts training has achieved remarkable results, and his running speed is obviously twice as fast as before. He disappeared in the blink of an eye, and Gou Wa was very envious. Yu Congcong and Gou Wa went to find Su Mingrui together.

During this half month, Yu Congcong knew that Su Mingrui was his father's junior apprentice. When he heard the news, Yu Congcong was so depressed that it was hard to describe. When he rushed to Su Mingrui's house, he was looking for clues in his father's room. When Su Mingrui saw Yu Congcong coming, he did not stop searching and asked them to search together.

Yu Congcong did not act rashly, but walked slowly back and forth in the room. This room looked ordinary, nothing special or unusual.

Yu Congcong raised her head and stared at the roof, walking back and forth slowly while observing it in detail. When she walked to the wall in the house, she suddenly found that a part of the beam was protruding a little bit. If you don't look carefully, you can hardly feel its existence.

Yu Congcong quickly called Su Mingrui to look at that place together. Su Mingrui stepped forward to take a look, and then quickly took a running start. He stepped on the wall, turned flexibly and jumped, grabbed the beam very accurately, and successfully took down the thing above.

The thing was covered with thick dust. After the dust was cleaned, a long box was clearly revealed. The color of the box was in perfect harmony with the color of the beams, making it almost indistinguishable. When the box was opened, a knife was lying inside. Yu Congcong felt very familiar. Isn't this the kind of samurai sword used by the Japanese? It is the kind that the Japanese often use to commit suicide by seppuku in movies and TV dramas.

Oh my! Now things have become serious! What is even more surprising is that there is an exquisite lady's phoenix wearing a peony hairpin hanging particularly abruptly on the handle of the knife.

At this moment, Su Jingshu stepped into the room from outside. "Mingrui", when she saw the hairpin in Su Mingrui's hand, she froze instantly, her heart was in turmoil, her face turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly. Isn't this the hairpin I lost? This is a birthday gift my brother brought back from England! How could it appear here? Countless questions surged in her mind like a tide. Then she saw the knife in Su Mingrui's hand, her pupils suddenly opened wide, full of shock, and then quickly turned into anger. She clenched her fists tightly and cursed in her heart: "Damn it, it's like this! I was actually calculated by a Japanese and gave birth to a child for him." She looked at Su Mingrui with a very complicated look, her face became paler, as if she had lost all the blood color, her eyes were full of pain and despair, because she really couldn't accept the fact she found, and couldn't accept that her child had Japanese blood flowing in his body, which made her feel humiliated and painful.

Su Jingshu couldn't bear it and fainted. Yu Congcong looked at Su Mingrui blankly, asking him what to do? Su Mingrui put down the knife, picked up his mother and put her on the bed. He turned around and put the knife back into the box and put it back to its original place. Then he ran out to find Doctor Liu, and soon found Doctor Liu. Doctor Liu felt the pulse and said, "It's okay, just a little stimulated. You will be fine when you wake up." Yu Congcong curled her lips. How could she wake up so easily and be fine?
