A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 5 He Wants to Call His Name

Chen Xiaozheng was worried that he didn't know the way in the village, so he didn't let the three bolts of cattle go, and wanted to take him home.He tied the big cow to a tree, and the two calves did not run around, but obediently followed their mother to graze with their heads down.

When Sanshuan met the most promising cousin in the whole family, his face flushed with joy.Danced and danced along the way, before Chen Xiao could ask, he poured out everything he knew.

It turned out that the naive baby couldn't come back several times a year because he traveled all over the country with the caravan.When I come back occasionally, I will also send some money.At this time, Sanshuan's family will have a better life.So in the boy's heart, he admired and worshiped this cousin very much.

The people from the caravan specially sent a message before, informing them that their family was seriously injured and was staying in the county to recuperate.The whole family was very sad and worried, but the life at home was so tight that they couldn't even afford the travel expenses, so they didn't go to visit.

It wasn't until three months ago that Zhou Wushi went to visit again, and saw that Hanwa was already well, and found a decent new job.Only then did he come over confidently, and told his uncle's family who had been worried about him.

As for Master Zhou's words, Hanwa's brain was damaged due to the high fever for a long time, and she couldn't remember the past.The uncle and aunt didn't care too much.If people are alive, able to support themselves, and live a life, they are worthy of their deceased brothers and sisters-in-law.

Because Sanshuan is still young, he can't understand what it's like to be in a state of being burned out and forgetting everything about the past.He was worried, worried that this cousin would become like the stupid son of the village east.Every day he only knows how to smirk and drool, and is teased by the bad boys in the village, and he doesn't know how to resist at all.

Once Sanshuan saw that those bad boys gave him cow dung and told him it was chestnut rice cake, and they stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.Cow dung is so smelly, even if Sanshuan has never seen chestnut rice cakes before, he knows that they are completely different.If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and went up to destroy it, that fool would have eaten it!

Thinking of his cousin turning into a fool, Sanshuan was so worried that he couldn't sleep well.He thought, since he is the eldest boy in the family, he should take on the responsibility of the eldest son at this time.In the future, if I have a bite to eat, I will never be hungry to my cousin.He must never be allowed to go to the street and fall to the point where he is tricked into eating cow dung.

The little boy's mind is full of twists and turns, and the adults who are busy earning money to support their families naturally don't notice his troubles.He is only 11 years old, far from the age to be the breadwinner of the family.So no one would tell him that he was completely useless.

Therefore, when he saw his cousin who was intact and in good spirits appearing suddenly, he was not to mention how happy he was.

Because of her childhood experience, Chen Xiao was very kind to this kind of young, hard-working, and sensible child.Sanshuan's troubles seemed like a joke to adults, but he thanked the boy earnestly.Thank you for his responsibility and kindness.

Sanshuan's face became darker and redder by Chen Ling's seriousness.He thought dazedly, after his cousin became thinner, he became much prettier than before.What's more, it's different when he goes to work in the county town, and his speech becomes very refined and orderly, just like the young master of the richest family in the village.Suddenly, the boy admired his cousin even more.

Sanshuan took Chen Ling for a long walk, passing through half the village.Come to a farmyard surrounded by mud walls at the edge of the village.

Sanshuan said: "Brother Hanwa, you go in first. My father comes back after work at night, and only my mother and sister are at home. You must be tired from the journey, so go rest first. I have to go back to the mountains to watch the cows. "

Chen Xiao entered the farmyard, and there were three mud houses inside, namely the main room and the left and right wing rooms.The yard is big, but it's messy.There is a chicken coop with three chickens.Chen Xiao looked around, and found that only the main room and the left wing could accommodate people, and the right wing was half for the kitchen and half for sundries.

Probably hearing her son's voice, a woman with messy hair and a dark patterned headscarf came out.Seeing Chen Ling, she was taken aback.The person in front of him is said to be a stranger, but there is a feeling of deja vu.Chen Xiao took the initiative to walk over and saluted the other side: "Auntie, right? I'm a silly boy."

Auntie was like Sanshuan, her eyes were full of disbelief, and she looked at it two or three times from beginning to end before she dared to say: "You are really a fool..." Then she looked at Chen Xiao who was standing in front of her smiling, she couldn't understand why. When it was hot, he said in a hurry: "Hurry up and get in the house, come in and sit down!"

Aunt turned around and entered the door of the main room. Chen Xiao carried her luggage up two steps and walked into the main room.This house is similar to the houses he saw in the countryside in his previous life.It is also a main room as soon as you enter the door, which is used for entertaining guests and eating.On both sides are two suites, which live separately.The only difference is probably that the house is smaller and shorter, which makes people feel a little cramped.

My aunt entered the side with the door curtain, and the other side didn't even have a door curtain, only a straw curtain.Chen Ling guessed that the one with the cloth curtain was his uncle's and aunt's bedroom. As for the one with the straw curtain, because he couldn't see it, he didn't know who lived there.

Chen Ling put his luggage on the old table and looked down at the chair with all legs before he dared to sit down.It was definitely not because he was careless, he had been to a poorer family than this, and he did not throw away the three chair legs left. Instead, he tied a piece of wood and continued to use it.

My aunt came out again, her hair combed neatly, and her scarf replaced with a brighter one.She courteously said to Chen Ling: "Are you tired from the journey? Do you want to go to the house and lie down first?"

Chen Xiao said politely: "I'm not tired, the ox cart is very stable."

My aunt said "Oh" and said, "Your uncle is working at the employer's house right now. You wait at home and I'll call him back." After speaking, she turned around and wanted to leave.

Chen Xiao quickly stood up: "Don't call, it's only half a day's work, it's not bad for a while. We are all a family, why are you so polite?" He opened the package on the table, "Don't worry, auntie, I brought it from the county. The gift is back. Do you like it?"

It wasn't that Auntie Hanwa wanted to be polite, but that the strangeness on Chen Xiao's body was so obvious after she came in that she became cautious unconsciously.After hearing Chen Xiao's greeting, my aunt came over and sat down at the table.

Usually, when Han Wa came back, he would just give money, and this was the first time he brought special things.My aunt only felt novelty when she saw the snacks, but she was not only novelty when she saw the muslin, she was completely happy.

The only daughter is now 14 years old and is preparing for marriage, and she also does some embroidery on weekdays.The older Sanshuan started to herd cattle for his master, and the youngest was favored, but he also learned to go up the mountain to collect firewood with the older children.With the hard work of the whole family, the money to buy the house is finally almost paid off.

Just because of this foreign debt, it is not easy to add a new coat.It has always been that the big ones cannot be worn by the small ones, and the seams are mended.

Touching and touching the muslin with her hands, the aunt murmured: "Silly boy, you have a heart, you have a heart."

Chen Xiao has black lines all over his head, and there is such a more rustic name for Han Wa's nickname.Seeing that the woman was only looking at the fine cloth, he coughed lightly and said, "Auntie, I have one thing to do when I come back this time, which is to get famous."

My aunt looked up at him unexpectedly, a little at a loss: "Is it going to be a big name now? Isn't it a bit early?"

Going to daimyo is a unique phenomenon in the countryside of this world.

Everyone here has a name dish from birth.This is a small brand of unknown metal material, only the size of a thumb.You can carry it with you on weekdays or keep it at home.However, if you travel far, you must carry this name plate with you, because it is a kind of certificate equivalent to an ID card.

The small plate of the name plate has the owner's name, year of birth, physical characteristics, and residential address written on it.Except that there is a copy of this famous disc in the hands of the holder, and another copy is stored in the place where he settled down.This is how the world manages household registration.

When a person is young, his appearance is very different from when he grows up.Therefore, the appearance characteristics on the famous disc are not static, and must be modified every time.Updating the information on the name plate is not free, and a certain fee must be paid.For poor families, this is an extra expense, so many people who have no money are unwilling to replace the famous discs.

Of course, if these people insist on not changing, no one will force them to change.It's just that these people must not encounter the strict investigation of famous discs.Otherwise, the description on the name plate does not match the person, and the name plate will not only be turned over, but the person will also be imprisoned by the inspecting party.It will not be released until the identity of the holder is investigated.

Those who used to travel around with caravans like a naive baby must pay attention to updating their name discs to avoid such troubles.

The age group that changes greatly is generally replaced at an integer age such as ten or 20 years old.After adulthood, the change is not big, and the interval can be longer, and it can be replaced every 20 or 30 years.

After Chen Xiao learned about this system for the first time, she felt that it was similar to replacing an ID card when it expired.It's just that this is voluntary, and the ID card must be replaced after it expires.

There are many families like Han Wa who don't have knowledgeable people and can't afford to hire a famous gentleman.It is often a nickname given at birth, and it is first on the famous disc.While waiting for the child to grow up, he is slowly getting a name.I can't think of a good name, and I will live my whole life with a name full of local flavors such as Gouwa and Skunk.

I came up with a good name, and when I changed the name disc at the integer age of ten or 20, I changed the name on it.This is called the upper name.

Chen Xiao rushed back this time, in addition to wanting to see what the people of Xianmen are like with his own eyes, another important reason is to change the name on the name plate.

Hanwa's family is also surnamed Chen, and he can call his own name back by changing the "Hanwa" on the name plate to "Xiao".
