In fact, Chen Zhu and Li Shang still have a certain similarity in one respect, at least their tempers are the type of hitting the south wall and stabbing to the end and never turning back.

He Ying knew her son too well, she was so stubborn, she would never get the money back, thinking of the three catties of meat, her heart was bleeding, so she stared at Chen Zhu fiercely , Pointing to the tip of his nose and cursing: "Do you think our family is some kind of rich family who has spare money to make you lose? I want to supplement your sister, and I have to pay for your grandfather. Is it easy for me? I, you tell me yourself!" , Which one of your food and clothing did I not pick out with a little bit of frugality? Now that the wings are hard and the elbows are turning outward, I won’t say anything else today. I’ll tell you Chen Zhu, if you If you don't bring the money, you will never come back, you little white-eyed wolf, and I will pretend that I never gave birth to your son!"

"Mother..." Chen Zhu saw that He Ying was really angry, and he was worried and wanted to step forward, "I just want to learn Kung Fu."

"I don't have a son like you!" He Ying turned her head away from him, she couldn't understand, they just learned to work in the fields as farmers, what's the use of learning that thing?

Chen Zhu lowered his head, and his voice was muffled, but he was extremely firm, "Mother, I want to learn kung fu, I want to join the army, and I want to be a high official to fight for mother's order."

As soon as these words were said, it seemed like a fairy tale, but it succeeded in making Li Shang's eyes flash a little bit of interest, Bai Ran glanced straight at it, and knew it in his heart.

"Don't talk nonsense!" He Ying's voice was a little choked up. Although she was very angry, it was the flesh that fell from her body after all. Speaking such big words, no matter whether it was true or not, made her, a mother, feel a sense of pride and emotion. She wished she could Let everyone know that, seeing how promising her son is, he still wants to fight for her.

But although the words sound good, but their family is just an ordinary farmer's family, and it's enough to take care of these few acres of land for a lifetime and live in peace. How can I really watch my son go to the battlefield to fight, and she immediately let go, " I don't need you to be a high official or anything, as long as you can be less angry with me."

Bai Ran saw that it was almost done, so he walked over and stuffed the money back into Chen Zhu's hands, "Your family's situation is not very good, please be more considerate of your mother, and treat those things as I bought them. As for other things, I'll let you Mother agrees." He used cleverness when he gave the money, and before Chen Zhu could react, he had already stuffed the money into Chen Zhu's palm, and then turned around and returned to Li Shang's side.

Li Shang knew that it was time to appear on stage by himself at this time, so he said to Chen Zhu: "If you want to practice martial arts and become an official, you must understand the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, and want to worship me as your master? Okay, let your mother nod first." After finishing speaking, he So he took Bai Ran back to the house to rest. His wife had been standing for so long over this matter, what if she was tired? As for whether Chen Zhu could make his mother nod, that was his business.

"You don't want me to agree!" He Ying took the first step to express her attitude, glared at Chen Zhu angrily, snatched the money, turned around and left, no matter what she was a mother, she couldn't bear to let her son take that risk, although The country has not fought a war in the past hundred years, but who knows if there will be one in the future, what if this person goes to the battlefield and cannot come back? What if the old Chen family is just such a kid and still expects him to carry on the family.

"Mother!" Chen Zhu's tears began to roll around his eyes again, and he was reluctant to look at the gate of Bai Ran's house. Remembering Li Shang's words, he finally followed He Ying back to his home, but stopped when he entered the courtyard. He stopped, gritted his teeth, stepped back a few steps and knelt down as determined.

"Get up!" He Ying became anxious when she saw it. Her house is not far from the center of the village. People come and go, so kneeling here is nothing.

Chen Zhu lowered his head and said firmly, "I won't get up if I don't agree."

He Ying's eyes were also red, and the anger that had just subsided came back again, "Okay, you can be patient, if you want to kneel, you can kneel!" She slammed the door hard, and when she looked up, she happened to see her man standing Facing the door in a daze in the courtyard, he finally couldn't help crying, "Look at your good son, this is trying to kill me!"

-

No matter how noisy the old Chen's house was, Bai Ran had just finished preparing lunch here, and he was planning to send it to Li Shang, but now that he's back, he might as well finish eating before going to the ground.

Li Shang washed his hands, picked up the bowl and ate while asking, "Xiao Ran, what do you think about Chen Zhu?"

"It's okay to look at it. It's you who recruited apprentices, not me. But I think Chen Zhu's kid is pretty good except that his brain is a bit too much. If he cultivates it well, he might be able to make a way out." Apart from the bad thing about meeting Ke Guihua last time, Bai Ran still has a high opinion of Chen Zhu.

Li Shang nodded his head to agree with Bai Ran's words. If this Chen Zhu can really make his mother nod, then it shouldn't be wrong to accept it, "Let's not talk about him. I'm afraid the village is going to be uneasy recently. You are pregnant. , don’t go out these days, leave everything outside to me.”

"Yeah." Bai Ran agreed, he understood what Li Shang meant, no one in Taoxi Village got sick for more than ten days, and now the big guys are obviously getting careless, if they were transferred to other villages, who would dare to find someone else's house so blatantly, Don't be afraid of getting sick.

Li Shang took a piece of meat and peeled off the fat, and put the lean meat in Bai Ran's bowl, "Be patient, my master will be here in a few days. This plague is nothing to him. I sent a letter, and it’s time to send someone over in a few days.”

Bai Ran curled her lips, "I'm fine, but I don't know what's going on in the town. Chunzi hasn't come back. He's a pharmacy, so I'm afraid he may have come into contact with a lot of patients."

Li Shang comforted: "I will find out when my cousin comes to deliver the letter next time. Don't worry, there has been no plague before. Ji Ren Tang has been open for so long and even if it can't be cured, it has its own set of preventive measures. Something will happen."

Although the plague is spreading very fast, the fatality rate is not high. Even if Wang Chun is really caught, as long as he can be dragged back, it will not be a big problem. "The next time the boss lady comes over, I'll go to the town to have a look."

"No!" Li Shang frowned and refused, and then tried his best to soften his voice, "You are not alone now, even if you are protected by that fairy art, you must be careful. When my cousin comes over, I will follow her."

Bai Ran didn't say anything, just lowered his head and ate silently.

After dinner, Li Shang accompanied Bai Ran for a walk in the yard. He had almost done the field work in the morning, so it's okay if he doesn't go in the afternoon.

Around Shen Shi, someone knocked on the door of their house again. Li Shang helped Bai Ran into the house. He went out and opened the door to see that it was Du Lanhua who came with her precious son Wang Hu.

Wang Hu has just turned eight years old this year, and he has a thick head and a thick head. As soon as he entered the room, he shouted: "Brother Bai, hello Uncle Li!"

In fact, if you really want to count ages, Bai Ran is eighteen this year, and Li Shang is less than 27. The age gap between the two is not too small. Usually Li Shang deliberately ignores this issue, but now that a child mentions it, his face immediately turns dark Like the bottom of a pot.

Du Lanhua came here to ask for something, and Wang Hu's words didn't offend people first. She pretended to slap Wang Hu's butt hard a few times, and reprimanded: "You child, why are you talking nonsense!"

How could Wang Hu understand her mother's meaning at such a young age, tears of grievance rolled around his eyes, and could come down at any time.

"Tong Yan Wuji." Bai Ran was amused by the uncle's voice, pulled Wang Hu and patted him on the head as a reward, and gave him a candy ball that he bought a long time ago, "Huzi don't cry, you li Uncle treats you to sweets."

"Thank you Uncle Li, thank you Brother Bai." After all, Wang Hu was a child, and immediately stopped crying when he saw the sugar, and stuffed the words into his mouth, his cheeks bulging.

It is best for the child to answer correctly, and it will be coaxed by giving some snacks. Bai Ran looked at Du Lanhua again, although he had already guessed what this person was doing here, but he still asked: "Big sister is here at this time, what's the matter?" ?”

Du Lanhua sat on the edge of the kang in a gossip posture, and said with a smile: "It's nothing wrong, it's just that I've been bored at home for so many days, and now I'm all right, so I'll come out to hang out with you, by the way, Just now when I came back from the ground, I saw Chen Zhu kneeling in front of their house, surrounded by a circle of people, no one tried to persuade him, everyone was saying that Chen Zhu wanted to ask your Bo En to be his master to learn how to read and write, He Ying If you don’t agree, you made such a fuss. If you want me to say that He Ying really doesn’t know what’s good and what’s wrong, the child has to learn something while he’s young. If it’s me, don’t talk about a piece of meat, even if it’s ten yuan, I’ll take it out. , worth it."

Bai Ran ignored Du Lanhua's self-proclaimed sentence, turned his head and looked at Li Shang with a little surprise, he didn't expect Chen Zhu to think of such a simple and rude method, if He Ying was more cruel, her legs would probably have to kneel down.

Li Shang twisted Bairan's fingertips indifferently, "It's nothing serious at all, don't worry, Chen Zhu can get through it."

"This..." Seeing that her words didn't have the expected effect, Du Lanhua felt a little uncomfortable. After interrupting the sweetness of the two at the right time, she simply made the matter clear, "Bai Geer, Boen, the neighbors in our village I can’t turn corners when I speak. Since ancient times, the scholars from our eight villages in ten miles can be counted on their ten fingers. It is estimated that Bo En is the only one who can read and know kung fu. The apprentices who teach one is to teach, and two are also. Hey, look at my Huzi, he is well-behaved and sensible, and he is also strong, and he is guaranteed not to be much worse than Chen Zhu, see, can you take him too?"

What Du Lanhua didn't say was that she had been thinking about letting Li Shang be her Huzi's husband as early as the day when the land was signed. She had been staring at Chen Zhu for so long and finally caught such an opportunity, how could she miss it.

Bai Ran was a little unhappy. Li Shang was already very tired after going to the field. He naturally supported bringing an apprentice, but it seemed a bit reluctant to add one more.

Li Shang thought for a moment, and said, "Huzi is different from Chen Zhu. Chen Zhu wanted to join the army wholeheartedly, so he decided to practice martial arts with me. As for Huzi... let my wife teach him how to read."

"Brother Bai can read and write?" Du Lanhua asked suspiciously, she knew a lot about the old Bai's family, and the old lady Bai would let Bai Ran go to a private school?

"I've been teaching him." Li Shang picked up the calligraphy that Bai Ran had practiced recently and handed it to Du Lanhua.

Bai Ran's handwriting has been practiced for so many days, although it is still not as beautiful as Li Shang's handwriting, but it is still neat and neat, so there is no big problem in teaching a child.

Li Shang said this because he wanted to find something for Bai Ran to do, so as not to be bored at home all day.

Du Lanhua looked at the words on the paper, and couldn't believe it, but as long as she can read, who can teach? Fame or something, as long as you can read a few words and go out and do something to avoid being deceived, how much do you think Shu Xiu?"

Before Bai Ran could speak, Li Shang answered first: "This matter will not start until after the plague is over, Shu Xiu will talk about it then."

"Success, then I'll go back and wait for your news, Huzi, talk." Du Lanhua stopped Wang Hu who was eating happily.

Wang Hu shook his head, because of the sugar in his mouth, he couldn't speak clearly, "Bye bye Brother Bai, bye Uncle Li!"

"Goodbye, take some more and go back and eat slowly." Bai Ran took a few more pieces and stuffed them into Wang Hu's hands. People fell down.

Bai Ran grabbed a candy ball and stuffed it into Li Shang's mouth, and said cheerfully, "Uncle, this is a good job, I'll reward you."

Li Shang rubbed his nose against the side of his face dissatisfied, "Am I that old?"

Bai Ran recalled all kinds of envy and jealousy he had towards Li Shang's face on the first night he came to this world, so angry and resentful that he didn't allow people to get addicted to it?

He picked Li Shang's chin viciously with his hands, and tasted it, "It's okay, I can watch it soon."

Li Shang seemed to have seen through his thoughts, smiled wickedly, and flexibly stretched his fingers towards the opponent's belt...

It's hard to tell who was the unlucky one in the end, anyway, even if Li Shang paid more attention to restraint, Bai Ran still couldn't get up from the kang on time the next day, and slept until dawn.

At about dusk, Chen Zhu came limping, and as soon as he entered the door and saw Li Shang, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said excitedly, "Master, my mother promised me."

Li Shang accepted his gift, nodded slightly satisfied, and directly assigned the first task, "Take care of your legs, start from Yinshi in three days, run around the whole village first, and then come to find me."

"Hey!" Chen Zhu scratched his head, smirked and wanted to stand up, but fell back again with all his strength. Since he knelt directly at noon yesterday, his physical strength was almost exhausted.

Bai Ran had just finished cooking, and when he came out of the kitchen to see the two of them, he said, "You two, stop kneeling back and forth, Li Shang, take someone to the house to apply some medicine first, and then come over to eat."

"Master!" Chen Zhu couldn't get up, so he simply shifted his position, facing Bai Ran's direction, his anger sank in his dantian, and he let out a loud roar, which not only shocked Bai Ran, but even Li Shang.

"What are you kidding about!" Li Shang shot Chen Zhu directly on the head, dragged him into the room, took out a jar of ointment and threw it over for him to apply himself, and then ran to the kitchen to see his wife.
