Chapter 1877: Transformed Into Niu Shun

Although I have the identity of Niu Shun, I have also heard some news.

But after all, I am not familiar with most of the situation in Niulan Village, so it is best to say less, do less, and observe more.

Carrying firewood down the mountain, many villagers along the way greeted him. Jia Zhengjin did not know their specific identities, so he vaguely agreed and went straight to Niu Shun's house.

When he arrived at Niu Shun's house, he found that it was just a simple thatched house, with firewood piled inside and outside, messy.

He didn't care about these. After putting down the firewood, he sat at the door and looked around, and finally determined the location of Niu Xi's house.

Niu Xi was obviously not at home, and it was estimated that he was hanging out with his friends outside.

Niu Bao, who was sick in the house, lay on the bed and kept coughing, and sighed from time to time.

How to get close to Niu Xi and find an opportunity to guide him?

After thinking about it, since he is now a woodcutter, he should make good use of this identity.

It doesn't matter if he is not familiar with other people in the village. He can get information from the real Niu Shun through Nuwa.

Niu Shun is the kind of person who is quite honest. If he is given a little starvation, he will cooperate obediently.

"Shunzi, are you done so early today? Didn't you rest after the sun went down in the past?" Just as he was thinking, a villager passed by and saw him sitting at the door instead of chopping wood, so he asked curiously.

This villager was probably in her forties, a middle-aged woman.

Jia Zhengjin didn't know her. After all, the information was not complete, and he didn't know how to address her, so he casually responded: "I have something to do, so I'll stop for today."

"What can you do? Are you thinking about a girl?" The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "Do you want me to be a matchmaker for you? But I'm not saying anything about you. At least buy a house first, otherwise who would be willing to be with you?"

"I'll build a house tomorrow." Jia Zhengjin heard the teasing in her tone, so he replied.

"Hey! Are you going to build another thatched house to store firewood?"

Jia Zhengjin thought to himself that this woman was too talkative, right? He simply rolled his eyes and ignored her.

The middle-aged woman teased him a few more times, twisted her hips and disappeared in front of him.

In the end, he still didn't figure out what the woman's name was.

Regardless of all this, after sitting at the door and thinking for a while, Jia Zhengjin turned around, carried a bundle of firewood, and walked directly to the door of Niu Xi's house.

"Cough cough cough..." Niu Xi's father in the house kept coughing and looked very sick.

Jia Zhengjin asked for more information about Niu Xi's family and knocked on the door: "Uncle Bao, I'm Shunzi."

After a while, the door opened, and the sick Niu Bao stood at the door with a pale face: "What's the matter?"

"Nothing, just send you some firewood." Niu Bao was sick and couldn't go up the mountain, and his son Niu Xi was always running around outside and didn't care about the family, so the firewood needed at home was bought by Niu Shun. It was normal to send firewood to his house.

"Oh, thank you!" Niu Bao nodded, "Still put it at the door, I'll get you the money."

"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin put the firewood in the place where they piled firewood at the door, turned around and observed to see if Niu Xi had come back.

After a while, Niu Bao came over with two copper coins and coughed and handed them to Niu Shun: "Here, firewood money."

"Oh!" Jia Zhengjin put them away,

"Uncle Bao, you seem to be getting worse and worse?"

"Ah~" Hearing this, Niu Bao couldn't help sighing, "It's all old problems. I'm really uncomfortable recently."

"Why don't you go see a doctor?"

"Forget it! I've been living like this for many years. Why spend that money in vain." Niu Bao held the door railing, "Besides, don't you know the situation of my family? I don't have that much spare money."

That's right. According to what Yue Lang and Niu Shun said, Niu Xi didn't have a proper life at all. He ran around with his friends every day.

Niu Bao's health was like this, and he had to work in the fields frequently, barely making a living.

If it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't even spend two copper coins to buy firewood.

"Where has Xizi been running around all day? He doesn't even take care of you, Uncle Bao..."

"Hey! My... I really don't want to say it." Niu Bao sighed deeply, "It's all my fault. He has been disobedient since he was a child and likes to go against me. It is said that a good son is born under the stick, but the more I beat him, the more I hate me. Now I don't expect so much. If only he could be half as sensible as you..."

"What has Xizi been doing these two days?"

"What else can he do? He doesn't do the work in the fields and runs around all day." Niu Bao sighed, "Ahem... Shunzi, aren't you going to continue chopping wood today? It's not dark yet!"

"Oh! I want to rest today, I have something to do."

"Rest? Are the firewood for the Liu family and the Li family ready?"

"The Liu family and the Li family?" Jia Zhengjin was slightly stunned.

"It's not settled, right? You're going to starve if you don't get the money?" Niu Bao advised, "Go there before it gets dark. Don't copy my family. It's a worry."

"Oh!" Jia Zhengjin left Niu Xi's house in a daze. In fact, he didn't know who Da Liu and Lao Li were.

He didn't want to waste time chopping wood, although it was very simple with the system.

But for now, he had to hide his identity first, so that no one could see through it, especially Yue Lang.

If Yue Lang knew that he had changed into Niu Shun, he would definitely obstruct his plan.

Just like if he found out Yue Lang's changed image and knew his movements, he would definitely try to obstruct him.

Since Niu Xi hadn't come back, at least he didn't want to be suspected by the villagers on the first day. He had to play the role of Niu Shun well.

So he went home and took the hatchet and went to the mountains to work again.

There is a world of difference between having a system and not having a system. The real Niu Shun was very tired and very slow when chopping wood.

Jia Zhengjin was very simple. When chopping wood, the wood and twigs would automatically enter the virtual backpack. He just had to take them out and bundle them up.

Moreover, the virtual backpack was large enough to hold countless wood and twigs. He could pack them up and take them back at once, which was enough for several days of firewood.

While chopping wood, he was also thinking about how to act, how to approach Niu Xi naturally, and how to make him change.

It is not easy to make a person change in a short period of time unless there are enough incentives.

Incentives...

For people, interests are the biggest incentive.

First of all, he had to use some kind of interests to make Niu Xi temporarily stop getting together with his friends, and then be willing to get closer to him, and then he could find a way to understand Niu Xi and change his attitude towards his father Niu Bao.

First of all, we need to confirm whether Niu Xi really has no filial piety towards his father, or whether it is because the father-son relationship is too rigid, leading to rebellious psychology.

Only after a specific understanding can we develop a plan based on the current situation to improve their father-son relationship, and even let Niu Xi turn back and become a responsible and filial son.

The first step is to let Niu Xi temporarily stop associating with those bad friends. How to do it?
