Chapter 63 Leaving Home
"I want to go too." A voice sounded from the corner.
Everyone was stunned again.
Zhang Xiaohu turned around and saw that it was Zhang Xiaohua sitting in the corner.
Guo Sufei said angrily: "Xiaohua, what are you causing trouble? Your second brother is looking for a wife. You are still young, why are you going to Pingyang City?"
Zhang Xiaohu quit and said angrily: "Mom, I'm not just looking for a wife, it depends on what you said."
Guo Sufei looked at Zhang Xiaohu with a smile and was about to say something, but Zhang Xiaohua's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.
"I want to go to Pingyang City to learn martial arts!"
"Learning martial arts? Why?" Everyone was very surprised.
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua had already walked out of the corner, stood at the door, looked up at his little face, and said to everyone: "Actually, ever since I met my sister-in-law in Lu Zhen, I have been thinking about why we were Others bullied me but I didn’t have the strength to fight back. It wasn’t until I was injured by a bandit when I was marrying my sister-in-law that I knew the answer. That’s because we don’t have martial arts. We don’t have enough strength to make people afraid. If I knew martial arts, those people would You will definitely not dare to take action against us. Moreover, didn’t the uncle just say that the bandits from Xicui Mountain might come to our door? It is not safe to always rely on the protection of others. Only by mastering it yourself can you truly succeed. Face the bandits."
After saying this, Zhang Xiaohua looked back at the dark courtyard outside. There were already faint stars in the sky. He added, "Only by learning martial arts can I protect myself and everyone else."
After hearing Zhang Xiaohua's words, everyone had different reactions. Mr. Liu and Liu Kai looked at him in surprise. When they were getting married last time, Zhang Xiaohua's handwriting made them marvel at it. Now they listen to his words again. These words made the two of them take another look at this young man who was just thirteen years old.
Butcher Liu opened his mouth wide, as if he wanted to say something, but no words came out.
Zhang Xiaolong had a look of shame on his face, and looked at this young brother whom he had brought up since childhood, feeling faintly proud in his heart.
Zhang Xiaohu, on the other hand, had a happy face and seemed to have had an enlightenment. He had found his direction again and looked happily at his younger brother who was standing in front of him and was a head shorter than him.
Guo Sufei and Zhang Cai looked at each other, their relaxed brows frowning again. What they were thinking about was not their own safety, but the safety of their son.
Only Liu Qian looked calm, as if she had expected Zhang Xiaohua's words.
It was Mr. Liu who spoke first. He said: "Xiaohua, I think your idea is right. However, I have never learned martial arts, so I can't give you any advice. I just heard that learning martial arts is very difficult. It cannot be learned overnight, and there are many risks in learning martial arts. If you are not careful, you may be injured or killed. You still have to think about it carefully. Besides, you are a smart child, why not learn from me in the future? How about it? In the future, if you get a meritorious degree, you can also honor your ancestors?"
Liu Kai also advised: "As the old saying goes, the poor are poor in literature and rich in martial arts. Learning martial arts is not something that poor people like us can do. Xiaohua's handwriting was so good last time. Study hard with my father. Learning martial arts is also a very good thing. The peaceful and healthy Avenue to Heaven."
Guo Sufei and Zhang Cai still didn't speak, they just frowned.
Zhang Xiaohu said: "That's right, Xiaohua, why don't you study at home, and I'll go to Pingyang City to learn martial arts. I'm older now, so parents can rest assured. You are a child, how can I rest assured that you can go so far?" ?”
Zhang Xiaohua looked at the crowd and asked, "Can Xi Wen protect the family from bandits? Can Xi Wen eliminate violence and bring peace to the people?"
Everyone was speechless.
Zhang Cai asked: "How do you go to Pingyang City to practice martial arts?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "The hero Wen who saved us in Lu Town last time is not from the Miao Miao sect in Pingyang City. I'll go find him. Maybe I can learn martial arts."
Guo Sufei said: "Xiaohua, you are still young, can you wait until you are older?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said to her mother: "Mother,
Ambition is not about age, and besides, I am no longer young. I should be like my second brother and find my own path. Otherwise, I will not be able to find a suitable wife. "
Zhang Xiaohua's words made Guo Sufei laugh out loud and said, "You're still young, but you already miss your wife."
Zhang Cai thought for a moment and said, "Xiaolong, Qianqian, take Xiaohu and Xiaohua back to sleep first, and your mother and I will think about it later."
Zhang Xiaolong got up after hearing this, and went home with Liu Qian, Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua first.
There were only five adults left in the main room.
Zhang Cai asked Mr. Liu: "What do the in-laws think about the two of them?"
Mr. Liu said with a smile: "No matter what happens, I would like to congratulate my in-laws for having two promising children. At such an age, you can worry about family affairs, face it bravely, and come up with your own solutions. It is really a blessing for your in-laws." What a blessing."
Zhang Cai was very happy in his heart, but he still waved his hand and said: "It's all crazy talk from children, don't take it seriously."
Mr. Liu said sternly: "I'm not complimenting my in-laws. How many children from the countryside can have such knowledge and say such things? However, he is indeed still young and doesn't know the dangers outside. It's okay to go out and have some experience." It's a good thing, besides, there is a little tiger. You can rest assured that the little tiger is with him. When he knows that it is dangerous outside, he will definitely miss the warmth of home. You don't need to tell him, he will come back. Maybe then the little tiger will also It’s not impossible to come back together if you meet the right girl.”
Liu Kai interrupted and said: "Uncle, I don't think it's a bad thing for Xiaohua to go out. I feel that Xiaohua is not a simple child. Staying in a small village like ours all day may bury his life. Maybe there will be some opportunities when he goes out." , can do great things.”
Zhang Cai said with a wry smile: "No big deal, we don't expect him to be very successful. As long as he gets a wife, has children, and lives a stable life, we will be satisfied. Big things are done by people in the town, and we people in the countryside do it." , just serve the crops."
Guo Sufei was not happy and said: "Everyone is a prince, general or prime minister. I still remember the flowers flying all over the sky when I gave birth to a baby. Maybe my son will do big things."
However, she then said in confusion: "However, Pingyang City is too far away. Why don't we let him practice martial arts in Lu Town? It's also close. I miss him. Just go and have a look. If it's far away, just go there." It’s not convenient either.”
Butcher Liu said: "It seems that there is some kind of evil tiger gang in Lu Town? You can go there to practice martial arts."
Hearing the word "Evil Tiger Gang", Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei's hearts skipped a beat. The bodyguards of the bully last time were members of the Evil Tiger Gang. It's not a good thing to see them helping others to do evil. Besides, they still have so many people at home. How could Xiaohua go to the Evil Tiger Gang with an unknown banknote?
Guo Sufei asked Mr. Liu: "Does the in-laws agree with their going?"
Mr. Liu nodded and said: "Yes, we scholars have a saying, reading thousands of books will travel a thousand miles. Only by going out and gaining knowledge can you truly learn the things in the books. I guess the same is true for martial arts. No matter how talented people are in this small mountain village, they will be short-sighted. I agree with them going out."
Liu Kai, who was next to him, also nodded with a smile and said: "I have been to Pingyang City. At worst, I will take them there, but this seems to be inconsistent with their original intention. I will tell them the details of going out later. Xiaohu is also big." Yes, there won’t be any problem.”
Butcher Liu said: "What are you going to do? It's so relaxing to stay at home, I don't agree."
Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei looked at each other and said, "Let's think about this again and find a proper solution."
Then a few people chatted for a while, and after seeing how late it was, they left and went home.
In the evening, Guo Sufei and Zhang Cai also discussed it for half the night, and then fell asleep when it was almost dawn.
Butcher Liu and Liu Kai couldn't stay in Guozhuang for a long time. After breakfast, they left in a hurry. Before leaving, Liu Kai told Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua in detail the route to Pingyang City and the things to pay attention to. Everyone also remembered it carefully. Judging from Liu Kai's appearance, his parents were persuaded last night, and the two of them couldn't help but smile on their faces.
After seeing off Butcher Liu and Liu Kai, Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua were about to go to work in the fields. Only then did they realize that if they both left, what would happen to the family's fields?
Zhang Xiaolong and Liu Qian, who were walking together, seemed to understand their thoughts. Zhang Xiaolong said: "You two, just go and see the outside world. We have discussed the fields at home with your sister-in-law last night. The original land at home is Let dad plant the piece of land by the river, and let me and your sister-in-law plant the piece of land by the river and the small flowers on the slope. Plus mother, can the four of us still not take care of these two and a half pieces of land? ?”
Zhang Xiaohua and Zhang Xiaohu looked at their eldest brother and sister-in-law without saying anything, but their hearts felt warm.
In the following days, Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei didn't mention this matter again. Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel anxious. Maybe they didn't agree, so this matter would be ignored. They even wanted to run away secretly. go out.
After dinner that day, Zhang Cai stopped the two of them. Their hearts were beating wildly. It seemed that it was time to reveal the answer to the mystery. As expected, Zhang Cai said: "What happened to the two of you going to Pingyang City?" , I checked with your mother, and I still think I should listen to you. Your mother has already made some clothes for you, so you can take them with you."
After saying that, Guo Sufei took out some brand new clothes from the back room. It seemed that they had just been made in the past few days. Zhang Xiaohua's nose felt a little sore. The old people were really worried about their children. They thought of everything, but she thought she was not allowed to go, and she had other ideas.
Looking at Liu Qian's smiling face next to her, I guess her sister-in-law's hard work must have gone into the clothes.
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said to Liu Qian: "Sister-in-law, you know that our parents asked us to go, why didn't you tell us and make us anxious in vain?"
Liu Qian said: "When you go out, you have to be scheming. If something happens, don't get angry in a hurry. You must face it calmly and calmly. Doesn't this also test you first?"
