Chapter 104 Return to the Village
After Zhang Xiaohua sat firmly, he asked with a smile: "Xiaohua, are you familiar with this Qiutong?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "Of course. Sister Qiutong asked me to go to Huanxi Villa. Of course I am very familiar with it."
"How old is Qiu Tong? Where is her family name? Is there anyone else in the family? Also, is she... is she married?" Li Jinfeng asked a long list of questions in succession.
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and murmured: "We are familiar with each other, but... we have only met a few times. I am really not very clear about the questions you asked. How about I meet Sister Qiutong next time?" When the time comes, let me ask you."
Li Jinfeng put his index finger in the middle of his mouth, said "Shh~" and said: "I'm so embarrassed to ask her these things in person. Just wait until you have time and find an opportunity to ask her slowly. However, you must pay special attention and don't Let her know that it’s me who wants to ask?”
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and asked: "Why? That's what you want to know. Why are you so sneaky?"
Li Jinfeng put his hands behind his back, looked out the window, and said: "Guan Guan Jujiu, in Hezhizhou, a graceful lady, a gentleman is very brave. Xiaohua, you are still young, you will know it when you grow up."
Zhang Xiaohua was confused and asked: "Where does this sentence come from? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Li Jinfeng smiled and said: "Xiao Hua, there are so many books in the world, and it is rare for me to read even 10% of them in my lifetime. Therefore, the sea of learning is boundless but my heart is boundless. Only by reading more and reading good books often can I Keep up with the times. This sentence is from a legendary song in a book. You will know the specific meaning when you have a chance to read it. Even if I say it now, you won’t quite understand it.”
Zhang Xiaohua curled her lips, but she agreed in her heart. She had only studied for a few days, but Li Jinfeng had been studying for decades. Of course, his knowledge and experience could not be compared with him. At this stage, of course, what he said was what he said. There's no way to argue with him, he's not a heavyweight.
The two chatted for a while. Li Jinfeng kept asking Zhang Xiaohua about Qiu Tong intentionally or unintentionally. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaohua never saw Qiu Tong again when she arrived at Huanxi Villa. All she knew was what others said. It was a bit trivial, but Li Jinfeng was very interested in hearing this. Later, Li Jinfeng suddenly remembered and asked Zhang Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, you have only been in Pingyang City for a few days, how come you suddenly met Qiu Tong? I have been in Pingyang City longer than you. Duo, why don’t you have this opportunity?”
Zhang Xiaohua told the story of how she met Qiu Tong. Li Jinfeng sighed and said, "You have come across such a good opportunity. If only I were the one, I would be able to bring that thief to Qiu Tong." In front of you."
Zhang Xiaohua curled her lips again and said: "If it were you, where would my job be? There are guys of the opposite sex and no friends. Even the parents of a certain family have to scheme against each other. Besides, if you were like you and caught thieves, that day was not If someone touches your wallet, you won't know."
When Li Jinfeng heard this, his eyes couldn't help but brighten, and he said: "So, Qiu Tong and I both encountered thieves, and it was because of you that our wallets were not lost. It seems that Qiu Tong and I are really destined." ah."
Seeing Li Jinfeng's extremely narcissistic look, Zhang Xiaohua rolled his eyes. Even if he thought about it with his own words, he knew that Li Jinfeng was very interested in Qiu Tong. However, Li Jinfeng forced fate like this This is the first time Zhang Xiaohua has seen the master, and probably the first time in Pingyang City.
If this is fate, then Yue Lao's red thread is worthless.
In the evening, Zhang Xiaohu came back, and Zhang Xiaohua told him what happened today. Zhang Xiaohu was very happy, and a stone fell in his heart. Mr. Qu had promised to take care of Huanxi Villa before, but Zhang Xiaohua didn't do it all day. After receiving the news from the Villa, he naturally didn't feel at ease for a day. He had also met Qiu Tong. She was the one who took Zhang Xiaohua to Huanxi Villa. Zhang Xiaohu still believed in Qiu Tong's words.
The remaining days,
Although Zhang Xiaohua was still lying on the kang to recover from her injuries, she felt as if a cat was scratching her. She didn't want to stay on the kang anymore. She kept thinking about going back to the villa. Even the books that Li Jinfeng brought him had no intention of reading. , and Zhang Xiaohu was also a little irritated. After all, practicing internal skills is not as easy to see results as practicing boxing. After learning this inner skill for such a long time, he has not yet touched the threshold, so naturally he cannot meditate.
So when the two brothers were in the house, they couldn't help but stare at each other. They were bored for a while, so Zhang Xiaohua asked Zhang Xiaohu: "Second brother, why don't I go back to Huanxi Villa first? I have been in the escort agency for several months, and even this I don’t go out much of the house, and I’m tired of it. I know some people over there in the villa, and the place there is big, just like our Guozhuang. I can move around now, and I’m not afraid of hurting my bones again. You see Woolen cloth?"
Zhang Xiaohu thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, it's not interesting to see you being distracted here. I'll see the doctor at the medical center for a final look tomorrow and then I'll send you back. By the way, I heard you talk about that carriage and horse." There is a car at the shop, and after the doctor has finished reading, we will find the carriage shop and get a car to take you back."
Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while and said, "Second brother, I heard from my roommate Ma Jing that riding in this carriage seems to be quite expensive. I think I'd better walk back by myself. Anyway, I haven't been active for such a long time. It's okay to go for a walk." Okay, by the way, this is my monthly salary from working at Huanxi Villa. You can take it back to your father and mother when you have time." With that, Zhang Xiaohua took out several coins from his arms. He handed Zhang Xiaohu a month's worth of money, and then said: "The main purpose of coming to the Escort Bureau this time is to see you and give you this money, but I ended up staying here for several months. It's really a twist of fate."
Zhang Xiaohu looked at the silver coins in his younger brother's little palm and felt sad. He didn't know what to say. After a long time, he said, "Xiaohua, please put these coins away first. Going out is not as good as being at home. There are so many inconveniences. You are in the villa by yourself, and I am not with you. There are many places that need money. You should also buy more things for yourself. What your parents want at home is that you are in good health and live a good life. Only you can take care of yourself first, and then Consider taking it back to them."
Zhang Xiaohua insisted on putting the money into Zhang Xiaohu's hand and said: "It doesn't matter, second brother, I won't come out in the villa. Everything is ready-made there. I don't have to buy food or clothes myself. I still have What should I buy? Besides, this is the first time I have received monthly money. It has a very important commemorative significance. It must be given to my parents. It was very hard for them to raise me like this. This money is a sign of my growth. , which is also my intention to honor them."
Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "This Li Jinfeng is really good. He teaches you a gentle manner and speaks a lot of truths. Well, if you say so, I will put it away first and let others take it back when I have the opportunity. But , you have just recovered from a serious illness, it is better not to work too hard, I have been receiving monthly payment from the escort agency for several months, I will pay for you to take the carriage back."
Zhang Xiaohua, however, was not happy. She tried to push him away for a while, but Zhang Xiaohu felt sorry for his younger brother. He kept insisting until he was about to go to bed, but there was no result.
The next day, early in the morning, Zhang Xiaohua asked Zhang Xiaohu to take her to the hospital, and let the old doctor take a look at it. The doctor looked at it carefully, then still wrapped the medicine cloth, and said to Zhang Xiaohua with a smile : "The bones have grown neatly and are recovering well, and the time is shorter than I expected. It seems that this period of time has been very hard on you. From today on, you can freely move your right hand, but , be sure not to use force at first, it is just normal telescoping for the time being. Remember never to lift heavy objects with your right hand. When working, try to use your left hand. By the way, try to use your right hand when eating. It can train the flexibility of your right hand. sex."
Zhang Xiaohua asked anxiously: "Then when can I box?"
The doctor looked at Zhang Xiaohua's expectant eyes, then looked at Zhang Xiaohu, and said kindly: "Well, you can move your right hand first. After a few days, the medicine will be removed, and then you can try boxing. However, you must Remember, boxing training is only for physical fitness, being competitive is not the purpose of boxing training. You must try your best to avoid competing with others or causing trouble in the future."
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned, why would you be practicing boxing if you weren't fighting? However, he still nodded in understanding.
Zhang Xiaohua happily followed Zhang Xiaohu back, wanting to move her arms eagerly as she walked. Zhang Xiaohu quickly stopped him and said, "Although the doctor has asked you to move, there must be a limit. Don't move so much. Or Try to move a little bit first, and then practice your boxing technique after a while. By the way, I think what Mr. Li said is reasonable, you might as well read more books, maybe practicing essays is more interesting?" Zhang Xiaohu still tried to persuade Zhang Xiaohua.
Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly walked peacefully and replied disapprovingly: "Study writing is so boring. Although those books look very interesting, it is boring to study them every day. I still want to practice boxing and internal strength."
Zhang Xiaohu said: "Hey, what kind of internal skills are you practicing? Let's not mention that you still don't know where to learn the internal skills and mental methods. I have been practicing this internal skills and mental methods for so long without making any progress at all. It is too difficult to practice martial arts."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said: "Second brother, didn't you often say that all it takes is hard work to grind an iron pestle into a needle? Why do you say such depressing words now?"
Zhang Xiaohu smiled bitterly and said: "It depends on what kind of iron it is. Alas, I won't say more. Maybe you will know how difficult this is by then. Now, you won't believe it. However, since you insist on it, When practicing martial arts, you must proceed step by step, slowly move your right hand, and then start practicing boxing when the time is right."
As they talked, the two returned to the hut. At this time, a person was waiting in front of Zhang Xiaohu's house. When he saw Zhang Xiaohu coming back, he hurriedly said: "Zhang Xiaohu, where did you go? Master Li Liu is looking for you in a hurry. "
He seemed to be in a hurry, so Zhang Xiaohu didn't have time to say anything to Zhang Xiaohua. He just told him not to go back to the villa until he came back.
Zhang Xiaohua wanted to leave on her own, but seeing the way her second brother glared at her, she still stayed in the room obediently.
While I was waiting boredly, I heard someone outside shouting: "Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua, where are you?"
As soon as Zhang Xiaohua heard this familiar voice, she jumped down from the kang with joy. Before she left the room, she said loudly: "Here it is, Brother Ma, I'm here."
It turned out that it was Zhang Xiaohua's roommate Ma Jing who came outside.
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua had not seen her roommate for several months, and she rushed out of the house with all the resentment she felt toward him and even her smelly feet behind.
When he arrived at the door, Ma Jing also came over looking for the sound. He was very happy to see Zhang Xiaohua coming out of the house. He stepped forward to hold Zhang Xiaohua's right hand. At this time, Zhang Xiaohua was already used to using After picking up his left hand, he naturally stretched out his left hand. Ma Jing was stunned and quickly changed his hand. When Zhang Xiaohua understood, the scene of picking his feet immediately came to mind, but it was too late. Ma Jing had already grabbed his left hand enthusiastically. In his hand, his right hand patted Zhang Xiaohua's shoulder naturally. Zhang Xiaohua didn't shrink his hand or retract his shoulder. He just heard Ma Jing say enthusiastically: "Brother, long time no see, I miss you very much." Yeah, how come your voice has become so nice? You actually came straight after me, you have a bit of my demeanor back then."
Zhang Xiaohua shrank her hand and wanted to let Ma Jing into the house, but Ma Jing held his hand tightly and didn't wait for him to speak, then said: "Brother, did you know that day, I was thinking about returning to the village to show you the way. I went back to the village when I arrived. I didn't see you at the door of the village. I thought you had gone back to the house by yourself, but there was no sign of you in the house. I was surprised. You said that if you didn't come back, I wouldn't have to go back. It's early, Xiaotao... Oh, I will wait for you at the entrance of Zhuangzi for a while, otherwise you won't be able to find a place to stay when you come back at night. Moreover, you still didn't come back the next day, and I thought even more You, well, you said Brother Xi is the same. Even though we are roommates, I can’t do all your work alone. Why don’t you let others share some of it? I’m so tired without you. It's embarrassing. I was waiting for you with hope for the stars and the moon, but when I heard Brother Xi say that you actually injured your hand, I felt dizzy. You can't leave all your work to me, right? Fortunately, Brother Xi still has some. Human nature doesn't let me do it all, but I'm still tired compared to before. Look at me, I'm so thin, it's just the sequelae of that time."
Zhang Xiaohua apologized and said, "Brother Ma, it's really hard. I apologize here. I will look up to Brother Ma more in the future."
After saying that, he took advantage of the situation to take out his left hand, but as soon as he took it out, it was held by Ma Jing more enthusiastically. Ma Jing said with tears in his eyes: "Brother, you can see it too? But don't admire me, brother is just There is this shortcoming of helping others.”
Zhang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She could only stretch out her left hand and let Ma Jing hold it, but secretly swore in her heart: "I will wash my hands ten or eight times in a while, and I must practice my body skills well. I will never let Ma Jing get close next time." Half a step."
Afterwards, Ma Jing went on to tell all the trivial life details and trivial squabbles of the people in the villa. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaohua wanted to wash his hands all the time. He just played the piano to the cow and acted like a pearl, and finally Ma Jing made the closing remarks. Words: "Fortunately, a month after you were injured, my closest comrade and roommate, Liu Er, came back and saved me from the sea of labor. By the way, you haven't met Liu Er yet, right? Come here , I will give you an introduction."
After saying that, he took Zhang Xiaohua's hand and stepped aside, revealing a short, fat and honest figure behind him. Ma Jing was already not tall, but this fat man was actually a bit shorter than Ma Jing. No wonder he was Ma Jing was blocked by Zhang Xiaohua, but he was not as tall as Ma Jing, but he was almost as fat as Ma Jing. Thinking about the food at Huanxi Villa, Zhang Xiaohua understood. Zhang Xiaohua quickly took advantage of the situation and took out her hand, saluted the short and fat Liu Er and said, "Brother Liu, I have heard your name for a long time, and we just met today."
Liu Er also returned the courtesy and spoke in a very low voice: "Zhang Xiaohua, hello, your injury has healed."
Zhang Xiaohua said: "Thank you Brother Liu for your concern. It's already going well."
Then, Zhang Xiaohua said to the two of them: "Brothers, please come and sit in the room."
Ma Jing stopped, looked at the sky and said, "Xiaohua, it's getting late. We're not here just to see you."
Zhang Xiaohua was disappointed for a while and said: "Why are you leaving so soon? Why don't you sit down and chat for a while, and when my second brother comes back, I will go with you. Anyway, I am healed from my injury, and I am talking to my second brother." We are discussing going back to the villa."
Ma Jing continued: "Well, I didn't come here specifically to see you, but I came out to do some business and picked you up back to the villa."
Ma Jing emphasized the word "watch" very hard. After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua suddenly thought, Alas, Ma Jing will not change his habit.
Zhang Xiaohua said: "Let's do this, Brother Ma, Brother Liu, you go into the house first, and I'll go find the second brother. Just tell him and I'll follow you right away."
After hearing this, the two of them entered the house.
However, when the two of them entered the house and Zhang Xiaohua walked out of the small courtyard, she realized that she still didn’t know where to look for Zhang Xiaohu. There were many people in the escort agency and the place was big. Zhang Xiaohua was not stupid enough to think that everyone in the escort agency was there. Everyone knows Zhang Xiaohu, and he still has a vague impression of the martial arts school. However, Zhang Xiaohu was called away by Master Li Liu today. He still didn't know where the assassin was, so he had to go back to the house temporarily.
Back at the hut, Ma Jing asked, "Why did you finish talking to your second brother so quickly?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "Not yet. I don't know where my second brother has gone. I'd better pack my things first, or write him a note soon."
Ma Jing was stunned and said, "You can write? I remember you don't know how to read."
Zhang Xiaohua said proudly: "Brother Ma, I'm going to look at each other with admiration after three days apart. What's more, we haven't seen each other for more than three months. Can't I know how to write?"
Ma Jing said with envy: "Xiaohua, are you lying to your brother? No matter how you look at it, you don't look like someone who can write in three months."
Zhang Xiaohua said while cleaning up: "Okay, after I clean it up, I will perform it for you to see if I can write it."
