Chapter 49 I have a road in Jianghuai Zeye "Shunzi, hurry up, why don't you give it to Brother Shui? Do you know how expensive it is? Just take it." Chen Qingjiang rushed over to snatch the peach cake from Shunzi's mouth, and Shunzi was so frightened that he was stunned. Liang Qu stepped forward and stopped Chen Qingjiang. "Uncle Chen, what you said is true. Food is bought to be eaten. It doesn't matter who eats it. How can it be wasted? Those old men eat it every day. They have two eyes and one mouth. How can they taste different flavors? Shunzi, don't be afraid. Just eat what I tell you to eat. The food is mine. How can your father control my things?" "How can it be the same? Shunzi! Why are you so disobedient?" Chen Qingjiang shouted again, his voice louder because he was anxious. Xiao Shunzi stood there with a bitter face. When he heard that it was expensive, he didn't dare to eat it anymore. He broke the piece he had nibbled into pieces, held it in both hands and was about to return it to Liang Qu. "Uncle Chen! If you do this again I won't come next time!"
"What's wrong, what's wrong, why are you arguing? Qingjiang, what are you doing? I just told you this? How come you forgot it in a blink of an eye!" Chen Renxing, who was in the house, heard the noise and thought that the two people were arguing. He chased out with his clothes on and scolded Chen Qingjiang. "Dad, it's not me, this..." Chen Qingjiang felt really aggrieved and didn't know how to defend himself. He was scolded like a son. Oh, that’s how it is. That’s okay. Liang Qu laughed: "It's okay, Grandpa Chen, we didn't quarrel, we were just joking. I brought something for Shunzi, but Uncle Chen insisted on stopping me from taking it. He felt it was too hot if I didn't use some strength." "Yes, that's it." Chen Renxing was suspicious: "Is that true?" "Really?" Liang Qu picked up Xiao Shunzi with one arm and stuffed the peach cake back. "So Uncle Chen, please don't be polite to me. I get annoyed when you're polite to me." Chen Renxing glanced at the Wufangzhai box in Liang Qu's hand, and thought of his son's usual honesty, so he felt relieved and called Liang Qu into the house: "Come in quickly, it's cold outside. And Qingjiang, what are you doing standing there? Why are you so dull now?" "Oh, come in quickly, I'll go get a stool, A-Di, you go get some water." Liang Qu laughed and shook his head, there is always a mountain higher than the other. After entering the house, everyone found a place to sit down. Chen Qingjiang brought the stove over, closed the door, and everyone gathered around the stove, warming themselves up gradually. "Ah Shui, are you short of money? I've saved some money recently, I'll go get it for you now." "It has nothing to do with money. Uncle Chen, please sit down! I am not short of money. Have you paid back the money for the clinic?" Chen Qingjiang sighed, "Not yet. It's cold and we can't catch any fish. I don't have much money to spare." "That's good. I'm not in a hurry for the money. I came to you today mainly to discuss three things. By the way, I'll bring you some things. This and this." Liang Qu placed the Wufangzhai box and a large paper bag on the table and pushed them over. "For us?" A'di looked at the box from Wufangzhai in disbelief. She knew Wufangzhai, so this box must have cost several thousand coins. Chen Qingjiang even said it was impossible. He thought Liang Qu was just giving them a piece of peach cake, but he didn't expect that he would give them a whole box. "Uncle Chen, don't say anything. Listen to me first." Seeing that Uncle Chen was about to refuse again, Liang Qu directly interrupted the spell.
"The first thing is that I have been accepted as a direct disciple by the owner of the Yang Clan Martial Arts School in Pingyang Town. You may not understand it very well. To put it simply, I will not have to pay to learn martial arts in the future. I can directly learn from Master Yang. I am no longer an ordinary apprentice who pays money. I bring this box of cakes to you as a celebration. When Shunzi grows up and matures, he can go to the martial arts gym with me directly without spending any money. My master won’t mind this little thing. The second thing is that I asked my senior brothers for some medicinal powder, which is used to treat Grandpa Chen’s injuries. Take it with water twice a day for two days, and you will be fine after finishing this packet. The third thing is, I have a road in the Jianghuai marshes and found a gathering place for fish. I have to practice martial arts and won't have much time to spare for the boat in the future. I want Uncle Chen to go fishing with me in the next few days. It's a small favor for me. We can split the fish we catch 50-50. Well, that's about it, I'm done. " Liang Qu glanced around, leaving only Chen Qingjiang's family in silence, their brains seemed to have not reacted. "Any questions?" "Personal disciple?" "Ah." "Can Shunzi also learn martial arts?" "Yes." "Is this medicine expensive?" "It's not expensive. It's very cheap." It is indeed cheap, Liang Qu did not spend a penny. He just ground the lotus root into paste and dried it. The effect is not as good, but it is still okay. One package contains two pieces, which is enough for Chen Renxing to recover his vitality. Chen Qingjiang's family was overwhelmed by the surprise, except Shunzi, who was squatting by the stove eating peach cakes, not quite understanding what was going on. The peach pastry is so delicious, and Brother Shui is such a nice person, he thought. "Of course I can help with fishing. If Ah Shui asks, I will definitely help. But the other two things are really..." "Stop! I know what you are going to say, Uncle Chen. If you keep saying it, I will leave. Don't be so polite. I can't stand it." Chen Qingjiang's spell was interrupted again. His face turned red and he felt very uncomfortable. "Since Uncle Chen agreed to fish, there will be no problem." Liang Qu had the idea of asking Uncle Chen to help with fishing early on. On the one hand, it was to improve Uncle Chen's family's life. Uncle Chen was strong-willed and owed so much debt. There was little fish catch in winter, and since he couldn't give him money directly, he thought of a way to increase his income. On the other hand, it also allows me to free up time so I don’t have to pretend to go out on the boat every day. The fat catfish only has one mouth, and its efficiency is actually very low. If they can join forces with the one that cannot move, the two beasts can surround and drive the fish underwater, and then let Chen Qingjiang cast the net above. The efficiency can be much higher, and everyone can make money by splitting the profits 50-50. Uncle Chen is a good person. Even if you accidentally let him see something he shouldn’t see, he won’t tell anyone and will just keep it to himself. Besides, raising aquatic animals doesn’t mean anything. There are people who like to raise big crocodiles. There was a long silence. Chen Qingjiang finally managed to utter: "Ah Shui, you have really made progress."
"Yeah, I've made some progress." Chen Renxing followed closely. "He has a bright future," A-Di added. "Brother Shui is definitely promising!" Xiao Shunzi finished a piece of peach cake, wiped the residue from the corner of his mouth, and was the first to raise his hand. "Then won't Ah Shui become the master too?" Chen Renxing unconsciously reached for his waist belt, wanting to take off his pipe and take a puff, but he held back when he noticed Liang Qu was still behind him. master! What a distant and majestic word, as if these two words alone exude an air of superiority. When Chen Renxing thought about his neighbor becoming a master, the wounds on his back felt hot and itchy. "So you can just accept this box of Wufangzhai. There's no rush for the money, just take your time. Pay the hospital's debt first, and I'll come find Uncle Chen tomorrow. Uncle Chen, don't leave the boat just yet." "it is good." "Oh, there is one more thing. Do you know about the big demon the night before yesterday?" "I've heard that it's time to offer sacrifices." "Yes, I may not be at home these two days." Liang Qu took out two coins of silver from his waist pocket and put them on the table. "If someone comes to collect the money, Sister A Di, please pay it for me. I have asked Uncle Li Dakang, and two coins of silver should be enough." "Ok." A-di nodded. On weekdays, Chen Qingjiang would go out fishing and Chen Renxing would go out to sell baskets and cloth, so she was the only one who could stay at home all the time. Everyone chatted for a while, until Liang Qu was about to leave, Chen Qingjiang suddenly said: "A Shui, if you are going to the town these two days, you must be careful. I went to sell fish this morning and heard something that a martial artist died in the town." Liang Qu was shocked: "Martial Master? What's your name?" "I can't remember it clearly, it seems to be called something." Chen Qingjiang frowned and thought. He was not the kind of person who liked to ask questions, so he really couldn't remember it all of a sudden. "You kid, why do you become so stupid when it comes to the critical moment? What can you accomplish? If you can't remember, don't eat today." Chen Renxing was so angry that he hit Chen Qingjiang on the back of his head with his pipe, and Chen Qingjiang seemed to be hit by a heavy blow. "Oh, I remember now, his name is Lu Shaohui!"
