Chapter 14 Fun anecdotes
As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. I originally wanted to take Xiao Douding Zhao Li down to have a bowl of Liangzhou's famous plain noodles, but before entering the city, the sharp-eyed little Taoist priest discovered that a group of Qin soldiers were posting notices at the city gate. In just half a day, even the wanted orders came out, and the three of them had to sigh that Qin Bing's efficiency was quite high sometimes.

Fortunately, Xiao Douding Zhao Lixia didn't cry or make any fuss along the way, and even if he didn't eat some noodles, he looked indifferent.Since the city can't be entered, we can only choose some remote roads.

Fortunately, there are many mountains in the east of Liangzhou. Meng You and the others drove a carriage to a mountain village near the river. An old couple at the foot of the mountain saw that the sudden group of people did not look like bad people. It was already late for them to see the sky. I was afraid that these seemingly young children would encounter any danger on the road, so I kindly took them in.

Farmers are very diligent and thrifty, so the old woman went into the house and rummaged through the cabinets and dug out the clothes the old couple had worn when they were young and asked the three of them to change into them.Looking at the clothes he was wearing, Meng You also smiled sheepishly. Along the way, he only encountered small streams and lakes for two or three days, so he had the opportunity to wash himself properly.But too many things have happened in the past two days, so there has been no cleaning. If you smell it carefully, you can smell the smell of sweat on your body!

After a brief cleaning, Meng You and the little Taoist priest changed their clothes and sat in the yard chatting with the old man. The old man also had a good temper. It was obvious that he must have been a strong man when he was young, doing farm work. Come and you will definitely be a good player!

The old man seemed to like the little Douding Zhao Lixia very much. He held the little guy in his arms after a hard day's work, so that he could have a good sleep.

I learned from the old man that they originally had a son, but later they met bandits and died. Otherwise, their grandson would be about the same age as Meng You now!

Because they both come from poor families, the old man has a good sense of Meng You, especially because this young man actually knows everything about crops. He can talk about things like herding cattle and sheep, and everything in the market. It is very different from those who just want to Young people who join the army in exchange for military merit are different. No matter what the world is, they have to have enough to eat, right?You've all gone to war, can't you rely on a bad old man like him to take care of those abandoned lands?
"Old lady! Is the food ready? What time is it? If you want to starve to death, just tell me!" The old man's voice was loud, and he seemed to be born with an anxious temper.

"Come on, come on! The older you get, the more eager you are to eat! Even if you eat a little later, it won't do!" The old woman poked her head out of the house, "We can't wait for my little daughter-in-law to change her clothes! Do you think they are all like you and haven't washed them for half a year? Get back in the shower!"

The old man who was scolded by the old woman didn't dare to get angry, so he could only mutter to the two of them in a depressed tone: "When I look for a wife in the future, I have to find someone who suits my temper, otherwise I have to bicker all day long, which will be annoying to death." Got it!"

Meng You chuckled and said curiously: "Old man, if you are afraid of your wife, just say you are afraid of your wife, there is no shame in it!"

The old man who had his thoughts revealed wanted to teach this kid a lesson, but he couldn't hold it in. His face turned red and he said: "What does it mean to be afraid of your wife! We men have been upright for the rest of our lives, and there is no way we can be like a woman." !”

Seeing that the old man was still tough-talking, Meng You also followed the old man's words with a playful smile.

"It's time to eat!" The old woman led Su Xiaotong, who was dressed like a farmer's daughter-in-law, out of the house, holding the prepared vegetables and rice. "You guys, don't be idle, hurry up and clear the table!"

It was said to be a table, but it was actually a round table with polished tree roots. The old man was cleaning it up while whispering to Meng You!
"Young man, you have a good eye for choosing a wife. After looking at that figure, I can designate a fat boy for you!"

"Hey, my wife is good at everything. She just keeps a cold face all day long. If I ask her to smile more, she won't listen!" Meng You didn't want to explain more, "Why don't you take some time to talk to my wife? Can you tell me a little bit about it?"

"How can I, an old man, tell this girl!" The old man glared at Meng You, "I don't think you come from a wealthy family. It would be great to have a wife. How dare you be picky!"

Although the two of them lowered their voices, how could they escape Su Xiaotong's ears? Seeing Su Xiaotong's heroic eyes glance at him, Meng You also hurriedly laughed, for fear of angering this aunt.

The food was ordinary people's food, all grown by the two old men themselves. Although they didn't see much oil and water, it was pure natural and the old woman's craftsmanship was unparalleled, so the food was quickly swept away by a few people. .

After the meal, Su Xiaotong cleared the table with the old lady, while Meng You borrowed a hoe and some carpentry items from the old man and took Zhao Lixia towards the mountain.

Although the village is not big, with only a few dozen people at full capacity, people are prone to misfortunes and good fortunes, and as time goes by, more and more people will die.

There is a geomantic treasure land on the mountain. It is said that the Taoist priests who traveled far away specially chose the burial place for them in order to repay the villagers for their kindness. People in the village have been buried here for generations. You don’t have to go two miles to go up the mountain. , you can see various tombstones.

Without saying a word, Meng You began to chop down the old tree on the side. Meng You, who had been proficient in everything except reading since childhood, did not know how much time he spent. He only saw the bright moon hanging in the sky, and then he polished a coffin with his own hands and put the Zhao family in it. The sister's body was placed in it, and a wooden tablet was carved with a dagger. This was considered done.

On the branches of the moon, this kind of remote mountain and old forest is supposed to be full of gloom, but the little guy didn't feel it at all. He listened to the master's words and kowtowed to each wooden tablet one by one, and finally arrived at the newly built one. At the grave, he knelt down meticulously and kowtowed three times!
Meng You didn't tell the little guy about his mother. He was still young, and Meng You didn't want the child to grow up with hatred.

In the village, the old man was playing chess with the little Taoist priest. However, the old man's chess skills seemed to be a bit bad. If he made a wrong move, he would start to play rogue with a loud voice. It must be that the little Taoist priest moved his chess pieces.The little Taoist priest had a wry smile on his face and could only turn a blind eye and let the old man regret his move.The old woman and Su Xiaotong were sitting in front of the door, looking at their old man acting like a child, and just smiled with satisfaction: "Men are all virtuous! No matter how old you are, there is always a bad boy hidden in your heart! "

The mother-in-law took Su Xiaotong's hand: "Girl, my mother-in-law thinks your husband is a good husband. He is just like my old man when he was young. He was always out of shape, but this kind of man has a good heart and knows how to love others."

Su Xiaotong looked at the old woman with a complicated expression. After a while, he just nodded lightly.

The old woman looked at Su Xiaotong, who was looking a little pale, and said with some distress: "Girl, it's really not easy to meet a man you like, but your body and bones are the most important, right? My mother-in-law has also gone through some detours before, damaging her road. Foundation is no joke, isn’t it the case with my mother-in-law that her whole life has gone by in the blink of an eye, and now that it’s here, won’t she not have a few good days left to live?”

Su Xiaotong looked at the old woman's kind face and asked with some unbearable sadness: "Mother-in-law, why don't you go back to Shushan?"

The old woman smiled and held Su Xiaotong's hand, and said calmly: "I only have three years left to live. Isn't it the same wherever I die? The roots of my old man are here. I met a good master back then. As he gets older and loses his temper, he just wants to return to his roots. He met his master here, and finally wants to pass on his skills here. If you get good luck, you have to pay it back. You can't live with debts in the next life. Bar?"

Su Xiaotong also never expected that this old woman living in seclusion here would be the senior of their Shushan witch clan!

When Su Xiaotong was changing clothes in the house, she discovered Shushan's clothes. The old woman didn't hide it, and revealed everything while cooking in the house.

"Since the death of our son, we two old guys have lost their spirits. After all, I am a mother. Without my son, I have no hope. So, my old man promised me that before he died, If you can meet a young man with the right temperament, regardless of qualifications or family background, just look at his character. Just pass on his martial arts skills. But after waiting for decades, only a few of you came to this remote place. , I would rather have the patience to chat with us two old guys for a few more words. This is enough, even if my old man doesn't say anything, he is also very happy in his heart!"

The old woman looked at Su Xiaotong, and the more she looked at her, the more she liked her: "Now that the son-in-law of Shushan has passed on his skills to us, he is not giving an advantage to outsiders, is he?"

"Mother-in-law, he is not."

"My mother-in-law knows that even if she has no cultivation, her eyes are still very vicious." The mother-in-law said softly: "That child must have suffered a lot, but he always thinks about others first. There are very few men like this. My mother-in-law’s vision of people over the years can’t be wrong.”

As he spoke, he saw the little guy sitting on Meng You's shoulder. The two of them, one big and one small, were jumping up and down, laughing and laughing all the way back.

Meng You still had the same temper. When he saw the old man playing chess with the little Taoist priest, he immediately went over to watch the fun. During this period, he also gave pointers from time to time. The angry old man blew his beard and glared, and almost beat him up!

Meng You rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and ran away immediately, holding a bench and sitting next to Su Xiaotong: "What are you talking about?"

Su Xiaotong looked at Meng You who was neither standing nor sitting, and said angrily: "We're talking about chicken legs!"

"Chicken legs?!" Meng You immediately became interested, "Why, you haven't eaten chicken drumsticks for a few days and you're already hungry? I'll go up the mountain tomorrow and hunt down two pheasants, just in time to satisfy my mother-in-law's craving!"

"Are you showing off?" Su Xiaotong was gentle with everyone, but he always had a bad expression towards him: "Who said I wanted to eat your roast chicken!"

"But you eat very clean every time!" Meng You smiled playfully, "I know, I know. If you want to eat, just say so. It's not like I won't get it for you!"

In terms of words, Su Xiaotong was no match for Meng You, so she could only give him a fierce look!
Meng You immediately shut his mouth and ran back to watch the two of them play chess.

The old woman looked at the two bickering people with a smile. All things in the world will eventually come down to each other!

The old man who was already confident of winning was suddenly put in a bad mood by this kid. He immediately took off his cloth shoes and prepared to fight!
Zhao Lixia on the side clapped his hands and shouted loudly, Master, come on!
