Chapter 21 The Old Man Pruning the Flowers and Plants
In the system of this world, those who have power in their hands are definitely better than those who have money in their hands.
Zhang Zhening finally knew why Fang Yiming was so good, but he didn't expect his background to be so powerful.
Then Sun Hui told Zhang Zhening that the reason why Fang Yiming is so good in this circle is that his family background is only one aspect, and the important thing is that Fang Yiming himself is also very smart and capable.
Otherwise, just relying on the family background, others may not be convinced, take their circle as an example, if Fang Yiming is not authentic, and he has no brains and no ability, everyone can't afford to mess with him, can't they hide?
Once excluded, this person's life in the circle will not be so easy.
Zhang Zhening listened to it with relish, these things he had never been exposed to before, but he didn't expect there to be so many doorways here.
At this time, Zhang Zhening inadvertently caught a glimpse of an elderly man dressed like a peasant, with a limp leg, limping when walking, and was holding a large pair of scissors to trim flowers and plants.
Zhang Zhening was a little puzzled, all the servants in Sun Hui's family were dressed very brightly and decently, but why was this old man so simple and lame?
However, Zhang Zhening didn't ask too much, he knew that in Sun Hui's circle, what he knew so far was still the tip of the iceberg, and some things were better not to ask more.
After the two had eaten, Sun Hui took Zhang Zhening for a walk around the garden, and after turning around, Zhang Zhening couldn't help but have a new question.
"Your family is so rich and so big, aren't you afraid that someone will think crookedly about your family?" asked Zhang Zhening.
Sun Hui said, "Of course there is, I was almost kidnapped when I was a child. ”
Then Zhang Zhening asked suspiciously, "But I turned around and found that except for the servants, why didn't a bodyguard look at you at home?"
After Sun Hui heard this, she smiled lightly, looked at Zhang Zhening and said, "Because you don't need to." ”
"Don't need it?" Zhang Zhening was confused.
Then Sun Hui pointed to the old man who was still pruning the flowers and plants not far away, and said, "Only Uncle Qin is here, and others don't want to beat my family's crooked idea." ”
Zhang Zhening turned his head and glanced at the old peasant-like old man, who didn't say a word from beginning to end, nor did he take the initiative to come up to greet Sun Hui, just carefully trimmed the flowers and plants.
But Zhang Zhening didn't understand how such an old man, with his legs still lame, could ......
Sun Hui saw Zhang Zhening's question and explained, "Don't look at Uncle Qin's appearance, he was fierce when he was young, even if he is old now, dozens of ordinary people can't get close to him, he had an accident, my dad paid to save him, he has been loyally following my dad, he has been in my house for more than 20 years, Uncle Qin was in my house when I was not born." ”
After listening to this, Zhang Zhening sighed in his heart, it turned out to be a master outside the world.
Then Sun Hui added, "Uncle Qin has a very strange temper, he doesn't like to talk on weekdays, and even my father is polite when he speaks to him." ”
"Oh. Zhang Zhening was thoughtful, and suddenly a thought flashed in his mind, this old man should be regarded as the top master of this time and space, and he doesn't know what kind of realm the top master of this time and space has reached, can he be as overwhelmed as a master of the other world?
After the two of them walked around the garden again, an old man dressed in Tang costume suddenly walked in from outside.
The old man has a childish face, a strong spirit, and a fairy temperament, and he is not a mortal at first glance.
"Grandpa!"
After Sun Hui saw the old man, he hurriedly trotted over, and affectionately held the old man's arm and said, "Grandpa, didn't you go to Grandpa Wang's house to play chess, why did you come back so quickly." ”
The old man looked at Sun Hui kindly, smiled, and said, "Your grandfather Wang is a stinky chess basket, and it's not interesting to play chess with him, so I'll come back early." ”
Then the old man saw Zhang Zhening next to him, and wondered, "This is ......"
"Oh, he's my friend, his name is Zhang Zhening. ”
Sun Hui looked at Zhang Zhening with a smile and said, "Zhening, this is my grandfather." ”
"Hello old man. Zhang Zhening politely greeted the old man.
"Well, hello, welcome to my house. The old man smiled, there was no frame at all, he looked warm and kind, giving people an indescribable comfort.
"Xiaohui, your friend is here, you have to entertain well, don't neglect the guest. ”
The old man smiled at Sun Hui and explained.
"Knowing grandpa, my friend is amazing, he plays the guqin very well, don't you say that my piano skills have made rapid progress during this time? It's all because of my friend's guidance, today I invited him to my home, just to let him teach me some guqin techniques. Sun Hui said with a smile.
After hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and he looked at Zhang Zhening and said, "You also know how to play the guqin?"
Zhang Zhening nodded with a smile and said humbly, "It will be a little bit." ”
"Well, the one who can guide my granddaughter is definitely not a mortal, Xiaohui's guqin technique was passed on to her by me, but there are some flaws, even I don't know how to solve it, I didn't expect it to be solved by you, it's really terrifying!" the old man praised from the bottom of his heart.
Sun Hui's guqin technique was taught by him, but later Sun Huiqing was better than the blue out of the blue, and he played better than himself, so the old man couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he learned that Sun Hui was a teenager about the same age as Sun Hui.
"The old man has won the award, and Sun Hui and I are learning from each other. Zhang Zhening smiled and said modestly.
"Well, good, good, the future is terrifying, the future world is yours!"
The old man looked a little happy, "Xiaohui, treat you as a friend, tell me what you need, I'll study the chess game for a while." ”
"Well, grandpa, you are busy with your going, leave us alone, I will definitely treat Zhening well. ”
Then, Sun Hui took Zhang Zhening to the instrumental music room and began to discuss some techniques about the guqin.
During this period, Sun Hui once again mentioned the 24-string guqin that Zhang Zhening once told her, and asked Zhang Zhening, "Is there really a 20-string guqin in the world?"
Zhang Zhening nodded and said, "There should be, but I don't know if there is a ...... in this time and space."
Halfway through speaking, Zhang Zhening suddenly felt that he was a little speechless, and hurriedly said, "I mean this thing is quite precious, and I don't know if there are any of them now." ”
Sun Hui said, "I'll ask my grandfather to help me inquire, if I really can't find it, then there is no way." ”
Zhang Zhening smiled, "Then don't be disappointed, if you really can't find it, I'll take the time to make it for you." ”
"Really!" Sun Hui's two big watery eyes suddenly lit up, "You can also make guqin?"
"Uh...... I've learned a little ......" Zhang Zhening found that he had lost his words again.
Then Zhang Zhening continued to instruct Sun Hui to play the piano, and when he saw that Sun Hui had almost mastered the heat, he asked Sun Hui to continue to practice, and slowly comprehend and feel, any technique must be polished with countless sweat and hard work, there is no shortcut to this, even the talented Sun Hui is no exception.
"Zhening, I'll practice here for an hour first, if you feel bored, just go out and walk around, my parents are doing business abroad, except for the servants and Uncle Qin at home, just me and grandpa, you can treat it as your own home." ”
Sun Hui saw that Zhang Zhening was a little bored standing next to him alone, so she hurriedly said.
Zhang Zhening didn't have any ink, nodded and said hello to Sun Hui, and walked out alone and took a walk in the garden.
Seeing that the lame Uncle Qin was still seriously pruning the flowers and plants, Zhang Zhening thought that he was okay anyway, so he stepped forward to help.
"Uncle Qin, do you need help?" Zhang Zhening asked politely.
Uncle Qin, on the other hand, didn't speak as if he hadn't heard, and continued to prune the flowers and plants seriously.
Zhang Zhening didn't ask again, he leaned down, gathered the pruned branches and leaves into a pile, and then picked them up and threw them into the trash.
In this way, Uncle Qin was pruning in front, and Zhang Zhening was always following behind to clean up the pruned branches and leaves.
Half an hour later, Uncle Qin finally pruned the flowers and plants, and Zhang Zhening saw that the work was done, and he was about to leave.
How do you know that Uncle Qin suddenly said, "You come with me." ”
Zhang Zhening felt a little surprised, glanced around, and made sure that Uncle Qin was really talking to him, and then followed Uncle Qin to the side of the fish pond.
Uncle Qin didn't speak, squatted next to the fish pond, sprinkled feed into the fish pond, and the fish immediately churned.
Zhang Zhening stood silently behind Uncle Qin and didn't speak.
After a long time, Uncle Qin put down the feed in his hand, slowly took out a pack of inferior cigarettes that cost two yuan a pack and did not have a filter from his arms, and said without replying, "Do you smoke?"
"Well, thank you, Uncle Qin. Zhang Zhening has no addiction to smoking, but after frequent contact with the hedgehog head, he also smokes one occasionally.
Uncle Qin lit it unhurriedly, and then smoked it one by one, while Zhang Zhening didn't light a cigarette, just took the cigarette in his hand and stood quietly behind Uncle Qin.
After a while, Uncle Qin suddenly spoke, "What are you doing?" ”
Zhang Zhening was stunned for a moment, not knowing why the other party suddenly asked this question, but he still answered truthfully, "I am a student, studying in the third and fifth classes of the city's No. 2 High School. ”
"Have you ever been a soldier or have you ever fought?" Uncle Qin suddenly asked a clueless sentence.
Zhang Zhening, on the other hand, was at a loss, why did he become a soldier and fight? Now that this is an era of peace, where is there a war to fight?
But he still said truthfully, "No, my family depends on me and me, I was in the countryside from elementary school to junior high school, and I came to the city in high school." ”
Uncle Qin didn't reply, but lit another cigarette, and after a few puffs, he suddenly said, "You lied." ”
Zhang Zhening was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "What I said is true. ”
Uncle Qin kept his back to Zhang Zhening from beginning to end, shook his head lightly and said, "Then can you explain why you, a person who has never been a soldier or fought a war, have such a strong murderous aura on your body?"
After finishing speaking, before Zhang Zhening could react, Uncle Qin suddenly turned his head, looked at Zhang Zhening's eyes and said, "And I'm sure that there are not one or two lives in your hands, say, what are you doing!"
