"Diligence can make up for clumsiness! Yu Mu, you should work hard!"

A handsome young man with smiling eyes and plainly dressed, shaking a folding fan in his hand, stood outside the courtyard wall and shouted at Yu Mutou.

Yu Mutou stopped his movements, and after slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, his whole body became much more relaxed, and then he looked at the elegant young man outside the wall.

The young man's name is Yuan Hongqian, the same age as Yu Mutou, but the former is not only handsome in life, but also has a much wealthy family, and Yu Mutou is completely from two worlds.

"I'm here to inform you of something. ”

"Sir said that these days there will be some businessmen who come to the village to look for treasures, and you should not provoke them. He also said that they would choose a few young people with good fists and kicks to take out of the village. Sir, let me tell you that there will be a martial arts competition in the school in three days, and if you want to go out, you can come and participate, maybe someone will take a fancy to you and take you out. ”

"I see, thank you. Yu Mutou replied in a deep voice.

Looking at Yu Mutou, who looked calm, the corners of Yuan Hongqian's mouth slightly hooked an arc, and he smiled, "No thanks, I advise you not to participate, so as not to ask for hardship! ”

The scoundrel in Yuan Hongqian's mouth is Lu Gui, he doesn't deal with Yu Mutou, and the whole academy knows it.

Yu Mutou smiled lightly, his expression was still calm, and he said again, "Thank you for the reminder." ”

"Brother Wood, didn't you go out to pick up the treasure?" a thin and slightly immature boy hurried from not far away, still holding a pile of fallen branches from the old elm tree in his arms, and stood outside the courtyard wall with his feet on his feet and shouted at Yu Mu.

The boy's name is Fu Qing, and he is Yu Mutou's neighbor, and the two have an excellent relationship.

Yu Mutou was a little puzzled, and he asked rhetorically, "What kind of treasure are you picking up?"

"It's a mess of everything, I heard it fell from the sky. Someone else has picked up gold! You see I picked up a few beads that are not round in the middle of winter, and they are still hot!" Fu Qing turned his head to look at the silent Yuan Hongqian on the side, and pouted at the latter, "Na, the fan in his hand was also picked up." ”

Yuan Hongqian shook the folding fan in his hand very cooperatively, nodded at Yu Mutou, and agreed.

"Then how did you run back?"

Fu Qing pouted and said, "Everyone around the village has been searched, and they all ran to the farther mountain, I thought there should be nothing good, so I came back... Actually, I was too slow to grab them, so I just picked up some branches that I had broken from the old tree last night to use as firewood. ”

"That's right, by the way, can you give me the thicker one, it's a pity to burn it. I promised my husband to make a new bookshelf, which should be usable, and I could make you a slingshot where the front fork is. ”

"Really, okay!" Fu Qing smiled instantly, ran back to the next door with a cigarette, and then picked up the thickest branch and ran back.

"My words are brought, to participate or not to participate, you choose. However, let me tell you, Lu Gui's practice is called Seven Injuries Boxing, you had better be careful if you participate!" Yuan Hongqian looked at Yu Mutou with a smile after speaking, which seemed to mean that he wanted the latter to retreat.

"Seven Wounds Fist! Is it a seven-wound fist that can kill a cow with one punch? No wonder this villain Lu Gui is becoming more and more arrogant! Hmph, Mr. is really eccentric!" Fu Qing sneered, he dropped the wooden branch, and pinched his waist with both hands, and was extremely angry. In fact, Fu Qing has long hated this Lu Gui, who is extremely arrogant and domineering because of his family's wealth, and everyone in the village knows it. And everyone knows that he and Yu Mutou have always been at odds, as for why?

Fu Qing reminded on the side, "Brother Mu, I know about the competition, and what Mr. said was all voluntary." ”

In fact, Yu Mutou is not interested in fighting with martial arts, but what interests him is the word baby. It's not that Yu Mutou is greedy for money, because he suspects that the treasure that these people came to buy is the treasure that Master Lu said, if this is the case, he doesn't want to miss it.

Yu Mutou was thinking about it when a soft girl's voice came from not far away.

"Hmph, it's just a Lu Gui, what are you afraid of him doing?"

Chu Li's white-clothed Sheng Xue was extremely charming, and she saw her walk towards Yu Mutou, stretched out her hand like clotted fat and handed the latter something, and said, "Na!"

Yu Mutou frowned, looked at a palm-sized cloth bag embroidered with exquisite patterns in Chu Li's hand, and asked strangely, "What?"

There was also Yuan Hongqian outside the courtyard with an ugly face, he was originally very happy to see Chu Li coming, but when he saw Chu Li taking the initiative to give Yu Mu something, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he asked with a straight face, "Chu Li, what are you doing?"

Chu Li glanced at Yuan Hongqian with disdain, ignored it, and continued to Yu Mutou: "How do I know what is it? This was just found by the wall of your house, and now I will return it to you." ”

"It's not mine!"

"Then it's none of my business. It's not yours, it's not mine, but it's in your territory, so you should keep it first, and if the owner of the thing comes to find it, you can return it to him. Maybe they'll even give you a gift. After speaking, Chu Li forcibly stuffed the cloth bag into Yu Mutou's hand.

Without waiting for Yu Mu to speak, Chu Li smiled lightly, leaned closer and continued, "If that Lu Gui dares to do bad, I will break his arm!" So you don't have to pay attention to him, just go and participate if you want to." ”

Chu Li's words fell, and he turned directly to Yuan Hongqian, said coldly, 'Troublesome', and then left.

Yuan Hongqian's face turned red, he knew that Yu Mutou had a good relationship with Chu Li, but he never thought that Chu Li would be so faceless today, glaring at the things in Yu Mutou's hand, Yuan Hongqian followed and turned around and strode away.

Fu Qing stared at Yu Mutou with a thief's eyes, "Brother Mu, do you like Chu Li too?"

"Why do you ask?"

"You took her... A token of love?"

"I didn't want it..."Yu Mutou looked at the thing in his hand, crying and laughing, because how this thing looked like a girl's object, like a token between men and women.

"But it's already in your hands! I know that Yuan Hongqian likes Chu Li, Lu Gui also likes her, and my mother also said that Chu Li's eyes can hook people, but it is not easy to marry her as a wife, at least she has to pass the level of her grandmother Ma Granny first. Granny Ma said that she had to marry Chu Li first and give the bride price she wanted, 300 acres of land, 30 cows, and a new house. ”

"So much!?"

"yes. Brother Mu, is she really that good? If you like her, you have to think carefully. I think the laurel girl is good, although she is a little fatter, but she is very kind. What do you think, Brother Wood? My mother also asked me to chop the firewood, and I have to go home first. ”

Yu Mutou looked at Fu Qing, who ran home in a hurry, shook his head and smiled. If you want to say that this is paid off, Yu Mutou doesn't admire anything else, just admire his gushing mouth, and he talks about the short things of the Li family, the Zhang family in the village, which is very similar to his mother Chunxiang's aunt.

Yu Mutou frowned, casually threw the delicate small cloth bag into the house and continued to practice boxing, but this time he was a little absent-minded.

For Chu Li, Yu Mutou doesn't like it but cares. Because in his heart, Chu Li is one of his best friends.

Chu Li has been very strange since he was a child, and he always changes his method to send Yu Mu some things, and he has everything to eat. and found all kinds of inexplicable reasons, but Yu Mutou couldn't refuse, and let him accept it.

For example, this time, Yu Mutou was a little unpredictable.

But then again, if it weren't for Chu Li's help, Yu Mutou didn't even know if he would have survived.

As for Granny Ma in Fu Qing's mouth, Yu Mutou knows her very well. In the temple village, Granny Ma has a very high 'status', and everyone is afraid of her. When the mouth touches up and down, it can say that the black is white, and the dead are alive! If there is a quarrel, no one in the whole village can scold her, and even if there is a fight, the young woman is not necessarily her opponent.

However, Yu Mutou has always believed that Granny Ma is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, which is powerful on the surface, but in fact she is reckless. It is said that his son and daughter-in-law both fell off the cliff in the early years, and it was not easy for her to support a family by herself, and pull Chu Li to grow up. Because of this, Yu Mutou respects Granny Ma very much, and it seems that it is precisely because of this respect that Granny Ma's attitude towards Yu Mutou is different from that towards other people in the village.

And at the moment, what makes Yu Mutou wonder the most is that the outsiders who want to come to the village to exchange treasures these days, do they have anything to do with what Master Lu said?

After a few punches, the boy was sweating.

After washing, the boy held up a portrait that had been placed on the table with both hands.

This is painted by Mr. Qin of the school, and the painting is the ancient legendary god of martial arts, which is said to be very effective.

There were not a few statues of the God of Wealth, and most of them were invited away by a few wealthy families in the village. And the one in Yu Mutou's hand was obtained in exchange for a new set of bookshelves that he promised.

Yu Mutou respectfully hung the statue of the God of Wealth on the wall, and after placing the wine offerings, Yu Mutou lit incense and knelt down.

The mouth is still learning the broken thoughts that he learned from his mother when he was a child.

The God of Wealth, the God of Fortune, the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth, enters the house.

An God of Wealth, Shun God of Wealth, An An Shun Shun... An An Shun Shun protects his family.

... ...

This aroused the curiosity of the white cat outside the door, and he saw it squatting with its head tilted, looking at the boy intently.

"Dad!Mother!Wood invited the God of Wealth this year... You guys..."

The young man's voice began to become a little lonely, and a touch of melancholy slowly climbed up his cheeks, and the whole room seemed to become extremely sad at this moment.

"Dad, mother, how are you now?"

"The little wood is very good! Mr. Qin of the school is very good to the little wood, and Aunt Chunxiang next door is also very good to the little wood, but Master Lu passed away a few years ago..."
