Another weekend, Long Dan drove a car, took his wife Chen Ying, and son Long Xu back to his father's house in Longjiawan. Every time he returned to his hometown, Long Dan's father was very enthusiastic, just like entertaining relatives, not like entertaining his own children. Every time Long Dan went home, the old father was killing chickens and geese to serve him, which made Long Dan very uncomfortable. Long Dan has also said many times that his father, don't do this to yourself, and he is not an outsider. My father always smiled and said, "You have only come home a few times, we are usually reluctant to eat, you are back, we also use you to fight tooth sacrifices, to relieve hunger", Long Dan knew that his father was good at wine, but he was always reluctant to spend more money, and sometimes he could drink a few sips of pickles. Every time Long Dan went home, he left some money for his father, and it is estimated that his father saved it.

Long Dan can cook, and he does it very well, so he was afraid that his father would be busy, so he started to do it. When he was almost done, he sent Chen Ying to call his two elder brothers over, and when he went home this time, he had to talk to his two elder brothers.

Long Dan has three elder brothers, the eldest brother was taken down because of his superbirth, and the secretary was taken down, so he worked as a farmer at home, and did some business by the way, and his life was not bad. The second brother also quit his job in the city because he took care of the family, and now he has taken over the position of the eldest brother's secretary and became the village party secretary. A few years ago, the third brother died because of the explosion of the city's fertilizer factory, leaving a girl. The third sister-in-law was young and not easy to be widowed, so she remarried, and the wife of the director of the police station in the town, Li, fell ill and died, so the third sister-in-law married him, and the family's house was also sold to a family. The third brother's branch disappeared in Longjiawan.

Since the death of Long Dan's third brother, Long Dan also felt the importance of friendship between brothers, and the anger when he separated from the family before was gone, and he gradually got in touch with the two elder brothers. Although, there are still a little pimples, after all, they are brothers of a mother. The relationship between the three brothers is much better than before.

After the meal, Long Dan's eldest brother Long Wen said: "Fourth, your second brother and I heard about you, I wanted to see you, and I knew that you were uncomfortable, so I didn't bother you, you won't blame, right?" "The past is over, not to mention that I don't have much to do, it's just that I lost some money" Long Dan then said to the second brother: "Second brother, I came back this time, there is indeed something wrong, I want to buy a piece of land in our Longjiawan, I don't know if it's okay?" "Buying land? What to do when buying land? Nowadays, the common people are reluctant to farm and want to go to the city, but you come to buy land? The second brother Long Hua said puzzled. Long Dan said: "Second brother, that's the case, I want to buy some land in our Longjiawan and build a fish farm, I don't know if it can be done" Long Hua said happily: "It's not good to buy land, and we don't have this saying in the countryside, you can rent land, and it's okay for a longer time." There is a piece of wasteland in the south of our village, about 100 acres, if you don't dislike it, you can rent it", Longhua is worthy of being the village party secretary, and knows the situation in the village well.

Long Dan's father interjected and asked Long Dan: "You live well in the city, why do you go back to the village?" Long Dan explained: "I did business in the past few years, and I did make some money, and I have seen through it in the past few years, too much money is useless, I want to build a fish farm at home, not to make much money, just to make a meal." In the future, I will live with you, and it will be easier to take care of you."

Long Hua said: "Fourth, are you XJ Qing once, or do you pay rent every year?" Long Dan didn't think about it, so he said: "An XJ love is the best, and the time is best for 70 years", "Then leave it to me to handle it, and I will do it for you within a week, and you can just pay the money" Long Hua said. Long Dan also knew that the village was not very wealthy, and every village party secretary tried to change his way to get some subsidies for the village. This time, Long Dan rented the land for 70 years at one time, which can be regarded as a great help to the village.

A week later, Long Dan got the contract from the village, 120 acres of land, 70 years lease, a total of 200,000. Long Dan paid the money, signed and pledged, and more than 100 acres of land in the south of Longjiawan Village became Long Dan's.

After getting the land, Long Dan hired someone to do the surveying, drew the drawings, bought two second-hand bulldozers, hired two drivers, and built according to the drawings.

Three months later, more than 100 acres of land in Longdan were organized into four ponds of different sizes, the large one was more than 30 acres, and the small one was 5.6 acres in size. Long Dan carried poplar trees around the pond, and in the gap between the poplar trees, Long Dan bought bamboo seedlings at a high price and planted them. He also built a yard beside the pond, and planted thorns and pepper trees around the pond as courtyard walls. A decent manor was built like this, and Long Dan also checked the dictionary for a long time and named his manor "Cuifeng Garden".

Long Dan knows how to fish is not the same as raising fish, Long Dan had to buy a lot of breeding books, and went to visit the provincial fish farm, and consulted a number of masters. When the pond was filled with water, the cultivation of Longdan came to fruition. It is no less than the veteran of the farm, and after half a year, all kinds of fish in various ponds are growing well. Long Dan couldn't help but be at ease when he looked at the fish swimming around in the pond. From time to time, I drank Longjing under the grape trellis in front of the house, read novels, or walked the mountains with three or two fellow villagers who came to visit the house, and lived a petty bourgeois pastoral life.

In autumn, the weather is getting cooler, and the carp and grass carp farmed by Longdan have grown fat and thick. Long Dan caught dozens of catties with fishing nets and came to the nearby market to sell fish. Long Dan sells fish, but it is different from other fishmongers, Long Dan just wants to have fun, and he doesn't look like a fish seller, like a scholar.

Long Dan's fish hadn't been sold out yet, but I saw Long Dan's second brother come over, Long Hua hurriedly walked up to Long Dan and said: "Fourth, don't sell it, go home quickly, your master is here" "My master?" Long Dan was shocked, his master had left Yunyou since he was admitted to university, and he didn't know the news, and it had been more than ten years. Long Dan hurriedly picked up the unsold fish, put it on a tricycle, and rode home with his second brother.

Long Dan came to his Cuifeng Garden, and saw an old man sitting under the grape trellis in front of the door, who was his master, Long Dan came to the old man in three steps and two steps, and called out "Master", and the tears in his eyes flowed down. After crying for a while, Long Dan asked: "Master, where have you been all these years, but I have been looking forward to you", the old man said kindly: "Don't cry, didn't I come, my body is still strong, you don't have to worry" The old man paused, and said to Long Dan: "It's you, I'm very worried, you haven't been good all these years, right?" Have you ever put down kung fu? Long Dan heard the master talk about kung fu, and said embarrassedly: "I didn't put it down, but I didn't care, I only cared about doing business over the years, and basically there was not much progress" "I know this, you are still obsessed with the glory of these worldly worlds, it is no wonder that there are still a few people who are not laymen in this society now" The old man said with emotion.

Long Dan looked at the master and asked, "Master, you came back this time, won't you leave?" ”

The old man said: "I still have to go, but this time I have to stay longer, first, I have some things for you to deal with, and secondly, I will help you take the kung fu you have learned a step further."

The arrival of the old man completely changed Long Dan's life. In addition to doing some necessary things in the manor during the day, Long Dan practiced with the old man in his spare time. Since Long Dan hadn't practiced much in the past ten years, his kung fu was not very sophisticated. Long Dan didn't know how deep his kung fu was.

Long Dan asked puzzledly: "Master, what is this kung fu I practiced like in the end?" The old man groaned and said, "I don't know how deep it is," and then asked Long Dan, "Long Dan, you should know how old I am, right?" "Long Dan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the master ask this question, he really didn't know how old the master was, he only remembered that when he was a child, the old man was over 90 years old." Master, you're over 120 years old, aren't you? Long Dan asked, the old man smiled: "Yes, I am more than 120 years old, although I am at this age, my body is not old at all, how deep do you say I taught you to practice this kung fu?" Hearing this, Long Dan shook his head blankly.

The old man said again: "Long Dan, I tell you, in fact, the longevity of our kung fu is only a small function. Practicing to the depths is to open the eyes of the heavens, and going further is to open up the divine sense. However, I myself have not practiced to the point of opening the eyes of heaven, let alone opening up my divine sense. I see that your appearance is strange, and there will be no limit to the future. Therefore, being a teacher does not force you to practice, but allows you to develop freely. Our kung fu is to pay attention to the image of the law and the world, the qi of nature, and the qiē is in line with nature. The pursuit is a matter of course. You can't ask for it. See, your days are still long, and the tribulations of the world are not over. When you really understand, the kung fu I teach you can go to the next level."

Long Dan did all the things arranged by the old man, and the old man pointed out the problems in Long Dan's practice, and in this way, Long Dan and the old man passed two months unconsciously.

As soon as the old man proposed to leave, Long Dan's tears fell again, and Long Dan was also worried that the old man was getting old and wanted to keep the old man in his own home to enjoy his old age. But the old man was determined to leave, and said: "Long Dan, you also know the character of the master, in your place, I know that you will take care of me, but I don't enjoy my life, I still travel all over the world, while I can still walk around, it is also a kind of practice." We'll see you again. Don't embarrass the master." Long Dan saw that he couldn't keep the master, and he was helpless, so he left by the master, and this departure was more than ten years, until Long Dan suffered a lot and completely realized that the master appeared in front of him.
