By the afternoon when Shen Xi came back from school, the house was basically cleaned up.

Zhou used the money from Shen Xi's paintings to buy new sheets and bedding, but they were prepared for Dai'er, in addition to the sheets and bedding, there was also a small pillow, which was now hung in the yard.

The air in Fujian and Zhejiang was humid, and the things at home were very easy to get wet, so Zhou took advantage of the good sun to take out the old sheets and bedding to dry, and the patio was full of flowers.

"Where's my mother?"

Shen Xi searched for several houses, but he didn't see Zhou's, so he couldn't help but ask Lin Dai, who was sitting in front of the door holding her cheeks in a daze.

Lin Dai came back to her senses, her pretty face showed a lovely smile, reflecting the sunshine very delicately, she pointed to the courtyard on the left and right: "My mother went to visit the door, saying that she was visiting the neighbors, and she should come back in a while." ”

When you settle down in a new place, you naturally have to build good relationships with your neighbors.

Shen Xi thought to himself that the old lady was really smart, distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors, once something happened, relatives living far away could not be counted on at all, or neighbors could help.

"You wait at home, I'll be out for a while and I'll be back."

Shen Xi ran out of the house as soon as he slipped through the smoke, and he thought about going back to the old yard to transfer his things.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the old courtyard, I saw Wang Lingzhi sitting on the threshold of the open door, sullenly drawing something on the ground with stones.

"Why?"

Shen Xi walked up and asked.

When Wang Lingzhi heard Shen Xi's voice, he raised his head in surprise: "Senior brother, I can be regarded as seeing you." I'm worried that you'll move away quietly, and I don't know where to find you! ”

Shen Xi didn't expect this kid to actually think about him.

Originally, I just used Wang Lingzhi to get some pen, ink, paper, and inkstone back to facilitate painting, who wanted to be a good friend after a long time, and now I want to panic when I don't see it for a moment.

"Haven't I come back? You go in and get me something, and I'll take you to the door later." ”

"Senior brother's business is my business."

Wang Lingzhi was quite righteous, got up and went into the courtyard to help Shen Xi carry things, at this time Steward Liu happened to come over to collect the house, and it was a little strange to see the two little guys together.

"Young Master, what are you doing here?" Steward Liu watched his young master talking to Changgong's son affectionately, holding a lot of things in his hand, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Oh...... Steward Liu, I'm here to find my friend to practice calligraphy together, if there's nothing to do, let's go first. ”

Wang Lingzhi didn't want to talk to Steward Liu more, so he casually said a perfunctory word, picked up the cloth bag containing rice paper and pen and ink, and left the courtyard behind Shen Xi.

When the two came to the corner of the street where the pharmacy was located, Shen Xi was suddenly worried that the old lady had gone home, and it was difficult to explain the way with these things at hand, so he pondered to find a place to hide.

"Senior brother, I thought about it, it's not appropriate to move things to my new home, do you have a good place to hide?" Shen Xi looked at Wang Lingzhi, who was running out of breath.

Wang Lingzhi thought for a while and said, "Why don't you take it to my house?" ”

Seeing Shen Xi shaking his head, Wang Lingzhi suddenly smiled, "I remembered a good place...... There are two dilapidated houses behind my ancestral hall, and my father said that it used to be a pig house, but then it was abandoned when no one managed it, and no one went to the dirty one, so how about we put things there? ”

Shen Xi gave a thumbs up: "Senior brother, you are getting smarter and smarter, let's hide things there." ”

Wang Lingzhi was praised by Shen Xi twice, and he was suddenly fluttering.

After helping Shen Xi hide his things, Wang Lingzhi followed Shen Xi to Shen Xi's new house, at this time, Zhou happened to come out of the neighbor's house, and when he saw Shen Xi, he scolded:

"You dead boy, if you don't come home after school, where did you go?" Suddenly, seeing a teenager of the same age behind Shen Xi, Zhou suddenly changed into a smile, "Han Wa'er, whose child is this?" ”

"Mother, this is my classmate, and I will often come to play at home in the future."

Zhou smiled: "Okay, good, it's good to get closer to your classmates...... Good boy, come here often in the future, just treat this as your own home. ”

Wang Lingzhi was not very accustomed to Zhou's enthusiasm, he leaned into Shen Xi's ear and whispered: "Your mother is so fierce...... Forget it, next time your mother is not at home, I will come to my senior brother to teach martial arts. ”

After saying that, he turned around and ran.

When Zhou entered the courtyard, he asked strangely: "Why did the kid leave when he saw me, and he didn't come in to sit?" ”

Shen Xi smiled and pulled Zhou's skirt: "Mother, you scolded me so fiercely and scared my classmates away." ”

Zhou was stunned, but his face was full of disdain: "It's a natural thing for my mother to scold my son, what's the matter, don't let my mother scold you?" Even if you really have a chance in the future, if you win the champion, your mother will still scold you. ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "If I win the champion, then my mother will be Mrs. Destiny, and my mother will scold me as much as she wants." ”

"The children's family still understands Mrs. Command, should you sing on the stage?"

Zhou's mouth was unforgiving, but his heart was happy, and he yearned: "It would be good if there was really that day." Go, go in and bow to the old gentleman, and pray to the Bodhisattva to bless his old man with a hundred years of life, and then bless your boy from illness and disaster in the future. ”

In the main hall of the house is a wooden tablet with no words on it. Shen Xi pointed to the tablet and looked at Zhou: "Mother, it's empty." ”

"My mother is illiterate, how can I write it? When you have a chance in the future, you will see the old gentleman again and know his name, and you will write it yourself. What to see! Hurry up and ...... Didn't let you stand, quickly kowtow, three rings, the first thing when you come back from school every day is to worship the old man, if you don't worship one day, see how the old lady cleans you up! ”

Shen Xi was embarrassed in his heart, it was too embarrassing to kowtow to a person who never existed, and not to fall every day in the future.

In the evening, Zhou went to Wang's house, because Shen Mingjun didn't know where her new home was, and she had to lead the way.

In the evening, the family gathered together and happily made the first meal after moving to a new house, the meal had just been put on the table, and Hui Niang's mother and daughter came to visit with gifts.

Hui Niang's youngest daughter's name is Xi'er, cute is cute, but cute and ignorant, always staring at Shen Xi with big eyes when eating.

After eating, Huiniang's mother and daughter were sent away, and the family was ready to sleep.

Shen Xi and Lin Dai originally slept in the same room, but now that the conditions in the house are good, the Zhou family let the future daughter-in-law live in a room alone, but there is only one door from Shen Xi's room.

"Go to bed early and read in the morning every day...... Mother heard that those promising children have to get up early to read aloud, Han Wa'er, you can't be lazy, you know? ”

Shen Xi stuck out his tongue.

Lin Dai was very aggrieved, originally Zhou said that Shen Xi would learn to write and then teach her, but recently there were many things at home, and Zhou took her to learn needlework every day, and never mentioned teaching her to read.

Waiting for Zhou to go back to the room with the oil lamp, Shen Xi stood behind the curtain at the door, looked at Lin Dai who was cleaning up the bed under the moonlight, and said with a smile: "Dai'er, I heard some stories from my husband, can I tell you?" ”

Lin Dai looked back, nodded hurriedly, and came to Shen Xi's room wearing clogs and slippers.

The two sat down on the edge of the bed, and Shen Xi smiled: "My story is wonderful." ”

"What kind of story, I don't believe it's so good."

Shen Xi had a smug smile on his face, but he told his story seriously: "I'm talking about a scholar rushing to take the exam......

"A scholar is a scholar, and he can enter Beijing to take the exam, which means that he has obtained the qualification of a student and has passed the township examination. One night he went to a wilderness and saw many graves in front of him...... Do you know what a grave mound? ”

Lin Dai's face had become a little pale, and her body trembled slightly, but she still had a hard mouth: "The grave is the place where the dead are buried, what's so strange." ”

"Yes, it's not surprising that it's a place to bury the dead. It was getting late, and there happened to be a ruined temple next to the mound, and behind the temple was a wood. ”

"The scholar had no place to stay, so he lived in the temple. He was alone, and at night the wind whined, and the treetops made a 'whoosh' sound, which gave goosebumps all over his body. The scholar had no distractions, lit the candlestick, ate some dry food and studied seriously, until in the middle of the night, someone suddenly knocked on the door......"

"Knock, knock, knock."

Shen Xi knocked the bed board three times, and Lin Dai, who was listening seriously, shouted "wow".
