Over there, Xu A-Niang said that she coaxed the sensitive little girl to obey, and here Chengzhi Cheng'an had already caught up with the group of people who went up the mountain first.

Following everyone, it is easy to find the place where the body is, Cheng Zhi saw the bloody corpse from afar, and instinctively wanted to cover his brother's eyes, but he didn't expect Cheng An to break free from his hand and run away while he was not paying attention.

Cheng Zhi was a little annoyed for a while, "Cheng An ......"

Cheng An grinned and reassured, "Big brother, isn't it just a corpse, we have seen a lot of beast corpses, are you still afraid of this?" ”

Cheng Zhi is a little helpless, Cheng An has always been mischievous, and he doesn't let himself worry at this time, he is just ten years old, what can he do to let himself do it? Is that a beast corpse? That's a human corpse!

But seeing his younger brother who has walked away, even if Cheng Zhi doesn't want Cheng An to see it, Cheng An has already seen it, forget it, let him go, he should grow up and be sensible!

For Lang Zhong's grandfather's corpse, the two of them are not fake, of course they can't see anything, but Lang Zhong's grandfather's death is not as miserable as Aunt Lin said, and on the surface, there are no knife wounds and arrow wounds on the body, and everyone estimates that they fell off the cliff.

Together with the sad son of Grandpa Langzhong, everyone carried Grandpa Langzhong's body back, and Chengzhi listened to Grandpa Langzhong's words and went to the top of the cliff to investigate, and Cheng'an followed.

"Big brother, did you find anything?" Cheng An asked worriedly, at this time, the mountain road was still not very easy to walk, and the soles of their feet slipped several times when they came up just now.

Chengzhi shook his head.

There were indeed traces of slipping on the soles of the feet on the top of the cliff, and for a while, the two of them could no longer see anything and chose to return to the village.

The village has already asked a servant to inspect Langzhong's grandfather's body, but as everyone said, it was just an ordinary cliff fall.

But Chengzhi Cheng'an's heart is still not easy, what is the reason why Grandpa Langzhong entered the mountain shortly after the rain, is it really because of collecting medicine? Anyone with a bit of experience understands how dangerous it is to go up at such a time, and why stick to it in that case.

Is it really a simple fall off a cliff to your death?

No matter what the reason is, they don't know now, after returning home, Xu A-Niang has already boiled water and waited for them to wash away the bad luck, as for the matter of Langzhong's grandfather, it didn't take long for no one to mention it again.

Because the new master is coming, when he is not busy, Cheng Zhi takes Cheng An to review his studies together, so as to prepare for the new master's random inspection.

In the evening of this day, when Cheng Zhi was reading a book, the door of Xu's house was knocked again, Cheng Zhi put down the book and went out to greet the guests, it turned out to be the son of the village chief and Cheng Zhi's former classmate, Xu Wen.

Seeing Xu Wen, Cheng Zhi faintly had some guesses in his heart, "Awen, why are you here?" ”

Xu Wen said with a smile, "The new master introduced by Master Fang has arrived, and Daddy asked me to call you over." ”

"Me?" Chengzhi was puzzled, the new master arrived, what did the village chief tell him to do? Did you just call yourself, or did all the school-age students in the village call them over?

Thinking so, Cheng Zhi also asked.

Xu Wen explained, "Daddy is because you work hard in your studies on weekdays and are praised by Master Fang, so I asked me to call you over to get to know the new master first." ”

I have to say that in fact, Xu Wen was also a little depressed in his heart, he asked himself that he used to work very hard, why he never heard Daddy praise himself twice.

At this time, Xu A-Niang and Xu Cheng'an, who had already come out, also heard Xu Wen's words, and suddenly felt a burst of joy in their hearts, and Cheng'an urged again and again, "Big brother, what are you still doing in a daze?" Go ahead! ”

Although it is indeed a good thing to have the care of the village chief, but Xu A-Niang also has to consider the conditions of the family, the two children can still help the family before the new master comes, but after the new master arrives, Xu A-Niang has to consider taking out a part of the money as a bondage to send the children to school, although the conditions of her own family are more difficult, but Xu A-Niang can't bear to delay her son's future.

Xu A-Niang took advantage of Cheng Zhi and Xu Wen's conversation to go into the kitchen and take out the rabbit meat that was left before, so that Cheng Zhi remembered to bring it to the village chief and the new master.

Xu Wen saw the things that Xu A-Niang took out and hurriedly said, "Auntie, you don't need to bring it to us, Cheng Zhi sent a little to the family two days ago, and I haven't finished eating it yet." ”

Xu A-Niang shook her head slightly and said, "Without the help of the village chief, our family would not have a good life today, and now we have survived the difficulties compared to previous years, no matter what, we have to thank the village chief, let Ah Zhi, take it!" ”

Cheng Zhi took the rabbit meat handed over by A-Niang and said to Xu Wen, "Let's go over quickly, don't let the master wait!" ”

Even Cheng Zhi, who has always been calm, was a little nervous at this time, and Cheng Zhi, who had not entered the school for a long time, was really a little worried that if the new master wanted to inquire about himself, if he couldn't answer, wouldn't it disappoint the village chief who tried his best to help him and the aunt who had high hopes for him.

When he entered the village chief's house, there was a bearded man sitting in the main hall chatting with the village chief, and when he saw Cheng Zhi entering, the village chief hurriedly beckoned him over and said to the man, "Su Fuzi, this is the child I said like you, this child has always been steadfast and steady, and it seems to me that this child will have a great future in the future!" ”

Hearing this, Su and his son shifted their eyes and looked at Xu Chengzhi, and Chengzhi hurriedly bent down and saluted, "Chengzhi has seen the master." ”

He also held the rabbit meat in his hand to the new master.

The piece of rabbit meat that I wanted to give to the village chief had been handed over to Xu Wen before entering the door, and Xu Wen was asked to put it up first, so it was convenient to directly hand over all the things in his hand to the new master now.

The master stroked his beard and looked at Xu Chengzhi and said, "The old man's surname is Su, you can call me Su Fuzi, you can bring the rabbit meat back by yourself first, it has always been the old man's wish to be a good student with a dignified character, as long as you are willing to study in the future and get ahead, it can be regarded as worthy of the old man's teaching to you in the future." ”

Cheng Zhi was a little at a loss for a while holding the rabbit meat, Su Fuzi's words made him happy in his heart, but he couldn't help but feel a little pressure, in addition, Su Fuzi's reluctance to accept the rabbit meat really made Cheng Zhi's heart a little uneasy.

Seeing this, the village chief persuaded, "It's better to accept this little rabbit meat, although the etiquette is a little thin, but it can be regarded as a child's heart, if you don't accept it, this child will be unable to sit and sleep peacefully." ”

Su Fuzi smiled helplessly, took the things in Cheng Zhi's hand, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Cheng Zhi, Su Fuzi said with some amusement, I didn't expect this remote mountain village to talk about so many false etiquette.
