Sun Shangxiang took a knife to cut a watermelon, and Ma Hong and Zhang Wei each took a piece of watermelon.

"Teacher, actually, I've always wanted to ask a question?"

Zhang Wei took a bite of the watermelon and said to Ma Hong.

"Don't say anything about food, don't talk to me, don't shout food in your mouth."

"Are you afraid that your apprentice will spray watermelon on your face?"

Sun Shangxiang sneered at Ma Hong.

Ma Hong didn't bother to pay attention to Sun Shangxiang, and opened his mouth to eat watermelon.

Zhang Wei put the watermelon he took a bite on the dining table and said: "Teacher, this week is undoubtedly a prodigy in Jingzhou, I can also see that he is very talented, the teacher accepts him as a disciple, it is natural, but I really don't see anything outstanding about this Deng Ai, the teacher actually plans to accept him as a disciple." ”

Ma Hong finished eating the watermelon, snatched the cloth from Sun Shangxiang's hand, wiped his mouth, and said, "It may be that your eyes are a little small, so you can't find the beauty of others." ”

Zhang Wei was speechless for a while, his eyes were indeed small, and when he laughed, they would become a slit, so he rarely smiled.

Ma Hong glanced at Sun Shangxiang's big eyes and said, "My apprentice has many advantages, haven't you noticed them?" ”

"What advantages? Let's hear it. Sun Shangxiang said with a smile.

Zhang Wei also looked at Ma Hong expectantly.

Ma Hong coughed and said, "My apprentice knows how to raise pigs, and I heard that the pigs he raises are very fat. ”

"Oh! You said. Sun Shangxiang said.

"Madam, at this time, you should say husband, please speak, pay attention to etiquette."

Sun Shangxiang saw Ma Hong speaking slowly, and said unhappily: "Does the husband say it or not?" ”

"Well, my apprentice also has the advantage of walking very quickly, and there is almost no sound." Ma Hong said.

"Teacher, this is not an advantage, is it?" Zhang Wei said with a smile.

"Why is it not an advantage, no, your junior brother is behind you now." Ma Hong pointed to Zhang Wei's back and said.

Zhang Wei and Sun Shangxiang were stunned for a moment, and they both looked behind them, only to see Deng Ai standing behind them with his head down, his face flushed and twisted. (To be continued.) )
