"I haven't exercised for a long time, and my body is a little rusty, I'll try it!" Twisting his face and saying a word to the little aunt on the side, Zhang Jie came to the thatched hut.

For the arrival of Zhang Jie, a handsome young man, the girl was obviously surprised, and the girl with a little flush on her little face tanned by the sun whispered: "Who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for it!" He pointed to the axe in the other person's hand, then rolled up the cuffs, and then took the axe from the hand of the girl with a shocked face, and put it in his hand, "Bah, bah!" After spitting two mouthfuls of foam, Zhang Jie, who picked up the axe, slashed towards the firewood on the ground.

'Bump! ’

With an axe, the firewood was directly cut in half, and then flew out on both sides, but fortunately there was no one on either side, otherwise if the flying wood hit someone, it would be enough to drink a pot.

"Stay away, I'm not responsible for hitting people." Saying this, when the firewood is arranged, the second axe, Zhang Jie will not dare to use the strength of his whole body, this time he exerts fifty percent of his strength, and when he touches it, he doesn't think about it, the axe suddenly splits into the firewood, but it is stuck by the firewood, and Zhang Jie takes a lot of effort to get the axe out of the firewood.

"If you don't have some real skills, you won't be able to help you!" Again he spat at the mouth on his hand, this time with eight points of force, and finally, with an axe, split the wood in half.

With experience, it's easy to do next, don't dare to use all your strength, leave a little strength when the axe in your hand is chopped down, Zhang Jie doesn't dare to step on the wood with his feet like a girl, for fear that the axe will split his feet in half, so although he left a little strength, but the firewood he chopped is still flying around, and the girls on the side are responsible for picking it up.

But when he saw that there were still a lot of unapproved ones beside him, Zhang Jie was a little discouraged, and after a while, his hands were already red to the touch, I am afraid that if he continues to do it, his palms will have to be calloused.

If you let Wang know that the hand holding the pen is calloused, you have to scold yourself for not doing your job.

"I'll do it!" Seeing that Zhang Jie was tired, the girl on the side was going to grab the axe in Zhang Jie's hand.

"That's the momentum, I have to finish chopping this bit of wood, otherwise I'm sorry for this axe." Push the girl aside, I still don't believe it, how can I say that I am also a man, how can I compare to an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.

picked up a piece of wood again and put it on the ground, and Zhang Jie, who had raised the axe high, slashed it again.

Zhang Xia on the side saw that the young man in front of her was rarely serious, and opened her mouth slightly a few times, but in the end she didn't say anything. moved to the side, got together with the old lady, and heard the old lady speak: "If you don't look away, this should be Zhang Xiaoxianggong of Zhangjia Village!" ”

Slightly startled, Zhang Xia said softly: "Have you seen him?" ”

"I haven't seen it before!" The wrinkled old lady squinted her eyes, with a slight smile in her cloudy eyes, looked at the young man in a long robe, and said:

"Although I haven't seen it, but who in Shili Eight Villages still doesn't know his name, his third uncle is the eldest minister of the Zhang family, he is the little minister of the Zhang family, a family and two talents, you Zhangjia Village has shown its face in the entire county this time, as for how to see it, the shadow of the person, the bark of the tree, this person, the level is different, and the bearing is different, Zhang Xiaoxianggong's taste of reading is not something that those melon babies in the school can pretend to be after learning the melon and two dates. At this age, with this kind of bearing and responsibility, except for Zhang Xiaoxianggong in Zhangjia Village, I really can't think of anyone else in our ten miles and eight villages! ”

looked at the sweaty boy very carefully, but Zhang Xia didn't see any special bearing from him, except for work, he didn't have a working appearance, he had no strength but didn't know how to use it, Zhang Xia really didn't see any extraordinary bearing from him.

"Xiaoli, this child, followed our old couple and suffered a lot, you are her own sister, since you have the ability, then take Xiaoli away, follow our old couple, you won't even be able to find your in-laws' house in the future, she will be ruined in the future, while her age is not too big now, you take her back, no matter what, you are also a sister, look at her well, don't let her suffer!"

When the old lady said this, a pair of eyes were always staring at the black and thin little girl, with a little emotion, some relief, and some relief in her expression.

was seen through at a glance, although the old lady agreed to take her sister away, but Zhang Xia didn't have a happy idea, looked back at the old man lying in the thatched hut, and the old lady with trembling hands, Zhang Xia felt that no matter what, this was once the place where her sister lived for twelve years, even if she pulled her away, it is estimated that she would not be able to leave the old couple who raised her and leave.

"She won't be willing to go, so, I don't want to waste that tongue, I once heard someone say such a sentence, the son is not ugly, the dog is not poor, you have raised her for 12 years, she is obliged to support you for the elderly, I can only help her within the scope of my ability, but I can't take her away, otherwise, even the Zhang Xiaoxiang in your mouth will look down on me."

The old lady didn't insist on anything, she was old and had no one to take care of her, and the old couple really couldn't last a few days, and if she didn't take it away, it would be hypocritical.

Tremblingly stretched out her hand, and then pointed to the little minister who was constantly sweating like rain, the old lady suddenly said:

"It's not that my old lady said anything flattering, I'm an old woman who is about to enter the ground, and I don't need to flatter anyone, just say something from my heart, this kid, at a young age, has a tenacity, when I heard the old master say that he will become a great weapon, the old lady I still think that the old master put gold on his face, but now I see it myself, only to know that the master's vision is quite unique, as long as the little minister maintains this tenacity, the future king may be a little far away, but in the court, there must be a place for him."

"The old man in the family also said the same thing, saying that he hoped that he could live for two more years, and then follow his grandson to the capital to see and enjoy happiness or something." Zhang Xia, who unconsciously smiled at the corner of her mouth, said softly.

"Haha! You Zhang Jiayou, this time you are going to get up, our county is also going to have a famous and magnificent person who shocks the world, it's a pity, I can't see that day, my wife. ”

In July, it is the time of summer practice.

The two of them were under the eaves, muttering quietly.

The two of them were busy working under the sun, sweating like rain.
