Wangjiayao Village is at the foot of Xishan Mountain.

There are several porcelain kilns opened by the Wang clan, and the adjacent ones are also large and small Zhuangzi under the name of the Wang family.

In the Wangjia kiln, the seventy or eighty families living in it are either stewards of the Wang family or tenants who rent the land of the Wang family.

Of course, the "Wang family" here is not Wang's father's family, but the Wang clan with the surname of the first gentry in Anlu Prefecture.

The Taoist idiot followed Wang Fuping to the entrance of the village, and saw a young man in sackcloth, twenty-five or six years old, honest in appearance and tall and strong

Seeing Wang Fuping, the young man walked a few steps quickly and greeted him.

He is Wang Fuping's second son, he has often gone up the mountain to sweep in the past two years, he knows the idiot, first said hello to him, and then Wang Fuping said: "Dad, the second uncle is looking for ......"

Wang Fuping said "um", didn't stop at his feet, and went to his yard.

The courtyard of the Wang family was not far from the entrance of the village, and before they got close, they heard the sound of crying and mourning coming from the courtyard.

When the idiot heard this, there were no tears in his eyes, but he felt so uncomfortable in his heart.

For others, perhaps the clan bloodline, flesh and blood are the closest, for the Taoist idiot, the old monk on the mountain and the old handyman under the mountain are the most important people in this life.

When I got to the door, the crying grew louder and louder. One of them was crying loudly.

The Taoist idiot only felt that his eardrums trembled, turned his head to look at Wang Fuping's father and son, and saw that they were unconscious, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

The gate is white, and a mourning shed has been erected in the courtyard.

It is customary in the world that if there are elderly people in the family, how early should they prepare for longevity.

The Wang family is no exception, although Father Wang regards himself as a miscellaneous servant in Xishan Temple, but in the eyes of his children and grandchildren, he is the old lady of the family.

Although it is only a family in the village, the Wang family not only has a house and land, but also because of the importance of the grandfather of Zongfang, several of Wang's father's children and grandchildren are on errands in the city, and they are also counted among the servants and stewards of the Wang family.

Therefore, in addition to their own children, grandchildren and villagers, the stewards of several neighboring Zhuangzi got the news and also came to mourn.

The courtyard was very lively, and the Taoist idiot followed behind Wang Fuping, his eyes passed through the crowd, and fell on the mourning hall.

In front of the coffin, kneeling down is filial piety and filial piety.

It was nearly noon, and the sun was shining.

Even if a mourning booth is erected on the mourning hall, you can know how hot it is in the mourning hall from the sweat dripping on everyone's foreheads.

The Taoist idiot is wearing a monk's robe, holding a half-foot-and-a-half wooden fish, with a solemn expression, and he is at this age, standing next to Wang Fuping, it is inevitable that it will attract people's attention.

The descendants and relatives of the Wang family are still there, and Wang Fuping is here, so it is not the turn of others to speak; Among the hangers, there were a few pointers, full of curiosity and doubts.

There was a Zhuang head who was familiar with the Wang family, looked up and down twice, and really couldn't see anything unusual, so he asked the person next to him: "Is Brother Ping so uncomfortable?" is to find a monk to chant scriptures, this little monk is not a good thing? ”

The person next to him was not an outsider, it was Wang Fu'an, the second son of Wang's father, who did not respond, but said in a low voice: "Big brother Fang went to Xishan Temple......"

When the head of the village heard "Xishan Temple", he immediately swallowed a few mouthfuls of foam and honestly stopped.

These village leaders are in charge, although they are only servants of the Wang family, but they have always been the masters of the Zhuangzi.

However, those who can sit firmly on the head of the village know in their hearts that the West Mountain is a forbidden place and cannot be entered and exited at will.

In the early years, there were stewards who did not believe in evil, and they took people to Xishan by virtue of their old qualifications.

As a result, not only was he dismissed from the stewardship, but he was also sold to Sichuan Ke.

The word "forbidden land" is not only for the people of the Wang family, but also for the people of the Wang clan.

In March last year, a young master of the Wang family's clan took a few classmates out of the city to play, and when he saw the elegant scenery of the West Mountain, he insisted on going up the mountain despite the pleading of his subordinates.

The heads of the Zhuangzi Zhuangzi under the mountain are all waiting to see the excitement.

No matter who lives on the mountain, you should give face to the sect, right?

It was not only the young master of the Wang clan who went up the mountain, but also the grandson of the head of the Wang family.

Unexpectedly, the young master of the Wang family was carried down the mountain.

Then, someone saw that the patriarch personally went to Xishan.

Is it the teacher who asks about the sin, or the teacher who asks the sin, or the teacher who asks the sin?

No one knows what happened on the western mountain. It's just a few days later, word came out in the city, and the young master who broke into the mountain was executed by the family law, in addition to playing the board, he also knelt in the ancestral hall.

All of a sudden, everyone knew what to expect.

The young master hit the iron plate. The West Mountain is mighty. Even serious masters need to retreat, and they can't afford to be a servant in doing so.

For the Wang family's family, except for the elders of the Wang family, the only one who is qualified to go up the mountain, everyone is careful to make friends, and there are many people who are interested in inquiring.

Among the several Wang family members who went up the mountain, Wang Fuping's second son was too honest, he was a mussel shell mouth, and he couldn't make a fart with a stick; The eldest nephew is a treacherous man, and he is "uncle and uncle" when he speaks, and he is used to flattering people, but he is not useful at all.

The remaining one is Wang Fuping's eldest grandson, Tiger Head and Tiger Brain, Milk Name Tiger Head, looking sturdy, but he was sick and burned out his braincase when he was a child, he is a fool, and he can't speak.

It was the fool of the Wang family who dispelled the pain of bereavement and caused him to be angry.

The child is already strong, and it is this hot day, he knows what to do, and he will naturally rest when he is tired of crying; The fool was sincere, and he howled at the top of his throat.

It's just that adults can't stand it like this, don't talk about a half-grown child.

His voice was hoarse, but no one around him was paying attention.

Even his own son, Lao Tzu, was busy discussing with his own Lao Tzu about going into the city to buy ice.

The weather is very hot, whether you stop at home for three days or seven days, you need to buy ice. Otherwise, no one can stand it.

Except in the state city, who in the countryside will prepare ice?

It is the ice in the city, most of which are made by the rich and noble. After all, the lake is not as wide as the north, digging cellars to store ice in winter, but using ancient methods to make ice.

For the people in the market, it is rare to give up a few big texts to eat an ice bowl, who is willing to use ice to cool down.

If you enter the city, you can't get around the sect.

Father Wang was originally a servant of the Wang family and was given the surname of Wang, but he was born as a citizen before marrying. Even if the children and grandchildren are on errands in the Wang family's business, they also sign employment documents, not identity deeds.

Replace it with someone else, an old servant who has been let out, and if it's gone, it's gone; But Daddy Wang has always treated the sect differently.

If you don't report your funeral to the clan when you get to the city, you really can't say it; But since he reported the funeral to the old master's family, his brothers and nephews were a little disrespectful, so he could only go through Wang Fuping, the head of the family.

Wang Fuping temporarily explained the matter at home to Wang Fuan.

Relatives and friends, the Taoist idiot is here on behalf of the great monk.

Others don't know the identity of the great monk, but Wang Fuping knows a thing or two. Not to mention, the fact that the great monk is the "benefactor" of Father Wang alone does not allow his descendants to be disrespectful.

Therefore, he made a special trip to instruct his brother: "The little master will go down the mountain to chant on behalf of the master, don't be lazy." First of all, I will ask the little master to eat tea, and let someone buy a meal, and I will talk about the rest when I come back. ”

Wang Fuan knew the weight of Xishan Temple, and he was full of words.

Wang Fuping made proper arrangements, first said hello to the idiot, and then said hello to the head steward of the village who came to pay tribute, and then took his second son into the city to report the funeral.

Wang Fuan, on his side, said politely to the idiot: "The tired little master moved to the west hall to eat tea." ”

The Taoist idiot nodded, and followed Wang Fu'an.

At this moment, the tiger head had already seen the idiot, and unconsciously stopped crying.

The idiot only glanced at him, then he shrunk his neck, got up honestly, and came up.

He cried hard, his eyes were swollen like rotten peaches, his face was full of snot and tears, and he looked embarrassed.

Seeing his nephew like this, Wang Fuan couldn't help frowning, and just wanted to scold him, his eyes fell on the idiot, and he swallowed the words on his lips again.

He remembered that his nephew, who had lived with the old man on the West Mountain for a few years a few years ago, was an old acquaintance.

Now that the idiot didn't say anything, he didn't have much to do.

When he arrived in the west hall, Wang Fuan called his nephew to bring tea and personally served tea to the little monk.

The Taoist idiot didn't say much, but said: "Donor, go and get busy, it's good to have a tiger head, and when I rest, I'll go to chant." ”

Wang Fuan hurriedly responded, and before leaving, he didn't forget to bless his nephew and grandson: "Tiger head, a good student to serve the little master." ”

"Oh." The tiger head listened and replied in a humble manner. Xu was howling fiercely before, and his voice was already hoarse.

When Wang Fuan heard this, his footsteps stopped, and he frowned: "If your throat is uncomfortable, you can also eat a cup of tea to moisten your throat." ”

"Oh." The tiger head still responded innocently.

This silly and stupid sluggish appearance, Wang Fuan had a headache when he saw it, but he had no other way, so he shook his head and went out to entertain the hangers.

The Taoist idiot looked at the tiger head and shook his head.

The tiger's expression was still simple, but his eyes wandered around, and finally landed on the towel rack in the corner of the house, went up to get the towel, and wiped his face.

In the eyes of the idiot, he couldn't help but smile.

In the eyes of the world, the tiger's head is just a pitiful worm, which burns out his brain, and his brain is paste; But the idiot knows that the tiger head is not stupid.

Teach him slowly, and he will remember it in his heart.

Just like the old monk once warned him not to show his strength in front of people, he never showed the slightest abnormality, even in front of his biological parents.

Once, the Taoist idiot followed Wang Fuping down the mountain to visit Wang's father, and saw the naughty boy in the village bullying the tiger head.

Four or five half-grown teenagers surrounded the tiger's head in the middle, pushing and making fun.

Although the tiger head is strong, in the eyes of outsiders, he is just a fool who will not resist.

Even if it is the grandson of the village chief, as long as he does not let the adults know, he will be bullied.

The tiger head was obedient again, because the old monk told him not to exert his strength in front of people, so he stood honestly.

Seeing the village chief coming, the urchins quickly scattered and ran away.

Although Wang Fuping also saw a few naughty children surrounding his grandson, it can be seen that there is no injury on the tiger head, so he didn't take it seriously.

The Taoist idiot has a Buddha face, is quiet and quiet, but he is not willing to suffer. Tiger Head, a stupid child, is considered to have grown up with him, how can he be bullied.

The idiot only told the tiger head that even if the punch was too heavy, he would use the slap and his left hand in the future.

Although Tiger Head is only a half-grown child, this slap with his left hand that he can't use strength is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Not long after, two teenagers with pig-headed faces were brought over by their parents to "ask the teacher for guilt".

In the eyes of the Wang family, although the tiger's head is strong, he is as gentle as a lamb, if he is not bullied by others, where will he beat people.

Seeing the silly tiger head, the two families also felt that they were at a loss, so they could only go back with a sad face.

The people in the village know this time that a fool is a fool after all, and if he doesn't want to talk and leak, don't provoke the fool, or a big ear scraper will come down, maybe he will lose two front teeth......
