In seven days, Xu Lai's recovery was very difficult, and he was just able to walk on his own.

But here's the problem, he has no beef to eat.

The dog had no money left, and he was poor by him.

But that's not the biggest problem.

Mother Chen rubbed her hands, her face was a little nervous, and her words became a little slurred, but her attitude was very resolute, "Guest, you also know that our family is very poor. We don't mind if you stay here for the time being, but now that you've recovered somewhat, I'm afraid you'll have to work to get your own food. ”

Through labor, obtaining food, of course, there is nothing wrong with ordinary people.

But he's no ordinary man.

But now he's just an ordinary person.

Of course, this fact is extremely unfavorable to his recovery from his injuries, but with his current physique, if he is forced to go back, it is very likely that he will die halfway through.

So Xu Lai's lips moved.

But he didn't say anything.

He was silent for a moment.

Then he nodded.

......

......

Although Xu Lai could eat, Chen's mother quickly discovered Xu Lai's first advantage, that is, his great strength. So this also brought Xu Lai the first "job" in his life.

The subordinate of the Li steward's family in the east of the town is a carpenter.

It is said that Steward Li is a popular figure in Sanhe Town, and it is said that the little nephew of the third aunt of his aunt's second uncle, the eldest aunt, used to be a cultivator, and there was a cultivator in the family, which was a great thing. This is also the first place in the assessment of the Pingding Army this time, which shocked Sanhe Town. Steward Li felt that the dog had some future in the future, so he gave Xu Lai this opportunity.

Xu Lai himself has very few words, and his strength is extremely great, and he can do the work of three or five people alone. Although I eat a lot, anyone who can do things will like it.

So after working for a month, Steward Li let go, and seeing Xu Lai's appearance, he planned to talk to Xu Lai.

It has been a full month and seven days since Xu Lai came to Sanhe Town.

More than a month is just a drop in the ocean for Xu Lai. He still can't afford Poria fruit, but with the self-healing function of knowing the sea, he can now take the initiative to practice.

Gou Yu also gradually accepted the fact that he suddenly had a "Big Brother Xu" in his family, and Chen's mother's name for Xu Lai was also successfully changed to his name, and everything was developing slowly and orderly.

......

......

The white horse passed by, and in the blink of an eye, three years had passed.

Other things have not changed much, but Steward Li seems to Xu Lai to really look at Mung Bean. Originally, the big guys thought it was just a joke about "family affairs,But now it seems to be really feasible.。

The other party is a distant niece of Steward Li's family, it is said that she does good embroidery and delicious cooking, but she is a little fat and fat, and she has already been praised by those little minions under Steward Li.

After finishing the day's work, Xu Lai returned to Chen's house, which was still the same small bed and a big palm. However, since his health improved a little, he took the initiative to give the bed to Chen's mother and the dog, and he slept on the floor alone.

"Xu Lai, don't be stubborn. You kid, why are you as stubborn as Gou Yu, what's wrong with the daughter of Steward Li? You're not too young, it's time to start a family. ”

After living here for three years, Chen's mother has long regarded Xu Lai as her own child. Everyone in Sanhe Town has long been accustomed to the fact that there is an extra man in the Chen family, and everything is so natural.

The dog is still fifteen years old.

Mother Chen sighed and said slowly, "I know that some of you young people have higher hearts than the sky, and they always want to have a good future. But Steward Li, the Sanhe Town within a radius of dozens of miles is full of people with heads and faces, and there have been characters like immortals in the clan, so it stands to reason that they can also be worthy of your child. ”

Chen's mother's words were more tactful, in fact, both Xu Lai and Gou Yu understood what she meant, not to mention that she could be worthy of Xu Lai, it was simply that there was green smoke on Xu Lai's ancestral grave.

Chen's mother's health is getting worse and worse, and she has to rest for a while every time she says a few words, and she still has the old problem of shoulder pain. The dog couldn't interject, but he felt that something was not good in his heart. If you want to marry Steward Li's distant niece, you must be a door-to-door son-in-law, and Brother Xu doesn't talk much, who knows if he will be bullied by that woman if he goes?

The current Chen family is definitely a celebrity in Sanhe Town. A few years ago, there was a dog leftover who won the first place in the assessment of Beiyuan Province of the Pingding Army, which shocked many people. Then there was another Xu Lai, no matter how Steward Li showed this family business, Xu Lai just didn't say anything.

Especially Xu Lai is still famous for his ability to do things, everyone knows that with such a man who has great strength and does not cause trouble, his life should be much better in the future, which is why Steward Li likes Xu Lai. However, Xu Lai calmed down, it didn't mean that everyone was calm, and finally, this silence began to be broken.

The reason for it is broken is because of people's curiosity.

No one thinks that Steward Li's distant niece is not worthy of Xu Lai.

As a result, some rumors began to circulate......

"Xu Lai, this kid, looks quite normal, I didn't expect there to be a problem in that regard, this is a poor baby. ”

"How do you know there's something wrong with him?"

"Steward Li's distant niece, such a big pie is in front of you, so why do you say that Xu Lai disagrees? In my opinion, either there is a problem in that aspect or there is a habit of Longyang. ”

"I said, no wonder the child didn't speak all day, probably because of low self-esteem. ”

Of course, Xu Lai didn't care about these rumors, his mind was not in a small place like Sanhe Town at all.

The first one who couldn't hold his breath was Steward Li himself.

Within a few days, Steward Li drove in front of the Chen family with a large number of people.

Xu Lai is known for being taciturn, and it is impossible to expect Xu Lai to take the initiative. Steward Li had gradually lost his patience to wait, and he even decided to use a carriage.

In a poor town like Trois-Rivières, horse-drawn carriages are extremely rare. Only the last time the pacification army came to look for the dogs, such a picture once appeared.

As the neighing of the horses gradually stopped, more and more eyes began to gather in front of the Chen family. Although people didn't dare to talk about it in front of Steward Li, it was inevitable that some gossip would reach his ears behind his back. As soon as there are too many rumors, it is easy to turn sour.

Xu Lai can wait, he can't afford to wait, and his distant niece can't wait.

What's more, this wait is three years.

"Xu Lai, you come out for me. ”
