Chapter 2 A Warm Family

With some doubts, Su Shang glanced at Su Zhinuan, when Sister Ah was six years old, Ah Niang excused herself and said that the family had no money, and it has only been three years, and the family has accumulated so much money?

"Sister, or... I'll tell A-Niang that you want to test your physique?" Su Shang's eyes were a little wooden, and he said softly.

"You are stupid, Sister is a girl, she will marry someone in the future, you are a boy, and the Su family will still rely on you in the future!!" Su Zhinuan knocked on Su Shang's forehead and reproached: "Hurry up and go home to eat, Sister will take these things back for you." ”

Su Zhinuan said as he scooped up the fishing basket, and with the other hand, he scooped up the fishing rod and wooden stool.

"Sister, you are so good!" Su Shang said sincerely, he could feel that Su Zhinuan was really good to himself, Daddy, Auntie was also very good to himself, even some villagers in the village were good to him, and he didn't make fun of himself because of his low intelligence.

"Fool, Sister is not good to you, but to whom. Su Zhinuan rolled his eyes and led Su Shang towards his home.

Facing the sea on three sides and surrounded by mountains on one side, Yumao Village is not a fairyland on earth, but it has the feeling of a paradise, and the villagers here have been fishing for a living for generations, and occasionally a few families will send their children to the Qingming Academy in the town to test their physique after saving enough money.

Once you qualify as an Beast Walker or Beast Master, the whole family will follow suit.

Of course, failure can mean that your life's savings have been wasted.

Because of this, the villagers of Yumao Village gradually looked down on the cultivation of things, and over time, Yumao Village gave people a sense of detachment from the world.

When Su Shang followed Su Zhinuan back to Yumao Village, the villagers were busy cooking, Su Zhinuan was a sensible girl, she smiled and greeted the villagers who came over, and the villagers responded with a smile, even if they saw Su Shang, the villagers would signal slightly, laugh and joke.

"Brother, you will have a great future in the future, don't forget the villagers of Yumao Village, they are very good to you!" Su Zhinuan said as he walked forward.

"Brother knows. Su Shang nodded and followed Su Zhinuan into the house.

The Su family's house was quite dilapidated, with only three simple rooms and a hoe hanging upside down in front of the house.

At this time, Su Zhong sat at the dining table, with a sad face, and next to him sat a middle-aged woman, who also had a sad face, and the perennial manual labor made this woman's skin darker, and a trace of white hair could be faintly seen on her temples, it was Su Zhong's wife, Liu Ru.

After Liu Ru saw Su Shang's sister and brother enter the house, she hurriedly stretched out her legs and kicked Su Zhong, and then smiled: "Ah Shang, you're back, how is your harvest today?"

"If you go back to A-Niang, you have caught a lot of fish today, and there are Jinling fish, and if you get it to the town tomorrow, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price. Su Shang smiled innocently, then sat down next to Liu Ru, and continued: "Auntie, let Sister Ah test her physique tomorrow." ”

I don't know what's going on, Su Shang saw Liu Ru, as if he always had something to say, he liked to talk to Liu Ru very much.

"Fool, six years old is the best time to test your physique, your sister is already past this age, when you have a chance in the future, protect your sister well, don't let your sister be bullied. Liu Ru looked at Su Shang dotingly, then left a bowl of rice, and put some dishes into Su Shang's bowl, and continued: "Quick, eat more tonight, and there will be a mental test tomorrow." ”

"Brother, come on, Sister is still waiting for you to protect it!" Su Zhinuan said with a smile while wiping his hands after putting the fish basket away.

"Alright, alright, you mother and daughter will only add pressure to Ashan. Su Zhong waved his hand, rested one foot on the wooden bench, turned his head to look at Su Shang, and said with a smile: "Ah Shang, don't listen to your aunt and sister's nonsense, tomorrow is to go over and play, don't put pressure on yourself." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, Daddy is right, tomorrow is to have fun, whether it is successful or not, Sister will protect you. Su Zhinuan rolled up his sleeves and raised his biceps.

Looking at the family, Su Shang's heart was warm, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and he said in a low voice: "But, I'm stupid, I'm very slow to learn things, I'm afraid... Wasting Daddy and Auntie's life savings. ”

"Who dares to say that my son is stupid, Lao Tzu killed him. Su Zhong grinned, sandwiched a piece of fish meat into Su Shang's bowl, and said with a smile: "Ah Shang, you are very smart, but the smart is not obvious, you need to be careful to find out, just like your fishing skills, who in Yumao Village doesn't know that my Su Zhong's son is the best." ”

"Brother, believe in yourself. Su Zhinuan sandwiched a pair of fish eyes and put them in Su Shang's bowl, she knew that her brother liked to eat fish eyes since he was a child.

"Ah Shang, Ah Niang has always had a secret in her heart, and I want to tell you today. Liu Ru smiled mysteriously.

"What's the secret?" Su Shang was attracted by her words.

"In A-Niang's heart, A-Shang has always been the smartest child, and he will definitely be able to rise above the sky and protect our little family in the future. Liu Ru said with a serious face.

Listening to Ah Niang's words, Su Shang smiled heartily, he knew that Ah Niang was comforting himself, so he subconsciously tightened his little fists, and secretly swore in his heart that he would protect this family in the future.

"Thank you, A-Niang!" Su Shang said with a resolute face.

"Quick, eat!" Liu Ru smiled dotingly.

After dinner, Su Zhinuan packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the backyard to chop wood, while Su Shang was arranged by Su Zhong to go to the room to rest early.

"Ah Zhong, do you think your son can succeed this time?" Liu Ru said with a worried face.

"Probably not!" Su Zhong frowned.

"Why?" asked Liu Ru.

"In the past, there were children in the village who were suitable for beast walkers and beast masters, and they had a special temperament, but our son didn't have them. Su Zhong recalled.

"Then will our son be suitable to be a Heavenly Mandate Mage?" Liu Ru asked subconsciously.

"Impossible, the odds of becoming a Destiny Mage are too low, so low that they are almost negligible. Su Zhong shook his head, then stared at Liu Ru and sighed lightly, "Mother-in-law, I'm curious, why do you insist on letting Ah Shang test his physique?"

"Testing physical fitness is a major event in a child's life, and I can't let Ah Shang's life be incomplete. ”

"Let him go even if he knows he's going to fail?"

"Hmm!"

Su Zhong was silent.

After a while, Su Zhong's vicissitudes of life flashed a solemn wisp of solemnity, and he said slowly: "For the sake of Ah Shang, you really decided to leave this house?"

"Hmm!" Liu Ru's eyes flashed with reluctance, and he said softly: "Six years ago, they found me and rejected them at that time, but now for the sake of my son, I can only agree to their request, but you." ”

Liu Ru's face was full of tenderness, and she said softly: "Will you blame me?"

"What do you think?" Su Zhong smiled slightly, got up slowly, glanced at the house, and chuckled: "Mother-in-law, we have been stable for nearly ten years, you can go with confidence, the child will be handed over to me, who dares to touch Lao Tzu's child, even if Lao Tzu kills Jiuxiao Tian, he will know that the child is my reverse scale, and if he touches it, he will die." ”

"So, the old lady is not your reverse scale?" Liu Ru rolled her eyes.

"Look at what you said, you are the lifeblood of Lao Tzu, but since you have decided to join them, I naturally won't say anything, I just hope that they will know how to forge ahead, after all, if you want to deal with them, it will be more troublesome, and the children will also be implicated. Su Zhong seemed to think of something, and his originally playful expression suddenly became serious, and he asked:

"Mother-in-law, Ah Shang can't see you when he comes home tomorrow, how can I tell him?"

"It's... I... , I really want to live with you for the rest of my life. Two lines of tears crossed Liu Ru's face, and her voice became extremely depressed.

"I'm sorry for you!" Su Zhong walked over slowly, and was about to kiss Liu Ru, but at this time, Su Zhinuan's voice came.
