Since Xi Ming learned that practicing martial arts can strengthen his body, he spent all his time studying and playing chess on weekdays to practice martial arts.

There are twelve hours a day, and there are eight hours, all of them are practicing martial arts in the courtyard, but fortunately, his hard work has not been in vain, and in the past six months, he has not had another illness.

Moreover, he obviously felt that his body was much stronger than before, and he used to be tired and out of breath when he took a few more steps, but now that a complete set of thirty-six sword moves has been practiced, he is only a little careless and heartbeat.

Xi Ming was very happy about this.

Ah Yun pouted and looked at Brother with envy, "Brother, you are so powerful, I have only learned twenty-four styles of swordsmanship, and you have learned them all, even more powerful than Xiao Jiu." ”

Xiao Jiu practiced to the thirty-second style, and there were still four styles left, so he learned the whole thing, and it was the fastest practice in Loquat House and Pomegranate Garden, except for Xi Ming.

Xi Ming took the towel cloth handed over by Xiao Jiu, wiped the sweat beads on his face, and said with a smile, "You spend half of your hours studying, and you have less time to practice martial arts, so you are naturally slower than me, I am not as good at reading as you, and Daddy also praises you for reading well, and in two years, maybe you will be able to participate in the township test." ”

"Daddy really said that in two years, he will let me take the township test?" A Yun's little face instantly burst into a brilliant light, and his eyes seemed to be infused with two large spars, shining brightly.

Ah Ming snorted, "Daddy said, when he comes back, he will hire a master for you to teach you to study at home, and you will be spared the trouble of going back and forth to the academy." ”

"That'...... Am I not going to be able to go to the academy anymore? Ah Yun's little face was a little reluctant, the master of his academy was very good, he liked the master very much, but since he was almost taken away last time, he had never gone to the academy again, and he didn't know how his master's health was.

Is the illness cured?

Xi Ming sighed and said, "Daddy is afraid that you are in danger, so I don't worry about letting you go to the academy to study again." ”

"I know, okay, for Daddy's sake, I'll listen to Daddy's arrangement." Although he is still reluctant to learn from the academy in his heart, he can't be arrested again, otherwise his father and aunt will be sad.

The peach garden was lively all day, in the evening, the three sisters and brothers had a meal in the peach garden, after the meal, the three sisters and brothers also went to the small Buddha hall to see Ruan's.

It's just that the three of them didn't enter the Buddhist hall and didn't dare to go in to disturb Ruan's, they just stood outside for a while and left.

In the days that followed, Su Wan and Chu Wu were secretly protecting Xi Ming and Xi Yun inch by inch, and the Ruan family had been chanting scriptures in the small Buddha hall, not going out for a single step, and Xi Feng was taking care of the affairs of the family.

The days were quiet for five or six days, until the evening of September 26, when Chu Jiu came.

Every time Chu Jiu came to Sanning Lane, he came early in the morning, and every time he came, he would first let Su Ping come in and report that he was showing up.

But this time, as soon as Xi Feng slept, he heard someone knocking on the window, "Miss, the subordinate is Chu Jiu, and he has something urgent to report." ”

"What's the matter? Looking for me in such a hurry? Is there something going on in Desheng Lane? Xi Feng hurriedly put on the coat he had just taken off, got out of bed and opened the window, and let Chu Jiu in.

Chu Jiu said, "Miss, Xi Tonglin sent someone to go to the incense and candle shop tonight to steal silver, as well as the paddy field shop and the title deed of this house, they plan to divide the army into two ways...... Miss, let's send someone to guard the shop quickly, otherwise it will be too late. ”
