Knock knock!

Knock on the courtyard door next door.

Taking two steps back, I looked at the distance between the two houses, and suddenly found that they were quite close.

"Dad, we're pretty close."

"What's wrong?"

"If we talk at home, can they hear it next door?"

Chu Yuqin lowered his voice and leaned into Chu Dashan's ear and asked.

Chu Dashan looked at the distance between the two houses and nodded.

"It should work."

Chu Yuqin patted his forehead, looking weak.

"Any questions?"

"Yes."

Without waiting for Chu Yuqin to explain, the courtyard door opened, and Old Man Zheng stood in front of the door.

"It turned out to be Master Chu and Miss Chu next door, our son-in-law is waiting for you, please come in."

The first time Chu Dashan was called 'master', it was like an insect biting him, and the whole person was uncomfortable.

In his opinion, only the powerful and powerful families in the city can be called masters. He still has mud on his legs, and it's almost the same to say that he is a long-term worker.

"Don't call me that, just call me a mountain."

Old man Zheng is a slave. Chu Dashan is not only Ling Shengyi's neighbor, but also Chu Yuqin's elder.

With Chu Yuqin's intelligence and ability, the Chu family will develop sooner or later. It is not an exaggeration to call Chu Dashan the master now. Only Chu Dashan has not yet recognized the facts.

Looking at the entire village, how many people can buy more than 100 acres of land? Even if it's just a wasteland, it represents her abilities.

"The old slave is a slave, Master Chu is the neighbor of our son-in-law, and the status is equal to that of our son-in-law, and it is the most appropriate title to call you master."

Chu Yuqin spoke beside him.

"You don't have to worry about it. If you keep calling me dad that, he'll be so uncomfortable all the time. If you can't call him by his name, just call him Lihong's father! ”

"That's it, the old slave will listen to Miss Chu. Two inside please. ”

Ling Shengyi sat in the courtyard. Tea and dried fruits were placed in front of him.

He looked at the book and took a sip of tea from time to time.

Old man Zheng walked over and said in a low voice, "Childe, Father Lihong and Miss Chu are here." ”

Ling Shengyi put down the book and stood up.

"Uncle Chu, Miss Chu, please take a seat."

Seeing Ling Shengyi, Chu Dashan felt at a loss again.

Ling Shengyi's temperament is too outstanding. Standing with these mud legs, there was immediate pressure.

"I heard Qin Yatou say, Master Ling wants to farm?"

"Yes. There are many things I don't understand, so I want to ask Uncle Chu. ”

"Don't say that. I can only do hard work, and I don't understand anything else. Chu Dashan's face was uncomfortable.

Chu Yuqin looked at Ling Shengyi's courtyard.

"In a few days, our family will rebuild a new house, and the courtyard wall will be hit, and it will be a bit noisy at that time. Will this disturb Master Ling's teaching? ”

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I don't have a lot of time in class every day. When the time comes, I'll take them to the mountains to study. ”

"In the mountains?" Chu Dashan was puzzled. "Can you still study in the mountains?"

"Actually, studying in the mountains is more efficient than in the room. The scenery in the mountains is good, the air is fresh, so it is more comfortable. ”

"It's just too troublesome Master Ling."

No matter how honest Chu Dashan was, he knew that Ling Shengyi was trying to save face for them.

"Everyone is neighbors, and it's right to help each other. What's more, I still have a lot of things I want to ask Uncle Chu. ”

Chu Yuqin didn't understand the work in the fields.

While the two were talking about how the crops were planted in the field, she looked at the cup in front of Ling Shengyi.

Ling Shengyi picked up the empty cup next to him, poured a cup of tea and sent it to Chu Yuqin.

Chu Yuqin glanced at him and thanked him with a smile.

Ling Shengyi realized that he had been negligent.

It stands to reason that he should pour tea for Chu Dashan first. But just now, he actually poured tea for Chu Yuqin, a junior.

Fortunately, Chu Dashan is not a rule, otherwise he would be unhappy when he saw this scene.

"Grandpa Zheng."

Chu Yuqin walked over.

"Miss Chu, don't call me like that, just call me Old Man Zheng."

Old man Zheng heard Chu Yuqin's salutation, and hurriedly said.

"Your master is your master, and I am me. I'm not your master, so I can call you whatever I want. ”

"There's still something wrong." Old man Zheng smiled: "But Miss Chu is happy." ”

"Grandpa Zheng, where did you find the vegetable seedlings?"

"Bought from the village. Our master wants to try growing vegetables, so let's buy some seasonal vegetables and try them out. ”

Old man Zheng lowered his voice, glanced in Ling Shengyi's direction, and continued to say to Chu Yuqin: "I have to ask what I have eaten recently, and I can't wait to gnaw the agricultural book in my hand." Look at him and your father like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop for a while. ”

"It's hard for me to imagine what your master is like growing vegetables."

"When the time comes, Miss Chu will come to visit."

A warm voice came from behind.

Chu Yuqin: "......"

She stood up and looked at Ling Shengyi behind her, but didn't see Chu Dashan.

"Where's my dad?"

"He went back to get the vegetables and planted."

Ling Shengyi said.

"Oh!" Chu Yuqin responded: "Then I'll go back first." ”

"Your father went to get me vegetables and planted them, and I'll be back later. As soon as you leave, he will be uncomfortable again. Or, Miss Chu will stay for a while? ”

"Master Ling, do you really want to farm?"

"Miss Chu asked the same question before." Ling Shengyi said lightly: "I don't look like a person who can farm?" ”

Chu Yuqin shook his head very facelessly.

Ling Shengyi touched his nose.

"Then I'd like to show you the results. Not every scholar is a weak scholar, and some scholars can go up the mountain to cut firewood and plant in the field. ”

"Okay! I'm waiting to see Master Ling's results. ”

Chu Dashan walked in with vegetable seeds.

"This is the vegetable that will be planted recently. However, Ling Fuzi's land has not been loosened yet, so it is better to spend a few days loosening the soil first, and it is necessary to fatten the land a little more. ”

Ling Shengyi took the vegetable seed and said politely: "This is going to trouble Uncle Chu to help me." In this regard, I am like a newborn baby, who knows nothing. ”

"Well said." Chu Dashan proudly agreed. "Tomorrow, when I go down to the ground, I will come to find Master Ling."

Chu Yuqin looked at the two.

Didn't you say you didn't feel comfortable?

Isn't that comfortable?

This man has a bit of ability, and he actually let Chu Dashan get close to him so quickly.

"Master Ling, why don't you build your house too! Look, you don't look like someone who lives in such a humble house. ”

"I'm just a poor scholar, what identity can I have?"

A dark light flashed in Ling Shengyi's eyes.

He looked at Chu Yuqin, as if he wanted to see something.

"Poor scholars are not so arrogant, they are building private schools at their own expense, and they are teaching those students for free. I also bought so much land to learn from others to farm. ”

Isn't this idle panic?

"I used to sell some calligraphy and paintings, and I kept some silver."

"Then do you build it?"

Chu Yuqin asked him.

"That's what I thought. If our house is built there, it will definitely quarrel with you. You're not short of silver anyway. It's better to build this place together. No one dislikes anyone. ”
