"Silly child, although the little girl is a little fatter, she doesn't look ugly at all, she is kind-hearted, and Boss Hu is such a daughter, and the family business is not all yours, relying on a small shop, you don't have to worry about food and clothing. "She was too strict just now, and she rarely showed her loving maternal love.

"Mother, don't say it anymore, I'm self-reliant and don't eat soft rice. "Jans said very firmly, what a joke.

Yang Si picked up two large bowls of rice, ate a pot of vegetables, and sat with his belly licked, burping with a satisfied expression on his face.

After the mother and son had a good meal, Yang Hong took a steel ruler out and grinded, Yang Si was on the side to help, she looked at it very carefully, accurate measurement is not an easy task in any era, the mother's job is to make the support rod of the balance, which requires the rod as a whole to be very uniform, the higher the accuracy of the ruler, the higher the price, it is said that the accuracy to reach the milligram level must be completed by the scholar with the star array, as for the higher level, you may need a great bachelor.

The mother is ingenious, and the balance ruler she makes is always better than that of ordinary women, in exchange for the living expenses of the mother and son.

"Okay, you don't have to help, you just get more and more helped. Yang Hong scolded, "Go to bed early, go to the shoe store early tomorrow, and help your Uncle Hu make a few more pairs of shoes." ”

Yang Si agreed, lying on the bed in the back room, saying that it was the back room, but in fact, it was separated by a layer of wooden boards, and the mother and son's house as a whole was very simple, and after a while, there was a snoring sound, and the mother smiled slightly, and also put down the steel ruler in her hand, and glanced at the dilapidated window.

Suddenly, she had strange symbols woven into her hands, and with a wave of her hand, it seemed that nothing had changed around her.

The faint starlight flickered, and the steel ruler became uniform and smooth, she looked at it, and deliberately sharpened it in a few places, so that the accuracy could be reduced a little, and it was guaranteed to be at the middle and upper level of ordinary craftsmen.

Soon, more than a dozen steel rulers were processed.

She walked gently to her son's bedside and looked at the sleeping child with a rare expression of love.

At this moment, a piece of starlight flashed in Yang Si's head, and one of the light clusters struggled, becoming more and more brilliant, she hurriedly put out her hands together, and added several strange star arrays, until the light clusters were completely restrained, she muttered to herself: "The Heavenly Selection Star Array made by the teacher himself is really extraordinary, this child's talent is much higher than that of his mother, not to mention that waste brother." ”

The light suddenly became more intense, wanting to break free from the layers of restraints, she hurriedly reached out to form a seal, constantly changing, wanting not to hurt the child, everything had to be very careful, with her ability It took half an hour, and her forehead was covered with sweat.

The light finally fell silent.

She watched quietly and sighed.

With a wave of her hand, everything returned to calm.

The night, the silence, and the sound of insects chirping.

The next day.

Liu Meng didn't wait for Yang Si, and he didn't see it in Lao Hu's shoe store, it was really strange, he found the house at home according to the address provided by Lao Hu, a very dilapidated room, but there was a sense of trance, Liu Meng thought it was dazzling.

"Come in. ”

A calm woman's voice came from the room, and Liu Meng became more and more curious, pushing the door in.

The room is simple but neat, middle-aged woman, wearing coarse cloth clothes, but that temperament gives people a special feeling, unlike ordinary women who are full of vicissitudes of life in their eyes, most of them are unwilling to accept fate and complain about life, her face can not see the traces of firewood, rice, oil and salt flowing for many years, and the eyes are like a clear spring.

"Sit. ”

Liu Meng sat down, looked faintly, and then said, "You are Yang Si's mother." ”

"Yes, I've heard Youngs talk about you as a teacher, but I hope you don't associate with Youngs anymore and don't give him the idea of becoming a scholar. ”

Too surprised, Liu Meng wondered: "Why? Doesn't a mother want her child to be successful?"

"We are poor and cannot afford the high cost of studying academics, and those uncertainties will ruin our future lives. ”

Very simple philosophy of life.

"I'll cover his entire expenses. Liu Meng became more and more curious, this woman was too strange, she seemed to know that he was coming, and knew who he was, but ordinary people's awe of scholars was deep in her bones, but she was so calm.

"No, we poor people owe no favors. ”

"Youngs' talent is very good, and with time, it is not difficult to become a prospective scholar. ”

"You are only a quasi-scholar, how can you make others become quasi-scholars, maybe you are wrong. ”

"I couldn't be mistaken. Liu Meng has a firm self-confidence.

Yang Hong's eyebrows finally flashed a touch of strangeness, she listened to her son's words, and deliberately scolded him not to go, just waiting for Liu Meng to find him, the rumors about Liu Meng have changed dramatically in the past few days, and he has become a quasi-scholar, and I also want to see what happened to him after all.

He has a ban on him, is it broken? Impossible.

"Who the hell are you?" she asked suddenly.

Liu Meng's eyelids jumped, this woman gave him a very strange feeling, and even felt dangerous, which Mu Xue had never had, and he wanted to pull his legs and run away.

But it was too late, he felt that the air was as turbulent as flowing water, a strange feeling, an ethereal and distant voice came, as if it had invaded his heart.

His mind began to get confused.

"Why did you suddenly become a prospective scholar? Tell me in detail, without the slightest concealment. ”

"It's not difficult to study academically and become an associate scholar. ”

Yang Hong frowned, and said in his heart that hard work can be achieved, then the whole world is a scholar, "What is your relationship with Mu Xue?"

"It doesn't matter, well, she appreciates me. ”

"Why does she admire you?"

"Hmm...... I don't know, maybe it's handsome. ”

"What contradiction do you have with Zhou Jun?"

"That little white face is underwhelming. ”

After asking for a while, but there was no nutritional anything at all, Yang Hong was also so strange that he couldn't do it, could it be that this kid really broke through the shield by his own efforts? Time is not short.

"You didn't hear anything, you didn't say anything, you had a dream. ”

Liu Meng opened his eyes, looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him blankly, and said suspiciously: "Oh, Yang Si is not here, forget it." ”

"Scholar, go slowly. ”

Liu Meng said a few perfunctory words, his face was calm, his steps were steady, and after he walked out of the inconspicuous dilapidated house, he stared at and quickened his pace, and only stopped when he ran to the square of the Wisdom Palace, his forehead was full of cold sweat, and he was horrified, who is this woman.

He didn't completely lose consciousness, but fortunately, Xueshu protected his consciousness with a bright light at the critical moment, and he was very clever enough to talk nonsense.

It's terrible for this woman to stay away.
