……

The next morning, before it was fully lit, there was a knock at the door.

"Han You! Han You! ”

The person outside the door was just about to continue to knock on the door, but before his hand fell, the door suddenly opened from the inside.

"Something?"

Han You stared at him, recognizing the guy outside the door who was two or three years older than himself.

Wang Hucheng, who is also the adopted son of the city lord's mansion, is just because he is related to a steward in the mansion and understands the world, so he has some rights to assign tasks to others.

This guy relies on this right to often show off his power and accept bribes from others, and for a guy like Han You who "doesn't know how to be filial", he naturally doesn't have a good face, and most of the dirty work is handed over to people like him.

Wang Hucheng stared at the person standing in front of him with a hint of surprise, and immediately wanted to hold his head high and put on a stand, but after inexplicably meeting Han You's eyes, his momentum was a little weaker.

Subconsciously swallowed his saliva and took half a step back to keep his distance.

I muttered to myself.

In the past, this Han You was the easiest to bully and be afraid of things, but somehow now he looks like he is like those recruited guests in the mansion or even a little worse, which makes him feel inexplicable palpitations, and some of the original cruel words are blocked in his throat and can't come out.

"Ahem, you picked up the second lady's sachet yesterday, which can be regarded as meritorious."

Wang Hucheng pulled a smile, patted him on the shoulder and handed him a small cloth bag.

"Well, these three taels of silver are your reward. For the sake of you and I being the adopted sons of the city lord, I sent it to you early in the morning. ”

"Three taels of silver?"

Han You didn't expect that the other party was sending money to him.

It's good not to extort yourself as usual.

Three taels in this world is about equivalent to three thousand yuan in modern times, and it's not bad to earn so much just by picking up a sachet.

I took the cloth bag and weighed it gently, it was probably some small pieces of silver, and the weight should be about the same.

"Then you'll have to work for you."

"You're welcome." Wang Hucheng grinned, "And you have merit, you don't have to do the rough work in these two days, and in a few days it will be the city lord's examination day, you might as well go to the practice room to practice." ”

"Look at your arm, it's as thin as a bamboo pole......"

He deliberately patted Han You's shoulder with a little strength, but it turned out that he had strong muscles, and he couldn't say the rest of the sentence.

Han Youyan said that this guy doesn't have a good temper on weekdays, but at this time, he sent him timely rain, and he didn't refuse at the moment, and thanked him.

However, after Wang Hucheng waited for him to walk away, he looked at the back of him leaving, checked a waist card in his hand, and showed a suspicious look.

"It's weird, this kid was beaten up yesterday, and today I thought that even if I didn't have half a life, at least I wouldn't be able to get out of bed, and I might not even need to get out of bed if I was scared and scared."

"It turned out to be a good look, could it be that those idiots beat the wrong person last night?"

After thinking about it, he didn't have a clue, and he didn't care much, anyway, the goal had been achieved.

"It's fooled, you can give Young Master Liu Chen an errand!"

"The practice room is far away from the second lady's side, so there should be no chance for this kid this time."

There is also a class distinction between adopted sons, Han You's predecessor is the bottom, and if the upper class is appreciated by the city lord, he can even change his surname to Liu, and he is only one step away from becoming the real young master of the Liu family!

Liu Chen is one of them, and he can be regarded as the "young master" of this faction that Wang Hucheng is loyal to.

The sachet that Han You picked up and returned to the second miss yesterday was not simple, it was actually an important relic left by the second miss's biological mother, so the lost sachet made the second miss particularly surprised, and she was very grateful to the person who found it.

He gave him a reward of fifty taels of silver, and he wanted to invite this benefactor to dinner as a token of gratitude!

However, she only learned from the maid that it was an adopted son in the house who found the sachet, but she didn't know who it was, so she entrusted her steward to find someone.

Wang Hucheng, who learned of this, immediately took it into account, and came up with a strategy of "stealing beams and changing pillars".

Young Master Liu Chen was already interested in the second lady, and this opportunity to offer flowers to the Buddha may be able to promote a "beautiful thing"!

And if Liu Chen can become the aunt of the Liu family, then his status as a dog-legged man will naturally rise!

He shook his head, smiled, and went to report the good news in high spirits.

……

At this time, Han You had already come to the practice room.

The area of the practice room is about the size of half a football field, the walls are full of all kinds of weapons, and there are many exercise equipment such as wooden targets on the ground.

It's still early for him to arrive, and there are only a dozen or so shirtless strong men here who are humming and exercising.

Among them, the arms of the most robust people are even thicker than Han You's thighs, and those exaggerated muscles seem to have extremely explosive power!

However, Han You only glanced at it and didn't look at it much.

It's just a spectacle.

The real strong muscles are restrained, and they will explode instantly when needed. This kind of exaggerated muscle looks fierce, but in fact, the fighting force is soft and useless.

However, there are a few of them who are teaching boxing, and it seems that it should be Yue Kong Fist, which attracted a little attention from him.

But that's just a little bit.

Even the person who taught him only practiced to the fifth layer, and those few practiced to less than the fourth layer, and his fist was extremely weak and full of flaws in his eyes.

After two glances, it attracted the attention of the person who was teaching.

jumped out of the ring, walked in front of Han You, and said with a smile.

"You're also the adopted son of the house, but you've encountered a bottleneck in your boxing practice? As long as a tael of silver a month, I can teach you. ”

"I also know the situation of your adopted sons in the mansion, if your martial arts can be a little more advanced, at least you can have more self-protection power."

Seeing that Han You didn't seem to have the idea of wavering, he casually asked someone to bring a sturdy wooden stake.

"Look!"

He snorted and threw a punch with ten percent force.

After a muffled sound, a dent about the depth of a finger bone was left on the stake.

He nodded with satisfaction, and in the exclamation of others, he said to Han You proudly:

"This wood is called black ironwood, and it is so hard that it is difficult for ordinary people to leave traces on it, even if they hold a sword. Sooner or later, you will be able to do that under my teaching. ”

Han You wanted to say that there were still a lot of things to be improved in your power skills just now, but when he remembered his identity, he still chose to shut up.

And his move was also thought by the other party to be hesitant, and was about to continue to persuade.

A voice came from not far away.

"Chen Jiaotou, don't waste your efforts. I know this person, he is so poor that he can't even afford to eat meat on weekdays, and his monthly salary is only enough to eat, where is the money to learn martial arts! ”
