Because staying by the water, Wen Ran and Shen Bei were taught a good lesson by this old lady, although they were strangers, but in front of this tough old lady, Wen Ran and Shen Bei were both well-behaved like grandsons.

The old lady said that she was tired, and seeing that the two young men were very good, she was not so angry, but finally said: "You also see how deep the water in this river is, and if it falls, it is not a joke."

Wen Ran hurriedly replied, "We know."

Shen Bei also replied: "Got it."

Only then did the old lady's face become more relaxed.

Wen Ran asked politely, "Grandma, do you know which direction the village chief's house is?"

The old lady paused, "You want to find the village chief?" ”

"Yes, we want to ask the village chief about something."

The old lady glanced at Wen Ran and Shen Bei, "The two nobles you came with know each other, right?" ”

Wen Ran said, "Exactly."

The old lady didn't ask any more questions, but pointed in a direction and said, "You go in that direction, and after you have crossed a slope, you will see a locust tree, and not far away is the village chief's house."

Wen Ran thanked the old lady, and when she was about to pull Shen Bei in that direction, the old lady stopped them again.

"You wait."

Wen Ran smiled and said, "Grandma, is there anything else?"

The old lady took out a packet of medicine from the medicine basket, "The village chief is also old, and his body is not good, this is the medicine I prepared for the village chief, since you want to go over, then please bring the medicine over, and save me another trip." ”

Wen Ran didn't refuse this little thing, she thanked the old lady again for her directions, and walked with Shen Bei in the direction that the old woman pointed out before.

After Wen Ran and Shen Bei left, several old people came out of the house on the side of the street, all of them were elderly women.

They watched in the direction the two young men had left, and a certain emotion appeared on their wrinkled faces.

The village is not wealthy, and many of the houses you see along the road are in disrepair.

When he walked to the small hillside, Wen Ran saw a ruined temple.

Shen Bei took Wen Ran's hand and pulled, "Ranran, do you want to rest for a while before leaving?" ”

Wen Ran thought about it, but nodded, "Let's go in and have a look." ”

They walked into this small ruined temple, since it was a ruined temple, it was unworshipped, and it was very dilapidated.

Wen Ran stood in front of the broken stone statue, and he couldn't see the original form, but he didn't know if the idol enshrined here was artificially destroyed, or if it collapsed and broke naturally because no one maintained it.

"Shen Jiaojiao." Wen Ran tugged at his hand, "Can you tell which immortal is enshrined here?" ”

Shen Bei tilted his head and stared at the slanted and broken stone sculpture for a long time, he blinked, "Ran, I can't see it either." ”

The statue is shattered like this, and it's strange to be able to see it.

However, Wen Ran saw a few words from the fallen plaque - "Water Temple".

The god of water?

Wen Ran looked at the broken stone statue again, wondering if it was because the water in this village was not blessed by the water god, so it was smashed.

However, she did appreciate the inscription on the plaque, "This is a powerful word, and I don't know if there are any other literati and artists in this village, or maybe they have found someone from outside to write it." ”

Because she was required to write well when she was a child, Wen Ran knew how difficult it was to write a good hand, and when she saw someone else's handwriting so good, she would inevitably admire one or two.

The person who had always echoed her words remained silent at this time.

Wen Ran looked up, "Shen Jiaojiao?" ”

He pursed his lips, "Ranran, I will practice my words well, and one day, I can also write such beautiful words." ”

Wen Ran smiled, "Writing must be practiced, but you can cope with the exam, you don't like to write, so why force yourself to compare with others?" ”

He looked at her seriously, his dark eyes were full of persistence, "I want to be a better person." ”

"Who told you that a good handwriting is a better person?"

He was a little dazed, and blinked sluggishly, "Aren't everyone people who can praise good handwriting?" ”

"I don't deny that writing a good handwriting is a strength, but you also have your own strengths, for example, you are good at swordsmanship, great swordsmanship, eat a lot, don't waste food, easy to coax, clingy, and pestering people......"

The more she talked, the more wrong the content became.

But when she said it, she looked very serious, as if those things that were not worth mentioning were really his merits.

Shen Bei asked in a low voice: "Eating a lot, is it also a strength?"

"That's nature, don't you grow taller if you eat more?"

"Ran Ran also said that I was easy to coax ......"

"Yes, you are easy to coax, that means that you are broad-hearted, you will not care, and you are too easy to get along with people like you!"

Shen Bei pursed his lips, only to restrain the arc of the corners of his lips to rise, he hooked her little thumb, lowered his head and said vaguely: "Ran Ran also said that I am clingy, that I am entangled......"

"This means that you are endearing and painful." Wen Ran raised his face and said seriously: "I won't lie, you said that you have so many advantages, why do you want to compare with others?" If you have to learn everything, what do you let others do? Shen Jiaojiao, give others a way to live! ”

Shen Bei interlocked his fingers with her, and he nodded heavily, "Ran Ran is right, if I learn everything, then others will have no advantage in being able to do it, and they won't be able to get a daughter-in-law." ”

Where did he learn this?

Wen Ran was relieved to see that he was happy, and with a smile, she stretched out her other hand and poked his chest, "So you have to give me confidence in the future, you will have a lot of things, not to mention others, anyway, in my eyes, no one in this world can compare to you." ”

With joy in his eyebrows, he let out a soft "um", then grabbed her hand and put it on his face.

"Then let's move on."

"Okay."

Shen Bei, who was praised, was particularly well-behaved at this time, Wen Ran asked him to go east, he would definitely not go west, and even after walking out of the broken temple, he could excitedly introduce himself to Wen Ran the advantages she didn't mention.

"Ranran, I will pick the fruit, even if we live in the wild, I will never let you go hungry."

"I also catch pheasants and fish...... Whatever you want to eat, I can catch it. ”

"Also, I'm fighting very well, I'm going to try not to let others beat me, and Ranran's mating rights are mine...... Not! ”

She covered his mouth, "Enough! I know you're amazing! You can shut up! ”
