Chapter 10: There is a sea needle at home
Chen Dingxian's home is a courtyard house with no front seat, a total of eight rooms. It can't be compared with the middle class, it can only be regarded as a small family.
As soon as he arrived at the door, although he was helpless in all kinds of pain, Chen Dingxian had long been accustomed to carrying it alone, not letting his mother worry about himself. As soon as he entered his mother's room, he shouted loudly, "Mother! I'm back.".
Chen's mother's surname is Luo, and she is taking the soles of her shoes, no matter how hard she works, as long as she hears her son's voice, she is not tired at all. Turning his head in response, "Xiaosheng is back.", still doing his job.
Xiaoji is Chen Dingxian's nickname, and his parents are afraid that their son will not be able to raise him, so he goes to the temple to ask for a sign and has to eat other people's food. So I was fostered at a friend's house for a while. I really responded to the thought, Chen Dingxian has never been sick or disaster, and now he has a successful career, and it is the Bodhisattva who is blessing. Therefore, there is Guanyin Bodhisattva at home, and Chen Luo has to burn incense every day to worship, sincerely.
"This is a gift from Hou Ye to my mother, Hou Ye values me very much!", said and shook the gift box in front of his mother a few times, and put it on the table in front of his mother.
Chen Luo just glanced at it, he knew Chen Dehuai too well, but his son was useful to him now, otherwise he wouldn't look down on him at all. didn't want to ruin his son's interest, and smiled, "Take one for my mother to taste, I haven't eaten the pastries of our Hou Mansion for many years.".
Chen Dingxian smiled and untied the pastry box, took a piece of pastry in his hand, and delivered it to his mother's mouth with his own hands.
It was still the mother who understood her thoughts, and Chen Ding nodded first, "My son will go tomorrow!".
"Don't you still have to practice tomorrow?, or mom!", this little bit of bits and pieces wants his son to come forward, Chen Luoshi feels that it is not worth it, and then what to say to whom, his son does not understand.
Chen Dingxian didn't want to go, but he breathed a sigh of relief after listening to his mother's words, and didn't make a sound, just nodded.
"How about the match with Yunyang Shizi?", Chen Luoshi still hasn't forgotten what her son said to him yesterday, it seems that she cares about the result of today's game.
"Lost!", Chen Dingxian's voice replied in a very depressed voice, and he really couldn't lift his spirits, especially for his mother, who regretted him.
Chen Luo's heart had expected this situation for a long time, and he was not surprised." You are busy practicing every day, and Yunyang Shizi has been practicing bowing since he was a child, and it is normal to lose. Is it difficult for you?".
This is what his mother cares about, Chen Dingxian hesitated for a while, and in order to make his mother feel relieved, he walked behind her and pressed her shoulders, "No!" Uncle Qiang has a student who is an expert in bowing, and the situation will change after joining.".
I can't know Chen Qinqiang and Chen Luo's family any better, and the people he introduces will not be far behind." No matter what that person is, you have to behave well, even if your skills are poor, you must also have the ability to take charge of the overall situation and adapt to changes, so that you can mention to Hou Ye about staying in the capital to serve."
Chen Dingxian thought very much about tempering at the border pass, but he couldn't bear to leave his lonely mother in Beijing. This is also the reason why I dare not be stubborn with my mother. Regretfully responded: "My son understands! I mentioned this matter again, and Master Hou reassured me that there should be no problem.".
Only he knows best, and he is telling the truth, but things are unpredictable, and it will be even more difficult to miss this martial arts change in the capital, and then want to find a position in Beijing. Chen Luo's expression was sad, "This matter is not in a hurry, my mother told you, you have to keep an eye on it at a critical time. Never mind! Mom will remind you.".
Chen Dingxian just didn't understand that what the Marquis of Qingyuan promised would change. But it was not easy to contradict his mother, so he agreed, "I listen to my mother!", and his hands were still massaging his mother.
The son was considerate of himself, and he pressed Chen Luo very comfortably, and couldn't help but put down the needle and thread, so that his son could continue to enjoy. After a while, I was still worried, "Not only you newcomers, but also old protégés who have been taking care of them for many years, there are more monks and less porridge, and my mother is really relieved.", he sighed softly.
Therefore, the old protégés are not something that their mother and son can know, just these newcomers, Chen Luo has analyzed them with Chen Dingxian. Hu Xiyu is the eighth grandson of Hu Zhengkang, the founder of Qin, and his father is Hu Luzhen, the current Duke of Qin, and he is married to Ni Yushang, the seventh granddaughter of the Marquis of Jiading, and the relationship is naturally not ordinary. Although the Qin State Mansion was sold to the Marquis of Qingyuan and made the Marquis of Qingyuan, it did not affect the relationship between the two families. It was just the fall of the Duke of Qin, who could only sell his ancestral business, and there were many wealthy families who wanted to buy at that time, and they were sold because of the good relationship with the Qingyuan Marquis, so the relationship between the two families was never cold. Otherwise, as Hu Xiyu, who is the next generation of Qin Guogong, his martial arts and bowing are not bad, how can he deign to go to the Marquis of Qingyuan to strike bow. If you can't stay in Beijing as you wish, as soon as the Qin State Mansion pours bitter water, the gossip of the nobles in the capital will flood the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng are the nephews of Chen Dehuai's wife's mother's family, and when the woman's pillow is blown by the wind, the hope left behind is greater than that of Chen Dingxian. There are also some who don't know the details, who would have expected to win without surprise, and the desire of a cadre and others will come to naught.
The scenery in front of people and the hardships behind them are the yin and yang sides of life, and the helplessness can only be borne by themselves. Chen Dingxian could only minimize his mother's worries, and said with his face against his mother's hair; "I won't let my mother down!".
It was enough to have this sentence, Chen Luoshi raised his right hand and stroked his son's head, which was regarded as believing him.
The next day, Chen Dingxian went to the training ground in the south of the city early in the morning, got off the horse, and never thought that there was already a person waiting at the gate outside the village, and a horse was tied to the stone pillar not far away. Chen Dingxian wanted to take the first step, arrange the obstacles and targets for the practice, and increase the difficulty of the practice, but the person in front of him surprised him.
"The person who came is Chen Shao, in Xia Tangtong, he is a subordinate of Chen Qin's powerful people.", the man hugged his fists and greeted first.
Chen Dingxian took a closer look at this person, he was in his thirties with dark skin, handsome appearance, and a zigzag scar on the right side of his face. Yesterday, the Marquis of Qingyuan did not tell the name of the person who came from Xuanfu, and after listening to the detailed self-introduction, he was sure that it was this person. waved his hand and said: "It's exactly below!" Brother Tang came so early.", then I thought that I didn't even ask the other party's name yesterday, but fortunately the other party made it clear first, otherwise I would have lost a large share.
"Yesterday, the Marquis of Qingyuan asked me to come earlier, I was afraid that I would not be able to find it for a while, so I went out of the city as soon as I opened the city gate, but fortunately I didn't take many detours to find it, and I didn't have to wait long to arrive.", Tang Tong smiled and didn't see fatigue.
Chen Ding first saw that he was saying kind words, at least for half an hour, and he didn't have to care about what his intentions were. Holding the horse and waving, "Let's go in together!".
That Tang Tong smiled and nodded, went to lead his horse, and soon followed, and entered the village back and forth. There is still some distance to the driving range, and the two will soon be in parallel. Chen Ding opened his mouth first, "As soon as Brother Tang arrives, we will have confidence, and we will rely on Brother Tang in the future!".
"The main thing about bowing is the cooperation between four people, no matter how powerful one person is, it is in vain, and he has to rely on the brothers.".
I never thought that this was a sensible person, and I didn't boast to myself, "Brother Tang must have been through a hundred battles, I don't know what position he lives in now?".
"Mr. Xiaoqian! It's not worth mentioning in this Nuoda capital.", there is no background in speaking, and he knows how to be low-key.
"Next year's list is a four-grade master, don't look down on yourself!", Chen Ding cheered him up first, and couldn't help thinking in his heart that it would take a few years for him to surpass, and he would definitely cross him.
"I hope so! The most important thing at the moment is to play a good bow game, Chen Shao! Isn't it?", Tang Tong turned his head to look at him and said.
"That's right! Then it depends on Brother Tang!", he stepped forward and patted Tang Tong on the shoulder.
Tang Tong just smiled and didn't answer his words. Chen Ding first saw that he was a doer, and this competition was equally important to him, whether it was fame or career, it was the time to show his talents.
When he arrived at the practice ground, Chen Dingxian was busy directing Zhuang Ding to place obstacles, and he also did it himself. Tang Tong just watched from the sidelines, at first a little blind, and then after he understood, he went to the side to feed the horse and comb the horse's mane.
Towards the end, five people leading horses came in front and back, gathered around Chen Dingxian, and greeted each other. Chen Ding waved his hand at Tang Tong first, and Tang Tong quickly moved closer. First introduce Tang Channel: "This is Tang Tong, the general official of Xuanfu.".
Tang Tong nodded to everyone, the five of them have no martial arts, and they can climb up to the top five products in Xuanfu, if they don't have fame, they are all killed by real knives, and they can be known from the scars on their faces, and they all look at Tang Tong differently.
"This is Hu Xiyu, the prince of Qin, who has the best martial arts and bowing among us!", Chen Dingxian pointed to one person and said.
Tang Tong hugged his fists politely, "I have admired the name for a long time!".
named Hu Xiyu, twenty-five or sixteen years old, with an average appearance and a strong physique, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he can deal with three or five ordinary people. This person in front of him is an expert in fighting, and he is his own kind. Hu Xiyu respectfully clenched his fists in return, and asked unceremoniously: "I don't know if Tang Qian has a good time playing with bowing?"
"It shouldn't be too much worse than Lan Tingshu, if we practice more formations and cooperate tacitly, it's not that we don't have a chance to win the Yunyang Hou team.", Tang Tong is not polite to the people who will inherit Qin Guogong in the future, and he doesn't talk muddy.
This person's martial arts are naturally not weak, but when it comes to bowing, Hu Xiyu thinks that he is talking big. So he sneered: "Then it's up to Brother Tang!", the respectful expression just now disappeared all of a sudden.
"Tang Qian's chief teacher inherited from my uncle Chen Qinqiang, and the bow was also passed down by my uncle.", Chen Dingxian saw Hu Xiyu's arrogance and hurriedly explained solemnly. Originally, Hu Xiyu relied on himself to be stronger in all aspects, and he didn't respect the leader Chen Dingxian, and he finally had someone who pressed him, how could he not let Chen Dingxian secretly rejoice, and deliberately brought out his uncle Chen Qinqiang.
Chen Qinqiang is a legendary figure in the capital, when the martial champion and the first, the bow skills are outstanding, and the other three teams are convinced. Since he has been taught by him, the bow must not be of an ordinary level. Hu Xiyu was dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say. The other four admired the person in front of them even more.
Then Chen Dingxian introduced: "This Guangdong lifter Yang Weibiao, the second best among us.".
"Chen Shao, don't laugh, you are much better than me.", as soon as Chen Dingxian's words were finished, Yang Weibiao immediately smiled and corrected, and he looked like a sincere person. The age is not two years different from Hu Xiyu, but he has the same dark face as Tang Tong, and at first glance he looks like he is from a place.
"This is his fellow countryman Zhang Yicheng, and it's not bad!".
is called Zhang Yicheng, his skin is much whiter, but he looks old." In the past few years, I was about the same as Weibiao, but in recent years, I have neglected to practice.", it seems that his relationship with Yang Weibiao is quite good.
Tang Tong hugged his fists at the two, and the two of them also hugged their fists in return.
"These two are Shaanxi Juzi, Yu Jian! Xiang Guozhen! Both of them are martial arts families.", Chen Dingxian continued.
Yu Jian just clenched his fists and didn't make a sound, Xiang Guozhen hugged his fists and said: "The two of us are just making do, much worse than them.".
"It's impossible to improve your skills in a short period of time, you can only work hard from the formation, fortunately, my teacher taught me some formations, if we practice diligently, we will get twice the result with half the effort.", Tang Tong directly cut into the topic, it seems that he is determined to win.
With Chen Qinqiang's role model, the six people believe that Tang Tong has this ability. Chen Dingxian couldn't let Tang Tong take away his qualification as a team leader, and encouraged: "That's right! Organized by me, Brother Tang will teach you, and you will definitely defeat the other teams!". Although the voice was loud, everyone obviously looked down on him, but Chen Dingxian didn't notice it.
"That Chen Shao! Crossing obstacles and hitting targets are not needed for the time being, right?", Tang Tong is quite good at seeing the right time..
The words were already out, Chen Dingxian slapped himself in the mouth, and could only let this morning's efforts be in vain, nodding in agreement, "That's natural!" Everything that listens to Brother Tang, this is what Hou Ye explained.", as soon as the words came out, Chen Dingxian had a premonition that he would gradually lose his authority, and he was very unwilling in his heart.
At this time, the five of them noticed the decorations in the field, which were originally for these, but they could not arouse everyone's interest. If there is a divine gift, the practice formation has been deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone, and I really want to see what the so-called formation is wonderful.
