In the past few days, because he has not fully adapted to this new environment and his new identity, after taking off the gauze on his head, Wu Zhi still used the excuse that his injury is not completely healed and his head hurts a little (in fact, it is almost better), so he has been staying at home, not going to private school, and no longer practicing martial arts, he still needs time to slowly ease and adapt.

Originally, Wu Zhi didn't need to go to a private school after becoming a Xiucai, and the old gentleman estimated that he couldn't teach anything, but Wu Xiu continued to ask him to go to a private school to study for the sake of solemnity.

Yesterday, he took the time to take a shower, and felt that taking a bath was really a troublesome thing, not as easy and comfortable as before he was reborn. But when he took a bath, he found that this Wu Zhi's body was still very good, because of years of martial arts practice, he found that his body was strong and long, the muscle lines were obvious, and he was quite satisfied.

Every day I went to bed early and got up early, after enjoying some "modern" brushing my teeth, and after breakfast, Wu Zhi either went to the small study to see how to write and write, or walked slowly in the small courtyard, and sometimes walked out of the house, walking slowly, familiar with the surrounding environment. Sometimes when he saw Feng Niang and Xiao'e busy working, he also wanted to go over to help, but every time he was driven away by Feng Niang, saying that this was not what he should do, and every time he was very embarrassed, he could only stand awkwardly and watch, doing nothing.

When he is not busy, Xiao'e will also accompany him happily, sometimes quietly accompany him to read books, add some tea from time to time, and help tidy up the study; Sometimes I accompany him to go outside for a walk and talk. The thin figure is like a lark, which can always bring happiness to Wu Zhi.

Second Uncle Wu is in and out every day, and he is very busy. There is a lot of farm work in the field, and he can't cultivate a dozen acres of land alone, so he needs to hire hired workers, so he needs to take care of and supervise the cultivation of the tenants, and sometimes help others do some small work to earn a little money. It's hard to see him every day, and only at dinner time can we get together to have a meal, talk together, look at him very tired, but not much decadent and depressed.

He is very concerned about Wu Zhi's injury, and when he sees Wu Zhi, he will ask, and he will be relieved when he sees that there is no major problem. Wu Zhi didn't dare to say that it was already good, and he didn't dare to say it too seriously, so he replied to him ambiguously, as long as he wasn't suspicious. Because Feng Niang and Xiao'e often ask, this is also for them to hear, so that they can feel at ease.

In this way, after a few days of running-in and getting along, Wu Zhi gradually began to adapt to his new body and identity, and gradually became familiar with Uncle Wu's family, no longer had the embarrassment and discomfort at the beginning, and naturally integrated into their lives, and also felt their simplicity and kindness. He began to treat them as his own relatives, especially doting on Xiao'e, treating her as his own sister, wanting to hold her and take care of her.

The road knows the horsepower, and the people will see it for a long time. After getting along in the past few days, by combing through the memories, Wu Zhi has a more real and comprehensive understanding and feeling of Second Uncle Wu's family.

Wu Xiu, the second eldest in the martial family, is only forty years old this year, four years younger than Wu Zhi's father, and the reason why he looks old is because of his hard work. He also read when he was a child, and he was also smart, and he could read and write, but because Wu Zhi's grandfather died early, the family situation became increasingly difficult and embarrassing, in order to provide Wu Zhi's father Wu Zhi to study and gain fame, he dropped out of school at the age of sixteen and went home to help his grandmother work. At that time, his elder brother Takeshi was better at studying, so he had been shouldering the hope of revitalizing the samurai family, and the samurai family wanted to rely on Takeshi to glorify the lintel, so it was decided that his brother Takeshi would participate in the scientific expedition in order to fulfill the family's dream. He had to drop out of school and go home to help his grandmother take care of the family's more than 20 acres of land.

Relying on the hard work of his grandmother and Wu Xiu, he cultivated wheat and millet (millet) in more than 20 acres of thin fields, and the harvest in the previous fields was not very good, and the taxes to be paid were also high, and the remuneration paid to the tenants was removed. Wu Zhi is also diligent in his studies, and he was admitted to Xiucai early, but unfortunately he fell to Sun Shan in several major examinations once every three years, and he had no choice but to be a teacher in a private school in his hometown (in the Song Dynasty, the teacher in the private school was called a teacher, isn't it amazing?). He supported his family on the salary of teaching.

Wu Zhi's grandfather was still a good manager when he was alive, and he was also a showman, but he had some business acumen, collected and stored more than 50 acres of land before and after, tenanted some farmers as helpers, and had no worries about food and clothing. But unfortunately, he contracted typhoid fever and died at the age of thirty-five, and Zhuangzhi died before he was paid, leaving only orphans and widows, when Wu Zhi was only thirteen years old and Wu Xiu was only nine years old.

The family lost its pillars, just like the divine dragon was pulled out of the dragon's back, and the martial arts family collapsed.

Because Wu Zhi's grandmother was from a small family, she was not well versed in the world, and she was not good at management, so the family began to gradually decline. When Wu Zhi was twenty years old, the family could not afford to support the two brothers to study together, and at the age of sixteen, Wu Xiu had to drop out of school and go home to help his grandmother work. In order to make a living, more than 50 acres of land can only be sold for money, and slowly it will become less, and only more than 20 acres of land remain.

Wu Zhi, the word Zimin, the boss of the martial arts family, although he usually studies very hard, he is obviously not the material to be able to pass the Jinshi. Since he became a Xiucai at the age of sixteen, he began to take the big exam, and he failed Sun Shan four times in a row, so he had no choice but to go to the village private school to become a teacher to support his family. In the same year, Wu Zhiying married Wu Zhi's mother Wang Shi Yunying, a person from Wangjiazhuang in Qinghe County, Enzhou, the youngest daughter of a small landlord's family, who was well-read and knowledgeable, and gave birth to Xiao Wuzhi in the second year after marriage. The following year, Wu Xiu also got married, married Feng Niang from Qinjia Village, Gucheng County, Linxian County, and only had Xiao'e three years later.

After the two brothers Wu Zhi and Wu Xiu got married, there were still more than 20 acres of land at home, and there were quite a lot of seven or eight houses in the small courtyard. Wu Zhi taught, Wu cultivated farming, and with the concerted efforts of the two brothers, the martial arts family began to gradually improve, and Xiao Wuzhi and Xiao'e were able to spend their happy childhood carefree.

In March, when Wu Zhi was eight years old and the grass grew and the warbler flew, his grandmother, who was in her fifties, died of illness. In the summer of this year, there was a middle-aged man who came from Tongguan, Huazhou, Shaanxi Province to travel to Hebei Province and called himself Zhou Tong to stay at a martial arts house. He stayed comfortably in the martial arts house for more than half a month, and saw that Xiao Wuzhi was smart and clever, so he taught him boxing when he had time, and also taught him some methods of exhaling and nourishing qi. Children like novelty and love to imitate and explore, so Xiao Wuzhi began to worship literature and martial arts, and has a great interest in learning and practicing martial arts. On weekdays, he reads and practices calligraphy with his father Wuzhi from time to time, and from time to time he fights boxing and exercises to breathe and recuperate, and he has a very happy life.

It's a pity that people are not good for 100 days, and flowers are not red for 100 days. When Takeshi was more than eight years old, in the late autumn of the year his grandmother died, his father, Takeshi, died of illness. has not come out of his grief, and the following year, his mother Yunying also became ill due to depression and left him!

The heavy blows that followed made Xiao Wuzhi begin to become taciturn, and he liked to hide everything in his heart and not talk to others. So when Wu Xiu and Feng Niang saw him take the initiative to get close to Xiao'e and peel eggs for Xiao'e to eat, they were surprised and surprised.

After the death of his parents, Wu Xiu and Feng Niang took on the responsibility of raising him and treated him as their own. For the glory of the family, and in order to fulfill his father's will, he gritted his teeth and sent him to the village private school to study. In order to arrange the funeral of his parents and the restraint and payment of fees for his school, the family had to sell a few acres of land, and now there are only a dozen acres of land left, and life is becoming more and more difficult.

The burden of life was completely on Wu Xiu's shoulders, which made him prematurely old, and at the age of forty, he looked like he was in his fifties, his hair was a little gray, and his face was full of vicissitudes.

Aunt Qin's family, named Feng Niang, is two years younger than Wu Xiu, is a person from Qinjia Village, Gucheng County, Linxian County next door, a small family, but she has also read a little bit since she was a child, can read and hyphenate, reasonable, dignified Zhou Zheng with a bit of delicateness, medium stature, ingenuity, female workers do well, cooking skills are also very good, is a kind and simple, diligent and thrifty good woman.

She usually takes care of the lives of Wu Xiu, Wu Zhi and Xiao'e, and from time to time she also goes to the village to pick up some needlework outside the village, and earns some money to supplement the family by helping the surrounding neighbors sew and repair, which can also help Wu Xiu reduce the burden of life.

Wu Xiu usually works in the farmland or works part-time outside, and does not have much time to discipline Wu Zhi, Wu Zhi's usual studies can only be supervised and supervised by Feng Niang, and Wu Zhi is treated like his own children, treating them equally, reluctant to beat or scold. The weight of life also made her temples a little gray, her forehead was also engraved with some wrinkles, her face was not fair, and her fingers became a little rough, but she did not lose her confidence in life, and she was not always full of gloom on weekdays. In the two days and two nights when Wu Zhi fell and fell into a coma, she was always worried about tea and dinner, and she was very worried, until Wu Zhi "woke up" and smiled, relieved.

On weekdays, in addition to reading and studying, Wu Zhi often finds some time to teach Xiao'e to read and write. The little cousin who is four years younger than him has no feelings of sadness due to her young age, and usually likes to play with him and is tired of being by his side. When he was studying, she would sit quietly next to him and watch him read and write, and sometimes she would clumsily help him polish the ink, tidy up the table, plaster, make up some tea, etc., and there were many people who helped, Wu Zhi generally left her alone, and he really liked him, an innocent little cousin, and let her come to him. Although he later became silent because of the death of his parents, he never showed impatience, and still followed her and followed her as always.

Xiao'e is also smart and clever, although she has not been to a private school for a day (but she has been to the private school a few times, Wu Zhi has taken her to the private school a few times, and she is also full of yearning for the private school), but under the teaching of Wu Xiu and Wu Zhi, she has been exposed to it, and by the age of thirteen, she can recognize a lot of words, read many books, and write a good hand, which can be regarded as a little talented girl. It's just that the family background is not very good, he hasn't grown up at the age of thirteen, and he is a little thin, and Wu Zhi who saw it felt a faint pain in his heart and felt pity.

This is Uncle Wu's family, they use their forbearance, kindness and love to support Wu Zhi forward, with their silk dedication to soothe Wu Zhi's injured heart, teach him the truth of life, although he used to become a little gloomy and silent, but also did not lose love, enthusiasm and gratitude, and his temperament was still stoic and assertive. In this way, under the care of Wu Xiu and Feng Niang, Wu Zhi slowly came out of the grief and heart knot of losing his father and mother, and slowly grew up.

In March this year, Wu Zhi, who was not yet 17 years old, passed the selection examination for the spring county school examination and became a showman. At that time, Second Uncle Wu's whole family was overjoyed that he had become a showman, and felt that the hope of the martial arts family was one step closer.

Wu Zhi has watched Wu Xiu go in and out in the past few days, watching Feng Niang's hard work morning and evening, and watching Xiao'e people help and laugh, he feels that he is really happy, and he is also glad that he has crossed into a good person's house.

For this reason, Wu Zhi secretly swore and warned himself: "He is Wu Zhi Wu Dalang, they are all his relatives, he must cherish them in the future, protect them, never let them be hurt in the slightest, and must let them live a rich and comfortable life in the future!" ”
