Chapter I: The Prohibition of Force
"Disciple rules, sage training. The first filial piety, the second sincere letter.
Pan love the public, and kindness. If you have spare energy, you will learn literature. A childish voice came out of the house.
A teenage child is sitting upright in the room, holding a worn-out book and reading hard.
"Xiaobao, Xiaobao. The woman shouted as she walked.
The children hurriedly put the books in order and walked outside. I saw the woman beckoning to the child at the kitchen door, and the child walked in the direction of the woman.
"Mother, is there anything wrong?" the child asked his mother.
"Don't sit every day, it's not good for your health, just walk around more if it's okay, go to the street to help my mother get some salt and come back. As she spoke, the woman handed the salt shaker to the child and took out some copper plates.
The child took the copper plate, "Mother, then I'm leaving!", and the child hurried out of the house with the salt shaker.
"Slow down, don't fall!" the woman's voice came from behind, and the child slowed down.
The street is lively and lively, filled with a smell of New Year.
Red lanterns were hung in every house, and the sound of artillery could be heard from time to time in the distance.
Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and after Chinese New Year's Eve, it will be a new year.
"Uncle Huang, my mother asked me to buy salt. Xiaobao shouted to Uncle Huang, who was sitting on a rattan chair in the store, leisurely.
"Come on. Uncle Huang got up and walked towards Xiaobao, who hurriedly handed him the salt shaker in his hand.
Uncle Huang took the salt shaker into the house, and after a short time came out and handed the jar full of salt to Xiaobao.
"How much is it, Uncle Huang. Xiaobao asked him.
Uncle Huang stretched out his hand and drew three fingers towards Xiaobao.
Xiaobao took out his pocket, took the three pennies and handed it to Uncle Huang, and ran home in a hurry. Uncle Huang is notoriously moody, he was amiable to you in the last second, and he changed his face at any time in the next second, and Xiao Bao didn't dare to stay longer.
"Xiaobao, Xiaobao, come and play a cannon fight!" a group of grizzled boys ran towards Xiaobao.
"Okay, okay, I'll take the salt home first, I'll come over right away, you wait for me!" Xiaobao agreed, and couldn't wait to run in the direction of home.
"Mother, mother. Salt bought back. As soon as he crossed the threshold of the house, Xiaobao hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice.
"Come, come, you see you're always so frizzy. The woman took the salt shaker, and Xiaobao couldn't wait to run out.
Seeing this, the woman said in a loud voice, "Wait, wipe your sweat first." The woman took a cloth and helped Xiaobao wipe the sweat stains from her head.
"Mother, wait and sweat again, don't wipe it, I'll take a shower when I get back." The woman rubbed it with great care and force. Xiaobao couldn't stand it a little, and hurriedly ran out of the door after dodging.
"Be careful, look at the road, there are a lot of people on the street. As soon as he left the door, the woman's voice came from behind him.
Xiao Baotou didn't reply, and responded loudly, "I know." ā
"Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang, how many more, are there any help to keep them?" Xiao Bao waved his hand at the little friend on the street and shouted loudly.
"There's another one, reserved for you, that's interesting enough. Da Zhuang handed Xiaobao half a stick of incense and a cannon fight.
Xiaobao took the cannon handed over by Da Zhuang, put it in his hand and looked at it, and suddenly said with some disappointment, "That's it?"
"Let's let it go, we're waiting to hear a sound!" Da Zhuang urged, pulling Xiaobao's clothes.
Xiaobao took the cannonball, walked to the side, and put it on the ground. Cautiously holding a half-burnt incense, he slowly approached the artillery battle.
Zi...!lit, Xiaobao covered his ears and ran to the side.
Xiao Bao returned to Da Zhuang's side and stared at the artillery battle ahead.
"Bang!" with a loud bang, debris sputtered in all directions.
"Oh! Which innocent bastard scared the old lady to death. Before Xiaobao and the others had time to be happy, there was a scolding voice in front of them. Hearing the sound, Xiaobao knew who it was. Xiaobao looked at Da Zhuang, "It's over, your aunt." ā
Da Zhuang had already heard it, and couldn't help shouting, "Run!"
There was an angry roar behind him, "It's just a few of you, don't go, today I want to see which bastards are so bold." "Before the people arrived, the momentum had already arrived.
"Run!" Da Zhuang shouted to Xiaobao and them, and fled into the distance.
They ran very fast, because of the practice of martial arts, but Xiaobao has been weak since he was a child, and his family is not a rich and noble family, there is no panacea, and Xiaobao's mother herself does not allow him to practice martial arts.
When they were strong and disappeared from Xiaobao's sight, Xiaobao reflected.
Just as he wanted to run, a huge force came from behind him, and Xiaobao's whole person rose into the air.
Xiaobao turned his head and saw the angry and angry aunt glaring at him, Xiaobao just wanted to open his mouth and the aunt opened up angrily, "Okay! Who should I be, Xiaobao, go to your house and reason." "Carry Xiaobao to Xiaobao's house.
On the eaves in the distance, the thin figure said to the tall man regretfully, "Brother Zhuang, Brother Xiao Bao is finished." ā
Da Zhuang scratched his head, "Oh, why didn't the little monkey bring your little brother Bao? After Da Zhuang finished speaking, he patted the little monkey's head.
The little monkey covered his head and said aggrievedly, "Brother Zhuang, the situation is urgent! And my small body can't carry Brother Xiaobao." ā
"Forget it, forget it, I'm going to go home quickly, Xiaobao was arrested, the eldest aunt must know that there is still me, I'll go to the house first and wait for it, and carry it with Xiaobao." Da Zhuang scratched his head, got up and ran home.
"Then Iā" Before the little monkey's words could be spoken, he couldn't see the big strong figure.
Goo~, a cry came from the stomach, "I can only go home to eat!" The little leather monkey jumped off the eaves and jumped along the way.
"Little Bao Niang, little Bao Niang. The big aunt carried Xiaobao, and as soon as she arrived in the yard, she shouted into the house at the top of her voice.
"Who's coming!" Mother's voice came from the kitchen.
She put Xiaobao down, and Xiaobao, who was caught, couldn't think about running anymore. can only stand aside in a proper manner, waiting for the big and strong aunt to complain to his mother.
The woman walked out of the kitchen, and with a glance, she roughly knew that Xiaobao was in trouble again, "Big fat mother, what's wrong? So angry? Did the dog make you angry?"
"Well, no, I almost didn't die in the street. It's too careless, people come and go playing artillery battles on the road. She chattered on and on.
"Look at you, don't apologize to people soon. The woman glared at Xiaobao.
Xiaobao turned to her, "Auntie, I'm sorry." He bowed when he finished speaking.
"Humph!" she snorted.
The woman looked at Xiaobao sternly, "Go to the house and punish you for copying the Analects fifty times." After speaking, he secretly winked at Xiaobao, Xiaobao understood what his mother meant, and let him leave here, not really a punishment.
"Okay, mother. Xiaobao nodded and walked towards the back room.
"Come, big fat lady, let's go inside and drink some water. The woman took the big fat lady and walked into the house.
Xiaobao sat on a chair with his head in his hands. Staring out the window in distress, looking at the lake in the distance.
Da Zhuang can't run away, so you should go to Da Zhuang's house later! Thinking of this, I don't know why I thought of Da Zhuang's appearance of complaining to me later, and there was a smile on my lips.
Coo~, an owl flew in front of Xiaobao. He reached out and stroked its head, and it lay meekly on its side. I know it wants me to touch its belly. After playing with the little guy for a while, Xiaobao took down the letter at his feet: Huang Zhijun, tomorrow (7 o'clock in the morning to 9 o'clock in the morning), the old place is waiting for me. (Xiaobao is my nickname, and the correct name is Huang Zhijun.) Although the content of the letter was unremarkable, the writing contained great power, and the words on the note were slightly cracked, which was to vent her anger.
"Mimi, has your master been in a bad temper lately?" Xiaobao stroked the owl's belly and asked tentatively.
It rolled over, stood up, and nodded humanly.
Seeing its affirmation, Xiaobao muttered in his heart. Do you want to go? Do you want to go? I must feel better! If I don't go, but I will be torn to pieces. After thinking about it in my heart, I decided to agree to her, after all, I may not have seen her for a long time, and I miss it very much.
Write the letter and put it on the letterhead on Mimi's feet, "Go quickly, don't let the master wait." The owl listened to Xiaobao's words, it jumped out of the window, stopped, and looked at Xiaobao, Xiaobao smiled and nodded at it, and then it fluttered its wings and disappeared into Xiaobao's sight.
"Xiaobao, Xiaobao. It's time to wash your hands and finish eating. The woman shouted at Xiaobao outside the house.
"Okay. Mother. Xiaobao responded to her mother, left the rattan chair, and walked outside the house.
Go to the yard, get a scoop of water from the large water tank, wash your hands and walk to the kitchen, and use the coarse cloth at the kitchen door to dry the water stains on your hands. As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw my father sitting in the big seat. Facing Xiaobao, he had a smile on his face, and shouted to his father respectfully, "Dad!"
Dad smiled and responded, "Let's sit down and eat!"
The mother also sandwiched the dishes for Xiaobao on the side, and said with a smile, "Eat more, you're all skinny." ā
Dad poured himself a glass of wine, and his mother's gaze shot straight away.
Dad smiled dryly and raised the wine glass in his hand, "Just this glass, isn't it almost the New Year, happy." ā
The mother snorted and ate by herself. Seeing that his mother didn't say much, Dad secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Xiaobao was very puzzled, and thought in his heart: Why is the situation in our family different from others, little monkeys, their mothers don't dare to speak loudly in front of their fathers, or accuse them, and I have seen many times when their fathers are in a bad mood, they beat and scold their mothers. But my family is the opposite, my mother is angry and dares to scold my father, and my father only blindly pleases. It's rare to see my father in a bad mood, even if he is in a bad mood, he will only sit alone and bow his head and ponder. This is Xiaobao's first doubt about the family.
"Why is there no meat?" Dad took the chopsticks and sandwiched half a bowl, all of which were vegetables, and couldn't help but wonder.
Niang snorted coldly, "It's not that big fat mother, it's just that she was scared by the artillery battle, so she had to ignore people, and she came to the house for a long time to say, if I didn't give her tonight's meat, she wouldn't take it away." ā
Dad looked at Xiaobao and said in a deep voice, "Xiaobao?"
Xiaobao raised his head and was about to explain, but his mother was not happy, and pulled his father's ear, "What are you doing, what are you doing." ā
"Oh,. It hurts, it hurts. Little Bao's father was in pain and hurriedly begged for mercy.
The mother let go of her hand and said angrily, "This is not to blame Xiaobao at all, it is all that big fat girl." calculating, not ashamed. ā
"Yes, yes. Xiao Bao Dad replied repeatedly, Xiao Bao Niang let go of Xiao Bao Dad's ears, Xiao Bao Dad immediately lowered his head, picked up the food in the bowl, and did not dare to say more.
Xiao Bao Niang took out a small bowl with five or six pieces of meat in it and handed it to Xiao Bao.
"Eat them all, look at your skinny. Xiao Bao Niang looked at Xiao Bao lovingly, and Xiao Bao hurriedly agreed.
As soon as Xiaobao took a bite of meat, there was a sound of swallowing saliva beside him. Xiaobao raised his head and saw his father looking at the slices of meat in his hand, Xiaobao pushed the small bowl towards his father, and said, "Dad, you can eat it too." The words just fell.
Xiao Bao's father looked at Xiao Bao excitedly, "Okay." Good. My good son. Reach out your chopsticks and hold them towards the small bowl.
"Ahem, ahem!" Xiaobao's mother coughed lightly on the side. Xiao Bao's hand holding the chopsticks couldn't help trembling slightly, quickly withdrew it, and hurriedly said, "Dad, don't eat." You eat more. ā
Xiaobao looked at her mother's gaze at her father and didn't dare to make a sound. I grabbed a piece of meat and wanted to put it in my mother's bowl.
"Eat it yourself, don't want it. The woman picked up the bowl, and Xiaobao had to take back the chopsticks and put the meat in her bowl.
"I'm full!" Xiao finished the rice in the bowl, took the chopsticks and the bowl aside, and hurried out of the house.
"You haven't finished your meat yet!" shouted the little lady behind her.
"I can't eat it. Xiaobao quickened his pace and left.
"It really is!" complained in the room.
Dad looked at the meat in the bowl, a little moved, stretched out the chopsticks to clip it, pop!
"Look you're skinny, come. Dad picked up the small bowl and pulled all the meat into his mother's bowl, "Eat more, eat more." After speaking, he picked up the bowl and pretended to pick up the rice, not daring to look at his mother.
The mother picked up the meat and was about to enter it, when she suddenly saw a longing gaze on the side.
Xiao Baoniang shook her head helplessly, "Come, here you go." "Grab the meat and stretch it out to the little daddy's bowl.
Daddy Bao was so happy that he opened his mouth to bite the meat in the chopsticks like a child.
Xiao Baoniang hurriedly retracted her hand and said sharply, "What are you doing, don't be ashamed, what about the bowl?"
Xiao Bao Dad got up and walked to Xiao Bao Niang's bench, sat beside her, put his arm around Xiao Bao Niang and said, "It's all old husbands and wives, come and feed me." He looked at Xiao Bao Niang with his mouth open.
Xiao Bao Niang glanced at Xiao Bao Daddy, and put the meat slice into his mouth, "Okay, sit down, don't let anyone see it." Xiao Bao Niang urged him to leave his side.
"I'm still afraid that others will see this in my family?" Xiao Bao's father chewed the meat, his mouth was greasy, and he kissed Xiao Bao Niang.
"You're going to die, wait for the child to see. Xiao Baoniang wiped the oil stains off her face and scolded shyly.........
The night is long, fleeting. A rooster crowed, and the sky turned white.
Xiaobao slowly opened his eyes and looked at the sky outside the window, which was already bright.
When she got out of bed, Xiao Bao Niang had already put the basin full of warm water in Xiao Bao's house. Take a handkerchief and wipe your face and wash it up. Xiaobao walked out of the inner room with the basin and poured water into the vegetable patch that his mother had planted in the fence yard.
Xiaobao put the basin away, and heard a soft sound from behind the house.
Xiaobao followed the sound and walked to the back of the house. The stones are all over the ground, and the little father's body is like the wind, and his fingertips are surrounded by energy. Pointing to the distant stones, bang, the stones exploded like cannonballs, and scattered in all directions.
A finger of energy struck at the boulder in front of Xiao Bao, and boom! The boulder turned into gravel, but the energy did not dissipate.
Shooting directly towards Xiaobao, Xiaobao's father also discovered Xiaobao's current situation at this moment.
He roared angrily and threw his eyes red at Xiaobao. But the distance is a little far, and the strength is already close at hand.
Bang, a figure appeared in front of Xiao Bao, scattering the galloping energy.
"Mother. Xiaobao shouted softly, hugging the mother in front of him in fear.
Xiao Bao Niang gently touched Xiao Bao's head, pointed at her father with a shovel in her other hand, and shouted angrily: "Huang Zhongzheng, you are trying to kill my son! ā
Xiao Bao's father breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "I don't know this, and I got up late today before I thought about being here, and I won't be next time." Little Daddy rubbed his hands together.
"And next time?" Xiao Bao Niang said in a deep voice.
"No, no. Xiao Bao's father scratched his head with a dry smile, "I will go to the mountains to practice in the future." Guaranteed not to be at home. ā
"Hmph, let's go to dinner. Xiao Bao Niang pulled Xiao Bao and walked into the house, ignoring Xiao Bao Dad who stayed where he was.
This is the second big doubt of the Xiaobao family.
Why did my father and mother have such high martial arts skills, and they did not open a martial arts gym or hold an official position, but instead farmed in the fields.
I once told Da Zhuang and my mother that my father could blast away the boulder with his strength, but they all expressed their disbelief, because those who can do this with their strength must at least have the strength of a martial artist, and in this remote township, a martial artist is already a great pure being.
And with this strength, who would believe that he is still farming!
Like her mother, her father opened a martial arts hall in the township. is still a great good man in ten miles and eight towns.
Xiao Bao Niang put a bowl of porridge and put it in front of Xiao Bao, "Hungry, drink porridge quickly." He lovingly touched my head.
Xiaobao blew away the heat of the porridge noodles, sandwiched the pickles, and drank the porridge in small sips.
Xiao Bao's father looked at Xiao Bao Niang, Xiao Bao Niang blew the porridge in the bowl, and took a sip of herself, "I want to drink my own sheng!"
After the little Bao father got the order, he smiled happily and took the bowl to serve the porridge.
"Mother, I want to learn martial arts from my father. Xiaobao watched her mother speak cautiously.
As soon as the words fell, the little father, who was gulping down the porridge, coughed violently, obviously frightened by my words. After stopping the cough, the little dad said with a flushed face, "You really want to learn, Dad will definitely teach you to be the first ...... in the world"
Just as Xiaobao's father was slowly talking, Xiaobao found that his mother's face was getting more and more gloomy. The little lady put the chopsticks on the table and made a sound, and the little father also realized that something was wrong at the moment, and quickly stopped talking. "Xiaobao. Isn't it good to read, isn't the imperial court also vigorously promoting literature now? ā
My mother said to me gently, "You just study hard and don't think about unnecessary things." "My mother touched my head.
Mother loves Xiaobao the most, everything goes smoothly, should be Xiaobao, only this martial arts practice mother is unwilling, Xiaobao does not dare to disobey the mother. "Good. A whispered reply.
"Mother, I'm going out, and I won't come back for dinner at noon. Xiaobao put down the dishes and chopsticks and whispered.
Xiao Bao Niang looked at Xiao Bao suspiciously, "Where are you going, who are you going to?"
"With my mother, I'll go find Da Zhuang. You should eat game at noon..."Xiao Bao has not finished speaking.
Xiao Bao Niang replied repeatedly, "Go, go." Have fun and come back early in the afternoon. ā
As long as my mother heard that I was going out with my mother, she was very relieved.
There is even a little, I wish Xiaobao and Mi Niang were together every day.
"Mother, then I'm going out" Xiaobao ran out after speaking, and walked towards Da Zhuang's house.
At this time, in the house, "Huang Zhongzheng, if you dare to practice your broken kung fu at home in the future, I will not finish with you." ā
Xiaobao just went out, Xiaobao's mother angrily lost her temper at Xiaobao's father, and Xiaobao's father was aggrieved and flattered, "Don't dare, don't dare anymore, no matter how tired you will be at night in the future, you will go to the mountains to practice." ā
After a moment of silence, Xiao Bao's father couldn't help but say loudly, "Actually, it's okay to let Xiaobao practice martial arts, now we can still protect him, you said that in case of the future, we will be two..."
"Hmph, you don't have to worry about it, it's a big deal that I'll find a daughter-in-law for Xiaobao who can protect him. Xiao Bao Niang snorted coldly, put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and no longer bothered Xiao Bao's father.
"Good. Good. It's all up to you. Little Bao Dad flattered.
"Go, go, go. Don't get in the way. Xiao Bao Niang urged Xiao Bao Dad out of the kitchen.
