Ignoring the surprise and inquisitive look in the eyes of his uncle Zhou Ye, Zhou Angwan refused the other party's stay, and did not go to the backyard to say goodbye to his uncle, and went straight out.

However, by this time, the little bit of "yang energy" that I had absorbed this morning seemed to have been exhausted.

Even the exhaustion of not sleeping all night last night had a surging meaning.

Zhou Ang silently calculated the distance needed to go around Sogo Fang, looked up at the sun, and finally hurried over there - he almost intuitively thought that the fox demon should still be in Lingzhou City, so he felt that the thorn was in his back, and he wished to find the person who could save him a moment earlier.

And on the way here, he had already thought about it, and if he really couldn't find that person, he would have to go to several famous local Buddhist temples and Taoist temples.

Generally speaking, people who recite Buddhism and practice the Tao will be better at things like strange powers.

Stubbornly came to Sogo Fang, he collected his mind, paid attention to the pedestrians on both sides of the road, and deliberately ran to the door of the shops that specialized in the four treasures of the study room for a long time, and even entered a few representative shops to describe and inquire, but unfortunately he found nothing.

Standing on the street that probably he met the middle-aged man that day, Zhou Ang thought about it carefully, and still only remembered that the man was tall, seemed to be wearing a moon-white robe, had a beard, and had a somewhat handsome and majestic face, but no matter how many things he had, he really couldn't recall it - after all, that day was really just a hurry.

But Zhou Ang did not lose heart, and spent another half an hour in Sogo Fang to take a turn and look at the sun, it was still early at noon, and he decided to go around Guangshoufang, where there were many inns and inns in the south - there were not only many inns and warehouses, but also the most restaurants and tea shops because of the proximity to the wharf.

However, until about two or three o'clock in the afternoon, he was so tired that he barely had any strength left, and he almost inquired about the restaurants, tea shops, and inns on the side of Guangshoufang, but he still found nothing.

The information on finding people is too simple and too vague.

What kind of tall man is tall? Isn't there a handful of people in moon-white robes on the street?

In the end, he was really helpless, so Zhou Ang had to drag his extremely tired body and rush home.

When he pushed the door and entered, there was still no one in the yard, but the two clotheslines that were pulled up were almost full of clothes, and the two "small canals" in the yard became more and more conspicuous.

Even some of the clothes looked dry.

But the mother and the little sister haven't finished washing yet.

Pushing open the door and sitting down for a while, he got up and ran to the kitchen to get a scoop, added two scoops of water to the pot, and looked at the little firewood left in the kitchen, which was somewhat big.

People often say that there are seven things to open the door, which are firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and the first place is firewood.

But he still didn't want to drink cold water when he was thirsty like he used to.

So he learned to make a fire and boil water.

When the water boiled and cooled again, he barely poured a full water first, and then he felt more energetic, but at this time, the hunger came up again, and he felt more uncomfortable than the thirst just now.

Zhou Ang had never been in the kitchen in the past, but now he decided to cook for himself.

When my mother came back from washing her clothes for a day, she must have been tired enough, so she would cook the food now, and when she came back, she would be able to have a bite of ready-made food to eat, which would be somewhat helpful.

Anyway, it's easy to cook at home now...... It's so good to do!

Cook beans in the pot, put a large pottery bowl on the steaming drawer, cut the cleaned vegetables and put them in, add a little lard, only a little more, add a little salt, you have to add less, not more, and then put the multigrain cakes for the family's dinner on the steaming drawer, and just burn the fire.

The beans are boiled and the rice is ready.

Even if you want to cook something else, you don't have the ingredients at all, and you don't have the money to buy other ingredients.

So, just do it, the yard grows green sunflower and lettuce, which are all green vegetables that the people of Lingzhou eat at home. Zhou Ang went to pluck a large handful of green sunflowers, picked them and washed them, and soon packed everything he needed into the pot.

The bottom of the pot was burning on his side, and he saw that the fire was almost ready to stop, when he heard the sound of his mother and sister opening the door and talking.

"Is Ang'er back?"

Zhou Ang walked out, "Mother, it's me." ”

Zhou Caishi breathed a sigh of relief, "I said how to look at it from a distance, it was the chimney of our house that smoked, and we thought it was the water running out ......of the house!

She was stunned when she spoke, but the little girl Zhou Zihe was already holding a big basin in her arms and laughing.

Zhou Ang has never burned a pot in his life, so he can't help but be a little discouraged, but he has never appeared in a comical appearance in him, a scholar.

Zhou Ang showed a smile at his little sister and said with a smile: "Mother, I have finished the meal." ”

At this time, the mother and daughter were all surprised.

With a strange face, he put down the basin in his hand and went into the kitchen to take a look, and Zhou Caishi was a little distressed - there was a lot less firewood! At least enough for her to burn a meal and a half!

And that's not something to be happy about.

She turned around and looked at the smiling look on her little daughter's face, but she made a straight face and said, "Ang'er, you want to do something to help your mother, you know this thought, but you still don't want to go into the kitchen in the future." ”

Zhou Ang was a little stunned.

Zhou Caishi explained: "You are a scholar, you should save a little more dignity! Don't you hear that the gentleman cooks far away? Although my mother does not read and cannot read, she also heard your father explain this sentence that day, he said, the gentleman is far away from cooking, not only because the kitchen is a filthy place, it is very dirty, and it is not just because the kitchen is a place of killing, which hinders the benevolence of the gentleman, but more importantly, a person who reads books must stay away from these things in order to calm his mind. You need to worry about everything, where else do you have the heart to memorize?"

Zhou Ang didn't expect that he cooked a meal and was actually taught a lesson in turn.

Seeing that his mother was serious, even the little sister listened carefully with a stiff face, he hesitated, but still smiled and said, "I know my mother." "—why do you have to screw it?

Zhou Caishi smiled and nodded, with a kind smile on his face, and said, "But today, it's not bad to eat a meal cooked by my Ang'er." ”

The little sister suddenly laughed out loud again, "Brother, you have ash on your nose!"

A family of three was standing at the door of the kitchen laughing, and they hadn't even had time to dry the last batch of clothes, when they suddenly heard someone shouting outside the door: "Is Mrs. Sister-in-law at home?"

This voice was familiar as soon as she heard it, and the little girl Zhou Zihe hurriedly ran over to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, sure enough, Lu Chunsheng's father and son came in front and back, and his son Lu Jin was still carrying a hanging pig into the water - the first impression of these two people was very impressive, and there was only one keyword: strong!

Zhou Ang himself is relatively tall, in terms of the measurement unit of this world, he is nearly eight feet tall, and he is only eighteen years old, if he can eat something nutritious, it is estimated that he can grow a little longer.

His uncle Zhou Ye is seven feet five inches, which is a little taller than normal.

But Lu Chunsheng's size, to say the least, must be more than nine feet long, and he has big shoulders, round waist and black skin, which is typical of people who are afraid to provoke that. His son Lu Jin was even half a head taller than him.

Entering the gate of the Zhou family, it was okay to be a father, but he just subconsciously bent down to enter, Lu Jin really had to bend down, otherwise he would hit his head - Zhou Ang didn't know that he was not ten feet long!

Weights and measures, if you don't compare them directly, it's not easy to distinguish the detailed differences, if the so-called one zhang sixteen feet in this world is also three meters, then Lu Jin's height is about one meter nine.

But he looked a little taller than 1.9 meters.

The key is that according to memory, this kid is only seventeen years old this year, one year younger than Zhou Ang!

Lu Chunsheng's ancestors were engaged in killing pigs and cattle, and later Zhou Ang's father entered the yamen, and soon got him in and became a servant, which was six or seven years, which was a big follower.

With Zhou Ang's father to protect him, he married a wife and had children in those years, and his small life was moisturized, and even his daughter-in-law was picked to marry a white woman, and his son was born with a lot of white - the name Lu Chunsheng is said to have been changed by Zhou Ang's father, and the name Lu Jin was also given by him.

It's a pity that less than two years after Zhou Ang's father died, Lu Chunsheng committed an accident, and all the family assets were spit out, so he took advantage of Zhou Ang's father's little face, barely got rid of the crime, and had to return to his old business, and went to Baoguo Temple to help the monks kill pigs - others are too honest and scheming, where are the opponents of those people in the yamen!

Entering the door at this time, the father and son of the Lu family both hung their hands, with some indescribable courtesy, Lu Chunsheng showed a trademark honest smile on his face, first saluted Zhou Cai's family, and then gave a salute to Zhou Ang and Zhou Zihe, and then said: "Sister-in-law, I heard that the young master has not been a good person recently, so today I deliberately picked the best water and used it to make up for the young master's body." ”

As he spoke, he also looked up at Zhou Ang again. Seeing his gray face, he seemed to want to ask, but he didn't open his mouth in the end.

After his words were finished, Lu Jin had already hurriedly taken two steps forward, handed over a hanging into the water, and at the same time said angrily: "Hello uncle! Hello young master! Hello young lady!"

Zhou Caishi sighed, didn't pick up things, and just asked, "How much did it cost?"

Lu Chunsheng smiled innocently, "It's not worth much! We are killing pigs there, we have some face, and it is much cheaper than buying it outside! Don't look at this thing, but the oil and water are big, and it is the most suitable for the young master to replenish his body." ”

While speaking, he glanced up at Zhou Ang again, and saw that although he was gray-headed, his face was flushed, and his spirit was quite vigorous, so he looked a little very happy, smiled innocently, and nodded at Zhou Ang.

At this time, Zhou Caishi sighed again, and finally reached out to take the thing, and said, "I'm afraid that your father and son's hard-earned money for a day or two is gone." Alas...... He's fine, you've seen it, he's fine, don't spend all this unjust money in the future, can you write it down?"

"Write it down! Write it down!"

Lu Chunsheng still smiled, and then said, "Since the young master is already very good, it is the best...... In this way, I will not delay my sister-in-law's work. ”

So he didn't stop for a moment, gave a salute, turned around and took his son away.

The two of them didn't stay in the courtyard for more than two minutes.

Zhou Caishi stood in the courtyard and was silent for a while, then sighed again, turned to Zhou Ang and said: "Ang'er, if you barely make a living in the future, it will be fine, if you have your father, you can do three points, but if you make a face, you must remember to pull this father and son, and it is also the end of the friendship between your father and Lu Chunsheng." ”

Zhou Ang was also silent for a moment when he heard this, and then said slowly: "No!
