Chen Xiuyuan had just come out of the flower hall, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly turned around and shook his head slightly at Lu Man, signaling that she should not talk to her mother about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, Lu Man actually understood it in an instant, with a look of approval and approval, smiled at him, and nodded lightly. Mrs. Chen saw in her eyes that the two of them were like a warm couple, mixing oil in honey, thinking that the two of them were reluctant to part for a moment, so she pretended not to see them at the moment, but she couldn't stop smiling.

Chen Xiu saw that Lu Man understood, so he put his mind at ease, turned around and walked through the courtyard, came to the back hall, and saw his father sitting alone on a stone drum chair in the back garden, lighting a small candle on the stone table next to him, holding a cup in his left hand and a book in his right hand.

Chen Xiuyuan saw that his temples were already slightly white, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. Thinking of his father's praise for himself in the past, but in fact, in his heart, his love for himself is by no means inferior to his mother, the strict fathers in the world are average, compared to the mother's deep love for licking calves, but more subtle, if you can feel the love at the moment, it is not father's love.

When Chen's father saw him coming, his face was very happy, and he casually put the scroll on the stone table, and ordered him to play a set of Shaolin boxing, and Chen Xiuyuan opened a frame in the back garden and played a set of Shaolin Luohan boxing. This Shaolin Luohan boxing is mainly based on technical attacks, with rigorous structure, regular power frame, simple and generous, and coherent action. Pay attention to the upper, middle and lower, inside and outside the yin and yang, the upper and lower, the lower down, the right to the left, the sound of the east and the west, the virtual and the real are uncertain, fast and changeable. When it came to Xingfa, Chen Xiuyuan was angry and blew his teeth, his voice was like thunder, he shook his body and shoulders, twisted his waist and adjusted his hips, shook his strength, cheered with his voice, and urged his strength with his breath.

Although Chen's father does not know martial arts, he also knows that he has a tiger and tiger style of boxing, and he has the style of a master craftsman, and he is happy in his heart, but he still does not applaud or praise on his face, but only said lightly: "Good boxing skills!" That is to praise Shaolin boxing instead of praising his beloved son, and seeing that he is wearing a long sword, he asked him to dance a set of swordsmanship.

Chen Xiuyuan first saluted his father, confessed his guilt, and then turned around and walked to the corner of the garden, far away from Chen's father, so that he dared to slowly pull out the Su Ni sword in front of his father. Father Chen didn't know that this sword was the treasure of Emei Town, and he didn't know what the advantages of this sword were, just that it was like an ordinary knife. When Chen Xiuyuan danced the Su Ni Sword, although he was a few feet away, he still felt shuddered, and then he only felt a burst of cold air emanating from the blade of the sword, and he couldn't help but give Ling Ling a cold shiver, just looking at his back cold, secretly frightened.

Chen Xiuyuan's set of Dharma swordsmanship had not yet been completed, and suddenly saw that his father's expression was different, so he hurriedly forcibly withdrew his sword, knelt down towards his father, and said in a trembling voice: "The child is unfilial and rude, which makes my father frightened." As he spoke, he hurriedly returned the Suni sword to the box.

Father Chen smiled, stretched out his right hand to pull Chen Xiuyuan up, and said, "It's for my father to order you to dance the sword, what are you guilty of, get up." Chen Xiuyuan was sincerely frightened, and confessed again, so he got up.

After Chen's father asked him to sit down with him again, Chen Xiuyuan dared to sit on a stone drum and said, "Dad, why don't you see your sister and brother-in-law?" Chen's father said: "They have another business, and they have rushed back to Fuzhou Mansion a few days ago......" and said: "Let's not talk about them first, you have gone down the mountain, two major events in life, starting a family and starting a business, and it is your mother and their daughters to say that the matter of starting a family is your mother and their daughters, I don't care, I only say one thing, I don't know what you plan to do in the future, whether you want to gain fame or return home to inherit the ancestral business?"

Chen Xiuyuan said: "The child is not filial piety, failed to serve in front of his parents' knees, this time he went down the mountain to act on the orders of the master, and when he completed the things assigned by the master, the child wants to serve under the account of General Yu Dayou and drive out the Japanese ......" and said: "You talk to your mother, can the matter of the matchmaker be slowed down a little, and the child has determined that the Japanese will not be destroyed, and he will not become a family." ”

Father Chen heard him say this, groaned for a while, and said: "Well, you don't worry about the ancestral business, it's nothing, but it can be regarded as promising, and you can rely on your father." You said that you want to throw yourself into General Yu's account to sweep up the Japanese pirates, which is also very good, and I also approve of it. But this has nothing to do with whether you are married or not, our Chen family Ding Buwang, three generations of single ......" Although Chen's father has said that he will not care about his marriage, he is still very anxious and worried in his heart, how can he really not ask.

Chen Xiuyuan knew that what his father said was also the truth, and he couldn't answer for a while, so he hurriedly turned the conversation around and talked about the incident that he had met with General Yu a few days ago, and as for the affairs involving the rivers and lakes, he hid it and didn't say anything. Chen's father has also heard of Yu Dayou's name for a long time, and he is also a fellow villager in Quanzhou with Yu Dayou, and he has a hometown feeling, so he can't help but be overjoyed, and asked about General Yu's recent situation, and he stopped talking about the matchmaker for a while.

The father and son talked for a while, and Chen's father asked about Lu Man's origin, and Chen Xiuyuan said: "Man...... Miss Lu, although she is a child of the rivers and lakes, she can be regarded as a famous lady...... "Chen's father listened to his words, and knew that he admired Lu Man a lot, and he was secretly worried that the two of them might have made a private decision for life, but after all, he was separated from this beloved son when he urinated, and the father and son had more or less some birth, and at this time he secretly regretted that he would send him to Shaolin Temple when his beloved son was young.

After a while, Chen's father said: "That Miss Lu talks well, gentle and polite, but she is like a lady who is beautiful and famous, and her father also believes that she is a good girl, but she is just a ......" It's just that at this time, it is a little difficult to phrase, he thinks that I don't know what to do in the rivers and lakes, but in the middle of the night, lonely men and widows walk together, completely ignoring the defense of men and women, and it is not "courtesy".

At this time, Chen Xiuyuan suddenly knelt on the ground again, and said: "Children are extremely unfilial...... Chen's father was shocked when he heard this, and his face couldn't help but change greatly, and he secretly wondered in his heart: Could it be that the two of them have really done something...... But Chen Xiuyuan choked up and continued: "The child still has something to do, and he will leave home again tomorrow morning...... Just Mother She...... The child's heart is really unbearable...... I don't know how to talk to her old man...... "Chen Xiuyuan is already in tears at this time, he has not been home for ten years, as soon as he enters the house tonight, he feels that the family is warm and harmonious, and the admiration that has been suppressed in his heart for ten years is suddenly out of control, although this emotion is different from his admiration for Lu Man, but it is also that he does not want to be separated from his parents for a moment, especially his mother is extremely unbearable.

At this time, Chen's father heard him say this, his face was calm, and he knew that he was out of a sincere love for his parents, his heart was hot, his eyes were already red, he caressed the top of his head, and said gently: "Idiot, for my father, I hope that you can become a thousand-mile horse of my family, how can I tie you under the trough, the man's ambition is in all directions, and I will take care of the affairs of the family, as for your mother, I will comfort her with kind words, you don't have to worry." ”

At that moment, Chen Xiuyuan kowtowed to Chen's father three more times, and Chen's father accepted it and let him kowtow, so he leaned over and pulled him up. The father and son were originally close relatives, and after some deep talk, the relationship was enhanced a lot.
