Chapter 5: Great people must be great
"Then your master and Aunt Yu haven't gotten married yet?" Bai Xue asked with a deep sigh after listening to Wu Shuang's story.
"Nope. Wu Shuang shook his head solemnly and said.
"Ah! what great old men. Bai Xue said, "Time is like flowing water, youth will no longer come, a person who can be willing to sacrifice his youth for other people's affairs, how many people can there be in this world! ”
"Yes!" Wu Shuangye sighed, "in my mind, they are also my father and mother. ”
"Did you just say that your wife is also the daughter of the fisherman Li Dajiang?" Bai Xue asked again.
Wu Shuang nodded, his expression full of nostalgia for the past.
"Obviously, she must have given you great encouragement and support on your arduous path to success?"
"She has a very gentle, very kind, very compassionate heart," Wu Shuang said leisurely, "She has known how to sacrifice herself since she was a child!"
He suddenly pursed his lips vigorously, and his face was full of smiles reminiscing about the good old days, and said: "I began to practice swords with my master when I was eight years old, and my great hatred has prompted me to treat everything very hard since I was a child; ”
"This is specially prepared for you by Aunt Yu!" Bai Xue asked.
"Yes. Wu Shuang nodded and said, "When we came to Lujiang, we lived and worked together with Uncle Li's family to form a big family. Sometimes, it's an egg, sometimes it's half a bowl of pork, and sometimes it's some rare game. Because, all of them are hares or turtledoves that Master and Uncle Li caught in the mountains. However, after I had eaten the previous meal, there would be another meal, and at first I was very incomprehensible, so I paid attention to the scene of everyone in the family as they ate. At this time, I found out that my sister Li Shishi's good things at the bottom of the bowl never moved the chopsticks, she always finished the white rice on the surface like an adult, and then secretly put the remaining half of the bowl of good things in her bowl into the cupboard, and when it was time for the next meal, she said to Yu's mother: This is the leftover from Brother Wushuang's meal in the morning, you can heat him up again! ”
"Sister Li is so young and so director!" Bai Xue said with a look of admiration.
"Yes, she has been so caring and considerate of others since she was a child," Wu Shuang said, "A few days later, once Uncle Li picked up some wild duck eggs by the lake, and at lunch that day, we quietly put a few duck eggs in our bowl, so I paid special attention to her; when I saw that she still did not touch the duck eggs in the bowl, and only ate white rice, I exposed her." I said sister, it's yours, you should eat it. So, she smiled and said to me, "Brother, I don't like to eat these things, you can help me eat them!" At this time, the whole family also stopped chopsticks, and they looked at us two children talking solemnly. I remember that I didn't agree to her request at that time, and told everyone what she tried to leave for me to eat. At this time, she cried, she said in tears, my brother's family is so poor, there is nothing good to supplement your nutrition, and you have to work so hard every day to practice the sword, my mother said, you are so fortunate that your body will collapse without nutrition...... Since then, she has directly told Yu's mother that when there are any good things in the future, she will leave all the good things for her brother to eat!"
Bai Xue silently shed tears as she listened, she said.
"Sister Li is really a very gentle and virtuous woman, she has a kind and loving heart since she was a child!"
And, over the years, our husband and wife have always been less together and more separated, but she has always been strong to take care of the life of the family and not let the **** have a little heart. ”
At this moment, Mao Xiaoer knocked on the door again.
He came in and said, "Yesterday there was a middle-aged man from Taiyuan, who claimed to be surnamed Hua, and he asked for twenty rooms in our inn, and also ordered the most expensive room. Before leaving, he paid 1,000 taels of silver tickets in advance, and told me: As long as Luoyan City has what our inn can do, their guests live, eat, drink, and play, everything must meet their needs unconditionally, and on the day of leaving, he promises to pay a lot of room fees!"
"Then did they say how long they were going to stay?" asked Bai Xue.
"He said that after watching Lord Wu's duel, they will leave!"
"Oh, then do as he says. Bai Xue said, "We are businessmen, as long as it is not a matter of injureness, we should do our best to meet the requirements of the guests." ”
"Understood. ”
"In this way, the matter of my duel this time has attracted a lot of people's attention!" Wu Shuang said suddenly.
"Isn't it!" Mao Xiaoer said, "In the past few days, the number of people who have come to Luoyan City to watch the duel has increased day by day, and the inns and hotels of all sizes in the city are also about to be full!"
"Very good!" Wu Shuang muttered, "It is better to have more people...... and he did not finish his sentence.
Wu Shuang's arrival made Bai Xue regain hope for life, and after she drank the medicine, she felt a little sleepy after talking to Wu Shuang. So, Wu Shuang no longer disturbed her to rest, he repeatedly told her to face life strongly, bravely deal with hardships, and never give up hope at any time.
After that, he helped her close the door and left the Fengming Inn.
At this time, the people on the street were bustling, and at the moment when he raised his foot and was about to step down the stone steps of the Fengming Inn, suddenly, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a pair of sharp eyes staring at him under the big locust tree across the street.
So he looked back behind him and around him, and saw no one responding to the hostile gaze of the man under the tree in front of him, and he concluded that the man must have been coming at him.
He looked around cautiously again, and saw that there were all busy passers-by, and no other suspicious people, so he concluded that the man under the tree in front of him with a brown sheath sword in his bosom must have no helper nearby. It also reassured him a little.
This young man with a long sword in his arms and standing proudly under the tree was about twenty years old. He wears a clean white dress and white socks, and holds a fresh white orchid in his left hand in front of his chest.
At this time, Wu Shuang resolutely walked down the stone steps, as if he had not seen anything, still walking towards the south gate of Songshan Manor, and when he walked past the young man in white under the tree, the other party suddenly asked him.
"You are Wu Shuang?"
"Yes. Wu Shuang stopped when answering, and raised his head calmly, he calmly looked into the distance.
"Is that the Wu Shuang who robbed Wang Million Songshan Manor overnight?" the other party asked again, his tone as cold as frost.
"You're mistaken," Wu Shuang said, still looking ahead, his tone was equally cold, "Songshan Manor was originally our family, and I just wanted my own things back from my uncle's hands!"
"Your uncle!" the other asked hesitantly, "who...... Who's your uncle?"
"Of course it's Wang Million!"
