Chapter 55: Little Homecoming (Part 1)

Chapter 55: Little Return Home (Part 1)

The four young men sat by the window, all of whom looked gloomy and incompatible with the atmosphere in the restaurant.

"Is this kid Chen Jing's best friend?" asked a young man with a handsome appearance but a little longer face.

"It must be." A young man with a numb face nodded and smiled, "I always see them going out and going out."

"Nanqiu, still a little white-faced." Another fat man curled his lips, picked up a piece of fat meat dripping from juice, and chewed it up. He said vaguely: "I hate you who are more handsome than brother..."

Before he finished speaking, the last young man with sharp mouth and monkey cheeks slapped him on the back of his head and whispered: "Nonsense, how can that kid compare to his brother?"

The fat man knew that he had made a mistake and secretly glanced at the young man with a long face. Seeing that his face had been stretched longer, he quickly shrank his neck and smiled: "At first glance, it looks handsome, but in fact, the more you look at it, the more you become, how can you compete with your brother..."

The young man with a long face was gloomy and squinted his eyes, "I heard that he was going to join the clan school too, so that boy Shen Jing finally found a helper."

"What are you afraid of?" Map-faced smiled and said, "The fourth brother is only one helper, but you have three of us."

"That's right, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang." The sharp-mouthed one smiled, "Can that kid be more powerful than Zhuge Liang?"

The expression of the young man with a long face was relieved, and he nodded and said, "Give an idea and give that kid a warning, so that he knows the rules, and don't get too close to the fourth brother!" The few people began to discuss with whispers.

The silence left behind a longan, a few red dates, a pair of yams, and a handful of leeks. It was considered that it won the hearts of the neighbors and then took off.

Holding these things with light gifts and heavy feelings, he returned to the Shen family compound, preparing to say hello to his father and then visit his eldest son.

Unexpectedly, Wentao's courtyard was full of people. When he saw him coming in, he huh and surrounded him with a whistle and smiled, "Our talented man is back."

He said silently: "Who are you? How come I belong to your family?" At this time, the seventh girl squeezed to him and smiled with honor. This one was the seventh aunt, the eighth aunt, the third uncle and the second uncle. Anyway, they were all his relatives, and they were the kind that could be killed by killing the whole family.

Listening to the buzzing sound in his ears, he suddenly had two big heads in his head in silence, and he whispered to the seventh girl to help him block it, and he went upstairs openly in the name of "Please My Father".

As a result, there were also guests upstairs - Mr. Shen, who actually visited the small attic of the father and son, sat by the bed and talked with Chen He with a happy face.

He was silent and did not dare to neglect. He first saluted Mr. Shen, then greeted his father, and then stood aside in a regular manner and listened to the two elders.

Mr. Shen looked at him with a smile, and laughed at Chen He and said, "Qingzhi, you have given birth to a good son."

Chen He also looked at Chen Si. The pride on his face was uncontrollable, but he still said insincerely: "The child is just a mess, the master praised him." As he said that, he asked Chen Si in a deep voice: "What is in your arms?"

Chen Si knew that the old man was pretending to be authoritative, and he smiled in his heart, but said obediently: "When I say to my father, this is what the neighbors gave me when the child came back."

"Hmm?" Chen He buffeted his beard and said, "You still dare to take other people's things? How did I teach you?"

Chen Si quickly explained with a panic look on his face: "Don't calm down. As soon as he saw the child come back, the neighbors gave me things. The child refused, so he had to accept a little, which meant it." As he raised the thing in his hand and said: "You see, it's not enough to make a meal. Obviously, the child is just accepting his feelings, not counting as taking things... right?"

"Hmph, you are so clever!" Chen He let him go, and then said to Mr. Shen with a sigh, "Look at this child, he has ten words waiting there. He is really naughty and tricky. Fortunately... his nature is not bad."

Mr. Shen smiled and said, "Brother Qingzhi, it's not that I said you, you are blessed and unaware of it. Chaosheng will have great prospects in the future, so just wait and enjoy your happiness."

Chen He still shook his head and said, "It's not a skill to know some bad ideas. Only by reading good books will you have a promising future."

Mr. Shen suddenly laughed and said, "It turns out that I'm worried about this," and turned to Chen and said, "Chaosheng, last time he asked you to go to the clan school, but then the competition happened. I was afraid that I would distract you, so I never asked Chen Jing to ask you to go to school. Now that I understand, do you think you will take a break for two days or go to report tomorrow?"

He looked at the old man silently and smiled bitterly: "It's better to go tomorrow."

"It's great to know how to be motivated." Mr. Shen patted Chen Jing's arm and said, "Our clan school will not provide children with training and are responsible for lunch. Those with excellent grades will also receive subsidies. And now Chunfu is teaching, what else do you have to worry about?"

"Is it Mr. Qingxia?" Chen He said in surprise.

"Who else can there be?" Mr. Shen smiled and said, "Chunfu will teach Chaosheng well, so don't worry."

"Mr. I'm so proud." Chen He recovered from his dullness and said with a serious face: "You must cherish the opportunity to learn from Mr. Qingxia. Learn to learn well and be a good person!" This was the second time in just a few hours. Someone praised Mr. Qingxia so much, which shocked Chen Mo. He thought to himself: 'It seems that the black-faced second master does have two tricks.'

Mr. Shen asked their father and son to move them from the attic and said with a smile: "I have already cleaned up a small courtyard for you father and son, right next to my residence. We can talk even if we have time."

Chen He was at a loss in the face of the sudden courtesy, and he didn't know how to refuse. Chen Si put a pair of yam sticks behind his head, like a soap bar and soft scarf behind the official hat. Chen He immediately understood: "The master shouldn't have refused, but the student has already responded to the county government office work. When he is more flexible, he will go to work as a job."

The "Da Ming Law" has a clear text: 'Anyone who has a corps official who does not live in the official room of the public hall, but a civic house living in the streets has eighty sticks.' Mr. Shen has also been an official, so he naturally knew this article and had to give up and say, "Since that's the case, I don't want to force myself to stay." He also asked Chen Hehao to have a recuperation, so he stood up and said to Chen: "I originally wanted to celebrate you, but later I remembered that you had to give up during your mourning period. I really felt sorry for you."

Chen Si smiled gently and said, "My Si is undefeated this time, all depends on the help of the master. I have not thanked you yet. If you say 'sorry', I will be ashamed."

"It seems that I'm pretentious." Mr. Shen laughed and said, "I have already ordered the kitchen to give you a good table for your father and son... It's not as loud as outsiders, and eating and drinking more happily. I know that." Then he stood up and said goodbye.
