Chapter 286 [The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked]

Chapter 280 [The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked]

A bucket was lifted from the well.

A half-year-old boy standing by the well, bare upper body, revealing a sturdy body.Carrying a full bucket of water with one hand, he walked to the kitchen in the yard and poured the water into the water tank.

Then the boy ran back to the well with the bucket and picked up the water again.

After going back and forth several times, the water tank by the kitchen was finally full.

The young man wiped the sweat on his forehead and exhaled.

Looking at the sun intently, he ran to the other side of the kitchen, grabbed the axe on the ground, weighed it a few times in his hand, and started chopping wood.

Suddenly, a berry was thrown over, impartially, and hit the boy's head.

The young man raised his eyebrows, ignoring him.

When another berry flew again, a cold light flashed in the air!
An axe shadow accurately divided the berries flying in the air into two!
"Er Ya, if you have nothing to do, go and kill the chicken for me. Don't disturb my work."

The young man muttered angrily, lowered the axe in his hand, and looked up.

On a sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard, Situ Beixuan was sitting on the top of the tree, holding a thread-bound book in his hand, pretending to shake his head, but holding a few berries in his other hand.

"I've told you countless times, call me Situ Beixuan!" Erya put down the book and said dissatisfiedly, "Have you ever seen me call you Tie Zhu?"

"It's just the name, you can call it whatever you want. Besides, the name Tie Zhu was named by the master, so I think it's quite pleasant."

"What's wrong with the name Nangong Yin?" Erya exclaimed dissatisfiedly, "I have read a lot of books to give you such a nice name!"

"Because my surname is not Nangong." The boy shook his head.

"My surname is not Situ either." Erya pouted: "My parents have never raised us, so why do we have to use our original surname. What's wrong with giving ourselves a nice and pleasant one."

"As long as you like it, I think the name Tie Zhu is very good." The young man looked at Erya and frowned, "Aren't you really going to kill the chicken for me?"

"Master said, I practice onmyoji, to avoid cause and effect, and do as little as possible to kill."

"...It's cooked, and I haven't seen you eat less."

"Nangong Yin, you entered the Dao with martial arts, and practicing killing is also a practice, so you should kill the chicken yourself."

"Then help me catch it."

"It's said that you can't touch the cause and effect! Even if I don't kill the chicken, but I catch it for you, it's also connected to the cause and effect."

"You can find so many reasons for being lazy. No wonder you like reading so much. Is it all from the books?"

The two children were bickering, but the young man had already chopped up dozens of pieces of firewood.

Then he chopped the axe on the wooden stake and turned around and ran into the kitchen.

But from the steamer on the stove, he took out a yellow-orange corn, went to the yard, glanced at Erya sitting on the tree, thought about it, and broke it in half, half of which was thrown over.

Erya took it and took a bite with a smile on her face: "It's still my brother who treats me well."

"Humph."

The young man ate the corn in three or two strokes, but turned around and threw half of the corn cobs in his hand into the hearth and burned it.

He also took a handful of water in the water tank and wiped his mouth.

Turning her head, she saw Erya sitting on the treetop, nibbling delicately.

After a while, Wu Taotao's annoyed shout came from the yard.

"Where's my steamed corn?? I'm going to use it to make medicine!! Where did it go?!"

The young man had a simple and honest blank expression, his hands spread out, but his eyes looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

Wu Taotao saw Erya sitting on the osmanthus tree, with her hands behind her back, but there was still a kernel of corn at the corner of her mouth...

Wu Taotao yelled, took off his slippers and ran over, grabbed the apprentice's feet and dragged her down from the tree, talking about the soles of his shoes and greeting her ass.

Hearing the screams of the younger sister and the scolding of the master, the young man sighed, turned around, and continued to chop wood.

Hey……

The days in this door are actually quite nourishing.

·
Down the cross slope.

A tattered tractor drove down the hill before a teenager jumped out of the car.

He took out his wallet, counted out two banknotes, and handed them to the old farmer who drove the tractor. He took out a cigarette case and smoked a red jinling and handed it to the other party.

With a smile, the old farmer clipped his ear, waved his hand, and drove away.

Chen Nuo raised his head and looked at the small dirt slope.

The steps of the bluestone slabs are laid on top of each other.

Behind a sparse short tree, a courtyard wall is exposed, with a red base and a white wall.

The courtyard gate is an eaves, the double door panels are open, and blue tiles are stacked on the top.

Walking up the hillside step by step along the steps, Chen Nuo looked relaxed and looked up at the plaque on the gate.

"Qingyun... Hey, I'm not afraid that people will accuse you of piracy."

When I looked inside, I saw the little Erya I had seen in the huge yard, under a osmanthus tree...

Well, that is the little Iris flower, kneeling there listlessly, with his hands raised high, holding a washboard in his hands, and there is a bowl of water on the washboard.

"It's flat! If it spills out, kneel for half an hour longer!"

An ordinary-looking, middle-aged woman dressed in gray robes stood beside her with a stick in her hand and shouted coldly.

She looked like a rural woman who was very common in the countryside, but when Chen Nuo saw it, her heart jumped!
Under the keen induction, it was as if he had "peeped" into a group of vigorous and flaming spiritual power!
Looking again, in the yard, Wu Taotao was sitting on a pony at the entrance of a main room.

It's just that his face is black and blue, and he is grinning and smearing plaster on his face.

"The courage is getting bigger and bigger!"

The middle-aged woman reprimanded Erya with a livid face: "Your master taught you, but you dare to do it with your master! This is called bullying your master and destroying your ancestors, do you know that!"

Erya cried and said aggrievedly: "Master, how dare I hit Master! It's really unfair!

It was obviously Master who beat me, I ran away, he fell a somersault and slammed his face on the threshold!

Even if I don't know the etiquette, I will never do something like this with Master..."

"Stay stubborn! Your master taught you, what are you running for!
Wouldn't you just kneel down and accept the punishment? "

The middle-aged woman glared and shouted.

"Then... who won't run away after being beaten!" Erya rolled her eyes: "If you teach your apprentice a lesson, won't he run away?"

"That's natural! What this sect teaches is a rule! When the master teaches the apprentice, the apprentice should be punished honestly! This is the truth!"

The middle-aged woman shouted.

Erya immediately shook her head: "Master, I don't believe it! My brother Tie Zhu would never be so obedient. If you punish him, he will also run away."

Tie Zhu, who was standing in the kitchen watching the excitement, suddenly felt his scalp go numb!
What the hell!

Little Junior Sister's means of revenge is here!

He was about to turn his head and run away, but was stared at by a middle-aged woman.

"Tie Zhu, come here."

"...Mistress." The boy walked over with a smile: "I've been working just now, I don't know anything."

"I asked you to come over and kneel, are you obedient?" The middle-aged woman stared at her apprentice.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and looked helplessly at Er Ya who was kneeling there.

Er Ya gave him a white look.

The teenager sighed, walked over slowly, and with a puff, he knelt on the ground side by side with Erya.

"Well, if my wife wants to punish me, of course I won't run away. What you want your apprentice to do is right."

"Okay, then you can kneel with Erya." The middle-aged woman snorted.

Saying that, she walked over slowly, stood beside the young man, and said with a cold face, "You are so young, where do you get so many ghost thoughts!
One by one, you don’t learn the good ones, and you learn from your incompetent master in terms of character!

Tie Zhu, I originally thought you were a simple and honest character, but now you have learned it badly!
What the hell did you do, the big brother!Nothing at all!

Erya is your junior sister, if you have something wrong with her, you should teach her a lesson with the attitude of a senior brother!

To engage in these crooked tracks is simply to lose the dignity of our sect!
And you, Erya!

Be smart in front of me!

If you don't agree that you were tricked by your senior brother, just tell me in an upright manner.

What are you calculating!
You two, you didn't have dinner tonight!Keep kneeling!Reflect on it! "

Saying that, the middle-aged woman sighed: "I don't have to worry about each one!"

Saying that, he glanced at Wu Taotao, who was grinning and applying plaster, "Old people don't worry, small ones are not worth it!
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!
It seems that in this door, the three fat children are the most honest! "

Erya listened, rolled her eyes, and muttered, "He's the real bad guy, okay!
Do you really think that the piece of bacon hanging on the beam a few days ago was taken by a wild cat? "

When the middle-aged woman heard this, she immediately stared and shouted, "What did you say!"

"I didn't say anything." Erya shook her head.

"Three Fatty!!"

The middle-aged woman immediately shouted loudly!
Pfft!
Suddenly, a chubby figure fell from the beam, and the whole person rolled into a ball on the ground, then slowly climbed up, wiped his fleshy face with force, and said with a smile: "My lady called me? I... I don't know anything! I meditate on the beam and sleep."

The middle-aged woman looked bad: "Your second senior sister said, you stole the bacon?"

"Bullshit!" San Fatty said with a straight face, "You and Master have both educated me on weekdays, and taking it without asking is a thief!
I, Ouyang Shanhe, walk upright, sit upright, behave in an orderly manner, and do things frankly, how can I do this kind of small business! "

Saying that, looking at Er Ya, she said sternly, "Senior sister, don't try to confuse people's innocence!"

Erya snorted, but didn't look at him, she just looked at the middle-aged woman: "Master, such a big piece of bacon can't be eaten in one meal."

The middle-aged woman's eyelids twitched, she turned her head to look at San Fatty, and took a deep breath: "Where did you hide the rest of the food?"

"What did the mother say, how do I know... It was obviously stolen by the cat... Oops!!"

Just halfway through, there was a scream!
I saw that the middle-aged woman suddenly had an extra whip in her hand, and it slapped San Fatty's butt at once.

The guy covered his butt with his hands and jumped three feet high.

"Say, where are you hiding? Don't let me ask a third time!" The middle-aged woman said coldly.

"...wrapped it in oilcloth, and hid it under the tablet of the patriarch." Three Fatty explained immediately, and pointed at Tie Zhu: "Eldest brother's idea! He said that it is safest to hide under the tablet of the patriarch." , you won't flop the cards!"

The middle-aged woman's face turned pale: "Okay! The boss, the second and the third... are not good things!
It seems that there is only the fourth..."

Having said that, he suddenly stopped talking.

The middle-aged woman ran into the back room, and after a while, pulled out a small one.

A little girl with a braided horn was brought out by a middle-aged woman.

The little girl rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand as if she had not woken up from a nap.

"Fourth girl, say, what's the best way to make bacon?" The middle-aged woman deliberately smiled softly: "My lady is going to make something for you tonight."

"Steam and eat! Steamed, cut into slices, and sandwiched with steamed buns... It's fragrant." The chubby little girl said while wiping the saliva from the corner of her mouth...

Suddenly, he glanced at the courtyard, where Tie Zhu Erya was kneeling, and San Fatty was covering his butt with his hands.

Xiao Budian suddenly shuddered, his eyes rolled a few times, and suddenly he made an "ouch" and put his hands on his stomach: "Sister, my stomach hurts, it hurts... I'm going to the hut..."

After only two steps, he was pulled back by his braids.

After a flutter, the little girl knelt down and covered her face with her hands: "It's not me, it's not me... When they steal the meat... I just help let the wind out..."

Seeing that Mistress's face is getting worse and worse...

"No! Where did you get the money for the steamed buns?"

"Ah this..." The little girl was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became embarrassed.

Seeing that the whip in Mistress's hand has been raised...

The little girl was in a hurry and screamed!
"Master's hidden money was discovered by us!!"

brush!
The whip was half raised and lowered gently.

"Fuck!!"

Wu Taotao suddenly jumped up from the ground and shouted, "The wicked spit blood! I..."

"Just under half a brick under the water tank! Wrapped in tarpaulin!"

Wu Taotao was stunned, his eyes met the middle-aged woman, and he ran away without saying a word!

The woman's face was ashen, and she chased after him with a whip.

Chen Nuo: "…………"

Standing outside the threshold, Chen Qiaoqiao thought for a while, and finally reached out and patted the door panel.

clap clap clap!
When Wu Taotao heard it, he immediately flew over and ran over, a whip behind him hit his heel, Wu Taotao jumped and almost plunged into Chen Nuo's arms.

Chen Nuo quickly supported Wu Taotao with both hands: "That... Big Brother..."

"Junior Brother, save me!!"

Seeing that the middle-aged woman was chasing him, Chen Nuo quickly pulled Wu Taotao behind him, stopped him in the middle and said with a smile, "This must be the sister-in-law..."

"Step aside!"

The middle-aged woman gave a cold drink, raised her hand, and the whip bypassed Chen Nuo like a snake and headed behind him.

Chen Nuo stretched out his hand to pick up the whip. The woman gave a "Huh" and shook her wrist lightly. Chen Nuo was about to grab the whip, but suddenly his hand was empty!
Chen Nuo's heart moved!
Now that his strength has recovered by about one-third, he can grab a shot, let alone a whip, even a bullet can be pinched!
"Wu Taotao! Come back!" The woman squinted at Chen Nuo, unable to tell where the other party was coming from, but her first reaction was to call her husband.

"This is my junior brother!" Wu Taotao stuck out half of his head behind Chen Nuo.

The middle-aged woman's eyes moved: "Junior brother? The Jinling one?"

"...Well, it should be me." Chen Nuo smiled politely: "Hello, sister-in-law, my name is Chen Nuo."

The vigilant look on the middle-aged woman's face suddenly stopped, and the whip in her hand disappeared with a flick.

Chen Nuo could see clearly that the thin whip didn't know what material it was made of. When the woman shook it lightly, it suddenly curled up automatically and retracted into the woman's sleeve.

This skill looks very clever!
The middle-aged woman looked at Chen Nuo carefully, and nodded thoughtfully: "I always hear him talk about you, that junior brother from Jinling City... I heard that you have a great background and are very capable..."

Chen Nuo was about to politely say "don't dare".

But I heard the woman sigh softly, shook her head and pouted the corners of her mouth: "...that's it?"

The smile on Chen Nuo's face froze.

The middle-aged woman squinted and glanced at Wu Taotao behind Chen Nuo: "There are guests here, I'll let you go today. Come in!"

"Eh!"

Wu Taotao breathed a sigh of relief and was about to come back.

"I said let Chen Nuo come in!

let you in? ! "

The middle-aged woman's eyes widened, and Wu Taotao suddenly became shorter.

"You give me a good reflection here! When will you understand, when will you enter the door again." The middle-aged woman said coldly.

Then he glanced at Chen Nuo: "I'm a guest from afar, come in and drink a glass of water."

·
Well, this middle-aged woman really is.

When you say drink water, you really drink water!

There was a small table in the yard, and Chen Nuo sat on a small pony.

There is a bowl of water on the table in front of you!

The color of the water is clear, and it is guaranteed that a piece of tea leaves does not contain any foam.

The middle-aged woman sat quietly in front of Chen Nuo.

"Mr. Chen Nuo, don't you stay in Jinling, come to our door, what's the matter?"

Chen Nuo was also looking at the middle-aged woman.

This woman is very skilled, and she spied on the other party's mental power before, although she only used the newly acquired "sensing" ability to observe from a distance, and did not spy in detail.

But this woman's mental strength is indeed very powerful.

Looking at her ordinary appearance, she wears a gown that is also common for rural women.

All over the body, the only thing that is more peculiar is the pair of eyes.

On the eyeballs, there are more white and less black, and it looks a bit weird.

"It's really something." Chen Nuo thought about it and smiled: "A few days ago, I was thanked by Senior Brother Wu who came to help me. I encountered some troubles that time, and I was also thankful for the help of Senior Brother, ah yes, and your apprentice. Erya... little friend Situ Beixuan..."

"Then you came to express your thanks?" the middle-aged woman asked.

"Uh... well."

The middle-aged woman heard the words, looked at Chen Nuo, shook her head and said, "It's not right."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

The woman's tone was stunned, and she said coldly: "Since you have spared no effort, you have come so far to express your gratitude. But I see you, you didn't even bring a bag, and you came to thank others, so you have empty hands?"

"Uh……"

"Jinling is here, if you come by car, the ticket will cost dozens of dollars.

You come to the door to say thank you, don't say bring some gifts.When entering the entrance of the village, it is also good to cut a few catties of meat when passing through the market.

Coming to the door with empty hands, seeing that it's getting late, I can't say, I have to keep you for dinner...

Are you here to thank someone?

Or come over for dinner?

How can today's young people do things so poorly? "

Even Chen Yanluo, who calls himself a dog saint, could not help but feel uneasy when he heard these words, and his face became hot.

"What the sister-in-law said is indeed the truth!"

Chen Qiaoqiu was also very happy, looked up at the house in the courtyard, and saw the statues and tablets in the main room in the middle...

As soon as my heart moved, I slowly said: "But the sister-in-law misunderstood me.

How can I be so ignorant!

I was thinking, if I buy some cheesy food gifts, I can't express my gratitude to my senior brother!
That's it, I'm a bit of a family, this time I'm here, I want to do my best to help senior brother to reshape the statue of Qingyunmen's enshrined god!

how is it? "

"Remodeling the golden body?" The middle-aged woman's face suddenly became much kinder.

"Correct!"

"That...it's a lot of money."

"It's okay, I'm out." Chen Nuo smiled.

brush! !

The middle-aged woman smiled and suddenly took out a notebook and a pen from under the table, and slapped it on the table!

Turning a page, I picked up a pen and wrote it down quickly!

"There is a good man Chen Nuo, who is dedicated to the Tao, and his heart is piety and kind! For the promotion of Taoism, I will help with money! Special donations:
Gold powder: Eight taels of eight coins.

A grade of cinnabar: ten jars.

Tung oil: ten barrels.

Incense candles: ten volumes.

The materials and expenses for the statue are miscellaneous, and donations..."

Having said that, the woman raised her head and glanced at Chen Nuo: "Junior Brother Chen, apart from the materials that are mainly consumed... I'm afraid I will also need some money for other miscellaneous items."

Chen Nuo thought about it.

The main consumables such as gold powder and tung oil have been counted.

The rest of the main body of the statue actually doesn't cost a lot of money.

In the countryside, you can find some workers, masons, carpenters, etc., to build statues, sand, stone, wood, and labor costs, but it's not much.

Prices in 2001 were low again.

Three or five thousand is enough.

Be cool, just double it for him.

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Then I will donate eight more..."

"Okay, then eighty thousand."

The woman quickly grabbed the conversation and quickly wrote the number "[-]" on the paper.

Puppy Chen was stunned!
The woman quickly finished writing, then swiped, tore off the piece of paper, and pushed it in front of Chen Nuo.

He smiled and said: "Junior brother, there is no evidence, since it is a donation, there must be a written evidence.

Come on, please sign below.

By the way, press the handprint too! "

After speaking, a box of ink pad was thrown in front of Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo looked at the banknotes and ink pads in front of him...

He looked at the four apprentices who were kneeling there to receive punishment in the yard.

There is also Wu Taotao who is squatting outside the courtyard to reflect...

Look at the woman in front of you.

What the hell! !

This Qingyunmen, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!

The root is in you!
