This late Ming Dynasty is outrageous

Chapter 166 64: There are two trees in front of my house

evening.

Lin Zhennan and his wife took Xiao Yilin down the mountain, looked at the things piled up in the house, the couple rolled their eyes helplessly, and then took Yilin to pack them up.

"It's true that Pingzhi is too lazy to do any work."

Lin Zhennan complained while moving the pots and pans to the kitchen.

Yilin smiled when she heard the words: "Daddy, Pingzhi is a man, how can he do with these sundries at home."

"That's right, how can my son do housework, only men who have no ability do housework."

Lin Wang also nodded in admiration, and said something to Lin Zhennan.

Lin Zhennan looked at the things in his arms with a dark face, but after all, without saying a word, he walked away with his head down.

If the family status is ranked in order, then Lin Zhennan must be the lowest at this moment.But there was always something wrong, it was clear that Lin Zhennan was the head of the family before.Why has Lin Zhennan's status been declining due to the great changes recently?

Lin Zhennan couldn't figure out the key points, but thought that this change should be good. At least Lin Wang smiled more, talked more, and treated him less politely, and the two became closer instead.

……

"There are two trees in front of my house, one is an apricot tree and the other is also an apricot tree."

Cao Kun walked back with his hands behind his back, wandered around the door, then patted the two trees at the door and said with emotion, and then opened the door and walked in.

Seeing the lights on at home, Cao Kun knew that Lin Zhennan and his wife had returned.He closed the door, casually took out the packed things from the ring, and then walked towards the main room calmly.

"Father, mother, I bought you something to eat."

"And little Yilin, didn't you always want to eat candied haws and feel embarrassed to buy them? I bought two for you, you can eat one and watch the other."

Cao Kun yelled before he reached the main room, wanting others to know that he had done a good deed.

He walked into the main room happily, but saw that the mess had been cleaned up. Lin Wangshi and Xiao Yilin were sitting at the small table drinking tea, but Lin Zhennan used the light kung fu of evil swordsmanship to gather up the sundries in the corners, and then Throw it in the yard.

He found the correct way to use martial arts.

"Pingzhi..." Mrs. Lin beckoned, "Sit down quickly."She then said: "Chennan, come and take a look. Pingzhi bought delicious food, don't be too busy. Please invite some servants tomorrow and leave it to them."

Cao Kun sat down, and Lin Zhennan went to wash his face and hands.

Xiao Yilin got up and opened the things one by one, put them neatly, then picked up a candied haws, spit out the tip of her bright red tongue and tapped it, her eyes lit up: "It's so sweet, thank you husband."

She grasped the candied haws with both joyful hands, and licked them bit by bit, skillfully.

Cao Kun laughed and rubbed Xiao Yilin's bald head: "Today, I offended the monk of Shaolin Temple because of my husband Menglang, and that's why my whole family was kicked off the mountain. It's quite pleasant to eat and drink on the mountain When you get down there, you will feel wronged by Xiao Yilin. But don’t worry, our family is rich, and if we find a group of servants later, you will still live a small life of clothes, hands, food, and mouth.”

Xiao Yilin smiled sweetly: "I think what my husband said is reasonable, but the monk's thinking is wrong. But the song is also very nice. On the way back, I saw many people in the martial arts who came down the mountain were also singing it."

Cao Kun laughed loudly: "It's a pity for that Bodhisattva. I don't know if the Bodhisattva will be lonely and unbearable without you and me paying homage every day."

Xiao Yilin rolled her eyes and thought she was guilty, but the little foot under the table kicked Cao Kun, telling Cao Kun not to talk nonsense and not to be disrespectful to the Bodhisattva.

Cao Kun laughed strangely.

Wang Lin next to her was fiddling with the dishes without raising her head and said, "Does Pingzhi like Buddhism very much now?" She was quite worried, for fear that Cao Kun would be infected by Buddhism and lose interest in having children.

Cao Kun nodded: "Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, there is always some truth. Take the essence and discard the dross. Although it may not be helpful for practicing martial arts for the time being, it is also wonderful to increase some postures."

Xiao Yilin kicked Cao Kun again, and warned with wide eyes: don't talk nonsense.

Lin Wang smiled and nodded: "You can say a lot of truths now. Yilin was born in Buddhism, and you also like Buddhism. The two of you are not boring."

Lin Zhennan washed his hands and face, but his body was still dusty.He walked into the main room and sat down. Hearing the words, he chuckled lightly: "It's all heresy. If you just say these words, others don't understand? Don't monks understand?"

"However, people in this world are only human beings. It is impossible to make all four things empty, and it is impossible to make all living beings equal. If all living beings were truly equal, there would be no tenant farmers in Shaolin Temple, and there would be servants."

"Although Master Fangzheng couldn't tell Pingzhi's fault clearly, he was unwilling to argue with Pingzhi's heresies. So he had to drive us down the mountain to prevent those young monks from being bewitched."

"In fact, even if there is no Pingzhi, we should go down the mountain. The purpose of selling cheat books in Shaolin Temple is now open, and we can sell one or two wherever we go."

"Master Fangzheng hinted that I would give Shaolin some benefits a few days ago, but I pretended to be stupid and fooled it. What happened to Pingzhi now is just a pretext."

After Lin Zhennan finished his analysis, he grabbed a deep-fried stick and put it into the bowl of Hu spicy soup, dipped it hard, and then ate it with big mouthfuls.

There is still no patent fee for Hu spicy soup in this era.

If Cao Kun sent some Hu spicy soup vendors of this era to later generations, he wondered if he could snatch the patents.

Maybe maybe not, they are just peddlers, and Cao Kun is just a street stalker.

Lin Zhennan wolfed down a few mouthfuls, and then said with a smile: "My husband asserts that there will definitely be people from the Wuyue Sword Sect to exchange the cheats in the past few days. Even, many friends from the rivers and lakes who come here because of their reputation will also come. At that time, our family's business was not only not affected, but became more prosperous."

When Lin Zhennan talks about business, his eyes shine.

He discovered that this world is not just about fighting and killing, business can also be mixed.

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door.

Lin Zhennan laughed loudly: "See, just as we went down the mountain, someone couldn't help but come to the door. Pingzhi, open the door quickly, I want to see who is so impatient."

Cao Kun nodded and stuffed an egg into his mouth, wondering if he wanted to make a tea egg.But after thinking about it, tea is expensive these days, and if it's boiled eggs, most people probably can't afford it.

If it is sold to rich people...

Isn't it good for rich people to do it themselves?
If you really make tea eggs by yourself, there may be such an interesting scene:

A certain servant was proud and arrogant: "You tea egg is very promising. Our master Ma has taken a fancy to it. Let's talk about it. Our master Ma bought you."

Cao Kun: "Not for sale, this is my ideal."

Hearing the words, Master Ma smiled lightly: "Not for sale? I must have it, let's do it ourselves..."

[Writing here, the author suddenly feels something is wrong, because I read a message a long time ago, it seems that the tea egg came out a long time ago, so I googled it and found that this thing existed in the Shang Dynasty, brothers, don’t worry about this, just pretend that the author didn’t write it]

Cao Kun ate the hard-boiled eggs, then puffed out his cheeks and clapped his hands to get up to open the door.

When he came to the gate, he pulled the latch, and then opened the gate a crack. Cao Kun looked through the crack.

But he saw a gray-haired mighty old man standing there with his hands behind his back and his back to the gate.

Standing beside the old man were two big men carrying golden knives, who looked like they were from the martial arts world.

Perhaps he heard the voice, the old man slowly came back to his senses, and saw the eye in the crack of the door, he not only laughed dumbly: "Pingzhi, why are you sneaking around, hahaha..."

Squeak.

Cao Kun opened the door with a puzzled face: "Old man, who are you?"

The old man's face froze: "I am your master."

Cao Kun's face became even stiffer, and he was about to blurt out that I am your father, but the two guys with golden knives next to his toes grinned: "We are your uncle and uncle, you brat, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and you don't even know each other?" We are."

Cao Kun silently estimated that he was only eight years old now, more than ten years ago, and more likely five or six years old.

It's strange to remember this.

The transportation in this ancient time was inconvenient, and it was quite difficult to walk around with relatives and so on.

Wang's family is in Luoyang, and Lin Ping's family is in Fuzhou.To be honest, the journey is still very far away. If you are visiting relatives during the holidays, you have to leave a month in advance to catch up with the festival.

Therefore, if the ancients didn't need it, even if they missed it in a panic, even a couple would not move easily.

That's how the swan geese passed on the book.

Cao Kun blinked his eyes and showed a smiling face. If someone delivered a chicken to his door, of course he would welcome it warmly.

So he turned and ran...

At the door, Mr. Wang and his two sons saw Cao Kun turned around and ran away, and went in without welcoming him. The three of them were dumbfounded.

At this moment, I heard Cao Kun's excited voice from the yard: "Father and mother, grandpa and uncle are here, and they are at the door."

Immediately afterwards, there were hurried footsteps, and Lin Wang's scolding: "My father is here? You child, why don't you let people in."

"Nonsense, you're so ignorant even after you're married, quickly take me to meet you." This is Lin Zhennan.

At the door, the father and son looked at each other with complicated eyes: What a dude.

"Father-in-law, two elder brothers..." Lin Zhennan walked quickly, opened the door and appeared in front of the three of them like a puff of smoke. This sudden move made the three of them feel shocked, but the greed in their hearts became stronger. point.

Mr. Wang rubbed the iron gall in the palm of his right hand, flinched Lin Zhennan with one hand, and then took Lin Zhennan's arm, laughing with incomparable intimacy: "Zhennan, don't be too polite. It's dark outside, go in quickly, Let the old man take a good look at you."

He is a dragon and a tiger, with thick fingers.Coupled with the two swords, this arm strength is amazing.There is a strong force coming from a grasp, and ordinary people really can't bear it.

Lin Zhennan smiled slightly, not caring about the force.However, he knew that although Mr. Wang was rough and fine, he often looked rough in front of outsiders, and he did things carelessly. This was also Mr. Wang's way of life.

If he is really a rough and brainless guy, how can he become a local snake in the martial arts world of Luoyang?
Seeing Lin Zhennan's breezy wind and cloud, Mr. Wang was secretly startled and bitter at the same time.Back then when he asked Lin Zhennan to be his son-in-law, the first reason was that although Lin Yuantu was dead, the prestige of the Lin family was still there.Second, he did take a peek at the evil sword technique, after all, that sword technique does have magic power.

However, as time went by, the reputation of the Lin family disappeared. To be honest, Mr. Wang would not regret it. After all, the Lin family is also famous in the world, and it is considered famous in the martial arts world.

It's just that compared with expectations, there are still some disappointments. ,
Now feeling that Lin Zhennan's breezy calm had dispelled his own strength, Mr. Wang was quite complicated.

If he had been caught like this in the past, Lin Zhennan would have smiled wryly and begged for mercy.

Various thoughts swirled in his mind, but he walked like a tiger, almost supporting Lin Zhennan to move forward.There are no elders in the Lin family. As a father-in-law, he, the old man, has no taboos at all.

"Zhennan, I think Pingzhi is a little too honest. This is not acceptable, and it is easy to be bullied."

Mr. Wang pulled Lin Zhennan forward and said, "Who would turn around and run shyly after seeing his relatives. As a man, he should be fearless and have a heart like steel. I have said a long time ago that I would not let He reads so many books, but you two don't listen to him. Don't you know that every time you kill more dogs, ungrateful people are mostly scholars."

"Not to mention the past dynasties, Du Shiniang in this dynasty alone is enough to be a warning. The world loves scholars so much, but they look down on us warriors. Don't you know that warriors are rough, but they also value faith. If there is The disaster of destroying the family, natural disasters and man-made disasters, can scholars be relied on?"

Mr. Wang's voice is very loud, and he is not afraid that Mrs. Lin Wang in front will hear it, so he will come as soon as he speaks.

After all, Lin Zhennan had a sense of respect, so he had to promise slightly.

On the other hand, Lin Wang's brows were erected in front, pinching his waist with one hand, and his voice was not low at all: "Father, you just said that we are a husband and wife, if you teach well, you won't see two elder brothers become successful. In terms of martial arts, they can't beat me."

First brother-in-law and second brother-in-law: "..."

Mr. Wang stared: "You girl, I said you are not doing it for your own good?"

Lin Wang was quite pungent: "Don't talk nonsense, I reminded daddy for his own good. You are getting old, and the new generation in the rivers and lakes replaces the old one. The elder brother and the second brother are so unbelievable, and the younger generation is also a person who is greedy for wealth. If you live again After a few years, can my royal family still have the current status in Luoyang City?"

"Ma'am, don't talk nonsense, my father-in-law is in his prime, and he can live another 100 years."

Lin Zhennan pulled Lin Wang and persuaded him.

However, Mr. Wang laughed loudly: "What I regret most is marrying you off. If I had found a son-in-law back then, I think I would definitely not worry about it now."

His tone was lonely, and he didn't know if it was real or acting.Lin Wang took a look, and then smiled: "Daddy, come in, Pingzhi and his wife are waiting in the house. Our family has not seen for a long time, you must have something to talk about when you suddenly come to the door."

Mr. Wang's face was stiff: "I just missed you, and I came to see you during the martial arts conference. It's true that you are here, how can my Wang family not come to the martial arts conference? I don't see you, a girl, coming to visit. Could it be that I really forgot my father. "

Lin Wang didn't pay any attention to it, and only cared about getting the tea and pushing it over.The demeanor of the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes is fully displayed, and she is not timid even in the face of her father.

"Father, this is Yilin, a senior student of Hengshan, and now Ping's wife. Yilin, meet grandpa soon."

Cao Kun and Yilin hurriedly saluted, and Mr. Wang sat on the grand teacher's chair and took out a cheat book from his arms: "Pingzhi, your mother is indeed right, your uncle and uncle are unbelievable. Your mother can't beat it."

"That golden sword of yours is already better than blue. If it's not because of your physique, I'm afraid it would be Grandpa and I, who would stay away. If you want to learn, it's best to have your mother teach you."

"But grandpa wasn't there when you got married. Now that we meet, grandpa can't help but say that this Wang family's golden knife book will be given to you and Yilin as a wedding gift. Don't dislike it."

Cao Kun has already learned all about the Luoyang Golden Sword, and even the Lin Wang family is no match for Cao Kun now.How can I say that the current Cao Kun is already considered a second-rate player in the arena.Of course, his internal strength is weak, outsiders will not take him seriously.

However, Cao Kun's physical body is sturdy, and his four kidneys are no joke.If it really broke out, if Cao Kun got the power to stick it with a golden knife, I am afraid that the head of the faction like Yue Buqun might not be able to escape in a short time.If one is not being careless, it is possible to have his head cut off with a knife.

Mr. Wang only looked at Cao Kun's lack of internal strength, his lightness kung fu, and his heavy footsteps when walking, so he deduced that Cao Kun's physical strength might be ordinary, and at most he was physically stronger.He sent out the golden knife with some sincerity.

In this day and age, especially for people in the martial arts world, you can practice other people's martial arts in private, but if you really use them openly, it will really cause trouble.

When reading novels, I often see that pig feet get some treasures or supernatural powers by chance, and then crush other families.

In fact, to be honest, these families are really pitiful. Not to mention being occupied with treasures and supernatural powers, they will also be slapped in the face. Maybe the daughter-in-law can also bring it along.

Let's discuss the matter as it stands, in accordance with normal human etiquette.

As Cao Kun is the grandson of the Wang family, if the Wang family were stingy, they would definitely not let him practice the golden sword.Even if you practice in private, as long as you don't use it clearly, then it's not a big problem.If it is used clearly, and the Wang family wants to cause trouble, people in the martial arts will definitely not stand by the Lin family.

What is passed on to men and not to women, what is passed on and so on, that is the way of saying, the bottom line is that it cannot be passed on to outsiders.

Now that Mr. Wang personally sent this cheat book, it doesn't mean that the cheat book is better and more comprehensive.Instead, tell the Lin family that the Wang family's saber techniques can be used openly and aboveboard in the future.

This is equivalent to you sneaking into your neighbor's good brother's daughter-in-law and your good sister-in-law, but your good neighbor's brother takes you and your sister-in-law to various occasions and agrees with your identities.

You won't need to be sneaky in the future.

Of course, this example is not appropriate, and you may not be willing to be above board.

Sneaking is exciting.

　One more afternoon
