Chapter 168 Make up your mind to fight

Although the weather is extremely hot, Fortune Telling Street is much cooler than other places.There are two rows of acacia trees on both sides of the alley. In summer, the place is always filled with the fragrance of acacia flowers.

Xu Xiucai leaned back in the chair, staring at the top of the tree for a long time.I don't know how long it took before I lowered my head.

Because of staring at the sky for too long, his eyes became blurred, and he took a long time to look at the girl who was sitting with her eyes closed and meditating.

Gradually, his gaze became firm.Finally, he stood up, put the bag on his back, and said to Heart: "I don't want this table and chair, I give it to you."

Hongtao opened her eyes and got up happily, "Thank you very much." Then she picked up the two futons on the ground and sat on them.

Xu Xiucai couldn't help smiling, stood for a while, and then said: "Your brother is very good at fate, and I think your physiognomy is not bad. Today's advice, Xu will keep it in his heart, and if he can really get good luck in the future, thank you for your kindness."

Heart waved her hand, "Thank you for your kindness. Don't forget that I am Master Heart in the future."

Xu Xiucai bowed his hands in salute.Then put the things on your back and walk out step by step.

Honghua Street.Quiet as usual.Xu Xiucai stepped into it, turned eastward and westward, and finally came to a small courtyard.Smelling the beany smell wafting from the courtyard, he took a deep breath, stared at the door for a long time, and then patted it.

Soon, the door opened.A woman came out from inside with a quiet and peaceful face. Although she looked to be in her forties, she could still see her youthful beauty.

"Mother." Xu Xiucai called out with a smile, and walked into the courtyard.

As soon as you enter the small courtyard, it is not big, but it is also exquisite.Soybean milk is being ground on the stone mill in the yard.Xu Xiucai walked over, grabbed the mill handle and pushed it up.

The woman laughed, walked over and pushed him away, "How are you qualified for this?" Then she asked, "Why did you come back so early today?"

Xu Xiucai didn't insist, and sat on a bench next to him, "Mother came back early today, and the tofu is all sold out?"

"Well, the business is good today. It was sold out early in the morning. I just want to come back and make some more quickly. I will sell it again before it gets dark." The woman said while pushing the mill.

Xu Xiucai hummed, lowered her head, and looked at the constantly rotating stone mill. The more she looked at it, the more dizzy her eyes became, and she quickly turned her head away, "The sun is so bright, take a break, mother."

"I'm not tired. It's rare that business is good today." The woman smiled and said, "Since you're not going to set up a stall in the afternoon, why don't you go out for a walk? It's not good to stay at home all the time. Go talk to your former friends. How about meeting."

Xu Xiucai squeezed her hands, her throat was so uncomfortable, she swallowed hard to keep her voice from choking, "Mm, have you had your lunch yet?"

"I don't feel hungry, I want to make this pot of tofu quickly, and I can eat it when I'm done." The woman said, and the stone mill moved a little faster.

Xu Xiucai thought for a while, "Then I'll make lunch, but I haven't eaten yet."

When the woman heard this, she let go of the stone mill in her hand, got up and wiped her hands, "Why haven't you had lunch yet, mother, go do it, you wait."

Xu Xiucai paused and sneered, "I really didn't like what I did."

The woman shook her head and said with a smile: "The man is far away from the kitchen. It's not your turn to do the work in the kitchen."

Xu Xiucai followed the woman's footsteps, entered the kitchen room, and sat down in front of the kitchen to light the fire.The woman tried a few more words of persuasion, but seeing that he really didn't listen, she could only smile and give up.

But after burning for a while, the fire was not strong enough, the woman finally persuaded Xu Xiucai to leave, and sat down to light the fire by herself.

After setting up the firewood, the fire in the stove ignited, and the woman got up again to wash the pot and add rice in the water, and finally asked Xu Xiucai, "What do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat roasted tofu." Xu Xiucai sat down in front of the stove again, carefully throwing a small stick into it from time to time.

The woman smiled and said, "The tofu made by mother is delicious."

"Ah."

The sound of cutting tofu can be heard on the chopping board. It is very soft and light, but the speed is not slow.Xu Xiucai pondered for a while, and then said: "Mother, I plan to continue to take the exam."

The voice on the chopping board did not stop, the woman just said "yes" in a normal manner, and then said: "You are the material."

Xu Xiucai paused for a while, "But."

"There's nothing wrong with it. My son is the smartest child in the world. If you go to take the exam, everyone will give way to you." The woman said proudly.

Xu Xiucai also laughed when he heard this, "It's not so powerful, I'm not the reincarnation of Wenquxing."

But the woman retorted: "When you were just born, I met a fortune teller by accident. He said that you are the reincarnation of Wenquxing, and you will definitely be an extremely human minister in this life."

Xu Xiucai paused for a while, before saying, "Why didn't I hear my mother say that before?"

The woman smiled: "I told you when I was a child. You must have forgotten it. Didn't you not want to study later? Mother thought that man was a liar, so she didn't mention it again."

Xu Xiucai blew his nose, "Mother, don't worry, my son will definitely climb to the position of being under one person and above ten thousand in his life. I want everyone to know that you are my mother. I want everyone to know that you are my mother." Call you old lady."

The knife in the woman's hand was still cutting, but she didn't answer immediately. After a while, she heard a gratified voice, "Mother never insists on this. I just hope you don't care about mother, don't care about you Dad, you can do whatever you want, and mother will support you."

Xu Xiucai finally couldn't hold back his suffocated breath, and tears fell down.He lowered his head, watching the teardrops hit the stove ash on the ground one by one, making small holes one by one, took a few breaths, and then stared at the ground resolutely, "I want to be a minister of the extreme right now. "

The practice time passed quickly. Hearts meditated all afternoon, and when they opened their eyes again, it was almost dark.She quickly grabbed the banner and walked back, but after taking two steps, she threw the banner in the corner again: After waiting for a whole day, no one looked at the picture, waiting so boringly, she didn't want to do it anymore, she might as well go Have a good time finding death.

When they got home, Wen Ya and Xu Lan had already returned, and dinner was already prepared.After washing her hands, Hongtao went to the table to eat, but after seeing Shi'an, she pursed her mouth.

"You want me to look at that scholar on purpose, right? You want me to call him?"

Shi'an smiled, "Accept him a favor, and it's a repayment."

"You want me to pay back the favor. You've made a good plan. I sat there and fed the mosquitoes for a whole day, but I didn't have any customers." Heart complained endlessly.

"For a stall, the business is naturally good and bad, and it will get better slowly."

Hongtao took a mouthful of rice sullenly.The eldest sister has rich children to teach, and the second senior brother has officials waiting in line. Even the senior brother has mistaken himself as a qualified farmer, and only she is like an erratic duckweed.

"Sister, after dinner later, there is something I want to discuss with you." Qing Yu looked at Heart with a smile.
