Chapter 35 Find a way

The soft wind is blowing slightly, and the fragrance is bursting.

On the green grass by the stream, a man and a dog looked at the gurgling water in a daze, with a melancholy expression.

The blue but deep eyebrows were furrowed into unresolved melancholy, and then he sighed softly.

Zhao Tieshu didn't know why the little daughter-in-law was unhappy, but if she was unhappy, she was also unhappy.

When he was young, his mother always said that women should be coaxed, but she didn't explain how to coax him. If there is no god to guide him, he might not understand.

"Hey, big fool, why are you sneaking around here?"

There was a clear youthful voice with a pleasant smile, and then the sound of footsteps passing through.

Zhao Tieshu turned his head to look, showing a kind smile.

The person who came was a lame little beggar in the village, about twelve or thirteen years old, with ragged clothes and holes in his shoes.

If there is anyone in the village who is willing to have goodwill with Zhao Tieshu besides Shen Xian, it is only this little beggar.

Perhaps it was the experience of wandering when he was a child. When Zhao Tieshu met this little beggar before, he always had sympathy and would bring him some prey from time to time.

The little beggar knows how to repay his kindness, and he is not sophisticated, and he never took Zhao Tieshu as a fool because of his stupidity, asking for food everywhere.

The two came and went like this, and gradually became acquainted.

Zhao Tieshu reached out and patted the green grass, signaling the little beggar to come and sit down.

Holding a wooden stick, the little beggar limped over and sat down on the grass.

When Jingui saw a stranger, he walked around him vigilantly, sniffed lightly, with a disgusted expression on his face.

When the little beggar saw the big yellow dog, his eyes lit up, "I said why the big dog over the haystack disappeared, so you kept it."

Since Jingui was adopted, he bid farewell to the life of eating and sleeping in the open. He ate three meals a day, and his thin body gradually became stronger.

The little beggar's bright eyes saw its changes, showing envy.

Zhao Tieshu rubbed the dog's head of 'Jingui', and said rather flamboyantly: "This is what my wife wants to raise."

The little beggar was stunned for a while, and became more and more envious.

"It's great, you have a daughter-in-law."

Hearing the envious tone of the little beggar, Zhao Tieshu felt a little proud, but the same little daughter-in-law got angry, and he drooped.

"But the little daughter-in-law is angry today, and I don't know how to coax him."

When the little beggar heard this, he immediately became excited. He has received a lot of care from Zhao Tieshu on weekdays, and seeing that he has something on his mind, it is time to help him think of ways to repay him.

He rolled his eyes and stood up abruptly.

"I have a way!"

"What way?" Zhao Tieshu asked hastily.

The little beggar rubbed his chin and said: "Girls are angry. Generally speaking, as long as you buy them some jewelry, they will be happy."

Zhao Tieshu's face turned bitter, and he turned both pockets inside out.

"But I don't have money to sell jewellery. Is there any other way?"

The little beggar racked his brains and walked up and down in front of Zhao Tieshu with a walking stick.

"Have it!"

The little beggar clapped his hands, remembering the play he had sneaked into the theater to watch, "I saw that the scholar coaxed the girl in the play, and they wrote love letters. Those deep boudoir girls were happy after reading them. You can find someone to teach you how to write them." One letter, your wife will definitely be happy."

"Okay, this method is good!" Zhao Tieshu's spirit lifted, and his mood immediately improved.

At this time, Shen Xian still didn't know how much trouble Zhao Tieshu had suffered because of her petty temper, she was watching the three Zhou Pinyan brothers sweeping the pastries like a wind-blown cloud with dumbfounded eyes.

"Slow down, slow down, don't be afraid of choking, you didn't eat at noon!"

Zhou Pinyan's cheeks were bulging, and he said inarticulately: "I have eaten, but I only ate a little bit."

Gu Rujiu looked back at the woman who was sweeping the floor, and complained in a low voice: "Our teacher's wife's cooking is too bad."

"Yes, it's unpalatable!" Li Suisui agreed very much.

Shen Xian glanced unexpectedly at the middle-aged woman not far away, and quietly asked: "That is your teacher's wife?"

"Yes, let's keep our voice down so she doesn't hear it."

Zhou Pinyan lowered his voice, and continued to complain about Mrs. Ma's cooking skills, until the basket of pastries was empty.

Afterwards, the four of them set up mahjong on the stone table in the yard, and Shen Xian pointed out their skills.

Because Zhou Pinyan and the others are different from ordinary students, they are knowledgeable mahjong, so the teacher's wife Xu Yun didn't say anything, just listened to Shen Xian's lecture from a distance, worried that she would mislead the students.

After listening for a while, Xu Yun dispelled the doubts in her heart. Shen Xian's understanding of mahjong and control of the situation were beyond her reach, even much better than her husband Wang Shiming.

The afternoon passed quietly, and other children from the academy also came to watch. Obviously, playing mahjong was much more interesting than shaking their heads and reading in the room.

But the strange thing was that Shen Xian didn't see the master of the academy all afternoon, but it had nothing to do with her, so she didn't ask any more questions.

"Okay, okay, don't send it away, you go back, I will come to see you some other day."

On the arch bridge, the three children were reluctant to leave, and they felt much better when they heard that Shen Xian would come again.

"Goodbye, Sister Shen!"

"Goodbye."

Shen Xian waved his hand with a smile, and went home with a bamboo basket.

Not long after she left, Xu Yun appeared behind Zhou Pinyan. She held Gu Rujiu with one hand and Li Suisui with the other, with a grim expression.

"You three brats, how dare you tell outsiders that Master's cooking is not good?"

Gu Rujiu was the least courageous, trembling with fright, and the teacher's wife was the scariest when angry.

"Master, you see that the master is back."

Zhou Pinyan pointed casually, then winked at Li Suisui and Gu Rujiu, and the three ran away.

Xu Yun was empty and rolled her eyes angrily.

Not long after leaving the academy, Shen Xian couldn't wait to open the system to check Zhou Pinyan's favorability.

【Zhou Pinyan】

【Favourability 50/100】

"Not bad."

Shen Xian was very satisfied with the increase in favorability by about [-] points.

"The little girl picking mushrooms, wearing flowery clothes~ la la la."

Carrying a bamboo basket, bouncing on the way home, the light pink skirt fluttered, attracting the attention of many people.

When he was about to get home, Shen Xian could vaguely see the sun shining on the tiled roof, and casting ink-like shadows under the eaves of the door.

Zhao Tieshu sat alone on the threshold waiting for her to come back, and 'Jingui' didn't know where he went.

Seeing this scene in Shen Xian's eyes, she felt a little guilty.

When she went out at noon, she became angry from embarrassment and lost her temper. She shouldn't make the big fool sad.

With doubts in his heart, Shen Xian walked over quickly, "Why don't you just sit in the room?"

When a daughter-in-law came back, Zhao Tieshu stood up immediately, with joy overflowing from his eyes.

"Shh-"
