Zeng Dazhuang moved the hoe on his shoulder and said to Zeng Erxiong: "Er Xiong, will your family's big tiger and Erhu be delivered to Mr. Ji when the autumn is coming? I have made a plan, and I will see the harvest in a few years. Yes, there is also Xiao An who helped me for a while. When the millet is collected, I will send Xiao Niu to Mr. Ji. I don't want to be special, just know a few more words, which is much better than me. Besides, , you see, after the Dashan family sent the child over, that family's nose was going to face the sky when they walked."

Chapter 856 A Letter

Zeng Erxiong heard the words, his burly body seemed to be hunched over, Weng said: "It's not like you don't know my family, it's good to be able to eat now. Besides, I'm two boys, how much food do I need? Another day. I'll go around the mountains more to see if I can hit something bigger."

Zeng Dazhuang frowned and said, "No one will go into the mountain with you until the day you enter the mountain. If you go alone, if you run into something big, don't say if you can't hit it or not, and if you can't come back, it's all a problem. ."

Zeng Erxiong sighed and said, "Let's talk about it."

At this moment, the reddish afterglow of the setting sun shines on Zeng Erxiong's weather-beaten face, and the black hair on his wrinkled forehead has turned slightly gray, looking a bit desolate.

At this time, at the fork in the road, Zeng Erxiong said goodbye to the two, and then walked alone to a small road.

Zhang Yang looked at Zeng Erxiong's burly figure who had gone away, thoughtful.

Not long after walking along the path home, Zhang Yang and Zeng Dazhuang returned to their yard, where He Xiaolian was placing food on the table under the poplar tree in the yard.Seeing the two come back, he took the hoe and bucket hat and water bottle, and gave them a basin of water to wash their hands.

Zeng Dazhuang washed his hands, looked around for a week, and asked He Xiaolian, "Where's Xiao Niu?"

He Xiaolian didn't reply with her meal, "I went to Dahu's house."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Xiaoniu jumped in from outside the yard, holding something in his hand.

Seeing this, He Xiaolian reprimanded: "You don't know how to come back after eating? You can just go to someone else's house to eat."

Seeing the old lady's anger, Zeng Xiaoniu shrank his neck and said weakly, "I met Uncle Stone when I came back. He just came back from He Village. Grandma asked him to bring a letter, and he gave it to me."

He Xiaolian grabbed the letter and looked at it from the front and back. She turned her head to Zeng Dazhuang and said, "Dazhuang, take it to Mr. tomorrow and ask him to take a look."

Zeng Dazhuang knew that his mother-in-law hadn't returned to her parents' home for a long time, and he was only worried about thinking.Shaking off the water on his hands, he wiped it on his short jacket again, took the letter and replied, "I'll go tomorrow morning."

With a move in Zhang Yang's heart, he stepped forward and took the letter from Zeng Dazhuang.On the envelope was written, He Xiaolian.

Zhang Yang took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "I can read this letter."

The whole courtyard was silent, and Zeng Dazhuang asked curiously, "Have you ever been to school?"

Zhang Yang pursed his lips, thinking that his guess was actually correct, and said indifferently: "I have been there for a few years."

He Xiaolian was overjoyed, glared at Zeng Dazhuang and said anxiously, "Then Xiao An, hurry up."

Zhang Yang nodded, glanced over and read slowly: "Xiao Lian, my son opened it up in person, let's say goodbye for a long time, how is it now?"

Zeng Dazhuang coughed twice just after reading a few sentences, and said in a low voice, "Xiao An, you can make it clearer."

Zhang Yang looked up at He Xiaolian, He Xiaolian looked straight at Zhang Yang, and the fat face was full of confusion.Zhang Yang nodded, read the letter silently, and said, "The letter says that I miss your family very much. How about the crops in your fields this year? Are you all in good health? Is the calf obedient? Well, and father He Zhiyuan I'm not in good health, I hope you can go and see. There's nothing else."

He Xiaolian and Zeng Dazhuang were silent after hearing this, only Zeng Xiaoniu was very happy when he heard about him, and shouted to go to grandma's house.Zeng Dazhuang gave Zeng Xiaoniu a slap, and Zeng Xiaoniu was honest.

After dinner, He Xiaolian went to clean up, Zeng Dazhuang and Zhang Yang sat in the yard, Zeng Xiaoniu took a bath in the yard naked.Zeng Dazhuang looked at Zeng Xiaoniu who was playing in the water, and said to Zhang Yang in a deep voice, "Xiao An, where exactly is your home?"

Zhang Yang looked at Zeng Dazhuang's swarthy face worrying about gains and losses, then looked at Zeng Xiaoniu happily pouring buckets of water on his body, and said, "It doesn't matter where I came from, I'm sure I won't be able to go back anyway. I'll probably live here for a long time."

After Zeng Dazhuang listened, he no longer had to worry about gains and losses on his face. He looked into Zhang Yang's eyes and said, "In this case, I would like to ask you to teach Xiao Niu to read and write." After he finished speaking, he stood up and bowed.

Looking at Zeng Dazhuang who was saluting respectfully in front of him, Zhang Yang was silent for a while.I feel that I have learned the words of this world, and that the people here have such a high enthusiasm for learning knowledge.

Seeing that Zhang Yang didn't respond, Zeng Dazhuang thought that his request was too rude, so he still hunched over and said uneasy: "As long as the gentleman is willing to teach the calf to read, he will not need to go to the fields to work in the future, and the food and the food will be covered by me."

Zhang Yang woke up startled by Zeng Dazhuang's words, and hurriedly helped Zeng Dazhuang to sit aside.Then he looked at Zeng Dazhuang sincerely and said, "Uncle Dazhuang, I have only read for a few years, and what I have learned is not very advanced. If you want to teach Xiaoniu to read, there will be no problem. As for the gentleman, naturally I don't dare to take it. Besides, my life was saved by Mavericks, and it is rare to have a chance to repay now, so don't say anything else."

When Zeng Dazhuang heard Zhang Yang say this, he realized that it was Zhang Yang who lacked confidence in himself, and said hurriedly, "You can teach me, but I didn't think about how much knowledge I want Xiao Niu to have, as long as he can read. In the future, if Xiao Niu is not obedient. , you tell me, and I'll clean him up."

Then after hesitating for a moment, he said, "In the future, Xiao An, you should stay at home. It should take a lot of time to teach Xiao Niu to read."

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said, "Just teach him a few words. It doesn't take a day. When it's time to go to the fields, I'll go with you."

Seeing Zhang Yang's insistence, Zeng Dazhuang stopped mentioning the matter, turned around and pulled over the cheerful Zeng Xiaoniu who was playing, and said to Zeng Xiaoniu: "In the future, you will learn literacy from Mr. Zhang Yang, and you must be obedient. Come on, give it quickly. Salute sir."

Zeng Xiaoniu hadn't figured out what was going on. He only saw his father being very happy for a while, then he was vicious to him again, and he heard that Zhang Yang's brother suddenly became his husband. Finally, he saw that his father was excited He let himself salute Zhang Yang, and then bowed to Zhang Yang with his bare buttocks and bowed to the end.

Zeng Dazhuang saw that Zeng Xiaoniu was just bending over and saluting, which was different from what the apprentice did when Mr. Ji accepted his apprentice. Afraid that Zhang Yang would not be happy, he said to Zeng Xiaoniu: "I have to do what I did when I saw Mr. Ji accepting his apprentice last time. That kind of gift."

Zeng Xiaoniu still didn't understand what was going on, he just listened to what his father said and did what he did.So when his knees were weak, he fell to his knees.

Zhang Yang’s eyes were quick and his hands were quick. He held Zeng Xiaoniu up and said, “It’s just to ask a teacher. This etiquette doesn’t need to be too grand. I’ll accept Xiaoniu as a disciple, and I’ll teach Xiaoniu how to read in my spare time. As for education, I will do my best."

When Zeng Dazhuang saw Zhang Yang say this, he was overjoyed: "Then please Xiao An."

Zhang Yang nodded, Zeng Dazhuang pulled Zeng Xiaobei aside, and rushed into the room happily, thinking that he was going to tell He Xiaolian about Zhang Yang's teaching Xiaoniu to read.

At night, the sound of frogs all around made the whole world seem extremely quiet.

Chapter 857 The etiquette of apprenticeship

Zeng Xiaoniu opened his eyes and looked at the dark night when he couldn't actually see anything. He thought that he had learned from a teacher at night, and that he would learn to read, and then he would definitely enter the city. There are many delicious food and a lot of clothes in the city. .

Zeng Xiaoniu became more excited the more he thought about it, and then turned over.The other side of the bed is empty.

Zeng Xiaoniu sat up suddenly, and heard Zhang Yang say, "Since you're not asleep, let's get up and talk."

Zeng Xiaoniu sat up according to the words, and heard the sound of getting dressed, but it was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything.

Suddenly, a light broke in from the darkness, and the bright moonlight poured in from outside the door.Zhang Yang stood at the door, glanced at Zeng Xiaoniu, who was under the extremely long shadow drawn by the moonlight, and walked out.

Zeng Xiaoniu felt his clothes, put them on, and then walked into the yard.

The moonlight is bright tonight, so everything in the yard is fully illuminated.
