Chapter 4 Reading is good!
The morning light was dim.
Wang Heihou got up from bed under his father's sharp eyes and scolding, and was washing his face with his butt lifted up.
Suddenly, he heard a voice not far away.
"Wow~ It's really rare. The child of the old Lu family also caught a fish!"
"Yes! Aunt Liu!"
"Great!"
"The old Lu family can have meat tonight!"
······
Wang Heihou stopped washing his face and ran outside with his bare arms. Then, he saw a petite figure walking towards the village entrance.
He was holding a fish that was three or four fingers big in his hand.
It was estimated that the fish had just been caught not long ago. It was not dead yet and twisted its tail from time to time.
Wang Heihou rubbed his eyes and walked forward a few steps. With the shadow above his head blocking the morning light, he could see the other person's face clearly.
"Erdan! How did you catch the fish!"
He shouted at the top of his voice.
Lu Changsheng paused, walked towards Heihou, and said with a smile: "Lucky, I just happened to encounter a small school of fish approaching!"
Wang Heihou was immediately envious.
He was good at catching fish, and knew that it was easy to catch fish in this situation, so he didn't take it too seriously.
He turned around and went to catch fish with his friends.
Lu Changsheng smiled, bypassed the crowded road, and walked towards home.
Lu's mother was making breakfast in the kitchen.
Xiao Heitu staggered to pick up firewood on the ground and handed it to Lu's mother.
Suddenly, the door opened with a creak.
"Xiao Heitu!"
"Brother!"
Xiao Heitu did not even turn his head, and picked up a small piece of firewood on the ground with great effort.
Lu Changsheng hurried over, feeling distressed and amused, so he brought the fish in his hand to Xiao Heitu.
With a click!
"Oh! Something fell!" Xiao Heitu was startled, causing a small piece of wood in her arms to fall.
She lowered her head to look for the culprit, and then suddenly froze.
"Wow! Fish~"
"A fish fell from the sky!"
The excited Xiao Heitu did not pick up the wood, but rushed over and pressed the fish under his body.
The fish struggled violently, perhaps because it felt an unbearable weight, and threw wood chips all over Xiao Heitu's face.
However, Xiao Heitu didn't care about that. He held the fish tightly in his arms and staggered to his feet.
"Oh, brother! A fish fell from the sky!"
She looked at Lu Changsheng behind her, her eyes narrowed like a crescent moon.
"Really?"
"Yes! Look, it's in my arms! Let's ask mother to make fish soup for us tonight, okay?"
"Okay!"
Xiao Heitu happily ran to the kitchen with the fish in his arms.
After a while, the old mother's laughter came from the kitchen.
Lu Changsheng turned his head and took a look. The expression on his father's face, who was preparing farm tools, eased.
"Thank you for your hard work. You can rest at home later! We can do the farm work!"
Lu Changsheng did not refuse.
His body was indeed not good. If the virtual panel could reflect his physical fitness, it is estimated that he did not even have two-thirds of the attributes of a normal person of the same age.
"It would be great if I could study!"
Lu Changsheng sighed.
"Alas~ Now I should try my best to take care of my body. I can't say I can restore my health, but at least I can't let it get worse!"
······
Lu Changsheng had breakfast and went out.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the village, he saw several people standing there, as if waiting for something.
The clothes of those people were neat and tidy, and the texture looked very good, at least they were not the coarse cloth clothes that ordinary people wore.
"It's Erdan!"
"Uncle Zhao!"
A middle-aged man turned around and looked at Lu Changsheng.
He said hello and continued to sit on the stone pier next to him.
"So, it's the Zhao family!"
Lu Changsheng said secretly.
The Zhao family is a big family in Zhaojia Village.
There are several families that are definitely the best in Zhaojia Village. I wonder how many girls want to marry into the Zhao family.
Before, someone introduced a person from the Zhao family to my younger sister Heitu, hoping that she would be a child bride.
However, not all Zhao families have good family conditions. After careful consideration, Father and Mother Lu did not agree.
Little Heitu is very sensible. They are reluctant to let her go now.
"Uncle Zhao, who are you waiting for?"
"Haha, waiting for a noble man!" Zhao Deshui, who looked serious, rarely smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, a carriage suddenly drove in from outside the village.
Although it was just an ordinary mahogany carriage, it still made the residents of Zhaojia Village feel a lot of pressure.
A carriage, not counting the horses, also has several taels of silver. For an ordinary family, it is estimated that they can only earn this much in most of their lives.
The Zhao family came to greet them.
Lu Changsheng looked at some people who were joining in the fun and asked, "Uncle, who is the person in the carriage?"
"Zhao Deshui's sister, I heard she married a teacher in Heishan Mansion as a concubine. Wow, this is incredible. This teacher is so stylish and really good at studying!"
"If I could send my child to school, maybe I could become a teacher in the future!"
······
The streets were full of envious discussions.
The carriage had a high frame. It entered the village and drove straight to Zhao Deshui's home before it stopped.
A woman got off the carriage.
Although she was called a woman, she was actually not very old. Lu Changsheng estimated that she was in her early twenties and looked pretty good.
At least, she was not like some fierce women in the village. Before they opened their mouths, you could smell the smell of gossip.
It can be seen that the family style of the Zhao family is somewhat different from that of other families in the village.
In the evening.
Some rumors spread in the village.
The sister of Zhao Deshui left a lot of money and items for the family, and said that she could let the young people of the Zhao family go to Heishan Mansion to study and learn to read.
This news immediately set off the whole village.
Before the night fell, someone ran to the Zhao family with some food.
"Erdan! Heitu!"
Father Lu was not idle either.
He took out his treasured dry tobacco, took a few puffs, and then put it back. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he took out a small piece of cloth from the bedside, which contained some silver and money.
When they arrived at the yard, they called Lu Changsheng and Lu Heitu.
"Here I come! Dad!"
Lu Changsheng pulled Heitu out.
After walking out of the gate and thinking for a while, Father Lu called his elder brother Lu Haozi again.
"You follow too. When you get there, be smart!"
Father Lu glanced at Lu Haozi.
"Or... I won't go!"
"No! I don't know what the teacher is thinking. What if he happens to like someone like you?"
Father Lu said firmly.
He has absolute authority at home. Lu Haozi can't refuse at all. He can only follow Father Lu and go to Zhao Deshui's house together.
Although Lu Changsheng felt that this kind of thing might be a little slim, he knew that this was a good opportunity, so he didn't say much.
However, when he arrived in front of Zhao Deshui's house, he realized that this matter might not have any result.
People crowded in front of Zhao Deshui's gate, all of them were people from the village.
Obviously, these people had the same idea as Mr. Lu, and they all wanted to get the help of that powerful teacher.
