Immortal of Book and Sword Chapter 52: The farmer and hermit
The summer is scorching and very hot.
Chen Guhong and Ma Zhong and his wife walked along the stream to the western hill. At the foot of the mountain, cross the wooden bridge to the north, and then go up the mountain from the mountain road.
The mountain road is narrow and steep, Ma Zhong took out the hatchet behind him and opened the road ahead. Ma Zhong's wife followed behind, while Chen Guhong was at the end.
"Master Chen, be careful with your step." Ma Zhong's wife looked back to Chen Guhong very caringly.
"Okay." Chen Guhong nodded. In fact, he is strong and strong, and it is easy to walk in the front of the mountain. However, facing the weird man Ma Zhong, it is better to keep a low profile.
Walking along the mountain road, a group of people soon reached a place full of bayberry trees. At this moment, the tree is covered with bayberry, which is immature, but also magnificent.
And under the bayberry tree, there are weeds.
After came here, Ma Zhong picked up his **** and bent his body to remove the grass. Ma Zhong's wife smiled at Chen Guhong and said: "I have ten bayberry trees in my family. My grandson's purpose is probably to ask the son to help weed the weeds. However, the son is free to do so, and he doesn't have to work too hard." Then, Ma Zhong's wife also started. weeding.
"I went to his house for three days for nothing, and now we are weeding. A weird person is a weird person." Chen Guhong looked around, exhaled in his heart, chose a bayberry tree and weeded under the tree.
The **** swings and falls, and every time there is grass clippings and dirt flying up.
Chen Guhong is strong, and he is also very skilled in picking up a hoe. His movements are swift and weeding is faster than Ma Zhong. Ma Zhong's wife was surprised, and even Ma Zhong's dead face had some subtle changes.
Chen Guhong felt a little happy seeing this.
"You have a dead face, calling me up the mountain to weed, making me inexplicable. But no matter what the purpose is, I, Chen Guhong, is not really weak."
Thinking about it, Chen Guhong's movements became more swift. Before noon, the weeds under the Shizhu Yangmei tree were removed. Chen Guhong's victory was more than half.
"Thanks to Mr. Chen, I can rush back to eat at noon." Ma Zhong's wife looked at the sky and said with a smile.
"You're welcome." Chen Guhong smiled.
Immediately, the three of them cleaned up together, how to go up and down. After lunch, Chen Guhong followed his wife Ma Zhong to the field and weeded the vegetable field.
This time Ma Nong, Ma Geng's two little brothers also followed.
The two little brothers are holding bamboo baskets, their little faces flushing, and they are very excited. When he came to the field, Manong pulled Chen Guhong's sleeve and begged: "Uncle, uncle, help us catch snails together."
"The snails are delicious." Ma Geng couldn't help nodding.
At this moment, Ma Zhong and his wife are busy in the vegetable field. Chen Guhong took a look, did not ask, smiled at Ma Nong at will: "Okay."
"Glitter."
The little brother laughed, and went with Chen Guhong to catch snails in the nearby rice field.
snails are big and small, and Chen Guhong and his little brother specialize in the general size. The big ones are unpalatable and the small ones are not easy to eat. The medium size is just right.
There are a lot of snails in the field. Soon the three of them caught enough snails for two plates.
"There are snails to eat at noon." The little brother smiled openly, clapping his hands and cheering.
Chen Guhong looked at the innocent smile of the little brother, and then looked at the snails in the bamboo basket, he was also in a surprisingly happy mood, and smiled: "A good dish to go with wine."
Soon after, the two little brothers left together. Looking at the back of the little brother leaving, Chen Guhong returned to the vegetable field to help Ma Zhong and his wife continue their farm work.
There is work on hand, and time is fast. Soon the sun went down, and it was almost evening. Ma Zhong and his wife picked up the hoe, greeted Chen Guhong and went home.
Two tables were divided into two tables in the evening, Ma Zhong's wife, Madam Ma, and two little brothers. Ma Zhong, Lao Ma, Chen Guhong at the table. There is a large plate of fried escargots on three of them, plus some snacks.
a jar of rice wine.
snail rice wine, cool!
Three more days passed. During these three days, Chen Guhong was extremely fulfilled, idle clouds and wild cranes, and farmer in the field. The feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle and self-satisfaction became more intense.
so that he almost forgot the county test, but he had his own pursuit and hatred. Almost forget, but still can't forget.
the first three days and the next three days, the total is six days. As the county test was approaching, Chen Guhong became a little anxious.
Fortunately, this day, the situation has changed a bit.
On this day, Ma Zhong and his wife did not go to work in the fields, so Ma Zhong sat under the tree, leaning against the pine tree~IndoMTL.com~Volume. This is the first time Chen Guhong has seen Ma Zhong study, which is very novel.
Ma Zhong raised his head and glanced at Chen Guhong. The face of the dead was still the face of the dead. He asked: "How about these days?"
"Enrichment." Chen Guhong answered honestly and came to Ma Zhong and sat down beside him.
"Not only is it fulfilling, it is also fun, but it can also live a long time, and it can be practical." Ma Zhong said, the dead man's face showed a little bit of joy and satisfaction.
Chen Guhong looked at Ma Zhong’s expression, and then thought of Ma Zhong’s life, there was a vague sense of sympathy in his heart, and a little more dazed.
At this time, Ma Zhong put down the scroll and said: "There are many conspiracies and tricks in the world. Although fame and fortune are good, they are also more dirty. I will count you today, and I will count you tomorrow. I know my friends tomorrow and enemies today. , Alliance of Tomorrow. Everyone puts on a mask. The senior officials on the temple seem to be smart, but they are actually absurd and life-saving."
"So I studied and thought I was rich, but I asked for the fame of that talent to save my family from slavery. What do you think?"
asked Ma Zhong.
"The joy of idle clouds and wild cranes is hard to know by ordinary people." Chen Guhong replied. At this moment, Chen Guhong knew that Ma Zhong was a hermit among scholars.
is a tall man, but he is happy to be at ease.
Compared with the clever people in the temple, who is smarter~ IndoMTL.com~ Who is more cunning, but mysterious.
As Tang Bohu said in the Peach Blossom Temple song, "He has to drive me to be free."
Ma Zhong cocked his mouth slightly, seeming to be smiling. Then I raised my head and asked Chen Guhong, "I see a lot of people, and I know that you are at ease when I see you. These days I will let you relax and have a taste of the farmer's taste. Do you still want to ask for that fame? ?"
"I want something, it's hard to rest." Chen Guhong also said seriously.
"What do you want?" Ma Zhong asked.
"Xiang!" Chen Guhong said.
"Fairy?" Ma Zhong laughed, feeling absurd and unruly. Said: "Is it still unknown whether there are immortals in this world? What you ask for is too ethereal."
"I know it." Chen Guhong said.
"Really?" Ma Zhong didn't think Chen Guhong was a liar, he was surprised.
"Really." Chen Guhong nodded.
"Okay." Ma Zhong shook his head, got up and patted his butt, and said: "Then I will write you a guarantee document."
"Wait a minute." Chen Guhong stopped Ma Zhong.
"What's wrong?" Ma Zhong asked back.
"Brother Ma knows the grudge between me and Wu Xiude?" Chen Guhong asked.
Ma Zhongshi smiled and said: "I am also a talented person. What is Wu Jianai? Besides, I am a wild villager, without desire and desire. If there is no desire, he is strong. Let him be a sharp blade, and he can destroy me?"
" Instead, I want to laugh at him, as well as those scholars who didn't protect you and don't associate with you. What they read is Yan Zi's benevolence and etiquette, but it is just the copper smell of fame and wealth. Disdain, disdain."
Ma Zhong laughed, a dead face suddenly came alive~ IndoMTL.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at ~ IndoMTL.com~ For mobile users, please visit read.
