Chapter 23 Three fellow countrymen

Chen Jiechang turned his head when he heard the sound and sneered when he saw Li Libo: "Why can't it be me? You can come, but I can't come?"

"Hey, are you looking for trouble?" Li Libo rolled up his sleeves, pretending to teach Chen Jiechang a lesson.

Xiang Changsong stood between the two of them and said with a smile: "The relationship between the two is very good."

"Who has a good relationship with him? *2"

Liang Qu scratched his head on the side, Chen Jiechang, he also had an impression of this person.

There are many people in Yixing City, with over a thousand people, half of whom are fishermen's families, and there are only a few dozen people of the same age, including Li Libo and Chen Jiechang.

Liang Qu was fifteen or sixteen, Li Libo was seventeen or eighteen, and Chen Jiechang was older, almost nineteen or twenty.

Compared to Li Libo, who had two eldest brothers who had a somewhat idle temperament, Chen Jiechang only had an older sister, and he himself was a well-known fishing expert, with an income of more than a hundred yuan a day, almost the same as Liang Qu now.

Chen Jiechang didn't have a golden finger, he really relied on his own ability to catch it.

Xiang Changsong said: "It's not that no people from Yixing City have come here in the past, but it is relatively rare to have three of them at the same time. Since you all know each other, the next thing will be left to Junior Brother Liang and Junior Brother Li."

Liang Qu nodded: "Okay."

"Brother Jack."

"A water."

Chen Jiechang nodded, and his attitude was obviously better than that towards Li Libo. When it came to him learning martial arts, there was something about Liang Qu.

On the day they caught treasure fish together, Chen Jiechang was completely overshadowed by Liang Qu. They were both young people, so they were naturally unhappy and felt that they had been robbed of the limelight for nothing.

But on the day when the autumn taxes were paid, Chen Jiechang saw with his own eyes what Liang Qu had done, and his anger turned into admiration.

To be fair, if it were him, he would definitely be reluctant to take out the stone rice. Then I heard that Liang Qu went to learn martial arts...

Chen Jiechang already had a lot of money from selling Baoyu, plus what he had saved previously, he had a lot of surplus after paying the autumn taxes, so he started thinking about finding a way out.

After a while, Mr. Lu came back. After learning that he had another student, who was also from Yixing City, his brows furrowed again, but he soon regained his composure.

Chen Jiechang sensed that something was wrong, and what happened next confirmed this. If Liang Qu and Li Libo hadn't pointed out the mistake, he would have no idea whether the tricks he performed were correct or not.

Before coming here, I thought that because of the low status of fishermen, I might be discriminated against, but I didn't expect it to be so serious.

If Liang Qu and Li Libo hadn't laid a solid foundation under Hu Qi's guidance before and could take the place of guidance, they probably wouldn't have learned a few good lessons in a day.

If he hadn't heard Liang Qu say there was a martial artist he could count on, Hu Qi, Chen Jiechang would have almost lost his temper.

Liang Qu consoled him: "Just bear with it a little longer and wait until I finish learning Crane Fist. Then I will teach you."

Some of the pile skills in the three boxing techniques are the same and similar, and only about one-third of them are significantly different. If you have the basics in the past, you will learn them quickly.

Yesterday plus this morning, Liang Qu has finished learning Tiger Fist, and he is expected to finish learning Crane Fist by tomorrow.

Chen Jiechang took a deep breath and suppressed his irritation: "I'm sorry, Ah Shui."

"It's a small matter. There are only three of us in the martial arts school, so we naturally have to help each other."

Li Libo curled his lips: "Why didn't you tell me to trouble me? I taught you just now, okay?"

"You? Huh."

"?"

...

"You said that boy went to learn martial arts?"

In the courtyard, Zheng Xiang, dressed in white brocade clothes, walked around the peach tree. The withered leaves were falling, making him appear to be in a confused state of mind.

The boy in linen clothes on the side bowed: "Yes, I have been following you for many days. The boy named Liang seemed to have suddenly enlightened for some reason, and his fishing methods became more and more powerful.

About half a month ago,

He actually caught a treasure fish called a horned pomfret and sold it for sixty-two and a half cents. Then he went to the Yang Family Martial Arts School to learn martial arts. Master Hu from the martial arts school also said that he had a good bone. He had been there for more than ten days now. "

"Yang's Martial Arts School? The third young master also learns martial arts there, right?"

"Yes." The boy paused, "Oh, one more thing. Two days ago, during the autumn tax, a fisherman named Chen Qingjiang owed seven buckets of rice and was almost sent to Lanzhou to dig a canal. It was that boy who took the money. I came out to make up for it with three buckets of rice and six coins. I asked about it and said it was because Chen Qingjiang had given the boy a piece of sesame seed cake and several kilograms of grain before. "

Zheng Xiang was a little surprised, then squinted and sneered: "A piece of sesame cake and a few kilograms of grain can be exchanged for a stone of polished rice. I want to do such a good deal."

The boy Ah Quan remained silent.

Zheng Xiang walked around the peach tree again and suddenly cursed: "That guy named Lin is really hateful. He sent me out for more than a month for nothing. He is like a bitch!"

There are two housekeepers in the Zhao Mansion, the first housekeeper is Lin Guiyong, and the second housekeeper is Zheng Xiang.

In fact, Zheng Xiang was not a housekeeper, but a domestic servant in the Zhao family. However, he was smart and tactful, and gradually became the second housekeeper in the family.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Lin Guiyong, the chief butler, could not just watch Zheng Xiang get up and affect his status, so there were often frictions and constant competition between the two.

Zheng Xiang tried every means to please the old man, and Liang Qu was one of his methods. But before he could succeed, before the old man's sixty-fourth birthday, he was sent away by the chief steward to go to Huangzhou to deliver gifts and handle affairs for the second young master. went.

It's been more than a month since I came back. Not only did I miss the great opportunity to show my face on my birthday, but I could only have my subordinates deliver the congratulatory gifts hastily.

Although the second son was very happy and praised him for doing a good job, the second son was not the one in charge of the family, not to mention that there was an eldest son above the second son.

Until Zheng Xiang remembered that there was still a handsome young man with good looks in Yixing City who could be operated, and heard from the servant that the boy went to learn martial arts, he was extremely depressed.

Master Yang was extremely careful about his reputation. If there was any accident during his apprenticeship, Yang's martial arts school would definitely check it out, even if it was just a pretense.

Knowing that Zheng Xiang forced buying and selling, there would definitely be trouble.

Zheng Xiang was very surprised. Why would a person who was about to starve to death in the mouth of the bald man change so drastically.

Could it be that he really had a sudden enlightenment?

Zheng Xiang didn't believe it, but he had to believe it.

At this point, it was impossible to act recklessly. No one dared to provoke the Zhao Mansion in Pingyang Town, but that was the Zhao Mansion, the old master Zhao, the eldest son, the second son and the third son, not him!

He still had to climb up!

Bullying a teenager is a small matter, and getting into trouble is also a small matter, but because he wasted the Zhao family's toilet paper, that's a big deal!

If the old man heard about it, he would never be able to replace Lin Guiyong and become the chief steward of the Zhao family!

Being cautious and treading on thin ice is Zheng Xiang's life creed.

"By the way, where is Baldy Zhang?"

"I haven't seen him since last time. I guess he is too embarrassed to see you."

"You are an incompetent person." Zheng Xiang cursed again. After a while, he suddenly asked, "A Quan, in Pingyang Town, have any poor people ever made it through martial arts?"

"This... maybe." A Quan laughed awkwardly, "I haven't heard of the other two. Yang's martial arts school has been open for more than ten years. There have been a few poor martial artists who have passed the test, but definitely less than thirty."

"So how many poor people have entered Yang's martial arts school in the past ten years?"

A Quan quickly calculated: "Five or six per month, more than ten years... nearly a thousand."

"A little less than a thousand? Ha, then we will wait patiently for two months."
