Zhang Yongsheng nodded and said: "Don't worry, it is my duty to take care of him. He is my nephew. If he becomes a master of medicine and martial arts in the future, I will be very proud of him."
Zeng Guoquan smiled and shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter whether he is a master or not. As long as he can practice the eight words of 'hanging a pot to help the world, treating diseases and saving lives' throughout his life, I will be very satisfied."
Zeng Yi solemnly promised: "Grandpa, please rest assured. My grandson will definitely keep these eight words in his heart. When he goes out in the future, he will definitely practice these eight words and save the poor people in danger."
After staying in Zeng's pharmacy for a while and chatting about martial arts, medical practice and poisoning, Zhang Yongsheng left. Zhang Yongsheng was very relieved to hand over the secret book left by his ancestors to his ancestors and grandchildren. Based on his understanding of his grandfather and grandson, they would not use these skills to harm others.
From now on, if Zhang Yongsheng wants to carry forward the true martial arts, he will naturally need help, and Zeng Yi is his designated right-hand man. Zeng Yi is a genius in medicine and martial arts, and he grows up very quickly, so he can be of great help. Zhao Yunfei is much slower and still needs several years of polishing.
After returning home and drinking tea for a while, he took the gift and went to Zhang Xuewen's house through the back door. Every time he comes back, he visits some relatives, mainly to maintain relations with his parents. If relatives do not interact with each other for too long, the relationship and affection will fade, and it will be inconvenient to do anything in the future.
Zhang Yongsheng walked through the back door with the gift. The door was in a small alley, and opposite was the back door of Zhang Xuewen's house. He stepped forward and knocked on the door, but it was not closed, so he pushed it open and entered. Entering is a small courtyard, the layout of which is the same as that of Zhang Yongsheng's house. The two small courtyards were built at the same time and are roughly the same in all aspects.
The house next to the small yard is the kitchen, and the sound of pots and pans can be heard from inside. Zhang Yongsheng walked to the door and saw his second aunt and Wu Qiuyue making dinner. Wu Qiuyue was busy with her work, and her second aunt was telling her something while she was busy, to the effect that she should stay in the town and not go out to work.
Zhang Yongsheng listened for a while and interrupted: "Second aunt, are you busy? Is my brother here?"
Second Aunt Zhang turned around and discovered Zhang Yongsheng. She smiled and said, "It's Ah Sheng. I just heard that you were back. I also said that I would go over to see you, but you came here first. Are your parents okay at home?" ?”
Zhang Yongsheng nodded and smiled: "My dad and mom are okay. They drive cars outside and contact us by phone every week. If they can't come back, I can only participate in the Ghost Festival on their behalf."
Second Aunt Zhang nodded and said: "His uncle is very capable. He has traveled all over the world and has seen the world. We are nerds when we study literature. We can't do anything but sit in the study room reading, which makes people worry."
Zhang Yongsheng shook his head and said: "That's different. My dad has no education and can't do anything except drive. Brother Xuewen is an iron rice bowl. Who doesn't envy him in this town?"
Aunt Zhang sighed and said: "He has a lot of education but can't make a living. He can't make much money even if he looks like a teacher outside. He can't even keep his wife. I'm trying to persuade your sister-in-law to stay in the town from now on." Go up. Even though we make less money, it’s better than anything else if the couple doesn’t live apart.”
Wu Qiuyue was unhappy and said: "This is not a little less, but a lot less. You have also seen the money I got back. Is this what you can earn in this town? I understand that you want to have grandchildren, but children always You need money, right? How can you support yourself if you don’t make some money in advance?”
Aunt Zhang said unconvinced: "How much money can you spend to raise a child? A child who won't grow up can't eat much, just earn a few is enough. I think you are ambitious and can't stay at home. ”
Wu Qiuyue retorted: "Mom, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. It's not easy to raise children now. Education, medical care, food and clothing, what doesn't cost money? I won't talk about big cities. Look at the counties. Children, which one didn’t just pile up money? What are you doing with this little money at home?”
Aunt Zhang said displeasedly: "Those are children from the county. How can our family compare? As long as the children are well fed, clothed warmly, and free from illness, why are there so many scenes? I used to take the literary studies all by myself. , he is full of diseases, and they say he will not live to be eighteen, but he has grown so old that he became a teacher in school. "
Wu Qiuyue couldn't help but looked at Zhang Yongsheng. Zhang Yongsheng persuaded: "Second aunt, times have changed. You can't always look at people with the same old eyes. Children in the future will have to travel and see the world. Education is the most important when they are young. The hardships my sister-in-law endured outside, It’s just to make up for the education I received when I was young.”
Second Aunt Zhang shook her head and said: "What are you doing out there? It's good to just stay in the town. People outside are so bad, and if something happens, Tiantian won't respond. We are all from the countryside here, and we all help each other if something happens." "
Zhang Yongsheng asked with a smile: "Second aunt, do you know who built this yard?"
Aunt Zhang nodded and said: "Isn't this built by your great-grandfather? He gave birth to two sons. Before his death, your grandfather and Xuewen's grandfather each left a set of courtyards. It also caused a sensation in Zizhu Town back then. Then At that time, our Zhang family was called Fengfeng, and no one in the countryside didn’t know about it.”
Zhang Yongsheng continued: "My great-grandfather was also born in Zhangwan Village. The village was very miserable. That year, there was a flash flood, so he had no choice but to go to Zizhu Town to make a living. He started as a waiter in a small restaurant, and finally got this place. The family property was left to future generations before his death."
Second Aunt Zhang thought for a while and said: "I know everything you said, but people outside are not as good as Zizhu Town, and people's hearts are very unpredictable. When I studied literature and wanted to go to a technical secondary school, I didn't agree. It was your father who made the decision. He went out. Later he came back and became a teacher in school, which was quite good."
Zhang Yongsheng explained: "When my great-grandfather left Zhangwan Village and went to Zizhu Town, his eyes were still dark. His parents still felt that it was dangerous here, but he still came and created a huge family business. Brother Xuewen If he hadn't been ill, my father would have found a way to place him in the county."
Wu Qiuyue also said: "Mom, what Ah Sheng said is right. There is a reason why Xuewen stays here, but the children of the Zhang family cannot always stay in the ravines. Look at many family members in Zhangwan Village. While they are busy working outside, some of them are still branching out in big cities, and their children at home also have bright futures.”
Aunt Zhang sighed: "I can't tell you what, anyway, I still think Qiuyue should stay in the town. She and Xuewen have been married for several years, and they don't even have a child. This has become a joke in the neighborhood. She If we go out again, when will the birth of the child be confirmed?"
Wu Qiuyue defended: "You have to take your time when giving birth, you can't rush it. Xuewen's health is not good, so rushing too much will be bad. And this time I won't go far, I will sell clothes to people in the county. You can take leave for ten days and a half and come back, why are you worried?"
Aunt Zhang was full of disbelief: "You can't make much money in the county, so what's the difference between it and in the town? Don't lie to me. I know you are used to living in big cities and look down on this small town."
