Apprenticeship (1)

At two o'clock, Uncle Liu drove the bullock cart towards the village. During this period, everyone in the car looked at Zhang Xu curiously and whispered, but because of his serious face, he exuded the "Keep away from strangers" His breath was so strong that no one dared to come forward and talk to him.

Looking at Zhang Xu's appearance, he laughed in his heart. He didn't expect this person to have such a side. He usually didn't look like this in front of her.

The ox cart arrived at the village half an hour later. Zhang Xu took the basket off the ox cart and carried it on his back. He said hello to Uncle Liu and walked towards the small courtyard with him.

When the people in the car saw Lu Zhiqing and the man leaving, they asked Uncle Liu who that man was. Seeing that the people in the car looked curious, he knew that if he didn't tell them now, they might be killed in the village later. There are rumors that he knows that these women like to gather together and gossip when they have nothing to do.

So he said: "That man is the son of Lu Zhiqing's father's friend. This time Lu Zhiqing went to play at his house, but they sent her back because they were afraid that it would be unsafe on the road."

As soon as everyone heard that this was the case, they immediately lost the desire to continue asking, and they all took their things from the oxcart and went home.

When he and Zhang Xu returned to the small courtyard, they didn't know what happened in the oxcart after leaving. They were now busy cleaning the house.

After finishing cleaning, I checked the time and it was only four in the afternoon. It was still early to make dinner, so I moved a chair with Zhang Xu and sat in the yard to rest.

"Do you have any business going to the city this time?"

Hearing Zhang Xu ask this question, he felt inexplicably guilty, but he quickly calmed down and said, "It's not like staying bored in the village and then going to the city for a stroll."

"Haha... It's great for you to go shopping here. You'll take out a smuggling gang as soon as you go."

Why did his words sound so unpleasant to my ears? Who knew that I would encounter something like this when I went to a scrapyard, and I couldn't predict it.

"I also think I'm quite powerful. This happened to me because no one else could."

Zhang Xu laughed angrily when he heard this. The little girl Qing is still proud of this. She really needs a lesson.

"Did you know that they all have wooden warehouses, and they have a large number of people and well-planned plans. If I hadn't known their plan in advance and deployed it this time, even I would have been involved."

After listening to Zhang Xu's words, he knew that he was being reckless this time, but he just didn't want to give in in front of him, so he just hummed and said nothing.

Seeing that the little girl knew that she had heard what he said, but she just refused to admit her mistake. Thinking that she had suffered in the car today and didn't intend to teach her a lesson, he would never admit it because he couldn't bear it.

The two of them didn't speak after talking about this, and just sat quietly in the yard to rest, with a faint warmth surrounding them.

"Ah, how could I forget this?"

Zhang Xu suddenly heard the little girl yelling and thought something big had happened, so he said, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing serious. I just secretly gave things to people in the bullpen before. I didn't expose myself because I didn't know whether they were good guys or bad guys. I wanted to secretly observe them for a while and confirm whether they were good guys or bad guys before I decided. I continue to help them, but I’ve been so busy lately that I’ve forgotten about it.”

"If it's the four old men in the bullpen, don't worry. They are all good characters. They were sent here for some reasons. If you have the ability and can avoid being discovered, you can give them a little help."
