"Oh -" the old man shook his head and said to Huzi: "You said that the four of you were looking for a place to spend the night, so why did this kid come to my door to pick up the door? Do you have no money for accommodation? Want to be a thief?"
"To be honest, we just came from Mianzuo. You may have heard that the custom there is to rob, uh, but we definitely don't mean that." Huzi said to the lazy man with a naive smile, "We haven't been here for a while. Please forgive me for changing it. If it's inconvenient, we'll leave immediately. Don't get angry, ha."
After Huzi finished speaking, he led them away. The old man waved his hand and shouted: "Hey - no, no, no, the old guy likes fun, as long as it's not for my eldest girl, that's fine!"
"Grandpa!" The woman shouted angrily and shyly.
The old man pointed at the woman and said, "This is my granddaughter, her name is Kite, ho ho ho ho."
"I'm Du Hu, I've met Miss Feng."
"Sister Kite, my name is Lingdang, hee hee." Lingdang jumped to Kite's side in a few steps. The two were very happy and seemed to like each other very much.
The old man stared blankly at the other two guys. Huzi hurriedly explained: "Old senior, this is my brother, his surname is Fang. He has a calm temper and doesn't talk much. This" Huzi grabbed Mu Ziyun's arm and lifted him up. He came over, patted Mu Ziyun on the back, and said, "Come, talk to the senior yourself."
"Hey" Mu Ziyun glanced away, his nose was still red and his mouth was still stained with blood.
"Huh?" The old man knocked on the wood and raised his chin forward, "You said I just swung a stick at your chest. Why is your nose so red?" Kite and Bell laughed one after another. Mu Ziyun turned his head displeased and said in a reluctant tone: "Mu Ziyun, I'm disturbing the senior." He dragged it on deliberately.
The old man laughed and said: "My name is Feng Renmu, and your name is Mu Ziyun. We used wood as soon as we met. We are so destined. Come in, kid." The old man turned around and walked in. Kite also lifted the basket filled with vegetables with both hands. , followed behind, and the old man said: "In addition to our grandfather and grandson, there are three or four servants in this house. There are no guests on weekdays. The rooms are all empty, but they are cleaned frequently and they are all clean."
Huzi followed closely and said respectfully: "Thank you, old man, we will give you the money."
"That's not necessary. If you're interested, just work with me for a few days. Once you get there, you'll be too busy to let go. The yard is full of women, and they can't do anything."
Kite patted Feng Renmu on the back, and Feng Renmu shouted: "Yes, yes, yes, except my granddaughter, hahaha."
Lingdang and Kite slowly retreated to the back. They held hands and murmured in low voices. Kite asked, "Lingdang, why is that guy so serious? He seems to be reluctant."
"Hehe, sister, Brother Mu doesn't talk much, but he is very strong. He protects us most of the time."
"Then this one" Kite pointed at Mu Ziyun, frowning and not knowing what he was thinking, but he couldn't express what he was thinking, so he just said: "He is a bit weird."
"Xiaomu, hehe, he likes to show off, he is very competitive, and he is quite strong even when he is crazy, but he can't compare to Brother Mu, eh, hehe, he can't compare to me, hehe," Lingdang said again, "If you ignore him, he will Such a temper." Then he pointed at Huzi and said, "That's our boss, he basically makes the decisions." He covered his mouth and leaned close to Kite's ear, laughing softly, "That guy Xiaomu is obedient in front of Huzi. , if he bullies you, you will find a tiger to deal with him, you will definitely succeed!"
Kite smiled and nodded, his eyes wandering for a while, and then he swallowed back what was on his mind.
Old Man Feng's home is quite large, with fifteen or sixteen rooms, and two artificial ponds. It looks quite charming. Huzi whispered: "Old senior, you are an important person in the city. Bar."
"Ha, a bullshit official is just an old and young person. You can't even count me on your fingers under the city lord. I'm old and useless. I don't want to buy some land outside and build a few houses. Okay. Move in with your granddaughter.”
Hu Zi thought to himself, no wonder, that girl Kite has a proud temperament but still has to choose the food herself. According to the old man, it is estimated that Kite's parents are no longer alive, or have traveled far away, and Kite is a girl, so it will not be easy for her to fight for power and gain. , the family fortune will of course slowly decline. Huzi has become more understanding of people and the world in recent years, and is much more mature than Muziyun and others.
"Oh, old man, we are all here. If we have any work to do today, we will do it today. We don't need to rest."
The old man glanced at Huzi and said, "He must be from Long."
"Uh yes."
Fang Tianmu came close to Huzi and said coldly in his ear: "The old man is from Long, strong."
Huzi looked at the old man up and down in surprise again, and said more respectfully: "Senior, just give me your orders."
"Get settled first and drink some tea. Even though you guys are Long people, you are still good enough to do my job."
When they got to the room, they just put the baggage on the table. Huzi led Fang Tianmu and Mu Ziyun to follow the old man to work. Lingdang was curious, so she followed along with Kite. During this period, Lingdang watched Kite hesitate to speak. , asked suspiciously: "Sister Kite? What's wrong with you?"
Kite covered his mouth with his hands, lowered his head and whispered to Lingdang: "Lingdang, don't you think Muzi Yun'en is weird?"
"No? He's pretty good. Sister, what are you talking about?"
"For example - smell? Don't you smell anything weird?"
Ling Ding's little nose was arched and she sniffed hard, "Huh? No? I didn't smell anything?" "Uh, it's okay, it's okay. I may not have had a good rest." Kite raised his head and happened to see Mu Ziyun turn his head. After staring at each other, the two people met again, and a feeling of annoyance appeared inexplicably in their hearts at the same time. Mu Ziyun narrowed his eyes, then turned around and followed Hu Zi. Kite breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly with Ling Dang. behind.
"Now, this is it." Old Man Feng pointed to a piece of land. A hole was dug in the ground, revealing light purple stones. "I bought these things twenty or thirty years ago and buried them here. They are good for building houses." The material has become damp after being left in the ground for a long time. These are the good days. Take it out to dry in the sun and be careful with your waist. This thing is very heavy." After that, the old man gave a muffled roar and struggled to lift a stone to his shoulder. He walked tremblingly to the flat ground ten feet away, carefully put down the stone, and took a few breaths of hot breath.
Mu Ziyun grinned and strutted up to the stone. He kicked up with his toes, clapped his hands, leaned down, grabbed both ends of the stone, "Yeah!" Mu Ziyun's mouth was half open, his cheeks were half open. They were all red, their buttocks were sticking out, and their bodies were stiff and motionless.
The corner of Kite's mouth curled up when he saw it, then he smiled and returned to his original state. Huzi was still waiting for Mu Ziyun to get up, when Old Man Feng hurried over, held Mu Ziyun's chest with one hand, and gently pressed his waist with the other, saying: "Slow down, slow down, you see, I said it was very heavy, right? Why are you using so much force?"
"What's wrong?" Huzi asked hurriedly.
"It's okay." Old Man Feng raised his foot and kicked Mu Ziyun's ankle, then spun his body and made him sit on the ground, "He's shaking his waist. He'll be fine in a while. Be careful, it's very heavy."
Huzi tried the stone and found that it weighed at least six or seven hundred kilograms. No wonder the Long people had difficulty lifting it. Huzi patted the stone and said to Old Man Feng, "Senior, please rest. Our brothers can move this stone very quickly." Just moved it."
Old man Feng felt that Huzi was bragging. Just when he was about to speak, he was surprised to see Huzi holding a purple stone in one hand and walking ten feet away with light steps. With a twist of his wrist, the two stones fell to the ground. The old man shouted : "Little Guitou, you are so strong!"
