Chapter 262: Immortals should stay away(1/3)
The second day.
Father Hua came to Zhang Heng silently.
In his original intention, he wanted to talk to Zhang Heng, asking Zhang Heng to do more work for the family, but it was unreasonable to eat and drink for free.
As a result, the two met face to face.
Hua's father opened his mouth several times, but he was too embarrassed to say anything. Finally he said: "Uncle is resting. Oh, rest. I'm going to work."
afternoon.
Hua's father came back from work.
Mother Hua quickly stepped forward and asked, "Master, have you told your uncle?"
Father Hua lowered his head and smoked: "Let's talk about it in a few days."
Mother Hua stamped her feet angrily.
Three days in a row.
Zhang Heng eats, sleeps and does nothing every day.
Day four.
The eldest and second eldest children came over. After hearing about Zhang Heng's habit of eating and being lazy, they snorted coldly: "I really invited an ancestor back."
Say it.
Never came again.
Half a month passed in a flash.
The weather is getting colder and winter is approaching.
Zhang Heng still goes his own way.
The Hua family was full of complaints. Even Hua Rou's brother and younger brother couldn't help complaining: "Father, mother, we are growing tall. When my uncle comes, we won't have enough to eat at all."
Mother Hua cried as soon as she said this: "Our family's life is already difficult, and here comes another freeloader. The food for five people now has to be served for six people. The food we calculated will not last until the spring."
Father Hua's head was pounded by crying, and he said in a deep voice: "Winter is coming soon. No matter how hard it is, we have to get through this year. Otherwise, how can my uncle survive outside in the coldest month of winter?"
Mother Hua is soft-hearted after all.
Thinking of driving Zhang Heng away, he might freeze to death outside in this cold weather, so he hesitated and said, "We can't do this when spring comes."
In a flash, it’s half a month again.
It has been a month since Zhang Heng came to Hua's house.
There are snowflakes falling outside and the weather is very cold.
In the entire Liu Family Fort, Hua Laosan and his family became a joke.
Who doesn't know now that there is a lazy and greedy uncle in Hua Laosan's house. He only eats and drinks all day long and doesn't even bother to sweep the snow in front of the door.
Zhang Heng listened but ignored.
If you want to be prominent in front of others, you have to suffer behind others.
I can endure this unbearable endurance.
Then you can enjoy that rare blessing.
There is a law for everything, nothing more than this.
"Uncle, I'm back."
noon.
Hua Rou, who disappeared all morning, returned with two rabbits.
Entering the yard, he first said hello to Zhang Heng, and then shouted: "Mother, I have trapped two hares in the trap. I will stew one at noon to replenish my uncle's health."
Mother Hua heard this.
At the same time, I am happy that my daughter is capable and can bring back game every now and then to supplement the family income.
On the other side, there was also some complaint in his heart: "This damn girl, every mouthful is like an uncle, she screams quite happily."
"Girl Rou, isn't she young?"
Zhang Heng sat in the yard, huddled on a chair.
"You're not young anymore. You'll be sixteen during the Chinese New Year."
Hua's mother said with a look of embarrassment on her face: "I've had several dates with her this year, but none of them were successful. One of them was even scared away."
Hua Rou had smallpox when she was a child.
Although the smallpox was cured, the face was pockmarked.
In addition, the Hua family is not a wealthy family and cannot afford many gifts, so the wedding will be delayed.
Otherwise, if she was left in the countryside, she would be betrothed at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
"It's not too small."
Zhang Heng replied and began to fall asleep again.
certainly.
He was not really sleeping, but was preaching in his dream.
Just saying that.
This girl Hua Rou is indeed a little weird.
When nothing happens, I like to watch him from the sidelines.
His eyes glowed green.
For those who didn’t know, I thought it was a cat demon.
Just saying something.
This child is a filial child, but it is a pity that he was born ugly.
Looking at her, Zhang Heng didn't want to eat, even though he didn't need to eat.
"Lets see."
Zhang Heng is an immortal.
If you live ten thousand years, you are not in a hurry to do things.
So he decided to test the Hua family for a few more months and wait until next spring.
Although he also knows.
An old relative who had not moved around for many years came to seek refuge.
It's delicious, lazy, and sloppy, and any normal person would find it disgusting.
But he has to test it.
It's not whether the Hua family dislikes him or not, but whether they will drive him away in the cold winter months.
Dislike is instinct, driving away is choice.
If they can hold on to the last trace of kindness and tolerate him for a few months without driving him away, they will be considered to have passed this test.
If you don't even have this kind of kindness.
For example, Hua Laoda and Hua Lao Er.
It means that they are not qualified to inherit the Fengling Sect's orthodoxy, so they should just be mortals.
A few more days.
The snow has stopped and the weather has warmed up a bit.
Hua Rou started going out early in the morning again and stayed there for the whole day.
Every time she comes back, she brings back various harvests.
Zhang Heng found that she knew a lot.
Can make bows and arrows and animal traps by himself.
She can catch rabbits, deer, roe deer, and all kinds of small animals.
He can also cut through the ice and catch fish from the frozen river.
She can identify mushrooms, medicinal materials, and find wild vegetables, and her cooking skills are also good. Her cooking skills are much better than Hua's mother.
These are all craftsmanship.
It's a big deal for an ordinary country boy to know the same thing.
The rich and powerful dare not say that they will never starve to death if they live on the mountain.
Hua Rou knows many things, she is really a treasure girl.
