The summer is hot and the heat is very hot.

Chen Guhong and Ma Zhong and his wife walked along the stream to the west hill. They reached the foot of the mountain, crossed the wooden bridge to the north, and then went up the mountain from the mountain road.

The mountain road was narrow and steep, and Ma Zhong took out the hatchet behind him and opened the way forward. Ma Zhong's wife followed behind him, while Chen Guhong walked at the end.

"Young Master Chen, be careful." Ma Zhong's wife turned around and said to Chen Guhong with great care.

"Okay." Chen Guhong nodded. In fact, he is strong and it is easy to walk in front of the mountain. However, facing the strange man Ma Zhong, it is better to be low-key.

Walking along the mountain road, the group soon arrived at a place full of bayberry trees. At this moment, the trees were covered with bayberry trees, which were not yet mature, but also spectacular.

And under the bayberry trees are full of weeds.

After coming here, Ma Zhong picked up the hoe and bent down to remove the weeds. Ma Zhong's wife smiled at Chen Guhong and said, "I have ten bayberry trees in my family. My wife's purpose is to ask the young master to help weed. But it's okay for her to do whatever she wants, so there is no need to work too much." As she said that, Ma Zhong's wife also started weeding.

"I'm free to eat and live for three days at his house. Now I'm here to weed. A weird guy is a weird guy." Chen Guhong looked around, breathed out in his heart, chose a bayberry tree to weed under the tree.

The hoe waved and fell down, and every time the grass chips and mud flew up.

Chen Guhong was strong and very skilled in carrying a hoe. He was quick to move and weeding faster than Ma Zhong. This surprised Ma Zhong's wife, even Ma Zhong's dead face changed slightly.

Chen Guhong felt a little happy when he saw this.

"You dead face, calling me to go up the mountain to weed, which made me confused. But no matter what the purpose is, I, Chen Guhong, are not really weak."

Thinking of this, Chen Guhong's movements became more and more tempting. Before noon, the weeds under the ten-pearl bayberry trees were removed. Chen Guhong's results were more than half.

"I've asked Mr. Chen to have a blessing. I can rush back to have lunch at noon." Ma Zhong's wife looked at the sky and said with a smile.

"You're welcome." Chen Guhong said with a smile.

Immediately, the three of them cleaned up together and went down the mountain. After lunch, Chen Guhong followed Ma Zhong's wife to the field to weed the vegetable field.

This time, Ma Nong and Ma Geng and his two little brothers also followed.

The little brothers were holding bamboo baskets, blushing and very excited. When they came to the field, the mannong pulled Chen Guhong's sleeve and begged: "Uncle, uncle, help us catch the snails."

"The snails are delicious." Ma Geng nodded and said.

At this moment, Ma Zhong and his wife were busy in the vegetable field. Chen Guhong looked at it, but didn't ask, and smiled at Ma Nong casually, "Okay."

“Great.”

The little brother smiled and went to the rice fields next to him to catch snails.

There are large and small snails. Chen Guhong and his younger brothers specialize in picking the average size. The big ones are hard to eat, while the small ones are not easy to eat. The medium-sized ones are just right.

There were many snails in the fields, and soon three people caught enough snails with two plates.

"I'll have snails to eat at noon." The little brother smiled happily and applauded.

Chen Guhong looked at the innocent smile of his little brother, then looked at the snails in the bamboo basket, and was in a surprisingly happy mood, and smiled and said, "What a dish to serve."

Not long after, the two little brothers left together. Looking at the little brother's back as they left, Chen Guhong returned to Caitian and helped Ma Zhong and his wife continue to do farm work.

When I had life on my hands, time was fast. Soon, the sun set and it was almost evening. Ma Zhong and his wife picked up the hoe, greeted Chen Guhong and went home together.

There were two tables in the evening, including Ma Zhong’s wife, Ma Ma, and little brother. Ma Zhong, Lao Ma and Chen Guhong. There was a large plate of fried snails on the three tables, plus some wine dishes.

A jar of rice wine.

The yellow wine under the snails is so cool!

Three more days passed, during these three days, Chen Guhong was particularly fulfilling, idle clouds and wild cranes, and farmer in the fields. The feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle and having fun became more and more intense.

So much so that he almost forgot the county examination, but he had his own pursuits and hatreds. He almost forgot, but still couldn't.

The first three days and the next three days, the total was six days. As the county examination became closer, Chen Guhong's heart became a little anxious.

Fortunately, the situation changed a little more this day.

On this day, Ma Zhong and his wife did not go to the fields to work, so Ma Zhong sat under the tree, leaning against the pine tree and reading books. This was the first time Chen Guhong saw Ma Zhong read books, which was very novel.

Ma Zhong raised his head and looked at Chen Guhong. His face was still dead. He asked, "How about this period?"

"Full." Chen Guhong answered honestly and sat down beside Ma Zhong.

"It is not only fulfilling, but also fun, and can live long and be at ease." Ma Zhong said, and a little joyful and satisfying appeared on the dead man's face.

Chen Guhong looked at Ma Zhong's expression and thought of Ma Zhong's life again. He felt a little resonant and a little bit of a sudden.

At this time, Ma Zhong put down the book and said, "There are many conspiracies in the world. Although fame and fortune are good, they are even more dirty. Today I plan to plot against you, tomorrow I plan to plot against you. My friends will turn against you tomorrow, today the enemy will join the alliance. Everyone has a mask. The high-ranking officials in the temple seem to be smart, but in fact they are ridiculous and ridiculous, and they will have a long life."

"So, I studied and thought I was rich in talent, but I sought fame and excused the family's labor service. What do you think?"

Ma Zhong asked.

"The joy of idle clouds and wild cranes is difficult for ordinary people to know." Chen Guhong replied. At this moment, Chen Guhong knew that Ma Zhong was a hermit among scholars.

He is very talented, but he is willing to be comfortable.

Compared with the smart people in the temple, who is smarter and who is cunning is mysterious.

As Tang Bohu said in the song of the Peach Blossom Temple, "He has to drive me and I have time to spare."

Ma Zhong raised his mouth slightly, as if he was smiling. Then he looked up and asked Chen Guhong, "I have many people. As soon as I see you, I know that you are leisurely. These days I have let you have enough leisure and taste the taste of a farmer. Do you still want to seek fame and fortune?"

"I have something to ask for, but it's hard to settle down." Chen Guhong also said seriously.

"What do you want?" Ma Zhong asked.

"Immortal!" Chen Guhong said.

"Immortal?" Ma Zhong laughed and felt absurd and unruly. He said, "Is there any immortal in this world still unknown? What you ask for is too ethereal."

"I know there is." Chen Guhong said.

"Really?" Ma Zhong said in surprise without thinking that Chen Guhong was a lying person.

"It's really." Chen Guhong nodded.

"Okay." Ma Zhong shook his head, got up and patted his butt, and said, "Then I will write you a guarantee document."

"Have a moment." Chen Guhong called out to Ma Zhong.

"What's wrong?" Ma Zhong turned around and asked.

"Brother Ma knows the grudge between me and Wu Xiude?" Chen Guhong asked.

Ma Zhong laughed and said, "I am also a scholar. What can the Wu family do to me? Besides, I am a mountain village man, without desire or demand. If you have no desire, you will be strong. If you let his blade be sharp, how can you destroy me?"

"I want to laugh at him, and those scholars who have not been guaranteed for you and do not make friends with you. They read Yan Zi's way of benevolence, forgiveness and etiquette, but they are just the stinky stinking of fame and fortune. They disdain it, disdain it."
