The night is deep and the moon is melting.

Oh... the big rooster at the entrance of the village started crowing.

The diligent family in Qingniu Village has already started a busy day early.

Even in this peaceful and peaceful era, life in a farmhouse is still difficult.

Farmers do not raise idle people, and even children must do things within their ability.

A sound of dressing sounds sounded from the dark wooden house.

In a side room in a farmhouse courtyard, Ah Dai, who was only five years old, also came out of the quilt and wiped the black clothes on him.

Ah Dai's family's surname is Xue, and the single name is "Peng".

Anyone can get a name, but not everyone can get a good name like Xue Peng.

The villagers believe that luck and destiny are real, and believe that a good reputation can change a person's destiny.

So for a good reputation, A Dai's father Xue Bingfu went up the mountain to catch two pheasants and three mountain rabbits, carrying a jar of good wine, and carrying A Dai's birth date. He walked more than ten miles of mountain roads and asked for it from a big man in the town.

It is said that the big man refused to give him a name at first, so Xue's father knelt in front of the house for two days.

Perhaps the big man was tired of watching him, so in order to drive Xue's father away, he gave him a "peng", which means that one day it would soar into the sky like a big roc.

When he returned home, Xue's father, who was like a silly man, raised his head in front of Xue's mother and said, "I planned to kneel for half a month, but I didn't expect that after only two days, I asked for a great reputation!"

When Xue’s father said this, it seemed like he had obtained a good advantage. Xue’s mother felt angry and funny when she heard it, but she felt more distressed.

In everyone's mouth, there is a reason why the name Xue Peng, or Peng'er, or Xiaopeng, is not called Ah Dai.

It is not easy to support children in the village. The older generation in the village said that children should have a bad reputation and a low reputation, so that they can withstand the beatings and beatings to support them.

Nicknames such as stone, dog supreme, gouwa, goudan, and Xiaocao are all necessary in every village, and Qingniu Village has all these names.

Originally, the elders in the family named A Dai a dog, but they were snatched away by Wang Laoqi. For a moment, the elders couldn't think of any good name.

At that time, Ah Dai was staring at the sky blankly, and someone said that he would call him stupid.

But somehow, the idiot became a idiot over time.

Although Ah Dai looked dazed, she was actually very smart and was one of the smart kids in Qingniu Village.

After putting on his clothes, Ah Dai said in a silence: "Mom, I'll go burn the fire."

Burning fire is one of the two things that Ah Dai likes most every day, because someone else's fire is burning firewood, while theirs burns a stone.

When Ah Dai met him for the first time, he found it very interesting, so he pestered Xue's mother to burn the fire every day. Finally, when he was just five years old, Xue's mother agreed to his request.

Since then, Ah Dai has fallen in love with burning fire and watching his mother and aunts cook.

"You little bastard, how old are you, you know all day long, and you can have a chance to spend time in the kitchen when you grow up."

Xue's mother wanted to curse a few more words, but Ah Dai had already got off the ground. She squeaked, and the wooden door opened, and Ah Dai ran out.

The cold food has just passed, and there is still a hint of chill left in the spring breeze.

Ah Dae urinated beside the wall, trotted all the way, and the cold wind was poured into his crotch-opener pants, which was cool.

Ah Dai shivered and looked down at the place where the crotch was opened.

After pulling Liangliang's lower body, A Dai thought to himself that he didn't want to wear open-crotch pants anymore, so how should he tell his mother?

When the thought emerged, Ah Dai had already run to the kitchen.

The Xue family’s stove is different from other families. The stoves of other families are made of mud bricks, while theirs are smooth white stones one meter square, with more than a dozen circles of red patterns engraved on them. The center of the vortex is a round groove the size of a fist.

Ah Dai wiped the bluestone stove, especially those patterns, and then carefully took out a box from the cabinet next to the stove and took out two items from it.

A small bottle, a grayish-white stone the size of a thumb belly.

Ah Dai poured out drops of green liquid from the bottle, and he counted carefully, one drop, two drops... five drops.

When the five drops are counted, Ah Dai put away the bottle, cap it, and carefully put the white stone into the groove.

The next moment, the red patterns on the stove began to glow, followed by a red flame, and the kitchen suddenly became warm and bright.

A Dai smiled. This thing was so interesting, much more fun than catching fish with Ergouzi and others.

"Ah Dai, I came to burn the fire so early today!"

Ah Dai turned around and saw a woman coming in, and smiled blankly: "Aunt Si, Aunt Si looks so good today!"

"The little mouth is still so sweet." The woman pinched Ah Dai's chubby little face.

The Xue family lived in the same courtyard.

The old man and his wife lived in the main room with the unmarried third child. A Dai family of four lives in the left side room, the eldest family of three lives in the right side room, and Lao Geda family of four lives in the front room, with a total of fourteen people.

The family is not separated, so they eat and drink together. Every morning, three wives are busy with food for the whole family, while men go to the fields to work.

"Xue Bingfu, you don't know how to manage it."

The left side room Xue's mother said angrily, and Xue's father just smiled.

"Smile, you will know that you are smirking. I will tell you that Ah Dai is already five years old this year. If Ah Dai is older, he will miss the best time to cultivate immortality. During the meal, please tell your mother that our family's income this year is quite good, and I think it can help Ah Dai start practicing immortality too."

"I'm also for your Xue family's good. Ah Dai is very smart. If he is willing to work hard, he will definitely succeed. If Ah Dai really becomes an immortal, your Xue family will be able to benefit from it."

Seeing that Xue's father didn't say anything, Xue's mother shouted angrily again.

"I'm talking to you, have you heard?"

"Whoever practices immortality at home can make a decision?" Xue's father's voice also slowly rang.

"You... why did I marry such a fool like you? I don't care. The third brother is so old that he has not cultivated anything and is still practicing. My son is so smart, why can't my son practice? Everything is inferior, but only the cultivation of immortals. Xue Bingfu, let me tell you, no matter what, my son must practice immortals this year, and he must not stay in the mountains and valleys for the rest of his life!" Xue's mother put on her clothes and walked towards the kitchen.

Xue's father sighed softly, put on a bag of cigarettes and started to smoke. As a father, why didn't he want Ah Dai to cultivate immortality?

If Ah Dai becomes an immortal, then he will be the best man. He will no longer have to pay rent for his land at home. There will be a silver subsidy in the court every year. Even if the county magistrate sees him, he will have to call him immortal obediently.

It can be said that as long as the family produces an immortal, the fate of the family will be completely changed, and they will no longer have to work hard to the loess and the sky.

But immortals are not that easy to cultivate.

If you want to cultivate immortality, you have to go through layers of selection. First, there are the county court examinations, the county provincial examinations, and the imperial examinations. Only by passing the final palace examination can you enter the immortal sect and become an immortal.

His third brother said that for the county's college entrance examination alone, thousands of people participated every year, but in the end, only a few hundred people passed, becoming a "magic talent".

When I went to the county town examination, I had thousands of talented people participating, and in the end, only a few hundred or even fewer people were able to pass the assessment and become a "featherman".

As for the imperial examination, it is even more difficult to pass the palace examination. It is tantamount to crossing a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops.

This can be seen from his third brother that he has only been a talented person after taking the exam for half his life.

It is already difficult to offer one person to cultivate immortals at home. If you offer another one, the burden will be too great.

What's more, it's for his own son, how can he say it out.

"Oh!" Xue's father sighed again.

After extinguishing the tobacco pipe, Xue's father walked out.

As soon as I went out, I saw my elder brother paced back and forth in front of my house. When I saw my father Xue coming out, Boss Xue turned around and wanted to leave.

Xue's father was puzzled and shouted: "Brother."

Boss Xue was faster when he heard the sound. Father Xue snatched up a few steps and grabbed Boss Xue: "Brother, you are here to find me, why are you still hiding when you see me?"

Boss Xue frowned with thick eyebrows, and didn't dare to look at his second brother. He lowered his head, and a big and thick man hesitated at this time: "This, how can your elder brother speak?"

"It's all a family. Brother, why do you say two families?"

"This...hey, then I'll say it. After this year, your nephew Xiaotao will be six years old and not young anymore, so your sister-in-law wants Xiaotao to practice immortality too."

"Your elder brother is useless. You can do nothing except fiddle with a few acres of land. Unlike the second brother, you can also go up the mountain to hunt and go to the city to sell. At home, among the brothers, you are very important at home, so your sister-in-law asked me to beg you, and later, she would help you say a few words to your mother during breakfast."

"Your sister-in-law said that if I can't ask you, she won't live with me. I know she's serious this time."

Speaking of this, Boss Xue's seven-foot-high man lowered his head again, and his face was flushed with shame.

Seeing his elder brother like this, Xue’s father really couldn’t bear it. He remembered what happened when he was a child.

When I was a child, one time when my brothers went into the mountains to hunt, they were knocked away by wild boars. The elder brother ran for more than ten miles of mountain roads on his back and found the doctor before he rescued him.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the elder brother's tears and snot flowing down his mind...

My elder brother saved my life. How could I bear to refuse such a request from my elder brother?

"Brother, just rest assured. I'll just say a few words for you at that time."

Hearing Xue’s father’s words, Boss Xue slowly raised his head, his eyes were red, and his voice was trembling: “Second brother, thank you.”

"It's all brothers, why are you saying thank you?" Xue's father said.

Boss Xue wiped the corners of his eyes and felt moved.

The two brothers carried hoes to the field. Boss Xue was worried about it. He wanted to do farm work and was full of strength. However, Xue's father seemed depressed and didn't know how to face his child's mother in a while.

It was almost the day before the day was coming, and it was time for breakfast. Boss Xue, father Xue and Lao Geda who rushed there later came back together.
