Chapter 60 Just pretend! Just pretend!
Chapter 60 Just pretend! Just pretend!
A dark shadow hidden in the woods not far away was very surprised. His pupils dilated and he wondered why this kid's skills were so bad that even he couldn't catch up with him.
I just lost him for a while, but this guy seemed to have a duel. Was that a wolf howling just now? Did this guy kill a wolf in such a short time?
Jiang Youzhen walked towards the headman's house with trembling legs, and his legs were still weak!
This time, when the old man at the door saw Jiang Youzhen coming, he let her in without notifying her.
"Uncle, this is for your master and young master to try." Jiang Youzhen handed over a wild rabbit.
Last time it was a pheasant, this time it was a hare. The village head treated her well, so of course she had to maintain a good relationship with him.
I first went to pay my respects to the head of the village and told him about my plan to buy land and build a house.
"That's good! Stay away from your grandparents and suffer less. After all, they are elders. If they keep arguing, it will be bad for you if it gets out."
The head of the village agreed very much, thinking that he was right at the beginning and Erlang could indeed stand on his own.
"Which piece of land do you like? I'll bring people from the government to measure it for you tomorrow."
The head of the village didn't ask where the money came from. Since Jiang Youzhen wanted to buy land, he must have enough money.
"It's not far from your home, at the foot of the mountain. When the time comes, we can build a big wall there so that we don't have to worry about wild animals coming to disturb us."
Jiang Youzhen had already made plans. There would definitely be no room at the entrance of the village.
Moreover, the population there is densely populated and there are many secrets, so it is more convenient to live farther away.
The head of the village nodded. "That piece of land is nice and spacious. Since you want to build a yard, build a bigger one. If you don't have enough money, I can lend you some."
Jiang Youzhen quickly thanked him, "Thank you for your kindness, Grandpa Lizheng. I have enough money here. I learned some trapping skills before, caught some game, and sold it for some money. I also got some money from people who grew flowers, and it's enough to build a house."
"I didn't expect you had this ability. Have you caught any game in the past two days?" the head of the village asked with interest.
In fact, he didn't expect Jiang Youzhen to catch any prey, he just asked casually.
Jiang Youzhen thought about it and felt that if he told others that he had killed the wolf, it would be too shocking.
With her weak body, killing a wolf was too shocking. She couldn't reveal the skills given by the system, so she could only smile.
"Just some rabbits and pheasants and that sort of thing."
After saying goodbye to the village head, Jiang Youzhen went to Tong Huaian's yard.
As soon as he arrived at his yard, Jiang Youzhen slapped his forehead and realized that he had forgotten to buy some books and pens.
"Jiang Erlang didn't come yesterday, and the young master asked about it. I didn't expect you weren't at home."
It was still the same girl Huamei leading the way as last time, with a smile on her face, making people feel happy.
"I stayed in the county yesterday because of something. I didn't expect that I would have to trouble your young master to send someone to inquire about me. I'm really sorry." Jiang Youzhen said apologetically.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the little girl burst out laughing.
"You just started our young master's class, but why do I feel like you speak as elegantly as our young master?"
"Hahaha! I learned the rules in Master Wang's house. Besides, wasn't it because I studied with your young master? Your young master is very knowledgeable, and I am also very smart, so I learn faster."
Jiang Youzhen laughed, but reminded himself in his heart to be more careful next time.
Huamei laughed again, "Who would praise themselves?"
The two of them came to Tong Huaian's study while chatting and laughing. At this moment, he was sitting at the table practicing calligraphy.
"You're here. I didn't see you yesterday and thought you didn't want to study anymore."
"How is that possible? I have admired Brother Huai'an for a long time. How happy would it be to study with you? And I don't have to work at home."
Jiang Youzhen spoke cunningly, but Tong Huaian smiled slightly and looked at her.
"Admire me?" Tong Huaian smiled and looked very happy.
Jiang Youzhen gave himself a thumbs-up in his heart! It seems that he still likes to listen to nice things.
"I heard that you helped a wealthy family grow flowers yesterday and received a reward of five hundred taels of silver!"
Haha! You never leave your house, but you know about the five hundred taels. It seems like you have spies! Did you plan this so early?
"Oh! Has it spread? I'm really lucky, the owner is really generous. But I only have a little knowledge, it's just a blind cat that has found a dead mouse, I didn't expect it to be saved."
Jiang Youzhen had already sat down and started to take out his homework from the previous day.
"You are able to save the orchid, so don't be too modest. But have you heard who the family is? What's the surname of the owner? And why did they pay so much money? Even if it's a top-grade orchid, it's not that expensive."
Tong Huaian asked with pretended curiosity, but Jiang Youzhen understood what he was thinking.
Humph! I don't believe you haven't heard from your mortal enemy. Go ahead and pretend! Go ahead and pretend!
"How would I know? I just took the money. The owner was very mysterious and didn't let me ask any more questions!" Jiang Youzhen shook his head.
Jiang Youzhen then talked about his plans, counting on his fingers how he would spend the money.
Tong Huaian squinted his eyes, listened patiently, and did not interrupt.
Looking at Jiang Youzhen's confident look about the future, he decided to temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart.
"I have completed all my homework, please take a look, Brother Huai'an!"
Jiang Youzhen finally finished talking about his vision for the future, and walked up to place a piece of paper covered with large characters in front of Tong Huaian.
Tong Huaian glanced at the back of the other person's hand, then looked at Jiang Youzhen who was expecting something, and found that her face was full of expectation and praise, then he lowered his head to look at the paper in front of him.
Huh? The more he looked at it, the more surprised he was, because Jiang Youzhen's handwriting was getting better and better. If it wasn't for some of Jiang Youzhen's handwriting, he would have thought that Jiang Youzhen had someone write it for him.
"You've made rapid progress! If you show this handwriting to someone and tell them you've been practicing calligraphy for eight or nine years, they'll believe it."
"Really? Is my handwriting that good? But I think compared to yours, there is a world of difference!"
Jiang Youzhen's face was full of suspicion, "Are you kidding me?"
"I have been studying since I was five years old. I have studied hard for eleven years. If I can't write as well as a beginner like you, then I shouldn't take the exam."
Tong Huaian spoke with great confidence, but with his beautiful handwriting, he did have reason to be confident.
"Write out everything you wrote last time for me to see, and then I'll teach you the new content."
Tong Huaian put down the big characters in his hand, and Jiang Youzhen immediately went to the side to grind ink.
It’s strange to say, she had always been an impetuous person in her previous life, but she didn’t expect that she could become so quiet in this life.
Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood! The same is true for practicing calligraphy. Grinding the ink is very important and cannot be rushed.
Tong Huaian looked at Jiang Youzhen who suddenly became serious, and suddenly felt that this boy was still somewhat decent.
His eyes fell on the way Jiang Youzhen was grinding ink, and his eyebrows raised. Was it a talent, or did he already know this?
Jiang Youzhen seemed to be immersed in grinding ink, and his every move was surprisingly elegant.
Feeling the smoothness of the ink, Jiang Youzhen then pressed the paper with a paperweight and made the first stroke.
