Chapter 22 Moving
“What?”
When Zhang’s mother learned that Zhang Yuan, who had just returned, had bought a house and settled in the county town, she couldn’t believe her ears.
Although Zhang Yuan said it before.
She agreed.
But I never expected Zhang Yuan to move so fast!
Mother Zhang couldn't help but ask: "Where did you get the money?"
Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Yesterday I picked a rock ginseng in the mountains and took it to the county this morning. The drug store sold it for more than a hundred taels."
He didn't tell his mother about this, holding back to give her a big surprise.
Mother Zhang was both happy and angry: "You kid!"
Zhang Yuan secretly completed such a big thing as buying a house and settling in it alone.
She couldn't help but reached out and touched her son's face: "Yuaner, you have really grown up!"
Originally, Zhang's mother called Zhang Yuan "Yuanwa'er" , now the word "baby" is missing, and the meaning is self-explanatory.
"Of course."
Zhang Yuan said proudly: "Mom, from now on you and your child can enjoy happiness together in the county town!"
Mother Zhang smiled and wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and gave him a gentle push: "Go and burn incense for Daddy, and let him keep you safe and sound."
"Yes."
Zhang Yuan went to offer incense to Mr. Zhang as he was told.
The Zhang family is an outsider. After a family member dies, the memorial tablet cannot be entered into the ancestral hall in Chenjia Village.
So it can only be worshiped at home.
In fact, Zhang Yuan had no impression of his late father. After all, the latter died too young.
He lived in confusion until he was ten years old. It was not until he slowly awakened the memories of his past life that the gears of fate began to turn!
In the evening, Zhang Yuan boiled another jar of medicinal liquid and took a medicinal bath for himself.
[Host: Zhang Yuan]
[Realm: First Level (Ming Jin)]
[God's Nest: Level 1 (30%)]
[Host: Level 2 Black Giant Ant (18%)/4 times the power]
[Host: Level 1 Jasper Mantis ( 38%)/Basic sword skill mastery]
[Qi and blood: 106/106]
[Essence: 0]
He had already fed all the source matter obtained from previous sacrifices to the Jade Mantis, raising the latter's evolution level to nearly 40%.
But Zhang Yuan still felt a little slow.
And if you want to speed up the upgrade of the second body, you need to invest more source matter.
Essence!
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
After changing his clothes, he quietly came to the small courtyard outside and began to practice the rock pile technique to consume his excessive energy and blood.
Whether you soak in a medicinal bath or practice this basic skill, you can increase the upper limit of your qi and blood value.
Although the current effect is far from as good as the first time, after repeated efforts, every step of the way, and through unremitting accumulation little by little on weekdays, the time will inevitably come when quantitative changes will turn into qualitative changes!
Zhang Yuan calmed down and completely immersed himself in cultivation.
Sweat soaked his clothes and dripped on the ground.
The long night is long, and another day has passed.
The next morning, after breakfast, Zhang Yuan carried his prepared luggage and headed to the county town with his mother and Dahu.
He felt that Chenjia Village had a tendency to become a place of right and wrong, so he did not hesitate to borrow high interest to buy a house and settle there.
Now that I have settled in the city, of course I have to leave early to avoid any accidents.
Actually, Mother Zhang was somewhat reluctant to give up.
After all, she has lived in Chenjiacun for nearly twenty years, and her neighbors are all familiar with her.
The county seat is an unfamiliar place. On the way, we met several villagers who were going to work in the fields. Everyone couldn't help but be curious about Zhang Yuan's mother and son, who were carrying large and small bags.
Someone asked: "Sister-in-law of the Zhang family, where are you going?"
Mother Zhang smiled and said: "My child and I are going to visit relatives, and we may have to go there. I came back after living out of town for a while.”
Zhang Yuan told her not to tell anyone about buying a house and settling in the city.
There are haters but there are laughers. There has never been a village with truly honest folk customs. Even if most people are good, there are still a few narrow-minded, jealous and jealous people who cannot stand it.
Now that Chenjiacun is in troubled times, there is no need to publicize it!
The villagers suddenly said: "So that's it."
Although Zhang's mother has not been seen visiting relatives in other places for more than ten years.
The problem is that visiting relatives is so normal that it’s not worth making a fuss about.
Farewell to the villagers, Zhang Yuan and Zhang's mother continued to move forward, gradually leaving the mountain village behind.
After exiting the rugged mountain road, Zhang Yuan asked his panting mother to rest on the side of the road.
After waiting for half an hour, we saw a passing ox cart heading to the county seat.
He talked to the uncle who drove the cart, then paid five copper coins, took the ox cart and rushed to the county seat.
It was already noon when we arrived at Fish Selling Lane.
When Zhang Yuan unlocked the door with the key, he took his mother into the new home.
Mother Zhang was shocked: "Such a nice house!"
In fact, this small house is very ordinary in the county town, and there is no way to compare it with the residences of wealthy families.
Compared to the earthen huts and thatched houses in Chenjiacun, it is a completely different world!
Zhang's mother was surprised and delighted. She walked around the main room, the wing, the guest room and the kitchen.
She was so happy that the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes stretched out, as if she was several years younger.
Mother Zhang is not very old to begin with. Recently, she has been eating well and drinking tonics. Her severely deficient body has been replenished, and her condition has improved greatly.
Only better now.
Looking at his mother's happy appearance, Zhang Yuan also felt sincere joy.
All his hard work was worth it!
The mother and son worked together to clean the courtyard and several rooms.
Give this home a brand new look.
While the two were busy, Dahu secretly peed in the corner and then ran around excitedly.
It doesn’t matter if you live in a dilapidated house or a new house.
As long as you can stay with a master like Zhang Yuan, it will be a paradise of happiness.
Since the original landlord left a lot of furniture, Zhang Yuan did not purchase any more.
He also brought pots, pans, rice, oil, salt, sauce, bacon and other daily necessities and food.
As night fell, a fire was lit on the kitchen stove, and soon the aroma of rice and steamed meat spread.
It made Dahu, who was lying in the yard, drool.
Zhang Yuan and his mother's first meal in their new home in the county town was very simple, but it was extremely warm and satisfying!
Even Dahu got a big pot of bacon mixed with rice.
"Such a life, I never dared to think about it before!"
Mother Zhang was very emotional and suddenly said: "Yuan'er, now we have a house in the county town, and you have settled down. , it’s time to find a suitable marriage for you.”
“When you get married and have a baby, my mother will really feel at ease!”
Zhang Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said quickly: "Mother, I'm still young, let's talk about this later."
"Don't worry, when the time comes, I will marry you eighteen beautiful wives, and then Give you eighty grandchildren, let them each God greets you and calls you grandma!”
Mother Zhang said angrily: “That’s nonsense!”
But imagine if your son could really marry so many wives and give birth to so many children. Below the knees...
It’s also very beautiful!
