Chapter 21 One Leaf Bamboo Chan

Although Wen Zhaodi’s cooking skills are not superb, they are still excellent. The slow-cooked old hen meat is crispy and not greasy, and the color, aroma and flavor are all mouth-watering.

In addition to the stewed old hen, the woman also simply fried two vegetarian vegetables.

Stir-fried bean sprouts and vegetarian stir-fried vegetables.

The taste is light and delicious.

Although the life is simple and simple, there is a unique atmosphere of fireworks everywhere.

Lu Renjia picked up his favorite chicken butt and praised in a sour tone: "They say that to marry a wife, you need to be able to go to the hall and the kitchen. I don't know how lucky Lao Zhang has been in these few lives." How many points can I get?"

Zhang Yunwu scratched his head and smiled innocently.

Listening to Master Jia's praise, Wen Zhaodi's face covered with red clouds, she was quite embarrassed and said softly: "As capable as Brother Lu, the wife he will find in the future will definitely be several times better than Zhaodi."

“That’s right, that’s right.”

Zhang Yunwu echoed, "Brother Lu must marry a better wife than Zhao Di."

How can this boy talk?

Jiang Shouzhong was speechless and kicked Dashaniu under the table.

Zhang Yunwu was stunned, looked up at Jiang Shouzhong, and asked in confusion: "Brother Jiang, why are you kicking me?"

"It's okay, let's eat your meat."

Jiang Shouzhong was too lazy to enlighten this elm-headed man.

Wen Zhaodi covered her mouth and smiled, then thought of something again. She stared at Jiang Shouzhong with her beautiful eyes, and then at her honest and foolish husband. Her eyes were lowered, covering a ray of sadness.

"What a pity. Although my Mr. A is not bad in appearance, his popularity with women is not as good as that of Xiao Jiang."

Lu Renjia took a bite of the chicken butt and said vaguely, 
"It's a good thing that this boy is not that kind of playboy, otherwise it would be hard to say how many love debts he would have incurred. This time I found a girl from Yuming Street for him, but this boy didn't even look at her."

Jiang Shouzhong knew that this guy said it deliberately so that Wen Zhaodi could also persuade him to go on a blind date. He said with some displeasure: "I can't even stop your mouth? If you like being a matchmaker so much, why not change your career to be a matchmaker?"
 "I will definitely become a matchmaker when Master Jia can no longer survive."

Lu Renjia smacked his lips.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Wen Zhaodi hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

"The girl from Yuming Street that Brother Lu is talking about is probably the one from the Feng family. Although that girl is good, she seems a bit reluctant to match Brother Jiang."

Wen Zhaodi paused for a moment, and then said:

"From my perspective, an outstanding man like Brother Jiang will definitely shine in the future, and his future is immeasurable. Even if you want to find one, you have to find it in the world. The most beautiful woman should be my wife.”

[I want to find the most beautiful woman in the world as my wife...]

The woman’s familiar but distant words made Jiang Shouzhong feel dazed for a moment.

Memories are like catkins, floating to that autumn day a year ago...

...

"My Shou Zhong is the best man in the world. I want to find the most beautiful woman in the world as my wife..."

The curtains are gently rolled in the wind, and I am sitting there. The gentle beauty in front of the desk rested her forehead with her hands and stared at the misty rainy scene outside the window. Her voice was so soft that it seemed as if it was floating in the rain.

"Sister Ye is the most beautiful woman in the world."

The man spoke softly.

His injuries have basically healed.

A year ago, when he first came to this strange world, he almost died in that swamp.

If the woman in front of me had not appeared in time, I would have died long ago.

So in Jiang Shouzhong's eyes, the woman who rescued him from hell and took good care of him for a year, treating him as a younger brother, is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman in the world.

“My sister is very ugly and not worthy of my family.”

Ye Zhuchan turned her head, with a self-deprecating smile on her beautiful side face that was slightly transparent like mutton-fat jade.

Looking only at the left side of the face, the woman is undoubtedly a stunning beauty.

But when she turned the other cheek.

The terrifying scar that looks like a centipede is particularly horrifying.

Every time I see Jiang Shou, his heart feels like needles pricking him.

It was supposed to be a perfect piece of art, but it was maliciously damaged, and we don't know who did it.

He asked several times about the origin of the scars, but the woman remained silent.

Jiang Shouzhong put his hands behind his head, threw up a grape and opened his mouth to catch it, with a joking expression on his handsome face:

"Then I will be a bachelor for the rest of my life. If you want me, Sister Ye will take pity on me and marry me. And I will not leave this village and stay with Sister Ye all the time."

Ye Zhuchan showed her teeth.

Then she remembered something again, her expression was melancholy, and her dim eyes dropped to the ground.

After a moment, she pursed her lips softly and murmured:

“No, Sister Ye...is really not worthy of you.”

Rain and mist in front of the eaves. Thin smoke enveloped the woman's delicate body in a blur of dreams.

Just like a curtain of dreams.

...

"Pa!"

The palm that suddenly fell on his shoulder pulled Jiang Shouzhong back from his past thoughts. Sister Ye's beautiful image disappeared like clouds of smoke in my mind.

Lu Renjia ignored the greasiness on his hands, put his arm around Jiang Shouzhong's shoulders and said:

"Xiao Jiang, Mr. A, I don't have the brainpower as you do, but I really hope you can get married and start a business as soon as possible. Don't be like Mr. A, who spends his whole life trying to find a wife, and it's hard to find a wife.

This It’s really hard to live without a woman at home.

No one warms the bed, no one washes clothes, no one cooks, and no one talks to me... It’s quite uncomfortable sometimes when I think about it.
Let’s just leave it at that. How about taking some time to see the girl from the Feng family tomorrow?”

Jiang Shouzhong said seriously: “Master Jia, if you don’t have a wife, you can go to Chunyu Tower. For fun, you can drink whatever you want, do whatever you want, no one will care about you, no one will quarrel with you

No one at home will throw bowls and dishes, your mother-in-law will not bury you all day long, and your children will not call Uncle Wang next door daddy..."

"Okay, okay, Master A, I can't talk to you. "

Lu Renjia felt dizzy when he heard this, and waved his hands repeatedly, "Forget it if you don't go. At worst, I will return the one or two pieces of silver to others. ”

Master Jia still has a very contractual spirit.

Since you can’t get things done, you can’t take money from others in vain.

Jiang Shouzhong was not going to stop talking and continued:

"To tell you the truth, even if I reach your age, there will be many women vying for me. Do you believe it?"

"Ah!"

Lu Renjia wanted to mock him.

But looking at the other party's face, which was as beautiful as a jade, and the rich and handsome cheeks, he lowered his head and continued eating meat, not wanting to argue.

There's nothing wrong with being handsome, women look for inner beauty.

“And——”

Jiang Shouzhong said seriously, “I have a wife.”

“Ah, yes, yes, you have a wife.” Lu Renjia sneered. , "Your wife is a fairy in the sky. Is it right to come down to earth to meet you once a year?"

"My wife is Ran Qingchen."

"..."

The room suddenly became quiet.

A few seconds later, Lu Renjia burst out laughing, and brought a plate of bean sprouts to Jiang Shouzhong, "Xiao Jiang, don't just drink, eat more vegetables, eat more bean sprouts..." 
On the other hand, Zhang Yunwu's eyes widened, "Brother Jiang, is this true?"

Wen Zhaodi patted her husband's arm helplessly, "Brother Jiang is joking with us."

Zhang Yunwu said oh, scratched his head and giggled.

Jiang Shouzhong sighed helplessly.

No one believes the truth.

......

It was almost Haishi when Jiang Shouzhong returned home, smelling of alcohol.

Although he was very tired, Jiang Shouzhong didn't feel much sleepy.

When I was bored, I simply dug out the "Tian Yuan River Atlas" given by Zhang Lang and read it, trying to use it to help me sleep.

This book on self-cultivation contains nothing more than some great principles.

Speeches such as "Extending righteousness and observing the true mind", "Bathing the body and bathing in virtue, cleansing the mind and reforming worries", "The state of mind is clear, all things are inseparable, and self-cultivation is in nature".

Reading it in your spare time can calm your mind.

The book is not thick, only sixteen pages.

Jiang Shouzhong scribbled through it and read it again. After reading it twice in a row, I still couldn't close my eyes, so I turned it over from back to front, chanting word by word.

Just like that, back and forth, sleep finally came late.

Jiang Shouzhong fell asleep holding the book in his hand.

Not long after he fell asleep, a blood-red cold breath suddenly flowed out of the man.

Like a hungry wolf that smelled the fishy smell, it crawled into the book.

Page after page of the ancient book quickly opened.

The words printed on the books seemed to have become living creatures, constantly twisting and squirming. In the end, he broke away from the book and turned into a crystal clear little person.

The villain is surrounded by a string of small golden ancient seal characters:

[Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature! 】

——

The cold moon hangs high, and the cold wind cuts to the bones.

The big man in black clothes who came out of Chunyu Tower burped in wine and walked slowly on the lonely street.

This Nalan Xie's follower and bodyguard tapped the scabbard with his fingers, squinted his eyes, and said to himself: "Should I break that kid's left leg or his right leg?" 
Thanks to Ji Feng Qi Jing Hong for the reward
