I am a late bloomer in the world of immortality

Not long after.

Li Yaozu and his wife and Wei Tu, a foreign guest, also sat on the stools at the dining table.

"Brother Wei..."

Li Xingye took the lead in greeting Wei Tu. He did not call Wei Tu "Brother Wei", but "Brother Wei".

And there was no trace of arrogance on his face.

Humble, calm.

The hospitality etiquette is very good.

Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly had a better impression of Li Xingye. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart - no wonder the county gentry flocked to Li Xingye's house to marry the Li family after learning about Li Xingye's county examination results.

If he is treated like this, Li Xingye will definitely be gentle, polite and elegant when talking to those Jin gentry.

"I don't go home much. I have been studying in the government school, and I don't see Brother Wei that often. I never thought that Brother Wei would still have great ambitions even though he is living in a lowly household..."

"After I heard Dad tell this anecdote, I also admired Brother Wei."

Li Xingye smiled, raised his hand and pointed his fingers together as he spoke, and bowed to Wei Tuxu at the table.

"Brother Wei will definitely shine in this county examination with his martial arts skills. When the time comes..., you and I will go to Fucheng together so that we can take care of you..."

he said sincerely.

Upon hearing Li Xingye's request, Wei Tu looked slightly stagnant, not knowing what to say and feeling a little embarrassed.

Except for Shan Yangong, he had never interacted with any Confucian scholar in this world. It was difficult for him to tell whether Li Xingye's enthusiasm was just right or too much.

It would be good if he could go with Li Xingye to Fucheng, but he didn't want to bear any more "care" from the Li family.

If he wasn't short of money this time and Xinghua was in Li's house again..., he didn't really want to knock on the door of Li's house.

"Master's eldest son has a school in Fucheng and his house is spacious..."

"When I left the Shan family, Brother Yan Gong asked me to stay at his place when I went to take the imperial examination, so that I wouldn't bother Brother Xingye anymore."

Wei Tu thought for a moment, shook his head, and said arrogantly.

The words fell.

The smile on Li Xingye's face froze slightly, and it didn't relax until he heard what Li Yaozu said later.

Li Yaozu heard this and said: "Shan Xiucai has been living in Fucheng for a long time. Brother Wei leaves the Shan family. With Shan Xiucai's character, he will definitely let Brother Wei stay at his place..."

"I was reckless."

"I hope Brother Wei won't be offended."

Li Xingye didn't know whether his father's words were to give him a way out, or if he was telling the truth, but he didn't show any concern about the matter during the dinner.

After the food is served on the table.

Several people in the restaurant were silent and adhered to the etiquette of "no words when eating and no words when sleeping".

…

After dinner at home.

Wei Tu didn't hesitate to stay in the inner house for a long time. After cupping his fists and saluting, he left the inner house under the leadership of his maid Chunlan.

When he was about to walk out of the inner house, Wei Tu seemed to hear something. He paused slightly and looked up at the straight and towering ancient cypress planted deep in the inner house.

The courtyard wall covered the trunk of the ancient cypress, but its lush branches and leaves overcame the corrugations and popped up, swaying slightly in the moonlight.

Wei Tu shook his head, then a relieved and relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he stepped out of the courtyard gate.

After successfully practicing health-preserving skills, his ears and eyesight were sharp, and his hearing was far beyond that of ordinary people.

Otherwise, when I went back to my hometown to visit relatives, I would not have discovered that Zheng Guo officers and soldiers were massacring Baiyang County swordsmen outside the inn at night.

Wei Tu heard this, and Gubai in the inner house was kicked, hard.

According to his guess, the origin of this kick was probably the humble and polite Li Xingye just now.

"Father Zixiao..."

"This is true."

Wei Tu thought.

…

Arrive at the front house of Li's house.

In the main room where Wei Tu lived half a year ago, he saw Xinghua standing in front of the door with a light.

"Brother Wei..."

"You, you are back..."

Seeing Wei Tu, Xinghua was not excited and stepped forward to hug the man she had known since childhood. She raised her feet and then retreated.

She moved her gaze downwards, seemingly through the purple woolen jacket, and saw Wei Tu's shirtless upper body.

After more than half a year, Xinghua could see that Wei Tu's chest muscles were firmer, a little bigger than when he left home, and his waistline was also wider. The stitches he had sewn had been taken apart and repeated, and the stitches were more precise... …

familiar.

And unfamiliar.

Especially Wei Tu's aura of vigorous martial arts is breathtaking.

After most people see it, they will be afraid for a third of time and will stay aside.

When he speaks, he can't help but be a little more kind and use words more modestly.

Xinghua was sure that she was also afraid of Wei Tu's aura. After all, she was a weak woman who had never seen a maid in a wealthy family.

Wei Tu stopped in the courtyard. He saw Xinghua's slight step back and the timid look in her eyes after seeing him.

"Eating in the inner house is too polite. I haven't eaten enough. Are there any baked pancakes in the house?"

"Take a few and get me bath water. I've been traveling all day."

Wei Tu ordered Xinghua in the tone of ordering a maid.

Hearing these words, Xinghua, who was standing in front of the door, felt slightly disappointed, but at the same time, she seemed to feel that she was no longer useless by Wei Tu's side.

At least she can be a rough maid, serving her husband, who is expected to take up martial arts.

To this.

Xinghua is resigned to the situation.

got used to.

She turned around and walked toward the door to find the dough that had been baked in the kitchen a quarter of an hour ago.

However.

at this time.

Wei Tu quietly walked up behind her and pinched her butt.

Xinghua's face suddenly turned red, and she turned around and glared at Wei Tu who was standing in front of her, with a look of displeasure on her face.

This time, Wei Tu pinched her butt much harder than before.

"Wash yourself and wait for me on the bed. I've been holding it in for a long time at Shan's house."

Wei Tu spoke without hesitation and said shameful words that made people blush.

"You eat first."

Xinghua stuffed the hot noodles into Wei Tu's arms, stamped her feet, and walked out of the main room, obediently running to the maids' bathroom to take a shower.

"Probably..."

"This is Xinghua's timidity about being close to home..."

Wei Tu looked at Xinghua's leaving figure, shook his head, and thought.

After all, he was different from Xinghua. They had received modern education. Xinghua thought that she could not deceive his eyes with her deep thoughts.

at this time.

Xinghua is afraid of him.

What makes her timid is that she is afraid that when he becomes famous, he will no longer recognize her as a poor wife.

Less than half an hour later.

Xinghua walked into the main room. She deliberately shrank her head and buried her neck, which was red from the soap, so that Wei Tu would not see her.

Her worries were in vain.

Wei Tu closed the door and blew out the candles, then picked her up and threw her on the quilt.

Lean less.

Was turned into a red wave.

The bed swayed.

Late at night, the two of them half woke up from exhaustion and hugged each other tightly, no longer feeling unfamiliar from a few hours ago.

"Brother Wei..."

Xinghua opened her eyes, kissed Wei Tu on the forehead, and continued to sleep contentedly.
