seek my own way

Early the next morning, the fishermen's shouts could be heard from afar on the river.Those who get up early to fish can sell their fresh catches to merchants who come to buy them in the morning market, and the prices are generally higher than those in the afternoon and evening markets.

When Shi Wu woke up, he was thirsty. He took a sip from the kettle next to him, and found that the water was still warm.I think his grandpa was afraid that he would be thirsty after waking up, so he went to the earthen stove to burn it halfway, and then he was fine.

Ah Da opened his eyes in meditation and said, "Is it better?"

Shi Wu said weakly: "Grandpa, am I dying?"

Ah Da said in a deep voice: "No nonsense!"

Shi Wu smiled and said: "Xiao Wu knows that Xiao Wu's cold illness has lasted from seven days to six days, from the onset of the morning to the sudden onset of the night. As Yang Yifan said, I am not a monk, and there is no spiritual energy in my body. This cold disease will only keep devouring my blood energy. The shorter the time, the more frequent the attack, the more it swallows."

Ah Da said helplessly: "You child, hey..."

"Xiao Wu is smart. Xiao Wu is not afraid of death. It's just that Xiao Wu still wants to see his parents, but Xiao Wu also knows that this wish is very slim. Grandpa, Brother Da Zhuang said that people live to eat Yes, at most, marry another girl I like and live a good life. But what is my life for? I used to want to go through the rivers and lakes and be a chivalrous knight, but now it seems that the rivers and lakes are not what I imagined." Shi Wu suddenly said with emotion.

Ah Da touched Shi Wu's head and said: "You will live well. Grandpa Ah's friend claims that he can be cured if he is not dead. If he can't save him, then Grandpa Ah will simply take you to the martial arts forest of Qin Kingdom. , make all the injustice."

Shi Wu smiled when he heard this, but didn't speak.

At this time, there was a sound of quarreling outside, and it was Xing Laosan and his wife on the boat next door.

Only Xing Lao San said: "Are you finished? What's wrong with Brother Bold lending a hand stove to the guests, do you have to come back now?"

His daughter-in-law said in a louder and sharper voice: "You care about Ji Bold so much, he eats and cooks every day, why don't you see him bring something for our family?"

Xing Lao San seemed to be pinching his wife, who cried out in pain, "Why are you pinching me!"

Then came the low and inaudible voice of Xing Laosan, thinking that Xing Laosan didn't want others to listen and save face for Ji Bold.

"Dong dong dong—" Ah Da's cabin door rang, and when he opened it, he saw the bitter face of "Ji Bold".He stretched out his hand and said to Shi Wu: "Come here, little Wuliang... Xiaowu, I'm going to return that hand stove to someone else."

Shi Wu heard the sound of quarreling outside, and knew that he had made "Ji Bold" embarrassing, and apologized: "I'm sorry, thank you very much."

"Oh, don't thank me, I can't bear it." "Ji Daudao" saw Ah Da's gaze, and then said, "Your Grandpa gave me a penny last night, it's too much Yes, I feel uneasy about keeping it.”

Shi Wu was still thinking about why "Ji Daudao" spoke so eccentrically today, it turned out that he was afraid that they would give him money again, so he hurriedly said: "That is also a little bit of our heart."

Ah Si under the skin of "Ji Bold" really wanted to pinch Shi Wu's neck and said, "A little bit of heart, a little bit of heart!" Jumped onto the opposite house boat.

As soon as Xing Laosan saw "Ji Boldness" coming, he knew that it was his mother-in-law's broken voice that made him hear it.

"Ji Daudao" smiled and handed the stove to Xing Laosan and said, "Third brother, thank you very much last night."

Xing Lao San apologized: "What are you doing boldly? Your sister-in-law is fast talking for a day or two. If the guests on your ship need to use it, use it first. There is no rush."

"Ji Daudao" replied: "Third brother, I've already troubled you. Besides, my guest is already ready, so there's no need for this hand stove."

The third daughter-in-law of Xing took the hand stove, looked at it carefully, and said sarcastically: "Hmph, as for his guests who paid a few pennies a night, they wanted to use it and I didn't borrow it."

Xing Lao San glared at his wife, then smiled awkwardly at "Ji Bold".

"Ji Daudao" didn't want to make things difficult for Xing Lao San, so he handed the penny that Ah Da gave last night to Xing Lao San's daughter-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, this is the one who helped the guests make a fire to keep warm yesterday, and I also borrowed your hand to make a stove." Yes. Not much, just buy some food for my niece."

Seeing that "Ji Daudao" was about to give the money to his wife, the third Xing hurriedly tried to grab it back.But his wife was faster than him, she had already snatched the money from "Ji Bold" and put it into her bosom.

The third daughter-in-law of Xing only thinks that the sun is coming out from the west today, and this "Ji Daudao" can actually hand over money to herself. If everyone is here, she would like to take out the money to test whether it is real.

Xing Lao San hurriedly shouted to his wife: "Take it out!"

The third daughter-in-law of Xing said arrogantly: "Don't take it! He has taken advantage of us in normal times, so it's rare to give some money to our daughter. What's the matter?"

Xing Lao San was really angry now, and scolded: "You stinky bitch, don't you know how Uncle Ji and the others treated me before?"

Xing's third daughter-in-law curled her lips and said, "Isn't that just giving you an extra bite of food? What's the matter, you have to help him raise his son?"

Xing Lao San directly slapped his wife on the face and said: "My parents were in trouble on the river. It was Uncle Ji and Aunt Ji who had been raising me on that boat. Later, when I grew up and made money, I bought This house boat. But God was blindfolded. Uncle Ji and Aunt Ji didn’t live long. They fell ill and died. Do you think my bold brother wants to eat and be lazy every day? He is afraid of water and seasick, so let him go fishing on the river Just let him die! You mother-in-law know nothing!"

"Yes, yes, yes! I don't know what to say, so you can go there with your bold brother. I won't kill me, I want to take my daughter back to her mother's house." The third daughter-in-law of Xing lay on the boat and started playing.

"Ji Daudao" saw that they were really angry, and hurriedly persuaded: "Third brother, third sister-in-law is right. I was wrong before. I was lazy and idle. But I have decided to be a good person. Don't worry, my life will be better in the future. It will be fine."

After hearing this, Xing Lao San excitedly said: "Okay! You finally woke up bold!" As he said, Xing Lao San hugged "Ji Da Dao" tightly, making Ah Si feel goosebumps under his face, and now he regrets it a little After spending so much money to get Ji Bold's identity, Ah Da and the others saw through it all at once anyway, Ah Si felt that this time it was really a loss.

Seeing "Ji Daudao" the prodigal son turned around, Xing Laosan felt relieved all of a sudden, he suddenly thought that he had slapped his wife just now, and immediately regretted that his intestines were green.

Looking at his mother-in-law who was still crying on the deck, Xing Lao San leaned over to apologize.

People on the surrounding boats gathered around to watch the fun, and some people had already started pointing.Seeing that it was useless to talk, Xing Lao San dragged his wife into the cabin and said to everyone: "What are you looking at? I haven't seen a couple quarreling. They broke up!"

"Ji Bold" also helped to coax the crowd, until Xing Laosan and the others stopped making any noise in the cabin, and the people watching the excitement gradually dispersed.

"Ji Daudao" also returned to his own boat, but when he came back, he saw Shi Wu's sympathetic gaze, and Ah Si under the skin thought: "What do you mean by this little heartless one?"

Shi Wu said: "Uncle Bold, I'm sorry. When I saw you for the first time, I thought you were no different from the crazy gamblers I saw in the casino. But now I really think you are a brave person. You are so big. It's really amazing to be able to turn a prodigal son back at an old age!"

"Ji Bold" smiled and said, "Being praised so much by you, I really like you more and more." Saying that, a silver needle flashed in "Ji Boldness".

Seeing this, Ah Da suddenly came to Shi Wu's side and said to him: "You bold uncle said yesterday that you would make saury rice for us to eat. Anyway, you have nothing to do now, you and him go to the morning market, buy it and make it." .”

"Ji Bold" sank the silver needle into his fingers, smiled at Shi Wu and said, "Let's go together?"

Shi Wu looked at "Ji Bold" with some concern, and whispered to Ah Dao: "Grandpa, I don't know where the Wuyougu killer is yet, do you want to go together?"

Ah Da replied: "I'll have to write down the time when the Caobang big ferry docks, so I can choose which big ferry to take. You go, there are many people in the morning market here, he probably won't attack you .”

Shi Wu has always believed in A Da's words, he hummed, turned his head to "Ji Daudao" and said: "Uncle Daudao, let's go."

"Ji Bold" smiled kindly, and led Shi Wu to the shore.Then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Ah Da, as if to say: "You are cruel! I got a bargain and let me cook for you."

Ah Da looked at "Ji Daudao" innocently, as if to reply: "Yesterday you said you were going to make saury rice."

The Dongjiang morning market was crowded with people, selling all kinds of catches in the river, the main ones were especially fresh, and some of the river shrimps and live fish jumped out of the washbasin. "Ji Bold" mainly came to pick up long saury this time. He wandered along the road, but he couldn't find any of the size that he ate yesterday.

Just when "Ji Bold" took Shi Wu back to look for it, an old man with a goatee waved to him and said, "Bold, come here, come here."

"Ji Bold" secretly thought it was bad, he didn't know this person at all.

Fortunately, the old man with the goatee didn't ask any more questions, he just held the two saury fishes that were the same length as yesterday and said, "Bold, the long saury fish tasted very good yesterday. Uncle caught two more today, come on." Come, take one back."

"Ji Bold" breathed a sigh of relief, he was embarrassed to take the long saury of the old man with a goatee, and asked, "Uncle, how much is it?"

The goatee old man was surprised when he heard this: "You kid, yesterday you had the cheek to ask me to ask for it, but today you actually offered to give me money. It's very strange."

At this time, Shi Wu said from the side: "Grandpa, Uncle Bold has decided to start a new life, he will not depend on your money anymore, you can tell him the number."

Ah Si under the face of "Ji Bold" is really going to be driven crazy by these people, he suddenly feels that people are really complicated, he really misses the white tiger in Feipuyuan, and even the squirrel that stole his pears .But now he also has to be patient and continue to pretend to be the "Ji Bold" who turned the prodigal son back.

When the goatee old man heard Shi Wu's words, he also said with emotion: "Old Ji has appeared. Be bold, just give uncle fifteen coins. Uncle is happy today, you can take these two back and eat."

"Ji Boldness" hurriedly took out [-] Wen coins from his pocket and handed it to the old man with goatee, and ran back quickly under the gratifying eyes of the old man with goatee.As he walked on the road, he thought, "Well, you're so bold, don't tell me you blackmailed my money, but give me a whole lot of money. You're rambunctious, right? You'll be rascally when you come back."

"Ah-choo—" Ji Bold, who was far away in the upper-class guest room in Dongjiang Town, suddenly sneezed. He was drinking flower wine last night, and he was still asleep on the bed at this time.He rubbed his nose, wondering who missed him, he read the name of Xing Laosan, thinking that next time he must bring his third brother to Dongjiang Town Xiaoyao.

Just when "Ji Daudao" took Shi Wu back to his home boat, a man dressed as a fisherman followed behind them silently.
