The ox cart slowed down when it arrived in front of a house.
The house here is not worse than those in the town. It is also a large blue brick and tile house, and it occupies a large area from the outside.
Shen Dalang and the others knew that Fang Chun's family had a small fortune, so they were not surprised to see how big his house was.
Shen Dalang, who was driving the carriage, called out, "Brother Fang, we've arrived at your house."
"Oh good!"
Fang Chun jumped off the ox cart, and Shen Erlang and others in the cart also jumped off to see him off.
Fang Chun bowed to Shen Dalang and the others and said, "Thank you all for sending me back. Why don't I go home and have a drink of water?"
Shen Dalang looked up at the moonlight and said, "No, it's getting late today. If it gets any later, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the way back."
Fang Chun could only say: "Okay, then everyone please be safe on your way home. I'll invite you all to my house for tea next time."
Squeak~
The door was opened, and a young boy who looked only five or six years old rushed out, followed by a girl in a goose yellow dress and a couple.
The young man Fang Heng said: "Brother, you are finally back."
"Just now, my sister said she heard some noises outside, and she knew you were back, so my sister and I came to pick you up."
The girl behind him, Fang Nian, also called out softly, "Brother."
Then he saw Shen Dalang and the other four standing with Fang Chun, and he smiled and bowed slightly.
Shen Dalang quickly returned the greeting, and the others followed suit.
Fang Chun introduced them, "Those two are my parents, this is my younger sister Fang Nian and my younger brother Fang Heng, these are my good friends in the academy, and they all passed the examination and became scholars this time."
After hearing Fang Chun introduce these people who all passed the exam, Fang's father looked at the faces of Shen Dalang and the others and said in surprise: "I think these people look similar. Could they be the brothers who passed the exam at the same time as Chun'er mentioned?"
Fang Chun smiled and continued, "They are the ones that my father and I talked about. The Shen brothers and the Zhang brothers are both very talented."
Father Fang laughed and said, "So it's these little brothers. Now that you are at the door of our house, come in and have a rest."
Shen Dalang and others declined again, saying that it was too late today and they would come to bother them another day.
When he heard that Shen Dalang and his family lived in Longxian Village not far away, Fang's father no longer insisted and said that he would visit Shen Rong and his family another day to ask them how they raised so many talented children.
"Then Uncle Fang, Brother Fang, we will take our leave now."
Shen Erlang and others got back on the ox cart, and Shen Dalang also sat on the shaft to say goodbye to the Fang family.
The place where Fang Nian was standing blocked the front of the ox cart. She wanted to take two steps back to make way for the ox cart, but she stepped on a stone and her foot slipped and she was about to fall forward.
If you fall down, you will be trampled by the cows.
Shen Dalang quickly reined in the cow, leaped forward on tiptoe, grabbed Fang Nian's arm as she was about to fall, and pulled her up.
"Miss Fang, be careful."
Shen Dalang handed Fang Nian over to Fang's mother who ran over in fear and reminded her softly.
Fang Nian thanked him: "Thank you, you almost scared me just now."
"Nothing."
Shen Dalang sat on the shaft again and drove the ox cart on the road.
Fang Heng grabbed Fang Nian who was looking towards the end of the road and said, "Sister, come back to your senses. They have all gone far away. Let's go home quickly."
Nothing could be seen at the end of the road. When Fang Nian came back to her senses, she was relieved to see that no one noticed her recent gaffe. She nodded and followed them back.
On the ox cart, Sanlang laughed and teased: "Brother, you were really quick just now, you were a hero saving a beautiful girl~"
Shen Dalang was concentrating on watching the road, and replied with a distracted look: "What kind of hero saves the beauty? I just gave her a hand."
When Shen Dalang and others returned home, it was already dark, and Shen Yu'an had also returned home.
"Sanlang, come here." Shen Yu'an looked at Shen Sanlang and said.
Shen Sanlang ran to Shen Yuan in two or three steps and asked, "Sister, what's the matter?"
"I have already told Feixi today that I will let you follow him for a while, but if you work with him, you must follow his arrangements. If you complain about the hardship, I will take you back directly, and you don't have to talk about it anymore. And you can't go home casually. Have you thought about it?"
Sanlang Shen said hurriedly: "I've made up my mind, sister, so when should I go find Feixi?"
"Tomorrow, just pack a few sets of clothes today."
Shen Yu'an went back to the house after he finished speaking. When the Shen family heard that Sanlang was leaving tomorrow, they all hurried to help him prepare things.
Shen Yu'an's voice came from inside the house: "Just bring a few sets of clothes. He's not going out for fun, so there's no need to bring so many things."
Zhao kept reducing her expenses, and in addition to clothes, she also put some change and storable food in his bag.
Shen Sanlang said happily: "Mom, stop working and go back to sleep."
"You better be careful, kid. Mom doesn't want you to go out upright and come back sideways."
As Zhao was scolding his son, she started to cry. She was really worried that Sanlang might encounter an accident while he was out there.
"Oh, mother, don't worry. Sister has said that I am the best martial artist among all of us brothers. Instead of thinking about these nonsense, you should think about how I, your son, will become a general when I come back next time. Think about how to show off when you go out and talk to the aunts in the village."
Zhao looked at Sanlang and laughed, "You little brat, look at how capable you are, and you're even a general. I'll be thankful if you don't come back with broken arms and legs!"
Sanlang shouted in dissatisfaction: "Mother, how can you not trust your son?"
"Okay, go to sleep quickly. You don't know when you will leave tomorrow. I will make you a good meal tomorrow morning."
After Song finished speaking, she and Shen Ming, who came with her, walked out of Shen Sanlang and Shen Silang's room.
Walking out of the door, Zhao patted Shen Ming beside her and said, "Do you think our son will really come back as a great general?"
Shen Ming glanced at her and said, "Didn't you still not believe it just now?"
After Zhao and Shen Ming left, Sanlang in the room also grumbled to Silang: "How can a mother be like this? I'm leaving tomorrow and you're still insulting me."
"He also said he would cook me a good meal tomorrow. Why does that sound so strange? In the book, aren't these words said to people who are about to die?"
"Well, then tell me if I can come back as a great general."
Si Lang rolled his eyes at San Lang and turned his back, "Just don't come back crying. It would be embarrassing if you asked your elder sister to pick you up."
"Hey, you!"
Sanlang pounced on him angrily, and the two brothers started fighting.
The next day, Zhao really cooked a table full of Sanlang's favorite dishes to help Sanlang practice his wish.
