Chapter 37 Boss Xu Enters the City
Mr. Xu is a typical man of decisiveness and efficiency.
He immediately called Boss Xu out of the room and gave him some instructions.
"Get up early tomorrow and go into town to see the third brother first. When you come back, remember to ask for a doctor in town. The old doctor Zhong you saw last time will do!"
"Be sure to remember this!"
"Dad, don't worry!"
Boss Xu was almost rolling his eyes at what Old Master Xu was saying. "I'm not even your age yet, and my ears are still working well!"
"You little bastard, get out of here!"
Old Master Xu raised his foot and kicked, without any sign of twisting his waist.
…
Early the next morning, Boss Xu got up early as expected. Zhou made him some pancakes and boiled eggs, and then watched him leave the house in the cold wind at dawn.
It is really cold in the morning in late autumn and early winter.
Poor Boss Xu could only put his hands in his sleeves and walk with big strides to resist the early morning cold.
Fortunately, the road leading from Lingshui Village to the town has been repaired, and the flat surface means that Boss Xu doesn't have to worry too much about stepping into a pit.
The faster you walk, the warmer your body becomes.
By the time the sun was high in the sky, Boss Xu had already seen the tall city walls of the county town.
At this moment, the city gate was open, and the soldiers guarding the gate saw Boss Xu and recognized him.
Because the tribute that was robbed twenty years ago was found, not only the people in the county government received a reward, but the soldiers of the garrison also received some rewards.
Therefore, when the soldiers guarding the gate saw Boss Xu appear, they were very enthusiastic.
Just then, the fireman brought breakfast, and Boss Xu was dragged along to have a late lunch.
After finally saying goodbye to the enthusiastic soldiers of the town army, Boss Xu found the academy where Old Third Xu was studying, greeted the old man guarding the gate, and soon he saw Old Third Xu.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Seeing Boss Xu show up, Third Xu was quite surprised. "My rations will be finished in two days. I'll go home when they're finished!"
"Nothing, I just went to the city to buy some things, and my dad asked me to come and see you on the way!"
"What are you buying? Do you need my help?"
When Xu Laosan heard what his eldest brother said, he immediately expressed his willingness to help.
"Buy some cloth and cotton; it's not heavy. Just study hard. I'm relieved to see you're okay!"
As for inviting Xu Lao San to go home together? Xu Lao Da had no such intention at all.
"Brother, well, my wife doesn't have anything to say to me?"
"You mean the third sister-in-law? No!"
The eldest son of the Xu family went to the city on a whim of Mr. Xu, perhaps at night. The third son of the Xu family, Wang, had already returned to her own room.
Boss Xu had set off early in the morning, and Wang was still dreaming in bed at that time, so it was even more impossible for her to know.
After hearing what his elder brother said, Xu Lao San was extremely discouraged.
These days, he just calmed down and waited for news.
When he saw his elder brother, he thought it was good news!
"Oh, by the way, Third Brother, it seems that Third Brother's wife is pregnant!"
When Xu Laosan was already feeling sad in his heart, Xu Laoda suddenly poured a bucket of hot water over his head, which startled Xu Laosan so much that his eyes widened.
"My father told me to go back and ask Doctor Zhong to come home with me and take my third brother's wife's pulse!"
"You'll know when the time comes!"
After hearing what his elder brother said, how could Xu Lao San bear it any longer?
"Brother, please wait for a moment. I'll ask the teacher for leave and go home with you!"
Xu Laosan was so excited!
