    Duan Yanqing and Duan Wuji returned home and started to practice martial arts every day, getting up early and returning home every day to practice martial arts, the wind and rain never stopped.

    Half a year later, Duan Wuji's small peach wood sword has long been replaced by a jujube wood sword, and the small water-carrying stick has been replaced by a big pagoda wood stick.  year old child.

    Duan Yanqing came back from going out one day and said to Duan Changsheng: "Longsheng, today I went to the next Duanjiaji, and went to your third grandfather's grandpa's house. Your third grandpa's grandpa and his family have encountered some troublesome things recently.  , The day before yesterday, when the cowherd of your third grandfather's family went to herd cattle on the hillside, the shepherd boy was bitten by a wolf, and now he is recuperating at home.

    The calf was also killed by the wolf. Isn't it the slack season now, and no one has released the six or seven cows now.

    This time I will go to your third grandfather's house. Your third grandfather intends to let you shepherd him for a while, and my father also agreed.

    You also know that these six or seven cows eat a lot of food a day.  Now that the grass on the hillside is lush, grazing cattle can save a lot of things at home.

    Besides, our family often uses cattle from your third grandfather¡¯s family during busy farming seasons, so we have to help with this.

    Your third grandfather said that the cattle herders will take care of the food, so our family can save a lot of food. Longevity, let me see you tomorrow.  "

    Duan Changsheng frowned.  "Father, I think that snack guy has eaten all our food, but now he wants me to go out to herd cattle to save food? I won't go, it's degrading to do that job."

    Duan Yanqing grinned.  "Longevity, this, this I promised your third grandfather, this, this, how can I explain to your third grandfather? Sigh, I am so worried."

    At this moment, Duan Wuji happened to be tired from practicing martial arts and went into the house to eat steamed buns. Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Father, why don't you let me go if there is such a good thing. I eat a lot by nature. If I go  It can save a lot of food for the family. Isn¡¯t their family in charge of food?¡±

    Duan Yanqing laughed and said, "Wuji, then don't you practice martial arts anymore?"

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Father, why don't I practice martial arts anymore? I practice martial arts while herding cattle. There is no delay in both herding cattle and practicing martial arts. Didn't the calf born by his cow die? I went to practice martial arts."  In addition to drinking its milk, it is also a good time to replenish physical strength."

    Liu Caihua listened and nodded.

    "Well, head of the family, I think it's okay to let Er Dan go. Don't look at this kid who is only nine years old. He is not much shorter than his brother. He is probably stronger than his brother. Besides, this kid can do it alone.  If he went to eat three of his elder brothers, wouldn't our family save more food."

    "Well, fine, then tomorrow Wuji you come with me."

    "Okay, let's go there tomorrow."

    The next morning, Duan Yanqing and Duan Wuji got up early, and Duan Wuji changed into new clothes.  Duan Yanqing said to Duan Wuji: "Wuji, take your wooden sword and big stick, let's go."

    The two of them walked straight towards Duanjiaji, and while they were walking, Duan Yanqing said to Duan Wuji: "Wuji, we also moved here from Duanjiaji, your great-grandfather's generation.

    ? Your third grandpa and your great-grandfather were originally brothers, but the age difference between the two brothers is relatively large. They are about twenty years apart. It is only because your great-grandfather is not good at management that our network is so poor.

    For so many years, whenever the farming season is busy, my father has borrowed cattle from your third grandfather for use, and he has helped our family a lot for so many years. This time, when you go to your third grandfather¡¯s house, you must give them a good rest.  Niu!  Otherwise, our family will be sorry for others.

    Promise, did you hear me clearly?  "

    Duan Wuji nodded.  "Well, Dad, I heard everything clearly, so don't worry, Wuji will never embarrass you."

    The father and son chatted and walked. After walking about five miles, they came to a big village, which was Duanjiaji.

    Duan Yanqing led Duan Wuji to a compound in the south of the village, this was the home of the third grandfather of Duan Wuji.

    I saw that this big yard is about six or seven acres in size, and the yard is full of many poplar trees.

    The sanhezi house, although not too magnificent, has a blue brick and tile roof. It looks like a wealthy family. There is a well next to the west wing, and there is a pulley at the mouth of the well. The two north of the west wing are the barns.  .

    There are six or seven cows and two horses in the barn, and the main house to the north is the house where Duan Wuji's third grandfather lived.

    Duan Yanqing led Duan Wuji straight to the main room, and came to a room in the main room.The old man who was many years old was sitting on a chair drinking tea, when Duan Yanqing saw him, he quickly knelt down and saluted.

    "Third Grandpa, here comes your grandson Duan Yanqing. Third Grandpa, this is my second son Duan Wuji, who is nine years old this year. I plan to let him herd cattle for you. Third Grandpa, do you think it's okay?

    Wuji, why don't you kneel down to greet your third grandfather.  "

    After hearing this, Duan Wuji quickly fell to his knees.  "Grandpa, my great-grandson, Duan Wuji, has given you my best wishes. I wish you a long life and prosperity."

    The old man smiled.  "Boy, are you good at talking? Your father taught you.

    Boy, did you herd cattle?  "

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "If you go back to your grandfather, you can do it, as long as others do it, I can do it.

    Isn't it just herding cattle?  "

    "Well, that's fine. As long as you can do it, then Yanqing will lead him around the barn."

    Duan Yanqing nodded after listening.

    "Third Grandpa, this child has a shortcoming. This kid just eats too much, and he has no other shortcoming."

    The old man laughed.  "Isn't it just eating so much? It doesn't matter, grandpa can still afford his food. Besides, how much can a nine-year-old child eat in a day?"

    Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Third Grandpa, you don't know that this kid practices martial arts, and one person can eat three people."

    The old man smiled and shook his head.

    "Ting Qing, it's an exaggeration. If you say he can eat, I believe it, but if you say he can eat three people, I don't believe it.

    Promise, I can tell you that we graze cattle three times a day.  Once in the morning, once after breakfast, and once after lunch, do you understand?  From then on, the cows will no longer be fed at night, did you hear clearly?  "

    Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

    "Going back to what my grandfather said, I understand. Grandpa, I think we can change it to herding cattle twice a day. Once in the morning, after eating breakfast, I will not come back at noon when I have enough dry food. I will come back at night.  , to ensure that the livestock are fat and strong."

    The old man laughed and said, "That's a good thing, but, Wuji, have you suffered?"

    "Hey, what can't you bear?"

    "You can't even order food at noon, can you bear it after a long time?"

    "Hey, isn't there wild onions, wild garlic, and wild leeks all over the hillside? Isn't it full of bitter herbs? Can you eat without vegetables?"

    "Then thirsty?"

    "Didn't our cow just give birth and the calf died? I drink milk from the cow when I'm thirsty."

    The old man listened and nodded.  "Well, it's better this way.

    Yanqing, lead Wuji around the barn, Wuji, just tell me if you have any difficulties, and I will help you solve them.  "

    Duan Wuji listened and nodded.  "Thank you, grandpa."

    After finishing speaking, Duan Yanqing led Duan Wuji to the barn. Duan Wuji was dumbfounded when he saw a few animals. He saw a few cows were starving and tied up in the barn half dead.  Thin as a praying mantis.

    Duan Yanqing saw it and said with a smile: "Wuji, I will teach you these few animals, you can let them go carefully."

    "Don't worry, within a month, I promise to fatten up these animals."

    "Well, then I'm relieved. Wuji, you stay here, I'm leaving for my father, and don't forget to herd the cows after dinner."

    Duan Wuji nodded.  "Well, Dad, you go back, you can rest assured here."

    Duan Yanqing nodded and turned to leave.

    After a while, the third grandpa's house was open for dinner.  After eating breakfast, Duan Wuji immediately led the herd of cattle and horses and walked straight out of the town with dry food.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
