At the foot of Shaoshi Mountain, Qiao's house.
The three mud huts were gone. A two-meter-high stone wall replaced the original fence. The garden inside was beautiful, with red walls and green tiles hidden among the flowers and plants. A stream of clear water meandered past, dispersing the scorching heat.
" Old Master, don't tire yourself out. Let me…" An agile male servant snatched the hoe from Qiao-fu's hand and smiled foolishly. He turned around and started digging in a vegetable field, turning over the soil. As he dug, he urged Qiao-fu to rest.
Qiao-fu had no choice but to return to the main room with his belly that was getting bigger and bigger.
"Madam, please go and take a look at the new beggars. They're standing in rows under the sun…I'll feed the chickens and ducks!”A strong woman dressed as a servant reached out to take the dustpan from Madam Qiao's hand and said with a silly smile. " Oh la la…hehehe…" He turned around and played with the chickens and ducks. He grabbed the grains in the dustpan and sprinkled them down.
"Sigh, these days are so boring!”Qiao-fu and Qiao-mu sat together in the guest hall, drinking tea served by the maid and chatting.
"Old man, Feng 'er has been outside for half a year. I wonder how he is doing? Madam Qiao's face was flushed red, and all kinds of gold and silver jewelry hung on her hair, ears, and neck…She looked like she was wearing jewelry that was no worse than the mistress of a wealthy family. His eyes were filled with worry as he muttered.
"Old woman, you have to say it a hundred times a day…My ears are getting calluses! If you have nothing to do, let Hui Gang, Hui Ling, Hui Jue, and Hui Zhen accompany you out to relax!”Qiao-fu rolled his eyes and grumbled unhappily.
"Aren't you worried about your son? If you don't want to, why don't you let me say it!" Madam Qiao said angrily.
"Who doesn't want to! I don't think I can be like you, nagging every day!”
"I, I have nothing to do all day. You don't even allow me to think about my son?”
At this moment, light footsteps came from outside the door.
"Godfather, Godmother! Qiao Feng sent back another silver tael!" He saw a group of monks, all of them had the back of a tiger and the waist of a bear, with fat heads and big ears. On his shiny bald head, there were only two scars at most. He walked in with a smile.
With a clang, at least a hundred taels of silver were placed on the wide sandalwood table.
"Huigang, we've already given over a thousand taels this month! The house had changed…could Feng 'er earn so much outside?”Qiao-mu pointed at Hui Gang, who usually " didn't lie ", and asked suspiciously.
"Godmother! You don't know this, but Qiao Feng is now the leader of Beggar's Sect. He has more than ten thousand people under him…The money he earns every day is tens of thousands! Other than handing it over to the sect, the rest would be at his disposal!”Hui Gang, who was as strong as an ox, replied respectfully. Only the monks knew that this fellow was talking nonsense and boasting loudly. In reality, this silver was all obtained from "no silver here".
"Is that so? "But I saw the new young men from Beggar's Sect. All of them were dressed in tattered clothes. They don't look like rich gangs…" Madam Qiao was skeptical. She pointed at the 4000 Da Yong disciples who were training outside the house and asked in confusion.
"This…Oh right, Godmother! Think about it, Beggar's Sect is full of beggars. Even if they have money, they won't show it! He had to beg for food all day long, and he didn't need to spend money…This was all in and out! Therefore, Beggar's Sect was extremely rich!”Hui Gang was stunned. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration as he rubbed his bald head and laughed.
"Is that so?"
"Absolutely!"
"Old man, what do you think?" Qiao-mu turned to Qiao-fu and asked worriedly.
"A woman's opinion! " There are many things you haven't seen…" Qiao-fu puffed out his chest as if he had experienced countless things and was very knowledgeable. He berated Qiao-mu.
" You know so much, hmph…" Madam Qiao scolded angrily.
The room became lively, and Madam Qiao laughed softly from time to time.
"Madam, Young Master Qiao Feng is back!”A strong servant hurried over and shouted.
Everyone stopped talking. It was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. After a while, all of them were pleasantly surprised as they walked towards the gates of the Qiao Estate.
Just as he left the guest hall, a group of people walked over from afar. The one at the front was Qiao Feng.
"Father, Mother!" Qiao Feng, whose figure was becoming increasingly terrifying, took a few quick steps forward and knelt down in front of Father and Mother Qiao like a toppling mountain of gold.
"Son! I missed you so much!" Madam Qiao stroked Qiao Feng's foot-long hair with both hands, his needle-like beard, and his manly face…Looking at it over and over again, tears kept falling. He laughed as he looked at the screen.
"I am Wang Ruoshui (Mu Yiyi, Quan Qingqing, Yang Ying). Greetings, Uncle and Auntie!”The four women then knelt down and greeted him sweetly.
"Quick, get up! Ouch! Old man, quickly call the servants to kill chickens and ducks…No, it's better to kill a pig!”Qiao-mu's eyes lit up. She stopped crying and walked towards the four women, leaving her son behind. The smile on her face was endless. She looked at this and that, and her eyes were filled with fragrance. They were all so beautiful…She said excitedly, Good girls, get up…Nanny Chang, quickly serve tea and snacks…"
The four women were very clever, accompanying Qiao-mu and picking out pleasant words to say. The sounds of birds and swallows were heard, and a fragrant wind blew…Qiao Feng was left kneeling on the ground alone.
"Qiao Feng!"
"Qiao Feng…"
Huiling, Huigang, Huijue, Huiming, and the other monks surrounded him with laughter.
"Qiao Feng has been gone for half a year. Thank you for taking care of my family!”Qiao Feng bowed heavily to them and said,"Is everyone alright?"”
"Alright! " I've been staying in the Commandment Yard for two to three days. My butt is almost gone…" The monks wailed.
"Qiao Feng, think of a way. Let us go down the mountain with you…"
"Tsk tsk! Those women of yours look like fairies! Amitabha Buddha…I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm moved…"
"Qiao Feng, you're living so comfortably now! Don't forget that our senior brothers are suffering every day…"
A group of bad monks surrounded Qiao Feng and complained about their sufferings. She strongly requested to leave the mountain and told him to think of a way.
……
Mount Song, Shaolin Temple, in the Taoist temple. The bell chimes were still melodious, and the chanting of scriptures in the temple hall was still echoing.
"Disciple Qiao Feng greets Master!" Qiao Feng knelt in front of Master Xuan Ku and kowtowed heavily.
"Feng 'er, get up! I heard about what happened to you. Protecting Wang Shao, protecting the Yang Family…All of this did not bring shame to his master!”Xuan Ku twirled the Buddha beads in his hand and praised with a face full of joy.
"This is because you have taught me well. I don't dare to be complacent! I remember every word you say…Every night, I reflect on myself three times. For example, great sorrow and tears, great enlightenment without words…Non-Phase as the body, endless use…Only then did he achieve some achievements!”Qiao Feng opened his mouth and said a series of flowery words. It was as if she couldn't walk without her master…
" Haha…" Xuan Ku smiled widely, his eyes narrowed as he reminisced endlessly. Everyone liked to hear good words, and the more they heard about their proud disciple Qiao Feng, the more they liked it.
"However, this disciple is still weak! As the saying goes,'A good man has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes!'。If my disciple is besieged by bad people and suffers a loss, wouldn't it be a disgrace to Shaolin's prestige! This disciple is willing to invite Master to the Arhat Hall to talk to the eighteen Arhats…"
"Amitabha Buddha! I understand what you mean…Buddha said," It couldn't be said! "Do you understand…" Xuan Ku's eyes lit up as he said to Qiao Feng. Then, he closed his eyes and stopped talking.
" Thank you, Master..." Qiao Feng was overjoyed.
……
After a day of hard work.
The sunset was lingering in the west, unwilling to leave. Yang Zhong, Yang Yong, Tan Gong and Tan Po, as well as Yang Zhetie and Wang Lingzhi…were all gathered in one place. Four tables were opened in a row to celebrate the gathering of everyone.
That group of monks was especially eye-catching. They drank wine and ate meat. It was so satisfying!
Qiao Feng brought the four girls to accompany Father and Mother Qiao, talking about what happened after they left. Three out of ten sentences were false. All the dangers were not mentioned, and all the difficulties had changed…
Madam Qiao was worried about her son. When he heard this, he was beaming with joy and no longer worried.
"Right? I already said, don't worry!" Qiao-fu muttered to himself and said to Qiao-mu.
After dinner, Mother Qiao mysteriously pulled Qiao Feng into the inner room. Qiao-fu was sitting in an armchair, calmly drinking tea and humming a play.
"Old man, stop singing!" Qiao-mu said angrily to Qiao-fu. Then he turned around and asked his son,"Son! So many beautiful daughters, which one do you want to make your wife?”
" This..." Qiao Feng really hadn't thought about it."Mother, I will make whoever you want as my wife!”
"Aiyo! "This is going to be difficult…" Qiao-mu had a worried expression as she muttered,"I'm sorry.""They're all like fairies. However, I only have one wife…"
"Old man, tell me!" Qiao-mu turned to Qiao-fu and asked.
"Feng 'er has grown up and is so smart. Don't worry so much. Let him make his own decisions!”Qiao-fu was also in a difficult position and pushed it to his son.
" Mother, there's no hurry…" Qiao Feng carefully comforted her.
" Sigh…" Madam Qiao sighed and frowned.
"If you don't have a wife, you'll be worried. If you have more wives, you'll be worried too! One heart doesn't have ten pieces. Can you take care of it?”Qiao-fu looked at Qiao-mu and shook his head.
" You don't want to do such a big thing? You just listen to other people's stories all day long…" Madam Qiao said angrily.
"Alright, alright! "Then tell me…" Father Qiao said helplessly.
……
Qiao Feng quietly retreated.
Qiao-fu and Qiao-mu were still discussing, both happy and worried…
(This chapter doesn't have a male or female part!) The author thought about it for a long time. Perhaps he had written too much about this! In the future, write as little as possible…Please give more suggestions…Continue to send flowers and collect them!）
