One reinforcement point a day

Chapter 4
One day, during dinner, his father Zhou Yong said to Zhou Tai suddenly: "You are so lazy, you will easily starve to death in the future, don't you think about your future?"

Zhou Tai replied with a very small voice: "No."

I want to cultivate immortality in the future, so how could I starve to death? Taking ten thousand steps back, even if I fail to cultivate immortality, I won't starve to death.

I'm not really lazy, if I'm going to die, either I'm facing a real desperation, or I have no hope of cultivating immortality, I want to leave.

"In the future, your mother and I will be gone, what will you do?" Father Zhou continued on his own. "Are you expecting your elder brother to raise you? I've never heard of raising a brother, and it's even more impossible for others to raise you..."

Zhou Tai didn't answer the question. It's easy for a person to get a tan, it only takes a few days, but it's not so easy to turn white after getting a tan.I am already ten years old, and I am about to start cultivating immortals. I have survived these few years, how can I fail?So I can only be silent.

The elder brother next to him didn't answer the call either. The elder brother thought that he would get married in the future, and his family would have to live and eat rice, so he couldn't afford to feed a moth.

I don't know if it was his father's sudden emotion or what, Zhou Tai felt that the porridge in the bowl was becoming more and more unpalatable, not only the taste, but also the mood of eating.

In the future, he will succeed in cultivating immortals and try his best to repay them. Thinking in his heart, Zhou Tai didn't pay much attention to this matter. This is not the first time, and it probably won't be the last time.

One day later, when the family's breakfast was almost over, Zhou's father suddenly said to him: "Er Gouzi, you are not allowed to run around today, just stay at home!"

"Why?" I can't do anything at home by myself, and I haven't been in such a situation before. This request is a bit strange.

"Er Gouzi, for the sake of your future, there is a way to live. I dragged someone to find you a decent job in the town, as an apprentice to the doctor in the town pharmacy." The mother said from the side, but her expression was a little uncomfortable. Naturally, the expression of the elder brother next to him was also a little weird.

"Whether you want to go or not, you have to go." Zhou's father interrupted his mother's next words in a stern tone.

"I can only stay at home, I don't go far, and I can come back anytime if I call." Zhou Tai said again, fighting for the chance to go out for himself.

"When you go out, don't you see your shadow until dinner? This is today's big event, stay at home honestly." This is what my mother said.

"Dare to run out and break your legs!" This is what my father said.

……

Being able to go to the town, and someone would take it with him, was what Zhou Tai wanted very much in the past, and he was very willing to go, and he could learn more about the world by walking a little more.

Being a pharmacy apprentice is also a good choice for now.If Zhou Tai was really just a ten-year-old child, he would either be reluctant to part with his parents, afraid of going to a strange place alone, or full of expectations for the new environment.

But he is not, he has decades of life experience from another life in his body, which is quite weird.

There was no news about this matter before, it was too sudden, if I really asked myself to be an apprentice, I should have told myself a long time ago, it would be normal to repeat it several times, instead of notifying me in advance.

Secondly, I know the situation of my family well. To my family, a doctor in a pharmacy is already quite a person, and a simple apprentice is not so easy to be.If there are really relatives or acquaintances to help, why now, such a good thing, why didn't it fall on the eldest brother, but on myself, a well-known lazy bastard?
I can't figure it out, maybe I really think too much, Zhou Tai can only think so in the end.

Although there is an accident in the memory, the body is indeed their own flesh and blood, and I haven't shown anything too weird, so it is impossible to harm myself.

……

Sitting on the carriage leaving the village, Zhou Tai lowered his head and remained silent. He did not expect that the plan did not change so quickly, and he left in this way, and it was a bit sad to leave.

Although the parents are trying their best to cover up, but how can I, as a commodity, stay completely out of the matter.

He was sold for ten taels of silver.He saw a little unbearable in the eyes of his parents, and also saw their joy when they got the money.

When I left, my eldest brother didn't see it, and my younger siblings who didn't know it always looked at me enviously.

Ten taels of silver was enough for the elder brother to marry a wife, and the rest could buy enough food for the whole family for half a year. Zhou Tai never expected that he would be worth ten taels of silver.

At the same time, Zhou Tai discovered another terrible thing. Before that, he and his parents pressed their fingerprints on a piece of paper at the same time. I don't know any of them.

Growing up so big, it was the first time I saw the words in this world, and they were all strange to each other.

Think about it, it is natural, but it is hard to accept that I am an illiterate, what should I do if I put a secret book of cultivation in front of me?Is it easy to learn characters?This raises a series of questions.

Parents tried their best to maintain their lies, so that many of the prefaces did not match the postscript. As for the reason, Zhou Tai wanted to come, more because he didn't want to cry by himself.

Zhou Tai didn't expose this lie, he acted like an ordinary child who left home. Although the destination may have changed, the parting is still true.

Ten taels of silver, the price of an unborn cultivator seedling.

This made Zhou Tai, who had always been a little flustered and anxious, feel that his dream of cultivating immortals was just like dreaming again, being shattered by reality.

The carriage was a bit crowded, one reason was the narrowness of the carriage, and the other reason was that besides Zhou Tai, there were several other children.

It was very quiet at the moment, and the noisy children were all tied up and gagged. Zhou Tai did not enjoy this kind of bound treatment because he was always quiet.

Zhou Tai has always controlled his emotions, because he knew that he would face immortality forever, but people have emotions when they get along with each other day and night for ten years. If you let him take the initiative to break up, it is really difficult, but the parents in this life, give him Lesson learned.

Thinking about it from another aspect, he can understand that in the eyes of Zhou Yong and his wife, if they sell themselves, not only will they get money, but also, this lazy son who is destined to starve to death in the future, may still be able to live well.

Understanding is understanding, but never accepting.
