Chapter 68 Big Dragon Head (seeking Monthly Pass)
At sunset, Chen Shou, Chen Dao and others came back with a whole body of mud.

Chen Sheng, who had been waiting for a long time, greeted him and asked, "Dad, how is the farm?"

Chen Shou shook his head with a worried expression: "It's not good, the well digger has searched three directions in a row, but no water has been dug out..."

There was originally a small river near the farm where the grain merchant Zhang family handed over to the merchant Chen family.

But that little river is one of the tributaries of the Shahe River.

Now that the Shahe River is about to dry up, that small river has long since dried up.

"How about the crops in the field?"

Chen Sheng's heart was also heavy when he heard the words. Although he had prepared early, he had already stored about 15 catties of grain on hand so far.

But this amount of food is still a drop in the bucket compared to the more than 300 households of the Chen family.

Now that the grain shortage is imminent, the price of grain in the market has more than tripled, and the business of the chain stalls is almost unsustainable. It is obviously unrealistic to rely on selling grain to store grain!

"There is an old well at Chang's Village, and the water is normal for the time being. Let's chat with their owner, and let's irrigate the fields from that ancient well first."

Chen Shou sighed and replied, "But it can only be a relief for a while. If it doesn't rain again, not to mention the old well in Changjiazhuang can't hold it, even the tenants in Zhuangzi can't hold it!"

A farm with a size of [-] acres, only relying on carrying water to irrigate the fields, can the land for idle tenants be able to withstand?

"If you can't hold it, you have to hold on first!"

Chen Sheng understood this truth, but he had no other way: "It's better to be tired now than to starve the whole family behind... I will find a solution as soon as possible!"

As soon as Chen Shou heard this, he picked up the palm of his hand and slapped him on the back of his head in a fit of anger.

Chen Sheng was beaten so hard that he came back to his senses and took a few steps back, jumping on his feet and shouting angrily, "You must be shy, when you are old, let's see how I treat you. !"

"Rebel!"

Chen Shou was already furious, rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards Chen Sheng.

Seeing this, Chen Sheng pulled his legs and ran to the kitchen. While running, he turned around and shouted at Chen Dao: "Uncle Dao, my nephew has prepared clothes for you and your uncles, you go and change them, and go out with your nephew at night. One trip... sis, help!"

"Little deflated calf, it's useless for you to call anyone today. If I don't knock out your shit, you'll be clean!"

"Third Master, Fifth Master, Seventh Master, help, my father is going to beat me to death!"

Chen Dao, who was standing at the door holding the knife:...

……

The bright moon has just climbed up the branch.

The streets of Beicheng under the curfew have long since disappeared.

Wearing a moon-white robe with wide sleeves and a high white jade crown, Chen Sheng led twelve Youzhou soldiers, including Chen Dao, to quickly shuttle through the remote alleys, running around the road. Beicheng Tiger Martial Arts Hall.

"Uncle Knife, look at my gestures later, when I pat the armrest of the seat, you will draw the knife to kill, and if I touch the armrest of the seat with my finger, you will cut off his arm... Well, it may be a little rusty at first. After a long time, you can decide for yourself whether to kill or maim."

"What we are going to do is to use our family's banner to oppress the good, adulterous and looting scum. Before we start, one by one, my nephew will make it clear that you don't have to bear any burden."

Walking all the way, Chen Sheng grinned and said to Chen Dao beside him.

"Eldest son is too worried!"

Chen Dao smiled, "It's just an internal matter, how can there be a burden."

After a pause, he saw that Chen Sheng was rubbing the painful mask on his red and swollen cheeks, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Eldest son, don't blame him for being so talkative, the son said: "The son does not speak his father's fault, the second master is a man... rough You are crazy, but you have done your best for you and our family. You are smart and you should know his intentions, so why not follow him? If father and son are in harmony, you don’t have to suffer like this.”

"You don't understand!"

Chen Sheng smiled and waved his hand, "Our father and son are both comfortable in this way of getting along. If I still keep my son's duty scrupulously, his father will be uncomfortable, and I will be uncomfortable as a son!"

He actually thought about acting silly and cute, and playing a big play of filial piety with Chen Shou together.

It is a pity that the current situation does not allow to stand by and pretend to be silly and cute, and go back to the road of youth.

The soul of a 40-year-old greasy middle-aged man, he can't accept the appearance of being silly and cute.

what?
He and Zhao Qing pretended to be silly and cute?

Is that the love between husband and wife?
Single dogs know a basket!
But if he doesn't act, his way of thinking will definitely make Chen Shou feel inferior.

This is an advantage given to him by the times, no doubt!

As a father, you must hope that your son will have a bright future!
But no father can accept that he loses the dignity and majesty of being a father!
Chen Shou is a living person!
He is not the tool man of Guang Weizheng, who is used as a foil for the protagonist in third-rate novels.

He will not be ashamed of himself because Chen Sheng's brilliance is too bright, and he is willing to silently retreat to the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth line, and since then he will be reduced to a background board that only calls 666 to Chen Sheng.

He would blame himself, be sad, be unwilling, be irritable, get angry, and even if it didn't work out, he would even cause a split between father and son... After all, he is the father, and he is the head of the family!
That is undoubtedly the ending that Chen Sheng absolutely does not want to see.

Yes.

Since the father and son are kind and filial, the pure father and son cannot do it.

Then treat father and son as buddies!
Look.

After Chen Sheng jumped and despised Chen Shou's stupidity, didn't he feel that he was finally stubborn and shamed?
And Chen Shou, after beating Chen Shengpang, didn't he feel refreshed, and his body was so good?
Well, except for Chen Sheng's pain in the flesh, it can be said that everyone is happy!

……

Hearing this, Chen Dao couldn't help thinking of the scene where the father and son were squatting together on the steps in front of the hall while holding a big sea bowl at dinner, and couldn't help but smile.

It really is……

"arrive!"

Chen Sheng's words awakened Chen Dao in his association. As soon as he looked up, he saw the brightly lit Tiger Martial Arts Hall in front of him.

"We're going in through the back door!"

Chen Sheng took out a bare black iron mask from his arms and buckled it on his face.

Chen Dao nodded, waved his hand behind him, and then he and the 11 people behind him took out a black iron mask from their arms and put it on their faces.

Unlike the black iron masks with no patterns on Chen Sheng's faces, although the black iron masks on their faces are also black iron, they are painted with various animal patterns on their faces.

The black iron mask on Chen Dao's face is drawn with mouse patterns.

The black iron masks on the faces of 11 people behind him are sequentially painted with patterns of cow, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, and pig.

"Start now!"

After putting on the mask, Chen Sheng took out a dragon head stick carved from sandalwood from his waist again and held it in his hand: "I am the big dragon head!"

Chen Dao bowed his hands solemnly and said, "Virtual Sun Mouse pays respects to the big dragon head!"

"Meet the big dragon head!"

Many Youzhou Army veterans bowed their hands with a solemn expression.
