Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 44

At three o'clock in the morning, the carriage stopped at the side door of the courtyard.

This time Wen Shu kept an eye out, and lifted the curtain to take a look at the plaque hanging above the closed vermilion lacquer gate when the carriage lightly passed the gate.

Liyuan?

Why is it called Liyuan? She didn't see any pear trees in it either.

While thinking about it, the carriage had already stopped at the side door. Wen Shu got out of the car and followed Lu Xi through the familiar side door. In front of the flower hall, Mr. Lu, who was a little lazy yesterday, returned to his usual neatness and seriousness. He was still wearing a red official uniform.

Standing next to him was a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a burly figure but a serious face. Seeing the two of them coming in, his eyes lingered on Wen Shu for a while.

"This is Master Liu, and he will be responsible for teaching you boxing and kicking kung fu from now on." Lu Yuancheng pointed to the man and introduced it to Wen Shu.

Wen Shu made a clasping salute to Master Liu, and Master Liu nodded in return.

"From today until the Lantern Festival in the next year, one hour a day, if the little lady wants to complete the task smoothly, I hope she will take it seriously."

He didn't need to say this, Wen Shu would do his best, after all, it was about life and money, she nodded slightly, expressing that she would be serious.

After explaining it himself, Lu Yuancheng went to the Yamen. Before leaving, he told Lu Xi to watch here and make arrangements for any needs.

As soon as he left, that master Liu said: "I heard from Mr. Lu that the little lady's strength is different from ordinary people. I wonder if I can show it to you?"

Lu Xi was also curious all the time, and after hearing the words, he looked over.

Wen Shu nodded, looked around, and walked towards the stone table not far away. The stone table was not too big, and there were four stone benches around it. She didn't know how heavy the square stone table was, but she wanted to try it.

Lu Xi watched her walk towards the stone table, startled, and said in his heart that he couldn't do it. That stone table weighed two hundred catties, and even a big man like him couldn't lift it up. .

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Wen Shu saw that Wen Shu had already walked to the edge of the table, clasped the edge of the table with both hands and lifted it vigorously, and the stone table left the ground under his widened eyes.

A look of amazement flashed in Master Liu's eyes beside him. When Mr. Lu told him earlier, he still didn't believe it. He felt that no matter how strong a girl could be, she had to agree because of her status.

But now it seems that Mr. Lu is not exaggerating, but rather humble. Although Wen Shu didn't hold on for long and put down the stone table, he also recognized this temporary disciple.

"I wonder if Master Liu is still satisfied?" Wen Shu turned around, panting slightly.

There was two points of approval on Master Liu's face, and his expression softened a bit, "Not bad, not bad, the little lady is very talented, and she is really suitable to learn my Gale Palm."

"Thank you, master." Wen Shu immediately changed her name obediently.

The smile on Master Liu's face was even bigger: "I just hope you don't complain about suffering and tiredness."

"Master devoted himself to teaching, Wen Shu is very grateful, how dare you say that you are tired."

"Okay, it's getting late, let's start."

Time is tight and the task is heavy. In order to let her learn as many self-defense moves as possible within a month, Master Liu did not let Wen Shu start with the basic skills of Zhamabu, but directly practiced a set in front of her. Gale Palm, and then asked Wen Shu how much he remembered.

Wen Shu tried hard to recall his movements, and then made a few gestures. Master Liu's eyes lit up after watching it. He didn't expect that this newly recruited disciple not only had great strength, but also had a strong memory. He could remember it after only watching it once. Seventy percent of the moves.

A feeling of joy at seeing Lie came up, and he said repeatedly: "Okay, you can type it again and show me."

Wen Shu nodded, trying to recall what she had seen before, her body and hands gestured continuously, but she was a novice after all, although her moves were correct, they were limp and empty, without any power.

Master Liu was not in a hurry and watched quietly, until she finished typing, then walked over to point out the mistakes and explain them one by one.

Wen Shu listened attentively, and remembered it in her heart, and then made constant adjustments according to the strength and speed of the palms that Master Liu said.

An hour later, when Lu Xi sent her back, her arms were so sore that she could barely lift them up. After climbing into the carriage, she collapsed in the carriage.

Outside, Lu Xi was still thinking about the shocking scene before, and still couldn't help asking: "Is the strength of the little lady innate? Why is she stronger than ordinary men?"

Naturally, of course!She was about to answer, but she changed her tone after thinking about it: "Half born, half acquired."

Lu Xi became interested when he heard it: "What kind of acquired method, does it depend on practice?"

"That's not it."

"The day after tomorrow that little lady said?" Lu Xi's curiosity was aroused.

Wen Shu sighed: "Forget it, you won't believe me if I tell you."

"If you don't tell me, little lady, how do you know I won't believe it?"

Wen Shu paused and said, "I want to say that I became like this after eating a few fruits, do you believe it?"

How many fruits?

Lu Xi frowned, the little lady didn't want to reveal it, forget it, it wasn't what he should have asked, so she shut up and didn't speak.

See, she knew it would happen, Wen Shu closed her eyes.

When she got home, her father was still busy with the front work. Wen Shu, who had sore hands, didn't even think about going into the iron box after returning to the room. After all, his hands are weak now. If he goes in and encounters danger, he will be sent to death. Forget it, I still feel at ease Let's lie down.

After lying down for about two quarters of an hour, and seeing that it was almost noon, she got up to cook again, but just before going out, she went behind the bed and touched a fruit to eat.

Moving the stone table today, she can feel that her strength has increased a little. Although it is not obvious, she still feels a little difference after carrying it every day. It seems that the fruit that can increase strength is really useful.

When eating at noon, Wen Tai asked her where she had been at noon. Wen Shu didn't dare to say that she went to learn martial arts, but only said that she went to play with Wang Ling.

Wen Tai didn't care too much when he heard it. Since he was a child, he basically treated Wen Shu as a free agent. As long as she can go home on time to eat and sleep every day, he basically doesn't care about other things. In fact, he is busy with his livelihood and cares nothing.

In the afternoon, Wen Shu went to Wang Ling's house to tell him that he couldn't go to Daxiangguo Temple tomorrow. Wang Ling hurriedly asked what was wrong?
The two had played together since childhood, and since she also knew about the IOU, Wen Shu told the truth.

Wang Ling said happily after hearing this: "Good thing, if you say this, you will be even better in the future!"

"I don't know if it's serious or not. I just want to save my life and pay off the debt smoothly." Wen Shu showed a wry smile on his face: "You don't know, my hands are shaking when I eat delicious dishes at noon. My dad didn't find out. By the way, my dad doesn't know about it yet, so don't let it slip."

"Don't worry, I'm tight-lipped, and I promise not to leak anything." Wang Ling raised her hand to promise, and then said, "According to what you said, this trip is really dangerous."

"Who knows, in short, it is better to be prepared to face danger at any time than to be unable to react when danger comes suddenly."

Wang Ling nodded approvingly, "You're right, it's always good to be prepared." Halfway through speaking, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you something."

"What?" Seeing her turn around and rush to search in front of the cabinet, Wen Shu was a little curious.
