Chapter 173 Old Mrs. Wang Goes on a Long Trip
The Yang family private school usually lasts all day. In the morning, students attend for an hour and a half, then go home for lunch, and return to the school for another two hours at the beginning of the afternoon. The Wang family's children also need to learn martial arts from Chi Jia, so they specifically asked the teacher at the Yang family private school to set aside an extra half hour each day for martial arts practice.

As for Aoki Academy and others, they also have courses on gentlemanly conduct.

The number of teachers in the school was limited, and although the teaching of the Six Arts of the Gentleman was not particularly outstanding, none of them were neglected.

After completing the course, it's also effective to have Chi Jia give you some extra lessons.

After finishing his lesson on speech today, Master Yang, as usual, instructed his students to practice repeatedly and memorize the texts.

Little Ayu answered the loudest: "I know, Master!"

Seeing the little guy's energetic appearance, even the meticulous Master Yang couldn't help but stroke his beard and smile.

What teacher wouldn't like such a clever and well-behaved child?

"Ayu, you must practice hard. Your teacher has high hopes for you."

[The Master thinks you are great.] (Translated by Tuanzi)

Little Ayu exclaimed loudly, "Yes! Ayu will practice hard!"

Master Yang: "Hmm?"

Little Ayu gave a soft "Ah," patted her mouth, and said again, "Yes! I'll practice hard!"

Confucius said that one should not call oneself inappropriately, as it is not dignified.

She's going to be someone who carries heavy loads.

Although she didn't quite understand why it had to be heavy, wasn't it better to be light?
She pinched her own arm; maybe she was just too thin.

When you get home, eat more, gain weight, and then you won't have to "pretend" anymore!

[...] No problem.

After saying goodbye to Master Yang, Xiao Ayu went to Qin Huai's house with Wang Wulang and Wang Liulang.

The courtyard in front of Qin Huai's house has been transformed into a training ground, just like the house in Hujia Village.

They have now passed the most troublesome stage of squatting in the horse stance. They only need to squat in the horse stance for 15 minutes a day, and then do other basic movements.

Little Ayu also wanted to learn, and everyone was worried that she wouldn't be able to stick with it, but she turned out to be the one with the strongest willpower.

Even Chi Jia was secretly surprised. If it weren't for the circumstances, he would have really wanted to take Xiao A Yu as his disciple.

Qin Huai's body has only recovered, but the spiritual energy he lost needs to be replenished slowly. The same goes for Xiao Ayu. However, Xiao Ayu has a bowl of spiritual spring water every day and a Wanling Sacred Fruit every few days to nourish her, so her body is always in the best condition.

In just three months, she had already grown taller. Although she still looked like a two-year-old girl, her cheeks had become plump and her physical condition was exceptionally good.

To others, it was a two-year-old girl who could squat in a horse stance with great skill, but other children, including twelve- or thirteen-year-old Wang Sanlang and Wang Silang, did not have the same perseverance as Xiao Ayu.

"Even when squatting in a horse stance, you must concentrate your mind and calm your breath, focusing your energy in your dantian. Don't think it's just a movement; it's the foundation of martial arts, and you must not slack off!" Red Armor walked past a group of kids squatting in a horse stance. Although his tone wasn't stern, it still sent chills down the kids' spines.

When Mr. Chi was training them, he seemed like a different person.

In fact, Chi Jia didn't have high requirements for the children. When he trained his men, they had to squat in horse stance for three hours every day, run for an hour, then whip ten thousand times and stick ten thousand times. Basically, they practiced every day as soon as they opened their eyes.

Qin Huai was the one who studied exceptionally hard.

He forced Chi Jia to train him as a bodyguard, requiring him to master the movements and undergo sufficient training intensity.

We cannot be careless at all.

"Alright, take a break." Seeing that Qin Huai's forehead was sweating and his whole body was trembling slightly, Chi Jia was worried that he couldn't take it, so he immediately called a halt.

But Qin Huai remained squatting.

Chi Jia went to the kitchen and brought out two bowls of stewed white fungus porridge. He gave one bowl to Xiao Ayu and kept the other for Qin Huai.

The other children watched longingly.

Red Armor: "There's more in the kitchen, go get it yourselves. Do you want me to bring it to you?"

"No need, no need, we'll drink it ourselves!" Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang said in unison.

After saying that, they rushed to the front. Then Wang Wulang also ran off.

Wang Erlang thought that since he was the second brother, he couldn't be so rude, so he walked slowly.

Wang Sanlang and Wang Silang followed closely behind.

Little Ayu got her bowl, but instead of drinking it, she ran to Qin Huai's side.

"Brother Ayou, time for some white fungus porridge!" Little Ayu said, tilting her head up.

Qin Huai: "You drink it yourself, I'll drink it later."

Not wanting Xiao Ayu to see his disheveled state, Qin Huai pretended not to care and closed his eyes slightly.

After waiting for a while and hearing no movement, Qin Huai opened his eyes again.

But he found that Xiao Ayu hadn't left; instead, she was squatting next to him with her little hand outstretched.

She seemed ready to stand by him through thick and thin.

Qin Huai, who was struggling to keep going, found it amusing when he saw her like this: "You're still young, don't tire yourself out."

“But Ayu—” Little Ayu shook her head, “But I want to be like Brother Ayou.”

Qin Huai: "...You can be like your brothers, you don't have to be like me."

I just want to grow up quickly.

"The Master said that when we see something salty, we should eat together, and when we see something not salty, we should think about why it's not salty." Little Ayu said it with great conviction. "Brother Ayou is salty, but the other brothers aren't salty. I want to be like Brother Ayou!"

[The meaning of "treasure" is to emulate the virtuous when you see them, and to reflect on your own shortcomings when you see the unvirtuous.]

What does it taste like? It's salty!

Is this how it's translated today?

Qin Huai: “…”

Fearing she might get tired, Qin Huai simply stood up, and Xiao Ayu followed suit.

He took Xiao Ayu's hand, led her to wash her hands first, and then they went to drink white fungus porridge together.

Red Armor, watching from the side, smiled and smiled.

He knew there was no need to persuade her; Miss Ayu would naturally convince him.

Being small has its advantages.

With her innocent and pure heart, it's hard for the young master to refuse her.

After drinking the white fungus porridge and resting for a while, Chi Jia led them in practicing hand movements.

An hour passed quickly, and everyone returned to Old Wang's house after finishing their lessons.

The next day, Old Mrs. Wang decided to take Doctor Xue with her to Zhou Chuchu's house.

Zhou Chuchu's home is in the neighboring Linhu County, which is more than 200 miles away from Nanhe Town, and it will take a lot of time to travel there.

Old Wang's family was very worried about the old lady going out alone. Old Wang wanted to go with her, but Old Wang stopped him.

Grandma Wang advised him, "There needs to be someone in charge of the family. Those kids are just getting older but not smarter. Fourth Brother isn't home either, and Ayu is still young. You have to keep an eye on things."

Old Wang, however, didn't care: "Compared to them, I'm more worried about you."

“What do I have to worry about? It’s not like I’ve never been on a long trip before. There’s no need to worry. If all goes well, I can be back in less than a month,” said Old Mrs. Wang. “If it weren’t for the fact that only I can do this, I wouldn’t want to go out at this time. But things can change in the long run, so I have to go and see what’s going on with Manager Zhou now.”

When it comes to persuasion skills, Old Wang was no match for Old Mrs. Wang and could only watch helplessly as she left.

Almost immediately after Old Mrs. Wang left, someone went to Hu Family Village looking for members of the Wang family.
