Tuan Chong is five and a half years old and started his fortune from farming.

Li Yunfeng was very unlucky. He stepped on a pile of fresh cow dung when he went out, which ruined the satin shoes he just changed today.

"Yunfeng, please take off your shoes and let me wash them with you."

Old Wang looked happy but not angry. He took a dustpan and a broom and collected the cow dung at the door.

This thing is great, you can fertilize it, dry it in the sun and cook it in a pot.

"No need to breastfeed. I'll just go and step on the river beach. You can do your thing."

Li Yunfeng shook his head. Satin shoes were expensive, and the silk threads on them couldn't withstand the force of Nai's hand washing.

This was a gift given to him by a young man from my classmate who was very wealthy and thanked him for helping with his studies.

There is only one pair, worth five or six taels!

damn it!

He had just put it on, but he stepped on cow dung!

"Oh, go home early and don't stay out too late."

Old Wang did not doubt that he was there and happily responded.

Here on the river beach, it is a sunny evening in midsummer.

"Moo moo~"

"Quack quack~"

"Puff puff~"

The ducks swam among the water plants on the river beach, spreading their wings from time to time. The water drops on their wings fell on the cows, causing ripples in the water.

"Xiaotian~ I heard that you are going to build a house, congratulations~"

"Thank you, Brother Aniu. When my house is built, I will invite you to come and sit at my house."

"Okay, my dad asked me to make you a new table. Don't worry, your table and stools have been handed over to us. Think of it as a housewarming gift for you~"

"Brother Aniu, thank you."

"Thank you. We all grew up together. You helped me cut down trees and hunt wild boars back then.

I didn't even thank you properly. "

"We are all good brothers. If you don't say thank you, then I won't be polite."

"Hey, I'm going to see how the mussels in my river beach are doing first. Let's talk another day."

"Uh-huh."

Li Xiaotian has always been very popular, he is willing to help others, and he is also very righteous.

Most people in the village have dealt with him to some extent, so they are very familiar with him.

Most people still wish Li Xiaotian the best of luck and will soon own his own house.

Although Li Yunfeng is a scholar, he looks very out of place wearing a scholar's robe, a blue gown, and a scholar's hairdo.

In addition, he claims to be a scholar and has a condescending and indifferent attitude towards the villagers, which makes people unhappy.

Along the way, few people took the initiative to say hello.

However, even the few people he greeted were not treated seriously by him.

Because in his eyes, these people are all mud-legged and will not be worthy of carrying his shoes in the future!

"Second uncle."

After walking for a long time, I found Li Xiaotian under the sun.

It may have been a long time since he heard this title. Li Xiaotian didn't react and continued to stare at the cows eating water and grass.

"Second uncle~"

"It's me, Yunfeng. Second uncle doesn't recognize me anymore, doesn't he recognize me either?"

Li Yunfeng shouted again, his voice filled with grievance and expectation.

It seems that I miss my second uncle very much.

"Oh, Mr. Li's son, don't you know? I'm not your Li family's biological flesh and blood, I'm just an orphan you picked up on the roadside."

Li Xiaotian turned around and saw his nephew who he once loved very much. His tone was very calm.

Li Yunfeng didn't expect that he would condescend to him and take the initiative to help the other party, but the other party would try hard and not give him any face.

He should have walked away, but thinking of the benefits, he hesitated and continued to say in a good temper: "Second uncle, no matter what, it is enough for me to recognize you as my second uncle."

Li Xiaotian is no longer the same Li Xiaotian who never fought back when hit or scolded.

He did business behind Brother Chang Fa, and his mind improved a lot.

He can clearly distinguish what is false love and what is intentional!

He used to be like a demon. For the so-called recognition and the so-called family affection, he tried to please the old Mr. Wang and worked hard to make money and give it to him.

Regarding Lao Wang's favorite grandson, his "eldest nephew", he has good intentions and meets all his requirements!

The results of it?

He feeds the dog with all his heart and has nothing left!

Now that life is finally getting better, he won't be stupid!

He will have a house.

Relatives, Brother Chang Fa’s whole family is his relatives!

He will also have a daughter-in-law!

He will have children in the future too!

He doesn't need his "eldest nephew" to support him in his old age after he becomes successful!

No matter what the other party wanted to get from him, there was no way!

"Li Yunfeng, you are from the Li family, but you have nothing to do with me. I don't need you to recognize me as your second uncle. I am not and I don't want to be."

Li Xiaotian patted the grass clippings on his butt, without a hint of joking in his tone.

Then he picked up the bullwhip and walked towards the cow in the grass, saying as he walked:

"Old man, are you full?"

"Moo moo~"

"Come home with me when you're full. Don't hang around here every day. People who don't know better will think you're a lazy cow!"

Therefore, we should criticize the mulberry trees and scold the pagoda trees, and we should criticize the cows and people.

The old man passing by bared his teeth and looked amused. This young man was not as honest as the rumors said.

When you encounter someone you can't deal with, you still know how to fight back.

"two--"

uncle.

Li Yunfeng's expression cracked, he was completely embarrassed!

He is not willing to give in, very unwilling!

Why did the second uncle who once had eyes for him suddenly change his mind!

Doesn’t the other party know?

Once he becomes a scholar or a scholar, there will be many benefits~

Just like that, giving up the benefits?

Don't you want to pay for him like you did before?

Li Yunfeng chased for a few steps and suddenly stepped on another soft pile of cow dung.

It's a bad start, let's fight another day!

But Li Xiaotian would not look back. He took the cow and walked back to the hay shed.

Just as he took out a worn-out comb to comb the cow's hair, a familiar voice sounded——

"Xiaotian, you are serving the cow again."

"Uncle Niu, it's you, sit down and talk."

Li Xiaotian moved a stool for the visitor, and then continued to groom the cow, muttering:

"This is the guy I eat with my brother. Of course I have to serve him well."

"It's a hot day, and mosquitoes and flies are easy to come out. I give the cows a bath. They feel comfortable and are happy to run around without cracking the whip when working."

"Why do you have time to come here today?"

Mr. Niu listened quietly and nodded in agreement.

Hearing the rhetorical question, he paused and said with a smile:

"I'm here to arrange a marriage for you."

"Ah? Marriage? Don't be joking. I have nothing and my family is broke. How can anyone be willing to marry their daughter to a pauper like me?"

Li Xiaotian was self-aware, so he only regarded it as a joke and did not dare to take it seriously.

"I'm not kidding, I have a granddaughter at home who is still in the harem because of her health condition. She is now twenty years old and is still waiting to be given birth."

Mr. Niu couldn't say enough about his granddaughter.

Li Xiaotian listened carefully to what the old man said in detail.

The more he listened, the more she sounded like a girl he knew.
