This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 16 Peerless Genius
Maid?

Luo Zijun was a little confused. What was the purpose of buying a maid?
Besides, this little girl looks... so small.

Also, if the maid sleeps in his room, then where does he sleep?
Luo Jiaorong said: "Zijun, you are a scholar now, so you should have your own maid. Look around, which family doesn't have a maid? Even your Aunt Du's family next door has one."

Then she said earnestly, "I didn't buy it before, not because I was afraid of spending money, but because I thought you were still young and I could still take care of you. Now that you have grown up and passed the exam to become a scholar, you will go to the academy to study. If you don't have a maid to take care of you, you will be laughed at by others."

Li Zhengshan also nodded and said, "Scholars all have maids and book boys. Although our family is poor, we can't be too shabby."

Luo Zijun said: "Sister and brother-in-law, I really don't need a maid."

He knows his family's situation better than anyone else.

It would definitely cost a lot of money to buy a maid.

Moreover, there is suddenly one more person in the family, and we have to spend more money on food and drink.

The money my brother-in-law has is definitely not enough.

Besides, he still has to go to college, which will cost a lot of money.

"Why not? She can help you with washing clothes, folding quilts, grinding ink, pouring tea, and other odd jobs. It can save you a lot of time."

Luo Jiaorong had obviously made up her mind.

However, she did not tell her brother about the most important function, for fear that she would embarrass her brother.

"Okay, it's decided. My sister has already bought it, do we really need to send her back?"

As soon as these words came out, the skinny girl named Xiaohuan knelt on the ground in fear, begging in a trembling voice: "Master, Madam, Master, please don't send me back...I don't want to go back..."

Seeing this, Luo Jiaorong pulled Luo Zijun aside and whispered, "This little girl is very pitiful. A family of seven people in her family all starved to death, and she is the only one left. Look at her, how hungry she is? When she came back tonight, she ate five steamed buns in a row and almost choked to death. If we keep her, it can be regarded as saving her life. If you drive her away, it is hard to say whether she can survive."

At this time, Xiao Huan cried and said, "My lord, I can wash clothes and cook, make tea and grind ink, and I can learn anything. I am willing to work like a cow and a horse for you. Please, please keep me..."

Li Zhengshan said from the side: "Look, what a good little girl, Zijun, just accept her."

Luo Zijun looked helpless. Before he could say anything, Luo Jiaorong waved her hand and said, "I am the master of this family. I have the final say! Who dares to resist? Xiaohuan, go to the kitchen and boil some water!"

Luo Zijun: “…”

Xiaohuan quickly agreed, wiped her tears, got up and went to the kitchen.

"Zijun, have you eaten?"

Li Zhengshan asked.

Luo Zijun nodded.

He suddenly remembered that he still had something to ask his brother-in-law about cultivation.

"Brother-in-law, let's go to the backyard. I have something to ask you."

"What can't you say in front of your sister?"

Luo Jiaorong suddenly felt unhappy.

Luo Zijun said: "You can ask elder sister, do you know how to practice the inner strength method?"

Luo Jiaorong: "..."

Li Zhengshan laughed loudly and waved his hand, saying, "Zijun, let's go to the backyard."

"Tsk, you're the only ones who understand!"

Luo Jiaorong pouted and immediately reminded: "Zijun, take a bath and go to bed early. Studying is important for you now. It's okay to practice martial arts occasionally. Don't hurt your body. You are a scholar now."

"What a long shot!"

Li Zhengshan muttered something, but only he could hear it.

After the two of them went to the backyard, Luo Jiaorong immediately went to the kitchen, took Xiaohuan's hand, and whispered: "Xiaohuan, take a bath later, and sleep in the same room with Zijun tonight. Don't worry, this will be your home from now on, and no one can drive you away."

The little maid lowered her head, her face flushed, and uttered a low "hmm".

backyard.

Luo Zijun asked, "Brother-in-law, when you were teaching me the inner skills, what did you mean by the sense of Qi? How do you get started?" Li Zhengshan waved his hand and said, "Zijun, you are too impatient. It has only been a few days. Didn't brother-in-law say that even for a very talented warrior, it would take at least half a month to a month to capture the sense of Qi? And they all started when they were children. As for you, it will probably take at least half a year, and you will need to practice every day."

He advised again: "Don't worry, your most urgent task now is to study. As for this inner strength method, you can practice it when you have time, but don't take it too seriously. Even if you can't get started, it's okay."

Luo Zijun said: "Brother-in-law, I just want to know how to enter the door."

Li Zhengshan smiled and patted his shoulder, then walked forward a few steps, came to a wooden stake, took a deep breath, and suddenly punched.

"boom!"

The fist hit the wooden stake, and the thick stake suddenly cracked.

Li Zhengshan put away his fist, blew on it, and said with some pride: "Did you see that? My brother-in-law only used one percent of his strength. When you can crack wood with your fist without any damage to your fist, that's the entry level."

"This entry-level punch, if it hits a person, can even break bones."

After a pause, he continued, "To be specific, after you sense the Qi, you absorb it into your body and turn it into your own internal force. Then you release the internal force to generate greater power. This is the entry point."

"Zijun, this process is not simple. Just to capture the aura, you need... huh? What are you doing? Don't, you'll get hurt!"

As Li Zhengshan was speaking, Luo Zijun had already followed his example and came to the wooden stake. He then took a deep breath and punched out suddenly.

"boom!"

The wooden stake, which had only a crack, suddenly split apart with a "crack".

Li Zhengshan opened his mouth wide: "..."

Luo Zijun walked to another wooden stake nearby and punched it again.

"boom!"

The new wooden stake was cracked by a punch!
"Brother-in-law, should I be getting started?"

Luo Zijun put away his fist, blew on it like him, stroked it again, frowned and said, "But it hurts."

Li Zhengshan opened his mouth and was stunned for a few seconds. Suddenly, he grabbed him and jumped excitedly, shouting, "Fuck!!!"

Luo Zijun: “…”

Luo Jiaorong rushed over upon hearing the news and angrily said, "Li Zhengshan! What are you yelling about? Who told you to swear in front of Zijun?"

Li Zhengshan hugged Luo Zijun and said excitedly: "Madam, our Zijun is a genius! A martial arts genius!"

As he spoke, he hugged and kissed her.

Luo Zijun quickly covered his mouth with his hand and said with disgust: "Brother-in-law, calm down!"

Li Zhengshan laughed excitedly and couldn't calm down at all.

Luo Jiaorong was confused.

I've been married to this guy for many years, but this is the first time I've seen him so excited.

"Li Zhengshan! Let go of my Zijun!"

Luo Jiaorong saw that he was in a very strange state, so she quickly went over to pry his hands apart and asked, "What's going on?"

Li Zhengshan laughed loudly: "Madam! Our Zijun is a peerless martial arts genius! Don't let him study anymore, send him to the military officer to practice martial arts! He will definitely be able to pass the martial arts exam in the future!"

The siblings looked at each other.

Li Zhengshan calmed down a little, but he was still very excited: "Even for a martial arts genius with extremely high talent, it takes about a month to go from knowing nothing to catching the feeling of Qi. It takes at least three months to generate internal force and finally release it..."

"Madam, guess how long did it take for our Zijun to complete these processes?"

Luo Jiaorong shook her head in confusion.

Li Zhengshan raised three fingers, his face flushed, his voice trembling with excitement: "Three days! Our Zijun took three days! I just taught him the inner strength method three days ago! Hahahaha... genius! An unparalleled genius!"

"Our Zijun is an unrivaled genius!"
