Infinite Gate: I Became a Martial Saint from Another World
Chapter 42 Family
After entering Hongmian Village, Zhou Hong rode his horse towards Manager Yao's house and arrived there soon.
Zhou Hong and the other man dismounted, and Manager Yao walked toward the front door of the house. He pushed the door open and shouted, "Cheng'er, Jinxia, I'm back!"
"Husband, you are back!"
A middle-aged woman heard Manager Yao's voice, she walked out of the house and said in surprise.
She is Manager Yao’s wife, Zhen Jinxia.
Manager Yao looked behind Zhen Jinxia and found that his son Yao Cheng was not there. He frowned and asked, "Where is Cheng'er?"
"Cheng'er...he went to play with his friends at school."
Yao Cheng is the son of Manager Yao. Since Manager Yao married and had children late, Yao Cheng is only sixteen years old now.
Hearing this, Manager Yao said angrily, "Humph! He only knows how to play every day. If only he were this serious about his studies and martial arts!"
"Husband, Cheng'er is just a child now. It's normal for him to be playful. Don't be angry."
After hearing what Zhen Jinxia said, Manager Yao said, "You, you always spoil him. With the way he is now, if we are gone one day, what will he do?"
"this..."
After hearing what Manager Yao said, Zhen Jinxia didn't know what to say. Then, he saw Zhou Hong and changed the subject: "Hey? This little brother is..."
Hearing Zhen Jinxia's words, Zhou Hong quickly responded: "Hello, Madam. My name is Zhou Hong, and I'm a friend of Manager Yao."
"Yes, Young Master Zhou is my friend, and he is here to help us this time."
"Jinxia, go and ask the servants to prepare the meal. I want to have a drink with Young Master Zhou!"
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Having said that, Zhen Jinxia asked the servants to prepare the meal.
After a while, the wine and food were served on the table. Just as Zhou Hong and Manager Yao were about to eat, Manager Yao's son Yao Cheng came back.
When Yao Cheng saw Manager Yao and Zhou Hong, he said excitedly, "Wow! Dad, I didn't expect you to bring guests here today!"
Then, he saw a table full of food and wine, so he walked to the table, found a chair and sat down, and said, "I'm hungry from playing, let me eat something first."
After saying that, he reached out to take a pancake. Suddenly, Manager Yao slammed his chopsticks hard on the back of Yao Cheng's hand.
"Ouch! Dad, what are you doing? I'm hungry!"
After hearing what Yao Cheng said, Manager Yao angrily said, "You still feel hungry? All you do every day is hang out with your bad friends! Look at what you have become now!!"
Hearing Manager Yao's roar, Yao Cheng said unconvincedly: "We are just going out to play, why are you so angry?"
"It seems that you are still not convinced? Then let me ask you, how are your homework and martial arts training going?"
Hearing Manager Yao's question, Yao Cheng said without confidence: "I...I haven't finished it yet."
Hearing this, Manager Yao said angrily, "See? You only know how to play! Let me tell you, many people who want to practice martial arts have gone through so much hardship, but you don't know how to cherish such a precious opportunity. If you can't enter the physical body realm in the future, do you think you can still have the life you have now?"
Hearing what Manager Yao said, Yao Cheng lowered his head and whispered, "But practicing martial arts is really too hard!"
"It's hard, so what? Do you think strength comes for free? If you can't endure this hardship, you will only be stuck at the bottom of society for the rest of your life!"
After finishing speaking, Manager Yao looked at Yao Cheng who lowered his head, sighed, and said, "Let's eat!"
Afterwards, along with Zhen Jinxia, the four people at the table started eating.
