"Dad, this is really a martial arts secret book!"

After practicing a few moves, Tian Xiaochun stopped his stance, with an expression of great surprise in his eyes.

"Can you let me practice this martial arts secret book?"

"Okay." Tian Danian handed the book to Tian Xiaochun, "You read it first, and when we have time later, our whole family can play with it together."

"Dad, are you serious?"

The most incredible thing is wood.

He felt that the world was all fantasy! Dad actually asked them to follow the picture book that his little sister bought from a liar for five cents?

However, frightened by the look in his father's eyes, Mu Tou had no choice but to shut up silently.

Well, he has no right to speak in this family!

He still understood the principle of "big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimps". Here, he was not the eldest, the second, the third, or even the fourth or fifth. His only job was to be obedient and do as he was told.

I am the sixth child and have a hard life!

From that day on, Tian Xiaochun neglected sleep and food.

Don't get me wrong, it's not about learning knitting or needlework, or learning cooking, but practicing martial arts.

With the practice of each move and each style, Tian Xiaochun felt that her skills improved by leaps and bounds. Every day she fell asleep with the martial arts secret book in her hands.

A few days later, when she went to Tian Danian to compete with him again, Tian Danian was shocked to find that his eldest daughter's skills had made a qualitative leap.

In the past, it was a match between a few ordinary people, and they should have been able to end up in a draw, or at least not suffer any loss.

Now, even if they are facing a dozen ordinary people, they can be easily controlled.

Even if I meet someone with some skills, I won't be defeated.

Therefore, Tian Danian decided that all the family members, young and old, should join in and learn this martial arts secret book.

Hanhan is another person I'm interested in besides Tian Xiaochun.

It turned out that he was chasing after Tian Xiaoman every day, repeating that he wanted to protect Tian Xiaoman or something like that, and he couldn't be driven away.

Now, he follows Tian Xiaochun all day long and has learned the ways of the village kids, calling her "Sister Xiaochun" all the time, just to learn the moves in the martial arts secret book from Tian Xiaochun.

The two of them also have a companion, learning from each other and improving each other.

It’s just that the whole family is learning martial arts secrets, which makes it hard for Wang, Tian Xiaoman and Mu Tou.

Tian Danian and Shitou could still accept it, and practiced the moves together every day as a way to keep fit.

Wang, Mu Tou and Tian Xiaoman all had their own grievances. One of them really didn't like practicing and felt he was suffering; one of them had no interest in practicing martial arts; as for the other one, he was simply too lazy to move and practice.

However, Tian Xiaoman couldn't find any excuse. In a word, the small arms are no match for the big arms.

The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was already the eighth day of the second lunar month. The grass at the foot of the mountain had begun to sprout green leaves, and the peach blossoms in Third Grandpa's yard had also formed buds. The people in Tianjia Village had already replaced their heavy cotton-padded clothes with more convenient padded jackets.

Mu Tou quickly ran into the yard and saw Wang opening the door and cooking in the kitchen. He said happily, "Mom, I've learned a lot today. Brother Tiechui's family is really big."

Today is the day when Tian Tiechui from Tianjia Village gets married.

Since almost every household in Tianjia Village is related, Tian Danian took his sons to help early in the morning, and the family only returned after having the banquet.

Afraid that the master would be hungry during the next few nights, Wang thought of preparing some food to fill the master's stomach for the next few nights.

Uncle Tian Danian and his friends haven't come back yet. They are waiting for the banquet to be over so they can help clean up the tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans.

Tian Xiaoman's mother and her friends didn't eat much. There were eight or nine of them sitting at a large table, and every time a dish was served, it was almost snatched up by everyone.

If you were slower, you wouldn't be able to eat the meat. There were only a few dishes with meat to begin with, and with such a rush, there was almost nothing left of each dish.

Wang saw all these situations, so it was necessary to get some food.

Seeing Mu Tou's face full of interest, Wang asked, "What strange thing did you see? You are so noisy. You are only fourteen years old, but you don't know how to be steady. When your elder brother was your age, he was already working in a shop. He is not like you who is so impetuous and restless."

Mu Tou stuck out his tongue. He didn't care about his mother's complaints.

His mother is famous for having a sharp tongue but a soft heart. If he takes it seriously, then that would be what his mother wished for.

"I was watching Brother Tiechui getting married, what a lively party! By the way, Mom, my eldest brother is sixteen years old too, should we also arrange a wedding for him? If we can hold one at home, it will be lively and interesting."

The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Wang thought to herself, yes, she had forgotten about it these days.

The eldest son is already sixteen years old, and it is time for him to get married. In the village, people as old as Shitou basically get engaged every new year, and the bride will be brought home by the end of the year at the latest. By next year, she may become a grandmother.

However, adding a new member to the family is a big deal and should be done with extreme caution.

Wang felt upset when she thought about her eldest son's previous marriage. She had to be careful when arranging a marriage for her son this time.

Alas, as the old saying goes, "If a family has a daughter, hundreds of families will want her." If there is a good young man, hundreds of families will also want him. I just don't know if my eldest son can find a good marriage.

Wang thought of what her husband had said before and replied, "Your eldest brother's marriage will have to wait a while. Your father said that in ten days or half a month, we will start to build a house."

"Build a house? Really?"

Wang glanced at her son and said, "Do you want to live next door forever? When you get married and have children in the future, will you also live in the Zhao family?"

Mu Toutou shook his head like a rattle. Although he got along very well with Grandpa Zhao and Zhao Xiaoshu, it was not his home no matter how good it was. It was still more comfortable to live in his own home.

There is no place like home, no place like home!

"Hehe——Mom, after we build our house, can you give me a separate room to live in? Look at the little tree——"

"What's wrong with Xiaoshu? Xiaoshu is a scholar, so of course he needs a separate room. Studying requires quietness. And you, a little brat, want a room of your own?"

Mu Tou's face turned red after being told that, but he still shamelessly pestered Wang, wanting a room of his own.

Wang spat at her son and said, "Even if you don't tell me, your father and I have already thought of it. Not only you, but also your eldest brother and Hanhan, they all have to have their own room."

Now that Wang has money in his hands, he can dare to think, do and say anything!

It's just a farmhouse, how much money can it cost? Compared with the family's current wealth, it's just a drop in the bucket.

Her daughter said that if the current situation was not bad and there were not so many people fleeing famine in the south, they would probably all buy a big house in the capital to live in, so that she could show off her style as a lady of the house.

However, Wang knew that she was not born to enjoy a good life, so why did she pretend to be a noble lady? She would feel uncomfortable if she didn't work for a day.

As for the terms "madam" and "maid", just forget about them.

Wang never could have imagined that she had only chatted with her youngest son for a while, but a few days later, a matchmaker really came to her door.
