Liu Shan could only laugh awkwardly as he stepped forward, turning his head to the side, and intentionally explaining, "You're really something, it's the highest honor in the world of men."
Li Wanqing was stunned for a moment, then quickly walked forward.
Liu Shan subconsciously took two steps back.
Li Wanqing immediately retorted angrily, "Why...why are you hiding? Do you think I'm that fierce?"
Thinking of the waist knife that was still lying on the bed, Liu Shan nodded. "It's very fierce."
Seeing this, Li Wanqing became even angrier, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth off!"
After saying that, as if to prove that she had the ability to tear her mouth apart, Li Wanqing went to the spot where Liu Shan had jumped earlier, and with a light leap, plucked the tender leaf from the top of her head.
hiss!
Liu Shan gasped. That incredible jumping ability, that damned hang time, and that exhilarating sway after landing... it was impossible to look away!
Li Wanqing handed the tender leaf to Liu Shan with a disdainful look, feigning ignorance as she asked, "Am I that good?"
Liu Shan nodded repeatedly and gave a thumbs-up, sincerely praising, "Hmm, you're really good."
Seeing that the man was so sensible, a hint of arrogance appeared on Li Wanqing's face.
Liu Shan sighed inwardly, realizing that his body was too ordinary and couldn't compare to his previous life at all.
While there's nothing wrong with being an ordinary person, in ancient times when medical technology was extremely backward, without a strong physique, one might suddenly die unexpectedly one day.
So... it's time to get fit!
The Li residence was a general's mansion, and it had everything from stone locks and stone weights to stone mills and bronze tripods, which saved the trouble of purchasing equipment.
Then I can find a master to learn some martial arts. If there are strong people like the Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, and Central Divine in the martial arts world, then I can fulfill my childhood dream of flying over rooftops and scaling walls.
……
After parting ways with Li Wanqing, Liu Shan ate an apple he had taken from the kitchen and unknowingly went to the study.
Li Polu, true to his name, was both rugged and ruthless. It's truly baffling how he could have fathered Li Wanqing, a daughter with angelic beauty.
At this moment, in the antique-style study, Li Polu stood behind the desk, holding a brush, practicing calligraphy.
On the spotless Xuan paper, several large characters in wild cursive script were written in a crooked and uneven manner.
It might have some aesthetic appeal, but Liu Shan couldn't appreciate it.
However, he understood the principle of "not speaking while eating or sleeping," so he simply watched Li Polu wield his brush and write.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Polu slammed his brush down on the desk, then carefully picked up the Xuan paper and blew on it repeatedly.
After boasting for a while, he smiled smugly at Liu Shan and said, "My dear son-in-law, what do you think? My learning may not be as good as yours, but in Cangzhou, my calligraphy is priceless!"
Liu Shan looked over and tried to make out what was going on for a few seconds.
After recognizing the four large, wildly cursive characters on the rice paper, he read them aloud in a low voice: "To hell with it."
Then, he gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Father-in-law is indeed a refined person. Every stroke of your brush exudes a unique charm, which is worthy of my learning."
However, Liu Shan noticed that Li Polu in front of him had a resentful expression and was staring straight at him.
"I fucking wrote 'Spring Pond's Enchanting Charm'! Liu Shan, you've gone too far!"
It seems the old man has lost his composure.
To appease his father-in-law, who had just given him a reward, Liu Shan forced a smile and said, "Father-in-law, I know you're angry, but please don't be. Why don't you write another one, and I'll guess again?"
Guess?
Li Polu immediately felt that he had been severely offended!
He glared and said, "My dear son-in-law, go tell the kitchen to stew a turtle for dinner to nourish you. Tonight, put in extra effort with Wanqing; I want to hold my grandson soon."
"Cough...cough!"
Liu Shan was taken aback by his father-in-law's bold and daring words. He could tell that his father-in-law was serious and genuinely wanted to hold his grandson.
He really didn't dare to put in too much effort on Li Wanqing!
Don't try to steal a kiss and end up cutting off your manhood!
Seeing Liu Shan's troubled expression, Li Polu couldn't help but secretly rejoice. How could he not know his daughter's temperament?
But... as he laughed, a bitter feeling crept into his heart. His daughter was becoming more and more disobedient as she grew older, and she didn't even like the son-in-law he had helped her find.
……
A moment later, Liu Shan quietly slipped out of the Li residence through the back door.
With money and free time, one naturally wants to go out and broaden one's horizons.
Of course, the main reason was to temporarily escape my father-in-law's expectant gaze...
This world is similar to ancient China. The Xia Dynasty has been established for three hundred years and is in the process of transitioning from prosperity to decline. Internal conflicts are becoming increasingly acute, and neighboring countries are eyeing it covetously.
However, this is not something Liu Shan should worry about. What he should do now is enjoy this moment of leisure.
The commercial street was bustling with activity. Vendors pushed carts and carried loads on shoulder poles, their shouts rising and falling, creating a lively and vibrant atmosphere.
At present, the economy of the Xia Dynasty is relatively stable. The exchange rate between silver and copper coins is maintained at one tael of silver to one thousand coins, and one thousand coins is also called one string of coins.
For ordinary people, twenty coins a day is enough to eat their fill.
Liu Shan had twenty taels of silver in his pocket as a reward for serving tea, but he still didn't dare to spend it at a fancy restaurant. Instead, he obediently found a small shop and happily ordered a large bowl of meat wontons.
In the original owner's memory, this wonton shop was known for its delicious food and affordable prices.
Before long, Liu Shan was full, but there was still a little bit of wonton left in his bowl.
He couldn't help but sigh. His body was a bit too thin; he really needed to eat more.
In that case, I can only apologize to Brother Wang Ba.
Just then, a slightly cold voice suddenly rang out: "Shopkeeper, can I have a bowl of meat wontons on credit?"
The boss refused without even thinking, "Sorry, we're a small business and we don't offer credit."
The cold voice paused slightly, then pleaded in an even lower voice, "Shopkeeper, to be honest, my sister is pure and kind. She has given all her travel money to help others along the way, so we are now penniless and have not eaten for two days."
"I can still endure it, but my younger sister is still young. If she doesn't eat something soon, she might get sick from hunger. Could you please help me out? I will repay you a hundredfold in the future."
Liu Shan looked up and saw two girls, one tall and one short, standing prettily at the shop entrance.
The young girl was eighteen or nineteen years old. Although she was dressed simply, her waist-length hair fluttered in the wind, making her look dashing and spirited.
The little girl next to her was only eleven or twelve years old, with her hair in two buns. Her pure white silk dress was dark and dirty, obviously not washed for a long time.
She clutched the hem of her clothes tightly in her small hands, her gaze frequently falling on the people enjoying the delicious wontons, her eyes filled with envy and longing.
