Jiang Lingxin treated Xiao Shen Guan very strictly. He was a master for the first time and had no experience. He also subconsciously learned how his master treated him in the past and taught Shen Guan.

During the period of practicing martial arts, Xiao Shen Guan often couldn't sleep all night because of the swelling and pain in his wrist, and kept his eyes open looking at the beams until dawn.Sometimes Maosi would visit him quietly and bring him some snacks that children outside like to eat.That was the happiest time for Xiao Shen Guan.

Mao Si rubbed Xiao Shen Guan's thin wrist with medicinal oil, watching his little master tilt his head and gnaw a piece of snack, with jujube paste on the corner of his mouth.

"Little master's birthday will be in a few days, is there anything you want?" Mao Si asked.

Xiao Shen Guan lowered his eyes, pursed the corners of his lips, a little shy: "Fourth Uncle, I want to eat water chestnuts from Yangzhou."

Maosi was a little happy and said: "Okay, I will ask someone to bring you some later."

A few days later, Jiang Lingxin received a secret order to investigate the case in Jiangxi, and Maosi accompanied him.The investigation of the case went smoothly, and the important criminal who should be arrested was also arrested. When the group returned to the house, they passed through Yangzhou. Maosi thought of this and deliberately told the master about it.

Jiang Lingxin was busy writing the dossier for the Holy Majesty, so he ignored him.Mao Si didn't dare to say any more, and the next day he took advantage of his spare time to go to the market by the river to buy some fresh water chestnuts for the little master.In August, the water chestnuts were placed there in black oil. Maosi bought a basket and was about to leave when he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the riverside market where people were coming and going.

The man was squatting in front of a moored fishing boat picking up water chestnuts. His white clothes were snaking, stained with a little dirt, his whole body was clean, and he didn't even wear a hair crown.He rummaged through the water chestnuts of several stalls, and it was better to be clumsy and serious than which one to face.

Mao Si stared blankly from afar, for a long time, couldn't help touching his nose and lowering his head to smile, and casually gave the basket of water chestnuts in his hand to the children on the side of the road.
