Chapter 78

Tian Zhongxi's words were like a clap of thunder, shocking Zhang Xiaohua on the spot. What … what was going on?

Zhang Xiaohua looked back at Ma Jing and saw that he was eating happily. It seemed that he had already hidden Little Peach in a golden house. The smile on his face was deeply hidden behind the wrinkles of his dark and thin skin. Under the light of the fire in the dining room, the excitement in his eyes could be seen. There was even a flush on his forehead.

Zhang Xiaohua seemed to understand something and was furious. Although he was a country boy and had not seen much of the world, he was not someone who could be easily schemed against and bullied. He did not offend Ma Jing. He just advised him to wash his feet and pay attention to hygiene. He was tricked by him and made Tian Zhongxi despise him. This was too hateful.

Zhang Xiaohua gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He walked towards Ma Jing. However, when he just took two steps, he saw Ma Jing's fearless look. Suddenly, an idea arose in his mind. It immediately extinguished the burning anger in his heart. If he went over like this, Ma Jing would not admit it. How could he be reasonable?

Moreover, these people around him were usually scoundrels. They could tell who was near and who was far away. How could they help him?

Besides, even if he went over and beat Ma Jing, what was the result?

Could it be that he was driven out before he learned martial arts?

The connected questions made Zhang Xiaohua calm down. He stopped and looked at Ma Jing. He did not speak anymore. He returned to his seat and ate quietly.

Apart from Ma Jing, the rest of the people in the green robes and small hats were all gossiping among themselves. Naturally, no one paid too much attention to it.

But the middle-aged man next to him heard it clearly. He even saw Zhang Xiaohua's later actions clearly. When Zhang Xiaohua sat quietly, he withdrew his gaze and continued to eat.

After dinner, Zhang Xiaohua took the things he packed from Tian Zhongxi's room and moved them back to Ma Jing's room. However, Zhang Xiaohua was not stupid enough to ask him face to face why he did so.

This night, he did not listen to Ma Jing's nonsense. Instead, he went to the yard and walked slowly, thinking as he walked.

Although it was not a big deal, it taught Zhang Xiaohua a very profound lesson. It gave him a very special understanding of the world. Between people, there was not only harmony and hatred, but also many strange things. Different people would do different things. Maybe it was kindness, maybe it was malice, maybe it was just to tease you, maybe it was just to watch the show. In short, there was no way to know a person's heart. Everything had to be carefully considered before one could believe it. Bad people did not all have the face of a bad person!

However, every night before going to bed, Zhang Xiaohua would open the window, whether it was sunny or rainy..

After a few more days, Zhang Xiaohua's lazy and free life came to an end. Zhang Xiaohua did not like this kind of life that others envied, so he happily accepted the task given to him by Tian Zhongxi.

This task might be a little difficult for the group of servants in cyan clothes and hats, but for Zhang Xiaohua, a child who grew up in the field since childhood, it was not a challenge at all.

Early in the morning, Zhang Xiaohua wore the cyan clothes and hats brought by Tian Zhongxi and went out with Ma Jing in high spirits. His task was to learn all the work of the herbal field from Ma Jing as soon as possible.

Looking at Zhang Xiaohua's happy appearance, Ma Jing could not help but secretly despise him. He was really a country bumpkin. If he did not work for a day, his hands would be itchy. He could only be a farmer for a lifetime. Thinking of the matter of teasing Zhang Xiaohua a few days ago and recalling Zhang Xiaohua's defeated appearance, Ma Jing secretly laughed in his heart. Humph, who said that I, Ma Jing, was the most laughed at in the Huanxi Mountain Villa?

Isn't there another little bumpkin here? Isn't he also played in the palm of my hand?

Ma Jing despised Zhang Xiaohua and could also tease him in daily life, but in the herbal field, Ma Jing did not dare to be careless at all. What to do and what to pay attention to, he meticulously told Zhang Xiaohua. He was very clear that the herbs in the Huanxi Mountain Villa were the most important. At this moment, he made a little trouble for Zhang Xiaohua or neglected to mention a little. If something went wrong in the future, not only would Zhang Xiaohua be punished, but he would also be involved. Ma Jing was very clear about this point, so he did not dare to hide anything at all.

Of course, Zhang Xiaohua did not know what he was thinking. She thought how difficult it would be to take care of the herbs, but along the way, she heard that there was not much difference between planting crops, only some subtle differences. So she wrote it down in detail. She also took a small medicine hoe and medicine shovel and followed Ma Jing to loosen the soil and shovel the grass. It was easy. After a day, when Ma Jing asked, Zhang Xiaohua's answer was very satisfactory. Moreover, looking at Zhang Xiaohua's appearance of working, Ma Jing was also a little relieved.

So after two days, Ma Jing told Tian Zhongxi that Zhang Xiaohua could work alone. Tian Zhongxi still did not believe his ears. In the past, there were new people in his manservant team, but he only dared to let them go after a long time. Was Ma Jing fooling him?

Thinking about Ma Jing's usual behavior, he was more certain.

However, after he also took care of Zhang Xiaohua for a day, he really believed that Zhang Xiaohua could work alone. He felt a little guilty that he had wronged Ma Jing.

After he asked Zhang Xiaohua in detail, he then found out the reason. This kind of medicinal herbs was no different from planting crops. In the past, the manservants recruited by the Huanxi Mountain Villa were mostly from the vicinity of Ping Yang City and had a certain family background. How could the poor children of farmers be qualified to be taken in by the Huanxi Mountain Villa?

Only Zhang Xiaohua was an exception. She was a child from a poor family and had farmed before. The bunch of manservants under him were all arrogant at home. How could they work in the fields?

Therefore, it gave them the illusion that the work in this medicinal herb field was very complicated and difficult to do.

After thinking through this, Tian Zhongxi could not help but let out a long sigh. Habitual thinking killed people.

After that, Zhang Xiaohua finally got rid of the decadent days of reaping without sowing and returned to the fields that she was familiar with. The small medicinal hoe and spade were really cute. It was much more convenient to use than the big hoe at home.

Zhang Xiaohua also had the strength now. She could easily finish a day's work. These days were really comfortable.

However, Zhang Xiaohua was pleasantly surprised by what happened next.

This morning, Zhang Xiaohua was still watching the middle-aged man in martial arts training. However, that person did not leave immediately after he was done. Instead, he walked in front of Zhang Xiaohua and said, "Your name is Zhang Xiaohua."

Zhang Xiaohua blinked and nodded. Then, she heard a very pleasant sentence.

"Miss asked me to teach you martial arts when I have the time."

Zhang Xiaohua opened her mouth and said, "Really?"

That person smiled and said, "It's true. My name is He Tianshu. You can call me Team Leader He. Wait for me here after dinner tonight. I will start teaching you today."

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned again. She was obviously happy.

He Tianshu saw that Zhang Xiaohua did not say anything and knew how he was feeling. He patted his shoulder and turned to leave. Only Zhang Xiaohua was left digesting the news that she wanted to hear the most in her life.

This Miss was really a good person. Zhang Xiaohua almost wanted to rush into the inner courtyard and worship the Miss. However, thinking about the inner courtyard's complexity, if she got lost, wouldn't she be chased out as a peeping tom?

Only then did she extinguish the thought.

In short, her gratitude towards Ou Yan could not be expressed with words. She instantly placed this unknown Miss on the same level as her sister-in-law Liu Qian in her heart.

Zhang Xiaohua spent the whole day waiting anxiously and excitedly. There were even a few times when she almost made mistakes in the medicine field. This made Zhang Xiaohua immediately alert. How could she forget about this small beginning?

Calm down, calm down. Zhang Xiaohua warned herself as she worked hard. From time to time, she would raise her head to look at the sky. Why was the sun going so slowly today?

In the torment, the sun finally set in the west. Tian Zhongxi's shout came from afar. Zhang Xiaohua immediately rushed out of the medicine field. She had long left her calmness behind. This state of mind that was not happy with external gains and not sad for oneself, Zhang Xiaohua was still far from it.

Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly finished her dinner and came to the outer courtyard early. The moonlight was like water, but Zhang Xiaohua's mood was like boiling water. She was so excited. The wish that she had been thinking about for a long time was finally going to be realized. Who could still calm down? But why was He Tianshu not here yet?

When she was eating just now, she saw that he was almost done eating. Usually, he would finish eating early and come out early. Why was he so slow now?

Zhang Xiaohua walked back and forth under the moonlight, anxiously waiting.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally heard footsteps coming from the courtyard. Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly went to greet them. Sure enough, it was He Tianshu. Zhang Xiaohua happily said, "Captain He, you've come."

He Tianshu looked at Xiaohua and said with a straight face, "Xiaohua, although I'm teaching you martial arts, I'm not your real master. Captain He is just a title. Do you understand?"

Zhang Xiaohua blankly nodded. He Tianshu said again, "Although I'm not your real master, I'll teach you to the best of my ability. It just depends on how much you can learn."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded again. He Tianshu continued, "Then I'll tell you the first thing today. When practicing martial arts, you must practice with a calm heart. Don't be impatient. Look at you now?

How can you practice martial arts in peace? "

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she immediately understood a lot. Yes, what had she become today? She was completely dazzled by this good news. She immediately gathered her thoughts and calmly said to He Tianshu, "Thank you, Captain He, for teaching me."

At this time, He Tianshu nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's good. No matter what happens in the future, you must be as calm as an ancient well. Come with me."
