Chapter 4 Big Nephew
It is cold in spring, and although Zhou Xian is not sleepy, he can hide in the warm bed and have a few more beautiful dreams in such weather. Who wouldn’t want to?
Zhou Zhen considered that Zhou Xian had just recovered from a serious illness, so he ordered the maid who served him not to quarrel. He just waited for waking up and then sent the food to his room after it was hot, which gave him a chance to be lazy. Most of the other time, he would never get up until the sky was bright. Because of this, he was late, and got a lot of rulers from his Master.
But today, it was still dark outside. He heard a "bang" sound, and the door of the house was kicked open immediately, and then there was a lot of steps entering the house. Zhou Xian didn't need to open his eyes and knew that it must be Zhou Tai, his nephew who was like a demon king in the world. He turned over lazily and deliberately ignored him.
Zhou Tai obviously didn't realize this. He looked at Zhou Xian, who turned over, then scratched his head motionlessly, thinking that such a loud noise had not woken him up yet. It seemed that he would have to prepare a gong in the future. He walked forward and sat on Zhou Xian with his butt. The weight of more than 160 pounds was pressing against the latter and almost vomited blood.
Zhou Xian reached out and pushed him away, shouting angrily: "Get out."
Zhou Tai was not angry, and smiled and said, "Uncle, it's time to get up. What's the martial arts master he was looking for? Are you really capable? I tell you, if he doesn't do it, you must not leave him. If you practice martial arts, you must learn from the master and never let him mislead his children. A natural martial arts genius like me will win the top martial arts scholar in the future. If you meet someone badly, you will be done."
Looking at Zhou Tai who was chattering like beans, Zhou Xian was speechless. "When meeting someone, it means that a woman married the wrong man. You are a fat man weighing more than 160 pounds. What should you tell me about meeting someone? Even if you meet someone, it can only be someone else. I don't blame you for studying less, but I still show off my studies. That's really your fault. By the way, if you don't sleep well at this time, why do you run into my room? You won't just come to ask the martial arts master!"
Zhou Tai slapped his forehead and said, "What am I saying? When I said this idiom just now, I felt something was wrong. It turns out that this is what I mean when I met someone wrong!"
He pushed Zhou Xian, who moved it helplessly, leaving him some space. He sat on it and touched Zhou Xian with his arms and said, "Uncle, when my father told me last night when I practiced martial arts with you, I was so excited that I didn't sleep all night. You don't know how many times I begged my father before, but he didn't agree, just said that I would study hard. You said there is anything to read in those books. Master Lin kept talking on it all day long, and I wanted to sleep when I heard it."
Zhou Xianxi glanced at him and sighed, "You said that brother is good, why didn't you inherit it at all?"
Zhou Tai ignored the sarcasm in Zhou Xian's tone. "Uncle, people say that we should treat our master sincerely. Do you think we should prepare some gifts for the new master, such as bows and arrows, long swords, etc. After all, it was the first time we met, so that he could teach us with all his heart and strength in the future!"
"Well, this should be true." Zhou Xian nodded deeply in agreement.
Seeing that Zhou Xian agreed to him, Zhou Tai was overjoyed and said, "Uncle, what should we prepare? Or I will steal the sword in my father's house and pass it on to him."
"No, that's too common. I see the poisonous snakes and scorpions you prepared for Mr. Lin, which are very good, and you will surely scare him to death. Go and go, hurry up and prepare, it will be too late." As he said that, Zhou Xian pushed Zhou Tai out, hoping to send the plague god away as soon as possible.
"Hey hey! Uncle, are I going to tell you the serious business?" Zhou Tai's butt sank and he refused to leave.
Although Zhou Xian's body was not thin, it was difficult for Zhou Tai to enter the sky if he wanted to push him like a mountain. He tried it a few times, but finally gave up. He said to Zhou Tai: "I'm talking about Xiao Tai! I haven't even said that thing yet? Can he be your master? You have to wait until you examine his ability before making a decision. By the way, why are you so active in this matter?"
Zhou Tai sighed deeply, looked up at the distance and said, "How can the sparrow know the ambition of a swan! Of course, martial arts geniuses like me have to work hard." Then he looked at Zhou Xian with infinite compassion and said, "Uncle! Don't worry, when I become the top martial arts scholar one day, I will definitely protect you."
Zhou Xian said coldly: "Get out!"
Zhou Tai saw that it really annoyed Zhou Xian, so he stopped making noise and walked out in shame.
Seeing that he finally went out, Zhou Xian sighed softly, lay down quickly, and prepared to have a beautiful sleep. With a "squeak", the door was opened again. Zhou Tai's round head stretched out from the door again. "Uncle, do you really need to prepare a gift?"
"Bang!" Zhou Xian threw the pillow under his head and hit the door hard. The outside finally became quiet.
Zhou Tai is Zhou Zhen's only son, four years older than Zhou Xian. Here, Zhou Xian has to admire his father's strength, and he was still so powerful when he was fifty. However, he has always been an official in the capital, and Zhou Xian has never seen him since he traveled through time. However, occasionally I heard the old slave who had been in the Zhou Mansion for a long time privately saying that he did not love Zhou Xian, just because the latter was born with difficulty. Although he successfully gave birth to Zhou Xian, his wife Yan died of difficult labor.
In the Ming Dynasty, when there were mostly three wives and four concubines, Zhou Xian's father Zhou Tianhong was an alien. He strictly abides by monogamy, and from the beginning to the end, there was only Yan's wife. After knowing these situations, Zhou Xian understood his mood a little. Fortunately, he came through time and didn't have much feelings for the other party, and he didn't feel too sad. He was just a little curious about his father who had never been masked but was the Shaoqing of Taipu Temple.
Although Zhou Tai is older than Zhou Xian, he doesn't know if it's because of the seniority of both parties or something else. Compared with this uncle who is four years younger than him, he is very dependent on him and is willing to listen to him in everything. Zhou Xian had a eccentric personality in the past and did a lot of bad things. Many times he made the decision, and Zhou Tai went to implement it, which led to the latter being beaten by Zhou Zhen. But this guy was rough and thick-skinned and forgot after being beaten, and he never betrayed Zhou Xian.
