"Mr. Big, Mr. Big, did you really conjure that peach tree?"
"No, it grows from the ground."
"Sir, you are lying. How could you grow so tall overnight?"
Zi Su was eating a peach and looking at Mr. Chen in front of her with her big, watery eyes.
She was certain in her heart that it must be Mr. Da who conjured it up.
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "Not everything in this world is certain. Just like when you look at the world you see now, what do you think its shape is?"
Zi Su said: "The sky is round and the earth is round, Master has said it a long time ago."
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "No."
When Zi Su heard this, she retorted: "Mr. Da, please don't lie to me. Why isn't the sky round? Why isn't the earth square?"
"It's not that the sky is round and the earth is round. In fact, the world is a round ball wrapped in layers. But this ball is so big that you can't even notice it, so you feel that your feet are flat.
.”
Zi Su pursed her lips and said: "Mr. Da is talking nonsense!"
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Then just think I'm talking nonsense."
Zisu is a cute child with a childlike innocence, and is much more interesting than her three senior brothers.
"I won't tell Mr. Da anymore, I'm going to find my senior brother."
"Go ahead."
When Chen Changsheng saw Zisu walking out of the yard, he picked up the book and started reading.
Xuanhuang returned to the pavilion carrying the hoe.
In one morning, he had already cleared out an area in the back hill, at least getting rid of the weeds.
Xuanhuang heard his previous conversation with Zisu, so he asked: "Sir, is this world really a ball?"
Chen Changsheng saw that he was curious, so he replied: "It should be."
"Should?" Xuanhuang asked.
Chen Changsheng said: "If one day you stand on a high place and look into the distance and see an arc, then it is true. If not, then Chen is wrong."
"Sir, how high should the height be?"
"For example, the mountain at the bottom of my feet. If there are three mountains of this height stacked together, it should be about the same."
Xuanhuang nodded after hearing this, and then began to think about what Mr.
There should be no lies in what you said, sir.
But if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would still find it difficult to accept it.
Chen Changsheng picked up the book and planned to continue reading, but suddenly he remembered something.
Speaking of which, I promised Old Man Zhang the day before yesterday and suddenly forgot about it.
Chen Changsheng closed the book, stood up and said, "Chen remembered something and had to go down the mountain."
After hearing this, Xuanhuang asked: "Sir, will you return to Liuyunguan tonight?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and replied, "I can't say for sure."
"But if I haven't come back after dark, it will probably take a long time before I come back."
"Is this so?"
"Um."
Chen Changsheng walked towards the outside of the viewing room, and Xuan Huang stood up to see him off.
When he reached the entrance of the viewing hall, Chen Changsheng paused, turned around and said, "Please help Chen take care of the books in the library. I will read them next time I come."
"good."
Xuanhuang agreed and watched his husband go down the mountain.
He probably already guessed that Mr. Chen was leaving, and it was probably the same as in previous years...
Once you leave, it will take a few years.
.
.
After Chen Changsheng came down from the mountain, he went straight to Qiuyuefang.
Qiuyue Niang was sold out, and there were far fewer customers in the wine shop. Xiaoliu had some free time, and dozed off while sitting on the table in the wine shop.
Chen Changsheng walked into the wine shop, came to Xiao Liu's table and sat down.
Xiaoliu, who was holding his chin, couldn't hold it steady and woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he was startled.
"Ouch!"
Xiaoliu sat up in shock. He looked at the gentleman sitting in front of him, patted his chest quickly and said, "Sir, why are you walking silently? It scared me."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "It's because you slept too hard."
Xiao Liu regained his composure and said, "Sir, please wait for a moment, I'll call the shopkeeper right now."
"Eh……"
Chen Changsheng wanted to call him to stop him.
But I saw Xiao Liu walking quickly towards the backyard of the wine shop, shouting as he walked.
"Shopkeeper! Shopkeeper! Mr. Chen is here!"
Old man Zhang, who was sitting on a rocking chair in the backyard, suddenly woke up when he heard the word "Mr. Chen".
He sat up from the rocking chair.
At this time, Xiao Liu had already arrived in front of him.
"Who did you say is coming?" Old Man Zhang asked.
Xiao Liu said: "It's Mr. Chen."
"Hel me out quickly."
"Shopkeeper, please slow down."
Old man Zhang was supported by Xiao Liu and came to the wine shop.
After sitting down, Old Man Zhang said, "Sir, you didn't leave? I thought it would take another three years."
"Stay a few more days this year." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
Old Man Zhang laughed out loud. Now that he has lost one of his front teeth, he looks a little funny when he smiles.
Chen Changsheng said: "The day before yesterday, I said I would come to the wine shop to see you in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, something happened and I was delayed. I was two days late in one night, but I still came anyway."
Old man Zhang said with a smile: "It is my blessing that sir can remember me, how dare I ask for it."
Chen Changsheng also smiled, and then said: "Is there any more Qiuyue Brewing?"
Old man Zhang paused and said, "If Qiuyue Niang is concerned, I'm afraid..."
Chen Changsheng didn't care at all, waved his hand and said: "If you don't have it, just don't have it. It will be the same next time you come to drink."
Old Man Zhang looked at Xiao Liu and ordered: "Xiao Liu, go and get the jar of aged wine from the house for me."
Xiao Liu went to get the wine.
Chen Changsheng started chatting with Old Man Zhang.
Later, Xiao Liu brought wine and served two plates of appetizers.
When Xiao Liu saw that the shopkeeper was enjoying his drink, he held back his mouth and watched the shopkeeper drink one bowl and another.
He was worried in his heart, so he said: "Shopkeeper... you'd better drink less wine. Doctor Tong said it before, you can't drink anymore now."
Old man Zhang was unhappy when he heard this and said, "You're too talkative. I haven't even had a few years to live. Why don't you even let me take a sip of wine?"
Chen Changsheng said: "You still have to listen to what the doctor says."
Chen Changsheng moved the wine jar aside, pointed at the wine in Old Man Zhang's bowl, and said, "The last bowl."
Old man Zhang said: "How can that be done? If Mr. doesn't enjoy it to the fullest, wouldn't it mean that I'm being negligent? It won't work, it won't work."
"Eh."
Chen Changsheng moved the wine jar back and said, "You can drink wine at any time. A small drink will make you happy. A big drink will make you nervous. It would be better if you skip two bowls."
Old man Zhang smashed his mouth and looked at the man who was so greedy for wine.
But since his husband said so, he had no reason not to listen, so he could only sigh helplessly.
Chen Changsheng asked: "What disease did you get? Now you can't even drink?"
Old man Zhang stretched out his leg and sighed helplessly: "The leg is still so bad."
Chen Changsheng took a look and saw through the skin that there was signs of erosion in the old man's leg bones.
You really can't drink anymore like this.
"It's so serious..."
Chen Changsheng continued: "In your situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stand up after a while."
But Old Man Zhang didn't care very much and said, "If you can't stand up, then you can't stand up. After all, I'm so old, and some minor illnesses are common."
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment, then brought Old Man Zhang's wine bowl in front of him.
Then he picked up the wine jar and filled the wine bowl with wine.
Pushed it to Old Man Zhang.
Old man Zhang was a little puzzled and asked: "Didn't you allow me to drink, sir?"
Chen Changsheng smiled warmly and said, "You can drink from this bowl."
