Feeling a large amount of vitality growing in his body, as well as some inexplicable changes, Ma Xiaolong finally understood how much change a pure girl could bring to him. This was completely an evolution of life levels.
On the other side, Li Xin felt that she was full of power, as if she could kill a cow with one punch. The violent energy made her have the urge to release it violently.
At the same time, she found that her skin seemed to be more delicate, and because of practicing Qigong, some of the dead skin on her hands and feet fell off, and new white and tender skin grew.
As for the pain, it disappeared quickly. Soon, the wounds caused by Ma Xiaolong healed automatically, and her current condition was better than ever.
"Go and try it!" Sensing Li Xin's eagerness to try, Ma Xiaolong pointed to the stone locks and wooden man stakes in the yard.
"Yes, Master." Li Xin put on her clothes and went to lift the stone lock first. The two hundred kilogram stone lock that had to be lifted with great effort in the past was actually lifted easily by her with one hand, as if it was not a stone lock.
The stone lock is made of plastic in the shape of a stone lock.
In the past, it would have only weighed twenty kilograms. A thought came to Li Xin's mind: Ten times the strength!
The first time she practiced Huanxi Kung Fu, her strength increased tenfold, and her cheating was not so exaggerated.
He then lifted up a 150-pound stone lock and waved the two stone locks vigorously, one in each hand. Under the excitement and excitement, Li Xin forgot about his fatigue and played with the stone lock for more than ten minutes before he stopped.
I was out of breath and my arms were sore.
Even if his strength increased tenfold, it was still a stone lock weighing hundreds of kilograms. If he let go and swung it for more than ten minutes, Ma Xiaolong would be tired, let alone her.
"Don't stop, hit the wooden dummy." Ma Xiaolong said.
"Yes, Master." Li Xin endured the pain in his arms and drove up the wooden dummy.
Bang——
The arm of the wooden dummy was broken.
"..." Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Ma Xiaolong: "Master..."
"Have a rest!" Ma Xiaolong said: "Don't practice for the next few days. Get used to the strength. When you get used to it, you can practice again."
"I understand, Master." Li Xin picked up the wooden man stake that fell on the ground and asked, "Master, what should I do with this wooden man stake?"
"Just repair it." Ma Xiaolong went to the utility room to find a piece of wood and some carpenter's tools.
Saw, polish, insert, then apply maintenance wax, put it in the yard to dry, and it will be ready for normal use in a few days.
"Master is really versatile." Li Xin flattered him again.
"Not bad." Putting the tools away, Li Xin helped clean the house. Although the increase in strength was a bit exaggerated and made her uncomfortable, she could still clean the floor.
It was past ten o'clock, and Ma Xiaolong called Zhusha: "Where are you? Are you coming back for dinner?"
"Husband, I'm at the real estate bureau!" Zhusha's tone was very pleasant.
Ma Xiaolong was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Has the house owner come down?"
"Well, there are quite a few people here. Husband, I will go through the formalities first and go home in an hour at most." Zhu Sha said.
"Okay." After a pause: "Is Xiaojun with you?"
"Here he is! We'll go back together later."
"Okay, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Haha, I love everything my husband cooks."
"Okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Xin asked: "Master, has the demolition house of my wife come down?"
"Yeah." Ma Xiaolong said, "Make a pot of water and eat noodles for lunch."
"Okay, Master."
…
In less than an hour, Zhu Sha and Chen Jun came back with two big red books and keys in their hands.
"Hubby, I've got the house book and keys. Are you going to check out our store this afternoon?" Zhu Sha said with a smile.
"Okay." Ma Xiaolong also finished making the stew and said, "You're tired now! Go wash your face quickly, take a nap after dinner, and refresh yourself before going."
"Okay." Zhu Sha and Chen Jun went to wash their faces and rinse their feet.
In mid-July, it was like fried eggs outside, but their feet had suffered a lot. After washing their feet and putting on sandals, they felt much more comfortable.
Lo noodles can be said to be a must-have delicacy in summer. Make a few dishes, make two of your favorite braised noodles, add some sesame sauce, garlic vinegar, and stir them together. The taste is amazing.
Li Xin ate three large bowls in a row. This sudden increase in appetite shocked Zhu Sha and Chen Jun. Although Li Xin usually eats a lot, with the sea bowl he is using now, one bowl is definitely enough. Today
how?
Recalling that Ma Xiaolong seemed to want to teach Li Xin the Joy Kung Fu before going out, Zhu Sha seemed to understand something, and looking carefully, Li Xin seemed to be different from usual. I couldn’t tell what was different, but it was indeed much more pleasing to the eye than before.
.
"Xiao Xin, have you learned it?" Zhu Sha asked.
"Ah? Oh, um." Li Xin nodded: "Thanks to the master, but I just learned the movement route. If I want to use my true power, I have to find someone to help me later."
"Looking for help?" Chen Jun, not knowing the inside story, asked, "Do you still need help when practicing?"
"Ahem, there are some kung fu that cannot be practiced by one person. You have to have a few assistants. For example, if you stab your throat with an iron spear or break a big stone on your chest, you can't do it without help," Ma Xiaolong said.
"Oh?" Chen Jun nodded. She was just an amateur anyway, so she was fooled casually.
Zhu Sha glanced at Ma Xiaolong with a smile, turned to ask Li Xin: "Who are you going to ask for help?"
"No need for the time being." Li Xin said, "Master told me to practice first and deepen my skills. Then I can find someone to help me, and the effect will be better."
"Oh?" Zhusha didn't understand this either, but thinking that the energy did come from Ma Xiaolong last night, she nodded thoughtfully and said with a pun: "Then you practice hard, but practicing is dangerous. In the future,
Don’t mess around.”
Li Xin understood and nodded: "Don't worry, Master, I won't do anything random."
"That's good." Seeing that she really understood, Zhu Sha smiled slightly: "Do you want Master Niang to help you find a partner to practice with?"
"Uh~ Thank you, Master, for your kindness, but no need, I can find it." Li Xin said.
"Okay! If you can't find it, tell the teacher's wife." Zhu Sha smiled.
"Okay, thank you, Master."
"..."
After the meal, Ma Xiaolong closed the door and the four of them took a nap.
Ma Xiaolong couldn't sleep at all, but he was dragged to bed by Zhu Sha, closed the door and made out for a while. Even though Ma Xiaolong said that once a day is enough, and more is useless, Zhu Sha's eyes were as charming as silk: "Fool, it's just because it's a practice.
I can enjoy it wholeheartedly, now I want to make up for the enjoyment I had at night."
"..." After his wife said so, Ma Xiaolong could only do his best and die.
After lunch break, Ma Xiaolong drove the three girls straight to Xinhua Street in his electric tricycle.
Cinnabar's two storefronts are both in Xinhua Street. After two years of construction, Xinhua Street was finally completed. Although the residents' houses are all four-story buildings and the storefronts are only two-story shops, the roads are quite wide and can be
Let eight cars pass side by side, but the house has just been delivered, and many homeowners are renovating their new houses. The entire street is busy with migrant workers from south to north. The sound of various electric drills and chainsaws comes one after another, making it very noisy.
Cinnabar's store is a corner store at the intersection, with the best location and the most expensive price. However, at this time, the store only has two glass doors, and the inside is only paved with floor tiles and putty on the walls. If you want to open for business, at least
Security doors and windows must be installed. As for the interior decoration of the store, it is up to the tenants themselves.
The four of them looked around in the two stores. They found that the space was large and the location was good. However, the internal structure was not very good, typical of the 1990s style. Anyway, Ma Xiaolong didn't like it.
Zhu Sha didn't care. Anyway, she didn't live by herself or open her own shop. She just rented out the house and collected the rent every month.
"It's not bad." Ma Xiaolong said, "The town has not developed yet. Even for such a good store, it would be good if the monthly rent can be 3,000 yuan."
"That's a lot." Zhu Sha smiled and said: "Even if it's only two thousand five thousand a month, it's five thousand for two stores. Sixty thousand a year. When we work here, it's only about five thousand a year. That's fine.
."
"So you have to go to the big cities to make money." Ma Xiaolong said: "My aunt's shabby store in Gulou is far worse than ours, but the rent is six to seven thousand a month. If these two stores were placed in the capital, the rent would be at least 20,000 a month.
."
"Aren't you in the capital?" Zhu Sha said with a smile: "I am already very content. Besides, I have a husband to support me, so I don't need this little money."
"That's true." Ma Xiaolong was delighted: "It's just pocket change anyway. Wife, just be happy."
"I'm so happy!" Zhu Sha hugged his arm and said with a smile, "My life is almost complete now."
"Morning!" Ma Xiaolong said: "Next year I have to make a movie and become a martial arts star! In a few years, when we have a few children, then life will be truly complete."
Cinnabar smiles like a flower.
"Uh~ Master." Li Xin suddenly poured cold water on her: "Our country's policy is that it is better to have only one child, and you will be fined for more than one child."
"..." Ma Xiaolong glared at her, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't worry, there are fewer new babies in our country every year, and the policy will change in the future."
"Really?" Li Xin had never heard of Xin'er.
"It will take more than ten years!" Ma Xiaolong said: "Although I think it is a bit late by then, it is best to change the policy before 2008, otherwise there will be headaches sooner or later."
"..." Li Xin was thoughtful.
After looking at the house, several people went to the stationery store and bought some A4 paper and carbon pens. Ma Xiaolong wrote two rental advertisements by himself, then stuck them on the door glass with transparent tape, and left Zhusha's phone number.
This was Zhu Sha's request. She wanted to discuss renting a house with the tenant in person, saying that it would be more fulfilling.
As long as your wife is happy.
But when the advertisement was first posted, someone came over to ask about renting a house. Zinsha directly asked for three thousand, and then scared the people away.
There is no way. In fact, there has been a wave of layoffs in the past few years. In addition, last year's most serious mass explosion caused the income of residents in the small town to decrease instead of increasing. The average salary is only 400 yuan, but the rent in Zhusha is 3,000 yuan.
Who can afford to rent?
The visitor ran so decisively, which made Zhusha doubt her life: "Am I asking too harshly?"
"No, it's because I haven't met the right person." Ma Xiaolong comforted: "The person just now looked like the kind of old man who likes to wander around. It is their instinct to ask for information. If there are any relatives or friends renting a house at home, they will
Being able to stand up and provide relevant information can be regarded as a means to increase one's own value. But such people rarely spend money unless it is really a big deal."
"That's it." Zhu Sha suddenly understood, and her heart settled down.
"Three thousand yuan is indeed more expensive, but it is not an exaggeration. If you are lucky, you can still find a suitable tenant. However, the base price is two thousand five thousand. During this period, your mobile phone will definitely have various contact numbers. When the time comes, you can negotiate for three thousand yuan.
Look, the price of two thousand five thousand, unless you meet someone who is particularly pleasing to the eye, it will be higher if you can."
"Okay." Zhu Sha nodded with a smile, held his arm, and said, "Fortunately, I have a husband. If I were myself, I wouldn't understand this at all."
"No, they are all things with little technical content. You just haven't understood them yet. You will be able to understand them once you understand them."
"Thank you husband."
"As long as you're happy."
Chen Jun, who had become invisible all the way, went home with the three of them.
…
In the evening, Zhang Chiling returned home and learned that Zhu Sha had obtained the house book and key of the store. She was very happy to congratulate her, but she also thought of a question: "After our place is demolished, it will be okay for you, Xiaolong, to go to school in the capital, but
Xiaojun still has to go to high school, what will happen then? Will he live on campus?"
"Why live on campus?" Ma Xiaolong said: "I have two houses opposite No. 1 Middle School, and I will pack one for Xiaojun to live in. Mom, you stay with Xiaojun there for two years, and then go to develop it after Xiaojun graduates from high school.
Stay in a villa.”
"That's okay..." Zhang Zhiling nodded and turned to Chen Jun: "Xiaojun, what do you think?"
"I listen to my brother." Chen Jun said.
In another year, Ma Xiaolong and the others will go to college, and Heyan has already received news of demolition in two years. Several neighbors have already moved. When Ma Xiaolong goes to college and leaves next year, he will definitely not live here again.
, so she had to prepare to move in advance, but if she moved to a villa in the development zone, it would be too far to go to school. Since Ma Xiaolong had a house opposite No. 1 Middle School, she could cope with it for two years first.
Chen Jun felt very sad when he thought that he and Ma Xiaolong would be separated after the summer vacation next year.
While a few people were chatting, Li Xin returned to his bedroom, closed the door, and called his father.
The call was quickly answered: "Hello, Xiaoxin?"
"It's me, dad, asking you something."
Li Yuanchao smiled and said: "It's rare. If you have anything to do, just ask!"
"This matter of family planning..." After recounting what he heard from Ma Xiaolong this afternoon, Li Xin asked: "Dad, do you think what my master said makes sense? In more than ten years, will it really be too late?"
"..." Li Yuanchao fell silent.
