Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

It was hard for Chen Xu to understand Sha Zhu's current mood.

Just like in modern times.

Your monthly salary is 1,000 yuan, and I am the boss's father.

If you earn 3,000 yuan a month, then at least you are the boss's brother.

Your monthly salary is 5,000 yuan, and your boss is barely considered a human being.

Your monthly salary is 10,000 yuan, so your boss must be my brother.

Your monthly salary is 30,000 yuan, so your boss is definitely my father...

Sha Zhu's salary has suddenly increased from the current fixed 17.5 yuan to more than 60 yuan, so he has to perform well.

Chen Xu ignored this guy. He had to go back to the countryside tomorrow, and with two more burdens to take with him, he naturally had to go back early to rest.

the next day.

Chen Xu looked at Xu Damao, who also had dark circles under his eyes, with some confusion.

"What did you do tonight?"

"No, I just didn't sleep well."

Although Xu Damao looked a little haggard, he was still in good spirits.

But it didn't take long for Xu Damao to become dispirited.

"This is my friend, his name is Qu Jiu."

Lou Xiao'e introduced the girl next to her to the two men.

Chen Xu glanced at the girl with some curiosity. She was in her twenties, with short, neat hair, and was pretty. She had a flat chest, but her manners were very methodical, and she must have been a martial artist.

As for the friends Lou Xiao'e mentioned, Chen Xu definitely didn't believe it. It should be the subordinates trained by the Lou family themselves.

Xu Damao next to her looked as if his father had died, and Lou Xiaoe wanted to laugh for some reason.

Chen Xu suggested going there by bicycle yesterday. Lou Xiao'e and Qu Jiu each rode one. Xu Damao took Lou Xiao'e with him, while Qu Jiu rode alone, but there were some bags and baskets tied to the back of the bicycle containing some things.

Chen Xu was also riding alone, and the three bicycles were still very eye-catching.

Chen Xu and Qu Jiu didn't feel anything at all, but Xu Damao couldn't do it anymore. He was out of breath before he had even ridden halfway.

Normally, this guy wouldn't be like this. Normally, when he shows movies, he has several boxes of equipment and it's not that tiring.

The main reason is that he didn't sleep all night yesterday, which resulted in him obviously not having enough energy now.

"Would you like me to ride for a while?"

Lou Xiao'e suggested.

"No, I can do it. Just sit down."

Xu Damao gritted his teeth and insisted that he had no problem at all.

Unfortunately, his words were not convincing at all. Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes, jumped out from behind his car, and moved to the back of Chen Xu's car.

Xu Damao heaved a sigh of relief, but still felt a little resentful. He felt like he had lost all his face and regretted that he shouldn't have thought about it last night.

Chen Xu was a little embarrassed. He felt that Lou Xiao'e was not shy at all. It would be fine if you could move to Qu Jiu's place.

However, when he took a look at the bags and baskets on the back of Qu Jiu's cart, he knew that Lou Xiao'e had no choice.

Xu Damao didn't care. He felt like he was really exhausted, but luckily he had his good brothers around.

Chen Xu didn't care. Since these two guys didn't care, what was there for him to care about?

But Lou Xiao'e's illness was really serious, and Chen Xu felt unwell all over.

When he first brought Lin Chan with him, he didn't feel anything at all, and even used the emergency brakes to play tricks from time to time.

By the time he arrived at Chenjia Village, Chen Xu had already regretted bringing these two burdens with him.

Xu Damao felt like he was about to fall apart. Not only was he tired, but his eyelids were also drooping.

Lin Yuan watched in silence as Silly Ezi frolicked like a husky, either smelling wild flowers or splashing water in the creek behind Chen Xu's house with her hands.

Qu Jiu stayed beside her diligently.

"Get ready to go, we are heading to Linjia Village."

Chen Xu wondered whether to go on the bamboo raft or walk. The bamboo raft was not big, and it would be a bit crowded with him, Lin Chan and some other things. Now there were four people and they also had some stuff with them, so if they went by water, they would have to make two trips.

Chen Xu decisively chose to take the mountain road.

Xu Damao felt like he had lost all desire to live. He had just sat down to rest for a few minutes, but now he didn't want to move at all.

Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Xu Damao was, he had to follow the three people. Fortunately, he had his good brother Chen Xu with him, who didn't ask him to carry the load, otherwise he felt that he would not reach his destination alive.

Chen Xu now understood what Lou Xiao'e brought. It was actually a bag of rice, probably weighing several dozen kilograms.

Rice is really rare nowadays, but it is nothing to Lou Xiao'e.

There were also some other dishes and other things, which were all taken by Qu Jiu.

Chen Xu was surprised to find that Qu Jiu's physical strength was extraordinary. Both of them were carrying things. Although the rice Chen Xu carried was heavier, after two hours, both of them were only slightly out of breath.

From the looks of them, we can tell that they are all martial artists.

But the latter two guys are not okay. Xu Damao is almost dead and can only move when walking.

Lou Xiao'e was not much better off. Walking on the mountain road was really difficult for this young lady.

"Brother, how far is it?"

Xu Damao felt weak and listless.

"It's not far. We'll be there just over the hill."

Chen Xu spoke calmly.

"You said the same thing an hour ago."

Lou Xiao'e didn't believe Chen Xu's nonsense at all. They had already climbed several mountains.

Chen Xu was speechless. If it were just him and Qu Jiu, they should have arrived by now, but with these two burdens, they were only halfway there.

"Then take a break."

Chen Xu had no choice. He couldn't carry the things and someone on his back. He was not Lin Chan. Although he was in much better health now, he didn't have the ability to do that.

Xu Damao sat down against the tree in a very ungraceful manner. He really couldn't bear it any longer. Before Chen Xu and the two girls said a few words, Xu Damao was already snoring loudly.

Chen Xu looked at this guy speechlessly. He felt that it would be evening by the time he arrived at Linjia Village today.

Lou Xiao'e almost cried as she looked at the blisters on her feet. She regretted it now. She didn't take Chen Xu's suggestion of taking a mountain road seriously. Now it's too late to regret.

It was pretty much as Chen Xu guessed. The mountain road that usually took at most two hours actually took five or six hours to walk. Chen Xu even regretted it. Even if he had paddled the bamboo raft twice, it would still be better than walking the mountain road. He overestimated Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e's physical strength and willpower.

After all, when he first came here, his physical strength was not as good as these two, but it was obvious that he underestimated his willpower at that time.

Many times, overcoming difficulties does not rely solely on physical strength, willpower is more important.

In his previous life, Chen Xu was the type of person who could be ruthless and would never back down once he made up his mind. It only took him two or three hours to walk this road with his skinny body.

These two guys are not as good as he was back then.

When they saw the village, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e almost cried. It was so difficult. They had never thought that there would be people living in such a mountain valley.

Halfway through, the two almost thought that Chen Xu was going to take them deep into the mountains to feed the tigers...

Lin Chan looked at the four people who arrived when it was almost dark and looked confused.

When Lou Xiao'e saw Lin Chan, she felt like she had seen a relative. She hugged him and started crying. Lin Chan was a little embarrassed as many people in the village were watching.

Apparently, there were a few strangers in the village, and many people came out to watch the fun.

Linjia Village is too remote, and it is rare to see outsiders.
