Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

He Yuzhu carried some side dishes and a bottle of wine and walked briskly to a table. Seeing the man who had just spoken tasting wine alone, he asked, "Sir, can I share a table with you?"

Ma Changyu raised his head with a sharp gaze, turned his head and looked at He Yuzhu. Seeing that He Yuzhu was sincere, he nodded.

He answered in a loud voice: "Please sit down. New faces are not common. Ma is willing to make this connection with you today."

"Okay!" He Yuzhu was delighted when he heard that. He quickly put down the wine and food, pulled out a stool and sat down steadily.

He poured himself a glass of wine and glanced at Ma Changyu casually.

I saw that the other person had short gray hair, sword-like eyebrows and a short beard, bright and sharp eyes, and was wearing a short coat. His arms were thick and strong. It was obvious that he was a martial artist.

Ma Changyu seemed to feel He Yuzhu's gaze. He put down his wine glass and glared at him, but his tone was not unhappy: "Boy, if you have anything to say, just speak up."

He Yuzhu hurriedly raised the wine pot and filled Ma Changyu's cup, then apologized with a smile, "Excuse me, kid. I saw that you looked like a martial artist, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances out of curiosity."

He clasped his fists and introduced himself: "My name is He Yuzhu, may I ask your name?"

"Ma Changyu." Ma Changyu clasped his fists in return and answered simply, "Now I am just an idle person."

At this time, a drinker at the next table interrupted and said, "Master Ma, you are too modest. You are a good fighter in our area. You were a famous escort leader in the escort agency back then!"

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu raised his glass to the drinker and drank it all in one gulp.

Ma Changyu smiled slightly after hearing this and waved his hand, saying, "It's all just empty reputation, not worth mentioning."

"I see you have practiced it before, I wonder who your teacher is?" Ma Changyu's gaze fell on He Yuzhu again, looking at his palm carefully.

He Yuzhu answered modestly, "Master Ma has a good eye. But I have never had a master in this area. When I was a child, I learned a few wrestling moves from some masters in Shichahai, and then I figured it out on my own. Last year, by chance, I was able to really get into it."

Ma Changyu raised his eyebrows after hearing this: "Oh? Self-taught. Come, let's give him a hand."

"Isn't it bad for Master Ma to be here?" He Yuzhu hesitated when he heard this and looked around, worried that it would affect other guests in the tavern.

But Ma Changyu had already stood up, and the drinkers around him also started to make a fuss, making room for the two of them.

"We are optimistic. Let's all make room for Master Ma."

Ma Changyu clasped his fists to the others and turned around to say, "Let's go! Don't hold back. Let me see your strength."

He Yuzhu saw this and stopped refusing. He clasped his fists and bowed: "Okay! Master Ma, please!"

The two men came to the tavern and stood still, bowing to each other.

Ma Changyu decided to test He Yuzhu's strength through wrestling first. He quickly adjusted his body shape, made a wrestling starting posture, and launched several rounds of tentative attacks.

Seeing that he was not young anymore, He Yuzhu held back a bit and exchanged a few moves with him.

After several attempts, Ma Changyu couldn't help but be secretly surprised. He originally thought that He Yuzhu's level would not be very high, but he never expected that his skills were so superb.

He had an idea and decided to show his real ability and teach He Yuzhu a lesson.

Ma Changyu's hand movements changed, and he suddenly took a step forward, slashing with his palm like a knife.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu dodged the attack with a nimble move. Then he quickly punched back, forcing Ma Changyu to take a few steps back.

The two men fought back and forth for several rounds.

Ma Changyu Ma Changyu's expression changed slightly when he saw that He Yuzhu had been keeping a tight rein.

He subconsciously used a heavy blow, trying to defeat his opponent in one fell swoop.

After making the move, he secretly cried out "Not good", but it was too late to retract his force, and he was about to hit He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhui cleverly caught this move and used the force to jump to the side.

After He Yuzhu stood firm, he clasped his fists and saluted Ma Changyu, saying, "Master Ma, you have great kung fu. I admit defeat!"

Seeing this, Ma Changyu's eyes flashed with admiration, and he solemnly clasped his fists in return and said, "Thank you!"

"Wow! Master Ma is still as skilled as ever!" Upon seeing the competition was over, the drinkers watching nearby applauded and cheered.

Ma Changyu knew that He Yuzhu had just given in on purpose, and his skills were not inferior to his. A young man is better at boxing, and he was not as good as before because of his age.

He smiled and bowed to everyone, thanking them: "I'm getting old! I can't compare to the young people!"

"Master Ma, if you want to knock me down, it will only take three punches and two kicks!" The drunkard praised Ma Changyu after hearing what he said.

"Please be so kind, everyone! Old He, give everyone two taels of rice!" Ma Changyu saw them carrying the tables and stools back to their original state, and shouted to Manager He behind the counter.

"Master Ma, you are so generous. Thank you, Master Ma!" Several people shouted happily when they heard Ma Changyu invited them to drink.

The two sat down again, raised their glasses and drank together.

Ma Changyu put down his wine glass and looked at He Yuzhu with fiery eyes: "Xiao He, did you really learn it on your own? Did you not have a master?"

He Yuzhu twisted his body uncomfortably and replied, "Yes! I worship other masters."

"Other masters?" Ma Changyu asked with some confusion.

He Yuzhu explained: "I now have two masters, one is my cooking master, and the other is my medical master."

Ma Changyu was delighted after hearing this, thinking this was a rare opportunity. He quickly asked, "Are you interested in becoming a disciple of this sect?"

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and replied, "I have to be busy in the restaurant every day, so I may not have so much time to learn martial arts. I'm really sorry!"

Ma Changyu was not discouraged after hearing this: "Then go back and think about it first. I think with your current level and your extraordinary talent, learning martial arts will not be difficult for you. Don't worry about it."

"Master Ma, I just happened to be resting these two days. I will come to Qianmen again tomorrow and visit you then. What do you think?"

Ma Changyu was overjoyed when he heard this and said quickly, "Okay! I'll wait for you! My home is in the fourth yard after entering Caochang Toutiao."

Ma Changyu didn't expect that while hanging out in this tavern, he would meet a martial arts genius. Finally, there was hope that what he had learned throughout his life would be passed on.

Although he had taught several disciples, his eldest disciple died in the turmoil, and the remaining two disciples joined the army to fight, missing the opportunity to break through to a higher level.

After He Yuzhu and Ma Changyu drank a few glasses, he put down his glass, looked around, and asked casually: "Master Ma, why is there no waiter in this tavern?"

"It's not the time yet. When there are more people at the party, Old He's son will come to help." Ma Changyu glanced at him and picked up a side dish to eat.

"Oh? Is he Manager He's biological son?" He Yuzhu asked curiously, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

Ma Changyu stretched out his hand as if to hit him, and shouted: "You kid, what else can you be if not my biological son?"

He Yuzhu realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly stood up to apologize: "Manager He, I was wrong, please forgive me!"

"It's okay, enjoy your meal!" Shopkeeper He waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Manager He, you are so generous! I'll drink three cups of wine as punishment!" He Yuzhu drank three cups in a row before sitting down.

He poured the last glass of wine and raised it to toast Ma Changyu: "Master Ma, that's all for today. I have to go home and cook for my little sister."

Ma Changyu also picked up his glass, clinked glasses with He Yuzhu, and drank it all in one gulp: "Okay, I'll wait for you to come tomorrow."
