Sixteen years have passed......

The season is the beginning of summer, the sun is not yet hot, Qian Zhixuan sits in a small pavilion hidden by reeds and long grass by the lake, guarding a fishing rod that has not moved for a long time.

In front of the small pavilion where Qianzhixuan is located is a clear lake, there are many pavilions of lotus leaves scattered on the lake, and many lotus flowers in the lotus leaves are ready to bloom, and the scenery is beautiful.

The lake breeze blows from time to time, stirring waves of reeds and the thin linen clothes on Qianzhixuan's body. The moist smell of aquatic plants and the fragrance of lotus flowers brought by the wind made Qian Zhixuan feel a little energetic, he yawned lightly, moved his body, and showed a trace of exhaustion on his face.

Sixteen years later, Qianzhixuan's appearance has completely changed, and he is no longer the baby who only knew how to cry in the past. Moreover, because he has traveled the world with Hongshi for a long time, his demeanor is very mature, and he does not have the youthfulness that a teenager of his age often has.

I don't know when, the fish float on the surface of the water moved violently, and the fish finally took the bait.

Qian Zhixuan smiled slightly, held the fishing rod with both hands and lifted it up. The fish in the water struggled unwillingly in the water, stretching the fishing line into a straight line.

The strength of this struggle was great, Qian Zhixuan was careless, the fishing rod almost came out of his hand, he smiled "haha", and said to himself: "What a big strength! The big fish is hooked, it seems that tonight's wine has fallen." ”

After some hard work, the fish in the water was finally pulled into the pavilion by Qianzhixuan. Qian Zhixuan let out a long breath, grabbed the fish that was jumping around on the ground, and threw it into a fish basket that was half submerged in water.

"Big brother!"

A childish voice came, and a little fat man ran on the path leading to the pavilion.

The little fat man looked like he was about eight or nine years old, chubby, with short hands and short feet, and he ran like a small ball of meat. He ran to the pavilion, gasped and said, "Big brother, have you caught a fish?"

Qian Zhixuan nodded with a smile, got up, patted the fish basket next to him and said, "Of course, who is your eldest brother?" He lifted the lid of the fish basket, "Little fatty, take a look! Your eldest brother caught a big red-tailed carp!"

"Wow!" cranked out, "Big brother is amazing!

"You little glutton!" Qian Zhixuan covered the fish basket and said, "Those few small fish can be used to cook soup, but this big one has to be sold, exchanged for a few dollars, and then ......"

"Then put on a few pounds of good wine and have a good drink with Master," Chubby said, "right?"

"Haha! Yes......" Qian Zhixuan suddenly realized something, and hurriedly changed his words, "No, it's not!"

"Big brother!" Xiao Fat said angrily, "You and Master are going to drink again!

"No!" Qian Zhixuan scratched his head, "Today is Master's birthday, of course we have to drink some wine to celebrate." If you don't believe me, go and ask Master. ”

"Hmph!" Chubby looked unfooled, "Don't deceive people! Master's birthday only passed last month! Big brother and Master clearly want to drink!"

Qian Zhixuan showed his feet, and hurriedly excused himself in embarrassment: "Little fat is still young, I don't understand, last month's birthday is calculated according to the new calendar, and this month's birthday is calculated according to the old calendar!"

Chubby frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Who said I'm still young, anyway, I won't allow you to drink again!" he counted angrily, "Big brother, don't you know how bad it smells every time you get drunk and vomit all over the floor!"

"Really?" Qian Zhixuan smiled, "Does it smell bad?" he spoke, and suddenly took off his clothes and put them on Xiao Chubby's head, "At a young age, you dare to dislike your eldest brother and master and want to rebel?"

Fat screamed, completely furious, waving his fists to find trouble with Qianzhixuan. Qian Zhixuan laughed loudly and dodged agilely, always making it impossible for the little fat man to catch up.

Xiaopang chased for a while, and was so tired that he was half dead, so he simply stopped chasing, ran to the lake, picked up the splash and splashed it on Qianzhixuan, wanting to avenge being teased.

Qian Zhixuan was hit by the splash a few times, and his upper body was half wet, and he suddenly stopped drying: "Okay! The tiger is not powerful, you are my sick cat!" said that, he also held the water and sprinkled it at Xiaopang.

The two brothers quarreled for a while, and when they got tired, they stopped. After Qian Zhixuan casually told two interesting stories, Xiao Pang immediately turned his rivalry with Qian Zhixuan and forgot about Qian Zhixuan's teasing......

Before you know it, the sun is already setting in the west.

Qian Zhixuan saw that the clothes on his body were almost dry, so he lifted the fish basket and said to Xiao Pang, "Xiao Pang, let's go home!"

Xiaopang answered and followed Qianzhixuan's footsteps.

After walking for a while, Xiaopang asked, "Big brother, you said that because Master picked you up first, you can be a big brother?"

Qian Zhixuan was puzzled, looked at Xiao Pang and said, "Well, it seems to have been said, what's wrong?"

Xiaopang smiled slyly and said, "I asked Master, and Master said that he picked me up first, so I should be the eldest brother and you be the younger brother!"

Qian Zhixuan smiled: "Okay, I want to rebel?"

Fatty smiled evilly: "You said it yourself, do you want to break your word and get fat now?"

Qian Zhixuan smiled "haha" and said, "Okay, I'll let you be the big brother!"

"Huh?" Xiaopang was very puzzled, and looked at Qian Zhixuan puzzled, "Why is the eldest brother so happy this time?"

Qian Zhixuan smiled "hehe" and deliberately became serious: "After becoming a big brother, you have to take the lead in everything, you have to take the lead in making money, and you have to take the lead in fighting, the next time you fight with Zhang Goudan, you have to take the lead!"

Xiaopang's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Then forget it, you continue to be the eldest brother, and I will be the little brother......"

Qian Zhixuan couldn't help but laugh again.

Next, after Qian Zhixuan went to the town to sell the red-tailed carp, he bought a jar of good wine, and then walked home with Xiaopang.

Walking into the door, Qianzhixuan and Xiaopang didn't shout, Qianzhixuan directly uncovered the wine jar and shook it a few times in the wind.

In just a few moments, a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian rushed out of the room, shouting, "Good wine!

The middle-aged Confucian was about forty or fifty years old, with gray hair and beard, several wrinkles on his face, and an old robe, which was torn but not dirty. He is the Hongshi who took away Qianzhixuan sixteen years ago.

I saw Hong Shi looking at Qian Zhixuan with a smile and said, "Stinky boy, when did you become capable?

Qian Zhixuan sighed with a sad face: "There is no way...... Master's fortune-telling methods haven't been able to cheat a few dollars recently, so I have to do it myself!"

As soon as these words came out, the little fat next to him immediately laughed.
