Siheyuan: I just like to stir up trouble

"Well, you lead the disciples to practice Huashan swordsmanship!"

Ning Zhongze said nothing more when he saw Linghu Chong admit his mistake, and turned back to the back hall.

"Mr. Lin, can I call you Brother Lin?"

Yue Lingshan asked with a smile after leading Lin Fan to the room.

"Of course you can. Your mother is leading your fellow apprentices to attend morning classes. Why don't you go? Are you taking the opportunity of sending me to my room to slack off?"

At this time, Lin Fan and Yue Lingshan were sitting at the table chatting.

"No, I am the most hardworking one, and besides my senior brother, I also have the best talent. Now I should be ranked fourth in Huashan Sect in terms of strength. After my father, mother and senior brother, I am the next one!"

Yue Lingshan said with her head held high with some pride.

Lin Fan wanted to laugh after hearing this. Where did you put Feng Qingyang? Even if Feng Qingyang was not included, there was still Lao Denuo. He came to the apprentice with his skills. As a spy from Songshan, he could still deal with Yue Lingshan.

"But I'm also on Mount Hua now, shouldn't you include me in the list? Where do you think my martial arts ability ranks?"

Lin Fan suddenly asked with a smile.

"I don't know about that either. Anyway, Brother Lin should be in the top three. However, Brother Lin is not from Huashan, so he can't be counted in. Unless Brother Lin joins Huashan, or..."

As Yue Lingshan was talking, she suddenly blushed and stopped talking.

"Or what?"

Lin Fan asked with great interest.

"Oh, I'm embarrassed to say this, Brother Lin, please teach me how to practice swordplay. I also want to become as strong as you!"

Yue Lingshan was unable to say the following words, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Swordsmanship? Well, show me how to use it!"

Lin Fan and Yue Lingshan came outside the house, and Yue Lingshan began to practice Huashan swordsmanship.

"White clouds emerge from the mountains, a phoenix arrives, the sky is hanging upside down, a white rainbow pierces the sun, and the pine trees welcome guests..."

Yue Lingshan performed all of the Huashan sword techniques, then rolled her eyes and attacked Lin Fan.

Lin Fan smiled, and a Longquan sword suddenly appeared in his hand. He then used Tai Chi sword techniques to stick to Yue Lingshan's sword and practiced sword moves with her.

When Ning Zhongze arrived here, she saw Lin Fan and Yue Lingshan performing a kind of "affectionate" sword technique. This surprised her. How could the two of them develop so quickly? Were they so spiritually connected? They had a combined sword technique so quickly.

However, she did not say anything, but turned around and left silently. Lin Fan was a rare young talent. If her daughter really liked him, she would not object. In the end, no matter whether Yue Lingshan chose Lin Fan or Linghu Chong, she could accept it.

"Brother Lin, what kind of swordsmanship is this? You are so shameless. You stick to my sword and I can't get away from it at all."

Yue Lingshan looked at Lin Fan in surprise; the Tai Chi sword technique really opened her eyes.

In fact, Lin Fan's Tai Chi sword is a product of his mastery of traditional Chinese martial arts, so his moves are not complete and there is no corresponding mental method. He can only fool Yue Lingshan.

Chapter 404: The Return of the Silly Zhu

"This is Tai Chi sword. It has lost its essence and is just empty sword moves."

After Lin Fan retracted his sword, he began to explain to Yue Lingshan.

"But Brother Lin, isn't Tai Chi Sword a Wudang unique skill? How do you know how to do it?"

"I got this by chance, so I said it has lost its essence!"

"So that's how it is. Then Brother Lin, you should take a rest. I have to go to morning class. Otherwise, my mother will come over later!"

Yue Lingshan then realized that she had stayed with Lin Fan for too long, and if she didn't go back, her mother would come looking for her.

"Here, this candy is for you!"

Lin Fan took out a lolly from his arms and handed it to Yue Lingshan. This was something he had conjured up using a gourmet tablecloth. At this moment, there were a lot of food and drinks in his space.

"Is this candy? Thank you, Brother Lin!"

Yue Lingshan was a little surprised when she saw the colorful lollipops in her hand, and then she thanked him obediently.

"go quickly!"

"Goodbye, Brother Lin!"

Yue Lingshan skipped away with the lollipops in her hand, while Lin Fan went back to the house, locked the door, and returned to the courtyard world.

"Brother Lin Fan, let's go to work!"

At this time, Fang Meng, who had finished washing the dishes, came out and said to Lin Fan.

"Let's go!"

Lin Fan and Fang Meng rode their bikes to the steel mill carrying a large bag of stuff.

"Here we come, Mr. Lin!"

"Good morning, Mr. Lin!"

From the moment Lin Fan entered the steel rolling mill, co-workers began to greet him, and Lin Fan nodded in response.

"Brother Lin Fan, I'm going back to the broadcasting room!"

At the door of a workshop, Fang Meng said goodbye to Lin Fan and left. Lin Fan walked into the workshop and began to distribute peanuts, melon seeds and candies to his familiar co-workers.

Of course he can't give it to everyone. This is a large factory with tens of thousands of employees. How much money would it cost if everyone gave it?

"Good morning, Dad!"

"Good morning, Xiao Meng, how are you? Are you feeling well?"

After delivering the items, Lin Fan returned to his workstation and greeted Fang Dahai.

"No, don't worry, Dad. It's still early. When Meng'er's belly gets bigger and it's inconvenient for her to move, I will apply for maternity leave for her!"

Hearing this, Lin Fan said with a bit of a smile on his face.

"That's fine by me. You're an engineer, Director Yang has to give you this face. By the way, why haven't you received your engineer certificate yet? By then, you won't have to work in the workshop anymore!"

"This may require some procedures, but there is no need to rush. Sitting in the office will only make you bored!"

Lin Fan didn’t know when he would get his engineer certificate, but he was not in a hurry. It was easier to gain emotion points in the workshop.

"You, everyone considers being an engineer an honor and working in an office as a symbol of status, but you are the only one who doesn't care about anything. You don't act like a 20-year-old young man!"

Fang Dahai felt that Lin Fan seemed to have seen through the world at such a young age, which was not good. Young people should be full of vigor and enthusiasm.

"I'm already a father, so of course I should be more mature!"

Lin Fan said confidently.

"You have always been like this. You haven't changed since I first met you. You don't care about anything. You weren't married at that time!"

Fang Dahai couldn't help but expose Lin Fan. He knew that Lin Fan had always been like this.

"Then you are wrong. I value Meng'er very much. I just don't care much about material life. As the old saying goes, the more a person lacks something, the more he wants it. I have no worries about food and clothing, and I am content with a small fortune, so I don't care much about this aspect!"

Lin Fan explained with a smile.

"Lin Fan, what you said is really heartbreaking. How can we, who are struggling to make ends meet and only think about getting rich, feel this way?"

Before Fang Dahai could say anything, the worker next to him spoke in a resentful tone.

"It's great that you have the idea of getting rich. Desire is the driving force. Otherwise, if you just eat and wait for death, how can your life get better and better? Of course, if you have the material foundation like me, then it doesn't matter if you start to lie down and enjoy life."

Lin Fan did not try to discourage his co-workers' enthusiasm. He could be a lazy guy himself, but he could not make others lazy as well.

"Hahaha, we don't want to be Engineer Lin anymore in this life. I will be satisfied as long as I can become a level 5 fitter!"

Due to limited talent, most people spend their entire lives hovering around level three or four fitters. Level five fitters are already considered pretty good, so they aren't greedy and just want to be able to reach level five fitters.

Lin Fan and Fang Dahai looked at each other and didn't continue the conversation. This question was difficult to answer.

If you admit that others have poor talents, it seems like you look down on them. But if you say against your will that others have a better future, it seems hypocritical.

So Lin Fan and Fang Dahai buried their heads in their work, ignoring everything else outside and focusing solely on the locksmith work.

A daily routine at the steel mill passed by uneventfully, with nothing special happening.

When they got off work, Lin Fan and Fang Meng rode their bikes away from the steel mill.

What was surprising was that Sha Zhu actually came back. Shouldn't he have been detained for three more days? How come he came back after only one more day?

"Silly Zhu, did you escape from prison?"

Lin Fan started joking with Sha Zhu who walked into the yard.

"You must be joking. I'll only be in prison for a few days. It's not a death sentence. Why would I want to escape from prison?"

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu looked at Lin Fan with some dissatisfaction.

"But I heard from Yan Jiecheng that you were detained for three extra days because of fighting!"

"Since we can add a few days, we can naturally subtract a few days!"

Sha Zhu raised his head with some pride. It seemed that he was very proud that he could come out two days earlier.

"You should go back and see your wife!"

Lin Fan interrupted Sha Zhu's complacency in an unpleasant manner.

"What happened to my wife?"

"Let me remind you, Yan Jiecheng's wife Yu Li has already gone back to her parents' home out of anger. As for your wife, think about it yourself!"

"what?"
