When Lian Tianqing spoke, Xu Wen gradually became abrupt.

He finally knew why he had been sent here.

Before, he thought it was because of Yao's Wooden Workshop - if you want to restore it, you must first learn how to make it.

But it's not.

He was actually sent here because of Lian Tianqing.

This Master Lian is the object he really wants to learn.

The previous ones turned out to be just tests......

Even Tianqing obviously didn't understand a little, and Xu Wen could guess why if he thought about it.

His current identity is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old peasant boy, and he has never even been out of the village before coming to Yao's Mufang.

Such a child may not understand what antique restoration means.

Even adults of the same caliber would find it easier to earn money as a carpenter, and antiques and other things are too far away from their lives.

In contrast, the current Xu Q&A is so refreshing that it's hard to believe that he really understands the meaning.

"Do you really know what I mean?"

Lian Tianqing looked at him and asked solemnly.

"Roughly know. Xu Wen said, "In the past, some tinkers would go to the countryside and come to the house to repair some dilapidated things. What Master taught me should be similar to theirs, except that the things that are repaired are a little more expensive and the craftsmanship is a little better?"

Lian Tianqing was slightly stunned, and then laughed: "That's right, it's the same craftsmanship." In the future, if you can't get business, you can go back and become a tinker like this, and there will always be something to eat. “

He usually speaks and laughs less, but when he laughs, his eyebrows are sparse, and the whole person seems to be much younger.

However, when it comes to teaching restoration, even Tianqing did not directly teach him anything related to craftsmanship on this day.

He called Lian Linlin, laid out the four treasures of the study, and formally taught the two of them to read and write.

Even Lin Lin showed an obviously stunned expression, as if she never knew that her father knew how to read and write, and she didn't know that he had such a full set of belongings. But she didn't ask anything, and followed Xu Wen to learn seriously.

Xu Wen was literate, but he didn't know how to write because of the difference between traditional and simplified Chinese. He learned quickly and it didn't take long for him to be able to write full ink on paper.

When he was in elementary school, he practiced calligraphy for two years, but he didn't review it for too many years, and then computers became popular, and he played the keyboard much more than when he wrote, and the words were really not very good-looking.

Fortunately, Lian Tianqing regarded him as a beginner, and was slightly surprised that he learned so quickly, and praised him lightly.

Xu Wen was a little ashamed, and he looked at Lian Lin Lin adoring next to him, and he was a little happy in his heart.

Lian Tianqing personally wrote the post and gave it to them as a copybook.

Xu Wen didn't know much about calligraphy, and from his childhood experience, he could barely recognize that his characters had a little shadow of Yan Ti, but compared to the thick and majestic Yan Ti, it looked a little handsome.

Lian Tianqing began to tell them about the history of calligraphy with these words.

When the ancient ancestors used a knife to engrave the text on the tortoise shell, they had already begun the pursuit of beauty. Times have changed, knives have become pens, tortoiseshells have become bronze, bamboo slips and silk paper, and calligraphy has evolved into what it is today.

At this time, Lian Tianqing was completely different from the craftsman in Xu Wen's impression, but more like a well-educated Confucian scholar.

These past events came to him easily, and the famous allusions were casually said, the words were quaint, the words were concise, and he drew a long scroll of history in front of Xu Wen, and he was obsessed with it unconsciously.

He listened too carefully, and after a while, he realized that there was something wrong with Lian Linlin.

Lian Linlin sat next to her, looked at her father, and then looked at Xu Wen, looking like she wanted to say something.

"What's wrong?" Taking advantage of Lian Tianqing's temporary departure, Xu Wen asked her in a low voice.

"That's what Daddy said...... Do you understand?" even Lin Lin bit his lip and asked in a low voice after a while.

"I understand...... Xu Wen replied subconsciously, and then understood.

Just like the situation in the monthly evaluation two days ago, Lian Tianqing's speech was too simple and condensed, without a certain cultural foundation, and it was difficult to understand.

Even Lin Lin is smart, but he can't even read words, which sounds really difficult.

Lian Linlin's cheeks were slightly red, his eyelashes were slightly drooping, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"You won't look down on me, will you?" Lian Linlin tilted his head and asked in a low voice.

Xu Wen was thinking about Lian Tianqing's reason for doing this. He will teach even the knowledge of forest carpenters, and it is clear that he is not the kind of person who thinks that women can only teach each other husbands and children, why has he not taught him at all in reading and literacy?

Hearing Lian Linlin's words, he came back to his senses and asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"I don't understand anything......" Lian Lin Lin said as he pulled a thread on the cushion, a little aggrieved and a little uneasy.

"Nobody understands it from the beginning, and I've just learned something before. Xu Wen's tone was ordinary, not comforting.

And it was this tone that miraculously calmed Lian Linlin and made her smile.

"And you teach me?" she asked.

"Of course. Xu Wen said as a matter of course, and began to explain what Lian Tianqing had just said in the vernacular.

He was originally accustomed to vernacular colloquialism, and he had to convert it in his mind just now when he heard even Tianqing's narration, but now he just said the result of the conversion in his mind, which was very easy.

Lian Linlin showed a sudden expression on his face, holding his cheeks, and listening attentively.

For Xu Wen, this explanation is a review of what he has just learned, and there are some scattered clues that are not strung together in such an explanation, which takes shape naturally, and soon, he also finds fun in it and is completely immersed in it.

It didn't take long for Lian Tianqing to come back, and before he could enter the house, he heard the sound inside.

He stood under the window and listened quietly for a while, as the sun fell through the cracks in the trees, darkening his face. After a few moments, he exhaled softly, turned around, and left again.

"You go and get your luggage. ”

At the end of the half-day class, after lunch, Lian Tianqing said to Xu Wen very casually.

In the past half a day, Xu Wen has a general understanding of his personality.

This Master Lian always looks careless, but his personality is actually a bit tough, and he has to do it when he says it. Otherwise, he will smile and look at you coldly, even if he does nothing, it will send chills down the spine. This is a person who has been in a high position for a long time and is accustomed to giving orders, how can he appear here, being an ordinary wood distinguisher in this old wood yard?

Xu Wen was a little curious, but didn't ask more, just nodded and went back to the chase shop where the prospective apprentices lived.

The place where the would-be apprentices live will certainly not be very good.

The bunk was dark and narrow, and there was a foul smell inside.

The smell of the old wood yard comes from the old wood, and the smell here is the smell of sour sweat and stinky feet. Compared to this, the former is considered to be good-smelling.

Xu Wen was very inconspicuous when he first came, and was placed in a place close to the toilet.

It was time for the woodyards to work, and there was no one in the house, so he walked over and was surprised to find that his baggage had been put in order, and was placed squarely at the head of the bed.

He opened the bag and took a look, and there was nothing in it, only a few old clothes, neatly folded, and not a single one was missing.

Who sorted this out for him?

Xu Wen was a little surprised, and re-packed the burden.

"You're leaving?"

A voice came from behind Xu Wen. He had heard footsteps before, and he turned around unexpectedly and nodded at Lu Cheng, "Why are you back?"

"It's lunch break, and the mahogany field isn't too strict. Lu Cheng explained casually, stared at him and asked, "Are you moving to the old wood yard?"

"Yes. Xu asked.

"I really don't see that you still have such a skill...... I inquired, your family lives in Xujia/Tun, and your family has five acres of mountainous land, and it is not easy to feed the whole family, where will you get the money to ask Mr?" Lu Cheng asked with a frown.

"As long as you have the heart, there is always an opportunity to learn. Xu asked.

"As long as you have a heart......," Lu Cheng muttered and repeated this sentence, and suddenly asked again, "You really have already planned, take Master Lian as a teacher, don't you want Master Yao?"

"I have already worshipped the teacher in public. Xu asked.

"No, you can go back on it. Master Yao likes you very much, and after going back yesterday, he mentioned you several times. He must be very happy if you are willing to re-apprentice......"

"This morning, I have already followed Master Lu Banzu to worship Master Luban. ”

Xu Wen interrupted Lu Cheng.

He heard the kindness in Lu Cheng's words, and his tone was very gentle.

Lu Cheng's voice stopped abruptly. Worshipping the ancestor may not be a big deal for modern people, but for these ancients, it means that it is a foregone conclusion and there is no chance to change it.

Lu Cheng was silent for a moment and sighed: "Okay, it's good if you're happy." It's just a pity. I heard that Master Yao is planning to reorganize Yao's wooden workshop recently, and you have the ability to manage the warehouse, so you may be able to make good use of it. ”

"I see that Master Yao is anxious to find a new apprentice, you can make a little more effort. Xu asked.

"I've worked hard...... "It's not you who is being fancied." Lu Cheng was stunned and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

"The human heart is not visible, but it is naturally revealed. Do your own thing and don't care about others, Master Yao may like this more. Xu Wen looked at Lu Cheng and said.

Twice persuased, Lu Cheng was out of good intentions. No matter what kind of person he is, Xu Wen is willing to remember the goodness of his words. Lu Cheng was silent again, and after a long while, he "hummed" softly.

Xu Wen picked up his baggage and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Lu Cheng say in the back: "But no matter what, it's always easier to get out of the old wood yard." It's not bad to be able to survive a few years of hard life. ”

Xu asked's footsteps paused-

Out of school?
