Chapter 52: Settle down
The home of the four elders is in a mountain city at the junction of Chuling and Gyeongju, the mountain city is located in Jianglian County, Gyeongju, called Jiangxian City, although the Jiangxian City with beautiful mountains and rivers is a mountain city, but because there are several streams from the mountains, they merge in Jiangxian City, bringing abundant water resources to the nearby residents, so the grain production of Jiangxian City is not low, which is also the main reason why the four elders chose to settle here.

As soon as he entered the boundary of Jiangxian City, he saw the eldest son of the four elders coming to greet him with his younger siblings.
The four elders' family is located in the west city of Jiangxian City, and the neighbors are all powerful people in Jiangxian City, and the Zhang family settled down early, otherwise they would not have been able to buy such a big mansion.
The four elders led a few children to visit the sect leader, but the sect leader did not accept their courtesy, "What kind of ceremony are you still seeing outside, wait until you get to your house, let's see you again!"
The four elders laughed, told their sons and nephews to get on the horses, and the daughters and nieces got into the car, and the group slowly went to Zhang's house.
When they arrived at Zhang's house, the four elders and wives were already waiting at the door, and the sect leader got off the horse and went to the car to pick Li Qianqian down, the four elders' eyes widened, she exchanged glances with her husband, the four elders nodded slightly at her, and the four elders came forward with a smile.
"This is the sect master's newly recruited apprentice, right? She looks so beautiful!" as she spoke, she reached out and took Li Qian's little hand, and when she saw that she was thin, she couldn't help but say with pity, "Why are you so thin?
Li Qianqian is smiling, and the fourth elder looks serious, but his wife is not only beautiful, but also loves to laugh, but when she smiles, it seems that a tree full of peach blossoms blooms.
Seeing that Li Qianqian didn't answer, she wasn't annoyed, she took her and talked to Lan Tang again, Lan Tang smiled and answered all questions, which made the four elders and ladies very satisfied, and looked at Li Qianqian with lowered eyes, thinking that she was probably still afraid of life, so she didn't answer her question, right?
After sitting down in the Zhangjiatang house, the four elders asked the children and nephews of the family to come forward to salute the sect leader, and I would like to follow the sect leader and give them the greeting gifts one by one, the boys' gifts are all small and sharp daggers, and the girls are a set of red gold heads.
The Fourth Elder's Lady was secretly frightened when she saw it, these gifts shouldn't have been picked by the sect leader, right?
She looked at her husband, the four elders were unaware, laughing at the boys playing with daggers, and the girls getting heads, they couldn't help but compare with each other, each set of heads had different colors, but the weight was the same, even if someone didn't like the patterns on their heads, and exchanged with others, there would be no disputes.
After personally placing the sect leader and his party in the guest room, the four elders and the lady bit their ears with their husbands, "You picked those meeting gifts from the sect leader?"
"No, I just found out that I have a meeting with the sect leader. ”
"Although I am careful, I am not so careful?"
The children of the Zhang family all practice martial arts, but each person's expertise is different, some people practice swords, some practice knives, send daggers, so that they can be close to their bodies for self-defense, which is exactly what they want, as for the girls, the red gold head is full of weight, and the various flower styles are suitable for the age of their daughters and nieces.
Thinking that the daughter of the Lan family has grown up in Fengjiazhuang in the capital since she was a child, and thinking of Lan Tang's response, she thought that Lan Tang helped her prepare, but she didn't know that when Lan Tang was in Fengjiazhuang, she was like a tomboy, going to the house to uncover tiles and climb trees to dig birds' nests, she had her share, and she didn't care about the clothes and jewelry that her daughter's family liked, what to wear, what to wear.
In fact, she also picked a lot of gifts, which were given to the Zhang family, but because the sect leader was lazy, the four elders were afraid that their brothers and uncles would make the sect leader unhappy, so they didn't dare to let them come over to see the sect leader, so the gifts that had been prepared a long time ago were all left in the car.
After settling in the guest room, naturally all the boxes and cages on the car were moved down, and seeing the stack of red gift boxes, the sect leader couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyebrows, and he hurriedly stepped forward to explain, and did not forget to help the little master say a good word or two.
The sect leader raised his eyebrows and glared at him, that was Lao Tzu's apprentice, is she good, and she still has to be told by others?
He didn't hide it from the sect leader, he honestly confessed to 1510, and the sect leader glared at him angrily several times before he said, "Call a little girl to help you solve the problem, you are really good!"
"The little master is smart, otherwise how would you take her as an apprentice?" I slapped the sect leader's ass a little, and finally eased the sect leader's stinky face.
After breakfast the next day, the four elders and their wives led the servants over, the maids were delicate and the servants were shrewd, all of them were carefully selected by the four elders and wives after receiving their husband's letter, for this reason, not only all the people in Jiangxian City were invited, but even the people and servants of several surrounding cities were found!
It's just that the time is short, and they can only pick from the existing people they have on hand, and finally got together four big girls, six little girls, and four servants, Lan Tang asked Li Qianqian to pick first, Li Qianqian looked at the people once, and didn't pick carefully, so he directly ordered two big girls and three little maids, as well as two servants, and the rest naturally belonged to Lan Tang.
The fourth elder lady was dumbfounded, she thought that Li Qianqian would be polite, or only pick one or two, and then return the others, but she didn't expect her to take them all, and Lan Tang was the same, better than the daughters and nieces in the family.
After thinking about it, Li Qianqian's previous life was counted in her heart, as for Lan Tang, Li Qianqian, as a little master, didn't say anything, so she naturally didn't say much.
What the four elders' wives didn't know was that the sect leader told Li Qianqian that the maids and servants he picked today were only for temporary use, and if they didn't like it or were not suitable, they would pick it again, so as not to let the four elders not get off the stage.
Anyway, in the future, they will not live in Jiangxian City for a long time, and after finding a place to stay, if these people are not used, they will be sent away, will the four elder ladies still ask questions?
The four elders' wives went back to work after finishing their work, and the four elders went out with the sect leader and Jinyi, and when they left, the sect leader did not forget to send her a bunch of homework.
Li Qianqian practiced honestly, Lan Tang also practiced together, and the new maid and servant woman put their luggage away, and when they saw this scene, they were all stunned.
Not long after, the fourth elder lady also knew about this, and couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder the sect master will accept that child as an apprentice, if we Yuan'er and Hui'er, then we are willing to be so honest!"
My own children know that although they are also working hard, but such a young child, after a long journey, the master did not open his mouth and practiced honestly, and did not cut corners because the master was not there.
"Speaking of which, that child is also miserable, she has no mother at a young age, and her father and brother have not heard from her, she is a little girl, and she finally has something to rely on, can she not be honest and obedient?" The confidant of the fourth elder lady said softly.
"Yes. I'm just thinking in my heart, if the sect leader can take a fancy to our children......"
"The sect leader has a strange temperament, if you really like the young masters of our family, you can really rest assured that the sect leader will take the children away?"
The fourth elder lady smiled bitterly, "So, people, it's such a contradiction, I hope that the children can have a good life, but I am reluctant to let the children suffer, I want them to get ahead, and I am reluctant to let them leave home." ”
"Madam, this is a mother's heart!"
The fourth elder lady smiled, "Go and call the steward of the needlework room and ask them to add a few new clothes to the little master." ”
After Li Qianqian's practice, he saw the four elders and wives sitting on the side with a smile and waiting, "I brought someone to measure the little master, and asked them to make you a few spring clothes." ”
"Thank you, ma'am. The soft and glutinous voice was very good, it was the first time that the Fourth Elder Madam had heard her voice, because listening to this voice, the Fourth Elder Madam couldn't help but take a closer look at Li Qianqian's appearance.
"Like, it's amazing. The fourth elder lady said in a trance.
"Who am I like?"
The Fourth Elder's Lady came back to her senses and looked at her little face, "The little master and the sect leader's cousin really look alike. ”
"Oh, that's of course, the shallow mother is the sect leader's cousin!" Lan Tang had already finished his work, sat on the side and drank water, and when he heard the fourth elder lady say this, he replied.
The Fourth Elder Lady was stunned for a moment before she exclaimed, "Your mother is the eldest grandson?"
"yes!"
"No wonder!" The fourth elder lady understood, she said! The sect leader didn't accept this and that, but he just accepted such a little girl as an apprentice, "Your mother ......" After saying half a sentence, she remembered that Li Qianqian's mother had passed away.
"I've had a few encounters with your mother. At that time, her family wanted to discuss marriage with the Zhang family, her mother took her to see each other, it was Li Shu and the eldest grandson who accompanied Zhang Jianye to the meeting, in the impression, the eldest grandson was a considerate and gentle big sister, she still remembered the first time she met, halfway through the meal, she suddenly came to the monthly letter, she was too young to say, the whole person froze on the seat and did not dare to move, but her mother and her aunt and aunt were talking energetically, it was the eldest grandson who lifted the siege for her.
At that time, she thought that it would be nice to have such a sect master's wife!
No one thought that the eldest grandson would disappear, it's really unpredictable!
Seeing off the four elder wives, Lan Tang looked at Li Qianqian cautiously.
"What are you doing?" Li Qianqian was amused by her.
"I'm afraid you miss your mother!" Lan Tang said honestly.
Li Qian pursed her lips and smiled lightly, but she didn't speak until the sect leader came back in the next day, and she had a smile, and Lan Tang looked at it and put her mind at ease.
In the evening, Li Qianqian realized that the sect leader and they went out to prepare for her apprenticeship tomorrow.
Early the next morning, after eating, Li Qianqian was waiting for the maids, changed into a set of dark color curly clothes, and did not comb double hairstyles on his head, but combed his hair like a man, and wore a small gold crown, looking like a little boy.
Lan Tang couldn't help but say when he saw it, "It's so beautiful!"
Li Qian grinned, and then went to the main hall of the Zhang family and officially worshiped Li Shu as a teacher.
After worshipping the teacher, he stayed at Zhang's house for half a month, and then set off to leave Zhang's house.
Half a month later, the Great Elder received news that his people had lost the Sect Leader and the others!
