Early the next morning, Wang Dong came over to take Xiao Yuting to Zhao's mansion, which was not very far from Wang Dong's house, and he arrived in half an hour. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info They went to find Commander Sun first, and then Commander Sun took him to meet Young Master Zhao Mu. It seems that Master Zhao really cares about the little young master, and he also participated in the test of Xiao Yuting, as well as his baby son Zhao Mu and his teacher. Sure enough, as Wang Dong said before, Xiao Yuting was so familiar with some common Four Books and Five Classics that he was almost to the point of reciting them backwards, and he also knew a lot about many other scriptures, and when he saw his somewhat extraordinary little appearance, he immediately settled down and asked him to come to Zhao Mansion in three days.

At noon that day, Wang Dong took Xiao Yuting back to his home. When Bei Yuchen and his wife heard that their son was really chosen, they were naturally very happy. In the next two days or so, Wang Huixiang was busy, and rushed to make a few clothes, saying that it was about to turn cold, and she was afraid that Ting'er would freeze.

Three days later, early in the morning, Wang Dong came to knock on the door. After saying goodbye to his parents, Xiao Yuting, who had already been prepared, followed Wang Dong to the Zhao Mansion again. During this period, Wang Huixiang couldn't help but tears kept falling, and when she finally sent Wang Dong and Xiao Yuting out, Bei Yuchen was the only one who stayed in the house and sobbed.

Back in the house, Bei Yuchen found that his wife was in his son's cabin, sitting on his small bed and crying, and her son's bed was repacked by her and neatly arranged.

"Madam, Ting'er has already gone to Zhao's Mansion, so don't cry." Bei Yuchen was also sad when he saw this scene, and began to comfort his wife.

"Childe, do you think Ting'er will be bullied by them in the Zhao Mansion?" Wang Huixiang saw that her husband was back and knew that her son was gone, so she stopped her tears, but she didn't stand up, but just raised her head and asked.

"Probably not, Master Zhao's reputation is good. Listening to the description of the third brother and Ting'er himself, the little young master of the Zhao family is also different, very different from the children of other families, Ting'er should be very good. Bei Yuchen comforted. After a slight pause, he said to his wife with a little meaning: "Moreover, there is a fate here, haven't you noticed it, madam?" ”

"I don't understand what fate." Wang Huixiang looked at her husband's expression and asked a little confused.

"Madame, do you remember the experience of this young master of the Zhao family?" Bei Yuchen reminded.

"I heard that he is less than fifteen years old, what special experience can he have?" Wang Huixiang is still puzzled.

"Hehe, has Madam forgotten how we were able to get to know Daoist Qiu in the first place?" Bei Yuchen patiently continued to remind his wife.

"It's the third brother who helped us!" Wang Huixiang still didn't understand what her husband meant, and was a little anxious: "Son, don't tease me, what do you mean, tell me quickly."

"Okay, okay, I'll just say it." Seeing his wife's anxious appearance, Bei Yuchen wanted to laugh a little, but when he thought of Daochang Qiu, he restrained his emotions and said, "It was indeed your third brother who helped us at the beginning, he first looked for Commander Sun, and then Commander Sun went to find the letter of recommendation that Master Zhao wanted." Do you remember that he said that not long after Qiu Daochang cured Master Zhao's back injury, he had another son. Commander Sun also said that he went to find Master Zhao on the day of the little young master's full moon banquet. Then now this little young master Zhao Mu is the child who held the full moon banquet at the beginning. ”

"Oh, I see." Wang Huixiang suddenly realized after thinking about it for a while: "That is to say, now this little young master of the Zhao family is also the blessing of Daoist Qiu to come to this world, and it is the same creation as our Ting'er." Now that the two of them are going to study together, they really have a lot of fate! ”

"Do you want to tell Ting'er about this, so that he can talk to the young master of the Zhao family, wouldn't it be easy for the two of them to get closer." Wang Huixiang immediately thought of a good idea and asked her husband casually.

"I don't think so." Bei Yuchen shook his head and said, "Since it is their fate, it is already doomed whether they say it or not." So I also told the third brother not to talk to Ting'er about Daochang Qiu, he should have also mentioned it to Commander Sun. As for Master Zhao, when he promised Commander Sun back then, he didn't know who we were at all, let alone that Ting'er was the child back then. ”

"That's what Childe said." Wang Huixiang also nodded yes after listening to her husband's words.

"So I believe that Ting'er will have a good life in the Zhao Mansion." Bei Yuchen also nodded and said. Originally, he wanted to continue, but as soon as he thought of Daochang Qiu, he stopped the topic.

"That's fine." Wang Huixiang showed a hint of joy on her face and stood up. But after a while, he said a little sadly: "But they said that Ting'er could only come back once a month, and without him this month, I'm afraid I will be so lonely." ”

"Isn't there still me?" Bei Yuchen said with a smile: "Just treat me as a court." ”

"You're not Ting'er, you're too big, it's not fun." Wang Huixiang listened to her husband's ridicule like this, glanced at him, and her mood improved a little.

"Why don't we have another one? Then there will be no fun. Bei Yuchen saw that his wife's mood was a little better, so he continued to tease.

"I'd love to have another one, but it hasn't worked out for years." Wang Huixiang thought of this, and became a little gloomy: "I'm afraid that after I gave birth to Ting'er, my meridians were blocked again." It's a pity that Daoist Qiu can't find it anymore, otherwise he can let him help us again. ”

Seeing that his wife began to mention Daoist Qiu again, Bei Yuchen's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said: "Daoist has already helped so much, let's not be too greedy." Besides, if Ting'er is more than ten years older, maybe we can hold our grandson! ”

"yes, I didn't think of that." As soon as Wang Huixiang heard this, a smile immediately appeared on her face again, as if she would be able to hug her grandson soon.

Seeing that his wife was coaxed to be happy by himself so easily, Bei Yuchen's stomach was filled with a trace of bitterness, hey, didn't he wish he could hear Ting'er's loud reading sound every day.

。。。

Besides, Xiao Yuting became the scholar of Zhao Mu, the little son of the Zhao family, and started a completely different life.

As expected by Bei Yuchen and his wife, this little young master Zhao Mu is indeed different from ordinary sons, although he was born white and slender, and he is a talent, but most of the time he studies in the study, which is very similar to when Bei Yuchen was still in Beiyu Mansion. He usually doesn't have a domineering look, and he is very polite to Xiao Yuting. In addition, Xiao Yuting's own lower abdomen is full of economy, and he is also smart and studious, which has really brought a lot of benefits to the little young master Zhao Mu in reading, and has been praised by Old Master Zhao in his inspection several times. Although the two are more than four years apart in age, they have also become very good friends, surpassing the relationship between the master and the scholar.

The Zhao family's study is very large, and the collection of books in it is naturally not comparable to Bei Yuchen's family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is more than 100 times. This makes the little guy very happy, and he soaks in the study every day to read a book when he has nothing to do. Even when Young Master Zhao went out to play, he wanted to take him with him, but he let him "coax" him to say that he didn't want to play. You must know that the general situation is that if the young master wants a scholar to accompany him to play, it is an order, and it is impossible not to go, not to mention that these scholars are eager to play. Young Master Xiao Zhao knew that Xiao Yuting wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go to the study to read, because he had a good relationship with him, so he didn't force him. Once it comes to such a few days, it will make Xiao Yuting very happy, and he will not come out when he soaks in the study. Because when he usually accompanies Xiao Gongzi to study, he can't casually flip through those books, and at this time, the entire study room is open for him alone, how can he not be very leisurely, I wish that Young Master Xiao Zhao would come back after playing for a year and a half.

In addition to the books in the study room of Zhao's mansion, there are many miscellaneous books such as poetry, books and scriptures, such as literature, history and geography, Taoism and Buddhism, pharmacy and medicine, Zhanpu martial arts, and so on. Most of these books are covered in a thin layer of dust, indicating that even if someone comes to clean them occasionally, no one reads them. Xiao Yuting is different, these books are also of interest to him. Of course, he couldn't understand most of the things in the book for a while, sometimes he would ask Young Master Xiao Zhao, and sometimes he would ask his teacher. The two men were also shocked by the little scholar's frenzied reading, and at first they were easy to answer his questions, but as time went on, he often couldn't answer them, because many things they had never even heard of, and they were very embarrassed.

As Bei Yuchen mentioned, Xiao Yuting can go back to his parents' house for two days every month. In addition, as Xiao Yuting said before going to Zhao's Mansion, in the case of "coaxing" Young Master Zhao to be happy, if he is homesick, it is no problem to go back in the middle. Every time they went home, the couple was naturally happy. Especially for the first time, Mrs. Wang Huixiang was counting with her fingers almost every day, muttering that she would be able to see my court in a few days. When Xiao Yuting ran into the house, she hugged her, as if she was afraid that her Ting'er would run away again, and her tears were about to fall uncontrollably. Seeing this, Bei Yuchen hurriedly asked Xiao Yuting about the situation in Zhao Mansion this month, and when he heard that Young Master Xiao Zhao was very good to him, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled knowingly. The meaning is very clear in their hearts, and it seems that these two boys are indeed fateful.

"Yu Ting, today is the day when Commander Sun teaches me to practice martial arts, I will go to teach martial arts in a while, are you still staying in the study?" This morning, not long after Xiao Yuting came to the study, Zhao Mu walked in and said to him. When there are no outsiders, Zhao Mu usually calls him by his name, which shows that they are relatively casual between them. You must know that the name of the general scholar will be changed to follow the surname of the lord of the house. If that's the case, Xiao Yuting will be called "Zhao Ting".

Xiao Yuting knew that Young Master Xiao Zhao would go to the martial arts field twice a week, and every time at this time, he was happy to stay in the study and read. So he replied without thinking: "Okay, Master Wood, you can go, I will stay in the study." ”

"Call me Young Master Mu!" Zhao Mu shouted a little as if protesting, but there was nothing unpleasant.

These two people are already very familiar with each other, and in the case of outsiders, Xiao Yuting will naturally call Zhao Mu "Young Master Mu", but when there are only the two of them, it is more casual, and at this moment, because it is the day of Young Master Zhao's martial arts, Mr. Teaching will not come over this morning.

There is a reason why Xiao Yuting calls Young Master Xiao Zhao "Young Master Wood".

One day, Zhao Muqiang took Xiao Yuting to the back garden to enjoy the flowers, but unfortunately it rained heavily, and the two ran to a nearby pavilion to hide from the rain. After staying in the pavilion for a while, I saw that the heavy rain had turned light until it fell sporadically, and by this time the dark clouds had gradually faded away, and the sky began to gradually brighten. The remaining rainwater on the pavilion returned into droplets, falling in clusters, only becoming more and more sparse. Although the two of them were drenched by the sudden rainstorm just now, because the pavilion was not far away, they quickly ran in and hid, so the wetness was not serious. Looking at the sky that was about to brighten again, this little Zhao Young Master suddenly laughed, shook his head and read: "Looking at the rain in the Yuting Rain Pavilion, haha, wonderful!" Then, while laughing, he shook his robe back, and slowly sat down on a wooden stool by the table in the pavilion, and looked at Xiao Yuting proudly while shaking his fan. It's a good feeling to have a chance to have the upper hand in a contest with this kid, and it's more likely to make him eat a little deflated. You must know that although this kid is not very old, he is not much different from him when he studies together.

However, what made him feel bad was that Xiao Yuting looked at himself proudly and did not panic. I saw Xiao Yuting pointing to the wooden stool he was sitting on and said, "Zhao Muchao wants to cover the wood." Young Master Xiao Zhao was startled, hurriedly got up, lowered his head again, and sure enough, the corner of the wooden bench he sat on looked rotten. You.. You, hum, these lazy servants, I must punish them for being lazy and not repairing the stools here in time! Young Master Zhao blushed suddenly, and then shouted angrily. Xiao Yuting naturally knew that this Young Master Xiao Zhao was just talking angry, he had a good temperament, and he would not embarrass the servants below.

Since then, Xiao Yuting often called Zhao Mu "Young Master Mu" when the two were alone, and later in order to further "hit" him. Once he actually shouted "Young Master Wood", which made Young Master Zhao even more annoyed. This kind of title is occasionally pronounced by Xiao Yuting and used to hit him. However, the two didn't have any plans, and their relationship became much more harmonious.

"Okay, Young Master Mu." Xiao Yuting replied, thinking that you can't tell if it's "Young Master Mu" or "Young Master Mu" anyway. Of course, at the same time, Young Master Xiao Zhao often directly called his name "Yuting", maybe what he was saying in his heart was "Rain Pavilion" or "Rain Stop".

"Why don't you go and help me talk to Commander Sun, just say I'm sick and won't practice today." Zhao Mu suddenly thought of something and said to Xiao Yuting.

"What's the matter, are you really sick?" Xiao Yuting asked with some doubts.

"Actually, I don't like to practice martial arts, I often get sore, so it's better to read books and go shopping." Zhao Mu said.

"This is not good, if I heard that you are sick, this Zhao Mansion will not turn the world upside down!" Xiao Yuting shook his head and said. He was telling the truth, if Master Zhao heard that his baby son was sick, he would definitely make a big move.

"But practicing martial arts is tiring and boring, and I really don't want to go." Young Master Xiao Zhao knew that Xiao Yuting was right, and when he heard this, he immediately made a sad face. However, he immediately thought of something, and immediately said to Xiao Yuting: "Why don't you accompany me to the martial arts field, so that I won't be lonely." ”

"No, I'm going to read a few books today, I haven't finished reading them last time." Xiao Yuting immediately shook his head and refused.

"Little Brother Ting, just accompany me." Young Master Xiao Zhao was in a hurry, came over and grabbed Xiao Yuting, even changed his title, and hurriedly said: "Commander Sun, you also know, he is strict with me in martial arts, it's really not fun, it's much better for you to accompany me." Why don't you come and practice too, I think you're a good martial arts talent. ”

Xiao Yuting almost vomited blood "poof", is he a martial arts talent? This little young master wants to pull himself to accompany him, but he can really talk nonsense. However, he suddenly thought of something, so he said: "Well, I think I am also very talented in martial arts, so let's accompany you." But you have to promise that I can come to the study in the evening to read. ”

"Well, no problem." As soon as Zhao Mu heard that Xiao Yuting agreed, he hurriedly said yes. No one is generally allowed to stay in the study at night, of course, if it is ordered by Young Master Zhao, no one dares to care about Xiao Yuting, even Old Man Zhao will let him. It seems that if you want to invite this little scholar to accompany him to do something, you have to pay some money, can the status of the master and servant be reversed? Of course, he doesn't care about this status issue, and the relationship between the two can be like brothers.

"Then let's go to the martial arts field." Xiao Yuting heard that Zhao Mu agreed to his request, but took the initiative. There is another reason here that only he knows in his heart, just recently he was looking through a book called "Martial Arts Botong", which talked about a lot of things about martial arts in the world, including the foundation of martial arts, swords and weapons, Jianghu sects, etc., which opened his eyes. Of course, most of them are half-understood, and if you go to Commander Sun now, you can just ask him. And there is a part of the book that interests him the most about the meridians of the human body, and he is still a little uneasy when he thinks of the strange abdominal pain he has had several times since he can remember. Although the first few attacks were very painful, I was still able to endure it, and if I had another attack one day, would it hurt even more, and would I be hurt to death? At that time, I was afraid that my parents would be too worried and didn't say how severe the pain was, and it would be difficult for my parents to be around the next time I had another attack, so what if something happened? This book talks about the meridians in the human body, could it be your own meridian problem? If you can figure it out, you may have a way to deal with it, whether it is taking medicine or what kind of kung fu you can practice according to the book.

When the two of them arrived at the martial arts field, they saw a middle-aged square-faced man with a strong body waiting for them on the sidelines. No need to ask, this is Commander Sun.

"I've seen Young Master Mu. Hey, Ting'er, why are you here too? When Commander Sun greeted Zhao Mu and gave him a salute, he asked in surprise when he saw that Young Master Zhao was still following Xiao Yuting behind him. Because of his relationship with Wang Dong, he has seen Xiao Yuting many times, and when he was a baby, his parents had hugged him and came to him to thank him. So he has always been close to the little guy, and he also calls him "Ting'er" when no one is around, of course, he also knows that he has a good relationship with Young Master Xiao Zhao, and there will be nothing wrong with him.

"Say hello to Uncle Sun." , Xiao Yuting saw Commander Sun standing on the edge of the martial arts field, and when he saw that the other party asked first, he stepped forward and said, "My parents also want me to say hello to you on their behalf." Today, the shepherd asked me to accompany him to practice martial arts, so I'll watch from the sidelines. ”

"Oh, okay, say hello to your parents, too." Commander Sun smiled when he heard it and said.

"No, Commander Sun." At this time, Zhao Mu on the side interjected: "Yu Ting said that he was a martial arts wizard today, and said that he would also come to practice, and he was going to compete with me. ”

"No, Commander Sun." When Xiao Yuting heard Young Master Zhao's words, he knew that he was calculating him again, and hurriedly said to Commander Sun: "Where am I a martial arts wizard, I guess I can't even count as a mediocre talent." ”

"Young Master Mu laughed, you are much older than Ting'er, how can he compete with you. But.. Commander Sun said a word to Young Master Xiao Zhao, and then turned to Xiao Yuting and said, "Ting'er, you are not wrong, I think you are indeed a good material for martial arts." ”

"Commander Sun must be laughing at Ting'er, where am I the material for martial arts." Xiao Yuting shook his little head and said, "I'm only here to accompany Young Master Mu today, but I have some questions about martial arts that I would like to ask Commander Sun." ”

"Oh, if you want to ask me about martial arts, how can you better understand martial arts if you don't practice martial arts?" Commander Sun asked very puzzled.

"I read a book about martial arts, and I didn't understand something." Xiao Yuting replied.

Commander Sun was a little speechless, there are such children, who are only interested in books on martial arts, is this the so-called paper martial arts?

"That's it," he thought for a moment, and said, "Since Ting'er is here, I'll teach you a lesson, and it won't take much trouble." Then when Young Master Mu and you finish practicing, how about I answer your question again? ”

"Yes, Ting'er," Young Master Zhao also shouted "Ting'er" as Commander Sun followed: "The relationship between the two of us is so good, you can also come and practice." Hehe, although I can't compare to you in reading, you are inferior to me in martial arts. "Obviously, he's using the agitation method.

Xiao Yuting glanced at Young Master Xiao Zhao, quickly thought for a while, and then asked Commander Sun: "It's okay to practice, but I want to know why you say that I am a martial arts material?" ”

"Ting'er, you really have a lot of problems, just start practicing directly." Young Master Xiao Zhao heard that Xiao Yuting had come to ask questions again, and he shouted helplessly.

"First of all, Ting'er, you worked with your third uncle, right?" Commander Sun was relieved when he heard Xiao Yuting, and said with some satisfaction: "You must know that many aspects of blacksmith work have something in common with martial arts, such as pulling the bellows, standing and swinging when swinging the hammer, and breath-holding, all of which can exercise your body. ”

Xiao Yuting didn't answer, just nodded, it is true that he has some insights after training in the third uncle's blacksmith shop, and his body is much stronger than ordinary children.

"In addition, I see that your steps below you are agile, your arms are stretched, and your eyes are sharp, which are very helpful to those who practice martial arts." Commander Sun continued: "So I think it's really a pity that you don't practice martial arts. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yuting didn't react, but Young Master Xiao Zhao opened his mouth and was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xiao Yuting again from head to toe, as if he was looking at someone he didn't know. "I said Ting'er, I can't see that you are still a hidden master!" Then he shook his head and said.

Xiao Yuting glanced at Young Master Zhao again, and said in his heart: "It's mainly for the sake of you that you can let me go to the study at night to practice martial arts, what kind of person is high, it's better to read more books in the study." ”

In addition, he thought that Commander Sun still had to answer questions about martial arts for himself, so he said: "Okay, I'll practice, but just practice whatever you want, don't work too hard." ”
