Chapter Seventy-Seven: An Undercurrent Swells
Apprentice? Yuan Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and he co-authored his daughter, this is the first cut and then the prelude, and the candidates are all found before they come to discuss with themselves.
He put the teacup that came to his lips back on the bookcase, looked at Doudou and said, "You now have two teachers, Mr. Ge and Mr. Zhu, although your Uncle Mo did not officially accept you as an apprentice, but he also taught you a lot of things, why do you think about apprenticeship again?"
It's okay not to mention Doctor Mo, but mentioning that he wants to worship Granny Yi as a teacher, she wrinkled her little nose and said: "Daddy, don't you know, Uncle Mo taught me martial arts at all, and I can't even beat an ordinary bad guy, so I want to learn martial arts from a master." ”
Yuan Zheng couldn't help laughing, Mo Qiyuan was not good at fist and foot kung fu, but his internal skills were said to be very good. Although he later took the road of the imperial examination, he also practiced shallow moves for a few days when he was a child, and knew that there was no such thing as internal strength for ten or eight years, and he couldn't see the effect at all, and the second daughter was anxious.
"Yuan'er, the martial arts of those guards in our family are very good, and it is not difficult to really want to learn, so why bother to go far?" Yuan Zheng didn't think that the girl really needed to practice any masters, even if she really liked to practice martial arts, it was enough for the guards to learn two or three percent of their martial arts.
"Daddy, people are big girls now, and it's inconvenient to let the big brothers of the guards teach martial arts, what I want to find is a female master, okay. "This is actually only one aspect, the most important thing is that the martial arts of the guards seem to be the same as those of my uncle, so that people can see at a glance that they are people who practice martial arts. Granny Yi is completely different, as long as she doesn't want to be exposed, everyone will only think that she is an ordinary old woman.
Yuan Zheng doesn't want to deal with people from the rivers and lakes who come from unknown sources, such people must have the ability, but the ensuing troubles are unguardable, and after all, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. He tried to coax Doudou and said: "Yuan'er is obedient, it's not difficult to really want a female master, although there are not many women who practice martial arts, your cousin still knows a few, I will ask someone to bring her a letter tomorrow." ”
"Daddy, you often tell me that many people are ruined by the word 'will' in their lives, I can get the best, why should I be wronged by the next best?"
"Yuan'er, although you are very smart, you are not yet ten years old after all, and you still don't understand the sinister human heart, what kind of way is that person, it is difficult for you to see clearly once or twice, what if she deliberately made a trap to lure you into the bait?" Yuan Zheng pinched her little face and said.
"Then tomorrow you will personally accompany me to take a look and open your eyes for me?" Doudou is the best at beating snakes with sticks, and directly surrounded his father.
Yuan Zheng: "......"
"Then let's say okay, let's have breakfast together here tomorrow, and I'll go and tell Chef Zhang!" Doudou was afraid that his father would refuse, so he slipped out of the study without looking back before the words fell, leaving only Yuan Zheng with a helpless face.
※※※※
Yuan Zheng has always been true to his word, although this time he was somewhat persecuted by the second daughter, he still got up early in the morning the next day, and after the father and daughter had breakfast together, they took only two entourages and drove towards the south of the city in a carriage.
Since Doudou and the little fat man were picked up that day, Granny Yi expected that Doudou would definitely come to the door again in a long time, but Yuan Zheng's arrival still surprised her with a little snack.
The preference for sons over daughters in the Great Zhou Dynasty was a common phenomenon, especially for the education of girls, and fathers rarely interfered.
In her opinion, a powerful person like Yuan Zheng, even if he dotes on his daughter, will not personally enter the door of a common people's house so soon. But they did just that, and they only brought two retinues who didn't know martial arts.
This is by no means a disregard for himself, but the respect that Lord Yuan has for his daughter. The father who can do this, Granny Yi has lived for decades and has never seen it.
Doudou came to apprentice today, and he disappeared from the cheeky playfulness of that day, and he saluted Granny Yi in a proper manner, and officially introduced her and Yuan Zheng.
"Ian has met Lord Yuan. Granny Yi was still dressed in coarse cloth, but she did not shrink because of the identity of the other party, she was frank and well-behaved, although her face was full of wrinkles and stacks, her eyes were clear and pure, flashing with the light of a wise man.
"Mr. Yi is very polite. If Yuan Zheng's politeness before was out of love for his daughter, at this time it was entirely because of the extraordinary bearing of the old woman in front of him.
Of course, this does not mean that Yuan Zheng has completely let down his guard against Granny Yi, on the contrary, the doubts in his heart are even greater, why is such an outstanding person mixed in the market, and who is the conspiracy against him?
The moment when the two pairs of wise eyes intertwined with each other had already clashed for several rounds, Granny Yi raised her chin slightly and laughed loudly: "Lord Yuan is really good, Ian admires, please!"
The two walked into the main house one after the other, and they didn't even say hello to today's protagonist Yuan Er girl, but Doudou, who had never been stage frightened, didn't dare to interject half a sentence, so he could only follow in silently. At that moment just now, she seemed to feel an undercurrent surging in this ordinary house.
Granny Yi and Yuan Zheng sat down separately, Doudou consciously served tea to the two, and he honestly stood beside his father.
In the face of such a character, it is not good for Yuan Zheng to speak first, because no matter how he organizes his language and what kind of words he says, he seems to be a child.
Granny Yi was very understanding, and said in her beautiful voice, "I fully understand Lord Yuan's concerns. You can rest assured, I am not a person in the rivers and lakes, but an ordinary person with a net worth. ”
Yuan Zheng's brows couldn't help jumping, not to mention the people's family, even the high-ranking families rarely see such a character.
Granny Yi was unimpressed by his reaction: "I don't owe money, and I don't break the law." It's just that at such an age, he is still alone, and he has some superficial kung fu, and he looks different from most people, so it is inevitable that ordinary people feel a little maverick. Aren't you also an 'ordinary person'?"
I don't know whether it is praise or depreciation, Yuan Zheng choked up, he is an 'ordinary person', okay! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at his second daughter.
Doudou stuck out his little tongue, walked up to Granny Yi and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, don't be angry, I'm a big layman, and when I study with you for ten or eight years, I will definitely grow." ”
A sentence made Granny Yi and Yuan Zheng cry and laugh, this is nothing, the little girl has arranged everything for ten or eight years.
Yuan Zheng's doubts were basically dispelled, this mother-in-law Yi was very arrogant, not everyone supported her, and the second daughter was determined to worship her as a teacher, how could he, a father, not support it.
He stood up and pulled Doudou to his side, and the father and daughter saluted Granny Yi together: "Thank you Mr. Yi for not giving up, please accept the little girl as an apprentice!"
