Ye Feng was a little entangled, he had to prepare something to apprentice, this is tradition, and he was depressed that he had no money in his pocket now, although they all knew that they had no money, but they had to prepare anyway. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The things prepared by info are too expensive, they will feel guilty, they are too well prepared, they can't stand it, their wages haven't been paid yet, they don't have money, how will they live in the future.

Ye Feng inquired about everyone, his mother's surname is Lin, she is a teacher, she usually likes calligraphy and painting, and Yan Lao likes tea. This is easy to do, Ye Feng first went to buy some ordinary old tea, and when he practiced in the morning, he put the tea in his hands, let his little internal qi go through a cycle, and let the tea be triggered in his own internal qi, the old man used to do this tea, he did it many times, and this kind of tea tastes good! As for painting, it's simpler, find an old shop, borrow some pen and ink from the boss, pay some paper and pen and ink fees, and simply make a paste. Ye Feng took advantage of the lack of class in the afternoon, found a quaint old shop, looked at the boss's long white beard, very tasteful, it looked good, it should be very discussable, explain his intention to the boss, and the boss really readily agreed.

The easiest way is to use the technique of splashing ink relatively quickly, about fifteen minutes to get a painting, Ye Feng didn't find that the boss's eyes are straight, now there are not many people at this level for Chinese painting, no matter in terms of artistic conception and technique, the foundation is quite good, and the general level is a good master, now there are not many people who can make some achievements in this, and there are not many people who have achieved something in today's society.

"Boss, please help frame it."

"Young man, if you are willing to help me draw a picture, I will frame it for you for free, and I will not charge you the cost of work, how about it?" The boss's eyes looked a little longing.

It's not difficult to draw another one, and you can save this expense and keep yourself up for a while longer. "Okay."

Ye Feng is also not polite, but the boss took out a good piece of rice paper this time, and a very good wolf pen, and asked Ye Feng to paint, which is quite formal. It can be seen that the boss is still very knowledgeable, and he still knows a lot about some techniques of ancient paintings, Ye Feng didn't think of anything else, and immediately began to splash ink to paint, his movements were smooth, his expression was serious, when he was painting, it was as if there was no sound in an empty room around, the boss held his breath and looked at Ye Feng's painting seriously.

"Okay." When Ye Feng put down the pen, the boss couldn't help but give a good drink, although Ye Feng was not famous, but the boss firmly believed that this young man was not simple.

"Boss, alright."

"Okay, lad, wait a minute." The boss instructed the young man who watched the shop below to help Ye Feng mount the paste, as for Ye Feng's painting, he planned to collect it himself, and usually enjoy it, Ye Feng's words are quite good, with the style of the body, the body is strong and powerful, it is a rare masterpiece, although the ink is not dry, the boss has looked at this painting carefully.

"Young man, how long have you been learning to draw?"

"More than ten years."

The boss was quite surprised, he had such a level at such a young age, which can only be described as a genius, not simple!

"In the future, I will have time to sit in my shop, the old man is also a person who loves painting, your technique of splashing ink, few people will do it, the master of Daqian has this level, you learned there."

"I learned it from my master."

"Oh, can you introduce me if you have time, I want to meet your master and make friends." There are several good masters of Chinese painting in the world today, and the boss knows them, but I really don't know who Ye Feng is talking about.

"He's gone on a cloud tour, and I don't know when he'll be able to meet him."

The boss felt that Ye Feng was a little shirking, and said with disappointment, "These masters are all Shenlong, and I believe that they will meet if they are fateful." Well, your painting! ”

The shop guy did it quickly, and soon took it out, and the boss attached a box by the way, "The young man's surname is you." ”

"The surname is Ye, the name is Ye Feng, you can call me Xiao Ye."

"That's good! Xiaoye, if you have time to play, the box will be given to you. ”

"Thanks, boss." Ye Feng happily took the painting and left, this time all the apprenticeship costs did not exceed Wu Shiyuan, yes, successfully saved a sum of money.

On the weekend, after Ye Feng got off work, he went home with Yan Lao, Yan Lao didn't say anything when he saw him with a gift, as a traditional courtesy, he brought it, and he couldn't refuse, if it was too expensive, just pay him a salary in the future. Elder Yan didn't think about going back, otherwise he would break his apprentice's heart, this was his only apprentice, and it would be even more perfect if Ye Feng was a medical school.

The two of them walked in peace, and when they arrived at the Sunshine Community, the Sunshine Community is a famous rich community in L City, but Ye Feng didn't know, Ye Feng just felt that the environment of this community was quite good, much better than the dusty city, and it was obviously a different world. Entered the community, stopped in front of a two-story villa, the construction of this house should be some years, may have been recently renovated, look at this quaint style, it may be the ancestral house of the old man, and then rebuilt when it was rebuilt.

Yan Lao opened the door, "Old woman, I'm back." I saw a relatively wealthy old woman, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, with a smile on her face, about sixty years old, but full of energy, looking much younger than her actual age, "You sit for a while, Xiaoye, you sit first." ”

"Hello, Master!" Ye Feng hurriedly said hello, and Mrs. Lin nodded and smiled and went into the kitchen to cook. Elder Yan called Ye Feng in.

"To drink tea?"

"Master, I'll do it myself." Ye Feng hurriedly stepped forward to do it himself, as an apprentice, he couldn't let the master do it, Yan Lao smiled and did not refuse. "Master, this is a little bit of my heart, please smile with your wife."

"You kid, didn't you say don't bother?" Although Elder Yan was a little blamed, he was very satisfied with Ye Feng's courtesy, "Are you spending more money again?" ”

"It's not a valuable thing, the tea is ~ left by the old Taoist master, this painting is a graffiti by the apprentice, please evaluate it!" By expressing my gratitude to Master and Mrs., please don't shirk Master! ”

"Oh! Xiaoye, you are also versatile. Yan Lao saw that he didn't spend any money, so he smiled, this apprentice still has a heart, he paints by himself, his wife's requirements for painting are not low, this kid is still very good at grasping the interests of two people, he is attentive, this is enough, the apprentice is already from a bad family, but he can't let his baby apprentice break the bank.

Yan Lao sat down, took the tea made by Ye Feng, chatted with each other, looking at Ye Feng's familiar tea-making technique, his master must be an elegant person, the tea he brought should be good, he is good now, as long as it is good tea, he must taste it well. After a short time of sitting, the doorbell rang in the house. "Grandpa, open the door. It's me, whisper. A nice voice floated in. It's coming, it's coming. Yan Lao smiled and hurriedly walked towards the gate.

Ye Feng didn't expect that today was their family banquet, it seems that Yan Lao is also a more traditional person, although he doesn't want to make a big deal, but he can't let himself accept such a big thing as no one knows, and call his family to be a witness. Yan Lao has welcomed a few people in, one of them is quite dignified, with a Chinese face, and a more serious expression, but there is no indifference in his eyes, but he comes in with a hint of smile and gentleness, with a calm temperament, about 1.8 meters tall, he should be very handsome when he is young, and the other is a middle-aged woman, medium stature, although she is in her forties, she still looks very charming, with the maturity and maternal taste unique to middle-aged women, and the years have not left any traces on her face. It still looks like a person in her thirties, and there is a young beauty in her twenties, about 1.7 meters tall, although she is wearing high heels, she looks taller than she actually is, very beautiful, with white teeth and red lips, when she laughs, her eyes are full of smiles, very moving, she looks like a pair of sisters with middle-aged women, a pair of big eyes flowing left and right, and she looks particularly lively. When Ye Feng saw them coming in, he hurriedly stood up, and Elder Yan motioned for him to come over.

"Xiaoye, let me introduce you. This is my son-in-law Li Boqian, this is my daughter Yan Shuhua, you call it the eldest brother, the eldest sister is fine, this is my granddaughter Li Jiyu. Xiao Li, Ah Hua, this is my new apprentice Ye Feng." Ye Feng saw the busy salute and called the big brother and sister.

It's just that Li Jiyu looked at Ye Feng carefully, calling Ye Feng a little inexplicable, and suddenly Li Jiyu shouted: "Aren't you our school's 'library printer'?" ”

Ye Feng looked dazed, he didn't know what she was talking about at all, but the name Li Jiyu seemed to have been heard somewhere, if Ye Feng had listened carefully to Yan Mumu's introduction, he would not be unfamiliar now. Li Boqian and Yan Shuhua also didn't understand their daughter's reaction was so big, "Xiaoyu, how to speak, I don't understand the rules at all."

Seeing that they didn't understand, Li Jiyu hurriedly said, "Dad, Mom." He was famous in our school's library, and he read books all the books, and he read books as fast as a photocopier, so his classmates in the library gave him this nickname. ”

Yan Lao and the others laughed when they heard it, they really didn't expect that their stupid apprentice would have such deeds, but in their opinion, they love to read, which is an excellent performance, which is also a little embarrassing for Ye Feng.

"It seems that my apprentice is still discerning." Yan Lao smiled, "Xiaoyu and you are from the same school, but two years higher than you, in the foreign language department, if there is anything in the future, I will go to her, she is an active in school." ”

Ye Feng's face was embarrassed, but fortunately, at this time, Mrs. Lin in the kitchen shouted, "It's time to eat." ”

Everyone entered the restaurant with a smile. "Mom (grandma)", a few people became intimate again, everyone sat down with the guests, and Mrs. Lin poured a glass of red wine for everyone. Elder Yan said: "First of all, welcome Xiaoye's arrival today. Come and have a toast. ”

"I also wish Dad a good apprentice." Li Boqian hurriedly raised his glass of congratulations, and Yan Lao was happy.

Everyone had dinner in a happy atmosphere, and only Ye Feng was sitting on pins and needles. Li Jiyu loves to talk and laugh, and the second elder who amused him was very happy, everyone talked about Ye Feng as soon as they talked, and Li Jiyu suddenly shouted that it was not good.

"He is my grandfather's apprentice, he calls me my parents, eldest sister, then I don't call him uncle. No, he's my junior, so you can't pretend you don't know each other when we meet at school. ”

The others laughed. Yan Lao also deliberately quipped, "It seems that this is the only way, Xiaoyu, you will have to call him Uncle Xiao in the future, this gift is not costly." Boss Yan looked at Li Jiyu with a serious face.

"No, he won't be called to death, he's younger than me, how can you call it, grandma~~"

"Okay, don't scare the child, let's talk about it in the future." When Mrs. Lin saw her granddaughter being coquettish, she smiled lovingly and said, blaming Yan Lao with her eyes crossed, and everyone else laughed.

Finally, when I finished eating, I sat in the living room and had to face them endlessly interrogating them, nothing more than how to study medicine, how to go to university, who were there, and so on. Ye Feng could only answer half-truthfully, Ye Feng only had two words in his heart, depressed. After the women finished their work in the kitchen, they arrived in the hall and began a new round of fatigue bombardment, and only the women were the gossipier. Ye Feng said that he wanted to go back to school, but he was afraid that it would be too late to go back, so Elder Yan said that he asked Li Boqian to send him and let him not worry. Ye Feng found that he was really going crazy.

"Ye Feng, you worship my grandfather as a teacher, there is no apprenticeship!" Li Jiyu said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, Ye Feng prepared tea and paintings for us." Yan Lao hurriedly took it over to prevent her from asking any further, this granddaughter is very arrogant, and she is not too clear about human feelings, and some things are easy to hurt, especially this apprentice of mine is still an orphan, and he is not a rich person.

"It's not this!" Before Yan Lao could stop him in a hurry, Li Jiyu opened the painting on the stage, which was a simple splashed ink landscape painting. "Nothing special!" Li Jiyu looked indifferent.

"Xiao Ye, you painted this painting." Mrs. Lin suddenly became excited.

"Yes! Graffiti brush, I hope my wife will not be surprised. ”

"Grandma, what's wrong?" Li Jiyu didn't understand why her grandmother was so exaggerated.

"This is a rare Wu School painting method (apocryphal), which is rare now, and the level of artistic conception is so high, it is a rare masterpiece. Lao Yan, you have accepted a good apprentice, both civil and military, rare, rare. "Mrs. Lin is not a little too exaggerated, it will not be to save face, which makes Ye Feng very moved.

"Grandma, it's not so exaggerated!" Li Ji language is not believed at all, how is it possible.

"You don't understand, the brushwork and artistic conception of this painting are the best choice in the current calligraphy and painting world. It's a pity that the mounting is too simple, I must frame it well, otherwise it's a pity that this painting is finished, and the words are written so well, Lao Yan, you really picked up the treasure. Mrs. Lin was still sighing, and several other people also observed the painting carefully, and it seemed that it was really so godly. Ye Feng still didn't understand. "Xiao Ye, this gift of yours is too big." Mrs. Lin's expression didn't look like she was faking.

"Master, you are too polite, if you think you can get by, just stay and enjoy it, and if you need paintings in the future, I will draw a few more for my wife to taste." Ye Feng felt embarrassed and said with a red face.

"The paintings are like this, then the tea is even more extraordinary, and the elegant person like your Taoist master must not prepare ordinary tea. Xiaoye, don't tell me, it's ordinary tea. "Yan Lao is still a little looking forward to tea.

"It's just ordinary tea, the kind that Master Dao and I often drink in the mountains." Ye Feng still answered truthfully.

"Let's give it a try, Grandpa." Li Ji doesn't believe in such magic! It seems that she is particularly ignorant.

"Xiao Ye, since you often drink tea with your old master, you can make this tea!"

"Okay." Ye Feng was really a little scared, could it be that Yan Lao and the others had made up their minds to protect themselves and not let Li Jiyu hurt themselves, it was understandable for them to do this, and the same was true of Li Boqian and Yan Shuhua next to them, it was too good.

Li Jiyu has cleaned out the tea set, Ye Feng according to the brewing method of drinking tea on the mountain with the master, simply brewing tea, a few people next to him are surprised, the technology of making tea to Ye Feng here should be called art, not only the action is skilled and fast, the grasp of time and rhythm is just right, not more than a point, no less a little, the grasp of time and heat is very good, Yan Lao loves tea, spent a lot of effort on tea sets and tea, and uses good tea sets, especially the utensils for boiling tea are also the best, light the charcoal fire, It is important to pay attention to the heat and grasp the temperature when making tea. Ye Feng took out the tea leaves from the plastic bag, and everyone didn't feel anything special, as if it was ordinary tea in the world.

There is no tea fragrance, the leaf exhibition of the tea is also very small, nothing special, when Ye Feng sent the tea to their face, please taste it, you can feel a faint tranquility, a kind of tranquility as if in the mountains is displayed in front of their eyes, the light and elegant will take them to the woods in the deep mountains, quiet, the sound of the stream seems to sound in the ears, just like coming to the stream, setting the table, simply brewing a pot of tea, enjoying the tranquility of nature. Tea is simple, people are simple, the world is simple, everything is like getting out of this world, and being close to nature is true.

A few people slowly tasted the rest of the tea in the cup, and there seemed to be a different indifferent taste in it, which seemed to have no taste, but there was a vague taste, and there seemed to be a light taste of the stream between the lips and teeth.

Except for Li Jiyu, several other people are tasting cup after cup, and there seems to be a taste of life.

Suddenly, Yan Lao took the tea bag in Ye Feng's hand, and didn't let go, he looked at it carefully, smelled the smell, and it didn't seem to be anything special.

"Do you still have this tea?" Elder Yan looked at Ye Feng with a look of anticipation.

"No, the old master will give me so much." Yan Lao listened to his words and covered the tea leaves tighter.

"Old man, what are you doing, let Xiaoye make another cup, this tea is good, much better than your Longjing." Mrs. Lin still likes this tea very much.

"Don't give. Drink this today. I've drunk Longjing for so long, what should I do in the future! "Elder Yan is as angry as a child." Xiaoye, there are no special requirements for putting this tea! "Nope." Ye Feng replied simply. Yan Lao immediately went into the house and found a beautiful box, poured the tea into it, and put it away. Ye Feng gave this family too many surprises, which made people really a little unable to see through, what kind of person is his old master!

"Xiao Ye, where is your old Dao master?" Elder Yan asked.

"He told me to go to L City by myself, so I went to Yunyou, and told me goodbye." Ye Feng didn't want them to find out his details, so it was better to be vague.

"Where is your Taoist temple?" Li Boqian asked.

"We've always been homeless, rarely in one place, and we've spent it in different places for as long as I can remember. Last time, I passed the local exam for my former orphanage, and after the exam, I got the notice, and the old Taoist master sent me to school, and then I went to travel by myself. ”

"Xiao Ye, follow the old master, the flute, the flute should be very clear! The monks of the Monks were familiar with this kind of thing. Elder Yan asked with a smile. Generally, these worldly masters are just like what is described on TV, and they know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting! ”

"A little bit. However, it is not as exaggerated as on TV, and it is just a hobby, and the old Taoist master will occasionally play a few songs. Ye Feng said modestly.

"You wait." As he spoke, Elder Yan went into the study and took out a purple flute in a while.

"Good flute!" Ye Feng exclaimed, he didn't expect that there was really such a good jade flute, the whole body was dark purple, from Ye Feng's professional point of view, this is pure jade, it is already extraordinary to be able to use this kind of jade with a chill as a flute, and its value alone can overshadow many national treasures, even in the era when he appeared, it was a very good thing. The preciousness of the purple jade flute lies in the rarity, the general use of green bamboo, and later the use of jade, generally need a larger jade, it is very difficult to process, and the purple jade is even more rare, according to legend, there was a piece of jade mined on the meteorite outside the sky to make a jade flute, which is priceless. Its jade quality is the same as ordinary jade on the surface, but its purple jade quality is much harder than other jade, the sword can not be injured, the jade has the effect of nourishing the spirit and replenishing the void, can stay in the face, prolong life, the carving must be a master.

"You know?" Yan Lao was really surprised, this is his family heirloom, "This is what our ancestors got when they were still working as imperial doctors in the palace, and they cured the emperor's stubborn illness back then, and the emperor was like the ancestor of my family who gave this thing to my family, and he has not been alive for hundreds of years." ”

"I heard the old Taoist master once say that the jade flute made of jade and purple jade is very precious."

"No one in our family can blow, and Xiaoyu doesn't love this, it's good today, I can finally see the day, come, play a song for us." Elder Yan casually put the priceless treasure in his hand into Ye Feng's hand, Ye Feng felt the loneliness of the jade flute for a hundred years, and the slightest chill came from it, which made Ye Feng's internal qi naturally react, and when he was reconciled, the jade flute actually made a faint sound.

"Master, this, this is too precious." Ye Feng was completely stunned, and couldn't help but put the flute to his mouth.

"It's just an object, you play a song, let them see that my apprentice is full of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." Elder Yan said proudly.

Everyone only felt a clear sound from the heart, slowly converged into a picture, the calm lake, the bright moonlight, the distant scenery that seems to be nothing, as if to see, and as if invisible, it seems that the sky is raining again, gradually getting bigger and bigger, the sound is crisp, their ears seem to be able to separate the rain from other sounds, and even be able to count the raindrops clearly, gradually the rain is getting smaller and smaller, there seems to be a trace of bells on the mountain in the distance, it seems to be there or not, it seems to be long and short, The sound kept stirring in my heart and kept converging into a simple sound・・・・・・

When Ye Feng woke up from the silence, he found that the others were completely immersed in music. Ye Feng flicked lightly on the flute, and a clear sound of "ding" led several people out of the artistic conception without a trace. It's like a dream, everything is so unrealistic. A few stayed for a long time before they realized where they were.

"Xiaoye, what kind of song was it just now?" Yan Lao still knows about family heirlooms.

"Xiaoxiang Night Rain"

"It's so beautiful, your old Taoist master is really a strange person." Yan Lao was full of regret. "It would be nice if I could meet that old Taoist master."

"The song just now is good, next time you play it, I'll record it and listen to it before going to bed, it's very good." Li Jiyu's words made Ye Feng almost fall.

Ye Feng looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was ten o'clock, and he hurriedly said, "Master is very late, I won't disturb you to rest, let's go first." Ye Feng hurriedly handed the jade flute in his hand to Elder Yan.

"Take it back and play, it's useless to stay with me." Yan Lao looked at the time and it was almost time.

Ye Feng hurriedly put down the jade flute, "Master, this is too precious, so I'd better stay with you." "Ye Feng won't get trouble into his hands.

"Well, you're going to come to our house more often in the future. Xiao Li asked the driver to deliver it. Yan Lao looked at Ye Feng with a smile, he was not greedy at all, although he was surprised at first, but in addition to appreciation, he did not show greed at all, he was a good young man, and he was a good boy who could maintain a calm mind in front of such a baby.

In the farewell of the family, Ye Feng barely coped, walked out of the house, and got into the car.

Li Boqian asked his driver to send Ye Feng back to school, and when they saw Ye Feng leaving, they returned to the room.

"Bo Gan, what do you think of my apprentice?"

"Dad, you have found a good apprentice this time, and you have a good heart." Li Boqian said with a smile, "Calm, atmospheric, and reasonable, plus good talent and talent, there is no more suitable person than him." ”

"yes, congratulations, Dad. Receiving such a good apprentice, I see that his eyes are honest and clear, and he is sensitive and studious, and his achievements in the future must be very high, even when he sees my family's jade flute, he can be so calm, his old Taoist master is definitely not simple, but he himself does not know that he is excellent. Yan Shuhua said seriously.

"How's that! Xiaoyu, like it or not, see each other more in the future, it's not easy to find such an excellent boy. Mrs. Lin looked at Li Jiyu with a smile.

"What! I don't see anything good about him, isn't it just for the, I can learn it. Li Jiyu said unconvinced, "Miss Ben is such an excellent person, and the people chasing me have gone to the sea, and he can't do it." ”

Yan Lao and a few others laughed, Li Jiyu was like a child in their eyes who hadn't grown up yet, but Yan Lao still wanted to see his apprentice and his granddaughter come together, this apprentice was really good, it was a pity to let him go, the fat water didn't flow into the fields of outsiders! Li Boqian and Yan Shuhua also laughed, it seems that their daughter is still young, she didn't think about what will happen in the future, and she can't look at the level of people, in the end, it is a flower in the greenhouse, depending on the meaning of the father, this time it is serious, although they don't like Chinese medicine, but they still agree with the old father's ability to see people, and Mrs. Lin is still very satisfied with this little apprentice.

Back in the bedroom, of course a bunch of guys didn't forget to ask where they went, Ye Feng simply replied that he went to the boss's house for a meal, so that everyone had no doubts, for everyone's concern, Ye Feng was very happy, and a few people were afraid that he would meet bad people outside.
