When he came to the town to do business today, Xia Muhan did not bring his "deputy" Xia Qiaomu and "porter" Xia Maihe in addition to bringing Xia Cao. The two of them had another task www.biquge.info staying at home and being responsible for making bamboo tubes from the bamboo they cut back yesterday.

When Li Tang heard the little servant report that Xia Muhan was coming, he immediately put down the two wooden barrels in his hand, and the coarse linen clothes on his body didn't have time to go back to the house to change. Hurried to the main hall of the reception, for fear that Xia Muhan would fly away if he was not careful.

Li Tang, who didn't succeed in apprenticeship yesterday, was thrown down by the prospective master he identified as a teacher to exercise his physical strength and come to him again. Li Tang was not discouraged by this, but became more and more courageous.

Yesterday, he was under his own identity and forcibly robbed the rice bowl of the small and medium-sized servants, saying that he had all the water tanks in the kitchen in the backyard of their house.

The guy also brazenly asked her mother for the water fee, the daily settlement, or the advance payment! and brought a few new clothes from the housekeeper.

Li Tang: The monthly money given to him by his mother and grandmother on weekdays is still ten taels of silver. As for why he is still obsessed with the few wages he pays every day.

It was because of this little ancestor that he thought that he had to give some gifts to learn from his master, so the master would accept him and teach martial arts. Of course, he learned this set of principles from his father Li Weicai.

Xia Muhan is a countryman, and he is afraid that he will dislike his identity as the second ancestor. Of course, gifts must be earned or done by oneself to appear sincere. He learned this from the bunch of women in the backyard, and every time his eldest sister sent his mother and grandmother a forehead wipe that he had made herself, they couldn't keep their mouths together, and the reward he got was always bulging.

Xia Cao sat in the empty main hall a little bored, looking around at the furnishings in the room. Anyway, the area of the whole hall is larger than her small thatched house, and there is a calligraphy and painting of a rich peony in the center, and the red peony is as dazzling as a flame.

There is a clay pot on both sides of the painting, and Xia Cao does not understand the value of ceramic gadgets, but looking at the lifelike cranes on the outer wall of the jar, I guess it is also valuable. There are also some small potted plants in the corner.

After scanning the main hall, Xia Cao leisurely shook her two short legs off the ground, slowly poured tea with her little hands, and gently shook the teacup in front of her. This Li Mansion is too picky, and a plate of dim sum has not been served for so long.

Li Tang walked into the main hall with an excited face, and saw Xia Muhan sitting there in a daze, his pupils suddenly dilated, his eyes lit up, and he just wanted to step forward and chat with the prospective master for a few words, brush up on his sense of existence, and remind Xia Muhan that he still has such an apprentice.

"This brother, when will your master come? Can you give us a plate of peanuts first? Xia Cao, who was sitting on a chair, jumped down and said to Li Tang, who had just entered the house.

Xia Cao waited for a long time, but no one came, and I didn't know when I would have to wait. The problem of gluttony is committed again, and he opens his mouth to seek benefits for himself.

Li Tang, who just wanted to speak, was cut off, and now he was a little overwhelmed there, and there was an awkward atmosphere in the air.

"Xiaocao, sit back! Here Li Yuanwai's little young master Li Tang. Xia Muhan said, although Li Tang changed his dress, he still remembered the resolute little face of the young man who was obsessed with archery.

"Master, are you here to find me? Have you finally figured it out to take me as an apprentice? Li Tang said to Xia Muhan flatteringly.

As soon as the words fell, he turned to the little guy who followed him and said, "How did you entertain my master, why don't you go to the kitchen and bring snacks and fruits." This is ignorance! After saying that, he hit the little girl's head with his hand and urged.

Li Tang sat next to Xia Muhan with familiarity, don't look at him now that his little ancestor is full of style, he is still a little timid in his heart, for fear that Xia Muhan will not recognize him as an apprentice.

Fortunately, Xia Muhan didn't object to his title, he was a little more fat, looking at Xia Cao, who was malnourished and thin-skinned, and said insincerely: "Master, is this your daughter, my little junior sister?" It's so cute. ”

"Yes." Xia Muhan just snorted lightly, immediately closed his mouth, and said no more.

Faced with Master Gao Leng's ignorance, Li Tang decided to attack from Xia Cao.

"Little junior sister, what's your name? Tell my brother that I'll give you candy! Li Tang said in a rare patient teasing tone.

Xia Cao really wanted to float a white eye to the young man in front of her, how could she ask such an idiotic question, didn't Daddy just call her name just now. But in order for her mother not to give her an etiquette lesson in the future, she gritted her teeth and endured it. Dad's vision of people is too low, how can he accept such a second-class apprentice, it seems that he is also a hard-hit area of IQ, it seems that he will have to give him a few handfuls of walnuts in the future.

"Brother Li, when did you worship my father as a teacher, why don't I know?" Xia Cao asked softly, yesterday Da Shanbo didn't say that his father accepted an apprentice. Yesterday, Li Dashan only described the powerful and domineering scene of her father's archer, and as for Li Tang, a child who is not good-looking, he has only a few sentences.

Li Tang's little face turned red when he was asked, as if he had cooked shrimp, and he couldn't speak: "I...... I ...... "Is it just wishful thinking on his part to say that his apprenticeship has not succeeded?" Isn't this a slap in the mouth, and the little junior sister is too bad at chatting, so how can she suddenly sharpen his sore spots.

It seems that Daddy, a newly accepted apprentice, not only has a bad head, but also has a physical deficiency. Looking at Li Tang's coarse linen clothes again, his life in the house is definitely not good, and at first glance, he is the master who is bullied by his brothers and sisters. She is also a villain, regardless of mental retardation, and also carries forward her father's spirit of love. opened his mouth and said: "That, big brother, you can call me Xiaocao in the future." ”

Li Tang looked at the villain opposite and gave him a look of pity, how could he look as if he was comforting him, and suddenly felt that something was not right, and there was nothing strange about it.

Seeing that Li Tang's little servant who ordered the dim sum did not reply for a long time, Xia Cao became more and more sure that Li Tang was just like she guessed that he was a poor child, and no one listened to him.

Speaking of which, the little guy who went to the kitchen was told that the kitchen didn't make snacks today, the reason was that the little water that his young master fetched, it was not enough to cook a meal, how could there be snacks. At the young master's command, he dared to go back with empty hands, so he went to the purchase outside the mansion again.

Because of such a small error, Xia Cao treated this little ancestor as a soft and glutinous little lamb.

Xia Cao continued to comfort Li Tang and said, "The great task of heaven and the people will surely suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, and empty their bodies,............。 The passage from "Mencius" was moved to comfort Li Tang, and a sentence was added at the end, "Brother Li Tang, I believe that under my father's tutelage, you can still become an aspiring young man in Wusu Town, don't give up on yourself, feel inferior and self-pitying, and live a muddy life." ”

Because Li Tang didn't read much since he was a child, Xia Cao just copied a large paragraph from "Mencius", and he still heard it in a fog, and he didn't know what it meant. He understood the last sentence, and then thinking back to the pitying look just now, it turned out that the little junior sister opposite thought he was very bad!

However, Li Tang didn't want to explain, he was afraid that after a conversation, Xia Cao hit his pain point again, so he had better be a quiet listener.
