Chapter 129: Manpower

Yun Zhan couldn't help but re-examine the young girl in front of him.

At such an age, how can you excel in chess? If it weren't for years of hard work, it shouldn't have been like this at all.

The inquiry in his eyes suddenly disappeared.

It had been many years since he had seen such a child. couldn't help but think highly of Xie Shuning in Yun Zhan's heart. He likes smart kids, there's no doubt about that. Song Yanzhao mentioned to him more than once that his niece was very smart. But at the time, he didn't really take it to heart.

He was more serious, and he was not as casual as before.

Once again, the situation was in his hands.

He couldn't help but secretly shake his head in his heart, the person opposite was still a child no matter what.

However, at this time, the game changed sharply again.

The calm mask on his face shattered into powder with a look of surprise.

Rise from the ashes!

"Who did Miss Xie learn chess with?" Yun Zhan was holding a white child, and his voice unconsciously brought a little coldness.

Xie Shuning broke through the encirclement, settled on a sunspot, and replied with a sweet smile: "I learned it from my uncle and grandfather in the same long room." ”

Yun Zhan said: "In this way, the eldest lady of the Xie family is a middle master. ”

"The little girl doesn't understand this." Xie Shuning shook her head.

She really doesn't know how to play chess, and many times, she just plays with an intuition, especially when facing a capable person like Yun Zhan. Therefore, her way of playing chess is treacherous, which is elusive, and she has successfully aroused Yun Zhan's curiosity.

Yun Zhan didn't continue to speak.

The two were silent and finished a game of chess.

Needless to say, Xie Shuning lost.

But because of this game of chess, Yun Zhan made an appointment to meet Xie Shuning in the afternoon.

Everything was mediated by Song Yanzhao, and he had already mentioned the matter of apprenticeship to Yun Zhan in private. But when he proposed the apprenticeship ceremony, Yun Zhan did not immediately agree, but said: "Miss Xie is a woman after all, and she will be married and taught children in the future." There is only so much I can teach, and I am ashamed that I can't teach her like I did. ”

Xie Shuning listened, and glanced at Song Yanzhao quickly.

Then she strode to the table and made a cup of tea, turned back, and knelt down in front of Yun Zhan with a "plop". Respectfully raised the teacup, "Master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

"I can't do it, I can't do it!" Yun Zhan waved his hand again and again, "Master is better excused from this voice." ”

Xie Shuning didn't care, and kowtowed heavily.

Yun Zhan was dumbfounded.

"Brother Yun. Look at this ......," Song Yanzhao deliberately sighed on the side.

Yun Zhan frowned, leaned over and helped Xie Shuning up with both hands. He said, "That's fine." It's just fate. ”

He was already preparing to settle outside the Guan, and he would not return to Xiyue after his death. But Yun Guihe, who was half a son and half an apprentice, was sick, and he had no choice, so he had to listen to the doctor's words and bring people back to Xiyue. Sure enough, as soon as I left the sandy desert. After eating the food of Xiyue, Guihe's illness naturally improved.

Yun Zhan's sorrow gradually disappeared.

But he has no relatives in Beijing, and his life is poor, so this time he relied on Song Yanzhao.

This favor. No matter how proud he is, he has to pay it back.

Fortunately, Xie Shuning is not a stupid person, and he is willing to teach her.

In this way, Xie Shuning became Yun Zhan's second disciple and Yun Guihe's junior sister.

Yunguihe's vocal cords were damaged when he was young, and he couldn't speak, and he was quiet as if he didn't exist.

When Song saw him, he felt pitiful, so he asked for warmth, and asked about everything one by one.

After Zhilu thanked Shuning for worshipping Yun Zhan as his teacher, he even asked people to choose fresh fruits and vegetables in season, and made a table of exquisite side dishes with farmhouse flavor, and everyone was very happy. After the banquet dispersed, the Song family quietly asked Song Yanzhao that since Mr. Yun Zhan had accepted A Man as an apprentice, could he also teach Xie Yi together.

Song Yanzhao knew that she was a mother's heart, but she could only pour cold water on her.

"Mr. Yun is good at it, but he is not good at it. If you want Yi'er to take a serious career, it is best to go to Chongxi Academy. ”

They are all people who grew up in Jiangnan, and of course they know the ability of Chongxi Academy.

When Song heard this, he stopped thinking about it, thinking about waiting for autumn, so he sent Xie Yi to Jiangnan. I also thought that my daughter could get the blue eyes of a hidden master, which was extremely rare and very happy.

Xie Shuning was a little uneasy.

She didn't know what Yun Zhan could teach herself.

Although her uncle talked about Yun Zhan's ability, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so she couldn't rest assured.

Soon, though, she saw it with her own eyes.

For the first time, she just followed Yun Zhan and watched him teach Yun Guihe.

She was still a little careless, thinking that estimating was learning things from books, nothing more than a matter of family and country.

But who knows, after only listening to a few words, she was stunned.

In this class, what I learned turned out to be the art of public opinion!

- Kan, the way of heaven also; Authentic, authentic also.

During this period, it was profound, and there was so much knowledge that Xie Shuning couldn't help but smack his tongue.

The second time, Yun Zhan talked about the method of arranging troops again.

Xie Shuning was shocked to realize that Yun Zhan must have something in his belly. Historical allusions, customs and anecdotes, wars, and searching for dragons and water, all come at his fingertips, as if he doesn't have to think about it at all. Xie Shuning was surprised and excited.

She finally understood what her uncle meant.

finally understood Yun Zhan's mind that he was unwilling to accept her as an apprentice.

She's just a woman after all.

But no one knows that she doesn't want to be a biological child in this life, and she has been husband and son all her life.

Being able to learn from Yun Zhan, she is very fortunate at this moment.

The Song family stayed on the grange for three nights and then set off for home, while the Xie Yi brothers and sisters stayed for a few more days.

Xie Shuning turned behind Yun Zhan, hating to turn himself into the tail on Yun Zhan's body.

And Yun Zhan was also surprised to find that Xie Shuning's speed of absorbing knowledge was somewhat appalling.

He rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the difficult ancient books, and she only showed them once, and she was able to recite them accurately.

Fortunately, she just knew how to memorize it, and the meaning inside still needed to be explained in detail by Yun Zhan, so Yun Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought that he had accepted a wise and demon-like girl as an apprentice, but fortunately he just remembered it.

Xie Shuning listened to Yun Zhan talk about the ancient times every day.

Song Yanzhao has nothing to do. After eavesdropping on it, I felt obscure and uninterested, and I really didn't know why Xie Shuning was interested. Originally, he just wanted her to learn some strategies and methods, so that she could see things thoroughly in the inner house in the future and be invincible. Who knows, she actually learned from the side.

He turned around and grabbed the playful Xie Yi and detained him to study.

As a result, within a few days, the two uncles and nephews fished together to pick fruits, and they forgot that there was no such thing as studying.

It wasn't until Xie Shuning and Xie Yi were about to leave for Xie's house that Song Yanzhao looked at his little nephew's tanned face and wondered. My sister must not use the family law.

But this time, he was overthinking.

Back at the Xie family, Song saw his son who seemed to be a different person, and immediately knew that it was a good thing that Song Yanzhao had done, and muttered for several days that the child should not be handed over to him. can be regarded as dissipated, and fiercely detains Xie Yi to study and raise white.

Xie Shuning rested for a day. Start getting busy.

Listened to a few of Yun Zhan's classes. She can be said to have suddenly opened up, and many things that she had hesitated to move forward in the past have been decided.

When she came in to talk, it was raining "crackling" outside.

The little maids in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion collected their clothes and closed the windows, and they were busy.

In the second room. Xie Shuning drank the chilled mung bean soup and asked Cinnabar: "I heard that your brother's errand now is only raising horses in the stable?" ”

Cinnabar bowed her head, "Yes, he's stupid." Not very talkative. ”

This means that her brother is ostracized on weekdays.

Xie Shuning put down the spoon and said with a smile: "I can't talk and I don't have anything to do, my brother talks a lot on weekdays, so he should find him a stupid guy with less words." ”

"What does Miss mean is that you want my brother to go and be a servant for the fifth young master?" Cinnabar hurriedly raised his head when he heard this, with a look of surprise that could not be concealed.

Xie Shuning nodded, "Yes, I have already mentioned this matter, and there is probably no problem." ”

Cinnabar was flattered, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "The slave is grateful for my brother." ”

"You are a person in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, you are diligent in your hands and feet, and you should be rewarded." Xie Shuning asked her to get up, "Is your mother still sick?" ”

The father of the cinnabar brothers and sisters died early, and there was only one widowed mother in the family.

"Yes, it's an old problem." Cinnabar got up from the ground, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes with excitement.

When Xie Shuning heard this, she raised her voice to call Yuzi in, and said, "You go and get fifty taels of silver for cinnabar, so that you can bring it back and buy good medicine for her mother." ”

Yu Zi answered, and after a while, she took the silver.

"Miss Xie's great kindness!" Cinnabar really almost cried this time, but when Xie Shuning's face was really closed, it was hard to keep a sound, so she had to endure it desperately.

She took the money and went back, Xie Shuning told Xie Yi about Brother Cinnabar, Xie Yi didn't care, waved his hand and said okay, Xie Shuning made the decision.

A few days later, Cinnabar came to her to thank her, and mentioned in front of Zhuo's mother that her brother wanted to thank Xie Shuning in person.

Xie Shuning knew the temperament of the brother and sister, and expected that there would be this day, so she responded with a smile.

Zhuo's mother didn't stop it, but just followed.

There is a small pavilion outside the second gate of the Xie family, with a wide field of vision, and Xie Shuning met the cinnabar brothers and sisters there.

There were people coming and going, and seeing that there were a few Zhuo mothers guarding the pavilion, Xie Shuning was also sitting there and listening to the kneeling little girl, so no one cared.

In the pavilion, Zhu Dagui, Cinnabar's elder brother, knelt there respectfully and kowtowed to Xie Shuning three times.

Xie Shuning smiled and asked him to get up, and asked him a few words about his family, whether his mother's illness was completely healed, and so on.

Zhu Dagui answered them one by one.

The words are indeed a little wooden, but the victory is careful and honest, and there is not a single word adulterated in the words.

Xie Shuning smiled and got down to business, "You said you want to repay me, then help me do something." ”

Zhu Dagui and Cinnabar, who was waiting on the side, looked at her with some surprise.

"You help me bring a word to Lixia next to the second master." (To be continued......)
