At this time, apprenticeship is a big event, and there is a full set of etiquette, but Xiao Bolang is eager to apprentice, and he is also a little ashamed, so it is much simpler, but the etiquette is there, especially after the three kowtows, if Zhao and Ju take over his apprenticeship, it will be regarded as officially accepting him as a disciple.

Zhao Ziyue stared at Xiao Bolang's movements dumbfounded, and then looked at Zhao Heju who was sitting still, he thought that Zhao Heju would get up and dodge, but he never thought that Zhao Heju had no intention of avoiding it at all.

"Could it be that the little master really wants to accept this disciple?" Zhao Ziyue thought to himself.

Zhao Youju also wanted to avoid it at first, but before he could get up, another thought replaced his original idea.

In this era, unlike later generations, the dignity of the teacher is extremely prudent. Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, for scholars, betraying the teacher is almost an unpardonable crime, he wants to use this Xiao Bolang to accept him as a disciple, but it is a way to maintain a certain degree of loyalty to him.

Zhao Youju did not think that he had the ability to make people worship at first sight and be loyal from then on, whether it was to the children adopted by the family, the subordinates used, or to the right-hand men invited by Hu Fulang and Ou Laogen, he used many means to make them obey wholeheartedly. The idea that by saying a few nice words to them, talking a few nonsense about the equality of all people, and boasting about a period of democracy and freedom, you can turn these ancients into your loyal dogs will either be regarded as crazy or as a great rebellion.

"I'm just an eight-year-old child, how can I be your teacher?" Although he agreed in his heart, he still had to test it: "Xiao Xuexue, you get up, I can't accept you as a student." ”

"There is no elder or younger, and the master is the teacher." Even if he knelt down, Xiao Bolang didn't have many scruples, he said loudly: "The student saw the hot air balloon yesterday, and after going back, he couldn't sleep all night, and he made up his mind to learn these tricks, and asked Dalang to take it away!" ”

Seeing that he was indeed sincere, Zhao Heju glanced at Zhao Ziyue, and Zhao Ziyue took the apprenticeship post and red envelope from Xiao Bolang's hand and presented them to Zhao Heju's desk. Zhao Youju said: "Since you are sincere, then I will accept you as a disciple, but you worship an eight-year-old child as a teacher, and it is quite shocking to spread out, you don't have to be called a teacher, you just need to be called a big man." ”

"Thank you." Xiao Bolang was overjoyed, he saluted respectfully, and got Zhao Heju's permission, and then stood up.

"Save yourself ......" Zhao Heju looked at his apprenticeship post, which was written with Xiao Bolang's words, which had the same name as a famous mathematician in later generations, Zhao Heju smiled slightly: "Arithmetic is the beginning of a hundred work, to learn the science of ingenuity, you must first learn arithmetic." Since you know the Great Yan and seek one, then you have some skills in arithmetic, but what I know is different from what you have learned before...... Are you free each night? ”

When Xiao Bolang heard him say this, he knew that he was going to pass on his arithmetic at night, and his face was happy, and he said busily: "If you are free, you are free!" ”

"Your home is miles away, and if you encounter wind and rain, it is also uncomfortable...... How many people are in your family? ”

Xiao Bolang listened confusedly, the little gentleman jumped when he asked, he told his own situation, but he had a wife in the family.

"You pack up your home and move it to Zhuangzi, I will ask you to find a small courtyard, and Mrs. Zun can talk to your mother, and you will teach those children literacy in the home school during the day, and learn arithmetic with them at night."

Zhao and Ju's arrangement made Xiao Bolang's face look embarrassed, there was no problem in moving over, and it was not difficult to teach those children to read, but learning arithmetic with the children made him a little embarrassed after all.

"Even if you admit me as a teacher, what are you afraid of?" Zhao Youju smiled and said, "If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have time to teach you alone." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shaw Brown immediately surrendered.

"Come with me to breakfast, I'm hungry." Zhao Youju looked at the hourglass and frowned slightly, this kind of timer is not accurate, if it can make a clock......

Thinking of this, he smiled, with the current technology, a very precise clock naturally cannot be made, but it seems that it can be made for ordinary daily schedules.

Zhao and Ju's breakfast has always been eaten with the children in Yixue, and they serve as the fourth entrance hall of the classroom and also their cafeteria. After more than half a year, there have been some changes from the beginning, the patchwork of tables and chairs has been replaced by a uniform long desk bench, and the chalk written on the blackboard is much more beautiful - all made by the children themselves in the afternoon. When Zhao and Ju came in, the children who were originally sitting in the seats and whispering all stood up and stood solemnly, which startled Xiao Bolang, who had never been.

Zhao Zi said that he brought a Mazha for Xiao Bolang, put it in front of an empty table, and put two bowls on him, although it was very strange for Xiao Bolang's appearance, but no child looked back.

"Sit down." After Zhao and Ju arrived on the podium, they pressed their hands lightly.

The children sat down again, and then a bell rang outside the door, and eight boys came in with two barrels, and two girls spooned the bowls placed in front of each child. Xiao Bolang sat at the end, so he was the first to serve him, and when he saw the steamed buns, porridge and two hard-boiled eggs, Xiao Bolang only felt his index finger move, and his stomach seemed to growl.

"Eat when the bell rings." Zhao Zi, who was next to him, saw him like this and whispered.

Only then did Xiao Bolang notice that although many children had food in front of them, none of them had eaten it. When each child had food in front of him, Zhao and Ju moved the dishes and chopsticks, and with his action of moving the dishes and chopsticks, a child who shared the meal rang the bell, and the rest of the children began to eat.

During the meal, the children talked and laughed in low voices, and most of the things they said were related to the hot air balloon yesterday, but none of them made a loud noise, and no one wasted food.

Xiao Bolang was secretly surprised, obviously, although these children were servants bought by the Zhao family, they were extremely educated, and compared with the children of middle-class families, they were not inferior at all.

The gruel is so thick that the chopsticks from the roots of the tree will not fall down, and the steamed buns are also filled with pickles and meat. Xiao Bolang secretly calculated and found that steamed bread and eggs were a fixed number, but porridge was not, and many boys ate two or three bowls in a row. He secretly smacked his tongue, the breakfast that the Zhao family gave to the servants would cost a lot of copper coins.
