Cai Mao made a gesture and ordered: "Cai Chi, come forward." ”

The words fell, and a polite, pale teenager walked out. This young man was dressed in a gorgeous costume and black boots, although he was only eleven or twelve years old, his eyes were not shocked, and his every move was old and serious, and his manners were polite.

Wang Lei looked at the young man in front of him and couldn't help but nod his head in praise.

He is worthy of being a disciple of a great clan, and his bearing is extraordinary. At the age of eleven or twelve, he should have jumped out of his liveliness, and Cai Chi in front of him was like an adult. Even if the cheeks are green, and even the mind is not yet mature, it is not easy for the Cai family to be able to teach like this.

Of course, Wang Lei couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.

To become what he is in front of him, this child did not have a childhood when he was a child, and he must have dealt with poetry, books and scriptures. Especially Cai Chi's face is pale, his blood is insufficient, and his steps are vain, which is due to the lack of exercise.

If you exercise more, it won't be like this.

Cai Mao glanced at Cai Chi coldly, turned his gaze to Wang Lei, and introduced: "Chi'er is my eldest son, and he can't do anything. Lord Wang is an extraordinary martial artist, proficient in calligraphy and poetry, and even better at marching and fighting. If Chi'er is lucky enough to follow Lord Wang, learning a scale and a half claw is enough to be used for a lifetime. Please Lord Wang accept this unsuccessful disciple and let him succeed in his studies. ”

"Disciple meets the teacher!"

With a plop, Cai Chi knelt in front of Wang Lei.

Wang Lei could see clearly that the moment Cai Chi knelt down, his eyes were clearly flashing with crystal tears. It's just that Cai Chi has already knelt on the ground, and it is difficult to confirm it again.

Wang Lei glanced at Cai Mao, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

During the day, he went to Lumen Mountain to visit Pang Degong, Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan, and let the three of them feel the situation of eating people's mouths and taking people's hands short, and in a blink of an eye, this matter fell on him again.

took the Cai family's Longyuan sword, it is not so easy to shirk.

Once he resigns, he will inevitably offend the Cai family.

Moreover, the Cai family took the initiative to show goodwill, and it was impossible for Wang Lei to offend the Cai family out of thin air.

Regarding the thoughts of the Cai family, Wang Lei can roughly understand.

The Cai family chose to attach themselves to Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and for a certain period of time, the Cai family's status was as stable as Mount Tai, but no one could say what would happen in the future. The Cai family threw Cai Chi to Wang Lei's side and got in touch with Wang Lei. In the future, if something goes wrong with the Cai family in Jingzhou, Cai Chi, who is following Wang Lei, is another branch of the Cai family to ensure that the Cai family will not be destroyed.

The practice of large families is the same.

Historically, the Cai family was loyal to Liu Biao, but the Cai family and Cao Cao had long been in contact. When Cai Mao was young, he and Cao Cao were even better friends.

"Xiangyang Old Records" contains: Cai Mao, the word virtue, Xiangyang people, personality and other arrogant and complacent, rarely kissed by Cao Cao.

After Cao Cao pacified Jingzhou, he came to Cai's mansion and went directly to the backyard to find Cai Mao.

When a big family stands in the world, there must be an intricate relationship to ensure that the family will not fall.

"Disciple meets the teacher!"

Cai Chi was afraid that Wang Lei would refuse, so he kowtowed again.

Wang Lei took a deep breath, waved his hand and said, "Get up, you follow me." ”

"Disciple obeys!"

Cai Chi was overjoyed, respectfully retreated, and sat down at the end of the hall.

solved Cai Chi's matter, Cai Mao was happy in her heart, and she was even more enthusiastic when she talked to Wang Lei. Next, Cai Yan ordered people to prepare a banquet, and the wine and meat dishes were served and placed on the table in front of him.

After the banquet, Wang Lei offered his farewell.

Cai Mao personally sent Wang Lei away, and Cai Chi followed Wang Lei and brought clothes and other items.

Wang Lei did not object to this.

Back at the inn, it was already late at night. Wang Lei arranged Cai Chi's residence, washed up, and changed into clean and refreshing clothes before people called Cai Chi over.

In the room, Cai Chi knelt down and said, "Disciple to meet the teacher!" ”

Wang Lei's tone was soft, and he said slowly: "There is no need to be restrained in front of me, I promise to be your teacher, and I will not let go." As long as you are willing to learn, I will do my best to make you successful. ”

"Thank you, teacher!"

Cai Chi fell to the ground and kowtowed to thank him.

Wang Lei said: "Sit up straight, don't be restrained." After a pause, Wang Lei said again: "When you knelt down to me today, there were tears flashing in your eyes, could it be that you were reluctant to worship me as a teacher?" Wang Lei remembered the situation in Caifu clearly, although it was a momentary situation, Wang Lei remembered it in his heart.

Cai Chi straightened up, lowered his head and said, "Returning to the teacher, the disciple is not reluctant, but excited. ”

Wang Lei asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Cai Chi replied: "Teacher Hui, the disciple's mother is a maid in the house, and my father was drunk once, and my mother became pregnant with me. Although I am my father's eldest son, I am not a son-in-law, even if I have my grandfather to take care of me, I am not taken seriously, and I am insulted by my mother-in-law, and even ridiculed by my brothers and sisters in the house. When I met the teacher today, the disciple got out of the cage and was excited. ”

As he spoke, a trace of hatred appeared in Cai Chi's eyes, which was resentment towards Cai Mao and hatred for the Cai family.

Wang Lei sighed lightly, this is a big family!

I thought that Cai Chi's physical weakness was due to negligence in exercising, but now it seems that it is not so simple. Wang Lei thought about it, since the person in front of him was his first disciple, he couldn't treat it casually, and said: "You worship under my door, your business is my business." Early tomorrow morning, I will send someone to Cai's mansion to bring your mother over, live with you, and then leave with me. ”

"Thank you, teacher!"

Cai Chi lowered his head and choked in a low voice, with a deep sense of gratitude in his eyes.

Wang Lei frowned and scolded: "A man's husband, blood does not shed tears." Put away your tears. What happened in Caifu has become a thing of the past, and in the future, we must study diligently and live up to the expectations of our parents. ”

Cai Chi said again: "Thank you, teacher......" Speaking of this, Cai Chi pursed his lips and said intermittently: "My mother has passed away, and it is impossible to leave with me." ”

Wang Lei sighed lightly, walked to Cai Chi's side, and patted Cai Chi's shoulder.

After Cai Chi calmed down, Wang Lei ordered: "Xiangyang's trip has ended." Tomorrow morning, I will leave for Qu'a. Go and rest, and set off with me tomorrow. ”

"Yes!"

Cai Chi got up respectfully and exited the room.

The door closed, Wang Lei shook his head and chuckled.

Cai Mao sent a son who was not taken seriously, is it the right thing to do? Or is it a mistake? Perhaps, Cai Mao just wanted to have a relationship with Wang Lei, so she sent an unfavored concubine.

……

Early the next morning, the sky was just dawning, and Wang Lei had finished his morning exercise.

After washing up and having breakfast, Wang Lei went to the state pastor's mansion to visit Liu Biao and bid farewell to Liu Biao. Wang Lei's purpose of coming to Xiangyang has been achieved, and it is impossible to delay any longer.

Liu Biao took the officials and sent them off in person.

After sending Wang Lei away, Liu Biaocai returned to the city with people.

In the carriage that the Kuai brothers were riding, Kuai Yue was sitting precariously and said with a serious expression: "Brother, Cai Mao sent his eldest son Cai Chi to Wang Lei's side and worshiped Wang Lei as his teacher. This trick is powerful enough. ”

Kuai Liang nodded and said, "The Cai family took out the Longyuan Sword, this is not a small stroke, we can't afford to compare." ”

Kuai Yue said: "No matter what, the Cai family has the advantage. ”

The corners of Kuai Liang's mouth hooked up a smile, and he said disdainfully: "Who said that you took the lead?" There's still a long way to go, and we have an opportunity. After Wang Lei sends off his relatives, he will go north to Xiangyang, and it is not too late to make friends with Wang Lei at that time. ”

Kuai Yue sighed lightly: "That's all! ”

Calm returned to the carriage, except for the sound of wheels turning.
