Chapter 31: The Glass Workshop (2)
There was a voice of angry reprimand from the direction outside the door, Ji Yan was thinking about whose little girl was so spicy and bold, but before meeting him, the young man who was originally squatting stumbled, sat on the ground with his ass as soon as his legs were weak, and then ran into the inner room without a trace.
The people inside and outside the workshop seemed to be accustomed to this meeting, and they were not surprised, so they turned their heads to look at the young man, smiled, and did not say much.
This aroused Ji Yan's curiosity, he walked out of the workshop, and asked the reception apprentice who was enjoying the shade in the courtyard, who was shouting outside, why did he scare that young man like this?
The reception apprentice covered his mouth, smiled and whispered: "The one who came to find someone outside is the baby girl of one of the owners of our kiln factory, named Song Qingqing, and the brother named Ruan Xiaoyi just now, is actually the son of our other owner." The two of them have been friends for generations, and they also run this kiln factory together, and their parents have already made a marriage contract for the two of them. But we, the young master of the Ruan family, don't like to read, so we either came to this workshop to burn glass, or followed his uncle to run the boat. That Song Qingqing and Young Master Ruan's childhood sweethearts, probably found out that he didn't go to the school today, and guessed that he came here, so he came to the door to ask for someone. They are a couple, and one play is staged at two ends in three days. ”
After hearing this, Ji Yan's heart flashed, and he asked the apprentice again, "What is the level of this young master of the Ruan family in making glass, you tell the truth, there is no one else at this time." ”
The apprentice smiled and said: "If you want to say that this young master of the Ruan family, it is also strange, except for the four books and five classics that are not in the right way, the others, whether it is burning glaze or going to sea to run a boat, are all good hands, oh, by the way, our young master Ruan will also have some punches and kicks." ”
Knowing how to burn glass, knowing how to go to sea, and knowing kung fu, Ji Yan After hearing this, not only did his heart flash, his whole eyes lit up, he estimated that Ruan Xiaoyi should still be Ruan Zhong's relative, so he should have already known his name Ji Yan, this is a talent who is one in a million.
This kind of talent has a very good destination, which is to recruit him to be his little brother.
Ji Yan asked again: "Then why doesn't this Ruan Gongzi like to go to the academy to study?" ”
The apprentice replied: "I don't know about this, according to Young Master Ruan himself, he was always scolded by Mr., his father, one of our owners, also had high expectations for him, so he was strict, but he just couldn't study, fifteen or sixteen, he didn't even take the children's exam, and he was late for the exam." was scolded by his father for being a bloody dog, saying that he couldn't catch up with the heat when he ate. ”
Ji Yan has already understood, it is estimated that this child was forced by his parents, and he has already developed a rebellious psychology towards reading, and then it is a vicious circle. The more pressure parents have, the more tired they are of school, the more tired they are of school, and the more anxious parents are, the greater the pressure they have.
Ji Yan looked at the apprentice and said with a smile: "You said that Song Qingqing at the door is also the daughter of one of your owners, why don't you go to receive it?" ”
The apprentice then remembered this, patted his thigh, he patronized and greeted Ji Yan, thinking that he could make a deal, forgetting to take care of the aunt at the door, and hurriedly said goodbye to Ji Yan, turned around and ran out of the door.
After listening to this apprentice's introduction, Ji Yan thought to himself that this Young Master Ruan should be some relative of Ruan Zhong, which is convenient, and he can talk to him first.
He paced into the back room and found Ruan Xiaoyi, who was hiding in the house and squatting in a corner, and also squatted next to him.
So at this time, this back room is very much like a men's toilet, and two people squatting in the pit are communicating.
Ji Yan asked Ruan Xiaoyi: "Are you Ruan Xiaoyi, surnamed Ruan, and a descendant of the Ruan brothers, the heroes of Shuibo Liangshan?" ”
Ruan Xiaoyi didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this person's gourd, so he only replied frankly: "Yes, we are a big family, and all the relatives and friends of the clan live here." ”
Ji Yan was already a little proud in his heart, and asked again: "Then do you know Ruan Zhong?" ”
Ruan Xiaoyi was even more confused, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know my third uncle?" Do you know him? ”
Ji Yan suppressed the joy in his heart very hard, he could already imagine the scene of the young man in front of him shining in his eyes and worshiping the five bodies after announcing his name for a while.
He then asked, "Then your third uncle, Ruan Zhong, did you mention that he went to Ryukyu to work with others to arrest the Japanese invaders?" ”
Ruan Xiaoyi is completely confused now, what is the origin of this person, could it be that he was the insider at that time? Or is he the big hero described by the third uncle? Ruan Xiaoyi couldn't believe his eyes.
Of course, he had heard that Uncle Ruan Zhong had worked together with the people of the imperial court in the Ryukyus to arrest the Japanese in the Ryukyus a few months ago, especially the way Ruan Zhong described the story was even more legendary, and these maritime families were deeply affected by the invasion of the Japanese bandits, and they were extremely eager for someone to stand up for them, so after the trip to the Ryukyus, these maritime merchants regarded the people who participated in the operation at that time as heroes.
Ruan Xiaoyi's eyes lit up and he smiled, he stared at Ji Yan intently and said, "Could it be that you are the big hero who captured the Japanese in the Ryukyus with the third uncle at that time?" ”
Ji Yan heard others call himself a "big hero", and the emotions that had been laid out for a long time finally broke out, he was proud, and his heart was already smiling, but the muscles on his face remained reserved, and he only smiled and nodded: "That's right, I am ......"
Ruan Xiaoyi's eyes widened, his pupils dilated, he stood up excitedly, even pulled Ji Yan up, grabbed Ji Yan's arm, stared at Ji Yan's face, and said a little incoherently:
"Captain Jinyi Weimei? Big hero Mei Yuning, is that you? ”
After listening to Ruan Xiaoyi's answer, Ji Yan almost wanted to shake his head and stomp his feet, and immediately set off back to Nanjing, away from these Shandong people who were not real at all.
Ruan Xiaoyi looked at Ji Yan's reaction, Rao is he was a little sluggish, his reaction was not fast, and he could see that this person was not Mei Yuning, his emotions also fell from the top to the bottom, his hand was also released, and he said: "You are not Captain Mei, so who are you?" ”
Ji Yan replied angrily: "Did your third uncle only tell you about Mei Yuning alone?" ”
Ruan Xiaoyi was still depressed, and responded: "Oh, there is another ......"
Ji Yan listened, if what came out of his mouth was "Lin Anhe", he would immediately turn around and leave, return to Beijing, and then go to another place to find another Liuli.
This time he didn't disappoint Ji Yan again, Ruan Xiaoyi replied: "There is another person named Ji Yan. ”
As soon as Ji Yan rekindled a little interest, and wanted to ask him how he heard about him, he was splashed with a basin of cold and biting water by Ruan Xiaoyi's next words, as if it had snowed him in June, only to hear Ruan Xiaoyi say with disgust: "You are Ji Yan, you don't know martial arts, don't you just play tricks." ”
Ji Yan thought to himself: I don't know martial arts, you should feel lucky, if I know martial arts, I'm afraid you have fallen in a pool of blood at this moment.
