Chapter 24: No more apprenticeship
Bao Zhilin was as calm as ever, Wu Xian was fiddling with herbs in the courtyard, Huang Qiying was treating people in the inner hall, and there were still no disciples here who came to practice martial arts. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Master, the eldest disciple Ye Shaolong is here to report to you." Ye Shaolong glanced at the door, and tiptoed behind Wu Xian before speaking.
Although Wu Xian had her back to Ye Shaolong, she obviously noticed the movement behind her early in the morning and was not frightened by Ye Shaolong's pranks. When he turned around, he also glanced at him by the way, and then said with a smile: "You kid is still so impetuous, eighteen years old is not too young, you should take care of yourself and make a living." ”
"What the master taught me is, no, today is to complete the ceremony of apprenticeship, learn exquisite medical skills from the master, and help the world!" Ye Shaolong has a hippie smile, with his expression, it is difficult to be convinced.
Wu Xian knew Ye Shaolong's identity and also understood the situation of the Ye family, as far as his father who was one of the richest people in the provincial city, as long as Ye Shaolong did not deliberately squander, there would be no problem with prosperity and wealth for a lifetime.
What she said just now was just a casual remark, and when Wu Xian learned that Ye Shaolong was coming to apprentice, the look on her face flickered for a moment, and then she looked back at her husband who was sending the patient in the hall. Only then did he say: "This apprenticeship, your master is still against it, or you will come when you are free in the future, I will teach you whatever you want to learn, anyway, we are not bad for such a ceremony as apprenticeship." ”
As soon as he heard this, Ye Shaolong knew that it was Huang Qiying who was obstructing it, but as Wu Xian said, he was indeed not bad at such a ceremony. With his relationship with his master, what he wants to learn is not easy to grasp!
Besides, he didn't care so much about this matter in his heart, and the key was not because of Su Xiaocao. In the past, he may have insisted on apprenticeship because he was angry with Huang Qiying, but since Su Xiaocao appeared, Ye Shaolong had already changed his mind.
Especially when he learned that Su Xiaocao would not come to apprentice again, his interest immediately dropped to the lowest point. He is still a little interested in learning some kung fu to defend himself with Huang Qiying as his teacher, but if he really wants to learn any medical skills, then he has no hope.
When Ye Shaolong thought of Su Xiaocao, he carefully observed Wu Xian and found that she didn't seem to know that something had happened to Su Xiaocao. said casually: "Shi Niang knows that something happened to Su Xiaocao, and her father was scattered in his house yesterday. ”
Wu Xian didn't have time to speak, but Huang Qiying hurriedly came here with a black face, and her mouth was questioning: "What happened to Su Xiaocao, is it because of you?" ”
Ye Shaolong rolled his eyes directly, turned his head and was too lazy to look at Huang Qiying, saying that this Huang Qiying is obviously a thousand miles different from the image of the film and television works in his previous life. And Ye Shaolong can only attribute all this to his young relationship at present, after all, everyone has to experience such a young and vigorous era.
After this conclusion, Ye Shaolong's admiration for Huang Qiying weakened a little, if Huang Qiying agreed to apprentice him, he would have to think about it.
Wu Xian also knows that her husband is too straightforward, especially in treating juniors, he is known for being strict, which may also be the reason why no one came to apprentice for three or four months.
"Qiying, don't blame Shaolong, listen to what he says. Although Su Xiaocao, this girl is the first time to see her, but this child is soon beautiful and has a sweet mouth, and she is a lovely and good girl. If something happens to her family, you should do what you can to help. ”
Ye Shaolong smiled, glanced at Huang Qiying with a little disdain, and said, "Shi Niang doesn't know, Miss Su's matter is not small, and it involves the thirteen princes of the capital. And Su Lao was also killed by the subordinates of the Thirteenth Prince, I was still a step late at that time, but I also corrected the two murderers on the spot, and now this matter has been handed over to the prefect to handle, as for helping...... I think it's better to forget it. ”
Huang Qiying heard that Ye Shaolong didn't pay attention to Ye Shaolong's contempt for herself, but frowned and said, "Where is that little grass now, why didn't you come to tell me if something so big happened?" ”
Seeing Huang Qiying's serious face, Ye Shaolong also put away the frivolity on his face, shook his head and said, "I don't know where she went now, but on the way here just now, I met her selling the house, saying that she was going to bury her father." ”
After saying that, Ye Shaolong also took out the deed, Huang Qiying didn't even look at it, turned to Wu Xianyan and said: "I'll look for it now, Su Lao is kind to me, and now that I think about it, he should also have the intention of letting Xiaocao apprentice before." If I Huang Qiying can't even do this, I will inevitably lose my trust with Su Lao. ”
hurriedly explained, Huang Qiying didn't wait for Wu Xian to agree, and walked out of the gate of Baozhilin by herself, obviously to find Su Xiaocao.
Wu Xian looked at Huang Qiying's disappearing figure, her eyes were full of worry, and she suddenly took Ye Shaolong's hand to the side of the hall and sat down, and said, "Isn't the thirteen princes in the capital very powerful, Qiying, can he save Xiaocao?" Shaolong, Shi Niang has never begged you, if there is anything wrong with Qiying this time, you can help as much as you can. ”
The arm is still turned inward, although Wu Xian is very willing to help Su Xiaocao through the predicament, but she is also worried that something will happen to her father-in-law. Ye Shaolong, as the only son of a general, is able to speak in this provincial city, no more than them and ordinary people, once they offend people, especially some nobles, they will be destroyed.
The rivers and lakes among the people are already dangerous, and in this era, there is a lack of law, and a small common man has nowhere to redress his grievances, let alone confront those nobles.
It is reasonable for Wu Xian to have this worry at this moment, and Ye Shaolong, who has been in the market all day long, knows the way to survive in troubled times. The Qing Dynasty itself is in danger at such a moment, not only the common people have to abide by the rules, but those who are local officials are also easy.
If you don't do a good job on that aspect, you will fall from heaven to hell if you are not careful.
Ye Shaolong smiled, gave Wu Xian a reassuring look, and said, "Don't worry, Shaolong will definitely not let 'Master Huang' have an accident." Of course, you also have to persuade him, don't be too impulsive, just bring Xiaocao back, and don't think about avenging Su Lao. ”
"Naturally, Shi Niang will remember it. But why didn't you call the master just now? What is Master Huang called? With Ye Shaolong's words, Huang Xian was also a lot more relieved.
But Ye Shaolong's change in his father-in-law's name made him suspicious, and he thought that Ye Shaolong was still angry with his father-in-law.
