Red Maple Village is not far from Chiba Town, and the oxcart has already arrived in Chiba Town while talking.

Because today is the eighth major gathering in Chiba Town, there are a lot of people on the street, and Ye Damin got down from the ox cart and led the oxen slowly.

They had to send the fruit to the fruit shop first, which luckily was not far from Hongfeng Village into the town.

The fruit delivered today was personally selected by Father Ye, and there were almost no flaws.

The owner of the fruit shop was very satisfied after inspecting the goods, and the two sides weighed the accounts, and soon the transaction was completed, and the goods and silver were very smooth.

Seeing the silver taels that the boss handed over to Father Ye, Lin Wan only felt a little congested.

There are not many people who specialize in growing fruit trees here, but the selling price of pears and peaches is really not high.

Today, the Ye family sent more fruit than expected in advance, more than 500 catties, but the silver taels obtained were only five taels.

Looking at the hundreds of catties of fresh fruits stacked in the fruit shop, and then looking at the small ingot of silver in Daddy Ye's hand, Lin Wan really couldn't believe it, more than five hundred catties of fruit only had such a small ingot of silver.

Father Ye and Ye Damin were still happy.

It can be seen that the income in previous years is less!

Lin Wan pondered whether to think about making the leftover fruits at home into preserved fruits.

She can be sure that the fruit will be made into preserved fruits and then sold, and she can sell the fresh fruit for several times the price.

When she was in Chongfu Temple, she ate the preserved fruit that Wutong bought from the bottom of the mountain, the taste was average, but the price was not low.

But as long as she thought of her current age, Lin Wan could only sigh silently in her heart.

It is not as reliable as trying to improve the varieties of fruit trees, which is what she is good at.

She had already made some attempts before, and it also made Daddy Ye understand, and it was what she should do to continue to guide Daddy Ye in improving the fruit.

Today they are going to a private school, if the master agrees to accept Ye Qing's brothers, Father Ye plans to pay off the next half a year's bundle in a lump sum today, and Father Ye will exchange the five taels of small silver ingots with the boss for five copper coins.

The fruit shop is at the southern end of Chiba Town, and the Zhang's private school selected by Daddy Ye is in the east of Chiba Town, and it needs to pass through half of Chiba Town.

The streets of Chiba Town are not spacious, and today it is a big gathering, and it is really inconvenient to walk through the streets and alleys with an ox cart, so I first stored the ox cart at a large cart shop not far from the fruit shop.

Ye Damin carried a basket with rice and flour oil on his back, Ye Qing was holding the potted plant, and Ye Qing was carrying a basket, which contained fruits carefully selected by Father Ye.

Ye Shen and Lin Wan both wanted to go by themselves, but they were still young, and there were many people on the street, so in the end, they had to be hugged by Father Ye and Ye Damin.

Lin Wan felt a little embarrassed, but she also knew that it was not the time for overseas Chinese, so she was obediently held by Daddy Ye, and the group went straight to the private school opened by Master Zhang.

Zhang Fuzi's private school is not large, so it is located in front of the courtyard where the second Zhang family enters.

However, the location and environment here are not bad, and it is a short walk from the main street.

If it weren't for the market today, the ox cart would still come directly.

It's not too far from the bazaar, but it gives people a sense of quiet and quiet, and it's a good place to read.

When the group arrived at the private school, the master was giving a lesson, and the old servant of the doorman led them into the small porter.

There was a constant sound of reading in a low voice, and Lin Wan was a little curious about what kind of person this Master Zhang was, could it be an old man with a gray beard?

She really wanted to go inside and see if the ancient master really shook his head as he did in movies and television when teaching.

But these can only be thought about in her heart, at this moment she was held by Ye Shen, and both of them leaned on Ye Damin's body, quietly waiting for the master to get out of class.

Fortunately, the waiting time was not long, and the laughter and slapstick of the students came from the courtyard in about a quarter of an hour.

The old servant hurried out and invited the master to come over.

Lin Wan raised her eyes and saw that this Master Zhang was not the white-bearded old man she imagined, but a middle-aged man in his forties, with a very elegant temperament, and he looked like a scholar.

This is really famous, and he is also the only master in Chiba Town.

It was precisely because she knew that this master had a reputation for making a name for himself that Lin Wan would think that Master Zhang was a white-bearded old man!

As soon as they saw Master Zhang come in, Father Ye and Damin hurriedly took a few children to salute Master Zhang.

Master Zhang bowed his head to everyone very reservedly, and then politely invited everyone to sit down, and was about to ask Father Ye about their intentions, but was hooked by the potted plant that Ye Qing put at his feet.

Although this potted plant is only the most common pine tree, the form of this pine tree is pruned very charmingly, but unfortunately, the potted tree is really unbearable to witness, making the bonsai a little less elegant.

Zhang Fuzi approached Ye Qing, Ye Qing first thought that Zhang Fuzi recognized him, but later found that Zhang Fuzi's eyes were staring directly at the potted plant at his feet, and there was no such person as him in his eyes at all!

Father Ye was still a little apprehensive at first, but now he really understood the meaning of what Xie Huang said to him.

This master really has a soft spot for such bonsai!

"Wonderful! Who is this potted plant, it is so charming! This thing is ruined with such a basin, it is ruined, it is ruined! Zhang Fuzi praised and sighed, looking at his appearance, he couldn't immediately find a suitable basin to replace.

"This is ......" Ye Shen opened his mouth without thinking, but was interrupted by Father Ye: "It's just an unintentional work of the grandson in the family, and it deserves to be praised so by the master." ”

Father Ye lost no time in explaining the purpose of their trip: "I have heard the name of the master for a long time, and I came here today, I wonder if the master can accept these grandsons of the old man?" ”

Only then did Master Zhang reluctantly retract his gaze from the potted plant, his gaze slid over the Ye Qing brothers, including Lin Wan, one by one, and finally fixed his gaze on Ye Qing, opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently: "I have seen you, Xie Huang is from a village!" ”

"Yes, the kid has been instructed by the master and has benefited a lot." Ye Qing made a disciple salute to Master Zhang in a regular manner.

Ye Qing was not his own disciple, and Master Zhang would not accept his full courtesy, so he turned to the side slightly, and turned to look at Father Ye: "I heard that the old man just now meant that he planned to send several of them to study here?" ”

Father Ye hurriedly nodded: "Yes, they all want to study with the master." ”

Zhang Fuzi frowned slightly, pointed at Ye Qing, and then pointed at Ye Zhan: "Master Ben just has a few empty places here, but I can let the two of them try." As long as you can pass the exam, you can come to study tomorrow. ”

Then he pointed at Ye Shen and Lin Wan and shook his head: "These two are too young, I only accept children who are over eight years old here." ”

Ye Shen was obviously relieved when he heard Master Zhang's words.

As long as the master doesn't accept it, he can stay in the village to study with Second Uncle Xie, and Wanwan will have the opportunity to study.

But!

Will Daddy Ye give up just yet?
