Today is the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, Lin Chengzhi took Lin Yue to eat early, and then rode to Dongfeng County. Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the streets of the county town are very deserted, and people are staying at home to prepare, steaming bean buns, pasting Spring Festival couplets, mixing dumpling fillings...

Lin Chengzhi took Lin Yue to the door of Ruyi Pavilion, bent down to tidy up Lin Yue's clothes, and then nodded with satisfaction, and then stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"The door is not closed, come in," a voice came out. Lin Chengzhi pushed open the door and took Lin Yue in. The old man is still sitting at the counter, but he is not wearing glasses today, and he has been closing his eyes to recuperate.

"Uncle, we're here." Lin Chengzhi didn't know what to bring for apprenticeship, so on the way here, he went to the mall to buy a bottle of good wine and a bag of fruit. He put his things on the counter and said to the old man.

The old man slowly opened his eyes, looked at the two people in front of him, and nodded.

"Lin Yue, go, bring me a cup of tea." The old man pointed to the teacup on the tea table next to him and said to Lin Yue.

When Lin Yue heard this, he walked over. Because the table was a little high, Lin Yue had a little trouble lifting the teapot, so she climbed onto the bench, stepped on the stool, poured a cup of tea for the old man in a proper manner, and then carefully brought it over. Lin Yue was afraid of breaking the tea bowl, she felt that this tea set was also an antique, so she couldn't be sloppy.

"Get down on your knees!" The old man didn't take the teacup, but asked Lin Yue to kneel.

Lin Yue understood at this time, this should be the apprenticeship ceremony. Lin Yue obediently knelt at the old man's feet, holding the teacup high, and then listened to the old man say, "I, Tang Chuan, today I would like to accept Lin Yue, the daughter of the Lin family, as a closed disciple, I hope you keep in mind the teacher's training, do not forget your original intention, and do not do anything that insults the teacher, otherwise you will be expelled from the teacher", after speaking, the old man took Lin Yue's tea, took a sip, put it aside, and stretched out his hand to help Lin Yue up.

After Lin Yue heard Tang Chuan finish saying this series of apprentices, her body trembled slightly, and she wanted to laugh a little in her heart, but she couldn't help it, what about apprentices, you have to be serious.

"After the fifteenth day of the first month, you can come to Ruyi Pavilion every Saturday and learn skills from me. The old man instructed Lin Yue.

"Got it, master," Lin Yue replied happily.

Lin Chengzhi, who was standing on the side to watch the ceremony, sighed in his heart after watching the whole process, this apprenticeship ceremony is really simple, and the rhetoric is exactly the same as in a martial arts movie.

If Lin Yue knew his father's thoughts, he would definitely joke, my father still knows the plot of apprenticeship in martial arts novels, he is really knowledgeable.

Tang Chuan is not from an orthodox sect, so he doesn't pay so much attention to the apprenticeship ceremony, it's just a formality, and he can go as he likes. When he was young, he was a soldier and had adventures, and then he pondered and cultivated by himself, and then he went south and north to practice. After so many years, I have accumulated a lot of cultivation experience, but I am also getting old. Although he looks much younger and more powerful than his peers because of his cultivation, he is always old when he is old, so he came to Dongfeng County, a remote small county, and opened an antique shop to pass the time, not asking about the world. Perhaps, some people will ask, why didn't Tang Chuan go to the mountains to be a real hermit. Tang Chuan will say with great contempt, pure nonsense, Lao Tzu is neither a monk nor a Taoist, and there is no need to live an isolated life. Da is hidden in the city, and he is hiding in this small county, which is also very good.

Tang Chuan asked Lin Chengzhi's father and daughter to sit down, and then took out a piece of paper, on which a lot of words were densely written, and gave it to Lin Yue, and later thought that Lin Yue was so young that he should not be literate, so he gave it to Lin Chengzhi.

"This is a breakdown of all the antiques in the Ruyi Pavilion, I don't have any children under my knees, and I don't have any relatives, since I accepted Yue'er as a closed disciple, then these things should be hers. She's too young to run it, so you take care of it for him. Tang Chuan tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly.

"Master, you are such a local tyrant, you have given me all such valuable antiques" Lin Yue looked at Tang Chuan with a dogged face.

"Dad, you have to look carefully, come home and teach me to understand one by one, it's all mine." Lin Yue turned around again and instructed Lin Chengzhi, who was already stunned beside him.

"Uncle Tang, these are too precious, they all say that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, Yue'er hasn't done anything, she has so many treasures, I'm a father, I'm a little uneasy" Lin Chengzhi felt that the piece of paper in his hand was particularly hot.

"Take it, just because she is my Tang Chuan's apprentice, she has this qualification," Tang Chuan said in a deep voice.

Lin Chengzhi saw that Tang Chuan's attitude was resolute, so it was difficult to say anything, so he immediately folded the paper and put it in the pocket of his coat.

"Chinese New Year's Eve, I'll go to your house to eat dumplings, remember to take care of my meal when the time comes" Tang Chuan coughed embarrassedly after speaking, and then went into the inner room with his hands behind his back.

"You guys go back, just write the address and put it on the tea table." The sound of Tang Chuan seeing off the guest came from the back room.

"Ah, well, we're waiting for you at home." Lin Chengzhi remembered that after Tang Chuan said that he had no relatives and no children just now, he felt sympathy and hurriedly responded.

Looking at the back of Tang Chuan's escape, Lin Yue remembered his uncle who was far away in Shandong in his previous life. My uncle also joined the army at a young age, never got married in his life, had no children and no daughters, and went to a nursing home when he was old. Thanks to Lin Chengzhi, a nephew, who often goes to the nursing home to see him, otherwise he would have to die alone.

After Lin Chengzhi took Lin Yue out of Ruyi Pavilion, he went home.

As soon as the father and daughter left, a Santana stopped at the door of Ruyi Pavilion, and a father and son got out of the car, if Lin Yue was still here, he would be able to recognize this little boy, he was Ouyang Qi.

Ouyang Qi's father, Ouyang Zhi, always wanted his son to worship Tang Chuan as a teacher, but unfortunately Tang Chuan repeatedly refused, saying that his son had no master-apprentice relationship with him, and he couldn't force others. Ouyang Zhi didn't believe this, he just thought that Tang Chuan was unwilling to accept it, he felt that it was man-made, and he would impress Tang Chuan one day. So this is the third time that I have brought my son to visit Tangchuan.

Ouyang father and son knocked on the door and entered the Ruyi Pavilion. Tang Chuan was wiping the vases on the shelf, and when he saw Ouyang Zhi coming, he shook his head helplessly, nodded and motioned for them to sit casually.

"Master Tang, I came this time because of the child's apprenticeship. Let's see if you can think about it again, my son is very smart and learns things quickly, so you can take him in. Even if it's a registered disciple. Ouyang Zhi said.

"Didn't I say last time I came back, me and your son... Hey? What's going on? Tang Chuan was about to reject Ouyang Zhi with the same words as before, but when he glanced at Ouyang Qi, he was stunned, immediately stepped forward, and looked at Ouyang Qi carefully, he saw that Ouyang Qi's face had changed.

Tang Chuan slowly turned around and sat down at the tea table, his fingers lit up the table, pondered for a while, and then said to Ouyang Zhi, "I have already accepted the closed disciple just now, if I accept your son now, I can't explain to my disciple."

Ouyang Zhi heard it, this is a play. Listening to Tang Chuan's words, it shows that he can still accept his son as an apprentice, but because he has just accepted an apprentice as a closed disciple. As for why he couldn't collect it before, he didn't care about it, and now he can collect it.

"Master Tang, you just accept my son, don't you have to let him be your closed disciple, besides, you have two apprentices, isn't it better, and you can take care of each other" Ouyang Zhi said with a smile.

"Well, yes, that's okay, let's worship today" Tang Chuan immediately clapped.

Since then, Lin Yue has had one more junior brother.

Back home, Lin Chengzhi told Liu Li that Yue'er's master was coming to the house for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve. After Liu Li heard this, she hurriedly rearranged the things used for the New Year to see what else needed to be prepared, and she couldn't neglect her daughter's master.

"Since Yue'er's master is coming, then you go buy a bottle of good bar," Liu Li said to Lin Chengzhi, who had already taken off his coat.

"I see that Uncle Tang likes to drink tea, otherwise, I'll buy him some good tea" Lin Chengzhi remembered Tang Chuan's expression of enjoyment when he drank tea in Ruyi Pavilion, and felt that it was more reliable and sincere to buy tea.

At this time, Lin Yue was secretly taking out the paper given by Tang Chuan from the pocket of Lin Chengzhi's coat, and after she got her hands on it, she turned around and opened the paper.

The more she looked, her eyes widened. This old man must have been a character when he was young, otherwise where would he get so many valuable antiques back? I have to hug this thigh, and when I grow up in the future, it depends on him whether I can break into the rivers and lakes. Lin Yue began to fantasize again.
