When the people in the hall heard this, they all stood up, and saw a person walking out of the back of the hall, wearing a deep robe, wearing a crown of Zhangfu, smiling, and clear eyes. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

The deep-clothed Zhang Fu crown is the most orthodox and formal dress of Confucianism, and seeing the mountain chief wearing it like this, Mrs. Zhao was overjoyed and hurriedly saluted.

Ning Siyuan nodded slightly, and his gaze as quiet as water as the moon fell on Xiao Nuan.

People pay attention to their eyes, Xiao Nuan first saw this uncle who was not as outstanding as Chen Zumo's facial features but had an outstanding temperament, so he liked it, and hurriedly curtsied, "Chen Xiaonuan has seen the mountain chief." ”

Ning Siyuan smiled, "Get up and sit down." ”

The attendant hurriedly brought a chair and placed it at the end of the right side.

The mountain chief gave a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl a seat, which was a very high courtesy, Zhao Shuyan and the others were surprised, but Xiao Nuan didn't know this, walked over generously, and sat down.

The Qin family was happy for his daughter, Chen Zumo frowned again, and apologized to Ning Siyuan, "The little girl doesn't know the rules, and the mountain chief is not strange." ”

Xiao Nuan blinked her eyes and looked up at Ning Siyuan again. Ning Siyuan smiled, "The old man asked her to sit, what's the wonder?" Chen Zhuangyuan was too modest. ”

The second time he was said to be humble, Chen Zumo smiled gently.

Hearing that Ning Siyuan called Chen Zumo to be "Chen Zhuangyuan" again, Zhao Shuyan and Qi Zhiyi turned their hearts slightly. It is said that they are close to the relationship between master and apprentice, Ning Siyuan should not be so polite, and it is a bit deliberate to do this twice.

This is to deliberately distance himself from Chen Zumo, Zhao Shuyan curled the corners of his mouth.

Chen Zumo also thought of this, and felt a little unhappy in his heart. thought that after recommending his ambitions, Ning Siyuan made an exception to accept him as an apprentice, because he wanted to ease the relationship with himself, so he dragged his injury over to watch the ceremony round his face. I don't want Ning Siyuan to make his face in front of so many people!

Ning Siyuan didn't care what Chen Zumo thought, and asked Xiao Nuan again, "'I haven't seen each other for three days' The old man knows, but I don't know, don't say it lightly." If you don't know, don't pass it lightly' Where does this sentence come from? ”

Xiao Nuan stood up and replied respectfully, "My father." ”

"Poof!" Zhan Yi was able to squirt out a sip of tea, hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve, and looked up to see Chen Zumo.

Chen Zumo said with a majestic face, "What nonsense! ”

Xiao Nuan looked sincerely frightened, "It's true that I heard my father read it before, but my father forgot?" ”

All......

"Chen Zhuangyuan is well-read, and it is reasonable to forget occasionally." After Chen Siyuan finished speaking, without waiting for Chen Zumo to speak, he smiled and said, "The auspicious time has arrived, Tu'er come here." ”

Zhan Hongtu had already been told the etiquette of apprenticeship countless times at home, and when he heard his teacher call him, he hurriedly stood up and walked in front of Ning Siyuan, bowing his hand, "Master." ”

"Let's get started."

Then the prostrations began, first to venerate the saints.

Ning Siyuan burned incense and kowtowed in front of the statue of Confucius.

Then there is the apprenticeship.

Ning Siyuan sat down, showed his ambition and knelt down to bow three times.

Then, Xiao Nuan saw the servants of the Zhan family rushing in and sent a large number of apprenticeship gifts to Ning Siyuan.

A bundle of celery, a basket of lotus seeds, a basket of red beans, a basket of red dates, a basket of longan, and then ten strips of dried meat?!

Is this, the apprenticeship?

So plain?

Qin Shi also involuntarily turned his head to look at Xiao Nuan, the mother and daughter felt incredible, Xiao Nuan raised his index finger between his lips and motioned for his mother to watch quietly.

Qin nodded, and hurriedly turned his head to stare at the red dates in front of Ning Shanchang, thinking in his heart that this date was really big and red, and he didn't know if it was sweet or not......

"Heaven and earth are the foundation of life; The ancestors are the foundation of the kind; The master is also the root of the rule. There is no evil life in heaven and earth, no ancestors are evil, there is no evil rule by the monarch and teacher, and if the three are separated, there will be no peace. Therefore, the rites, the heavens, the earth, respect the ancestors and the king, the three books of the rites are also ....." Ning Siyuan began to speak, very lofty.

Xiao Nuan's head hurt inexplicably when she heard this, and she peeked at her mother's eyes to diverge, and she estimated that she was thinking about her little pigs and chickens and beans all over the yard.

Xiao Nuan held back her laughter, and listened to Ning Siyuan's words about respecting teachers and studying diligently, I don't know why, her father Chen Zumo's face also became ugly.

After Ning Siyuan finished his training, Zhan Hongtu kowtowed in a regular manner, "Remember the teacher's teachings. ”

Xiao Nuan was thinking that Zhan Hongtu would be able to understand a few percent, so he heard Ning Siyuan say again, "Get up." ”

Zhan Hongtu stood up, and then retreated to the teacher's side, and this apprenticeship was completed.

The ancients attached great importance to apprenticeship, "the parents of those who gave birth to me, and the master who taught me", apprenticeship is like reincarnation. Since then, Zhan Hongtu has a master, and someone will take care of it. Mrs. Zhao and Xiao Wu wept with joy, secretly pinching the handkerchief to wipe away their tears, while Wu looked unhappy.

Because Zhan Hongtu was still young, Chief Ning Shan did not leave him to study in the county, but asked him to go home first, and then enter the county school at the age of seven to officially enlighten and study with him.

Ning Siyuan personally sent everyone off, and when he said goodbye to the Qin family, he was deeply moved.

Mrs. Qin was flattered and hurriedly avoided it, "Hurry up, the little woman deserves your gift." ”

Ning Siyuan stood up, "Madame is self-taught, and she also taught such an excellent daughter, she deserves it." ”

Not only Chen Zumo, but also the students who watched outside the door were also surprised.

When Chen Zumo was helped out, Ning Siyuan only nodded and did not say much.

Relatives and sparse opinions.

Seeing that Chen Zumo's face was not good-looking, Zhan Yi was able to hurriedly come over and ask what Fang Cai Zhao Shuyan said, "I heard that the champion was injured in order to save the old general Wu?" ”

"Not bad. If it weren't for the old general Wu sending someone to deliver medicine to Chen, it would be difficult for Chen to get up and come today. This sentence was finally spoken, and Chen Zumo suddenly felt refreshed.

Ning Siyuan, who had already turned around and went back, glanced back at Chen Zumo, who was smiling, and turned around and left calmly.

Chen Zumo, who was surrounded by students, had a stiff face.

After agreeing to Zhan Hongtu to play in the village, Qin's mother and daughter were ready to go home, accompanied by Zhao Shuyan.

"Brother Zhao, I see that there seems to be some mismatch between Ning Shanchang and my father? Didn't the two of them have a good relationship before? Xiao Nuan asked.

Zhao Shuyan said in a low voice, "Ling Zun was indeed praised by the mountain chief when he was studying in the county school, and he was also kept by the mountain chief several times, and when he went to the capital for scientific research, the mountain chief also gave him a coil. But after Ling Zun won the champion, he ...... Ningshan is long self-denying and courteous, and the Tao is different. ”

Xiao Nuan understood that Chen Zumo did not want to do his best for the country and the people after he won the top prize in high school, but instead lost his life and sought wealth and wealth, because he was ashamed of a righteous gentleman like Ning Siyuan and disdained to be with him.

"The chief of Ningshan is very good, and he is a blessing for the students of the county school." Xiao Nuan said sincerely.

Zhao Shuyan smiled with a smile, "The mountain chief thinks you are not bad, if it weren't for you, if you weren't a woman, he would have taken you under the door." ”

"Then I'm not Tu'er's junior sister? Don't! "Don't say anything else, as long as he cares, Xiao Nuan can't stand it.
