After Xi Ji and his family learned the news, they actively began to prepare. For Xi Zimo's master, both families have heard of it, after all, Xi Zimo goes back to Mo Lao's Mo Zhuxuan almost every day after school.

Soon, He Yanfang and Ling Manlan prepared for this apprenticeship. Moreover, according to Mo Lao's instructions, he just invited his family to be a witness.

Because of Mo Lao's occupation, the apprenticeship ceremony was set in Yunyun, which is a very famous teahouse here, with a box on the second floor, which is a place where some literati and scholars like to come. Sure enough, Mo Lao still liked it very much when he saw that the place was here.

"It's all your own people, and you don't need any false courtesy, Zimo, come over to serve tea!" was originally to prepare everything simply, and Ji Lingbai himself acted as the host.

Xi Zimo also stepped forward very well-behaved and gave Mo Lao a cup of tea, "Master!"

Mo Lao took the tea, took a sip, and put it on the coffee table on the side. He took a jasper wrench from his hand, "This will be given to you later, you are my closed disciple." ”

Although Mo Lao had promised Ji Lingbai before, if he accepted Xi Zimo, Xi Zimo would be a closed disciple. But the adults of the Ji family and the Xi family didn't know about this and were very surprised. Even Ling Manlan, who had always been gentle, frowned, "If I had known that it was a closed disciple, I would definitely not have made it so simple." ”

As if knowing what Ling Manlan was thinking, Ji Lingbai whispered next to her, "In extraordinary times, it's okay to do this first." ”

Ling Manlan nodded in understanding and didn't say anything more. It was Xi Junhan who might be relatively big, "That's good, our Zimo will definitely treat you as our own elders." ”

Xi Zimo nodded again and again beside him, indicating that what his father said was what he thought.

After the simple ceremony, the two families and Mo Lao sat down at a table to prepare for dinner. This is almost a Chinese tradition.

Maybe it's because they've already apprenticed, Mo Lao and Xi Zimo have relaxed a lot. At the dinner table, Mo Lao asked something that he was very puzzled about as soon as he entered the door.

"Zimo, what is the relationship between your mother and the Ling family in Kyoto?"

"Haven't you heard of the Ling family in Kyoto?" Xi Zimo looked at Mo Lao with some confusion, and at the same time looked back at his mother.

Ling Manlan's face changed slightly, "It's okay, Mo Lao, you must have admitted your mistake." ”

Mo Lao frowned and did not continue to speak. Although he is old, he is not so bad that he can't even see people clearly. Ling Manlan's appearance is seven points similar to the current head of the Ling family, if it is said that it has no relationship, it is absolutely impossible. It's just that he hasn't heard that the Ling family still has such a figure in this place, and it seems that he still has to find an opportunity to inquire.

"That's probably what I read wrong. Mo Lao changed the topic, "Zimo's inspiration for painting should be you, right? I have also seen his early paintings, and you are also very spiritual." ”

Ling Manlan nodded implicitly, "Mo Lao praised it." ”

The previous topic was brought up like this, as if it hadn't happened. However, Ji Lingbai, who had been paying attention to a few people, still saw something. When asked about the relationship between Ling Manlan and the Ling family in Kyoto, the faces of the Xi family and his wife changed slightly, and it was not a little, it was obvious.

Therefore, Ji Lingbai had to suspect that Ling Manlan and the Ling family in Kyoto must have something to do with each other. Therefore, the Kyoto Ling family and Xi Zimo must also be related, thinking of this, Ji Lingbai felt that there was a chance to check out this Kyoto Ling family.

After worshipping the teacher, he said that the change was not very big. It's just that Xi Zimo has become more diligent in going to Mo Zhuxuan, and Mo Lao has also begun to explain a higher level of painting skills to Xi Zimo in a planned way, and at the same time, he also took Xi Zimo to the museum to watch and sketch in the wild.

Although Ji Lingbai has some understanding of this industry because of Xi Zimo, she can't accept letting her stay in one place all day long like them, facing one thing.

Therefore, Ji Lingbai still continued his previous work, but just took time out to eat with Xi Zimo every day and go home together.

Time passed day by day, Xi Zimo successfully got the admission letter of Ji Lingbai's school, and Ji Lingbai had already been booked by the school's high school.

Because the military training time in high school is longer than that of junior high school, Ji Lingbai's class time is almost a week earlier than Xi Zimo.

On the day of registration, Ji Lingbai was ready to go alone, but unexpectedly, Xi Zimo got up early and waited on the first floor of Ji's house.

"Sister. Xi Zimo was still afraid that Ji Lingbai would talk about himself.

Ji Lingbai didn't know why Xi Zimo was so afraid of himself, "What's the matter, it's all here, I can still drive you back." ”

Hearing Ji Lingbai's words, Xi Zimo calmed down a lot. "Then sister, you slow down, I'll wait for you. ”

During this time, Xi Zimo has really grown a lot. I don't know if it's because of the stimulation of that incident, Xi Zimo is now more attentive to Ji Lingbai.

Ji Lingbai quickly took care of it, and after eating the breakfast carefully prepared by He Yanfang with Xi Zimo, he walked in the direction of the school.

Obviously, the elementary school opposite today has not yet opened, but at the school gate, Xi Zimo and Ji Lingbai still met Zhao Liang.

"I knew you were going to school today. Zhao Liang still looked very familiar and walked in front of the two.

Xi Zimo pushed Zhao Liang's arm on his body in disgust, "I remember that you haven't started school yet, why are you coming to school?"

Zhao Liang looked at Xi Zimo with a helpless expression, "You don't even say a word to me if you skip a grade, senior!" The last two words were said viciously. However, considering that Ji Lingbai was by his side, Zhao Liang's voice was not loud at all.

"I just want to go to school with my sister, envy me?"

Zhao Liang rolled his eyes, "Milk doll." ”

turned around and looked at Ji Lingbai with a smirk, "Sister Lingbai, I heard that your military training this year is very tiring, so I invited the famous Third Legion here." ”

There are still a lot of things happening this summer, so much so that Ji Lingbai didn't pay attention to this aspect at all. It wasn't until now that Zhao Liang brought it up that he suddenly realized. The Third Legion can be said to be one of the more famous local legions here, and I don't know how the school invited this Buddha this year.

Seeing that Ji Lingbai was quite interested in this, Zhao Liang continued to talk about his "intelligence". "I heard that the principal of your Wenchuan Middle School has changed this year, and the so-called new officials have taken office with three fires, so this military training is made by him. It is said that he has a friendship with the leaders of the Third Legion......" Speaking of this, Zhao Liang also looked left and right, as if he was talking about some important secret.

Ji Lingbai knew that there was not much credibility in this statement, not to mention that the military and the government had always been separated, and he didn't dare to be so upright if he had a relationship in private, so that everyone knew about it. Secondly, even if there is really anything, it is not something that a child like Zhao Liang can know.

However, if the Third Army participated in this military training, Ji Lingbai could already feel the tragedy of his military training this time.

"Sister Ling Bai, so, I suggest that you let your family give you a walk, approve a fake note, and don't participate in military training. ”

Xi Zimo didn't feel anything, but when he heard Zhao Liang's remarks, he was still a little afraid, and he also looked at Ji Lingbai with a worried face.

Ji Lingbai couldn't laugh or cry, "It's not so exaggerated, and the instructor can't train you to death." ”

Zhao Liang also wanted to persuade a few words, but was interrupted by a group of people behind him. "I think what this classmate said is very reasonable. ”

The couple who walked towards the three of them held their heads high and walked neatly, coupled with the words spoken by the person at the head of the line, it was not difficult to guess that they were probably the people sent by the Third Army for military training. Ji Lingbai, who was not panicked at all, was suddenly a little embarrassed, she never thought of being remembered by the instructor in this way.

Zhao Liang's kid slipped away since he saw this group of people, and Ji Lingbai and Xi Zimo were left to leave. Ji Lingbai secretly scolded Zhao Liang in his heart. On his face, he still greeted the instructor politely.

"You seem to be the instructors who will be here for military training tomorrow, and it looks like there are excellent talents. ”

The men still didn't speak, and they didn't even change their expressions. Just when Ji Lingbai really didn't know what to say, the person who led him still let go of Xi Zimo and Ji Lingbai and let the others go in first.

Looking at the couple who had walked away, Ji Lingbai and Xi Zimo really relaxed a lot. However, the person in front of him should not be ignored.

"What that little kid said just now, what did you do?" Ji Lingbai didn't expect the other party to ask him this question, and he was completely unprepared.

After thinking about it, he shook his head, "I don't think what he said is all right, but there should still be some of it." In fact, this is Ji Lingbai's true opinion.

Just when Ji Lingbai thought that the other party would chase after him, the other party suddenly did not continue to ask, but asked Ji Lingbai's class. Ji Lingbai said that he was about to sign up and didn't know which class he was in. The person turned to ask her name again, Ji Lingbai hesitated for a while, but still told the other party his name.

There are only so many new students in a school, and if the other party wants to know, they can know everything, so it is better to be self-conscious.

"Okay, I remember. Hurry up and sign up. Seeing that the other party finally let him go, Ji Lingbai hurriedly took Xi Zimo's hand and entered the school.

Maybe it was because he grew up and knew something, and when he was far away from that person, Xi Zimo let go of Ji Lingbai's hand holding him. Ji Lingbai also felt it, but he felt that Zimo had grown up in the end, and he also let go.

The registration process is still very simple, especially Ji Lingbai does not live in school. The two quickly signed up, received the clothes to be worn during military training, and went home.
