On this day, Bai Rong was cleaning up the house, Granny Pan was in a good state today, her face was ruddy, it may be that her body was finally getting better after drinking medicine day and night.

Granny Pan wore a coarse linen dress, although there were no patches, but it looked really shabby, but she didn't like the pair Bai Rong bought, but she didn't want Bai Rong to spend money for her.

So she pretended to like coarse linen, but it wasn't pretending, she did like coarse linen, it was easier than what she wore at that time.

"Bai Rong, the weather is good these days, let's go to the back mountain to find some firewood." Granny Pan had already found the sickle in the kitchen, looked at the little firewood left, and said loudly.

Bai Rong here was thinking about what she had learned, she felt that it was not enough to make money like this, the money came down too slowly, and the hand that packed up the clothes paused and sighed.

At this time, she heard Granny Pan calling her to go to the back mountain to find firewood, so she said, "Come on, I'll pack up the things here first." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside, and someone said loudly: "But there are still people?" ”

Granny Pan cleaned up the kitchen, crackled and cleaned up the remaining firewood, and then sat on the small stool in the kitchen to rest for a while.

I didn't hear anyone shouting outside.

Bai Rong heard some subtle voices, hurriedly came out of the boudoir, and tied up her scattered hair lazily with a hairband, and the scattered hair leaked her busyness.

As soon as she looked up, she saw a woodcutter with firewood on his back waving to her.

"This is Gu Ziyuan's home?"

"yes, I wonder what's the matter with you?" Bai Rong opened the door, but Chai Fu did not enter.

"There is a scholar in the city named Shi Luo, who has asked me to come and spread the word that his father has returned." The woodcutter tossed a stack of rattan firewood on his back and said.

"I don't know when you said it?" Bai Rong asked.

Chai Fu took a breath and thought for a while, and said, "About half an hour ago, I just sold out of firewood. ”

Bai Rong thanked him, saying that it was very important at this time, so he gave Chai Fu eight copper plates, and Chai Fu said that this was a trivial matter, and he didn't take the money, so he wanted to leave.

"Wait, I'm going to buy your firewood, it just so happens that there is no firewood at home these days." Bai Rong said with a smile, and then gave the money to Chaifu, who put down the firewood and left happily.

Gu Ziyuan was reciting in the room, and the endorsement was dark at the beginning, but the more he memorized it, the more transparent it became.

Bai Rong suppressed his excitement, and then sent the firewood into the kitchen, and saw Granny Pan sitting on the bench dozing.

After sending Granny Pan back to the house, Bai Rong went to Gu Ziyuan's room, only to hear the sound of books.

"Ziyuan, Shi Luo's father has returned, let's go to Shi Luo's house now."

Gu Ziyuan put down the book, opened the door and said, "Okay, let's go at this time." ”

When he raised his eyes, he saw Bai Rong's somewhat messy long hair, and reminded in a cold voice: "Look at your long hair is still scattered, how can you go out with this?" ”

Bai Rong's face turned red, and he turned his head and ran to his room, leaving Gu Ziyuan to chuckle in place.

The two of them were walking on the road, and the scenery was pleasant in the early morning, and there were already many farmers working in the river fields passing by.

The two of them also brought the supplements they bought last time, which were all prepared for Shi Luo's mother.

At this time, an ox cart carrying things passed by, and Bai Rong gave the old man riding the ox cart five copper plates and asked the old man to take them to the city.

There are not many people on the street in the morning, and most of them are lively restaurants for eating.

Gu Ziyuan found Shi Luo's house with a familiar car, the door was half-covered, and the door was not locked.

"Shi Gongzi." Gu Ziyuan knocked on the door and then said aloud outside.

Shi Luo heard it inside, and replied loudly, "This door is for you." ”

Bai Rong and Gu Ziyuan went in with confidence.

As soon as I entered the door, the house was still dilapidated, the bitter smell of potions floated in the air, and I didn't know what was gurgling in the kitchen.

"You are here, I have lost my welcome, and I have been offended." With the medicine in his hand, Shi Luo carefully led them to his mother's house.

At this time, Shiloh's father was also there.

Shi Luo praised without hesitation: "Father, this is the white girl, this is Gu Gongzi." They are all good brothers who draw their swords to help each other when the road is uneven. ”

"Gu Gongzi, Bai Girl, this is my father, Shi Nai and others."

After the introduction, Shi Nai and the others did not speak.

He had actually heard Shi Luo say that this boy wanted to recognize him as a master, and not all people could become his apprentices, after all, he would not accept the gentlemen.

"I've heard of your name for a long time, but when I see it today, it's really as I imagined, full of economy but calm as usual." Gu Ziyuan said with a smile.

Gu Ziyuan was dressed in a cyan robe today, with a simple purse, and there was a coldness between his eyebrows, but in an instant, his face was soft, as if he had seen it wrong.

No, he can't be mistaken.

In fact, when he saw Gu Ziyuan, he was still a little hesitant.

After all, the world is full of gossip, and his reputation is no longer praised, but a little bad.

Shi Nai and the others pondered for a moment and said, "Which academy were you a student of?" ”

"Xiaosheng went to school in a college near the Pan family, and what he learned was far inferior to the academy in the famous Fucheng, and I came here this time to want you to take me as an apprentice, Mr. Shi." Gu Ziyuan's face was sincere, and he said straight to the point.

Shi Nai and the others were shocked, thinking that it was the first time that this half-old child could say such words without delay.

For the first time, he had the urge to take in an apprentice.

After chatting with Gu Ziyuan again, Shi Nai and the others felt more and more that Gu Ziyuan was a talented young man, and he had to admit that this young man's talent was much higher than that of his son Shi Luo.

"Good, good."

"Father, you see that Ziyuan is so smart, why don't you accept him." Shi Luo's timely words strengthened his father's decision to take Gu Ziyuan.

"Very good, your conversation is not ordinary, if you didn't say that you are just a teenager from a small country, I would have thought that you were the son of a big family." Shi Nai and others said.

"What's the difference between a village and a big family? As long as you go all out to where you want to go, it will definitely pay off. Gu Ziyuan straightened his waist and said.

Shi Nai and the others nodded again and again, said hello three times, and said: "I also like you as an apprentice, three days later is the time for the exam, you come to the academy in three days to take the exam, I will take care of other things." ”

Bai Rong was sincerely happy for Gu Ziyuan.

"But you must pass the grades, as long as you pass, I will definitely want you to enter the academy."

"Yes, then it's troublesome for the teacher." Gu Ziyuan said respectfully.

The two put down the tonic and then left the Shi family.

"It's good, it's great, let's go buy something, we need it for school..."Bai Rong said.
