Chapter Twenty-Five: The Matter of Peace

He Qiang smiled wryly but said it.

"After you left, I once met a shopkeeper in the town, he asked me if you had any other recipes, I said no, and then he didn't ask much, but he invited me to drink tea, who knew that it was seen by Li Liang, who was a classmate of carpentry with the master, and then he kept walking around with me, and then I was seen by him when I secretly did carpentry behind my back."

"And Li Liang, I thought it was a good junior brother, who obviously said that he wanted to keep it secret, but he turned around and told the master about it."

"And then your master is dissatisfied with you?" Xiang Tianqi thinks this master is very strange! Isn't it good for apprentices to be motivated, why aren't they happy?

"Yes, I told you before that I have been stealing learning, and the handicraft work is taught by the apprentices to starve to death of the master, so the master will teach very slowly, and some people often can't get out of the teacher for a lifetime, and those who come out of the teacher are just learning a scratch. So the master was very angry when he knew that I was secretly studying behind my back, and he hadn't let me touch the woodwork in the past few days. And some of the small orders that I received were also made by Li Liang. ”

"And now I also understand that Li Liang's previous relationship with me was also fake, he has always been dissatisfied with my carpentry work better than him, but he didn't show it, this time he just has a handle, it would be good if he could take this opportunity to drive me away, so that the master will only have one apprentice left."

After He Qiang said this, he stopped talking, but the bitterness in his heart couldn't be stopped. Although it was his fault to steal the master, he also told the master afterwards that he would only pick up work in his own house and the surrounding villages, and would not come to the town to have contact with the master, and the previous customers would not contact him again, but the master still disagreed.

And he repeatedly said things that embarrassed him, of course he couldn't tell Xiang Tianqi and them. Unexpectedly, in the past few years with the master, he usually regarded filial piety and obedience to the master, but in the end, it was just that he thought that the previous harmony and intimacy between master and apprentice were all illusions. And Li Liang, if it weren't for this incident, he might not be able to see clearly!

Xiang Tianqi and Cui Ying have been acting as listeners, and they only spoke when He Qiang finished speaking.

"Big brother, it's okay, come back, it's at home, with us." Although Cui Ying was as brief as ever, everyone understood what she meant.

Come back, we are at home, we are always with you.

"Yes, with the eldest brother, or you can take this opportunity to come back, anyway, you are estimated to have learned about the same, even if you don't, you can slowly explore. And it's not comfortable for you to stay here, so you might as well take the opportunity to go home. ”

"Then I took a break and started from scratch, and there was nothing I couldn't get by. Moreover, since your master has treated you like this, it has nothing to do with him in the future, even if there is a conflict in business in the future, you don't have to have so many scruples, so it seems that this incident has happened. ”

Xiang Tianqi was specific, and he also took into account the future. But apparently He Qiang doesn't think so.

"Although the master treats me like this, but I can't do the same to the master, as the saying goes, 'a teacher for a day, a father for life', the master always teaches me a time."

Alas, the pedantic thoughts of the ancients! Xiang Tianqi was speechless.

"Alright then, we'll talk about that later. Now the matter is whether you want to take advantage of this matter to say goodbye to the master. Xiang Tianqi asked the key question.

Cui Ying also looked at him.

It's not impossible to be a teacher like this, and it's not impossible to be strong, it's just ......

"What's wrong, what's the problem?" Xiang Tianqi saw that something was wrong.

"It's nothing, it's just that if you leave the teacher in advance, you need to make the best thing, the master thinks that you can be out of the teacher after you can, and there is a teacher gift of 10 taels of silver, which is considered a filial piety to the master in the future." Although He Qiang was reluctant to say it, he still said it under the strong gaze of the two people opposite.

It's hard and strong to make things, it's just 10 taels of silver. Learning from the master will not pay wages, so in the past few years, He Qiang has saved a total of 2 taels of silver, or he secretly earns it by doing private work for others, because it is secret, so he can only make small pieces, so he can't earn much money. Because of this, it was only 2 taels in a few years. Therefore, he is hesitant to decide the problem of the teacher.

"It's not difficult for you to make things and big brother. As for filial piety and silver two, I gave this, don't refuse first, I paid in advance, and then you will pay me back when you earn the money, or you can do carpentry work for me, anyway, I will find someone to do carpentry in the future, since there are people I know, why take care of strangers' business. Xiang Tianqi said to He Qiang with a grin, as if she had taken a big advantage.

It's just that He Qiang and Cui Ying both know that Xiang Tianqi is just using this method to help him, and even if he is asked to do carpentry at that time, he will still pay, and he will definitely not resist the work as he said.

Xiang Tianqi said so, and it would be hypocritical for He Qiang to refuse. Moreover, even if Xiang Tianqi doesn't want his money, he is still afraid that he can't think of a way to give it to him, and in the future, her Xiang Tianqi's business will be his business, Xiang Tianqi is his own sister-in-law, whoever dares to trouble Xiang Tianqi will not be able to get along with him!

Figure this out, and Heqiang will no longer be entangled.

"Okay, brother listen to you, this will tell the master to be a teacher!"

Since it was decided, it was done early, the three of them discussed it again, got up and walked to Master Heqiang, and when they arrived at the place of work, they heard a sound in the back room, so the three of them went in directly.

Master Heqiang and his junior brother are all there.

"Master, I want to be a teacher." Without any foreshadowing, he said it bluntly.

Li Liang's face was surprised when he heard this, and then turned to ecstasy.

And the old man on the other side was expressionless.

"You've decided?" The faint voice could not hear any tone.

"Yes, I decided." And the strong voice is very firm.

"Then just put the silver here, as for the wood work, you don't need it, I can trust your craftsmanship."

He Qiang was stunned for a moment, and then nodded. directly put the silver that Xiang Tianqi gave him just now on the octagonal table.

When the old man saw the silver, he opened the drawer next to him, took out a piece of paper, and wrote the teacher's explanation, and specially noted on it that it had nothing to do with He Qiang in the future. The old man signed it first and then gave it to Heqiang.

He Qiang took the paper and read it, although he saw the special explanation, there was no expression on his face. Maybe it's not like it's in front of them, maybe it's already seen away, in short, the look is faint.

Firmly and forcefully signed the name, in duplicate, and the master-apprentice relationship was severed.

He Qiang took his share and turned around and left, without hesitation.

Go to the room where you live and pack your things. It's said that it's just a few clothes. After packing up, the three of them left.

The old man looked at He Qiang and signed without hesitation, and the moment he turned out, his heart flashed with disknowledgement, after all, he had been getting along for several years, but this point of unbearable behavior seemed so worthless, so he didn't feel it after that moment. But beyond that, it's as if something very precious has been lost and can never be recovered.

Out of the door, He Qiang turned his head and took a deep look, then turned around and strode away without nostalgia.

The master didn't really believe in my craft, he just didn't want to see me again. It's okay, this place won't have anything to do with me anymore. I'm just and strong! ’

……

It was almost noon when all this was done, and the three of them were hungry, so they planned to go eat first.

I ate the noodles that He Qiang said last time, and this time Xiang Tianqi wanted to eat something else, so he wanted to see if there were any other delicious things here.

He Qiang didn't come out to eat much, so he didn't know, so the three of them walked around and walked to a place that sold steamed buns, and saw that there were a lot of people, and with the idea of "how good the people who eat it", Xiang Tianqi took the two of them over.

There are so many people that they need to queue up, and Heqiang will definitely not need it at their girl's house, so Heqiang asked Xiang Tianqi and Cuiying to find a place to sit down, and then went to line up, and after a while, Heqiang came over with a few buns.

Xiang Tianqi took one casually, opened his mouth and bit it, it was pork and cabbage, with thin skin and big filling, and the taste was really good, the key is that this is really natural and pollution-free, no wonder there are so many people who eat it. Unlike the one she had eaten in her previous life, the thieves sold it expensively, and it was all noodles in the afternoon, and there was not much filling.

One of the two bites between Cuiying and He Qiang is a cabbage Dacong, and the other is a wild vegetable filling. Xiang Tianqi has never seen it. But judging by the way the two of them eat, it shouldn't be unpleasant.

"And big brother, isn't this bun without leeks and meat." Xiang Tianqi asked casually while chewing a bun in his mouth. Although the buns made of this pork cabbage without pollution and natural ingredients are delicious, she still likes to eat meat! Whether it's buns or dumplings, there are capers and white radish.

"Meat incense? Leek? What is Meat Fragrance? Leek? Can this be a bun? "Heqiang is strange, he knows leeks, but it's the first time I've heard that you can make buns, and it's fragrant? What's that?

"Uh, there's no meat?" Xiang Tianqi doesn't care whether the leeks are leeks or not, she only knows that there is no meat fragrance here, or no one has found this vegetable seed yet. That's a big deal! In modern times, in addition to spicy, Xiang Tianqi's favorite is meat fragrance, and he never gets tired of eating it!! There is no one here, how can you bear it!!

"It's the kind that smells weird, and it's green, and most of it is tiny branches?" Xiang Tianqi asked without giving up.

What I got was the shaking of the two of them.

Maybe there really is one here, although there are most modern dishes here, but it is impossible to have all of them, so you can only go back and find them.

Halfway through eating, He Qiang remembered that they had something to do today.

"By the way, what are you two doing today?"

"Oh, we discussed with the patriarch and the elder that we plan to do business in the town, and we will sell noodles first. Today I was going to let you find a house to rent, after all, the town is too far from the village, and it is definitely inconvenient to go back and forth. Xiang Tianqi said briefly.

It was originally planned to be so, but who knew that he would encounter something strong today. So they plan to do it again next time.

Obviously, Heqiang also thought of it with them.

"It's all my fault, or you wouldn't have to come again."

Xiang Tianqi and Cui Ying shook their heads to show that they didn't blame him. This is also something that can't be done, so you can't ignore it, so what have they become? Besides, there is no rush in this matter, and today is supposed to take a look first, and it is definitely not realistic to look for a fight immediately.

"It's okay, I didn't plan to find it in a day, I originally wanted Brother Heqiang to go back to the village and tell us after you found it. So none of your business, and we didn't point to finding the house today. But since you're here, let's go around, and maybe there's something else to gain. Xiang Tianqi was relieved and strong.

(Today, I was writing and cooking rice, but I forgot that the rice was paste, and the lid of the pot exploded!) Woowoo...... Heart-stopping! Show yourself up, comfort me, let me know how much I'm worth!! )
