Chapter 282: Accepting Disciples
Fu Tingyun stepped forward and saluted.
Yang Tong turned his face away and went to return the salute to Fu Tingyun, but An Daochang squinted his eyes and looked Fu Tingyun up and down with a smile, and then his eyes fell on the children behind her.
Fu Tingyun hurriedly instructed the children to greet An Daochang and Yang Tong.
An Dao smiled and said nothing, but Yang Tong took out the gold bills that had obviously been prepared a long time ago to reward the children. In the end, he hugged Brother Xu from the nurse's hand and smiled at Zhao Ling: "This is your second boy!" It's really good-looking. ”
Brother Xu'er's big black eyes looked at An Dao.
Fu Tingyun couldn't help muttering in his heart.
This An Dao chief looks to be in his sixties, why was he coaxed to Kyoto by Yang Tong in a few words? Teaching the teacher by word and deed, is this An Dao chief good at it?
Seeing Brother Xu staring at him, An Dao Chang smiled and said to Brother Xu, "What are you looking at?" As he spoke, he walked in front of Brother Xu.
Brother Xu reached out and grabbed An Daochang's beard.
Fu Tingyun was greatly embarrassed, and while going to Brother Xu quickly, he shouted in a low voice: "Don't be rude to your elders!" It's just that Brother Xu'er's hands and feet have always been faster than her, and when she stopped her, Brother Xu'er's hand had already reached in front of An Daochang.
An Daochang was obviously very surprised, but with a slight tilt of his head, Brother Xu'er's hand fell short.
Fu Tingyun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ignoring etiquette, he hurriedly took Brother Xu'er from Yang Tong's hand, and kept apologizing to An Daochang: "The child is not sensible, don't take it to heart." ”
An Daochang's eyes smiled even more.
He asked and gently touched Brother Xu'er's head, but pointed at Brother Xi and said, "That's your eldest son Brother Xi, right?" ”
"yes!" Fu Tingyun said with a smile, knowing that they were all here for Brother Xu'er, but he didn't want them to despise Brother Xi'er, "Brother Xu is so active." Brother Xi is so quiet and very humble in everything he does. ”
An Daochang smiled when he heard this: "Has he started?" ”
Fu Tingyun was stunned.
Brother Xi is only five years old this year. The average child doesn't do it that early.
"Nope." She smiled and shook her head, "The child is still early, but he can learn two words with me in his spare time." ”
Listening to her words, An Daochang was a little surprised.
Standing beside him all the time, Zhao Ling hurriedly said, "Not yet!" Then Wen Sheng explained to Fu Tingyun: "The Taoist chief is asking Brother Xi who he has followed to practice martial arts. ”
Fu Tingyun then understood.
"Bang bang bang" came from the window with the sound of smoke popping.
The fireworks brightened the night sky.
An Daochang smiled and said, "Zhao Ling, I promised you to be martial arts masters for your two sons." After speaking, he didn't wait for Zhao Ling to answer, turned around and walked out. Walk on the side. also shouted Yang Tong: "Didn't you say that there is a sheep scorpion hot pot restaurant opened by Huihui people in the alley of Chang'an Avenue?" Let's go eat sheep and scorpion hot pot. ”
Yang Tong replied continuously, and glanced at Zhao Ling with envy, and hurriedly followed An Dao out of the elegant room.
When Youyou and Brother Xi saw the guests leaving, they scrambled to climb onto the official hat chair. Brother Xu, who was held in Fu Tingyun's arms, twisted his body and shouted in the direction of his sister and brother, "Look at the fire, look at the fire."
Fu Tingyun handed over Brother Xu to Tong's mother, and asked Zhao Ling in a low voice: "What's going on?" ”
Zhao Ling said with a smile: "An Daochang has not asked about the world for many years, and if he wants to ask his old man to take Brother Xu as an apprentice, the best way is to take Brother Xu to Jiugong Mountain to show his old man." But firstly, I didn't have this time, and secondly, Brother Xu was still young, and I was afraid that the road would be bumpy, so I had to ask Brother Yang Shige for help, saying that he would come to Kyoto to play. I took the opportunity to see Brother Xu'er's side......" he said, smiling, "I was still thinking in my heart last night about how to let An Daochang also teach Brother Xi to do both, but I didn't expect An Daochang to not only take a fancy to Brother Xu, but also to Brother Xi." "I was very happy.
Fu Tingyun was a little uneasy, and said, "I look at An Daochang's appearance. I seem to know what your idea is early on......"
"Of course." Zhao Ling said with a smile: "An Daochang has walked more bridges than we have walked. How can we hide this little bit of caution from his old man. The reason why Brother Yang was able to invite An Daochang was also because An Daochang was old, but he did not have a satisfactory successor. Hearing Brother Yang praise Brother Xu, his old man would come anyway. As for agreeing to be a martial arts master for Brother Xi and Brother Xu," he muttered, "It's not so easy to officially enter the door of Daoist An, Daoist An wants to see if Brother Xi and Brother Xu can meet his old man's requirements, so he only talks about being a martial arts master, and doesn't mention the matter of accepting apprentices." ”
Seeing that An Daochang acted in such an orderly manner, Fu Tingyun was relieved. She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go and accompany An Daochang?" My kids and I are here to watch the fireworks, and you'll pick us up later. ”
Zhao Ling thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go to the hot pot restaurant and pay the bill." ”
Fu Tingyun nodded with a smile, helped him straighten his clothes, and said softly: "Go early and return early, we are waiting for you here." ”
Zhao Ling smiled and bowed, gently squeezed Fu Tingyun's hand, and hurriedly went to chase after An Dao Chang and them.
Fu Tingyun accompanied a few children to watch the fireworks, but he was thinking about where An Daochang would live. In two months at most, the Xixi invited to Yoyou should also arrive. If Xixi is sitting in the small study next to the hall in the south room, then it is best for An Daochang to arrange it in the back cover room. In front of the back cover house is a backyard with a vacant lot. In this way, you have to open a back door in the back room.
Without further ado. Go back and let Zheng San ask a mason master to take a look!
Having made up her mind, she also began to admire the smoke that rose and fell in the night sky.
After a while, Zhao Ling folded back.
"I accompanied a few glasses of wine, and An Daochang drove me back." He smiled and said, "An Daochang, I may think that it is not easy for me to come back!" ”
came back so soon, Fu Tingyun was naturally very happy. She asked about Guizhou: "What happened to the Miao chaos over there?" Will you stay in Guizhou for a long time? ”
"The main reason is that those county officials are too sloppy with the Miao people." Speaking of this, Zhao Ling couldn't help but be solemn: "Although I asked the emperor for some decrees to appease the Miao people, it will take time and process to make this decree truly implemented." He said. The tone paused slightly, "You didn't see it." Those Miao people are really miserable...... Some people don't even know what salt tastes like for the rest of their lives; Fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls have no serious clothes to wear; There is also a child, who is about the same age as our family Yoyo, because he accidentally broke the bird cage during the market, he was almost killed as a thief......"
Fu Tingyun gradually heard some taste.
She couldn't help but step forward and put her arms around his waist and put her face on his chest: "Then, I'll give you ten years, is it enough?" ”
Zhao Ling was stunned.
Fu Tingyun raised his head, looked at his eyes, which were darker than usual because of his hidden anger, and said softly: "You want to rely on the reputation of the emperor's favored ministers to implement those decrees, right?" I'll give you ten years. You do a good job in Guizhou. I raise my children well at home. But ten years later, you have to come back to me, stay with me and my children, and not go anywhere...... Good no good? At this, her eyes moistened.
Those long lonely nights. Just thinking about it makes people feel panicked.
But she couldn't keep him around.
The geese have left a voice, and the people have left a name.
No matter who it is, when you are young, you have a little bit of obsession and yearning.
Since she likes this person, she hopes that he will live happily, be full of spirits forever, and have no regrets in his life.
"Ah Yun!" Zhao Ling's eye circles were also a little red.
He hugged Fu Tingyun tightly.
"Five years, when you give me five years," he said with some excitement. "No matter what happens at that time, I will return to you and the child, and we will never be separated again."
"Hmm!" Fu Tingyun nodded with tears in her eyes.
Outside the window, the fireworks are in full bloom.

Zhao Ling has been out for more than half a year, and he can't stay in Kyoto anymore.
After placing An Daochang, he selected a person surnamed Yan from among the several Mr. Xixi recommended by the third brother-in-law to sit in the museum at home. He returned to Guizhou with peace of mind.
Yan Juren is over fifty years old, a native of Haining, Zhejiang, since he was twenty-one years old, he has repeatedly tried and failed, some of the family's properties have also been sold out, and his son died of illness and no money for treatment. At first, I heard that it was a seven-year-old girl who was a little unhappy, but later I learned that there were two little sons in that family, one was five years old and the other was three years old. And he agreed. When I arrived at Zhao's house, I saw that the son-in-law was smart, cheerful and lively, and he would be able to teach him and get through it for a while, and he liked it very much, and the servants up and down also respected him very much, so he was even more satisfied.
Fu Tingyun was also very satisfied.
Yan Juren's knowledge is very good, and he is also transparent, An Daochang lives in the back yard, Brother Xi and Brother Xu follow him to practice martial arts, although the hands and feet tremble when standing on the horse, and they can't even pinch the chopsticks, but the children can persevere, and she feels that it is more rare than anything else. In the evening, I helped the children to wrap hot towels on their arms and legs, and said words of encouragement to cheer the children.
After a few days, it was the queen's birthday. She and Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Ji entered the palace together to pay homage to the queen's mother.
Compared with the grandeur of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother's Thousand Autumn Festival is very simple.
The inner woman ate a bowl of longevity noodles in Kunning Palace, and the outer woman worshipped it, and each person rewarded a few longevity peaches and dispersed.
On the emperor's birthday Halloween on March 20, it is not about the foreign wife, Fu Tingyun is happy, thinking that it is almost summer again, and he will help a few children make belly pockets.

When Yu Jingxiu hurriedly walked out, he saw Fei Shi coming over with a small bamboo basket from a distance.
His steps were sluggish.
He hadn't seen Fei's since that day.
I don't know how she's doing?
Just as he was thinking about whether to ask, Fei Shi had already walked over.
She didn't seem to expect to touch Yu Jingxiu, and her expression looked a little surprised, but she quickly regained her composure and bent her knees to salute Yu Jingxiu with a smile.
Yu Jingxiu saw that the small bamboo basket was full of Ruixiang, and wanted to ask her what she was doing with so much Ruixiang, but she felt that it was meaningless for her to ask like this, so she swallowed the words when they came to her mouth.
