Chapter 27: Apprenticeship 3

After following Master Fang into the courtyard and into the living room, I strengthened my suspicion. Master Fang must have expected that I would go and return.

The dinner on the table in the living room has not yet started, which is a dish of braised fish, fried green peppers with bacon, stir-fried water spinach with garlic, and cucumbers. With such a rich dish, how could Master Fang finish it alone? The main thing is that there are two people's dishes and chopsticks on the table.

"Master, you haven't finished your meal yet?"

"Nope! Accustomed to someone doing it, I haven't been cooking for a long time, and the cooking speed is a little slower, and now I am here. ”

"Oh! Did the master eat so much alone? Or is there a guest at home?"

"Where are the guests, people like me have always been alone, how can anyone come to me, of course, except for someone! As for the overcooking, is it too much? I can't eat it all by myself, so can't I feed it to the dogs or something?"

I touched my nose stupidly, and I felt a little happy in my heart. Don't look at Master Fang's tone of voice is very cold, but I always feel very comfortable listening to it, and I don't know where the comfort is. I only know that in addition to the chickens, ducks and geese, which are three kinds of poultry that can bark, there are really no dogs in the yard.

"Oops! Well, master, you see, I didn't eat either. I've been here for so long, and I haven't tasted your craft, so why don't I come and have a drink with you?"

What is cheeky, I am ah. Even though I'm full, I still insist on not eating, and I face the food on the table, and I open my mouth to want to eat.

"Oops! Be careful that your saliva is dripping into the dish. Forget it, sit down and have a couple of drinks with me!"

Master Fang has spoken, what am I waiting for. Unceremoniously pulled out the stool, sat on it, and was very attentive to fill Master Fang's cup with the mellow rice wine produced by the farmer. Then I also had a drink, drinking wine and eating dishes with Master Fang, which was very freehand.

Tsk, don't say it's been a long time since I've been away from home. I haven't drunk this mellow rice wine for a long time, and when I take my mouth, the smell of rice that fills my mouth, and after entering my stomach, the hot feeling comes from my throat and stomach, how kind it is.

Even though I'm not very old, in my twenties, I don't drink much. As a young man born in the countryside, others dare not say that this amount of alcohol is naturally a good skill cultivated since childhood. If a rural boy tells someone that he has never drunk home-brewed rice wine, he will definitely be laughed at.

Therefore, Master He Fang drank for more than three hours, and both of them were flushed, full of wine, shirtless, and rolled up their trousers, looking like a market hooligan. But I'm still awake and can walk steadily.

As for Master Fang? It seems that it is almost the same, not only is it swaying left and right when walking, but even when he speaks, he is a little slurred.

"Little... Child! You know... Is it? I've been for a long time... Didn't drink so... Happy. ”

"The master said that he laughed, you can drink wine at any time!"

"Yes! Solo Fun... As... Everyone is happy, drinking alone... What's... What you mean!"

Well? Hearing Master Fang's drunken words, I suddenly realized that my opportunity seemed to have come. As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot, since you want to apprentice, why not try it while Master Fang is drunk? If it happens, even if he wakes up, he is unlikely to regret it, after all, he took the initiative to ask me to drink with him.

"That's it! It's so simple, as long as you don't dislike it, Master Fang, I can accompany you every day to drink until you don't get drunk!"

"Hey, hey? You... When I'm stupid... Yes? Every day... Eat at my place... White food, I... It's better to... Raise a pig!"

There's a play! I was secretly happy in my heart, and hurriedly said, "How is it possible! As long as the master is willing to take me as an apprentice, I won't be able to eat for nothing! I can help the master with all the big and small affairs, and I will never be lazy. ”

"Oh my god! I'm really not good material for acting!"

Master Fang's sudden words made me stunned, what is the situation?

But then Master Fang told me what was going on.

"Boy, it's finally time to get your mind out! Hmph, do you think I'm so easy to get drunk? Tell you, even if I drink another three catties, I won't get drunk. ”

At this moment, where is Master Fang still getting drunk, except that his face is still red like a monkey's buttocks, not only does he not walk left and right, but he also walks quite steadily, don't you see that he is walking to the inner hall and moving out a recliner.

"Master, I..."

Where did I think that Master Fang was pretending to be drunk, and the purpose was just to want me to speak my mind. But why would it do it? I can't figure it out, but I can't take care of the situation so much at the moment, anyway, Master Fang knows that I want to apprentice, so it's better to have a regular one.

With the courage to drink, I no longer hesitated. In front of Master Fang, who was lying on the recliner, fanning his fan and humming a little song, he bent his knees and knelt in front of him.

"Master, I sincerely want to follow you to learn the secret techniques left over from the 5,000-year-old history of our country. I promise that when I succeed in my studies, I will do things for the people everywhere like you, Master, and will never do anything illegal and harmful to the people. So, I beg you, Master, to take me as an apprentice!"

I don't think I can say the long essays that moved me to tears, but I swear that every word is from the bottom of my heart. Isn't there a saying that goes, sincerity is the gold and stone. As long as the sincerity is felt by the other party, then it doesn't matter what you say.

No, Master Fang, who was lying on the chaise longue, stopped shaking the fan in his hand. His eyes were fixed on me, and he didn't say a word until I couldn't hold back and wanted to fart, and then I smiled slightly.

"Do you know why I said that to you this evening?"

"Doesn't the Master want me to get out of here?"

"Then why did you come back again?"

"Uh... Because I wanted to worship the master as a teacher, although I didn't know what the master thought, but I always felt unwilling to hear the master's answer in person, so I came back. These are secondary, and I have one of the most important reasons why I have to come back. ”

Hehe, master, master, you are not a god who can pinch and calculate after all, I have already found a good reason, just wait for you to ask me why I came back, haha.

Hearing my words, Master Fang looked at me with a happy face and asked, "What is the reason?" Tell me about it!"

I didn't hurry to take out the red envelope that had already been put in the money from my butt pocket, probably because I had been carrying it for too long, and the original brand new cardboard box now has a lot of wrinkles, which looks very unsightly. But that doesn't stop me from being sincere.

handed the red envelope to Master Fang, and said seriously: "Master, this is it." I am so grateful that you helped me get rid of evil spirits and restored me to health. No, I was in such a hurry that I forgot to give you your hard work, so I just said goodbye, I'm really sorry. Luckily, there is no shuttle bus to the city in town today, so I sent it to you overnight. ”

"That's it?" Master Fang blew his beard and glared at the red envelope in my hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "I thought it would be something else, but I didn't expect you to give me such a thing."

Well? What do you mean by this? I pondered in my heart: Could it be that Master Fei was disappointed when he saw that the red envelope was not thick at all? Or does the master have other intentions? Alas, the human heart is the most difficult thing to figure out, whatever, take one step at a time.

"Master, no matter what, this is the reward you deserve, although it is a little less, but please accept it! Otherwise, I can't get over my conscience!" I didn't know what to say, so I stuffed the red envelope into Master Fang's hand, got up and bowed, and said, "I know that the master doesn't want to accept me as an apprentice, so I don't have any thoughts." I will follow the teachings given to me by the master, and I will live a good life in the future. Goodbye, Master!"

With that, I turned and walked towards the gate. In fact, I have already guessed what Master Fang meant, that is, he doesn't want to take me as an apprentice. Didn't you see his words and deeds, and didn't promise me to apprentice? If I hadn't expressed my thoughts before, I might have had a little illusion. But now, the mind has been revealed, but Master Fang has not said it, this is not an obvious answer! To be a man, you must be self-aware, and don't break the casserole to ask to the end in everything, which can only add embarrassment.

Just after I took four or five steps, the master behind me suddenly called me "Come back" and stopped me.

"Master, is there anything else you have to do? If you think that the red envelope is less, I can't help it, you know my situation, I haven't worked for almost a month, and my salary has been sent home except for daily necessities. These 100 pieces are really all I have!"
