Chapter 715: Master and Apprentice Have Different Hearts
Back in the restaurant, Dugu Tianfeng and Piao Wu were first arranged in the upstairs private room.
"Master, there is a conspiracy!" he lowered his voice as he closed the door and disappeared.
"Conspiracy?" Dugu Tianfeng thought that his little abacus had been discovered by his apprentice, and after repeating it, he hurriedly pretended to be calm and emphasized, "What kind of conspiracy is there? Stinky boy, don't be suspicious! As a teacher, you can be 100% sure that your victory is definitely expected!"
"Master, don't you think that as our competitor, Zheng Rentu always favors us in the process of judging, isn't it wrong?"
After hearing this, Dugu Tianfeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "It turns out that my old man has not been recognized by this stinky boy! Alas, I was worried in vain." Although the baby apprentice in front of him did not directly suspect himself, for the sake of a happy life in the future, Dugu Tianfeng hurriedly comforted, "Perhaps, Zheng Rentu has long been impressed by your superb barbecue skills, so he will help you so hardheartedly." I don't think there's going to be a problem here, right?"
"There is a problem, there must be a problem in this! I feel that the person called 'Zheng Rentu' has long had the bad intention of 'apprenticeship'!" said without a trace with a solemn face.
"Isn't it just 'apprenticeship'? What kind of bad attempt is this? Didn't people say it, all you need is some cooking ideas on a whim. Dugu Tianfeng said while complaining in his heart, "Stinky boy, there are people who worship you as a teacher, what's wrong? At the very least, my old man won't need to look at your face in the future!"
"I don't think it's that simple!" said with a calm face, "This Zheng Rentu looks very unusual. Master, it's better for us to take advantage of the unpreparedness...... How's it going?"
"How can this work! Let's slip away, won't my old man's wishful thinking not work?" Dugu Tianfeng immediately became anxious when he heard this, but fortunately, his reason was still there, and he didn't tell his true thoughts, "This seems to be a little inappropriate, right?" Dugu Tianfeng asked in embarrassment.
"What's wrong?" asked Piao Wuxian unconvinced.
After delaying for a while, Dugu Tianfeng finally thought of a more reasonable explanation: "Baby apprentice, people just want to apprentice." It's not really a 'conspiracy'. Besides, according to the agreement, you can teach him nothing. The point is that the teacher agreed in front of everyone. You can't force your teacher to be a villain who doesn't talk about trust, right? Besides, with the hard work of our master and apprentice, is it possible that we are afraid of a fat cook? If we find out that he has any bad intentions in the future, if the evidence of the crime is conclusive, it will not be too late for us to leave him behind!
"Master, how do I think you are always deliberately helping Zheng Rentu speak?" asked Piao Wuxian with a look of suspicion.
"No, no!" Dugu Tianfeng hurriedly denied it in a panic when he heard this, "How is this possible? Think about it, I am your master, is it necessary to help an outsider speak?"
"Really, Master, how do I feel that your motives are not pure, what conspiracy is hidden in them?"
"Really, really!" At this moment, Dugu Tianfeng argued more urgently, "Conspiracy? How is it possible? I am your master, how can I have any conspiracy against you?"
Just when someone was about to reveal his stuff, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
"Who?" Dugu Tianfeng really couldn't ask for such an interruption, so he immediately shouted and asked.
"Master, it's me!" Zheng Rentu hurriedly replied.
"Oh, it turned out to be you!" Dugu Tianfeng couldn't wait to open the door as he spoke.
"I'm sorry, Master!" Zheng Rentu said apologetically with a depressed face.
"What's wrong? Can't you go with us? It's okay, you're busy. It's not too late to come back to us when you're free!"
Listening to the words of Drifting Without a Trace, Dugu Tianfeng's expression suddenly became nervous.
"Oh, no, no, Master, what are you talking about? Since I have already made up my mind to learn art from you, how can I not go with you?" Zheng Rentu hurriedly explained.
"This girl, I'm so scared to death by you!" Dugu Tianfeng scolded in his heart, but he was also greatly relieved.
"Then why do you apologize?" asked Piao, puzzled.
"Alas, it's all to blame for the snobbery of the big shopkeeper Feng. Seeing that I refused to stay here and help him make money, he would never give me credit again!" Zheng Ren said hatefully.
"What about the food money we owe and the wages you advanced in advance? I don't think the shopkeeper Feng is a good person. If we don't find a way to pay it off, then he won't let us out of here!" Drift reminded with a pretended worry.
"Alas, who says it's not?" Zheng Rentu also sighed with a distressed face.
"We have urgent business to do...... "Piao Wuxian put on a very embarrassed look, "or I can stay and help you." Alas...... I think it's better to stay here and continue to be your chef. When we're done, we'll come back to you, and guess that by then, the debt will be almost over......"
"Stinky boy, what are you talking about?" Before he finished speaking, Dugu Tianfeng interrupted and asked very shamelessly, "Since we have recognized the identity of our apprentices and apprentices, then we can count them as our own people." How can you be so unrighteous and leave him alone to suffer here?, and we both pat our butts and run away regardless of it?" At the same time, he snorted coldly in his heart, "Stinky boy, do you want to spoil my old man's good deeds?"
"Alas, Master, it's not that I don't pay attention to righteousness, but we are really penniless!" Piao Wuxian sighed helplessly with a bitter face.
"Master, you don't need to be embarrassed. Don't worry, I've been living here for more than ten years! I still have some connections, even if I make up a lot of money or even sell iron, I will find a way to pay back this account as soon as possible. It's just that I hope Master can stay here for two more days......"
Piao Wuxian interjected mercilessly: "But, we are really in a hurry......"
It's just that Dugu Tianfeng interrupted and asked even more unsympatheticly: "Stop, stinky boy! It's not for the sake of the teacher! Now, you are the master of other people! The apprentice is in trouble, why don't you help as a master?"
"It's not that I don't want to help, but I really can't help!" replied Piaowu, embarrassed, and this time it was by no means pretending.
"Who said that?" did you ever think, but Dugu Tianfeng asked confidently with a stiff neck.
