Chapter 19: Apprenticeship
"Who?"
When Fang Yunxiao asked out loud, the figure in black flickered, and he didn't know where he was hiding.
Fang Yunxiao opened the door and looked at Lin Wan'er, and couldn't help frowning, the rumor spread like this, Lin Wan'er still dared to come to his house?
"What's the matter?" Fang Yunxiao stood at the door, and had no intention of letting Lin Wan'er in.
Lin Wan'er didn't want to go in either, she took a step back, let the three children stand in front, and said, "Master, I came today to apprentice for the three children. ”
"It's a teacher's apprenticeship." Lin Wan'er handed the six salutes to Fang Yunxiao.
"No."
Fang Yunxiao refused, this woman is too troublesome, and if she accepts her child as a student, the trouble will only be more.
I didn't expect Fang Yunxiao to refuse so simply, Lin Wan'er was a little stunned.
Before he could speak, he heard Zhao Muping ask: "Master, you didn't want to accept me as a student before, because I didn't have the money to buy a bundle, but now that I have bought a bundle, why are you still unwilling to accept me as a student?" ”
Pingping secretly looked for Fang Yunxiao to apprentice before?
Lin Wan'er looked at Zhao Muping and felt distressed.
Looking at the child who was waiting for his answer, Fang Yunxiao frowned, not knowing how to answer.
Did he want to tell him that he didn't want to accept it because he was troublesome with his mother?
In fact, Lin Wan'er knew the reason for Fang Yunxiao's refusal, and sighed in her heart, she touched Zhao Muping's head and said, "Pingping, don't embarrass the master, it's my mother's problem, is it okay for my mother to send you to school in the town?" ”
Zhao Muping was already precocious, and when he heard his mother's words, he also figured out the reason.
He pursed his lips and bowed to Fang Yunxiao, "I'm sorry Master, our family has caused you trouble." But it's not my mother's fault! ”
After speaking, Zhao Muping took the hands of his two younger sisters and said to Lin Wan'er: "Mother, let's go back." ”
"Okay." Lin Wan'er sighed lightly.
The two girls were a little confused, but they also sensibly followed their brother and mother back.
When Lin Wan'er knocked on Fang Yunxiao's door with her children before, it attracted a lot of onlookers, and there was a lot of discussion at this time.
"Why won't this master accept it? The kid of the Zhao family looked very smart. ”
"Then I definitely don't want to have anything to do with his mother!" A woman smacked her lips, "I think that, it's that Widow Lin likes the master, and sends all the boys and girls to the master, so she is next to the master and hooks up with the master!" ”
"What nonsense?! Are you Lin Wan'er herself? Or is it a roundworm in her stomach?! When Liu Xing'er heard this, she was unhappy, "What's the matter, the girl can't go to school?" Miss Renjiao is literate and readable! ”
The woman pouted, "You also said that it was Miss Jiao, we who are so poor that we can't afford to eat, don't do this!" Count the ten miles and eight towns yourself, which family is willing to spend money to send girls to school? ”
"You!"
......
Fang Yunxiao, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, listened to these discussions, and suddenly remembered that Lin Wan'er was talking about the apprenticeship ceremony of the three children before.
"Wait!"
Fang Yunxiao suddenly stopped Lin Wan'er, "I will accept these three children." ”
It has been three days since Fang Yunxiao suddenly changed his mind and accepted three children as students.
In the past three days, the rumors about Lin Wan'er and Fang Yunxiao having a leg have become more and more intense, but the two people in the center of the rumors are like no one else, what should they do.
After sending off the three children, Fang Yunxiao sat back on the recliner and continued to read, and the man in black came out of nowhere to add tea to Fang Yunxiao.
"Master, why did you change your mind again?" The man in black didn't understand, "Now the rumors in the village are getting more and more excessive, and even the words that the three children are yours have come out......"
Fang Yunxiao flipped a page of the book and said lightly: "If Lin Wan'er really has that thought, it is enough to send Zhao Muping here." ”
He saw that Lin Wan'er really loved the three children and really wanted to send the three children to study, so he changed his mind and accepted it.
After living in such a place for more than 20 years, these gossips did not hurt him at all.
But he himself, who has been in this place for a long time, has been completely dissipated......
Shaking his head with a smile, Fang Yunxiao asked about something else: "How is Kyoto?" My mother, are you okay? ”
The man in black replied, "It's business as usual in Kyoto. Madame is fine, but she just sent a message saying that she misses her master. ”
After a pause, the man in black couldn't help but ask, "Master, you've been here for three years, don't you really want to go back?" ”
"It's also a lot of suspicion to go back." Fang Yunxiao said lightly: "He wants me to be like this, and I will be like this." It's good to ensure the safety of my mother. "If he goes back, I'm afraid my mother's life won't be easy.
The man in black stopped talking and silently added tea to Fang Yunxiao.
Zhao family, Meng Dalian's eyes widened, and asked Liu Wang's family, "Where did that cheap hoof really send the two girls to the master?!" ”
Liu Wang nodded and smacked his lips, "That's not it!" That day, your daughter-in-law carried a lot of things in her hand to apprentice, and said yes," Liu Wang recalled, "what kind of bundle ceremony!" Three pieces of jerky! You can eat it for months! What other lotus seeds and red dates are all good things! ”
"Cheap hooves!" The more Meng Dalian listened, the more her face sank, "If you don't send good things to your family, you can send them to wild men!" ”
"Ouch hey! You can't say that, Master! Liu Wang glanced at her, "The master is a cultural person, but he can't look down on her!" ”
"The cultural people take my daughter-in-law's things?" Meng Dalian's face collapsed, "I think it's a wild man!" Little white face! I said that he didn't go to the field, nor did he go to the town to work, what do he eat on weekdays, it turned out to be a woman's soft rice! ”
"I can't talk to you." Liu Wang pouted, "My family is coming back from work, I have to go back to cooking." ”
After saying that, she left-she didn't want to stay to see Meng Dalian's face.
Zhao Mingtang came back from fooling around in the town, and shouted as he walked into the house, "Mother, I'm hungry, is the family meal ready?" ”
"You know how to eat all day long!" Meng Dalian's face was calm, "You don't know anything about such a big thing in the village!" ”
"What's the matter?" Zhao Mingtang was puzzled, looking at his mother's ugly face, he was shocked, "Is it because our family didn't get the seeds in the village?" ”
If there are any good seeds in the village, they will be distributed and planted together, so as not to assimilate the bad ones and assimilate the good ones.
But there are not many seeds, and not every family can get them, and there are always those who are late to go. Last time, because Lin Wan'er was late, she didn't get it, and her mother was angry!
"It's almost winter, send seeds for you to eat?" Meng Dalian gave him a blank look.
It's not this, what's that?
Zhao Mingtang was even more puzzled.
Seeing that her son didn't know anything, Meng Dalian felt angry in her heart, "Lin Wan'er's cheap hooves sent the three children to Fang Yunxiao!" I also gave away good things like dried meat and red dates! ”
"You said that she is the daughter-in-law of my Zhao family, and she doesn't know how to honor her mother-in-law if she has good things, and send them to wild men! Does this sound like words! ”
The more Meng Dalian spoke, the more angry she became, she stood up and walked out, "Let's go, come with me to the ancestral house to find that cheap hoof!" ”
