Volume 1 Chapter 60 Apprenticeship
After eating, the villagers packed up their things and everyone went home.
Before midnight the next day, Li and Lin went out to make the tofu before noon, and then asked the villagers to go to the town to sell it.
Only after cleaning up in the afternoon can the two go home to rest, Xu Wen and Xu Yunqing and Zhao Jin also got up early to go back to Fucheng, Xu Wen and Xu Yunqing both asked for leave to come back to see the opening of the workshop.
"Girl, little girl, how can you not wait for me, the workshop is open, you have all eaten tofu, but you don't wait for me, the old man is very angry."
Xu Yunjin was getting food in the kitchen, she planted the land too late last night, and there was no one at home when she first got up.
"Hmph, what do you say, you threw me on the mountain last time and ran away, what if I was eaten by a wolf, and said that I would come back in half a month, it's been almost a month."
Xu Yunjin crossed his waist and walked in front of Old Man Zhuang, stretched out his hand and pulled Old Man Zhuang's beard.
The last time he threw her into the mountains and ran, as if a hungry wolf was chasing him behind him, she walked home and her clothes were half wet.
But fortunately, she happened to save Guan Dongyue and the others, but she would not forgive Old Man Zhuang so easily.
"Ouch, stinky girl, let go, tear off your master's beard, see if I don't whip you."
Old man Zhuang is also very weak-hearted, he stole Old Man Hua's medicine last time, and he chased him all the way.
In order to give the medicine to Xu Yunjin's sister and brother as soon as possible, he took people to the mountains and ran away, which is really not good to think about now.
Hurry up and beg Xu Yunjin for mercy, this girl is quite big, but this is like him is not like his senior brother, and people who can't eat and drink well are still like a wood.
"Hmph, forgive you for the time being, for the sake of me being your apprentice soon, next time I do this, I will burn your beard and not give you anything to eat."
After Xu Yunjin finished threatening Old Man Zhuang, he turned his head and saw Yuan Xuan and Xu Yunzhao following Old Man Zhuang.
Eh, how could he be here, looking at Yuan Xuan looking at her with a smile, Xu Yunjin suddenly felt a little shy, after all, she was a lady.
"Why are you here, didn't you say you'd come back another day?"
"I heard from the master that he met two good seedlings in Jiujiang and wanted to take them as apprentices, so let me come with him today, I felt very familiar on the way I rode a horse in the morning, and I decided to come down at your doorstep."
Yuan Xuan was also surprised, along the way, he looked more and more like the road to Shuiluo Village yesterday, and asked the master without saying anything, but he didn't expect that they would be fated and immediately become senior brothers and sisters.
"How did you two know each other?"
Old man Zhuang was eating tofu with a bowl, and when he saw the white and tender things in the bowl, he knew that this was the tofu Xu Yunjin said.
Looking at the two people who were talking happily, he felt that it was over, and there seemed to be a cool breeze behind him.
"Oh...... It turns out that you are my disloyal and unrighteous senior brother who ran away alone regardless of the master when disaster came. ”
Xu Yunjin stretched out his voice to see the constantly changing look on Old Man Zhuang's face, and suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, don't you still talk bad about others in the future?"
Yuan Xuan felt as if he knew something, and the master had ruined his reputation in front of outsiders.
"This ...... Isn't this a joke, your senior brother is the best apprentice in the world, respecting the teacher, not like you will pull my beard. ”
Old man Zhuang was a little afraid to speak loudly, and the feeling of saying bad things about others and being known by the parties was too empty-hearted, why didn't he make up individual reasons at that time.
"Grandpa Zhuang, is it true that Sister said that you want to take us as apprentices, then can I also pull your beard in the future?"
Xu Yunzhao asked Old Man Zhuang with an innocent face, hmph, he knew that his sister thought about Old Man Zhuang throwing him on the mountain every day, and he wanted to avenge his sister.
……
Old man Zhuang: Let's expel the three of them from the division together, out of sight and out of mind.
At ten o'clock at noon, a few people who worked in the workshop went home, and when they heard that the old man Zhuang was back, they packed up their things and planned to go home to cook.
When I got home and saw the food on the table, I knew that Xu Yunjin had already prepared it, after all, in addition to the master, I also had to entertain the senior brother.
"Brother Zhuang, where have you been recently, but I heard that the brocade girl said that you would come back in half a month to collect it, but I haven't seen you, we tasted the tofu first, and we didn't wait for you, hey, isn't this the little boy who came to announce the decree yesterday?"
As soon as Old Man Xu entered the living room, he caught up with Old Man Zhuang, and before he finished speaking, he saw Yuan Xuan standing aside.
"This is my eldest apprentice, come with me today to meet his junior sister and junior brother, by the way, what kind of decree do you say?"
Old man Zhuang didn't know what Xu Yunjin did, and no one had talked to him about Xu Yunjin's rescue at the beginning, so he didn't know that Xu Yunjin knew how to suture.
"The younger sister dedicated the insecticide to the imperial court, and said that she would teach the master's skills to the doctors of the world, so her uncle made her the county lord."
Yuan Xuan didn't mind that the Xu family knew his identity, anyway, what should be said and what shouldn't be said Zhao Jin had already told the Xu family yesterday, and there was no need to hide it.
"What is stitching, sewing clothes, little girl will do this?"
"Suturing is a kind of surgery to deal with trauma, and my sister saved several people with long wounds and bleeding profusely on the way."
After Yuan Xuan finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Yunjin who was standing on the side, Senior Sister is really a strange woman, I heard that those people's wounds are quite scary.
If the average woman saw it, she would be frightened, and the younger sister even used a needle to sew up the skin and flesh.
"What, Jin Yatou's medical skills are so powerful, your uncle only made her a county lord, and asked her to teach students, how much money do you give?"
Old man Zhuang was angry, hum, the emperor who slammed the door, squeezed his apprentices, and he was still reluctant to squeeze it.
However, the old man Hua is also in Jiujiang, and when he hears about the apprentice, he is afraid that he will definitely come to see him, so he has to run quickly.
"Our family doesn't care about any rewards, as long as we can heal people in the future, it will be considered a blessing.
Okay, okay, let's sit down and eat, the food will be cold for a while, little boy, please take a seat. ”
Old man Xu, they heard about Yuan Xuan's help in dragging the team yesterday, and they were thinking about thanking him another day, but they didn't think that today's opportunity would come, and they would still be the senior brothers of his grandchildren in the future, and they would be a family from now on.
"In the future, the county lord, Yun Zhao and I will be the same family, we are a family, the old man will treat me as a junior, and the juniors will sit next to the junior brother."
Old Man Xu looked at Yuan Xuan, who was elegant in conversation and had a degree of advance and retreat, and felt that it was good anywhere, without the arrogance of the son of a family, and he was kind to their family, not bad, he was a good boy.
After the meal, Old Man Xu discussed apprenticeship with Old Man Zhuang, a teacher in this era, that is a father-like existence.
Therefore, apprenticeship is a very rigorous matter, and they are going to call Xu Wen and his son to come home after school, and then return to Fucheng after worshipping the teacher.
After receiving the news, the father and son came back in the evening, taking the Zhao family's carriage, which had already been arranged in the main hall, and two futons were placed in front.
"In the future, after practicing martial arts with the teacher, you must not use force to oppress the weak and do things that endanger the reputation of the teacher, you need to remember that hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and supporting justice are the ancestral teachings of our teacher.
Old man Zhuang changed his old child's appearance, and said solemnly to Xu Yunjin and Xu Yunzhao who were kneeling in front of him.
"Yes, master, the apprentice remembered."
Xu Yunjin and Xu Yunzhao solemnly promised after kowtowing to Old Man Zhuang.
"Get up, this is the inner strength of this sect, your sister and brother go back and take a look, and think about it yourself for two days, and I will teach you how much you have realized."
After worshipping the teacher, Xu Wen and his son returned to Fucheng, and Old Man Zhuang and Yuan Xuan stayed at Xu's house.
It was getting late, and in the open space at the entrance of the Xu family's courtyard, the people in the village were very nervously waiting for the return of the few people who went out to sell tofu today.
"Big brother, did you say that these children sold tofu?"
Xu Danian asked Mr. Xu a little nervously, tofu making a living is not only related to whether the Xu family can make money, but more importantly, whether the people in the village can make money by working in the workshop.
"Don't worry, those children are smart, our tofu is full of color and flavor, and it is a novelty, it must be sold."
Old man Xu was very confident in his own tofu, and answered Xu Danian's words without hesitation.
