This is true for taking in young apprentices, and it is also true for other things.

Mingwu held the jade pendant, knowing that it was a good thing; The master asked this for her good, so he said, "Master, why don't I return the jade pendant to you?" ”

"The elders can't give away." The old man stared at her seriously, and as long as she went back, he would immediately turn his face.

Grabbed the jade pendant and shook his head hurriedly, "If you don't pay it back, my master gave it to me, why should I pay it back, I will listen to my master." ”

"That's right." Only then did the old man have a smile on his face, "You can take the things given by the master with peace of mind; The girl's family can't have no money in her hand, and the girl's family should be pampered. ”

Xu Shoufu shook his head helplessly.

Ning Fang smiled slightly, "The pampered little cabbage is not easy to be arched by pigs." ”

Ming's Wife: ......

"Hahaha." Luo Mingsheng laughed loudly, "What the senior brother said is that in order to prevent the little cabbage from being arched by pigs; Yu Nian, Zixing, you have to be optimistic about the little junior sister. ”

"Yes, Master." Shao Yunian and Cheng Zixing responded with a smile, and their eyes turned to Ming's wife; But I saw that Ming's face was red and her heart was not beating, as if she didn't understand their ridicule.

The qualitative is so good, Dean Fan, Ning Fang, and Luo Mingsheng all nodded secretly.

Ming Yu sent the box in her hand to the small table next to her husband, and the spirit fruit in the box was replaced with a jade pendant given by Xu Shoufu.

"This is to honor the master."

"What is it?" The old man smiled kindly, reached out and picked up the box and opened it, and a jade pendant of good quality was introduced into the eyelids; Brushing his beard lightly, the smile on his face became a little deeper, "It's a good piece of jade, and Ming Wu has a heart." ”

The faces of the two apprentices of Luo Mingsheng's family changed slightly.

She did not notice them, so she did not see them; On the contrary, Ji Jin and Cui Changhe had a panoramic view, and the two glanced at each other and smiled meaninglessly. When they first apprenticed, the ancestor also gave them something, not a jade pendant, just an inkstone. After receiving the gift of the ancestor, the two did not return the gift.

Luo Mingsheng saw it and went to see Xu Shoufu; But seeing that his old god was there, as if he had known it for a long time, the two of them relaxed when they thought about it. It must have been him who told Xiao Mingwen to give a return gift, and Ji Jin and Cui Changhe both had a return gift.

In such a comparison, the apprentices they accepted were not good, and none of them returned the gift.

"This child was bent on receiving a gift from her master, and you gave her a lot of clothes and jewelry; This kid can't help but go, thinking about how to send you a heart, this piece of jade pendant is in Shangqingguan to invite back, it is a blessing of peace, and it can keep you safe. Xu Shoufu explained.

In this way, the old man immediately hung the jade pendant on his waist, relieved and happy, and praised again and again, "Good boy." ”

Whether it's true or not, it's good to have this heart.

The old man has lived a long time and understands that this kind of jade is not something that Ming Yu can afford now; Most of it was given by her master, even so, Ming's heart is incomparable to others.

"Master must wear it well."

"Hmm." Ming Wu pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, and retreated to the senior brothers, so that she had the heart to pay attention to others; Only after this look did I find that the faces of the four senior brothers under the fourth uncle were not very good, and they pulled Ji Jin's clothes inexplicably, and mouthed at the two Nunu.

The two of the master's uncle's family, one is leisurely and leisurely, and the other is sitting upright; Seeing Ming Wu looking over, he smiled at her.

Ming Wu smiled back and quickly withdrew her gaze.

Ji Jin chuckled and said in a low voice: "Our master's disciples, and the disciples of the master's uncle, all gave their ancestors a gift after apprenticing to the master, whether it is valuable or not, it is better to give it; None of the senior uncles and the fourth uncle's family sent them. ”

"Oh, that's it!" Ming Wu looked at the four people with different eyes.

It's one thing to not have enough money in your hands, it's another thing to have the heart to prepare; So, don't think that I'm poor, I have no money and can accept other people's things at will without returning gifts.

"Leave them alone, everyone knows this." He doubted that the ancestor didn't give the jade plate at the beginning, or he saw through what kind of people the two people of the fourth uncle's family were; The two masters of the uncle's family didn't send it at the beginning.

The family of the ancestors is rich, and this thing is not bad; It's the heart that looks at it.

Over the years, the two of them have made a difference, right? One is in Guozijian and the other is in the academy, and there is a lot of oil and water; I didn't see them make up for the gifts, or send some New Year's gifts.

"Don't get too close to them in the future, these two are fine, you are a heartless little girl, you can't win people." Ji Jin sneered in his heart, this was not what he took the initiative to say; It was the little junior sister who asked him here, and it was also the little junior sister who observed carefully.

Ming's wife nodded as if she didn't understand, "Then what if I let my brothers go to Beijing to study too?" The master said that one of them was in Guozijian and the other was in Mingshan Academy. ”

"Your brothers are coming to Kyoto?"

"That's the plan."

Ji Jin thought for a while, squeezed his eyebrows and said: "In the suburbs of Kyoto, there are not only Mingshan Academy, but also Xingzhi Academy and Splendid Academy; Senior Brother Yan's family has relatives in Xingzhi Academy, if you really want your brothers to come over to study, Senior Brother will take you to place him. ”

The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Give you a back door.

Ming Yu was amused, "I'll discuss it with my family first, thank you, senior brother." ”

"Thank you, there are only three of us under the master, unlike other uncles and uncles who have many disciples; We have to unite, when facing outsiders, we have to unite with a few senior brothers from uncles and uncles, and when facing them, we have to unite with the three of us. ”

"Senior brother, it's a gang in your mouth."

Ji Jin smiled, "It's good to think about it in the capital, but it won't work to be a lonely minister; Learn a little. ”

Ming's eyes moved slightly, and she nodded and didn't speak again; Then I listened to the small talk between the master and the uncles, some of them talked about the affairs of the DPRK and China, and some talked about the affairs of their respective positions. Ming Wu listened to it briefly, and roughly knew that Qu Sanqi, the senior brother, was very good in the Hanlin Academy; With a wide network of people and open food, the key is to be able to bend and stretch.

After lunch, the group said goodbye.

Walking out of the Weiyuan Mansion, there were nine carriages parked outside the door, and there was a long queue.

"Senior brother, fourth junior brother, farewell."

"The third junior brother walks slowly."

After Ji Jin and the three of them saluted the two elders, they followed Xu Shoufu to the direction of the carriage, and Ji Jin said, "Master, I'll send the little junior sister home, right?" ”

Xu Shoufu looked at Ji Jin, and then at Ming's wife.

Ming Yu nodded, "Master, I'll talk to Senior Brother about Ben." ”

"Well, home safely." The latter sentence was said to Ji Jin.

Ji Jin was busy, and the three of them sent Xu Shoufu to the carriage, and then Cui Changhe also followed Ji Jin and Ming Wu into the Ji family's carriage.

The carriage went away, Ning Fang also called the apprentice and left, and Luo Mingsheng and the two disciples said goodbye and left.
