Chapter 68: A Trip to the Distant Door
I went to the back and talked to Aunt Liu, she heard that my master was going out tomorrow, and she was a little surprised.
"I've already done it at noon, is it too late?"
"The fat man and I will go out to buy now, bring some braised vegetables, eat some simple at noon, and we will have a good meal in the evening!" I hurriedly said.
It's eleven o'clock, and it's too late to do more.
"Okay, buy a fish and come back, I think Master Wu likes to eat it!" Aunt Liu hurriedly said.
"Good! Then we'll go and we'll be back in a moment. ”
"Go, go!"
I pulled the fat man out the back door, walked to the head and walked inside, not far from the vegetable market.
The fat man kept nagging me, just wanting to do things with me.
I didn't speak, but I agreed in my heart, and I wanted to hear him break his mouth.
From the moment I heard that my master was really going to go away, my heart was very uneasy, and I always felt upset.
Listening to his constant nagging can also distract you a little.
We bought fish, pork ribs, a few seasonal vegetables that had just been put on the market, and roast duck, beef and vegetarian roast goose at the braised vegetable shop next door, and then we went back.
Back at home, Shi Dan has already returned for lunch.
"Brother, I bought a lot of vegetables!" Shi Dan ran over to help me carry the vegetables, "I just heard my mother say that Master Wu is going out and wants to cook a lot of dishes." ”
I smiled, "Are you taking the monthly exam today?" ”
"That's right!" Shi Dan was successfully led off the topic by me, "I can do all the questions, and I have answered them all!" ”
"Okay! If you can get a perfect score, I'll take you to the playground! "The fat man is rubbing his head next to him.
Shi Dan opened his hand, "Don't touch my head, I'll be stupid!" ”
"It's okay for your brother to touch you, but I'll be stupid when I touch it?" The fat man was happy.
"Can it be compared? He's my brother! "Stone eggs pinching the waist and fat man theory.
I ignored them and took the braised vegetables into the kitchen, "Aunt Liu, buy it back!" ”
"Give it to me! You're going to call Master Wu over for dinner! ”
I went in and called my master, and Shi Dan and the fat man were bickering while helping Aunt Liu serve the plates.
After lunch, Shi Dan was driven upstairs to take a nap.
The fat man sat in the shop and watched the store, and I followed the master into the study.
I brought in the pu'er that I hadn't finished drinking before and poured it for Master.
"Sit down!" My master took a sip of tea, "This matter has been decided before, but the plan can't catch up with the changes." ”
I didn't say a word, waiting for my master to continue, feeling that he was going out this time as if it was not the same as usual.
After he finished speaking, he stared at the point of nothingness, as if he was recalling something, I didn't dare to disturb, still quietly waiting for his next words.
Suddenly, my master smiled, "Ziwu, you have been following me for ten years, and I have seen that you can be on your own recently, so I can go out with confidence." ”
I frowned slightly, and there was always an indescribable feeling in my heart.
I'm able to take charge of my own business, haven't I just recently started doing things on my own?
Didn't you say that I should exercise more and gain more experience?
How did you come to the conclusion that I could do it in such a short period of time?
Suddenly a bright light flashed in my head.
In fact, when I say a thousand things and ten thousand, I am still too young, and I feel that I have a master to rely on for everything, and I don't think so much.
Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that the change in my master started when Tang Lian came to the door.
On the day Tang Lian came to the door, my master took me out, and when I came back, he asked me to start doing things independently.
Now he says he's going on a long trip.
After making the connection, I suddenly realized that from that day on, my master had been preparing to go out, but he didn't worry about me, so he brought back Shidan mother and son to accompany me and take care of me.
Then I met the fat man, and said that I didn't have any friends, and this person could make friends.
And today's Ho Haiwei.
His various arrangements have long been traced, and I only hate myself for not discovering it sooner.
My eyes started to swell and I couldn't control my tears.
"Master!" I didn't expect my voice to choke up, "Is it dangerous for you to go out this time, so you haven't told me, just arranged everything for me?" ”
My master looked at me with satisfaction, "Knowing that you are smart, you can guess even if I don't say it." He handed me a tissue, "I won't say it, it's because I've been preparing for decades what I'm going to do when I go out this time, so you don't have to worry." Just do things well at home. ”
"But ......"
"No, but!" My master interrupted me, "Remember everything I have said to you, remember the rules of our trade, and no matter who comes to you, you must remember ......."
"Don't you take the job with the surname Tang?" I looked up.
Master smiled, "No, you can go to this rule in the future!" ”
This is really beyond my expectations, could it be that what my master is going to do when he goes out has something to do with the Tang family?
"This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to ask, it's just a point, I went out this time, maybe it's a little long, don't be anxious to find me, even if someone tells you something, don't believe it easily, remember?"
I nodded, and the tears came down again, and I always felt that Master was explaining what was going on.
"Biaozi, this kid is kind-hearted, although he is a little clever and has a broken mouth, but he can rest assured that he will be a rare partner in your life in the future."
I couldn't help but laugh again, the fat man's mouth was indeed too broken, and when a sentence came out of his mouth, it could make people feel broken into several paragraphs and say it out, without a pause in between.
"I see!" I wiped my tears, a little embarrassed, I haven't cried after so many years with my master.
My master's eyes were full of warmth, and he looked at me, "Although we are halfway master and apprentice, we can be regarded as half father and son!" I am relieved that you can do this now! It's just that the temperament has to be sharpened again, think more about things, don't be impatient. Our profession, experience, can sometimes save your life! ”
I nodded, "Remember!" ”
"Okay, go, give our ancestors a pillar of incense, and in the future, when I am not there, I will remember to make incense on the fifteenth day of the first month of every month! Haven't you always wanted to read the ancient records in my study? In the future, when I have nothing to do, I will look through it more and learn more about our industry. ”
"Good!" I felt my nose sour again, he was clearly explaining what was going on, and he still didn't admit it, "Master, no matter how long you go, you will definitely come back in the end, right?" ”
Looking at my eyes full of hope, my master was stunned for a moment, did not speak for a long time, and finally smiled and nodded when he saw the tears that I could no longer hold back and run wildly.
"Well, I promise you, I'll definitely be back! Hurry up and wash it, such a big person, and crying nose, let the stone egg see it, I must laugh at you! ”
I was kicked out of the study by the master, and I ran to the courtyard with my head down to wash my face.
The more I washed, the more tears I felt on my face, I can't say why, but there was a force in my heart that couldn't stop against my tears.
"It's so cold this day, and I wash my face with cold water! Hurry up, rub it! Aunt Liu brought a towel over.
I took it, put the towel over my face, and thanked me sullenly.
"Thank me for what, I'm going to tell Shidan to get up and go to school!"
"I'll go!" I hurriedly said, returned the towel to Aunt Liu, and ran upstairs by myself.
I need to do something to distract myself.
But I pushed the door open, but I didn't see the stone egg, "Stone egg? "I thought he was in the bathroom.
"What time is it?" In the black coffin where I usually sleep, there was the sound of stone eggs in confusion.
