"Turtledove pot, vine green, white folded root......" Zhong Yuanxiu muttered the names of several medicinal materials back and forth in his mouth, and tried to find the real thing.

The diligent and studious man kept scanning the shelves of several rows of drying medicinal herbs, and he was stunned to find several other medicinal herbs except for the vine green and white folded roots that he found at the beginning.

This made Zhong Yuanxiu, who had just been burned, feel devastated, as if he had been splashed with a basin of cold water.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the passionate man was defeated, completely devoid of the excitement he had at first.

He sat down on a small bench with a gloomy face and fell silent.

"Hahahaha, young man, it's not going to work so soon!" Dr. Li took a sip of wine and said with a laugh, full of ridicule.

Uh-huh?

The corners of Zhong Yuanxiu's mouth twitched slightly after hearing Dr. Li's words, and then a smile appeared.

"Uncle Li!"

Zhong Yuanxiu quickly trotted two steps and a sliding shovel, and knelt directly next to the bench where Dr. Li was sitting.

This move startled Dr. Li, and the wine bowl in his hand was almost unstable.

"Boy Zhong, what are you doing like this, you can't help it, get up, get up!" Doctor Li hurriedly put down the wine bowl in his hand and was about to help Zhong Yuanxiu up.

Seeing the outstretched hands, Zhong Yuanxiu leaned back, avoiding Dr. Li's support.

Seeing this, Doctor Li was very puzzled, his eyes were full of doubts, and then he squinted at Zhong Yuanxiu and chuckled: "Say, what bad idea do you have in your stomach." ”

"Actually, it's nothing, I just want to worship Uncle Li as a master, and I hope Uncle Li will give him a chance!" Zhong Yuanxiu told the truth.

"It's really nothing good, we've only known each other for three days, why do you think I'll teach you? Give me a reason. Doctor Li sat on a stool and looked down at Zhong Yuanxiu and asked.

"I can run errands for Uncle Li, and I will never eat and drink for nothing!" Zhong Yuanxiu tentatively said a reason.

"No way!" Dr. Li closed his eyes and shook his head.

"I can beat Uncle Li's shoulders and pinch his back, serve tea and pour water!" Zhong Yuanxiu gave the second reason.

"No way!" Dr. Li continued to close his eyes and shake his head.

"One day, I will do my best to protect the safety of Uncle Li and Yinyin, and I will not let you be bullied!" Zhong Yuanxiu's eyes froze, and his eyes looked straight at Dr. Li.

Hearing this, Dr. Li, whose eyes were closed, opened his eyes and asked lightly: "Where did you learn martial arts, and how can you be sure that you will be able to achieve success?" ”

When Zhong Yuanxiu said those words, Dr. Li seemed to think of something, but he was not sure.

"No matter where I learn martial arts, it won't affect my determination to protect Uncle Li and Yinyin!" Zhong Yuanxiu didn't want to explain, so he turned a corner and said.

"As for the question of whether it can be successful, the kid is not sure.

But I guess with my ingenuity, it shouldn't be a big problem! ”

Zhong Yuanxiu added another sentence, and the taste of narcissism was uncontrollably emanated.

The father and daughter opened their lips slightly, and rolled their eyes at the same time, this cheek was the thickest they had ever seen in their lives!

"If you refuse to explain, I won't force it, seeing that you are sensitive, dare to think and dare to do, I will reluctantly make it difficult...... Reluctantly accepted you as an apprentice. Dr. Li said with a pretended pause.

Indeed, at the moment when Doctor Li paused to say that, Zhong Yuanxiu's heart was pounding, for fear that he would change his mind after a hesitation.

"Hehe, it's finally been a fool." Zhong Yuanxiu said with a smile in his heart, he didn't just want to be an apprentice.

"Kowtow!" When Zhong Yuanxiu was happy, Dr. Li looked at Zhong Yuanxiu who was kneeling on the ground seriously and said.

"Master is above, Yuan Xiu has kowtowed to you!"

Zhong Yuanxiu was also clever, and reacted in an instant, his body, which was already kneeling on the ground, bent over, fell to the ground with both hands, and slammed his head on the ground.

"Kowtow again."

As soon as he looked up and got up after kowtowing, he heard Dr. Li's serious voice in his ears again.

Immediately kowtow to the ground again and reset after three seconds.

"I'm sure I'll have to kowtow again." Zhong Yuanxiu thought in his heart.

Sure enough, the sound of a summoning kowtow came into my ears again.

"Three kowtows!" Finally, Dr. Li's voice rose a few points.

Immediately, Zhong Yuanxiu's forehead made intimate contact with the ground for the third time, and he completed the final kowtow, and a layer of soil ash was stained on his forehead.

"After the salute, get up!"

The kowtow apprenticeship has ended, and Dr. Li helped Zhong Yuanxiu, who was kneeling on the ground, to help him up, but this time he honestly did not avoid it.

"Hee-hee!" Li Yinyin next to him couldn't help but chuckle.

Zhong Yuanxiu was attracted by this laughter, and saw Li Yinyin looking at him with a gentle face, and he was stunned for a while.

Knock knock! Dr. Li gently tapped the table with his knuckles, and pulled back Zhong Yuanxiu, who was watching Li Yinyin distracted.

"Oh oh, master, apprentice toasts your old man!" Zhong Yuanxiu grabbed a large bowl and poured wine, turned his face down, bowed slightly and handed it to the master.

Dr. Li took it and drank it all, put the wine bowl on the table, and said in a serious voice:

"From now on, you will be my Li Zhen's apprentice, I hope you will study hard every day and don't live up to my expectations of you."

"Master rest assured, the apprentice will not let you down!" Zhong Yuan practiced a disciple's rite and replied firmly.

Doctor Li patted Zhong Yuanxiu on the shoulder, nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad!" But it's time for you to go wash the dishes. ”

Zhong Yuanxiu said "I want it", quickly cleaned up the dining table, and Li Yinyin also followed to help, looking so warm.

There is a well dug "by home" not far from the kitchen, and Zhong Yuanxiu, who grew up in the countryside, also knows how to get water, so he threw the wooden bucket down skillfully.

With a "plop", the barrel fell on the surface of the water in response, causing a circle of ripples, emitting an ethereal sound towards the wellhead.

This kind of voice, Zhong Yuanxiu has not heard it for a long time.

Since I started junior high school, everything in my hometown has changed rapidly, and new things have been replaced by old things.

The barrel in the well did not sink after falling into the water, but floated on the surface.

When Zhong Yuanxiu saw this well rope, the upward barrel body was immediately overturned by the force on the rope, and the well water flowed in, faster and faster, and it was filled with a bucket of water in a few blinks of an eye.

Seeing that the barrel was full, Zhong Yuanxiu exchanged his hands and lifted it up, only fifty or sixty catties, there was no problem at all.

Holding a bucket full of water in his right hand, he walked to the side of the wooden basin in a few steps, and poured half a bucket of water into the wooden basin.

Take a rag, grab a bowl and brush it like a cloud, and look like it doesn't go smoothly.

In less than a minute, all the dishes and chopsticks were removed from the oil and water, and they were simply rinsed with clean water.

…

Bell! Bell!

In a bamboo grove not far from Sunset Village, a young man with a sharp axe is cutting bamboo.

There are several types of bamboo in the bamboo forest, such as large round bamboo, green willow bamboo, and fine bamboo, which look very similar to some bamboos in Zhong Yuanxiu's hometown, but the names are different.

"Brother Zhong, that piece of bamboo can't be cut! It was planted by Liu Qiang's family. Li Yinyin, who was segmenting the bamboo, shouted.

Zhong Yuanxiu, who was about to swing an axe to cut down, stopped when he heard this, but unfortunately for a while, these large and straight large round bamboos are good choices for use as pillars or beams.

But it's not Dr. Li's family, so you can only let it go.

Those bamboos were also hanging by a thread just now, and if it weren't for Li Yinyin's words, they would have fallen today.

After three hours of busy work, the sky was dark, Zhong Yuanxiu and Li Yinyin moved the cut bamboo back to the outside of the courtyard.

Of course, most of the bamboo is carried by Li Yinyin.

Hundreds of large round bamboos and hundreds of green willow bamboos, as for the fine bamboos, there are too many to count.

Zhong Yuanxiu, who had been busy for most of the day, didn't feel so tired, and he felt that he could go out and run a few kilometers.

According to his physical fitness, such a situation should not have occurred, but such a situation has appeared again.

At this moment, Zhong Yuanxiu, who was still full of physical energy and energy, had a lot of self-obsession in his heart, thinking that he was a celestial and human, and his appearance was too outstanding.

In a good mood, I decided to cook myself tonight and bring a few modern dishes to the father and daughter.

Li Yinyin lit the fire, and Zhong Yuanxiu took the spoon.

Dr. Li's family is not very wealthy, and no matter how good the craftsmanship is, it has to be simple.

I made a cucumber scrambled egg, the original idea was tomato scrambled eggs, but there is no tomato in this world, there are only a few eggs, helpless, so I can only slaughter a cucumber to make do.

The second course, stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts.

As soon as he saw the bacon on the beam, Zhong Yuanxiu made up his mind that he must find a chance to eat some, and this will not be a chance.

took a bamboo fork and easily removed the old bacon from the beam.

Li Yinyin, who was sitting next to the stove and burning the fire, wanted to stop it, which her family kept for the New Year.

But she hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and she was hungry when she saw bacon.

So he whispered to Zhong Yuanxiu: "Brother Zhong, cut a little less, I'm afraid that my father will be angry." ”

"Don't worry, I'm in control."

Zhong Yuanxiu said with a confident smile, and the next second was chopped with a knife, and a third of the five-pound old bacon was cut off.

In an instant, Li Yinyin's eyes widened, and this Brother Zhong's proportions were inevitably too big.

She's angry and funny, and I'll see how Daddy reacts later.

After cutting the bacon, Zhong Yuanxiu hung the rest back on the beam.

The next step is to brush, wash, cut, and fry a meal, and soon a large bowl of garlic sprouts fried meat is presented in front of Li Yinyin's eyes.

The smell pulled Dr. Li in from the outside.

"Yuan Xiu, what did you do? So fragrant? Dr. Li, who was still sorting out the medicinal herbs outside just now, wiped the corners of his lips and asked with a smile.

After accepting Zhong Yuanxiu as an apprentice, his title was changed, and he was no longer called a boy.

"Oh, master, it's garlic sprouts fried bacon." Zhong Yuanxiu turned his head and replied with a smile.

"Oh, fried bacon with garlic sprouts, what? Bacon? Dr. Li was stunned.

The old face immediately darkened, and he looked up at the beams above the kitchen, and the old bacon was indeed cut off in a large piece.

This thing is kept for the New Year's tooth sacrifice, and I have pressed it down many times I want to eat it.

That's good, this evil obstacle has been cut off so much in just two days.

The little old man didn't hold back, picked up the broom next to him and pumped it at Zhong Yuanxiu.

Now Dr. Li, as Zhong Yuanxiu's master, it is reasonable to care for his apprentices.

I saw an old man and a young man, one willing to fight and the other unwilling to suffer, chasing from the kitchen to the yard, constantly circling around the medicine field and medicine shelf.

Dr. Li is old, and he hasn't caught up with the young Zhong Yuanxiu after chasing for a long time.

"Okay, you come here, I won't beat you, you go and bring the food..."

Zhong Yuanxiu, who was still dodging, stopped and looked at Dr. Li suspiciously, for fear of being caught when he passed by.

There is a way that the master's fate is difficult to disobey, and Zhong Yuanxiu had no choice but to walk to the kitchen boldly, staring at Dr. Li with the rest of his eyes.

Sure enough, when Dr. Li saw Zhong Yuanxiu approaching, the corners of his mouth hooked, grabbed Zhong Yuanxiu's arm and pulled him over, and then greeted Zhong Yuanxiu with a broom.

"Poof!"

Li Yinyin couldn't help laughing, covering her mouth and snickering in the kitchen.

Zhong Yuanxiu, who was arrested, couldn't break free, after all, the master's strength was more than twice as strong as him, so he had to jump around while being beaten.

When Dr. Li felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, the hand holding the broom was put down.

"The teacher will teach you the first lesson today, the rivers and lakes are sinister!" Dr. Li snorted and said, and put the broom back in its place after speaking.

"Follow the master's teachings!" Zhong Yuanxiu replied with a smile on his face and respectfully, and he was not angry.

He knew that Dr. Li didn't use any strength at all, but he was angry and wanted to vent.

Hehe, who let him fry the old bacon that people are reluctant to eat.

"Little slippery, ready to eat." Doctor Li narrowed his eyes and said helplessly.

…

"It smells so good! I didn't expect Yuan Xiu's craftsmanship to be so good, half of my level. Dr. Li's mouth was full of oil, and he praised Zhong Yuanxiu's craftsmanship while eating.

If you have seen it all, it means that the guest officer can still appreciate this kind of slow-burning cultivation theory, why don't you invest in it? (shy)
