The latter sat on a stool, his hands on his cheeks, apparently wandering into the world.

"What's wrong, Zao'er?"

He had already looked at Chen: "Mother, do you say that the apprentice can not do it halfway?" ”

Chen frowned: "What do you say?" It's not easy to be an apprentice, and it's not easy to get in, but when you send an apprentice in at home, you're going to a craft, so why don't you do it halfway? Before that, it was all delayed, and he came out of the master's house halfway, and if he wanted to learn other crafts in the future, his reputation would not be good, and there was no master who wanted him! ”

He Zao dug his mouth: "It can't be so serious, right?" ”

It's all about integrity!

"Who did you ask?" Chen looked at her suspiciously.

He had already said slowly: "It's Brother Liu Hui, I think it's very hard for him to be an apprentice, and he is not at home all year round!" ”

"Your aunt of the Liu family is happy to death, Liu Hui can go to be an apprentice, why would he stop doing it halfway, you shouldn't be blind!"

Chen raised his chin towards the cabinet: "Go and help me take out the jujubes." ”

Hao San's sister-in-law also said: "That is, in order to let her second son go to be an apprentice, his family has spent a lot of money, and he has to come to the door to send a gift during the New Year's holidays. ”

"However, I heard that Brother Liu Hui, even if they finish their studies, they can't do it alone in the first few years, and they have to help the master make money, and then they can't open a wine shop in the town, otherwise they will rob the master's business!"

He Zao was a little angry: "What kind of treatment is this, why are you so willing to let him be this apprentice!" ”

Chen looked at her helplessly: "It's all like this, not only for us here, but also for the capital of Fucheng, all the apprentices in the world have to endure hardships before they can come to the bitter end!" ”

He Zao opened his mouth to say something, but Chen interrupted her: "It's in, we don't care about other people's affairs, Zao'er, you go and ask others what kind of dishes Li Gongzi likes to eat, let's make something rare for others." Ask if you want to drink again, there is still a little wine left in our house, and there should be a little bit of Jinhua wine left, so you have to let Dashan go to the cellar to take it out! ”

He Zao was helpless and turned around.

When she came out of the upper room, she realized that Chen's treatment of Li Hongwei seemed to be unusual, if before, how could she be willing to give this Jinhua wine to others, it was only when Gu Yunche came to the door that she would take it out, and if she drank one cup or two glasses, she put it away again, and the others, even He Laosan, were not allowed to drink it.

She squinted, thoughtful.

At lunchtime, the question of apprenticeship was discussed again at the dinner table.

He Laosan's attitude is exactly the same as Chen's, thinking that he has already learned halfway, and it would be a pity to give up halfway.

Li Hongfu has a different opinion: "It is very hard to be an apprentice, and some people are not selected, so they are specially looking for some apprentices to use at the moment, squeezing for more than ten years, and destroying people's bodies!" ”

He Zao agreed with this, and immediately nodded: "It's not a mile." ”

"If you learn other people's crafts, then you have to work hard, otherwise you will learn the skills of supporting other people's families for no reason, and it will be too cheap!" He Laosan had a different opinion.

His opinion is the general majority opinion of this era.

And those who have become apprentices have suffered a lot when they are young, and when they accept apprentices again, they will have to get back the oppression they received at the beginning, so they will treat their apprentices twice as badly, which forms a vicious circle.

Li Hongyu asked He Zao: "Second girl, why did you suddenly remember the apprentice?" ”

He Zao shook his head: "It's okay." ”

Sibao thought of Liu Hui and guessed that she couldn't see that the other party was too hard.

The topic shifted to the Li family's business, Li Hongfu smiled, his face was full of lightness: "The family has been much better these days, Songhua eggs are the only one on our side, as soon as there is a stock, they are all crazy, they have earned a lot on the last market day of light years ago, and my family has also breathed a sigh of relief!" ”

Speaking of this, his face was straight: "Third uncle, I have heard some rumors about your family at home, I don't know what is going on, my father also asked me to ask what is going on, is there a big impact?" ”

He glanced at the people in the room and shook his head: "Such rumors are amazing, some people just specialize in those bad things!" Your family is weak, small, and dangerous! ”

He Laosan smiled bitterly and said: "No one can tell what is good, but it caused this disaster, but in my family, those young people will know when they come, but it is not worth much, and we will know that our family does not have those hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!" Besides, the Han family also said that they would send us some men! ”

This is something that Li Hongyu did not expect. His eyes flashed, and then he smiled meaningfully: "It seems that the relationship between the third uncle's family and the nobles is not ordinary!" ”

"Everywhere, it is thanks to the nobles who can afford it!" He Laosan said modestly.

Ah Che listened to them talking, and poured himself a glass of Jinhua wine, and thought that when he drank that time, he deliberately did not pour it for He Zao, and the other party sulked for a long time, so he wanted to pour a glass for the other party.

However, as soon as his hand was raised, he thought of the decision he had made that day, his eyelashes flashed, and the hand holding the cup slowly put it down again!

He took the glass and tasted it slowly.

He Zao didn't pay attention to what was happening on the table, only looked at Li Hongfu and then at Ah Che.

She couldn't figure out what was the reason why their little He family was also affected by the Han family!

Originally, I wanted to take some time to ask Ah Che, but now that the two of them are having a fight, this idea has been dispelled.

"Li Gongzi, what are the rumors over there?" She asked, feigning curiosity.

Li Hongfu smiled: "Second girl...... In the future, let's call each other as brothers and sisters, so the call of the young master and the girl seems too raw! ”

"Then, in the future, Chun'er, Sibao, you will be commensurate with brother and sister, Hongfu is a good young man! I know a lot, the four treasures, the seven treasures, you have to ask others for advice in the future! ”

"Where, where, the third uncle praised it! I'm not as good as the four ...... Four Treasures and Seven Treasures, one is hardworking and diligent, the other is smart and clever, and the family is also doing such a big business, and in two years, they will surpass me! ”

Li Hongfu was busy with modesty.

The Four Treasures and the Seven Treasures also stood up and saluted each other in a respectful manner, saying "advice".

Li Hongwei also hurriedly stood up and returned the salute.

After going back and forth like this, He Zao was impatient, and asked again: "Brother Li, what are the rumors going on there?" ”

It's rude for her to ask people like this.

Chen glanced at her helplessly, thinking that he was still too anxious.

Li Hongwei smiled very well: "It's nothing, that is, your family is developed, and the Songhua eggs made by your own family have become tribute, and the first reward in the palace alone is hundreds of thousands of taels of silver...... There are even more legends, saying that you sleep on gold and silver......"
