Chapter 103: Apprenticeship
Of course, not everyone can have this name, if a bad one provokes His Majesty's disgust, there are people who directly raid the family and exterminate the clan. Isn't the Zhong family, who was raided and exterminated before, a bloody example? If you really want to be famous in history, you have to touch your neck first, whether it is hard or not, whether you can withstand the three-inch thick machete on the execution ground.
So over the years, only one Mr. Song has succeeded. Of course, it is precisely because Mr. Song is not the kind of person who pursues fame and fortune that he will be respected by more and more Confucian scholars, which is almost a living banner and monument.
What does it mean to be his closed disciple, it is estimated that Ning Ning can't think of it at all. An invisible smile flashed in Wu Shan's eyes, but he knew it. It doesn't matter if the others don't understand, as long as he understands what it means. Ning Ning, you just need to keep moving forward according to your own mind, as for the other trivial things, we will naturally settle it for you.
In the festive and warm welcome of the You family, Ning Ning's apprenticeship was directly decided. Mr. Song was not a person who liked to be lively, but after all, the matter of apprenticeship was very solemn, so he didn't stop it. It's just that the You family only invited people they knew well, and as for other irrelevant ones, Mr. Song didn't ask.
Naturally, they would not disobey Mr. Song's intentions, so on the second day, only the You family, the people of the Wu family, Mrs. Song Salinduo, and the Sun County Order and the Lizheng family who came in a hurry.
Ning Ning just politely sent an invitation to Sun County Ling and Mrs. Song, but she didn't expect them to really come, especially the county order, who was a busy man. even took time out of their busy schedules to come to Qingshui Village, which surprised Ning Ning and them.
Sun Xian would rather be in a hurry to catch up enough. Originally, he could come or not, but when he saw the name of the object that Ning Ning wanted to apprentice with, the mellow tea in his mouth spurted out directly. What? It turned out to be Mr. Song Curtain Song? This is a famous Confucian in the whole country! Hasn't he been serving in Anshan Pass all the time? How did they get to Lin'an County? But the most important thing is how could he accept Ning Ning as a closed disciple? Although Sun Xianling always knew that Ning Ning was a very smart child, but when she and Mr. Song's names were lined up, Sun Xianling always had a sense of separation that did not conform to reality.
But in any case, after confirming that the news was true, Sun Xian Ling rushed over without stopping. Regardless of whether this old Mr. Song really wants to accept Ning Ning as a closed disciple, this master-apprentice relationship is enough for the entire northern realm to feel envied. Sun Xianling has children of appropriate age in his family, even if he can't get involved with Mr. Song this time, it's good to be familiar.
This is the picture of Sun Xianling coming in a hurry before.
It's just that Mr. Song is notoriously lonely and arrogant, and when facing strangers, he just barely gave a look, and hardly spoke. Sun Xianling had been prepared for this, so he didn't say anything, just looked at Mr. Song with envy and admiration. Although he only took the Tongjin Shi exam at the beginning, he was also a scholar. In the entire Dali Dynasty, there is no one who does not admire Mr. Song. As long as he can say a word to him at this time, Sun Xianling is already very happy.
However, the two grandchildren who were brought by Sun County's order, watching this group of people gather together, but they were obviously not dressed as nobles of the family, that is, people who looked like ordinary mountain village women, and they secretly showed a look of disapproval.
Of course, they have received a good education since childhood, and now they know that even gossip should avoid these people. So I found a secluded corner and whispered about it.
"I really don't know what my grandfather thinks, why he took us to the apprenticeship ceremony of a little girl. Haven't women always been stupid and unable to read and write? I don't know what the old gentleman is doing with all this effort? ”
"I don't know. Anyway, our sister is stupid to death, and I don't think that little girl can be so smart. Speaking of which, why does this old gentleman's name sound familiar? And why was our grandfather so respectful to him? None of the officials who came and went in the past heard anyone with the surname Song. ”
"Who knows? Maybe when you met, brother, I want to go back, it's not fun here, it's dirty. And these people speak with accents, and on the way I just came, I saw on the side of the road, and I couldn't breathe anymore. I'm going to have to eat here later, I can't imagine how hard it must be to eat here......"
The two children were discussing and complaining, not noticing that only a few pairs of angry eyes were staring in this direction just inside the wall, almost breathing fire.
These two people came to their house to eat and drink for nothing, and they didn't want to cook for them!
"Sister Dabao, I don't like them to say that. Since you dislike our family, don't come! Just pretended to be full of joy, it turned out that he thought so in his heart. What does this kind of person who is inconsistent with what he does care? ”
"Okay Erbao, don't be so angry. They are probably still young and don't know what etiquette is. ”
Although Dabao comforted her sister gently, she actually didn't feel good in her heart. It's just that at this time, seeing that her two younger sisters are showing an indignant look, she can't say it, so as not to add fuel to the fire, after all, today is a good day for Ningning, and it can't ruin everyone's happy mood now, right?
It's just that the meal made today was guided by Ning Ning, and they had never seen such a practice before. She couldn't help but drool when those novel dishes were made, but she wanted to see if these two golden and noble young men could eat the coarse tea and light rice of their villagers.
Here, Mr. Song has already taken Ning Ning to sacrifice to the god of Cangjie, and has offered pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, under the gaze of relatives and friends around him, Ning Ning solemnly bowed to Mr. Song to the end, and Mr. Song also returned the half-salute to her with a solemn expression. Immediately afterwards, Mr. Song took a brush stained with cinnabar from Wushan's hand, and gently touched Ning Ning's eyebrows, and Ning Ning's white skin suddenly had a small round red dot, which looked even more cute.
This point represents enlightenment and enlightenment, and from then on Ning Ning will be an enlightened primary school child. Immediately afterwards, You Sifang and Wu Anqi gave the six gifts to Mr. Song, and Mr. Song also solemnly accepted them. Then Ning Ning knelt down and kowtowed to Mr. Song three times, and handed it to Mr. Song with a cup of hot tea steadily.
After he drank it, Ning Ning followed Mr. Song and bowed to all the relatives and friends around him, and at this point, the apprenticeship ceremony was completely completed.
