Chapter 16: Departure

Chen Mo pushed open the door of the house with a thank you gift, and He Maguan was smoking a dry cigarette comfortably in the house, and when he saw him coming in, Chen Mo instinctively got up to greet him.

If he had been placed before, he would definitely not have been like this, but now Chen Mo is General Sun's personal soldier, and his status is much higher than him.

Although Chen Mo still respected him, he didn't dare not take Chen Mo to heart.

"Master He, you can just sit down, and I'm not an outsider when I'm here." When Chen Mo saw him get up, he hurriedly beckoned him to sit down.

"I asked you to take care of you during this time in our military camp, and I knew that you always love sweets, so I bought you some sugar snacks."

He laid out the gifts he was carrying on the table one by one, and finally untied the paper bag containing a pound of tobacco.

"I also bought you a pound of good tobacco, I don't know whether it's good or bad, how does it taste if you taste it."

He Ma nodded, knocked off the ash from the cigarette stick, and refilled the pot for himself.

"It tastes good." He looked satisfied, but there was some pity in his heart.

How does he think Chen Mo thinks it is good, it is a pity that he can't be his own disciple.

"As soon as I leave this time, I guess it's hard to come back to see you again. In fact, Ding Bao is quite good, but his temperament is too straightforward, and he can't do things with his brains.

Don't blame him for selling horse manure from you, with his brain, he really can't think of this. Chen Mo persuaded him.

He can actually see that since He Ma Guan knew that Ding Bao was secretly selling horse manure from him and Ma Cai, he has always been a little angry with Ding Bao.

This is actually normal, Ma Cai just hid it from him, after all, Ma Cai didn't come for a long time, and Ding Bao followed him for more than two years but also hid from him, which is what makes him angry.

He and Ma Cai left, Ding Bao still had to stay to feed the horses, for the sake of Ding Bao having helped him, Chen Mo planned to persuade He Ma Guan to let him not keep this matter at ease.

Chief Homer took a long puff of dry tobacco and did not say much.

He actually knew that Chen Mo was telling the truth, Ding Bao was straightforward, and he couldn't think of selling horse manure alone.

"Take care of him when you get old, and he won't have any trouble in his life." Chen Mo persuaded him.

"I know what you said, I'll take care of him more in the future." He Ma thought for a long time and slowly spoke.

Originally, he planned to let Chen Mo take over his class, but now it is impossible.

The two new soldiers, whom he had seen before, knew what they were.

It's okay to do some coolie chores, and it is impossible to expect them to learn to feed the horses to feed themselves in their old age.

Although Ding Bao said that he had made mistakes before, he had followed him for almost three years, and he learned some of his own craftsmanship secretly.

And the person is acceptable, and the straight character is always better than the bad character.

"Ding Bao! Get the hell out of here! He exhaled a puff of smoke, got up and stood in front of the window, and shouted out of the house.

Ding Bao walked quickly, like a frightened quail, and walked into the house with his head shrunk.

"Today, for Chen Mo's sake of interceding with you, I won't pursue the matter of stealing and selling horse manure from me and Ma Cai before." He Ma Guan spoke with an old face.

Ding Bao's face was full of puzzlement and doubt, hasn't this matter been in the past a long time ago! Why is Master still training himself for this matter today?

"Kneel down and kowtow, I will take you as an apprentice today!" He Ma Guan said again.

Although Ding Bao didn't know why he was suddenly reprimanded, he still hurriedly knelt down after hearing this.

If you can really learn from Officer Home, then you can learn his horse breeding skills, and you can also be a horse officer in the barracks in the future.

Being a horse official is a pretty job, and he earns a lot of money every month.

This can be seen just by the treatment of He Maguan's bowl of white sugar water every day.

"I will help you testify today, and I have accepted this disciple." He Maguan looked at Chen Modao.

The reason why he suddenly wanted to accept Ding Bao as a disciple was because of this.

Chen Mo is a good person, and he knows how to repay his kindness, he asked him to help be a witness to this apprentice, and if his disciple is disobedient and unfilial in the future, he can ask Chen Mo to help clean up the portal.

"Okay." Chen Mo nodded in agreement and did not refuse the matter.

The apprenticeship ceremony is not complicated, in front of Chen Mo, Ding Bao kowtowed to He Ma Guan and served tea, and He Ma Guan drank tea, even if he accepted this disciple.

"Go back and pack up the horse brush, and I'll teach you to brush the horse tomorrow." He Ma Guan spoke, since he accepted this disciple, he had to start passing on some real things.

As for how to teach and how much to teach, it depends on Ding Bao's next performance.

"Hey!" Ding Bao's tone couldn't hide his excitement, and he couldn't wait to jump three feet high.

"." He Ma Guan was a little hated that iron could not become steel, and waved his hand to drive him away.

"I'll go back and pack some things first." Chen Mo also spoke.

After speaking, he walked out of the barracks and saw Ding Bao standing outside the door.

"Brother Mo, thank you so much this time, but I can't help you with anything." Ding Bao thanked him seriously, he wasn't very smart, but he wasn't stupid.

He knew that He Ma Guan was willing to accept him as an apprentice, and there must be a reason for Chen Mo.

He really wanted to thank Chen Mo, but he really couldn't thank him, he really couldn't come up with anything to thank Chen Mo.

"If you want to thank me, buy a catty of pig's head meat for me to eat when you turn around, and don't forget to make up a gift for your master." Chen Mo smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, I'll go back." Ding Bao agreed and prepared to do as Chen Mo instructed.

After explaining to him, Chen Mo walked back to his barracks and began to pack up briefly.

He didn't have many things, the bed and bedding didn't belong to him, and all he had to take with him was a few clothes and some bits and pieces.

In the evening, Ma Cai hurried back to the barracks.

Ding Bao took advantage of the gap between going out to sell dung and brought back two catties of pig's head meat and an apprenticeship gift for He Ma Guan to Chen Mo.

After accepting the apprenticeship ceremony, when He Ma Guan looked at his newly accepted disciple again, it was obviously much more pleasing to the eye.

It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is, what he wants is Ding Bao's heart.

After resting in the barracks for the night, Chen Mo woke up early the next day to freshen up, walked out of the barracks, and began to move his muscles and bones.

If the color is bright today, it is just now, and when it is converted to the time before I cross, it is about five o'clock.

But at this time, there is no entertainment at night, and most people go to bed very early, so they wake up very early.

There were already a few soldiers who had passed the selection on the school grounds, and after another two or three minutes, the rest of the soldiers also arrived one after another.

Since they are willing to select, they more or less want to get out of the status quo and at least have the heart to be motivated, so they all regard this matter as extremely important.

"It's okay for everyone to stand, let's find a place to rest and wait." Chen Mo shouted, and he found a fairly clean place to sit down.

After waiting for about half an hour, when the hour was approaching, you could see the dust splashed by the horses galloping in the distance.

Mo Hu was the first to come on horseback, and the two personal soldiers who had come with him were following him, leading the other soldiers to move forward slowly.

"Fifth brother." Seeing him coming, Chen Mo took the initiative to step forward and greet him.

"You turn around and follow me, and the others follow the group." Mo Hu dismounted and explained.
