Xu Che's ears are quite good, and he can vaguely hear some of the conversation between the father and son of the Mu family at this moment, and he also knows that the father and son are arguing over the matter of teaching their martial arts, so he hurriedly walked up to the two of them, bowed deeply, and said, "Uncle Mu, Young Master Mu, please calm your anger and listen to me." ”

Mu Xun was angry, where would he listen, he snorted and didn't look over, Mu Beiting nodded and motioned for Xu Che to continue.

Xu Che said earnestly: "Thank you Uncle Mu and Young Master Mu for taking me in when I was down and giving me a way to live. But for now, I only want to work diligently to repay the two great favors, as for the practice of martial arts, firstly, I have no foundation, even if I am reluctant to practice, I am afraid that it will be difficult to become a grandiose, and secondly, I am not a person with great ambitions, even if I succeed in martial arts, it is of little use. I hope you two won't quarrel over my martial arts practice anymore. ”

Mu Beiting moved his eyes to look at Xu Che, and thought: "This Xu kid is smart and mellow, so let's wait for him to talk about this matter in the future, so as not to quarrel and make jokes here." He nodded immediately and said, "Since that's the case, then let's not mention this matter, I'll take you and Brother Chen to meet Master Liu, the foreman." He turned to Mu Xun and said, "I left breakfast for you in the dining room, so don't go quickly." ”

At this time, Mu Xun's anger subsided slightly, and he began to feel that Shicai's words were inappropriate, and he had no gentlemanly demeanor, and he was extremely annoyed in his heart, and suddenly heard his father talking to him, and hurriedly answered yes, and ran away with his head down.

Mu Beiting looked at Mu Xun's departing back, shook his head helplessly and sighed, and then took Xu Che and Chen Hao to the door of the workshop on the west side of the backyard. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure rush out of the workshop.

The man was about 50 years old, with an ordinary appearance, a thin figure, full of gray hair, wearing a gray shirt and a pair of black and white plain cloth shoes.

Mu Beiting also introduced in a timely manner: "This is my workshop manager, Master Liu. ”

Master Liu bowed slightly, began to squint his eyes at Xu Che and Chen Hao, and after a while, he suddenly grinned: "These two babies are very energetic, and they must have a lot of strength, so it's just right to help me right now!"

Mu Beiting also laughed heartily and said: "It's good to your heart, you have to practice them well, and the craft of making tea is not allowed to hide your secrets, you must answer all questions." ”

Master Liu's face suddenly changed, his eyes puffed up, and he asked angrily: "As the saying goes: 'Church apprentices, starve masters.'" ', isn't Mu Yemo disgusted with the old man, I wasted food, and wanted to drive me away?"

Mu Beiting laughed again, then reached out and patted Master Liu's shoulder, and said: "As far as your old man is suspicious, you said that you are alone, and you have nothing to worry about, where can you go? ”

When Master Liu heard this, he grinned again, his expression was extremely happy, and he was obviously quite satisfied with Mu Beiting's promise.

Seeing this, Xu Che thought to himself: "The relationship between Uncle Mu and his subordinates is so harmonious, and there is no shelf at all, which is really rare." ”

Mu Beiting got back to business, introduced the three of them respectively, and said at the end: "Master Liu, the two of them will be arranged by you, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll go first." After speaking, he looked at Xu Che and said, "You two will follow Master Liu's arrangement to do things, if you need anything else, you can come back to me in the evening." ”

After the three of them sent Mu Beiting away, Master Liu began to stare at Xu Che up and down, with a complicated look on his face.

Xu Che was uncomfortable staring at him, so he asked softly, "Master Liu, what's wrong with me?"

Master Liu shook his head and retracted his gaze, and sighed: "Mu Ye treats you differently, you tell me honestly, what is the relationship between you and Mu Ye?"

Xu Che smiled bitterly: "Uncle Mu and I are just new acquaintances, and we haven't seen each other before, but he treats me like this... Oh, by the way, maybe it's because I look like him in the same old way. ”

Master Liu suddenly realized: "I see... But now that you're working under me, you have to work hard, no matter what your identity is, and if you dare to cheat with me, I won't spare me. ”

Xu Che patted his chest and promised: "Please also rest assured Master Liu, my brothers and sisters will spare no effort and will definitely obey your arrangement, and they will never play tricks." ”

Master Liu nodded, and behind him, he walked to the workshop first, and said as he walked, "You two come with me." ”

Xu Che and Chen Hao hurriedly chased after them and followed them into the workshop.

Mu Beiting returned to the main hall from the backyard, called a servant to him, and instructed: "You go to the treasury to get some high-quality tea leaves, and then send them over after packaging, I will use them later." ”

The servant took the order and left, Mu Beiting thought about it, stopped the servant's footsteps, and continued: "These teas are to be used for birthday celebrations, and they need to be cleaned up auspiciously. ”

The servant hesitated for a moment and asked, "Master, although our tea is good, it is inevitable that it will be used for birthday celebrations... It's inevitably a little lighter, do you think you can buy another one?"

Mu Beiting said with a smile: "The courtesy is light, it's just a matter of talking about your heart, you don't need to spend a lot of time, you just do it." ”

The servant saw that Mu Beiting had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more, turned around and left to prepare.

At this time, another servant had already made this year's new tea and sent it to the hall, Mu Beiting raised his glass and took a sip, tasted it for a long time, and said in his heart: "Well, this year is really a good year, this new tea is not fishy or greasy, rare, rare." Just as he was about to drink again, Mu Xun's call suddenly came from outside the door, and then he saw a figure flashing, and Mu Xun had already entered the door.

Mu Beiting raised his eyes and smiled: "Xun'er, come and taste this year's new tea, it tastes excellent." As he spoke, he poured tea into the empty cup on the table.

Mu Xun stepped forward quickly, raised his glass and drank it all, then smacked his mouth and tasted it, and praised: "Not bad, not bad." Really good tea. ”

Mu Beiting laughed and said: "How can you tell the good from the bad if you drink like you, it's really a mouthful." ”

Mu Xun put down the cup and said, "For me, as long as it can quench your thirst, it is good tea, and as for the taste of tea, that's your business." ”

Mu Beiting shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Let you learn the way of a gentleman, you have learned very little, and your chivalrous spirit is sharp." ”

Mu Xun's complexion changed suddenly, and he said astringently: "Dad, I lost my temper before, and I hope you don't have to take it to heart." ”

Mu Beiting knew that he was talking about the previous debate about Xu Che's martial arts, and immediately relieved: "Your mind is known to your father, and being a father is just a whim, and I didn't take into account your feelings, and I shouldn't have it, this matter... Don't mention it again. ”

Mu Xun pondered for a moment, as if he was making some kind of decision, and after a while, his eyes sank, and he said slowly: "If you really have this intention, it is okay to teach him martial arts, but in terms of seniority in the future, I have to be a senior brother!"

Mu Beiting's eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh? So, you figured it out?"

Mu Xun nodded, and said: "You are a peerless martial artist, you are the founder of the sect, and you should recruit disciples, it was indeed me who was narrow-minded before." ”

Mu Beiting waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't want to talk nonsense, you must know that all the characters who have the ability to open the mountain and establish a sect, all of them have majestic momentum and outstanding martial arts, how can I be comparable to this little bit of Taoism? But you can reflect on yourself, but it makes me feel very relieved." ”
