Chapter 38: Your Uncle's Advice
Luo Li said: "Master, this matter is the fault of the apprentices, and it is not the business of the senior brothers. ”
Su Xian and Wen Yuancheng cast hot glances and asked Luo Li to shield them.
Su Yichen said seriously: "If the senior sister doesn't teach, the senior brother is at fault." It's been a long time since I've punished a few of you together as a teacher, so let's take the punishment together. ”
The three of them were embarrassed.
After a few people finished eating in the main hall, Luo Li got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and asked Su Yichen to hold them.
"Li'er, your injuries are not well, stay with the teacher to narrate, and your fourth senior brother can do these tasks. Su Yichen glanced at Wen Yuancheng casually, and then said to Su Xian: "Xian'er, you stay here to make tea, and want to drink your elixir tea for the teacher." ”
Luo Li glanced at the fourth senior brother next to him who was already petrified, and smiled helplessly.
Master, is it really good that you are so partial?
Su Xian gloated at Wen Yuancheng who was leaving, glad that he still had a good ability to make tea with one hand, and it was never his turn to do this dirty work. He got up and went to the side room to get the medicine box, took out a jade box, and when he opened it, the fragrance of tea overflowed.
This is the Wei Ghost Tea he just made a while ago, it is very precious, and it is rare for a few people to get together today and take it out to honor the master.
Luo Li obediently wiped the table and said pleasantly: "Oh yes, Master, Xiao Anu went to a grass hall to go to school, and it is estimated that he will come back in a while." ”
Su Yichen nodded, "The teacher knows, Li Er came to tell the teacher what progress has been made recently, can you continue to practice?"
"Li Er was recruited by King Mu a while ago, and recently she has been very busy preparing for the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting, so she learned the secret weapon with a guard in King Mu's mansion. Luo Li's voice became quieter and quieter.
"What's so good about learning hidden weapons? It's better to practice the Guiyuan swordsmanship well, and you'll have learned a lot of swordsmanship. Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Li Er is too lazy and causes trouble everywhere, how can she protect herself if she doesn't learn more skills?"
"Isn't there still a master and senior brothers in Li'er, Li'er is stupid, and Li Er can't learn those kung fu. Luo Li said coquettishly.
Su Yichen listened to her arrogance, and her thin lips curled, "Hehe, Li Er is second only to Min'er in terms of qualifications among the five apprentices of the master, don't you reach the realm of arrogance in one year with Yan stepping on Yunfei's ability? Back then, it took your senior brother ten years to cultivate such a realm." He thought for a moment, paused, and continued: "I thought about it for my teacher, it's not a way to get used to you like this, it's time to adopt your uncle's advice." ”
Su Xian was silently making tea next to him, and when he heard "Uncle Shi's suggestion", his shoulders couldn't help but tremble.
What else could this suggestion be? His uncles and ancestors thought she was too naughty, and after she was married, they began to look for a husband for Xiao Wu everywhere, thinking day and night about marrying her out of Guiyuan Villa so that she could be quiet.
From Luo Li and Lu, whenever there were people who went to the villa to apprentice, seek medicine, or visit, the uncles and ancestors of Qingluan Peak began to contact the people who entered the village to help her recruit husbands, down to the children of small schools in the rivers and lakes, to the sons of wealthy businessmen and magnates, and even the children of official eunuchs of appropriate age, all who could be introduced were introduced.
Guiyuan Villa was originally a hidden sect, but because the high-ranking people asked for a husband for her, they insisted on entrusting all the matchmakers who could be found within a radius of 100 miles.
It's a pity that every time someone really comes to the matchmaker, either Su Yichen blocks it, or Luo Li runs away, or it is more direct, Luo Li travels with Su Yichen.
In the past five years, there has not been a single matchmaker who has really seen Luo Li, and in the end, Luo Li not only belongs to the older leftover women in the world, but also because she avoids people, she is rumored to be unattractive, so that no one is willing to help anymore. It is said that the son of a wealthy merchant in Huangzhou wants to come to Guiyuan Villa to ask for relatives, but she has been hiding for half a year.
When Luo Li heard this, he was anxious, and immediately knelt down and dragged the hem of Su Yichen's clothes and begged: "Master, the apprentice doesn't marry, the apprentice doesn't want to find a husband, and the apprentice wants to follow the master for the rest ......of his life."
"What should I do when my senior brother is old, your senior brothers are also married, and you are alone?"
"Master has already broken through to the realm of transcendence, his face is eternal, and he will not grow old...... Master will live for a long time......" Luo Li looked at Su Yichen, since she apprenticed to the master for more than ten years, Master's appearance has not changed.
After the monk's cultivation breaks through the Seven Realms, his face will be eternal, and his longevity will also increase with his cultivation. Although it is not the same as the sky, it is not a problem to live for a thousand years. But as far as the eye can see, there are extremely few people on the coast of the East China Sea who can cultivate to the last three realms.
He frowned slightly, and said with a little disgust: "But Li'er refuses to cultivate, and I don't want to bring an old woman by my side in the future." ”
Luo Li: "......"
"Your second senior brother is not young anymore, he is not a cultivator, it's time to ask for a daughter-in-law. Now that both of you are unwilling to cultivate, it is also excellent to get together as a couple, form a couple, and walk through your life hand in hand, and you can rest assured as a teacher. ”
Luo Li hurriedly knelt down and said, "Master, have you forgotten that the apprentice is going to the Painting and Calligraphy Academy?" and the apprentice has already promised others that he will be the master of the Beihuang Hall this time, and the apprentice has no time to talk about marriage." ”
"Yes, Master, after the apprentice went to Yanzhou this time, he still wants to go to Yuzhou again, Uncle Shi has not found a few flavors of the herbs they explained, and there is no time to start a family. Su Xian echoed, he was also in a hurry, who knew that his master had brought the topic here again, and he hurriedly said: "Heaven and Earth Mingjian, the apprentice only has brother and sister affection for Xiao Wu, and there is no love for children at all, so don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum." ”
"Do you dare to refute it as a teacher?" Su Yichen scolded, and the two of them immediately wilted.
"For the teacher, you will have a year to be the master of the Beihuang Hall, so that Wen Hui's last wish can be fulfilled, and then he must resign and return to the mountain. If there is no progress in cultivation or marriage at the time of your birthday next year, you can call you the second senior brother and husband instead. Su Yichen didn't leave any room, calmly picked up a cup of elixir tea, and tasted it carefully.
Wen Yuancheng, who had just finished washing the dishes, was carrying a pot of hot water into the house, and as soon as he came in, he heard the explosive news. He shook his hand and sprinkled some hot water out.
Su Yichen glanced at it and asked, "Yuancheng, could it be that you have selfish intentions for Li'er?"
Wen Yuancheng swallowed slowly on weekdays, and today he said wittily: "Don't dare, don't dare, Master, you are too worried, the second senior brother is a talent, suave, and has excellent medical skills." The small five are all over the country, peerless, and the painting art is unparalleled, this is the perfect combination, and the occasional teacher chooses. ”
Two sharp eyes stabbed at Wen Yuancheng, eager to prick him with a hundred holes.
Wen Yuancheng just carried the kettle and added water to the teapot, and the son of Ruyu smiled, feeling nothing about their small movements.
Su Yichen nodded with satisfaction and savored the fragrant tea in his hand.
Luo Li knelt and moved forward two inches, and asked pitifully: "Then Master, if the apprentice cultivates with peace of mind, Master, you are not in a hurry to give Li Er a match?"
Su Yichen said meaningfully: "If you can get rid of distracting thoughts and rest assured in the Great Dao, breaking through the Seven Realms is just a few spring and autumn seasons for a child like you." At that time, the sun and the moon will be long, and the matter of finding a Taoist companion will not be in a hurry. He sighed lightly, I don't know how many times I said this to this girl, but I hope she will really listen to it this time.
He changed the subject and continued, "Okay, you're all fine now, go there and get the punishment." He gestured to the shade of a nearby tree.
Luo Li: "......"
Su Xian and Wen Yuancheng: "Yes......"
Su Xian saw that the master didn't say anything about the marriage, so he hurriedly walked to the shade of the tree and lifted the hem of his clothes elegantly, and knelt on the spot, while Luo Li was quick and hurriedly walked to the only remaining shade next to him and knelt down, Wen Yuancheng reacted the slowest, and there was only a place under the tree that was exposed to direct sunlight.
Wen Yuancheng straightened up and said slowly: "Master, the apprentice saw the two of them kneeling here, like silhouettes in pairs, the apprentice couldn't bear to destroy their chance to live together, is it okay for the apprentice to go to the side to receive the punishment?" he pointed to the shade of the tree not far away.
Su Yichen: "Okay." ”
The two of them under the tree gritted their teeth and glared at Wen Yuancheng not far away, and whispered privately for a while how to take him under the knife.
"I happen to have a newly developed itch powder, hum ......"
"Senior brother, give Xiao Wu a bottle too, and I will personally punish him in a while. ”
Su Yichen nodded, looking at the two of them whispering under the tree, talented and beautiful, indeed a good match.
Luo Li knelt for an hour and a half, and her master felt sorry for her new injury, called over and reprimanded her, and then asked her to go back to the house to rest. The man under the two trees was already sweating profusely, and there was nowhere to vent his depression.
The two knelt for another hour after that. Su Yichen stopped and asked the two to go back to rest.
